This review is from: Transformers R.I.D. ShockBlast (Toy)
Energon Shockblast is an awesome toy. He has three modes, something I haven't seen on a mega-sized figure before. His first mode (the one he's packaged in), is a tank-like vehicle. This mode has a really cool shape and the treads fit in nicely.
His other vehicle mode is like a satellite. In this mode his gun is the very front. The front of him splits out to form 'wings'. What maked this mode look different from the others is the solar panels that fold out in a couple places. They add a spacecraft feel to him.
His robot mode comes together surprisingly well. Everything gets tucked away so that there's not a lot of extra junk hanging off. The entire left arm is the gun. His right arm is part claw-hand, part sheild, and part weapon. This is nice, and it's complexity offsets the huge, solid gun on the other side.
All in all, this guy's awesome. The transformation can be difficult the first time, there being three modes. But what I like about this transformer is the way all the modes come together so neatly, and look totally awesome at the same time.
If you like transformers, this is an awesome toy to ad to your collection.

We reviewed this over at ROCuniverse.com and it is a truly fantastic toy! It's durable, and easy to transform and looks great in either mode. A true nod to the old school Shockwave figure.

The death of shockblast., November 11, 2004

This review is from: Transformers R.I.D. ShockBlast (Toy)
Shockblast died in the transformers energon cartoon today. He was smashed by unicron!! It turned out that shockblast was a proud warrior. It is going to be sad for people that really liked him. There is good news that Shockblast's spark is still alive. He is going to become six shot. He will have a toy of himself in his repaint form. wait for his new repaint. you will like it or won't like it. Look for him in the upcomming episodes. Trust me, he will return!!!
