#1 | | Vehicon Join Date: Mar 2008 Posts: 565 | The Swindle Thread First I thought Swindle was pretty well handled in Animated, these are my thoughts about his character, add yours and whatever facts we can scrounge together.
1.) I don't think we've seen the last of him -because that would suck
2.) Everything about him is win...except for the voice... did it strike you is old sounding?
3.) Maybe some deals with Lockdown later on... That would make since.
4.) Yet another unafiliated Decepticon. S, BA, SS, SW, LD, OS
5.) Love to over homage, the eyes, head, large gun.
6.) He's got combat boots!
What do you guys think about him? |

I love his voice. Fred Willard nailed it with him. In G1 he sounded like an 80's cartoon car salesman. In Animated, he sounds like a modern cartoon car salesman. XBL GT: SPLITTLIP Quote:

He appears to know Megatron from way back - this supports the notion that he's an older mech. There may be no peace for the wicked, but the righteous can damn well get a piece whenever they feel like it. |

Then again, I felt the same way about Weird Al's take on Wreck-Gar too, yet everyone seemed to love it, so I guess I'm a black sheep here. |
