Did you like this update? Which Shockwave design is your personal favourite? Only comment if it's a logical one.
Prime and idw are peak
Shockwave is my favorite Transformer
Prime is the most logical choice
I love the prime design, the high moon studio design from the games, and the one from the war for cybertron trilogy
Prime. Bulky, purple, massive cannon, red monoeye, David Sobolov's deep and menacing voice... this is the perfect Shockwave, hands-down.
For me it's Animated, but I'm bias towards the show.
Prime Shockwave being in the top tier is only... logical.
My same thoughts as well.
I find this statement...logical
I find your statement and your reply… logical
I find this opinion…logical.
Correctimundo
Shockwave's design is one of those looks where they struck gold from the original design that they didn't really need to give him a drastic redesign often, although in rare cases such as Transformers Animated the new design still looked great.
I think it says a lot about how good Shockwave's design is when only a single one of his (non-SG) incarnations deviates from the purple body and arm cannon, and that design eventually adopted the purple coloration. In the words of JobbytheHong "It's a design so good that not even Michael Bay could fuck it up!"
For the record, I actually do like Bayverse, I just love that joke.
@@Mothbean I find your conclusion hardly... logical. But not impossible! I recommend a cortical psychic patch on Michael Bay, to know for sure that he has some hidden secrets on his neural net! Secrets... that all the fanbase didn't know from the start.
TFP Shockwave is peak Shockwave design and character
One thing I've always loved about Bayverse Shockwave is how his chest looks like a ribcage.
The top surgery was a success
Prime Shockwave was not only extremely smart, he was ripped to boot. He was so smart in fact that when someone else finally displayed intelligence even CLOSE to equaling his, he was visually surprised and had to take a second to compose himself (when Ratchet was examining the unstable cybermatter in Synthesis). He didn't fuck around with monologues or personal feelings; he got results, and damn were those results ever impressive. It took Starscream of all characters to finally get him to show any emotion, and that was after Starscream left him for scrap against the Autobots in his secret lab ("I am tempted to force you to share my _perception_ of things.")
that line was so cool, i cant even
I would pay absurd amounts of money to hear David Sobolov say "The geek shall inherit the earth" in Shockwave's voice
"I am tempted to force you to share my perception of things"
Such a raw goddamn line, delivered so terrifyingly. Prime is king shockwave
I love how unique Shockwave's design is compared to the rest of the cast. I feel like his designs always go hard.
That's because Shockwave is Magnum!
No, obviously, Shockwave's design is more unique than the rest of the cast.
Fr
Shockwave is so iconic that in most continuities, he still has his monoboob
“Females , I though they were extinct “
Redditor Shockwave
*SHOCKWAVE:* So, the Female Autobots still exist...
@@theolabroers9614 Projection at its finest.
Shockwave: Well I’ve never made something extinct before. Naw who am I kidding? I wiped out 4 whole species last week.
Shockwave hasn’t interacted with a woman in so long he thought they were extinct. He really needs to get out more.
Shockwave being called the most loyal detecticon by Megatron, while Soundwave and Lugnut mumbling angrily at the corner. Sorry I but I couldn't resist
Meanwhile Starscream being smug as hell
Kinda strange that Corey Burton didn't reprise his role as Shockeave in WFC/FOc games but he did in...a commercial? But still Steve Blum does a great job voicing him
Starscream voiced....Starscream voiced Shockwave!? 😂
Steve Blum always brings it to his roles.
Steve Blum is a madman
@@philipjohnston5822Well Shockwave in both G1 and Animated is also Spike.
Shockwave is easily among the most iconic decepticons with Megatron,Starscream and Soundwave.
Him having the singular eye really sells the sociopathic personality when everyone else has a more human face and one of his hands being a weapon shows that he willing to resort to violence at a moment’s notice.
Miserable glitches is actually a good tier name.
Prime Shockwave was by far his best incarnation.
By far the most imposing character of that series and with his personality, absolutely frightening.
Shockwave in that show was so good, he genuinely look like a second "Evil Mastermind" character.
I'd even go as far to say that he outclasses Megatron in that aspect.
God I love Prime Shockwave so much, the fact he's a total unit with a cannon arm and a deep voice ? Mmm chef's kiss.
I really like Shockblast think of him as Shockwave psychopath brother
I love how Shockwave is the only decepticon that Megatron truly fears
He is definitely the only one who has the ways and sometimes, the reasons to try to kill him. Shockwave is no joke.
That list was LOGICAL!
