I haven't missed an Alt yet & I never will. Even the worse one (Rollbar?) is pure value for money, a miilion times better than any other TF the same price IMO. If I ever have to scale-down my collection (Here! - Out of date now. And I forgot to take pics of Cybertron shelf) then It's G1, G2, 20th Prime, WST's & Alts staying for good. BW through to Cybertron will hit eBay!

I saw him once, but walked away from him. Personally, as far as obscure alts go, I'd rather have Decepticharge.. and I might add, I have never seen him period.

 

I still need to get myself a Prowl and a Sunstreaker too. :redface

They are both better than Rico and Rolly

I walked into TRU on bright sunny day and there he was.......

 

I never saw him again.

(good thing I bought him then)

Bought it about the time it was released, payed over retail but figured it would be as common as dirt by now.

 

 

Sometimes, I wonder if Hasbro deliberately short shipped some Alts to increase hype for a future time when they can just re-release the same toy instead of creating a new one out of it.

 

There were a A LOT of negative comments made about Swerve  at the time it was revealed... especially about the fact it was  a repainted Tracks with just a new head.

 

Now, they don't even do new heads.  :tfevil

 

 

The 'Vette mold has been done to death, in a way i hope they don't re-release it.

got mine off gz. awsome price too. unless your a completest i wouldnt reccomend him. however tracks and ravage deffinetly.

I bought one off the Target shelves- there had been 3 there.

 

Wasn't for me though, was just picking it up for GZ.

 

 

I think I'd get one for me now, since I finally have Tracks. I couldnt' bring myself to want a Swerve until I had Tracks. Seemed wrong somehow.

You guys know where Alt Swerve is? He's being Shanghaied, literally. I saw stacks of the guy in Nanjing Road in Shanghai when I had a tour there last Christmas. Almost every department store there with a toy section had around 5 to 8 of these guys hanging around . There were priced approximately 25 USD, if I'm not mistaken. Unfortunately, being not the Alternators collector I passed on them.

 

And to make you guys feel even worse, since it's been six months since that time, they most likely had these babies on clearance to make way for newer assortments.

Im I the only person who looks at Swerve as being a whole seperate character?. His and Ravages head sculpts are so good, I dont even see "Tracks repaint" when I look at him. Now Rollbar, all I see is, Orange Swindle.

:pfx  The new head makes ALL the difference to me Dude!

Saw 1 and only 1, ever!

 

Glad I grabbed it when I saw it.

 

The Energon Ultra Magnus fiasco still makes me angry. Never saw him, ever!
