'''Sweeps''' are the minions of [[Scourge (G1)|Scourge]] created by [[Unicron]]. Sweeps are visually indistinguishable from Scourge himself, although Sweeps do not necessarily have identical voices. Although only a few are seen initially during Unicron's threat, there appears to be an inexhaustible supply of them later on. That's actually a good thing, as [[Galvatron (G1)|Galvatron]] tends to shoot them.<br />

The original Sweeps were created by Unicron from fallen Decepticons, but the seemingly-infinite number suggests that Scourge or the Sweeps may possess self-cloning abilities similar to the [[Insecticon]]s - altogether realistic, as the three original Insecticons were among the discarded bodies that Unicron used to form [[Cyclonus (G1)|Cyclonus]], Scourge, and their combined retinue. {{storylink|The Transformers: The Movie}}<br />
<br />
The Sweeps are by far the favorite cannon fodder of Galvatron, being beaten or destroyed in any number of abysmal ways. These ways include being thrown into the great beyond, lava pits, and into the path of an energy-mongering [[transorganic]] vampire monster, and of course, being shot at by Galvatron. This may explain their perceived cowardice, as well as their tendancy to grumble and whine, because who'd honestly be stoked about being the Redshirts for the Deceptions?<br />

: Well, while technically not "Sweeps", any additional Scourge toys you may own can easily function as Sweep toys, what with the characters being identical and all.<br />
