TFW2005- TFW member africa has found a few images updating what we know about the upcoming new projects from 'Just i Toys'.
Following the Dinorobots smallest figures, 'Just i Toys' advertised through TFSource that they would be doing a WST Blaster, and a WST Shockwave based on their G1 toys. Prototype images were shared, and drooled over, and there was much rejoicing.
For some of us, this new update will continue the rejoicing. It looks like the WST Shockwave toy, besides being a small, accurate version of its G1 self, will also include a specially created/molded combiner fist that will be able to peg into your G1 combiner, and then hold the WST Shockwave in his alt mode like you may remember seeing in a classic episode of the Generation One cartoon.
Check out the original thread, and the uploaded images below.

Awesome.
It's amazing how a third party company can give us smaller but amazingly detailed G1 style figures of SHockwave and the Dinobots but the original company who produced them can not.

3rd party companies from China don't have to worry about safety laws in America.

Now here is an example of a company with enough brain's to think through a release of a toy with a connection to its G1 roots. Well done

That would be Hasbro, but Takara doesn't have to worry about the USA safety laws and as far as I know the dinobots are originally done by Takara. But Shockwave isn't...
Anyway, I'm really looking forward to this figure
. Now, if they are able to put electronics on it like on the original...

I thought for sure that would come with the Encore Bruticus set when it's released. Mind you, I guess there is still time.
Either way, I like it!

I'd have to go through all my gestalts and combiners but I'm pretty sure with the possible exception of Devastator, all those fists are interchageable, meaning you could slap that gun in Menasor, Defensor, Abominous, etc.

Just a thought here.
It might be able to fit inside Supreme Primus' or Unicron's hand.
Would be dreadfully out of scale and make Shockwave appear as the size of the USA.
