I don't think this change was needed. I like Shockwave as a bulky tankformer. It's not the logical thing to do, but he can easily rock your shit if he really wants to, and I think we really need a scientist character that can fight with the best of them. Frankly, the most logical choice for that character is Shockwave.

whiles this is a phenomenal build and very cool design, I personally feel that cold, calculating scientist is only part of who shockwave is, I also view him as a large imposing threat to the autobots, who could absolutely beat megatron in a fight if he wanted to, but at the end of the day, this is transformers, nothing is set in stone and every thing can change, i always try to be open to new interpretations.
@thefourthfrank88143 ай бұрын
I really like these fresh takes, I think the only things to make him more recognizable (which may be hard at this scale) would be to give him the hexagon around his eye under the dish, and to change out the two thrusters on his chest for a single thruster shaped like the elongated hexagon plate on his g1 chest

I hope i can get across just how JEALOUS i am at how you make these designs They're so unique but stay true to their original concepts, DJ deck Soundwave, probably the most unique way of tackling the issue of modernizing his cassette player form, and being a DJ in a party probably means he could easily eavesdrop drunk convos, or influence a whole hoard of humans using his sonic wave bs Pizza truck Wheeljack, he's a walking italian flag how did i never think of that??!! and being a van means he's got plenty room to be a mobile lab in disguise Your cybertronian Bumblebee, Nightbird, Arcee and Elita also excel with the design conventions of space cars, while still being incredibly unique We've had Shocks as a space balster, a space turret, a tank, a spider tank, a bullshit spaceship from Siege NEVER has he been something that looks THIS captivating, NEVER have i EVER seen ANYONE make Cybertronian modes look ACTUALLY Alien, this looks like something STRAIGHT RIPPED from a 60s Japanese sci-fi magazine I literally can not contain my excitement to see just how you will flip our minds outside in and inside out once more with this design, those little sploches of turquoise DEFINITELY have me intrigued

For a cold calculated robot, to me, he also has some H.G. Wells' "War of the Worlds" vibes to him! Specifically, the original Tripods look quite similar in a few ways, with the lights, saucer hat and spindly limbs. It helps that the Martians there were heartless too, so I quite like this take! I love your endless creativity on these new takes!

Shockwave is my all-time favorite Transformer, and I would LOVE if this design became an official variant. I love the robot mode, he looks very War of the Worlds-y and I think it fits the character amazingly. I really like the G1 references and adaptations like the ear hoses and gun handle legs. I think the X-Wing-Enterprise-y ship mode looks great and fits well too. I love the colors too and referencing Animated is a win. I would love to see this design in the Shockwave multiverse and on my shelf of Shockwave figures. Basically this is one of the coolest Shockwave designs I’ve ever seen

I like the idea of interpreting his face as a single eye encased in a hood, instead of being on a black faceplate. I think the only thing I’d do is try to give him his horns. The tubes on the head are great, but I have a hard time seeing them as horns, and the spike on his head just makes me think of a German World War One helmet. All I’d do is make the head dome purple and try to add two head spikes instead of one. Everything else is great.

Hmmmm, I have an idea. Someone saw Shockwave's shuttle mode investigating Earth for the Ark and Megatron, and when he zipped away near Lightspeed, they created an idea. And thus, the iconic Star Trek ship was born. Also I do find the shuttle and slimness interesting. He definitely looks like he's meant for the labs more than an enforcer.

maybe to satisfy some Shockwave fans you could figure a way to make the fins that make up the leg also be able to shift into some kind of tank treads and kinda make it a triple changer, and the upper body and top of the spaceship part would perfectly resemble the turret of the tank mode.
