Nahh. She's just marvelling at her slender deadly arms. The better better to hug you and squeeze you to.....dea....sleep

But Slipstream is an Animated character.

Her shiny deco even homages the shininess of the Japanese Animated toyline figures.

All this talk about BA and Silverbolt. Just want a clear answer (looked up tfwiki but no cigar)is BW Silverbolt the same as the CW Silverbolt who forms Superion?

Silverbolt's character is defined by his extreme fear of heights and by his refusal to bow to it. He constantly struggles to project the image of a brave, determined soldier to hide his fear from others. Optimus Prime named him leader of the Aerialbots in the hopes that worrying about them would give him something else to focus on besides his own phobia. This has proven true and, not surprisingly, the mature, responsible Silverbolt makes an excellent commander.
He can combine with his fellow Aerialbots to form Superion.

"Pure, strong, and fast," Silverbolt's sense of right and wrong is so overdeveloped his fellow Maximals wonder if his programming has a glitch. He speaks in lofty platitudes of chivalry, nobility, and idealized heroism; his speeches make even Optimus Primal roll his optics. His conviction is both his strength and his weakness. He sees the world in black and white—and not just because his beast mode is partly canine. The only gray area for Silverbolt is Blackarachnia. His fierce love for the "evil" Predacon causes him to question his preconceived notions of right and wrong. He was very proud of his ability to convert Blackarachnia to the Maximals, and, though most of the Maximals are skeptical of her loyalty to the cause and to him, he has nothing but faith in her.

There is absolutely no relation between the two characters outside of them both being named silverbolt.

Yes, but we're talking about the fuzor, who is not the generation one silverbolt in any capacity, outside of having the same name.

Yeah, just throwing it out there, since he was part of the original question

Devil's advocate: isn't smiling benignly a bit out of character for Animated Slipstream? Maybe a LOT out of character?
