I am so hanging to get this set. Hopefully it will be out any day now *runs back to sightings thread* :D

Missed opportunity to make a toy of the Driller-Bot with Shockwave as pilot...

Could have had a soundchip of Shockwave saying 'Driller-Bot is thirsty', because that's the sort of dialogue I waited 25 years to hear a live-action Shockwave say...:rolleyes:

^this. I'd totally buy this toy if that were the case, but it's not, so pass.

Does anyone know if the Shockwave figure is regular sized, or Commander scale (like DOTM Prime, Megs, Ironhide, etc.)?

He would definitely be Commander Class.

I picked this up recently and love the Shockwave figure.

Of the action set's three alt modes the tank is by far the best. The cannon emplacement mode looks a bit silly on those spindly front legs and the "base mode".... :rolleyes:
