I picked one up the other day and I really like him. He has some really cool parts to his transformation.

ITS THE CAMERA HEAD!

As petty as it sounds, I absolutely hate the design of his legs and feet.

Because he isn't in the movie.

I think this is one of the better designs as a bot/car...

As for the head... Since he's like a drone or whatever, I think its suiting... (Plus it looks like Shock Wave which nobody ever complained about his head.) As for the hands, arms and legs... I like them alot, as they are very animal like (with the seemingly double knees, and the arms/hands remind me of bat or Pteradon arms when walking - the doors as the wings). This guy could be a killer Swoop kitbash due to his shape in bot mde dont you think???

PS - Megatron IMO is the crappiest movie toy (and the on with the REAL cow legs)

I like Swindle's Figure.

I think Swindle is pretty cool but I wish his head could move.

1) just clip the plasti around his head on the rotating core.
2)don't deploy the cannon then
3)so he has 'abnormal' feet. they are stable are they not?
4)his hands are better than most AEC trillogy and classic hands since they are not molded blocks
5) just massage it alltogethjer and check the tabs and other stuff to seee if they are not broken.
and so what if he is not in the movie? you are not going to play with the movie figs by onloy reinacting the movie are you?

Somebody here commented on a similar situation, and I agree with them. The Decepticons really should be anything but cars. That's my excuse for not getting him.

Sorry you have to miss out on barricade then.

Swindle was my second movie toy. I really really like him, he has a distinctive movie look and is a great engineered tf. I wish they made a dewbot just like swindle.

I agree, he has really sexy hips...

by **Cybertron Optimus** » Thu Jul 12, 2007 4:29 pm

Not quite that way though

by **Phenotype** » Thu Jul 12, 2007 4:32 pm

I like him, the only thing I'd really change is the color of his plastic, a deeper read or metallic red would have a nicer choice.

Yep, sucky head. As all movie figures have ugly heads, but his is exceptionally sucky.

News Credits: 1 · by **Bumbled** » Thu Jul 12, 2007 5:56 pm

I actually think he is quite cool, though I don't have him... yet ^_^

I guess he is not that popular by some people who have just watched the Movie and only know the Movie Characters. Therefore making non-movie characters not as popular.

He is a nice figure, bar the head, but at least he and Dreadwing escaped the wrath of Hasbro that befell Arcee...

I get he whole "drone does not need head, it is a drone" thing, but still, would it have been that hard to give him and the other drones some kind of decent heads?

Otherwise, he is a top notch figure, and there are more Decepticars coming out soon, that all look pretty darn good.
