I have before you two customs that I would call the "Ultimate Shockwave".
Version A is a tribute to the first ARAH version. It was a custom that I brought from Alyosha on Hisstank(thanks) and repainted over the yellow camouflage to change it to a darker blue. He also has a pair of kneepads for extra protection. I kinda use this version as my default Shockwave more. Version B is a combination of two versions of Shockwave. One is the Resolute Shockwave, as he looked like in the comic book from the 2-pack with Destro, the other is of the trading card found in the GI Joe Battleground game. The idea for using the POC Beach-Head vest came from seeing the trading card. Unfortunately I can't fit any backpacks on him and his range of motion on his arms becomes slightly limited due to the bulky vest. Still it would provide some awesome protection. Here's the storyline I have for Shockwave in my universe: For years, Shockwave has led his S.W.A.T. team on many dangerous missions, kicking down doors and taking names. He shows no fear and does his best to protect his teammates, even if it means putting his own life on the line. The very mention of his nickname strikes fear into the hearts of many in the criminal underworld! Note: Version A has a knife in his left hand. Version B has the bulky POC Beach-Head vest.

CRs, the v1 figure came from me. I sculpted that hat many years ago when I made a JvC style Shockwave. I made 3 or 4 copies of the figure you have around the same time you bought this one.
