    Do you want something that looks good in vehicle and robot mode and is a fun toy? Or do you want something that will cost more, doesn't have a vehicle mode, and splochy paint apps? Sorry, but I can never justify Robot Replicas.

    The main reason I want RR Sideswipe is becaue I have HA Sideswipe, and a figure in robot mode is good while the HA is best in vehicle.

    Ok, that makes sense. However, if you like Sideswipe, I would assume that you have the deluxe version of him which means you need someone for him to fight/cut apart.

    True True, I just "think" that RR SS has more poseability, if you have him doe he?

    I don't have him. I have toyed with the idea of getting him because I really like Sideswipe, but then I realize I can get a transforming toy for cheaper. Sideways is very poseable though and well articulated. Plus he was in the movie (albeit for a short while). Sorry, but I don't like RRs.

    Here's a concise video review of RR Sideswipe: RR SS

    But seriously, Here's a review from TFW member all are dead: RR SS

    if you wanna waste money on a transformer that doesn't transform then go all out and get an action master.

    Agreed, but it's a piece of crap.

    If you have a Movie Jazz, you can remove Sideways' saw with a screwdriver, and put Jazz's sword/gun weapon in his arm as his sniper weapon from the game. It's pretty cool looking.

    Sideways takes some time to grow on you, but he really is a cool toy once you get past certain issues IMO.

    I have both. RR Sideswipe is a very misproportioned(is that a word?) form of him. His wings are connected to his elbows, and his head is not right at all. His articulation is also not as great as I had hoped.

    Sideways is a lot cooler, plus he actually transforms. That's all I need to say for him.
