Baiwei really is the new APC Toys. This looks gorgeous. Their KO SS102 looks flawless since they fixed the legs. Their Scourge looks PHENOMENAL and the paint on their SS ROTF Megatron is beautiful
@@kennythetrend3688 yeah, baiwei is a 4th party on the nest of days, they ain't doing that. and as a matter of fact, no 3rd party is doing mainline scale bay-verse. we just gotta wait for an actually good mold.
The only big problem that I can personally see on the figure is just there's way too much purple of a shade I feel is way too bright for this design. I personally like the more muted and darker color scheme of the original SS Shockwave. Though I feel if it weren't only for the paint scheme, I'd say that it looks great.
@@TheTranfan yeah, mine is considerably darker - PvP's almost looks like a G1, but I don't know if it's just because he has super-bright lighting or what.
After this they gonna release a metallic paint of RotF Megatron with added parts and then Scourge with the improvement too as always.. we just need to wait for Fallen
I actually found some metallic purple paint that matched the SS figure and then lightly brushed some on my copy. It really helps the color pop. Along with adding the DNA kit
He originally was supposed to be the main villain but they changed the script and almost went with Ultra Magnus before converting him to Sentinel Prime.
they are also just hard to tell apart. rarely getting much in terms of lines or personality. there is a reason that barricade was such a success, because he had a whole segment to himself.
I saw a video recently describe SS Shockwave's vehicle form as "Shockwave doing yoga" which seems accurate. I think it'd be better if you couldn't just see his face right there in front, lmao
Just got this figure and he looks amazing. However there are a few problems with the plastic. The plastic near the hip joints and the back are pliable and bend a bit too much for my liking and could break if you transform it too much. But if you don’t transform it you should be fine.
Not seen the film as I'm not much of a Bay fan, but I do love Shockwave. At first rst, I took a long time to get used to this design, still not 100% sold on it but this toy is lovely, and for the money it's a proper bargain. Would look good next to my other Shockwaves.
I was content to keep the original mold, even after customizing it with gunmetal grey and gold. However, after seeing this, I think that this might replace it. My only complaint is that I'm not feeling the overdose of purple, as I did like the subtlety of the original. Still, great figure. I do want to see them tackle SS Lockdown (give him new weapons and fix the arm panel issue), SS TF4 Grimlock (Give him the DNA upgrade kit). SS-49 Bumblebee (make door wings solid plastic), SS Brawl (fix arm panel issue and give him better articulation), SS DOTM Soundwave (give him his guns and make a more screen accurate chest), SS Blackout (more gunmetal grey, give him Grindor's hands, and include the DNA upgrade kit weapons)
I think they should have made the purple internal parts to give the figure the color separation that the ss version was missing. 🤔 Oh well, I love a good paint project 🎨 Will most definitely pick this guy up sometime
Getting this immediately. I’ve been wanting the mold but haven’t felt like shelling out 100+ for it. Now that this one’s out for only 25$? Easy purchase
Ironic how Baiwei's Sentinel Prime knockoff wasn't called Spock, he was voiced by Nemoy!! Haha! Anyways awesome review, never bought a figure so fast at such a CHEAP PRICE OMG
I foolishly skipped on the leader SS DotM Shockwave when it was on sale at 33% off. After that, it was gone forever. Thank you, KO people, for giving me a second chance.
Bro even G1 Shockwave wasn't that purple! I hate the color but they did do some nice things to the sculpt it seems. The best possible shockwave seems to be a combo of the original, the DNA kit, and this figure, but due to the insane purple color, parts swapping would look terrible :(
I always hated Bay's idea of Decepticons being to proud to get an Earth mode. That's when the people above him should have stepped in and said, "They are getting an Earth mode.". This figure looks awesome and for THAT price! Really nice. I do have the Studio Series version with the DNA upgrade set.
it also looks a little taller than the SS version, its really cool my only complaint is i wish the colors were a little darker, other than that its really cool i wish i had one!
I got this guy the other day - unless it's down to the colour saturation settings in your videos, the paint on yours looks about four times as vivid/bright/vibrant as mine...
Why does he have no head replacement based on the two heads? The colours work more for that design. Otherwise, i think these are some cool KOs. Can't wait for major characters like the Bumblebee Movie Jeep Bee and Blitzwing, 07 Bonecrusher, Barricade, Blackout, etc.
Images just got leaked of the bumble bee inspired megatron and the rumble from the leaked images is indeed a bumble bee inspired rumble. Images were also leaked of Mohawk and a ss gamer edition Starscream Edit: images also leaked of rotb scorponak, Pablo/wheeljack, 86 scrap heep, along with the fact megatron will turn into a tank and jet
I personally enjoy the paint job and head sculpt on the original, but everything else is outdone by the KO! The articulation, size, and proportions are all so much better!
💥”DRILLER BOT IS THIRSTY!”💥
Don't forget he was in the movie for like 5 minutes so they could focus more on shia and john Turturro
This statement is....
Logical
❤
Are the toe spikes and gun hose still rubber or did they finally make them plastic?
I really am hoping the toe spikes are plastic and not rubber.
People who were already happy with the SS release of Shockwave watching this: *insert pog*
Baiwei really is the new APC Toys. This looks gorgeous. Their KO SS102 looks flawless since they fixed the legs. Their Scourge looks PHENOMENAL and the paint on their SS ROTF Megatron is beautiful
BaiWei have been killing it with releases lately! APC needs to up their game & release wayyy more figures!
@@PrimeVsPrimeAPC TFP Ratchet when?
@@PrimeVsPrimewill you get the 102 and scourge knockoffs?
When did they do rotf megatron?
@@PrimeVsPrimebtw bro when you will review the DOTM trailer baiwei😊
Man deserved so much more love in the bay movies his design was my top 5 in live action
Everyone deserved much more love in Bayverse (especially Arcee with other two and of course my Boi Soundwave).
The way BaiWei's Shockwave looks is probably how he looked fresh out the Well of Allsparks. Before all the war grimed out all that color.
Spock and Shockwave share one thing in common
Logic
I thought they named him Spock because he's out of his Vulcan mind.
lol @@thachocolategod
@@thachocolategod this was so unfunny it was funny lmao
@@marikhadlin3835 it's one of my talents
@@thachocolategod amazing
If BaiWei can somehow pull off a studio series scale mirage that actually looks like the one in the movie…
they'd first need a good movie mirage to copy.
@@isuckatusernames4297the alien attack one is pretty good
@@isuckatusernames4297geewuner

