'''''War For Cybertron: Siege''''' is a [[subline imprint]] of the ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' toyline, and the first portion of the ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy]]''.

First revealed in mid-[[2018]] at [[San Diego Comic-Con]], ''War for Cybertron: Siege'', in keeping with the installments of the ''[[Prime Wars Trilogy]]'', features a line-wide [[gimmick]]: weaponry. Most Deluxe, Voyager, and Leader Class figures each come with at least one or two weapons that can transform, combine, and/or be placed into any [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]] posts, [[5 mm post]]s littered all over their bodies, essentially an updated version of the [[Powerlinx]] system. Another line-wide feature is battle-damaged paintjobs on Deluxe-and-up figures to fit with the gritty "war" aspect. Returning to this toyline are [[Micromaster]]s, which are bundled in two packs, replacing the Legends Class of the last half-decade, and are now able to combine into large weapons as well as transform into their vehicle form. This size class is also used for Soundwave's minions, who can turn into cassettes or be used as a shield with fold-out pegs. Replacing the [[Prime Master]]s from [[Power of the Primes (toyline)|the last toyline]] are "[[Battle Master]]s", small [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmaster]]-type figures that can combine with other weapons and figures. They include additional "Fire Blast" effect pieces that can be placed onto other weapons included with other size classes, as well as hardpoints on the figures themselves to simulate being 'shot' or on the back of vehicles to simulate "rocket boosters" or "speed", depending on the effect part. Each effect part attaches via a 3 mm hole, or in most cases, 5 mm posts too. Some Deluxe Class figures are classified as "Deluxe Weaponizers," which can be disassembled into multiple weapons to be used in the C.O.M.B.A.T. System. Leader Class figures are very similar to ''Power of the Primes'', in which smaller figures come with additional armor that can be be added to vehicle mode or robot mode to increase their size to become the height of a Leader Class figure.

The boxes of the figures have black-light revealed [[Alphabet#Generation 1 alphabets|cybertronian script]] on them which can be put into the "[[Found a hidden code?]]" game on the Transformers website.

Following in the footsteps of [[Arcee (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Arcee]], [[Grotusque#Generations|Grotusque]], and the three ''[[Prime Wars Trilogy]]'' "Special Edition" figures in 2018, Hasbro debuted a special edition ''[[Transformers: Generations#Selects|Selects]]'' deco of Voyager Class Megatron at [[Toy Fair 2019]] to celebrate the ''War for Cybertron Trilogy''. Announced at [[Toy Fair 2019]], Combat Megatron was exclusively available in the United States via online retailers such as [[BigBadToyStore]], [[Entertainment Earth]], TFSource, and Hasbro's new replacement for [[Hasbro Toy Shop]], [[Hasbro Pulse]].

==''Siege'' (TakaraTomy)==
Like ''[[Transformers: The Last Knight (toyline)| The Last Knight]]'', ''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'', and ''[[Studio Series]]'', [[TakaraTomy]]'s ''Transformers Siege'' (トランスフォーマーシージ) toyline sees their new "brand unification" strategy in full effect. As such, Takara ''Siege'' toys are completely identical to their [[Hasbro]] counterparts, just released in different waves and given new "ID" numbers.

==Notes==
*The names of many individual figures from this line were revealed by listings on [[Walmart]] and [[Amazon (website)|Amazon Australia]] prior to being formally unveiled by Hasbro at conventions.
*''Siege'' toys debuted at the tail end of October 2018 with the Voyager Class available from U.S. comic stores and private dealers, followed up by Battle Masters at [[Target]] on November 4, 2018.
*Deluxe Class Red Alert was accidentally revealed by Hasbro by being featured as the "core" figure in the [[stock photography|stock CG render]] showcasing the use of Brunt's Weaponizer parts released during New York Comic-Con in October 2018. Full on stock renders were found on different websites, such as [[Target]] and [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] leading to New York [[Toy Fair 2019]], midway through February, where his existence was finally acknowledged.

[[File:WFC-Siege-Poster-ArkLaunchAutobots.jpg|thumb|250px|The stege begins.]]

'''''War For Cybertron: Siege''''' is a [[subline imprint]] of the ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' toyline, and the first portion of the ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy]]''.

