But seriously, I've even have gone for another Swindle mold repaint, just not another Sideways! What, is Hasbro afraid that because Sideswipe kills Sidesways in the opening battle scene that the toys won't sell of Sideways? | Totally agreed. Multi-packs in which one of the figures has already seen a single release are just annoying. Any change, ANY change to the re-used figure would make it worthwhile, but it is obnoxious to end up buying the EXACT SAME FIGURE twice.
Since there is that lime-green RPM Sideways repaint "Wreckloose" coming out, this would have been a nice chance to do a full-fledged deluxe version of that character (and his gaudy coloring would actually work great with the "Super Tuner" name). Or use it to preserve another about-to-expire Hasbro trademark... surely there have got to be a few of those lying around, right? White version as Runamuck, maybe? ANYTHING. Heck, even slapping some different detailing on him and still calling him Sideways would have been preferable. |

Just buy the set, unless you mean you have no TRU to go to and you hope they sale them as a wider release later.... then, I think you're probably S.O.L. | |
