As soon as I saw his pictures from the seller I was quizzing the poor guy, and initially I wasn't even going to buy him and Rhinox just based on my experience in trying to get accessories for anything other than G1. After answering my questions he actually threw them into the price he quoted me for Hammerstrike, Night Viper, and Quickstrike dropped the lot to ~$4 each with shipping.
I've been handling him carefully, and working on shelf space away from the light. His plastic feels pretty solid, and I'm more concerned about his waist where his clear plastic chest sockets into the gold plastic waist as it seems loose and floppy.
The tail is from what I can tell based on online images gold plastic as well
, so that's why it might be harder to find.
You know, as a kid I never made the connection between the G1 Sideswipe toy my brother passed down to me and the characters in the Beast Wars show on TV, until Michael Bay had Sideswipe as a Corvette.
