Swinole?!

Postby Ironhide Texas » Thu Jul 19, 2007 12:48 pm

Even though swinole wasn't in the movie i think the figure is tight. Everyone sees a bunch of swinoles on the pegs at stores, but besides his cheesy head, the robot mode is pretty sweet. Just wanted to read your thoughts.

Nope, he's in the movie line. He transforms into a red car, and has a weird Camera-Cyclops look. Here is a gallery of him.
The resident Rewind... well, half of one :lol:

- Jelze Bunnycat =:3

Looking for:
- TR Furos (Hardhead's head) and Crashbash (lost him :()
- PotP Punch head
- TR Galvatron right arm (the gun one)
- CW Brake-Neck/UW Wildrider, CW Offroad
- TR Twinferno & Grotusque
- Greenlight, Lancer and PotP Elita-1
- Legacy Core Slug, Sludge & Snarl

GoldRabbit is right. Swindle is an original movie mould, not a recolor.

The ones that are re-colors from earlier lines are all the sector 7 figures, and Basic Arcee.
Deluxe Arcee however is also a movie mould.


Back to the topic on hand, i don't like the robot mode, I totally hate the glass eye head. The car mode is not bad, but he just does nothing for me.

Same goes for Dreadwing. lousy head, thrusters for hands, ugly robot mode.

Eh, what do you want? All the cyclops are cannon fodder drones for the video game. Actually the marketing tie in is pretty brilliant. It isn't often you get the minions from a video game as a toy.

O.K> So I don't like drones with glass eyes for heads. They could have given them normal humanoid heads. instead or just a face plate or something with a visor, something equally generic, yet with a little more personality.

And yeah he's from the game, but he's still a movie style mould, not a re-color of a Cybertron figure.
