Shockwave (Kre-O)
| The name or term "Shockwave" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Shockwave (disambiguation). |
- Shockwave is a Decepticon from the brick-based world of Kre-O.
Shockwave uses math. For evil. He's cold, logical, and utterly without mercy.
And he can dance. Put on "Shake Your Bot Bot" and he will bust a finely-choreographed move like nobody's business.[1]
Fiction
Kre-O cartoon
During a robot dance competition, Shockwave was among the three judges, all of whom were Decepticons. Despite Bumblebee's phenomenal performance, he scored the Autobot at 1/2. For Starscream, despite awful technique and a nasty fall, he scored the Decepticon a 10². The commentator was skeptical. Bot Stars
He was present in the audience during Optimus, Bumblebee, and Megatron's boxing(?) match. He also cheered when Megatron lost... Last Bot Standing
He was among the minions who passed Megatron his presents during the holiday season. A Gift For Megatron
Kre-O webcomic
Shockwave was part of a massive Decepticon invasion force intended to ruin the Autobots' picnic. However, Optimus Prime plowed through them with his truck and left them scattered... and then left. Returning to the scene after.. ahem, taking care of some pressing business, Optimus gathered up the still-wiped-out Kreons, bound them up on a flatbed trailer, and took them to the picnic. Emergency! Hurry to the Base, Optimus!

- Autobot Command Center (2013)
- The Autobot Command Center set comes with a Shockwave Kreon to put in the Autobot jail cell. He has a new deco based on Prime Shockwave.
- Kreon Class of 1984 (Kreon figure set, 2014)
- This version of Shockwave, voted "Best Optics" by the Kreon Class of 1984, has much more toy-based tampographs than his prior version.
- He was only available in a pack of 30 Kreons dubbed "Class of 1984", which is somewhat more justified than other 85-86 characters, as while the Shockwave toy was released in 1985, the character made an early debut in 1984 in both comics and cartoon. This set was made for sale at San Diego Comic-Con 2014. Remaining stock was sold at Hasbro Toy Shop online.
