The best thing about Swindle was that he sold off his comrades as spare parts.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

And almost got away with it!

2nd Season, one of the last episodes - B.O.T.

Might watch it again. Big storm so the only tv channels still available are the public networks.  :tfpuke

 

Thank goodness for my huge DVD collection.  :tflaugh

I had a theroy called the Right Leg theory...Swindle, Deadend, Scrapper, Slingshot, and Firstaide...right legs (from the 1rst person perspective)...they got the spotlight...though of all the combiner groups the Stunticons definitly had the most diverse characters of ALL the teams.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

errr First Aid was an arm street wise and grove were defensors legs

 

i think its down to the toy the lamer the toy the more time they spent building up thier character so kids will want them

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

deadeand was a left arm,wildrider and breakdown were the legs

Swindle is cool indeed.

 

He even dared to charge Galvatron for Metroplex's transforming cog. Took guts indeed but it was not the smartest thing to do of course.

 

I think both the show and comic writers each had their favorite characters and wanted to showcase them.

 

In the G1 comics, Bludgeon was heavily featured, even leading the Deceptions untill his demise in G2.

 

Nightbeat was also extensively used in G1 and sadly had a last appereance in G1.

 

Both would return for War Within which was also written by Furman. Furman obviously liked them and it shows. Bludgeon was the leader for awhile and Nightbeat saved the Autobots from Thunderwing when he was possessed.

 

The first does not match the tech spec of Bludgeon (or More Than Meets The Eye entry) in anyway but I can see Nightbeat in his role easily. I think he would make a decent squad leader if the situation called for it.

nightbeat died at the end of g2 though, he and dirge activated their self destructs against the swarm
