Shockwave has his priorities.

Synopsis
The Decepticons are strategizing on new plans to defeat the Autobots. Soundwave and Starscream present their own ideas, but Shockwave is having none of it - he believes those plans risk Megatron getting hurt. Prompted by Megatron, Shockwave reveals his own secret weapon... soft pellets bearing Megatron's own visage, so the Decepticon leader doesn't have to worry about getting injured. Infuriated by the useless plan (and by Starscream pelting him with the pellets from behind), Megatron blows all three of his lieutenants away with a single blast of his fusion cannon.

Notes
- This comic was published in the November/December 2022 issue of TV Magazine and advertised the Legacy Laser Optimus Prime toy.
- It was rerun as the June 2023 issue of the webcomic and advertised the Studio Series Bumblebee Shockwave toy.
- This issue was published a yet third time in the first collected edition of Transformers Go! Go!, after which Kodansha subsequently took the rather cynical step of replacing its page on the TV Magazine website with a redirect to an issue advertising the physical release.
Transformers references
- Oda goes all the way back to Siege for Shockwave's debut, with a design based on his 2019 Leader Class figure up to and including the toy's characteristic
submarine"Cybertronian battleship" mode. As usual the toy's battle damage detailing is omitted.
