Voyager Swoop is good because it means maybe they will do OTHER Dinobots as Voyagers!

If it is the Dinobot, I don't think Voyager is good fit for Swoop, who is supposed to be the small and fragile one of the group.

I was informed the proper way of romanizing of the name gives you "Swerve" not "Swoop".
So, red and white Breakdown? -------------------- |

Prime Breakdown is a bad mold for Aligned Swerve? Have you seen G1 Breakdown?

Well, no one's a bad mode for Aligned Swerve since we have no idea what he's like yet. I was just saying that I would be interested in a mold that can pass for G1 MTMTE Swerve and Prime Breakdown is a terrible choice for that. -ZacWilliam, no, there's no reason an Aligned Swerve should resemble the MtMtE design, but I wish it would is all.

Well, Bummer...
At any rate, we are already getting a proper Classics Swerve from Generations Kup. My money is on a Bulkhead repaint for this one.

Small, rounded and sd work for him. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-hotrod.gif) There'll be a Classics one from Generation Kup (new head) for the Asian Market this year. We have seen the head-mold on Kup's instructions before, and a pickup truck is a good alt. mode for Swerve IMHO. That said, I'd love an MTMTE-styled one too, he is just adorable.

Kup doesn't do it for me as Swerve at all either. I have a connection to Swerve in two ways: The tiny stout minibot toy I've had since I was a kid, and the tiny stout minibot with the big personality from MtMtE. Any Swerve that's not tiny stout and cute just completely misses all the nostalgia/love I have for the character.
-ZacWilliam, the Kup mold NEEDS to be done as Electro anyway. That's its perfect match. This post has been edited by ZacWilliam1: Apr 12 2012, 09:04 AM -------------------- Ever wonder about the speed of Turbofoxes?

Dang, I was REALLY hoping for Swoop.
Well, I still assume that the FoC line will contain Grimlock. He's getting a HUGE push in the marketing, it seems, just like Bruticus, and a Bruticus configuration for his component bots has been confirmed. |
