I’d love to see an Autobot!Shockwave.
I will admit my dumb monkey brain at first glance was like Oh what version of autobot!shockwave are they wanting to see.
(Tbf i feel like this is what happens when you have so many damn versions and generations of the same character over time).
So I dunno if this was what you were implying but this is the brain vomit I'm sharing
My ideal autobot shockwave on the science scale would be way more reigned in near wheeljack on unhinged science since we already know what he's capable when he's left to his own devices. He's just generally a mix of his g1 self plus a mixture of wheeljack and or brainstorm. An awkward nerdy bot in the science crew overall. Oh he def wouldn't be allowed to have a gun on his arm but maybe a less threatening claw or clamp or something. He's definitely not emotionless like in tf prime and no matter what continuity hes never going to be a kickass sniper in my brain.
