TF Prime Shockwave toy question

This is a really cool toy figure and was wondering what's the difference between the difference between the different types of Shockwave toy lines, like TF Prime and Beast Hunters Deluxe Class and Voyager Class? Which one is recommended for adult collection that doesn't have lights or anything like a Weaponizer has.

Re: TF Prime Shockwave toy question

prime Shockwave is great. The only thing I don't like is the spinning feature.

Energon Shockblast is a neat toy as well.

Quakewave is a great toy. So nice to pose and handle.

The prime beast hunters shockwave was a nice figure. If you like it, then don't spin it then theres no problem.

There is a list of shockwaves I have posted above. I like the generations deluxe class foc shockwave and the beast hunter voyager shockwave.

Out of the official Shockwave releases, TF Prime IMO is the best one. The FOC one is okay but too small. The best on the market, although I don't have it, would definitely be Quakewave.

Try it again. It works for me.

Right now, IMHO the best official Shockwave is the Prime one. The gimmick doesn't take away from the toy at all.

Coming in at second, but only if you mod it, is the Energon Shockblast. Check out mine.

Re: TF Prime Shockwave toy question

I wish I hadn't sold off my Energon Shockblast...I kinda want to hunt one down again.

But agreed with the sentiment here, the TFP/BH Voyager Shockwave is a good lookin' bot. I wish it had a tiny bit more articulation in feet, but other than that it looks great. I myself traded up to the Takara Tomy Hunter Shockwave version (it's a darker metallic purple). The SDCC Shockwave's Lab version isn't bad either.

Re: TF Prime Shockwave toy question

What's SDCC? (Shockwave Deluxe Commander Class?) I see the Takara one has more vibrant colors and more details on it
