    Well bot mode seems more like a Classics Overdrive than Sideswipe (only minor exception is the head sculpt*.)


    *On the subject of the head, it appears as if it's design was conceived at the same time as, or at least with the MP figure in mind.

    Hes part of my POL, only because I had money leftover and had nothing else to buy.

    Are you able to take the head apart and paint the eyes?

    I'm surprised how many people are liking the headsculpt ~ sure the 'horns' are more G1 accurate than U2.0 'Swipe, but the rest is so derpy...
    yeah, on top of being just tiny and fragile looking, the WFC/FOC designs are just so uninspired and boring. i mean, it really says something when i won't even pick up Shockwave (my near favorite 'con) because he's so tiny and poorly designed. (and i LIKE Cybertron modes!)

    Yeah, he kinda does. He just needs a visor.

    Most of these FOC headsculpts are pretty lousy. I think Sideswipe's face looks most like that wacky GDO Wheelie's face. Magnus is OK but his eyes are on the side of his head like a bug and really doesn't give off a Magnus vibe. Starscream really needs to have a smirk.

    Agreed that these FOC toys have generally been disappointing, although it has some of the best packaging I've seen in years.

    I'll be picking him up. I don't understand all the FOC Jazz hate.

    I'll be getting him as well but Jazz just doesn't compare when placed alongside the other figures of the waves. But I like how they did him and Sideswipe is nice to have since he was in the game.

    Pretty cool repaint/remold. Don't really like the thin legs and tiny feet though.
