Seriously Shockwave. Guns are for shooting, hands are for sciencing.

erm what about the thumb?
I positioned him in the picture so you couldn't see it, but yeah that will need to come off at some point and be re-attached on the right side of his hand. Shouldn't be a problem.Quote:

The whole Shockwave as a scientist thing is relatively new. He was never a scientist in G1; in the G1 comics he was a Military Commander (as per his tech specs bio), and in the G1 cartoon he was a Steward.
Presumably, Cybertronian scientific equipment is all able to be controlled via their equivalent of WiFi, making physical interaction unnecessary most of the time.Quote:
