Hell, reverse the red and black on this one and have it be Sideswipe in G2 colors and I will buy another. | when they redecoed jazz in G1 colors they didn't change his name, but for swerve the reason was just to keep the name "swerve" for another day. i wish they used a different mold for it though and just named this one sideswipe as well.

My real point is, the head is okay but could've been better had it not been so "round or squarish". Perhaps some horns would've made it nicer.
As for the colours, ugh.. It's not entirely bad, but I wish the middle part of his robot mode chest were black in colour. At least it contrasts the overload of red IMO. I mean, take a look at Sideswipe. The middle of his chest is grey in colour, which contrasts the rest of his light silver/grey colours. So, why not?
Overall, I'm not getting him for now. But since i like red (and this red is still passable), and I like the mold, I MAY consider getting him and paint the middle portion black  |