the fact tht i only paid this for 20 bucks is absolutely mind blowing. hoping baiwei release more!!
Sick at the hospital, but man this review made me excited for this guy!
Hope you get better bro
@@That1mandalorian thanks, man!

Must be the lighting, my copy looks way darker
@@TheTranfan yup it is, also the yellow is less noticable irl
@@Susukie yeah indeed
@@TheTranfan yeah, mine is considerably darker - PvP's almost looks like a G1, but I don't know if it's just because he has super-bright lighting or what.
I think there are 2 versions of this figure
Did RUclips change the way notifications work because I had to scroll down to find this video. I have all notifications on.
Oh no I don’t think so 😔 hopefully it was just a one off! Pls let me know in future if you encounter this issue 🙏🏻
If Baiwei makes their version of the leader class Fallen and improves upon the areas that were kinda lacking, I think we’ll be golden!
After this they gonna release a metallic paint of RotF Megatron with added parts and then Scourge with the improvement too as always.. we just need to wait for Fallen
This makes me somewhat nostalgic for the old Voyager despite it being replaced by the Studio Series one.
The OG voyager is still such a great figure! I played with it for many years haha
Make me regret selling it off
I needed money
I still have the original,a nd it's still VERY FUN TO PLAY WITH. But the newer figure is also fun to play with. I regret nothing.
Makes him look more like a gnarlier take of prime Shockwave and I love it tbh
I was in awe when i saw him up for preorder, had to get him immediately and he came in yesterday, love it🔥
The color scheme eerily reminds me of TFP shockwave and I love it.
I actually found some metallic purple paint that matched the SS figure and then lightly brushed some on my copy. It really helps the color pop.
Along with adding the DNA kit
Imagine if they let bay have shockwave as the main villain, would have been so cool
He originally was supposed to be the main villain but they changed the script and almost went with Ultra Magnus before converting him to Sentinel Prime.
Now I don’t have to spend $100+ for SS Shockwave! 👍🏾
Bring back the Studio Series vs OG comparison series!
Ive been watching the channel back since the beginning
Ah wow thank you very much! 🙏🏻🔥
Omg! This KO Shockwave figure is absolutely badass!!
And If possible, I'd like to paint it as nice as it looks from the movie!
It’s really awesome! Especially the head sculpt! A repaint could be cool!
The scene of the intro where shockwave cuts wheeljack in half it was brutal broes !
"Transformers are back! And so is the Bacon Ranch Tender Crisp at Burger King!"
😆 a better fight than the movie 🤩🤩
Get the baiwei megatron, he looks amazing with the paint job
Man Bay Deceptions don't even live long enough they just get killed off in a matter of seconds . Awesome figure PrimevsPrime!
they are also just hard to tell apart. rarely getting much in terms of lines or personality. there is a reason that barricade was such a success, because he had a whole segment to himself.
@@Lazrael32 agreed
Logic states that I must buy this figure now

It maybe a bit much purple but this version of Shockwave looks so awesome and very accurate.
Woahhhh so cool!!!🎉

Nothing tops dark of the moon i hope we get a baiwei dreads with hatchet , crowbar and crankcase
The tip of the cannon of shockwave in tank mode looks like Driller
Not seen the film as I'm not much of a Bay fan, but I do love Shockwave. At first rst, I took a long time to get used to this design, still not 100% sold on it but this toy is lovely, and for the money it's a proper bargain. Would look good next to my other Shockwaves.
Shockwave: hey driller con. Commence.