First revealed in mid-[[2018]] at [[San Diego Comic-Con]], ''War for Cybertron: Siege'', in keeping with the installments of the ''[[Prime Wars Trilogy]]'', features a line-wide [[gimmick]]: weaponry. Most Deluxe, Voyager, and Leader Class figures each come with at least one or two weapons that can transform, combine, and/or be placed into any [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]] posts, [[5 mm post]]s littered all over their bodies, essentially an updated version of the [[Powerlinx]] system. Another line-wide feature is battle-damaged paintjobs on Deluxe-and-up figures to fit with the gritty "war" aspect. Returning to this toyline are [[Micromaster]]s, which are bundled in two packs, replacing the Legends Class of the last half-decade, and are now able to combine into large weapons as well as transform into their vehicle form. This size class is also used for Soundwave's minions, who can turn into cassettes or be used as a shield with fold-out pegs. Replacing the [[Prime Master]]s from [[Power of the Primes (toyline)|the last toyline]] are "[[Battle Master]]s", small [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmaster]]-type figures that can combine with other weapons and figures. They include additional "Fire Blast" effect pieces that can be placed onto other weapons included with other size classes, as well as hardpoints on the figures themselves to simulate being 'shot' or on the back of vehicles to simulate "rocket boosters" or "speed", depending on the effect part. Each effect part attaches via a 3 mm hole, or in most cases, 5 mm posts too. Some Deluxe Class figures are classified as "Deluxe Weaponizers," which can be disassembled into multiple weapons to be used in the C.O.M.B.A.T. System. Leader Class figures are very similar to ''Power of the Primes'', in which smaller figures come with additional armor that can be be added to vehicle mode or robot mode to increase their size to become the height of a Leader Class figure.

The boxes of the figures have black-light revealed [[Alphabet#Generation 1 alphabets|cybertronian script]] on them which can be put into the "[[Found a hidden code?]]" game on the Transformers website.

Following in the footsteps of [[Arcee (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Arcee]], [[Grotusque#Generations|Grotusque]], and the three ''[[Prime Wars Trilogy]]'' "Special Edition" figures in 2018, Hasbro debuted a special edition ''[[Transformers: Generations#Selects|Selects]]'' deco of Voyager Class Megatron at [[Toy Fair 2019]] to celebrate the ''War for Cybertron Trilogy''. Announced at [[Toy Fair 2019]], Combat Megatron was exclusively available in the United States via online retailers such as [[BigBadToyStore]], [[Entertainment Earth]], TFSource, and Hasbro's new replacement for [[Hasbro Toy Shop]], [[Hasbro Pulse]].

Like ''[[Transformers: The Last Knight (toyline)| The Last Knight]]'', ''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'', and ''[[Studio Series]]'', [[TakaraTomy]]'s ''Transformers Siege'' (トランスフォーマーシージ) toyline sees their new "brand unification" strategy in full effect. As such, Takara ''Siege'' toys are completely identical to their [[Hasbro]] counterparts, just released in different waves and given new "ID" numbers.

==Notes==
*The names of many individual figures from this line were revealed by listings on [[Walmart]] and [[Amazon (website)|Amazon Australia]] prior to being formally unveiled by Hasbro at conventions.
*''Siege'' toys debuted at the tail end of October 2018 with the Voyager Class available from U.S. comic stores and private dealers, followed up by Battle Masters at [[Target]] on November 4, 2018.
*Deluxe Class Red Alert was accidentally revealed by Hasbro by being featured as the "core" figure in the [[stock photography|stock CG render]] showcasing the use of Brunt's Weaponizer parts released during New York Comic-Con in October 2018. Full on stock renders were found on different websites, such as [[Target]] and [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] leading to New York [[Toy Fair 2019]], midway through February, where his existence was finally acknowledged.

War for Cybertron: Siege

[[File:WFC-Siege-Poster-ArkLaunchAutobots.jpg|thumb|250px|The stege begins.]]

'''''War For Cybertron: Siege''''' is a [[subline imprint]] of the ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' toyline, and the first portion of the ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy]]''.

First revealed in mid-[[2018]] at [[San Diego Comic-Con]], ''War for Cybertron: Siege'', in keeping with the installments of the ''[[Prime Wars Trilogy]]'', features a line-wide [[gimmick]]: weaponry. Most Deluxe, Voyager, and Leader Class figures each come with at least one or two weapons that can transform, combine, and/or be placed into any [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]] posts, [[5 mm post]]s littered all over their bodies, essentially an updated version of the [[Powerlinx]] system. Another line-wide feature is battle-damaged paintjobs on Deluxe-and-up figures to fit with the gritty "war" aspect. Returning to this toyline are [[Micromaster]]s, which are bundled in two packs, replacing the Legends Class of the last half-decade, and are now able to combine into large weapons as well as transform into their vehicle form. This size class is also used for Soundwave's minions, who can turn into cassettes or be used as a shield with fold-out pegs. Replacing the [[Prime Master]]s from [[Power of the Primes (toyline)|the last toyline]] are "[[Battle Master]]s", small [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmaster]]-type figures that can combine with other weapons and figures. They include additional "Fire Blast" effect pieces that can be placed onto other weapons included with other size classes, as well as hardpoints on the figures themselves to simulate being 'shot' or on the back of vehicles to simulate "rocket boosters" or "speed", depending on the effect part. Each effect part attaches via a 3 mm hole, or in most cases, 5 mm posts too. Some Deluxe Class figures are classified as "Deluxe Weaponizers," which can be disassembled into multiple weapons to be used in the C.O.M.B.A.T. System. Leader Class figures are very similar to ''Power of the Primes'', in which smaller figures come with additional armor that can be be added to vehicle mode or robot mode to increase their size to become the height of a Leader Class figure.

