Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Deluxe Sideswipe EXPOSED!

By BLACKOUT34 on Saturday, January 10, 2009

OH yea, this is what the doctor ordered. It didn't take long, the full-on images are flowing. Thanks to yizhi of TF08.net the glory that is Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Sideswipe is now here for all to behold!

The new image shows us the back of what looks like the Sideswipe action figure card or some kind of print solicitation. Sadly, the strange look of the teaser image many hoped would be a movie still, has been exposed as one of Hasbro's photoshopped preview images. None the less, this pic gives us a good look at the mold. However, count on the final production versions of the robot and alternate modes looking somewhat different.

What's just awesome is now we know that Sideswipe's alternate mode molded after the new Corvette concept looks farggin' great! Very clean and sleek with hardly any indication there's a bot inside. With any luck that will be maintained in the production version.

Sideswipe's robot mode is also very interesting. The legs and arms look to have good articulation. Hopefully he's not as top heavy as he looks. The design has managed the kibble factor well. Using an Alternators trick that utilizes the rear bumper as feet is nice. However, it could be a real horror show from the back, so it's wait and see on that and that.

Stay tuned to Tformers.com for more details as they are made available. Your best resource for all the Transformers news and community every day.

I'm REALLY impressed. This guy could potentially rival Concept 08 Bee

You really display them backwards? if not why the issue?

For those fretting about the silver Sideswipe, I'm going to go out on a limb and say there's a 70% chance the mold will be redecoed later in the line. Classic Sideswipe colors would be an obvious place to go. Personally, I'd love a G2 Swideswipe out of this! (Sideswipe with his red a... read more

It looks as though its the front part of the car that is his feet as you can see his shoulders look like they are from the bumper.

Hobbes hit the nail right on the head. Red, particularly a real bright red doesn't photograph well. That's why Optimus is colored the way he is too. Hasbro had to really push for him to have the red chest, and the film makers had to really work out how to do it and still make him work on fi... read more

very very very awesome. the only complaint i have are the feet.. they look a bit like the '74 bumblebee feet, but i'm sure once i get the figure i'll feel differently. i just wish that the characters in the movie retained their G1 color scheme, i mean.. there's nothing about this si... read more

Yes, for the same reason car commercials and tv shows don't typically feature red cars. The color tends to be very difficult to light and shoot properly - or so they say. I've never tried. But once Bay mentioned that I started counting the red cars I saw in movies and on TV...very few, as i... read more
