Now that we have alturnate animation options they could just add a few shield bashes in as options for some of the melee sets.

Willpower: Inferior
I still hold that my Invul tank can do what a WP tanker can do, do it better and die less.
I also hold that he's better than Granite
Brutes, I have yet to get my invul one to the level of my WP one, so I'll get back to ya on that.

Summoning up a shield as a weapon isn't really an option for a weapon-less set at this point, but I can certainly see giving a few sets left-hand attack animations to emulate shield bashes. That, and wasn't the new Super Strength Knockout Blow perfect with a shield?

The alternate KO-blow has the character bring both hands down on the right and swing together upwards with the left hand leading, so that would probably look pretty decent with a shield. Also, the alternate Jab looks like you are hitting the target with the edge of the shield.|

Since all powers used by a SD character have to have a "with shield" animation, it should be possible to make that animation striking with the shield while the normal animation is a punch. Of course, it would mean extra work, and since the editor cannot display more than one power active at a time (yet) you would not be able to see the result before paying. Still, would be pretty cool.

I'd make one like that but give him super speed instead of flying and call him the Bowling Ball. heheh

It defeated villains by flying into them at Very High Speed.

The one thing that I like in the OP's post is that there isn't a ranged attack where you thrown your shield.
Because that's just silly.
I want to see Rock n' Roll attack. Guitar Heroes abound!
