    Nope, Sunstreaker was an Earth mode, hence why this Earth mode Sideswipe has a nearly identical vehicle mode, because the two were based on the same car, Sunstreaker was just a concept variant.

    ...that's how Transformers Tuesday's typically work. Where the hell have you been since these things started?

    Still a spoiler would have filled out the back more on Sideswipe, Sunstreaker already has his intakes. Me, personally, I'm used to them having slightly different alt modes.

    No spoiler? Are you kidding me? They have the damned posts molded right there on the legs!

    Well, at least I don't have to get upset about Red Alert going to Walgreens now.

    Spoiler would also need to be a minimum of 4 additional pieces so as to not interfere with the knee articulation. Even if it had been designed into the legs, that's at least 2 additional pieces to let the spoiler fold away. Wouldn't really be practical to have included it from a budgeting standpoint

    since earthrise started i have been out of the community to be honest, only have been recently checking because of some beats wars figures and bayformers, so yeah i don't know how tfs tuesdays work and i don't care

    also it seems hasbro will kill the bayformers pretty soon, and jolt nowhere to be seen, and i don't care about the description, it almost never reflects how good or bad a figure ends up being, and this time i'm so disappointed about skywarp (i already said why somewhere either here or in the reveal post) but is so inaccurate when the mold allowed it to be pretty accurate, but nope., of course hasbro managed to ruin the perfect mold with such an easy color scheme, so yeah only disappointment for the past couple of months, so i doubt i will pay attention anymore to any of these events

    And since we all know that toys are designed only three weeks before they hit stores, there was absolutely no way that anybody could have possibly foreseen this when designing the mold for Siege.

    I want Mirage but not Grimlock.

    I have the Nonnef spoilers. Can they be used with this mold?

    I just zoomed in on Sideswipe's alt mode, and either Nonnef or somebody will have to design new spoilers for Earth mode Sideswipe, due to new sculpted detailing and the holes on the Siege mold being removed.

    I know the rumored Golden Collection seems to be like a new line or subline that it needs to be revealed at a convention or Fan First, but what would be the chances of them revealing on a Transformer Tuesday?

    Decent.
    They have to show them eventually.
    We don't know how SDCC reveals will be handled this year.
    Tuesday/Friday makes sense

    The irony... I have both Seige and Netflix sideswipe and I couldn’t decide which to display with sunstreeker. Problem solved.