They've already done grimlock, the exact way you wanted lol
I think they should have made the purple internal parts to give the figure the color separation that the ss version was missing. 🤔

Will most definitely pick this guy up sometime
While he had no character in the movie, the DOTM design is easily my favorite design for Shockwave.
Getting this immediately. I’ve been wanting the mold but haven’t felt like shelling out 100+ for it. Now that this one’s out for only 25$? Easy purchase
got this guy, can confirm he's pretty good, only compmaint are the pretty flimsy himps hinges during transformation.
Ironic how Baiwei's Sentinel Prime knockoff wasn't called Spock, he was voiced by Nemoy!! Haha! Anyways awesome review, never bought a figure so fast at such a CHEAP PRICE OMG
just curious, what's the purpose of hinge on the rubbery black parts on his toes?
Amazing video bro 🙏🙏. Thanks for showcasing it for us ❤

@@jahrinfari2569 I didn't say they didn't have Earth modes. I said I hated BAY'S IDEA.... Bro.
THAT DOOD IS BIG!
and very purple. Sweet review!
Thanks so much! 🔥🔥🔥
SERIOUSLY!!! For 24 bucks this can't be beat!!!! Excellent video!
it also looks a little taller than the SS version, its really cool my only complaint is i wish the colors were a little darker, other than that its really cool i wish i had one!
Its the lighting the colours are more faded irl and the yellow is less noticable
@@Susukie thats good and these new colors bring out the detail better than studio series hoping its not expensive though
Now this Baiwei Shockwave is awesome.
I love this Design
Definitely want this! I’m still waiting for someone to do Predaking from prime
Is the hose good quality plastic? Or will is wear down like the ss version
BaiWei has stepped up big time in their quality lately I hope they repaint this guy in the purple one day but this looks delicious in blue
I think you're a bit color confused
Kinda wanting to see shockwave in the next tf movie, both him and Megatron would be trouble for the autobots
WOW. That really looks amazing!!!
Shockwave's legs transform like the Megatron toy I have and also seems to have similar pieces at the top of the legs.
I can't wait for their SS102 KO with upgraded leg engineering.
Nice video that was sure PRIME
Thanks very much mate!
Wow Baiwei Shockwave towers over the ss 102 Optimus prime I wasn’t expecting it to be that big.
still such such a great design
Will we be getting a throwback review of the 07 Voyager Megs?? 👀
Prime Starscream: "Say Hello.. To **Spock** Wave"
I am so gonna get this
Wow the figure has the most satisfying transformation ever
I wish his cannon was retractable. That would sell me 1000%
“Auoboh? Opbimush!”
idk if it’s just mine since i barely got mine today but it’s a complete different shade of purple, way more screen accurate like the OG SS
also the eye is a piece of red plastic now instead of being painted, still has the touches of gold on it. definitely worth it 🔥
Shockwave Looks So Freaking Amazing And Colorful
Haha yes! Super vibrant
Any idea how we’d go about fixing his loose head ball joint?
Mine finally came home. Got it for 4 bucks. The only wierd thing is the material he is made of. The plastic seems wierd on touch
Prime who Shockwave is better new or old.
Primvsprime you should watch and review all the tf films 1986-2023
Man i wish he was that color in the movie. or transformed.... or did more in general.
I got this guy the other day - unless it's down to the colour saturation settings in your videos, the paint on yours looks about four times as vivid/bright/vibrant as mine...
this thing looks like a repaint/ Magor retool+ upscale of rotf ss series megs. (the top of the legs)
Purple actually looks sick
Agreed! It’s super Metallic too!
Why does he have no head replacement based on the two heads? The colours work more for that design. Otherwise, i think these are some cool KOs. Can't wait for major characters like the Bumblebee Movie Jeep Bee and Blitzwing, 07 Bonecrusher, Barricade, Blackout, etc.
Jeep bee bonecrusher and blackout/grindor are still available from Hasbro, baiwei won't be making them.
@@pravesh736 in the UK, they aren't.
OK 86 shockwave needs to happen
in my country, this shockwave will be sold like hot cakes
Shockwave is super bad ass! It is only logical that he sells out
Subscribing to prime vs prime is logical
gut finnally a english review love you bro from bangladesh
i NEED this in MPM scale!!!
also i want a shockwave who can have both arms with no weapons
zues toys bruh
@@Susukie u right about that… what about the interchangeable arm? anyone make that?
Honestly I’m fine with it not having a torso joint because honestly shockwave ain’t the type to be seen dead bending over
Very cool video primevsprime
Can u do a a dotm ss Megatron
❤ ur a good RUclipsr 😊
Is it just me or are the weapons bigger than the original?
Good god studio serie shockwave was god tier this (chef kiss) perfection

omg.. thhat looks. AWESOME!!!!
YESSSS!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
That's kind of a sim0le transformation compared to others. Looks great
in Italy the shop does not deliver
that pricepoint tho! ordered... :p
We need to get a BaiWei Lockdown. I think Lockdown was one of the best Bayverse Villain so we need a better Lockdown
I love this figure but mine has a smaller peg on one side of the hose and it doesn’t seem to want to plug in can someone help?
This guy looks amazing 🤩
Agreed! It’s bad ass!
Sick!
That is an interesting bootleg of Shockwave. As for it being “one of the beat molds of all time”… That is purely subjective. Cool video though.
