    Will he have a proper alt mode, or will his bot mode just fold into a random shape like the attempts at BB Soundwave so far?

    ShowZ listing says it turns into a gun. Whether that's a convincing gun or a "gun" remains to be seen.

    Wonder if they'll take a bash at Soundwave and give us a slightly better alt-mode and WAAAAAAAY chunkier legs?

    neat. i hope this isn't a turd or something. keep the trickle of larger scaled bumblebee stuff coming please, i doubt yolopark or threezero will get very far making all the designs. almost 3 years later and between them we've got a handful of bumblebee's, 2-5 optimii depending on if you count prototypes (i don't know if either of them has a habit of releasing prototypes and then just cancelling them silently, but i'm not hopeful), a blitzwing, and a soundwave. yolopark teased a shockwave proto in this scale but without any updates since june, and since their flagship bumblebee release still isn't out after 2 years i doubt they'll maintain enough steam to get much out.

    Aww sweet. But kinda wish third party to stop giving shockwave colorless eyes. It looks kinda dead. Just hoping for a third "artillery mode" for a wee bit realism

    Sweet! Just PO'd.
    Silently wishing Threezero releases a Shockwave before I need to pay off this one...

    Anyone think the eyes on this prototype is a bit on the feminine side....with lashes?

    Looks nice. A red-coloured eye/lens would make the head look more striking I believe.

    I thought that too but at least everything else looks amazing. I, too, am hoping threezero gets to this guy next. And I agree he needs a big red eye.

    Bing Toys? Honestly never heard of them. Have they released anything before? Or is this another case of BMB using a different company name?

    also are his ankles on ball joints? From the pictures I just can’t help but feel like they might be quite fragile?? Hopefully I’m proven wrong

    looks pretty alright. don't know how accurate it is but at least its legs are more detailed than bmb soundwave if only slightly. he better turn into a space gun or at least a galvatron like artillery canon. the problem with so many bb movie toys is that the design budget for that part of the movie wasn't very big so its likely nobody fleshed out teh designs of what they were supposed to transform into.

    this shockwave design has a bit of fan of the sun dougram going on with it IMO.

    Then again...zoomed in on the chest and ankles...etc, I guess this is an actual figure shot and not cgi...then dangz! What do you guys think? If this isn't based on Yolo is/was there a 3a/0 version?

    This is a nice looking robot mode, but it's definitely giving me "transforms into vaguely gun shaped block" vibe. I can't see anything that would hint to a transformation into a G1 style shockwave gun, and after that soundwave we got I wouldn't be surprised if this is similar. I guess we'll see when we get more product shots but I don't really have my hopes up for a nice looking alt mode.
