    Has anyone figured out Shockwave's color scheme, yet?

    Sixshot from Superlink/Energon, who was a Laserwave/Shockblast/Shockwave recolor in that series/toyline.

    You know, much as I do love the fact that the repurposing makes it easy to add SG characters to your display, it does sorta seem easy/lazy to me when used too much.

    No, that's not it. Sixshot is black and yellow. Shockwave is gray, tan, and blue.

    I actually prefer new color schemes utilizing the original mold more often than not. Blaster is one of my favorite "no toy representation" characters we introduced. I think there is some art out there somewhere?

    Yup! Here

    No, SG Shockwave is tan/yellow/gold with blue highlights. Goldbug?

    Maybe just Shockblast with a color invert?

    We report Transformers news and information on our frontpage. Seeing as this is both news and information, we reported it on the frontpage. If we were serving to drive members to TFCC, you'd see a big "NOT A MEMBER? JOIN TODAY!" like you do at other sites I won't mention by name.

    Are you a member of the TFCC? Honestly, it's none of my concern. I only care that you're a member HERE, and what I can do to help keep you a member here. Sorry that you feel that this wasn't worthy of being posted as news, but seeing as it is an official story from the official club, it is indeed canon for that "universe".

    More or less, that's what was done, essentially falling back on the color wheel and swapping colors for their opposite. Shockwave didn't really have a comparable 'counterpart' in the G1 pantheon that really stood out. From there it was simply a matter of adding the right touches and details, like the collar.

    That said, if someone wanted to do a custom, Energon Sixshot would be a good base.
