TRANSFORMERS PRIME BEAST HUNTERS SHOCKWAVE PROTOTYPE FOUND

So back in 2013, multiple Transformers news sites reported on a prototype/sample figure of the Transformers Prime Beast Hunters Voyager Class Shockwave and 7 years later, I came into possession of said prototype. After coming to possession of him, I took a full 38 picture gallery of the figure. However, I can only fit 10 files on this forum post so here's some high quality shots of him alongside his SDCC counterpart!
Quick disclaimers: The seller apparently lost the hand some years ago, hence why he's missing the hand (it was light blue, same as the light blue hinges on his torso) also seeing as he's a 7 year old figure waiting to be found, I left the tank tread alone, fearing breakage.

Oh and I nicknamed him "Jerry" lol

Look like a "Blizzard strike" deco from RID2015.
They never did red redecos in BH,except a japanese Predaking BF,i'm not sure what would be the name of his size.The color is really not original if it's not clear.

I don't like Shockwave if you ask.

EDIT:i forgot LEGION Smockscreen.This prototype is so dark it could have been black honestly.

Keep in mind that this was just made to test out the mold and the colors were chosen randomly and don't mean anything.

Very cool. :APPLAUSE:

Anybody else getting a Cybertron Unicron vibe from him? Or is it just me?

If anything, each mold of the tooling set got its own unique color so if parts are off, the color points to the faulty mold.

This post makes me nostalgic for how good Beast Gunters Shockwave was, I sold mine a few years ago, but I do miss that bonkers aardvark tank!
