    As the Decepticons' military operations commander, Shockwave's power is second only to Megatron, and even that is disputed. His actions are carried out with the cold, brutal clarity and perfection one would expect of a purely mechanical being-his way is not that of blood lust, like so many other Decepticons, but rather that of a scientist attempting to solve a problem. And that problem is: how can he use his abilities to most effectively eliminate the greatest number of enemies? Unfortunately for the Autobots, it is rare that Shockwave does not find an answer.
    Unlike most early Transformers Shockwave was not modified into an Earthly form, and retains his Cybertron alternate mode-a 35-foot-long ray gun. He possesses the power of flight in both modes, and commands the totality of the electromagnetic spectrum allowing him to emit beams of energy in a wide variety of forms. His high energy output makes him particularly fuel inefficient, but radioactive fuel sources stored in the reactor in his chest can help Shockwave to overcome this problem. Although his logical brain center is usually an advantage, human adversaries often pose more of a difficulty to Shockwave, as more intuitive and emotional thought processes often confound him.
    While the animated series established Shockwave as fanatically loyal to Megatron, Shockwave's original bio and most fiction since have described him as coldly and patiently looking for ways to overthrow Megatron, not for personal power (as Starscream would) but simply because it was logical for him to do so. Shockwave concluded that he should rule so that no emotion should prevent the Decepticons from conquering the universe. This was retained in most comic books, where Shockwave became leader of the Decepticons.
    Unusually for a 1985 (second year) toy, Shockwave was part of Transformers fiction from the first year, appearing in both the original cartoon pilot and 4-issue comic book miniseries.

    Tenia 5 años cuando mis padres y yo sufrimos un accidente de tráfico muy serio, nos pasamos muchos meses en el hospital, y recuerdo este transformers como el juguete más chulo del mundo, desgraciadamente no lo tengo y hoy lo vi aquí de casualidad, para mucha gente será curioso, para coleccionistas útil, para mi ha sido un viaje al pasado en momentos muy duros pero más llevaderos gracias a un gran regalo, desde España un saludo.😭

    Hey, Mitch, I think if you can unscrew his arm and back, you can push the hose in like it should be. If I'm thinking right, the large parts at the ends of the hose are supposed to be inside the body and arm to prevent it from popping out like this ones doing.

    I had a knock-off Ghosbusters style proton pack toy as a kid in the mid 80s. Had a white back-pack you filled with water that fed to a white non-transformable Shockwave squirt gun! Want to say the gun did have the light and sound effects.
    Closest I ever got as a kid to owning one!

    I wish I could get a video of my 3 1/2 year old son "reviewing" his transformers- he always gets shy when he suspects I'm filming. It cracks me up because I hear him say a lot of the things I hear you say. Thank you for doing your reviews and keeping them family friendly. I know that isn't something anyone might think of when making a transformers toy review, but I appreciate it!

    A classmate of mine had this toy when I was in elementary school. It was awesome. When it was in both gun and robot mode, it looked just like in the cartoon and it made noise with a light when fired!. I wanted it back then.

    I remember when I was a little kid in the early 80s, there was a store called Bi-Way, and it had a knock off brand or maybe a Takara Shockwave loose in the toy section. Bi-Way wasn't a high quality place, and it was sitting loose for a couple months. I used to play with it whenever I was brought there with my mother. It was always a great toy, a great character. You just knew he could kick most anybody's ass.

    @Flamboyant-randomist 7 років тому +1

    I had a cheapo knockoff of Shockwave back in the day, except he was grey and had a different trigger design which I STILL can't believe they got away with back then! The problem? In robot mode it protruded from his groin in a way that can really only be described as Phallic!

    Thanks for the cool review. He was one of my favs when I was young, still is in fact. I read here that some were looking for this guy. I got mine coming from TF Kingdom. There are quite a few left at $89 each which I actually thought was fair. Be warned though; if your outside the US you'll be charged a $35 flat Int. S&H fee. It isn't bad if you order a bunch of items at once though. These guys have Repro sticker sheets too and for many GIJOE vehicles and sets as well! Thanks.

    Nice! I appreciate when you review a KO that you call it out for being a KO. Some other reviewers on UA-cam do not do that. That said, I was actually after a KO for the main reason of having a "new" copy of this guy. I purchased a super expensive original not too long ago and was not very happy with the condition. The KO seems to fit the bill with what I am looking for. A fresh new original Shockwave. Great stuff.

    Mitch great review. I just bought this figure because I didn't see the point in dropping the money for Quake Wave. Is it possible for a 3rd party to make a KO figure, in original package, include decepticon stickers, and call it Shockwave? Isn't that copyright infringement? Most third parties change the name of the figure and have the need for you to get repro labels
