Very nice! :APPLAUSE:

It looks like it could be right there from the movie itself =) My only suggestion would be to outline where the head is a little better.

I can never seem to wrap myself that well around movie style transformer concepts (I still enjoy blocky/thick transformers more), so hats off to you

Cool design! I've become more and more a fan of the live action movie aesthetic and this definitely captures the style. If this were to make it to the movie fiction, I like the way that Sideswipe's signature blade weapons would contrast against his brother's cannon arm.

It's just a shame that movie Sideswipe isn't red.

It's a cool design, but I sure would like Sunstreaker to have a neck though.

I kind of like the way the head/shoulders are designed. There's a very forward/centered flow continuity to the different body parts and vehicle panel parts in robot mode. Everything's pointing straight ahead of the character, including the head design, which looks nicely aggressive.

Thanks for the constructive comments , ive added a heavy outline and changed the colour to avoid the Bumblebeeness...

The new shade of yellow looks very nice with the design.

Now that I've looked at it some more, I really like the way the feet are designed. The larger feet combined with the digitigrade styled legs makes for a very powerful looking lower body visual. I bet he could stomp some 'Cons.

At the same time, I could imagine the parts of the lower legs shifting to go in a more "roller skating" look like movie Sideswipe for some major speed.

Aside from the cannon arm and the fact that yellow was used as a primary body colour, I don't think it resembles BB too much, if at all. No more than G1 BB and G1 Sunstreaker.

I really love this design!

I just had to comment again...

I like the black outline around the second version of Sunstreaker. The blank background combined with the outlined Sunstreaker, which is highly detailed and has a clean look, gives a technical illustration vibe.
