Is Swivel a good name for a Transformers?

  1. Yes, and he'd be an awesome Autobot!

    Watching a review today for Stormbomb and the reviewer (BaltMatrix, who did a great review) used the word 'swivel' during the transformation. When I heard it, I thought what a great name for a transformer and then tried to google for it, only to come up with many links to things that had nothing to do with a Transformer by the name of Swivel. It seems such a natural name for a Transformer yet I could not find a character with the name.

    So Transformerland brethren, can you advise on whether any such Transformer with the name of Swivel actually exists in any continuity?

    TFWiki and TFU both say no, it's not a TF name. So yes, it'd be a good one, for a Decepticon!

    I see him as a 'con who becomes a turret emplacement.

    I guess it's not bad. There have been worse names the past 25+ years
