This week;
How many Shockwave toys do you own?
As there's been some naming issues we'll accept official Transformer toys called Shockblast, or some other variant on the name, as well.

Ah, yes, this is a tricky one. Basically anyone that's purple with one eye and a gun-arm and a slightly Shock-related name is Shockwave. With a the odd exception.
I have:
Action Master (boy, was that one of my favourite toys in the early 90s - the first Shockwave available in the UK!) Armada Minicon (who is nothing like any of the monocular madmen that we know and love but, nevertheless, is called "Shockwave") Energon (aka Shockblast) Alternators (aka Shockblast) Prime Beast Hunters Commander

Easy.
1. Action Master
Have owned:
1. Alternator Shockblast
Shockblast was a lovely toy, everything about him was right.

Shockwave!
SHOCKWAVE. Just say the name.
My second favorite Transformer. Never owned a G1. Boooo.
Own: Action Master Beast Hunters Legends Comdr job Alternator (great idea) Energon (loved this when first came out) Movie (the only Movie toy I still have/plan to keep)
(and *ahem* a certain unofficial version, who's the best One-eye there's ever been...)
I did have the WfC delux, but moved it on 'cos it just didn't work for me.
I'd have LOVED the 6" Titanium we saw design pics of a while back. I think we came close, 'cos he's mentioned on 6" T Prowl's bio.

Shock Chaps
Original thanks to a AA and ToyFu and a very odd trade (or that might have been swoop). Decoy (probably) Alternators Robot Heroes Animated DOTM BH BH commander FOC Kreon Botcon custom class purple jazz
I dont have Actionmaster Shockwave, how do I still not have AMSW?
Well because it wasnt repainted green and orange obviously.

Embarrassingly poor for a figure who on certain weekdays I'd class as my favourite Transformer.
Own: Energon Shockblast (two of these, one is on the potential projects list for a G1 custom) Animated Voyager (first release colours) FoC Deluxe (Hated toy! not Shockwave in the least!) Beast Hunters Voyager Beast Hunters Commander Predacons Rising Commander
(Quakewave Warbotron X-Ray)
Have owned: One of the other brand versions of the '85 one that was around in the mid-80s. Mine was purple, not grey, but it bit the dust years ago.
On the to buy list G1 DotM Voyager

A small update is necessary ShockwaveOwn 1) Energon probably the best modern nearly clasics Shockwave. 2) FoC3) DOTM Voyager Good toy. Fabulous light pipe. 4) DOTM Cyberverse5) Bot Shot6) BH Cyberverse7) BH Predacons Rising Cyberverse8) Micron Legend It says Shockwave on the Box! 9) Decoy At least I think I do. I got one with Wideload back in 88 which is long gone but I believe I've acquired one again in the last few years. 10) Action Master Lots of love for this here and, given his comic role and lack of UK availability, you can see why. I have rebought one AM and this is it. (OK I own 2: he came with a Banzaitron, but I never had one of those) HAVE OWNED 1) Cybertron Minicon again, it sid Shockwave on the packet! 2) Animated

Generations Legend, but more importantly one yellow original G1 - which, I wish I could remember, might be my first ever Transformer. I think he might just be. Oh wait, I've got a red keyring one, but I cut the key ring bit off it because it looked stupid.
So 3, but one has had body improving plastic surgery.

Keyring Cliffjumper. I could be tempted by Generations Legends Cliffjumper with his minicon pal if I saw him in the wild.

How many Thrust toys do you own?

Post by Shockprowl on Sept 14, 2015 6:34:15 GMT
Thrust!
G1, owned from the 80s, falling to bits now!
Classics/Generations.
I also used to own the Armada jet mold in Thrust colours, but I'm not sure he was called thrust, was he? Also had the Dirge coloured one as well. Back in the early days of Classics they back-filled my 'cone-heads' with Classics Ramjet.
Edit: Also owned a Worlds' Smallest at one point.

Well I've got the pelvic thrust. Which'll really drive you insa-a-a-a-ane!
Aside from that, though, I've got:
Universe Legends (from the Aerial Rivals pack) Kreon
And I once had - and should've mentioned this when we listed the see- attack planes - the cardboard flyer version that came free inside Shreddies back in the '80s...
