First off, wow, that is one PISSED OFF looking robot!
Second, will this see a North American release or will I have to order it online (like I will need to do for the EZ Devastator)??

To be fair, a new head means he is more than just a repaint.

Guys, Swerve will be both an North American and Japanese release this is just images of Takara's version. Don't you guys remember back in early May someone posted a Wal-Mart listing of him plus he was on display at Botcon set to be released 10/01/09.

We here in North America are getting a 'Swerve', but this is Takara's version and from what I can tell, it's just not as glossy as our North American version.

Cool, cool. I don't necesarily mind glossyness. Prefer semi-matte to super hi-gloss, mind you.

The red is awesome on that car.
I think I like him better than Sideswipe.

Not really about the credit. Just thought that people not interested in this, maybe my Title not attractive enough :-?

Now thats Sideswipe. Come to think of it, add some flames and you have Hot Rod. I may just do that if this sees release here in the US. I hope so, i love the original figure (except the damn feet)and this head sculpt and coloration are awesome.

I loved Sideswipe's toy. So, yes, i'm going to buy the repaint.

These pics make Swerve look more tomato red, as opposed to the cherry red of the pics of the U.S. Swerve.

I think is more of using lousy camera or poor lighting than painting colour difference.

Ugly head, but I'll buy it, to be my actual movie Sideswipe.
