Courtesy of CYBERGEEKS Alliance we have some in-hand images of Transformers Generations Legends Class Swerve with Flanker. Like most current Generations offering this version of Swerve is based off his current appearance in the IDW comics universe. Enjoy the mirrored images below:

Needs a shoomer!!!!

Love it. Especially the Micromaster reference. He's almost perfect... I just wish he was more of a Scout or small Deluxe size instead of a Legends size. Hell, I'd be happy with just an upscaled version of this.

Ah well, I'm still happy with this.

According to the info at Botcon, October, 2013.

As we've clearly overshot that date, I'd suspect February.

Bought on sight.

AHHHH HE'S SO COOL! I love all these IDW releases, they're doing an excellent job of making them look just like in the comics. Can't wait to get Swerve. Still haven't seen the previous wave around here though, I hope they don't get skipped...

Sugoi! So if Feb 2014 is the local release, then the Tomy would be around June 2014.....quite a wait.

About time we saw Flanker's weapon mode. >:oP

Overall, I like 'em. Can't wait to see these guys, Cosmos + Payload, and Shrapnel + Reflector in stores.

Excellent articulation for the scale, and the vehicle mode looks betterthan Bumblebee's from that series.

Swerve looks great. What is the scale of Cosmos? I have iGear Cosmos.

by **MGrotusque** » Thu Dec 19, 2013 9:47 pm

Yep, that's a great looking little figure.

Following up on our previous story of Swerve and Flanker, once again CYBERGEEKS ALLIANCE provides us with a nice look at Swerve and Flanker's wave-mates, Cosmos and Payload! These images also give us a brief first-look at Payload's weapon mode.

I wish the hands were painted black, still a neat figure

Swerve's looking great, though the packaging art gives him one too many fingers for his hands. I rarely go for anything smaller than a deluxe, but his size is spot on for his character. Would have liked a My First Blaster for him, along with the Shoomer, but since the accessory mandate for this series is "...with a Targetmaster", Flanker is the next best thing.

Cosmos is nice, but given his appearances in MTMTE, he should have been given a similar treatment to Seaspray, with a larger Voyager-class figure.

I take back most of my earlier criticisms, he looks quite wicked. Love that he had neck articulation.

That would have been awesome, even if they used the same size targetmaster. Hell, it'd look just that much more imposing in vehicle modes.

I don't even have to think about buying these two on sight. They are pulling some amazing engineering out of that smaller commander size.

by **Deathscythetransform** » Sat Dec 21, 2013 8:35 am

I'M lovin' it!!

Looks like I'm triple dipping on Cosmos. Wonder how well the iGear versions gun will fit his hand.

by **Rated X** » Sat Dec 21, 2013 9:33 am

Awesome figure. But too small to go with classics. Too big to go with other legends. He's kind of stuck in the "buy him just because he's cool" category. But I have no idea where to display him. Same thing with Swerve. If he was the size of the Igear version, then we would be replacing him.
