Shockwave



Shockwave is a covert agent in service to Megatron. This size-changing master of disguise has infiltrated Autobot security apparatus at the highest level: his cover persona is Longarm Prime, head of Cybertron Intelligence, reporting directly to Ultra Magnus himself. This puts Shockwave in the perfect position to undermine and mislead the Autobots while feeding strategic information to his true master. To establish his credibility, "Longarm" attended the Autobot boot camp alongside Bumblebee, Waspinator, and Bulkhead. And set up Waspinator to take the fall for him during Autobot boot camp in order to stay undercover and continue reporting to Megatron.

Befitting a double agent, Shockwave is highly secretive and fearful of detection. Befitting a cartoon villain, he can confidently give those secrets away if he thinks he's winning.

In Ultima, Animated Shockwave still serves loyally to Megatron, but this time, he serves the Megatron from the Prime Universe. But Shockwave doesn't care, all that matters is his loyalty to any Megatron, no matter how brutal or devastating they may be. Shockwave now has the ability to change into his Movie counterpart for heavy battle purposes, the side effects being a loss of intelligence to near Devastator levels.