The boxes of the figures have black-light revealed [[Alphabet#Generation 1 alphabets|cybertronian script]] on them which can be put into the "[[Found a hidden code?]]" game on the Transformers website.

Following in the footsteps of [[Arcee (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Arcee]], [[Grotusque#Generations|Grotusque]], and the three ''[[Prime Wars Trilogy]]'' "Special Edition" figures in 2018, Hasbro debuted a special edition ''[[Transformers: Generations#Selects|Selects]]'' deco of Voyager Class Megatron at [[Toy Fair 2019]] to celebrate the ''War for Cybertron Trilogy''. Announced at [[Toy Fair 2019]], Combat Megatron was exclusively available in the United States via online retailers such as [[BigBadToyStore]], [[Entertainment Earth]], TFSource, and Hasbro's new replacement for [[Hasbro Toy Shop]], [[Hasbro Pulse]].

Skywarp (G1)/toys

2019-06-25T06:01:19Z

Garfieldwxg55: /* War for Cybertron: Siege */

{{suite}}
[[File:G1Skywarp package art.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.67]]
[[Skywarp (G1)|Skywarp]] has always looked and will always look a lot like [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]]. There are many [[Starscream (G1)/toys|toys of Starscream]] and where there is a Starscream toy, a Skywarp toy soon follows.

==Toys==
===The Transformers===
[[File:G1toy skywarp.jpg|right|thumb|upright=2.2]][[File:G1catalog84-DecepticonPlanes-Redeco.jpg|right|thumb]]
*'''Skywarp''' (Decepticon Jet, 1984/1985)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''23'''
**''Accessories:'' Left & right fists, 2 missile launchers, 2 missiles, 2 "Machine Guns", left & right wings, left & right rudders, left & right tail fins, landing gear

: Skywarp began life as a ''[[Diaclone]]'' "Jet Robo", but unlike team-mates [[Starscream (G1)/toys|Starscream]] and [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys|Thundercracker]], with whom he shares his mold, his distinctive black-and-purple deco did ''not'' originate in that line. Skywarp transforms into an {{w|F-15 Eagle}} fighter jet, by a process which essentially involves removing and reattaching most of his plane parts. Though it is possible to do so without removing all of them, this rather piecemeal design and the fact that neither mode uses all his parts means it can be quite difficult to find an intact original Skywarp on the secondary market.

:Skywarp is armed with a pair of missile launchers that mount on his arms in robot mode, and under his wings in jet mode, with a pair of specialized projectiles for each. In jet mode, two short rockets are fitted into the launchers to make them resemble the drop tanks a real F-15 carries, while in robot mode, they are replaced with the long barrels of Skywarp's machine guns. The original ''Diaclone'' version of the mold featured spring-loaded firing mechanisms in these launchers; while this feature was removed for the [[Hasbro]] release of the toy, it was left intact for the [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] version, and all subsequent reissues.

:While the earliest releases of Skywarp were basically identical to the ''Diaclone'' mold, some small modifications were soon made to the figure which became the standard for all subsequent reissues of the mold. These included the hollowing out of the inner edges of his wings and the tips of his tail-wings, the lengthening of the pegs on his wings, and the addition of extra clips on the inner sides of his fist-gauntlets, allowing them to grip his arms better but creating a visible slit on them. Like all his 1984 brethren, Skywarp gained a factory-applied [[rubsign]] in 1985, which was added to the left side of his fuselage.

:For some reason, the stats on Skywarp's, Starscream's and Thundercracker's [[Tech Spec]]s were switched around. Skywarp's box was given Starscream's numbers, giving him a high intelligence and rank that stood in contrast to the bio printed next to them.

:Early Hasbro stock photos of Skywarp (right) show him with a plastic purple nosecone. This was changed to a soft, black rubber nosecone when the toy was actually released. However, a [http://tfarchive.com/toys/articles/toypics/mex_skywarp.jpg Mexican variant] retained the purple plastic nosecone. The same stock photos also show him with purple launchers with black triggers and muzzle rings, black feet, black shins, black outer arm panels, purple horizontal stabilizers, and both sets of purple missiles. These stock photos were also later used to promote Takara's 2001 reissue (see below).

