Wierd thing, the hood decal is the BT tracks one.

Dosen't surprise me at all. At this time I'm sure that Hasbro needed to get a way to generate sales for SWERVE. There's no better way that luring us with something that is supposed to be used for another character. Damn you Hasbro! If this is true, you've won this time! Well played. :thumb :tdown

Well, it's working for me with Decepticharge. I'm buying that ugly yellow f*cker just so I can give Windcharger the right head. :grr

:rofl :rofl :rofl

 

 

Seriously though if Swerve does show up here in Canada I'm buying it. The hood decal is priceless. :thumb

Actually it goes for about $50 US, and you get a free blue diecast car with it! ;)

Or there's the near-identical version from Reprolabels.com for $9. :P

I would've mentioned that instead, except it's printed on clear label stock. On yellow (and Iwould assume red) it looks great, but on dark blue, the red and yellow get dulled down some. But others might not mind, so I'll go with both: the label isn't priceless, it goes for about $50 or $10, depending on where you go. :thumb

so this really isn't a joke?  I thought for sure it was when I saw this:

That's called marketing, by new body style they mean new color. :tftongue

Or maybe they believe most people will think it's true since almost no one ever saw Tracks on shelves.

 

... even has the same wheels ... geez.

 

Speaking of the 1st ... I stole my girlfriend's car for April Fools'. Worked like an absolute charm!

Well, this pretty much secures my purchase of a Swerve. I probably would've anyway, but that sticker clenches it. Only problem is, now I have a dilemma:

 

Should I apply it to my Alt (blue) Tracks, or let Swerve keep it? On the one hand, it belongs to Tracks in the first place, and completes that G1 feel. On the other, Tracks looks pretty respectable in his pristine state, and he's going to look pretty tacky with that giant flame decal stinking up his hood. Swerve, on the other hand, is already pretty tacky, and if anything the flame helps to set him apart from Tracks, plus it makes a good Hot Rod homage. Then again, the sticker would put Swerve even more into the unrealistic/cheesy/wtf camp with Decepticharge.

 

Any Binaltech owners want to chime in here? What did you do with your decals?

When you say your giving Windcharger the right Head, Do you mean your going to paint a Mustang mold Red and swap Decepticharge's head with the Stang body or do you mean your going to put DC's head on Overdrive's body(S2000)?

 

After reading the bio I dont even call Alt Windcharger, Windcharger any more He is officially Overdrive to me and Windcharger got jacked like Sunstreaker and Trailbreaker. Maybe you could put Wheeljack's head on DC's body and make his scanner device make since.

It's still in the bag with the instructions.

My BT Tracks decal is applied squarely to the hood of my blue BT. It looks swanky.
