Yep, I had him for 2 days before knowing they pulled out!  

 

Thanks for that. He's a great rendition for sure...

...but still so rounded compared to most of the CHUG figures.

Same way I think the Prime Wheeljack was much better than the CHUG one, but just didn't fit in with all the others...

 

I thought that the first time I saw this figure.

 

I like this figure from the knees up. But those shins and feet.... man. The feet look like a ballerina extending her toe and the shins are stylized V shapes pointing down to them.

IMO FOC Shockwave is better but this figure would be great after a shin and foot swap/ mod.

 

I think his feet look kinda like hooves actually... Like a raging bull might have.

 

Sorry to ask the idiot question but how do you get the ammo chain linked from the body to the gun?

 

Plug the "chain" into the rectangle hole in the back of his cannon.

 

This is probably my favourite looking Beast Hunters toy

 

I'm not a fan of the Beast Hunters toys, but I will get Shockwave.

 

Yes, it plugs right in there without too much force, but stays in nicely once it is in there. Great part about that is it is one of the rear treads - when you transform it the tread unfurls and becomes the hose. Simple, but oh-so devilishly effective.

 

I'm kinda disappointed by the hose. Don't get me wrong, the gimmick is damn awesome, but I wish it was heavier and floppier because if I leave it in his gun, I worry it'll get into a really strange shape.

 

Damn I need this figure so bad.

 

The weight might have been an issue for the arm staying upright though - if it were heavier the "arm out in front" stuff wouldn't take as well.

Valid concern though, I tucked the hose away back in its tread when I put him up on my display. I figure Shocky will be toward the back because of his size so I won't see it, and that way it saves the tread.

 

Just love those big red'ish claws of Shocky's. Raaaaaaoooow!!

Great pics, thanks!!!!!!! 

 

Cool, he's bigger than Megatron

 

Looks good, but i'm gonna wait for the Takara version

 

Can't wait to display him with Henkei Megatron and the CHUG Decepticon team.