I think my favorite incarnations of Shockwave are his Cyberverse, Earthspark, Bumblebee Movie, Fall of Cybertron game, and G1. But if I had to choose one, I think it would have to be his Cyberverse incarnation, a perfect balance from his G1 incarnation with some parts borrowed from other media while adding something new at the same time.
You forgot animated
@@Kirby666. I only mentioned those, which are my favorite. Animated didn't really got my attention.
Not prime?
@calmsquirrel7124 Well, his Prime design looks great, but it didn't really attract me either. Love his tank mode, love the performance David Sobolov has done, but it's just . . . I don't know, I just don't really feel it, I'm not saying I hate it, it's just not my favorite.
Tfp Shockwave is the best. His entrance was so badass
I really like the Dark of the Moon design but my favourite is Prime
"I find your reasoning... logical."
Shockwave is my favorite Transformer in general. He has such a clean look that can be translated in almost every medium, and one of my favorite tropes is the "loyal evil lieutenant." I just love how out of all of Megatron's minions, he's the only one that truly feels like his proper second-in-command.
Soundwave seething in the corner rn
@@LordCrate-du8zmSoundwave more like Megatron's eyes and ears, which still makes him important enough for Decepticons regime. I'm sure, Megatron appreciate both Soundwave and Shockwave in the same level.
@@GotaGB
One of them is loyal to death to Megatron.
The other just tolerates Megatron enough because he allows him to do his experiments, and defeating Megatron is too much of a bother.
Human: why are you so sophisticated?
Shockwave: LOGIC!!!!!!!!
Logical Shockwave. Never ever stops with his logic.
I find it ironic that in cyber verse where they had earth like vehicle modes even on cybertron, shockwave’s alt mode was anything but earth like
I got to meet David Sobolov at NYCC last October and he was an awesome guy, he can switch right into the Shockwave voice like it's nothing.
DotM Shockwave, Transformers Prime Shockwave, and Fall of Cybertron Shockwave are my favorites. I especially love the Space Limo Jet that Fall of Cybertron has for his alt mode.
I personally like the bayverse shockwave. He may not look like him, but hes the most feared decepticon in that movie, not to mention he was large as hell.
Im glad to see someone else likes it
I like it too. Demon robot.
In terms of the combined design and personality, I'd say the Prime Shockwave is my favourite 😊
You can never go wrong with Shockwave
Thanks for taking my suggestions of My True Colours, Logical.
Wait a minute, shockwave taking over as leader of the Decepticons? Starscream would like to have a word.
Shockwave be like: You argument is illogical.
While Starscream is not exactly incompetent, Shockwave is definitely the better choice when it comes to taking leadership
@@davisdf3064 true
Shockwave in Earthspark is voiced by Troy Baker, who previously in Transformers voiced the main villain in RID 2015, Steeljaw. And you kinda hear the similarities.
He also voiced jazz in the wfc/foc games
Troy Baker voiced transformers in the Cybertron games.
@@leithaziz2716 That's what I said
Shockwave in my AU is consistently loyal to himself and his scientific endeavors alone. He only works with others if it advances his own goals. He made a deal that he would serve Megatron, so long as he can benefit from their partnership.
That is essentially him in Transformers Prime and i the IDW comics, he only tolerates Megatron because he allows him to experiment and to kill him would be such a bother.
Out of all the Decepticons, Shockwave is the one that could kill Megatron if he just wished to.
@@davisdf3064 My Shockwave couldn't kill Megatron. Not without a lot of time and resources he doesn't have. Plus, Soundwave would be a genuine problem. Not that he'd get the chance to anyway.
Transformers animated and the 80s movie were my introductions to him.
The Prime Shockwave design is easily my favorite i just love how menacing he looks in that series. Im also a big fan of his WFC/FOC, G1, Devestation and Animated design as well.
Your argument…
…
…is logical.
Prime Shockwave is my favourite just for the giant cannon he sports being quite different from most other designs and the ammo belt into it is also unique. The rest of the tierlist is logical.
Hey, it's nice that you know about Hatsune Miku now, we need more female decepticons and a counterpart to Soundwave would be fun.
I'm with you on that one, Animated Shockwave has my favorite design !
It's so good!
@@ComodinCam I also liked the unique twists brought to his character
*LUGNUT:* NO! _I_ am the most faithful!
13:57 goosebumps every on that entrance
*STARSCREAM:* He... lives...?!?
When you see that brute of a body, mixed with a supercomputer of a mind, you know he's the goat
Shockwaves voice actor in the bumblebee movie was COOKING🔥🔥
With Tfa Shockwave's grey and teal colour scheme it could work as his pre war colors with the idw senator design.
