Transformers Prime Shockwave, and.....
Hmm. I don't think they've announced the actual name of this very shiny character yet.
Overall, it's your basic two guys standing there pose. I liked the chance to get some lens flare in there, along with more molten slag, and the barrel rim of Shockwave's gun arm still red hot and smoking. Atmosphere, sparks, and distant burned out buildings tie it all together.

Well...Ratbat was a Mini-Con representative on the High Council. Not sure it would be him. Even if he did surrender to the Decepticons, I'd expect him to be smaller in Prime rather than a little under Shockwave's height.
Then again...we did get this size change:

Scorponok isn't in the Aligned Continuity yet. The Hall of Fame bio was referring to G1 Grimlock, not Aligned Grimlock.

Thank you. That's not what we're talking about.
The Hall of Fame are not strictly Aligned content. The Hall of Fame characters are cross-continuity character concepts. They don't have a specific place in a continuity, they are strictly generic. The bios are mentioning specific elements from the current "Aligned" continuity in others.
Scorponok still doesn't exist in the Aligned-verse [yet].

The majority of the Hall of Fame bios were written with the Aligned characters in mind, while being visually represented with an image of the G1 versions:
Optimus Prime - Aligned
Megatron - Aligned
Starscream - Aligned
Bumblebee - Aligned
Dinobot - Beast Wars
Jazz (2010) - Aligned
Soundwave (2010) - Aligned
Shockwave (2010) - Aligned
Grimlock (2010) - Aligned
Ironhide - Aligned
Soundwave (2011) - Aligned
Ratchet - Aligned
Waspinator - Beast Era
Cliffjumper (non-inductee/non-nominee) - Aligned
Shockwave (2011) - Aligned
Jazz (2011) - Aligned
Grimlock (2011) - Aligned
Autobot Erector - G1 (maybe Aligned if anything ever comes out of this)
Grimlock (2012) - Aligned
Jazz (2012) - Aligned
Shockwave (2012) - Aligned
Wheeljack - Aligned (but with a G1 line about having made "even the occasional Dinobot" thrown in)
Arcee - A MESS!!! It seemed like they tried for Aligned Arcee, but FAILED miserably, making her bio a load of nonsense
Megatron (Beast Wars) - Beast Era
Rodimus - Aligned-ish (it mostly fits, but there's still some wonkiness when you consider that it's Aligned Hot Shot who becomes Aligned Rodimus, and the mentioning of him as "Rodimus Prime" sound even weirder)
Sky-Byte - Robots in Disguise

I don't spot any differences. What did he upgrade?

This guy has a tail, claw, or gun emerging from his back and wings. Lazerback has none of these traits. Also, this guy's head is lower into the collar, complete with a different torso and shoulder kibble.

Huh, could have sworn it looked at least remotely like him. Back to speculations.
