I hate that he's just so much empty space when you look at him any way but straight on. Pretty big bummer, seeing as how he's such a cool design, and the other HA figures seem to have done a good job of capturing the complexity of the movie designs. Compared to BB and Skids, this is a huge disappointment.
Thing looks like ass. Really don't care for it in the slightest. Deluxe is much much better. Hopefully Barricade's HA figure is better. So far BB is the only really really good one. Skids seems alright though.
Wow he looks much better than what pictures first let on, especially with the telescoping legs. He is a definite buy now.
Damn this looks good. BTW he's mistransformed. The doors aren't at the right angle and I'm pretty sure that back kibble plugs in somewhere.
Yeah. I bet once Peaugh gets him, he'll show us that he has less kibble. Can't wait to get him, I guess
Mna, that figure is awesome. The interior is way better tahn BBs, the car mode look more proffesional, the head also has a battle mask, tons of flip out weapons. Awesome. My only gripe is the backpack, but we've seen it folded up better in official pics, so it probably can stow better. people complain about how BB was so much more accurate, but really he wasn't, proportion-wise, and was quite skinny.
flip up/down face awesome he's got a flip up/down face defo getting him although the kibble at the back looks f**ked up
Because the ONE and only working model they made for the movie cost over $200K to produce...that would never sell in this economic world much less under the GM banner. I got to see the one used in the movie and I will say it is hot damn impressive, I wish they would show the engine of this car, it is AMAZING...I wasnt allowed to take pics ;( Back on topic, this is a great piece. The back is obviously mistransformed but I will be buying this for the gorgeous Vette mode, the deluxe bot mode is spot on.
is nice, yes ill definatly get him, this one will remain sideswipe, the dlx will be repainted into tracks
not really much more then the deluxe... Sideswipe's design really cheats so much (even for a Bayformer) that getting a decent robot mode without massive kibble is nigh-impossible. i mean, essentially both versions have the entire car shell as a backpack. nice to see this one has improved feet on the deluxe though.
Side view looks strange, but at least they did something about his feet to help him stand better. Gonna try to pick this guy up. Not sure about BB though. Maybe.
