This seems more like the toy color than the cartoon. The original seems closer, but a bit too light. If they just mixed those colors it would have been perfect
Consider the following: Shockwave is always in a dimly lit control room on Cybertron when you see him, so it stands to reason that if he were on Earth in broad daylight fighting alongside the other Decepticons he would probably be drawn much more brightly.
Perfect. Keep making this videos that no one else is making. Your helping a lot of people make that decision on which one to buy. A lot of companies are making the same character and sometimes is just too close to pull the trigger on which one to buy. This and all your videos are a big help. Thank you again.
The original really lacks paint it's a shame and my biggest gripe with it. You're paying more for the paint with the plus version so I don't feel so bad keeping the original in my collection. Honestly I keep it in gun mode and display Cloud 9's Shockwave in robot mode so I don't need takara's plus version.
TMReviews I like my FT shockwave but it is time for an upgrade. Good looking out I wanted to know what you thought because your reviews are spot on without fail. I agree with you but to dish out that much.......I’ll see what I’ll do lol. ✌️
I hate what the MP line has become. I still have my MP-4 Prime and they've come a long way from then and it's basically been all downhill imo. Cheap, inferior materials, non rubber tires, poor qc, jacked up prices, etc. It's really sad to see. I don't see it getting better in the future either.
This is really ridiculous! Takara obviously want us to spent and spent. They should have done anime versions since MP 17 onwards. And the current plus version, should have focus on other mp figures instead rather than remake again. 🤷🏻♂️

Correct seems more inline with the toy and Marvel comics

Thanks so much for the feedback, truly appreciate it
The color of the 29+ is nicer for sure, but like you said the price is a bit too much....which is a shame.
Ya, I personally like it enough to keep it but most people won't pay the difference
Yeah, Mp29+ is definitely Shockwave
MP: "That's a great looking Shockwave, shame it's the wrong colour.
MP+: That's a great looking Shockwave.
TakaraTomy should get to work on a G1 toy-accurate G1 Shockwave where he has the toy-accurate Decepticon logos.
Upon release, didn't they refer to MP 29+ as the "toy" version?
Not sure but generally speaking "+" has meant toon version
Initially yes, but not so much later on. 36+, 39+, and 53+ are examples where the plus was not the more screen accurate model.
$1800 for plus version on eBay... if only I had the foresight to pay $50 extra at the time...
Any chance you can link websites of the sellers you recommended?
Thechosenprime.com or toydojo.com if you live in the US

I still haven't gotten a hold of the cloud 9 version for comparison, several people have told me it's the best one
I mean don’t feel so down buddy, the original color is just as animation accurate to the cartoon.
In your opinion which appears better fanstoys or 29+?
29+, but that's my preference since FT is more bulky and squared off, some people really like the look of the FT tho

Amazing! Great review!

Just got mp 29, very cool
I really don't care for light up features if it's going to give you one giant hunch back
When did he come out?
It's been a while, 2019

Bro his gun 100 percent lights up. There is a button on the side of his left arm
Nates Toys and Collectibles scammed me :/ I wish you hadn't recommended him :(
Lmao, this toy can never hold the forward crunch in the waist.
