    So I bought myself a black Quakeblast for my unbirthday, and I'm very pleased. MP Laserwave was so dissapointing to me. This guy is so mych better, enough so that a purple one is now in my "to buy" queue, when I can afford it - Black-wave will then move over to my "Unaligned" shelf. (For now he's hanging out on the Decepticons shelf and Laserwave us packing up for a trip to ebay...)

    Anyway, some pics:

    Sorry for the sideways ones, I'm not sure how to rotate a pic on my tablet.

    And with all my black recolours:

    He's boss, the price is right, and he's easy to get. What's not to love?

    You guys were the ones I got my purple one from... couldn't be happier with it! (though I was sad I didn't get an extra hand)

    I wasn't sure which version of Shockwave I wanted at first, but after watching some YT reviews, I settled on Quakeblast and I defnitely think I made the right decision.

    Has anyone tried using the light up LED effect on Quakeblast? If you have, what kind of batteries did you buy?

    The wait is killing me. Took Baba almost a week to ship mine and it's still sitting in China. :(  I've waited over a year, I suppose another week or so to arrive isn't too bad.

    Can anyone confirm the quakeblast reissue still comes with the mini Megatron gun? I saw the reissue doesn't come with a second set of hands but the answers arounds meg's mini gun were a little more vague. I have a clear on preorder but I may just bite the bullet and look for a purple reissue if it comes with the mini megatron gun too.

    I'm not aware that any version of quakeblast or quakewave came with a mini Megatron?

    My Quakeblast (no solid hands version) definitely didn't come with a mini Megatron.

    Mine also was the second pressing with no solid-color hand, definitely no Megs.

    Thanks for the info all. The accessory I was referencing was discussed on p213 (sorry if mini meg was misleading), I assumed this was the same piece as in pics for preorder for the clear version still pending.

    Can't confirm the reissue, but I bought the black version late 2017 on e-bay (from baba) and it did have the mini Megatron gun.

    Then it seems like cloud 9 has an issue with consistency. I've heard of people getting extra hands, and now this. I got neither.

    Interesting... I've had one or two of the purple QB's plus the black QB and none came with a Megatron gun.

    Not that I care at all as I also have collection of the stupid little Megatron guns. Some are diecast, some are plastic, some are slightly bigger, some smaller - useless accessory at this point.

    Getting back to QB - he is an awesome figure. Great price and great figure - there's not much not to love...
