Third party company Shockwave Lab, via their Weibo account, have shared images of their new upgrade kits for Studio Series Wreck-Gar, Haslab Unicron & Kingdom Optimus Primal.
We have three new upgrade kits which give us extra parts, weapons and LED kits for the following figures:
- SL-114/SL-115 Kits for Studio Series 86 Wreck-Gar – Includes a junk “prop” inspired from the movie and a gun.
- SL-116 the Planet Light Kit – A remote controled LED unit for the central part of Haslab Unicron’s maw.
- SL-117 the Shield for Kingdom Optimus Primal – A big and detailed battle shield as seen in the episode “Victory” of the original Beast Wars cartoon.
See all the mirrored images on this news post and then sound off on the 2005 Board!

It's bright enough at high settings to cause pain when looking at it head on. It also shouldn't just turn on by tapping it. You may just have a faulty unit.
The lens cover is not a diffusing type. Because the LED mini puck is superglued in, one can't take it apart to easily apply a diffusing effect.
The camera SL used for their stock pics didn't handle the light well and made it look diffused. Even my phone's camera could make out the individual lights.
The remote is odd how 3 of the functions were disabled: flash, fade, and smooth.

The Shockwave Lab SL-116 SL116 LED Upgrade Kit for Titan-Class Unicron Planet Mode Upgrade Kit.
Don't waste your money. Good idea—poor execution—…
There are 3 pin point lights not a diffused light source. Not nearly as bright as the photos show. Also I worry leaving this installed long term. If I tap the item it turns on–without remote!!!

Its from the 86 movie. He bangs on it to announce the revival of Ultra Magnus

These showed up tonight (i.e. very quickly) and they are worth every cent.
In my opinion, the eyes and maw are essential upgrades for Unicron.

About time someone made those Axalon riot shields.

You're on a toy forum. That what we do.

What a waste of plastic

Because I really like weaponizers/fossilizers I wish that shield had more ports and pegs. Then I might have got it independent of ever thinking about kingdom primal.

You will not be disappointed with the eyes. It’s probably my favorite upgrade kit I’ve ever bought. It’s pretty amazing how we get so many great options for these collections.
The magnetic switch thing is just so clever and well done.

Why SL doesn't make the battle shields for the MP-32 and MP-34 from the original 1996 BW series?

I don\'t recognize that thing that looks like a giant arcade cabinet that Wreck-Gar is using…

I had been hesitant to pull the trigger on the kit for Unicron’s bot eyes, even when a seller offered a discount, but I did just order a combo of eyes and maw on eBay and I’m excited for whenever they show up. They both look like great additions to the figure.

I’m definitely interested in the set for Wreck-Gar and Primal’s shield…I’ll have to see how much they end up going for.

More than just that. Also in part 3 of coming of the fuzors when he comes back as a tm. Plus they were used as backround props in other eppisodes

Sweet, thanks for the link! I’ll have to keep this set in mind.

Primal used the riot shield in a Season 1 episode.

Someone explain what the Shield is from for Primal?

I got this kit for Wreck-Gar.

All I want is the gun from the Wreck-Gar set, wish it didn’t come with the other junk.

Can’t decide if I want to order two of the Unicron kits for both of my Unicrons.
