    Sideswipe set is beyond disappointing IMO. Granted, I was entirely anticipating Slamdance to be a Skytread redeco, but I hold fast to my opinion that he and Squawkbox would make for excellent new-mold weaponizers. Far more realistically, I was thinking Sideswipe would come with new weapons, an angry face, attachable spiked tires, and a bandolier. Go big or don't bother.

    So Skywarp...YES, the others...not so sure. I like the look of G2 Sideswipe, but I was never a huge G2 fan except Megatron's Green/Purple tank...and I thought Slamdance was a Cassette combiner, right?

    He was one of four; the other three were all beasts.

    I knew he'd be a Skytread repaint because that was the only thing that held the alternate modes. Honestly, if I were to redo the G2 swipe set, you'd get Brunt with a new head as Slammer, to get the last Citybot minion

    I’d have liked Tankette, who shares a mold with Skytread’s drone in Titans Return.

    Only ones I want from this group are Sideswipe and Greenlight. (oh and the targetmaster stuff too). Not that Skywarp and Slamdance don't look great. I just don't want a tetrajet, no matter how great the toy is. And at some point i'll get the KFC slam dance.

    I must be such a weirdo, because I like the battle damage paint and I like the screamer mold. I don\'t know what\'s wrong with me.

    Although, upon further review, I do like G2 Sideswipe's weapons...

    Sweeeeeeeet! So glad to see Skywarp being confirmed! Now I just have to get Thundercracker when he drops! Thank you Hasbro and Takara! My collection really could use more Decepticons after all.

    When we got listings for these a couple months ago, the listing said G2 Sideswipe w/ Slamdance w/ G2 Aimless. Though it is a great homage.

    Ok, I\'m in on Sideswipe, disappointed with Slamdance and there is WAY to much battle damage on Skywarp.

    It all looks beautiful! Original g2 Sideswipe was my first figure so getting this is a must.

    Do we actually know that it is select series? Also, it doesn’t really matter. AFAIK, “select” series figures are just as available as non-select figures. The designation is probably arbitrary and meant to drum up interest

    Nothing at all. I also enjoy the paint and the mold, so the Skywarp pack is on my short list.
    Some people are a bit too OTT when it comes to hating something simple like paint.

    I like Sideswipe, but not Slamdance. I also don't like Greenlight, but do like the Weaponizer.
    Oh well, I'll get it all and sort it out later.

    When I said I was hoping for a new Slamdance, I meant as Cassettes. But G2 Swipe needs more gnashing grit in his face, spiked tires and pouches!