Always loved prime shockwave. Dark of the moon is great aswell but i really love that weird triple changer one. Shockwave as a anti aircraft gun is fun
My favorite Shockwave design would be his Prime design. I prefer Shockwave having tank modes rather than aerial and blaster modes. Honorable mentions would include his Bumblebee movie, Cyberverse, and DotM designs. I like Wheeljack and Shockwave’s dynamic in Cyberverse before the war and during the Parley episode as they were both inventors and buds. Could you do a Blackarachnia designs ranking?
I personally find all of Shockwaves designs Badass! He and Tital Wave always reminded me of the Quake 2 or 4 Tank Units! However if he's gonna continue to have what sounds like a British Accent, then I would prefer a Cockney Style one instead.
Shockwave the Goat
To be honest, my personal favorites to transformers prime one, because it’s a cool character, and I find his presence to be intimidating and going with his voice actor too.
Yay I can finally watch this. It was private yesterday
My favorite thing about Prime Shockwave is that he always stays in his Cybertronian form, even on Earth, which made him that more intimidating.
Somehow, none of the designs from the fairly recent Transformers Go! Go! manga series was considered for Comodin Cam’s rankings. Sure, all of them are based on toys that released alongside it, but I think the cutesy stylization makes some of them distinct, like Bumblebee, Arcee, Shockwave, the Beast Wars cast, and many others. At the very least, they deserve a mention.
Transformers Prime Shockwave is perfection. I also loved Animated, Fall of Cybertron, DOTM admittedly too.
I think my favorite Shockwave design is the TFP one followed closely by the Cyberverse one. The TFP one looks super intimidating but the Cyberverse one looks just awesome
Transformers IDW 2005 "Everything is Shockwave's fault"
Amazing video 👍🏻
"Shockwave is the most loyal decepticon"
Soundwave:crying in a corner
Destroy The Launch Pad Let None Escape
I love how in the classic transformers series everyone is unhinged. TF is best when it doesn't take itself seriously.
The fact any version of shockwave went "Lying lying liar!"
Honestly for me it’s the DOTM design or the Bumblebee one, love the broader frame of the DOTM with the thinner cannon. Agree with you on the purple for it, and the Bumblebee is just solid
Shockwave is one of those characters that you can always count on having a rad design.
Cyclops has been my favorite since I saw it for the first time. Absolute heat
My favorite is Transformers Prime.
I also like G1 Marvel, G1 animation, Masterpiece, Devastation, Legends, Animated purple version, Shattered Glass Animated variant, Senator, IDW main design, Spotlight, Hearts of Steel, Cloud, Forged to Fight, Heavy Metal, Pigwave, 2007 home console version, Dark of the Moon prequel comic, Cyberverse, Evergreen, Metal Earth Legend, Siege leader, EarthSpark, Reactivate, and MitGas.
I keep looking at the design and think “Shouldn’t this guy be able to transform into a muscle car with that kind of chest?”
And i’ve yet to see it surprisingly.
I honestly love the tfp shockwave, he scared me as a kid
How damn convenient is it that I got Core BB Shockwave fucking yesterday. The timing...
Only logical!
TFP in the highest tier? Most logical.
Shockwave, one of my favorite Decepticons, Smart as he is deadly.
I will let Shockwave know that a human appreciates his looks . He will be happy
honestly, I love the design for shockwave in energon. then again i am a sucker for unicron trilogy designs.
I've never heard anyone say they don't like the dark of the moon shockwave I always hear how awesome that design is
Hearing Corey Burton voice Bayverse Shockwave was something I could imagine and this 19:03 makes me wish he took the offer! It to me actually works somehow I can't explain it.
'If it ain't broke, don't fix it'
-Shockwave, probably
For those who don't know shockwave is like an evil spok from star trek so really I like it when shockwave sounds like he has no soul which a lot of versions did well
I can agree 100% with your list. But to me my top 3 favourites are the 1: Bumblebee movie cause it’s literally the G1 version in live action (minus the alt-mode), 2: the Cybertron video game cause it was a very retro design, and 3: 2010 Prime cause I grew up with the show and design.
I think, and this is just me, Shockwave in general almost always has a cool design so they are all good in general. Even the "bad" ones would be good for most figures, we as fans just have higher expectations for old One Eye. Energon is probably the weakest, but even that one isn't terrible, only the toy struggles with that static arm, and his rather nothing alt modes. Is it a satellite, or mobile artilley....sure, if you say so😅.
