Like [[Grimlock (WFC)|Grimlock]], '''Swoop''' has the habit of referring to himself in the third person. Also like Grimlock, he is one of the more powerful Autobots, and though the other Autobots undoubtedly think of him as dim, he's at least enthusiastic about fighting [[Decepticon]]s. His Cybertronian fighter mode can rain plasma down on any foe he faces. Unlike Grimlock, Swoop liked his upgrade into a [[Dinobot (FOC)|Dinobot]].<br />

{{Note|Swoop is an unlockable character for the [[Transformers: War for Cybertron (DS)|Nintendo DS version]] of ''War for Cybertron'' (Autobot version), unlocked by completing the "Gaining Strength" story mission level. Like the other unlockable characters, he can replace any of the other Autobots in the campaign mode.}}<br />
Grimlock and Swoop were neutral [[Transformer]]s who met with the Autobots to discuss joining. Grimlock was keen to have the Autobots test their mettle, however while he was talking, Swoop was kidnapped by a group of Decepticons led by [[Cyclonus (WFC)|Cyclonus]] for their [[Dark Energon]] experiments. In a lab on the outskirts of [[Iacon (polity)|Iacon]], Swoop was infused with the dark substance, and by the time the Autobots found him, he felt strange and had the urge to eat heads. He began flying around in his vehicle mode but the Autobots discovered that by zapping him with the equipment in the lab, they could purge him of the Dark Energon. Though Swoop resisted violently, they managed to purge him completely and he announced he felt better.<br />
<br />
Swoop promised to lead the Autobots out of the labyrinth of tunnels, however unfortunately Cyclonus had started the self-destruct sequence on the laboratory. Swoop and his rescuers were forced to race through hostile tunnels, taking down force-fields blocking their path, until they finally got out before the detonation. Grimlock was so impressed with their work that he let Swoop join the Autobots. {{storylink|Transformers: War for Cybertron (DS)|Transformers: War for Cybertron}}<br />

Swoop is said to act as the liaison between the Dinobots and other Autobots.<br />
<br />
As Cybertron's conditions continued to worsen, Swoop and four other members of the Dinobots were captured by [[Shockwave (Prime)|Shockwave]] and rebuilt into the Dinobots, with new alternate modes based on [[Dinosaurs|alien lifeforms]] the evil scientist had observed. <br />
