    I have the Blackout hands and they look great in my opinion. You can get them cheaper via Aliexpress. They have wrist articulation and they can even hold weapons or other objects. They really work for my display.

    Getting back into the topic. I also consider LED lights unnecessary, but I think if Shockwave Lab continue releasing LED kits is because maybe in China people want them. I would wait to have SS Shockwave in my hands to see if the rubber cannon is so bad. If so, I may replace it with this, but I will never use the lights.

    Neat lil kit, but SS Shockwave has way too mush rubbery parts for my liking.  So Pass!

    No they at least make the figure look a lot better then before so they’re worth it for that least. However I will say that besides the plastic quality the joints for the fingers are a bit loose at least on my copy.

    Nah the blackout hands are great. Made him feel like a new figure. Especially since I sprayed them a lighter gray.

    Anyway, I like the idea of this but to me (as others have said) the cannon is the least egregious of the issues with the figure. Sounds like I'm being negative but I love the figure. However that rubber sword is embarrassing. I'd much rather have that be replaced. And as @Yaujta said having some blast effects for this guy would be ideal.

    Okay cool, I’ll look into them.
    Agreed about Shockwave too. It’d be cool to get a set to replace all the rubber parts, but the ones that need replaced the most are the hand and especially the blade. That blade is just complete garbage, it barely stays in and it’s so flimsy.
