With Generations Scourge already out or (hopefully) on the way, and with Season 3 somewhat-coincidentally playing on my DVD player at the moment, I got to thinking about the Sweeps and the Sweep armada.

How many Sweeps do you plan to get for Scourge's entourage?

One for Scourge and two to be Sweeps. I'm planning to remove the Con symbols on the Sweeps and paint Scourges eyes red and have his wings open to individualize them.

Pre ordered from Amiami last December. More or less more flashy paint apps.

Well, my chimney is really dusty so I'll need alot of 'em. I just hope they don't start singing with my kids' nanny.

General consensus is three. I'll say three too.

I already have Botcon Scourge and the Sweeps. I don't think I need anymore than the Generations Scourge.

Unless they actually repaint the Scourge mold and sell it as a set labeled "The Sweeps", I can't imagine myself going out to the store to buy more than the one I already own.

Yeah... I dig repaints.

I'll get one Hasbro Scourge, one Takara Scourge, and the clear eHobby one. Maybe two Hasbro Scourges. After that the botcon and Titanium Scourges can also serve as Sweeps ... or Botcon Scourge as the real Scourge.

I already have 3 G1 Scourge figs. So i'll prolly only get one of the RTS release and use him as my definitive Scourge and the G1's as the sweeps.

On one hand I'd like to get just one. But on the other it would be cool to have three additional sweeps in the background.

I'll probably get three - the scene with Scourge's creation shows him in the foreground, and two more behind him. And I'll probably do SOMETHING to the 'Sweeps' to distinguish them, not sure what until I have them in my hand.

Buy one, then use photoshop to make it look like there's 5 of them. :grin:

what?

I'm actually gonna wait for either the United version, or the inevitable exclusive repaint (clear purple not counting). I need the Commander figure to be distinguishable from the clones by color. I'd probably get 2 or 3 (cheaper or lighter) Sweeps then, depending on how I feel.

Speaking of army building, how many of you have both U-Cyclonus and BiS/CoC Cyclonus? Which one is your "Armada turned 3rd Sweep?"

I have henkei Cyclonus up front, with BIS and U standing behind him. Looks good.

As for sweeps, I want them to match with Cyclonus, so it's 2 Sweeps and a Scourge.
