Yep. Also, his head horns push against the bar for the little triangle piece that folds up, so you also have to fold his head down but looking straight up before you bring his bonnet down. Do that, and the windshield trick, the bonnet wont pop off at all.
I actually own this figure. I bought mainly because im a Mazda fan, always drove Mazda and own a Mazdaspeed3 now... this is the closest thing to that, so love it.
shockblast was also called laserwave on the binaltech version. my right shoulder pops off easily when transfoming it, so, youre not alone on this mold. the feet have stabilizers you can pull out from the bottom..found underneath. you can also fully extend the rear bumper/ toes and move it on an angle since its on a ball joint. good review sir!
when the toy transformers transform their designers couldn't find a a extra place to place their "backpack" on the transformers body, so they make it into a backpack
I have both this bot and Jazz (with reprolabels G1 stickers, see my vlog). The mold is awesome, but that hood just pisses me off it pops off way too much. Also during my review, had to cut out 8 mins of film because it just woulden't stay on. It's a shame that Hasbro didn't fork out the 10 cents needed to put metal pins in it.
i had both shockblast and smokescreen but as a cluless kid they ended up in peaces but now i realize they were were one of the best tf's i ever had mmybe when i can scavage up some money i can find them on the internet hhuuu i with i still had them
yo. i have this guy. only because i really like the rx8 i no not normal but hey. i was dissapointed with the foot design there to bulky for my liking. not sure wether you no or not but theres an extra panel under his foot to slide down to stop him falling over on his wheels. and the hood doesnt bother me just takes practise not breaking him first time ^ ^
Can Hasbro just make realistic not only cars alt modes for the Alternator line they could make him a realistic purple tank that is realistic, but, I like this figure.
This is what I dont like about the Altenators line: the guns! Often they are too small (like Optimus or Hound's) and always a pain to attach to their hands.
if you want some diecast parts and want to pay more get binaltech but this one is good enough. i buy all american versions and they are great. too much money for binaltech

out of all the alternators ive seen i want this one the most..
Awesome review of one of my favorite characters, Peaugh!

I like how all the alternators r official vehices

good review sir!
i really want an alternator, they look awesome as i love model cars lol
nice review though, cant wait to see more!
the vehicles are really detailed. Awesome
If you have Alternators Jazz, I highly recommend getting the Reprolabels set. That thing pops like no other!
Of all the Alternaters I've seen Shockwave's robot-mode is my absolute favorite!!
Only alternator i have he is awesome,
i like the fact that his wheel wells turn into his shoulders, i know it sounds kinda lame but i think its pretty neat
"out and down, out and down" that's what she said :P
This was a case that Hasbro wanted to call him Shockwave, but they couldn't.
biosonic100 Why, exactly?
Trademark. The lost the legal ability to name their toy Shoackwave because some other toy company had it.
biosonic100 Copy cats, I assume
Rofl
"It's such a damn SHAME!" XD
my first Shockwave toy
Oh look at me, I'm an Alternator!
when the toy transformers transform their designers couldn't find a a extra place to place their "backpack" on the transformers body, so they make it into a backpack
The hood and doors always pop off of mine. Love the figure though.
Yeah my Shockwave always had the hood popping off. It is so annoying when show friends.
Unlike some Alternators, Shockblast doesn't need an engine gun; his hand's a gun!
this is so cool but where do you buy him?...p.s.I'm your biggest fan
Alternators awesomeness is logical TO THE LIMIT.
I have both this bot and Jazz (with reprolabels G1 stickers, see my vlog). The mold is awesome, but that hood just pisses me off it pops off way too much.

what do you think is a good price for this figure?
how much did you buy it for?
Should I be searching for this guy or for Binaltech Laserwave?
i had both shockblast and smokescreen but as a cluless kid they ended up in peaces but now i realize they were were one of the best tf's i ever had mmybe when i can scavage up some money i can find them on the internet hhuuu i with i still had them
What is the story behind the Alternators anyway?
he looks badass like a car instead of a jet
in one G1 episode Shockwave uses a gun that looks like his altmode
have you got alternators jazz???
I Sooo need to get me an ALT Shockwave, i just didnt think id like it.
thanks for the Review Peaugh!
I FUCKING FOUND IT!! AFTER 2 YEARS OF SEARCHING TH-cam!!!
No Sideswipe02 he was called shockblast in transformers energon
@Sideswipe02 What he was called in Japan.
i want the white jazz/meister version of this but its rare as fuck :( would look so cool next to my wheeljack
@Nosyness maybe if they did a reboot ;)
very very cool!
I had to sell my alternators/binlatechs. :( I had Alt smokescreen and Grimlock and a unopened binaltech sideswipe. I miss them so...
@SeekersNews have you ever like cars
yo. i have this guy. only because i really like the rx8 i no not normal but hey. i was dissapointed with the foot design there to bulky for my liking. not sure wether you no or not but theres an extra panel under his foot to slide down to stop him falling over on his wheels. and the hood doesnt bother me just takes practise not breaking him first time ^ ^
is he a repaint of alternators jazz?
I need him scince there is no classics version of him!
what ever happened to mike
do you have silverstreak?
where could i get shockwave
is he taller than henkei megs?
Could humans alliance fit in there?
Sylar?
Indeed.
hes had that head in g1 and
animated!
Can Hasbro just make realistic not only cars alt modes for the Alternator line they could make him a realistic purple tank that is realistic, but, I like this figure.
you did not show his eye gimmic
His awesomeness is completely logical. His name, not so much.
cool !!
i like how it looks like a car on the bottom
☝🏿😁👍🏿 still got mine
LOL. Your hands look younger here, and it was only 2 years ago! HAHA!
also very cool
what modern size class is he?
he is a voyager
got him years ago...
it is a mazda rx-8^^ ... wished that it was a rx-7 -.-' but rx is cool tough
i went through the same thing with jazz's hood, real annoying
i wish they used some metal for the figures.
This is what I dont like about the Altenators line: the guns! Often they are too small (like Optimus or Hound's) and always a pain to attach to their hands.
@Nosyness Yea but then they would all be cars.
well,nice figure
you sound just like Sylar from heroes...
very sexy voice.
beutiful
shockblast was originally supposed to be shockwave but they couldn't get the name legally
lol bonnet i love england
both ;)
i got this today for £1, but the shoulders are very loose
its shockwave shockblast and longarm and longfoot
if you want some diecast parts and want to pay more get binaltech but this one is good enough. i buy all american versions and they are great. too much money for binaltech
they also should of givin him real feet
Wow, huge feet!
HA! :)
man, mine looks fine check your monitor settings
you said a bad word finally lol
@xerxes081082 lol