Shockwave, my absolute favourite Transformer and the inspiration of my Tau battlesuits
Shockwave's definitely one of my favorites so I was really excited to see this! One thing about the fanart section tho (although my bad if it was already mentioned elsewhere), that Miku Soundwave was actually designed by Primekelly; Tooie just drew it for an art style challenge.
one of my faves. and agreed on animated!!! excellent video my friend
Thank you dude! Means a lot! 😎
Gonna be honest, the Bee movie had him in for five seconds and I want all the more of him. Seriously if we get more of the bumblebee sequel without the beast wars stuff I want to see more of him in that design.
TFG (2007 Bayverse game acronym) Shockwave is actually my favourite, i wonder if theyll make him in the gamer edition series toyline
Absolute favourites are Prime and HighMoon Shockwave
Bot modes and alt modes are just amazing for cybertronian forms
Been waiting for this day.
Prime Shockwave is the perfect Shockwave for me. Intimidating design, but being a certified genius, with little to no emotion. It's brilliant. And his clear respect for ratchet in their interactions made it better. I'm glad they brought that back for him and wheeljack in cyberverse. My favorite trope has always been established enemies having moments of bonding as friends, it'll never last, but it's a nice show
7:25 I did one of these customs too, except the cannon on mine was salvaged from the torso of an old Zoid Hellrunner, with shoulder parts from a robot building kit...
7:45 He may not be the same Shockwave, but that lad (which was redecoed from Armada Terradive) was actually a really nice Minicon.
9:15 The conversion from Longarm to Shockwave is _ingenious._ Punch/Counterpunch was a clever idea in the first place, but each character was basically the other facing backwards. But to take on the character of Longarm, Shockwave makes a host of small changes, that added up to a _completely_ different form. Yes, nominally, his arms, hips and neck compress down. But there are so many other details, like his folding thigh guards, shoulder pylons, fold-down horns, rotating legs, new face, his shoulders pulling out and down to take on a broader, squatter form, and the thumbs of his claws rotating to form a whole new pair of hands. This all results and a character with an entirely different _shape_ to his original form, not just a few details. Plus he even has two different _alt-modes,_ from Shockwave's H-tank and its long cannon, to Longarm's high-rise crane mode. Like, if you look at them side-by-side, the similarities are obvious, but they're also different enough that unless he's already aroused someone's suspicions, no-one would think to make the connection...
24:49
Never knew i needed catboy shockwave in my life until now
11:54 I love how he looks like a Covenant Scarab from the Halo games
I remember being on a message board with the customizer Jin Saotome 7:06 He did good work, but was so full of himself.
I like the idea of prime
Mostly due to the logic of being able to do combat and heavy lifting, leading to him being buff, rather than trusting drones
Unrelated to the design, which is also great if not original in the slightest, I love Shockwave’s theme in Devastation. It sounds so triumphant and heroic, which fit his perspective of being Cybertron’s guardian even though in reality Shockwave is one of the most evil Decepticons.
Didn’t you post this yesterday?
You should do a tier list for the insecticons, I mean, you have to do each one separately, one for Bomshell, Kickback, and Shrapnel each, I think doing them all together would cause a problem, they should each have their own lists.
Shockwave is always amazing but prime is something even sexier and menacing
god i love shockwave, easily the scariest decepticon ever
If they gave him a car mode to match the original look of him then he should be a 1969 Mercury cougar.
Just noticed this is a reupload, I wonder what the change was
UA-cam blocked it for no reason other than they like to bully smaller creators for fun
The Touch song being replaced with Energon at the start lol
Dark of the Moon Shockwave is by far the best imo. The intuitiveness and originality that Michael Bay put into Shockwave is just so epic and amazing. I also love how he somewhat stuck to the source material in giving Shockwave a massive canon and his iconic one eye.
My favorite design gotta be Transformers Prime's one (with animated coming close second).
He just takes the stereotypical "skinny mad scientist" stereotype and throws it out of the window, by giving him the body of a Brute, but he still has the mind of a real mad genius.
I love him, i wish we could see more of him.
TFP Shockwave and Ratchet's designs are literally burned into my head because of how absolutely amazing they are
Even though TFP is overrated I like that they made Shockwave not only intelligent but make him buff too. I just like the combination of mixing brains and brawn. Somewhat like Bane from the comics.
I also do like Shockblast's color scheme.
Shockwave is Transformers' Bane, confirmed.
Please make a tier list about Windblade, I beg you!
the mini shock bots danceing to a remix of tetris is cute!
Love the videos
