One of the most successful toy scales in the Movie toylines has been Human Alliance. We've gone through 6 different Transformers characters, and now the 7th figure in the Human Alliance class will be it's first repaint. Sideswipe's traded in his sleek silver for some sleek jet black, going by the name of Shadow Blade Sideswipe. His human companion is the now defunct character, Mikaela Banes. Thanks to HK-TF member kenji we've got a variety of images of the new figure. Check everything out below!

Sideswipe prides himself on being a good driver, but he's never met anyone with the instinctive feel for the road that Mikaela Banes has. Her driving is so smooth and perfect that he is left free to concentrate on his blades and the target ahead.

You'll find more images over at HK-TF.

I just can't justify the purchase of this one. I like the Alt mode repaint, but the two-tone bot mode kills it for me. It would look better with all black.

Is he wearing a sweater vest or is it supposed to look like they're wearing matching outfits?

I have to say, it looks a lot better than the first pics made it look. Still, not sure if this is a purchase. More than likely not.

QUESTION... Does anyone remember the mod for this mold. I remember there was a mod for the back kibble, but I can't remember it. I think I have it figured out as far as what to do, but I want to make sure before I go through with it.

I would like to know the mod as well.

One word: SEXY. And I am not talking about Mikaela.

Looks like Hasbro or the owner of this fig did the mod. The backpack looks much better on this fig...a lot more subtle. If Hasbro did it, I wish they woulda done it from the get go. I generally don't like making permanent alterations to my figs.

They really shoulda used a lot more black for the bot mode, though.
