We only saw the face when he contacted Megatron, so I don't know if his body changed.

 

That's cool!  

I theoretized the breathing pipe/chinstrap thing being his ears before, guess I was right...

And... if his head lowers, that explains the leaked 'mozaic' pic of Shockwave where his eye is at the top of his head. It was made from his Autobot form, and his eye is in the middle when he's a Con. I also bet that after this charade is over, we'll see him in his classic purple colors.

Magmatron, could you understand Shockwave's lines? What kind of a character was he, a 'normal' kind stereotypical autobot or was there any feeling that he's an unemotional machine just pretending to have feelings? Was there any mechanical tone to his voice, like Soundwaves?

And once again, thanks for bringing us such great news!

 

Couldn't understand his lines, but he seemed timid and BB seemed to trust him with the secret about the megatron's message, but that was just an act to gain trust, its the most logical way to enter the ranks !

 

The first pix kind of looks like Straxus.

 

Oh by the way, the episode's actiony scene was the laser-cannon-rampage right? How awesome was it? Did Shockwave actualy help his "autobuddies" to look like he was good?

 

Sigh... he always had an impervious hide. It's in his G1 Tech Specs.

Only now in Animated, he has to turn it on, like a super-power or something.

So, wait. Who was the traitor, "Longarm"/Shockwave? Or was it the wasp guy?

 

Thanks, that's reassuring! I waited an eternity to see the Marvel version of Shockwave get into a cartoon... the old G1 cartoon version was pretty much Soundwave in purple minus the voice...

Swarlock - True enough! STraxus! Now that'd be cool if he appeared. Then again, Megatron already stole his 'head in a jar' act.  

 

From what I got of the description, it was Shockwave, but Waspy was framed for it, or something like that. If his head transforms from disguise to his normal self like I think it does, it'll look kinda short and fat. Almost like Lugnut's head withought a mouth, and with two ear thingy's. Sounds interesting, though I do hope it looks better in the actual show than i'm currently imagining it as. I have a question, where does his cannon go in bot-mode? I've heard he turns into a Armada Megatron-like looking tank, but I never did hear where his tank-mode cannon when while in bot-mode. Here's hoping we get a cool looking Voyager class toy for Shockwave.

 

Doesn't the gray tank-looking guy (Shockwave from what is being said) remind anyone of War Within Megatron?

Looking good. TF: Animated 4-evah!!!

 

I wonder If we will get two toys A shockwave and a long arm. Or will there pe sum punch counter punch double robot thing. I know he will have his g1 colours due to it was mentioned in a hasbro panell.

 

Yeah, that's the way I read it. Sounds like Wasp is the red haring, but that Longarm/Shockwave is the actual traitor.

So does this mean Wasp will be an Autobot?

 

I doubt a long arm toy, maybe as a gimmick, but not the actually a toy only.

 

I'm thinking BB's friend is Blurr the color scheme looks like the Armada,Energon,Cybertron toys

But how did the Elite guard make it back to Cybertron if the cons took their gizmo?

 

It was just a transmitter for communication purposes.

 

that was just their long-range communications antenna

 

This episode is why Bulkhead said "I don't think he remembers us." to BB about the tick er... Sentinel Prime, in The Elite Gaurd.
