Review: DOTM Sideswipe Figure


Blitz-Wing

Recommended Posts

I liked the first on that came out in '09. I wished the HA version would get a retool and fix the hands and back kibble.

I don't like the look of the topless alt mode for this toy, but I think it'd be pretty cool if done as a human alliance toy!

 

Thanks for the review once again, Blitz. So far the only new mold of an old toy that is a real improvement over the original(s) seems to be deluxe Barricade...

 

:agree

 

I don't like the topless version either, but could be an awesome HA figure. If they would only fix the articulation on the legs of Sidearm SS and and a little better foot and make that into a HA SS, I'm sure it would sell. Oh and maybe try another figure with him beside Megan Fox....:tfevil.

I actually LIKE the new car mode, and that's the only reason I bought this. I plan on painting it sliver. I transformed him once to see for myself and I may never again. I think the robot is terrible, especially right after Sidearm Sideswipe. I haven't had problems getting any of my sideswipes to stand. The first was a little shaky, but I have multiple transformers with normal feet who are as bad or worse...

I bought this a while back. The hood is very loose and I ended up using clear nail polish to tighten up the hinge. Once I did that I ended up enjoying him so much more. He's not a bad fig, but it is true that Sidearm Sideswipe is just better. Still for $4.99 he was a steal.
