Disapointing. Very Disapointing. Despite not beeing any form of jeep, Swinde's alt looked rather promising, but the lat mode... wtf? He looks like an upgraded version of one of the object formers.

Does that surprise you, Red? It's a MOVIE design.

Both get a meh from me. At least we know who won those auctions though.

Swindle's head sculpt looks like inspired by G1 Shockwave?!

Some of them are OK. Sadly mostly the Autobots.

Actually, it's a Game design, as Swindle is not in the movie.

QFT, homelessjunkeon. And by 'movie design,' I meant 'design inspired/in the same style as the characters of the movie,' AKA 'Bayformers.' Sorry if you misunderstood me.

Bonecrusher should have totally been a leader class figure. I really wish a sense of scale had been kept with this line. It would have been so much cooler. That aside, he looks pretty cool. Spiky shoulders rule!

Swindle looks like ass.

Swindle... eh, I'm not fond of him.

While I agree with Apex that Bonecrusher should be huge, he is still insanely cool!

Aside from the feet on both they look o.k.
I want to see them in person.

I can't wait to get bonecrusher for my dad and well duh(for my self). I love he could really skate and has the tail(I hope) one of the best and the guy says swindle is really not bad so I will agree with him. Bonecrusher kicks ass.

Swindle's bot mode made me laugh decently hard.

by **Greed** » Tue Apr 10, 2007 8:49 pm

I like Bonecrusher for his hate of public transportation but I'll most likely pass on the figure.

Swindle? More like Super-Cameratron. M I rite? ROTFLMAO

Just what kind of car is Swindle? I don't recognise it. Is it a real make?

I dunno. Could be, but I'm not seeing it. Swindle for me is like Voyager-class Optimus Prime; the head could have been one hell of a lot better than it was, but the rest of the figure is something I'd buy. Robot mode isn't as good as most of the figures I like, but it isn't something I'd pass on either.

Bonecrusher, however, I might pass on. That's one Movie figure I truly don't like.

Its kind of a lancer style car, but not dead on so they dont have to license it

bonecrusher looks pretty good. swindle has a bad bot mode

"An interesting thing I noticed on Swindle's packaging says that he is not in all versions of the game, probably referring to the handheld games versus the console/pc versions."

The Game's site has a screenshot with him in it. I don't know if it's a Psp screenshot, though.

Swindle: He should be a jeep, but iuts the movie so ill have to see.
Bonecrusher: I like a lot, he should be bigger, but looks tottally sweet.

I'll proberly pick them both up anyway.
