Mastermind Creations has updated their Facebook page with another new announcement in their forthcoming Steelian Scientist line. Along with “Doctrinus Scope” and “Physicus Tempest“, we have another scientist to add to the group; Cyclops aka Shockwave!
Not much else is known as of yet, other than his size which clocks in at 6.5 inches tall for bot mode. But keep an eye on our third party forum and the front page for info on preorders and price.

I'd love to see this still happen. Shockwave as a Sixchanger just makes sense as his personal upgrade.
UNICRON-WMD
Last thing I heard was this is real and will come out.

The Generations line includes Classics, FOC, and soon will contain movie toys, but that doesn't mean Classics is FOC or movie.
MegaHavok
At this point classics/generations is a hodgepodge of classics/Wfc/foc/idw styled characters
Scaleface
FOC =/= Classics

With the classic series being a wild mix of aesthetics I really don't see a problem using Beast Hunters or FoC Shocky as a Classics Shockwave. Or even Energon Shocky.
Gotta say, though: after Fantoys said they'd downsize their MP to voyager size, I will accept nothing less. That's the classics Shockwave I want.
BulletSponge
Huh?
There are two Dinobots already, with planet-x making the rest.

I still can't believe we don't have classics sized Shockwave and Dinobots. I'm sad this won't be seeing the light of day

I'd consider this, if they actually made it. I'm using BH Shockwave for the moment as "Classics Shockwave"… I like FOC Shockie a lot, but he's too tiny. Tempted to attempt to customize my old Energon Shockblast, too, but this would make it easier (the only thing I dislike about the mockup is the twin blaster-barrels at the end of the gun mode barrel…looks weird).
I'd also possibly go for their not-Brainstorm version of this, too It looked good!

Reading is everyone's friend.
Hothouse Prime
I'd buy this in a heartbeat. FOC Shockwave isn't cutting it at the moment…
Zavien
Would love the shockwave cuz I don't have quakewave
Scaleface
Plus, Quakewave is slavishly G1, where Steelian Scientist Cyclops is an update. It's like the difference between Generations Leader Jetfire and Daca Toys Kronos. They fit in different places in the collection.
ORIO
Yup.
I'd totally still buy this.
Scaleface
Cyclops Steelian Scientist Classics size, and Quakewave is MP size. Not the same thing to a collector.
motorthing
After "everyone" declared they didn't want this because of Quakewave I'm sure MMC filed this under "don't bother"……….but I would buy one if it ever does get off theCAD files because it doesn't seem like FT will bother to give us that downscale Quakewave either.
Cyclops ASS indeed……..
And I want Quickswitch too.

IDW Perceptor or Jhiaxus would both be fantastic choices for MMC to tackle at some point. Perceptor would compliment M.I.'s Demolition Crue nicely. M.I. seems reluctant to tackle any bigger bots for the time being so that could be a perfect relationship. MMC makes the big bots like Overlord, Perceptor and Pyro. M.I. tackles the smaller bots like Rotorstorm and Guzzle. Jhiaxus would be a perfect companion piece to Seraph Prominion. So many options. M.I./MMC are the go to toy companies for IDW styling imo. I'd like to see them continue filling that niche.
Scaleface
I'd buy it if they did make a Cyclops version of the toy because.
1. I like a nice Voyager sized Shockwave for my Classics collection.
2. I like the idea of an upgraded Shockwave who has become a multichanger with jet, gun, car, beast, etc modes.

I wish they'd have gone through with Perceptor. This method of teasing their project was infinitely lame because there are characters from this mould I'd have preferred over Sixswitch / Sixknight.
Still, I think everything's on hold until Feral Rex is done. The Femmebots are,s o i can't see why this wouldn't be.