:The Italian release of Skywarp (as "Corvo") by [[GiG]] put him in a generic "Distructor Planes" box, featuring names and tech specs for all three planes in the assortment.

:This mold was [[redeco]]ed into [[Sunstorm (G1)|Sunstorm]] and retooled to make [[Dirge (G1)/toys|Dirge]], [[Ramjet (G1)/toys|Ramjet]], and [[Thrust (G1)/toys|Thrust]].

*'''Skywarp''' (Basic, 1997)
**''Accessories:'' 2 rifle halves
: Sharing a mold once again with [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Machine Wars|Thundercracker]], Skywarp transforms into a white {{w|Rafale|Dassault Rafale}} fighter jet with spring-loaded one-step transformation from jet to robot. The two halves of his rifle store in his lower legs. Like all ''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' toys, Skywarp was an [[exclusive]] to Kay-Bee stores and related stores like Toy Liquidators.

: The toy was [[Repurposing|repurposed]] as the [[Skywarp drone]]s. This mold is also used by ''[[Beast Wars II (toyline)|Beast Wars II]]'' [[Dirge (BWII)#Toys|Dirge]], [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|''Robots in Disguise'' (2001)]] [[Skyfire (RID)|Skyfire]], ''[[Robotmasters (franchise)|Robotmasters]]'' [[Wingstun#Toys|Wingstun]] and ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' [[Waspinator (BW)/toys#Timelines 2|Waspinator]].

**''ID number:'' '''Set C'''
**''Accessories:'' Left & right fists, 2 missile launchers, 2 missiles, 2 "Machine Guns", left & right wings, left & right rudders, left & right tail fins, landing gear
:The original Skywarp toy was reissued for the first time in 2001 as part of Takara's small "[[Collector's Edition]]" series, which made several Generation 1 toys available as convention [[exclusive]]s. Sold in new open-faced packaging with no notable changes from the original figure, Skywarp was an exclusive at the Japanese science fiction convention "Super Festival 21", available only in a set with Thundercracker and limited to 1000 pieces. The pair are often mistakenly identified as [[e-HOBBY]] exclusives.

*'''Skywarp''' (reissue, 2003)
**''Accessories:'' Left & right fists, 2 missile launchers, 2 missiles, 2 "Machine Guns", left & right wings, left & right rudders, left & right tail fins, landing gear

:The original Skywarp toy was made available again as part of Hasbro's line of [[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]] reissues. Released in the fourth wave of the series, it featured functional missile launchers for the first time on a Hasbro version of the toy, but because the launchers now worked, both sets of missiles had to be lengthened [[for safety reasons]]. His machine guns didn't turn out ''too'' bad; the missiles didn't fare so well. Rather than correct the erroneous Tech Spec numbers from Skywarp's original release, this reissue retained them and instead features a slightly re-written bio to remove the contradictions.

*'''Skywarp''' (Deluxe, 2003)
**''Accessories:'' 2 missiles

:''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' Skywarp is a redeco of ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Machines]]'' [[Jetstorm (BM)|Jetstorm]] in his Generation 1 colors. He transforms into a Cybertronic fighter jet, armed with two spring-loaded projectile launchers that can fire orange "energon" bolts. These launchers end up in his arms in robot mode. He has a third robot mode that collapses the legs around the cockpit (oh hush), with flip-out panels revealing an extra pair of thrusters. His [[spark]] crystal, revealed by flipping the purple hatch on his back, has a Decepticon [[insignia]] [[tampograph]]ed on top of it.

:Although most previous versions of the mold have the wingtips swept forward in vehicle mode, Skywarp was packaged and depicted in his instructions with the wingtips swept back. His fictional appearances, however, use the conventional arrangement shown here.

:Skywarp was also used to make ''Beast Machines'' [[Aero Drone|Sonic Attack Jet]], ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 franchise)|Robots in Disguise]]'' [[Storm Jet (RID)|Storm Jet]], and ''Robots in Disguise'' [[Jhiaxus (RID)|Jhiaxus]].

===Smallest Transforming Transformers===
[[File:Smallest transforming skywarp.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.67]]
*'''Skywarp''' (2003)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''GTF X-1'''
**''Accessories:'' Left & right fists, 2 missile launchers, left & right wings, left & right tailfins, landing gear

: Part of the first wave of ''[[Smallest Transforming Transformers]]'' product, Skywarp is, of course, a redeco of this line's Starscream. Like all toys in the series, he is a tiny, simplified version of the original Generation 1 toy, transforming into an F-15 fighter jet, with most of the accessories from the original toy faithfully translated save for his machine guns. As with all previous waves of ''Smallest Transforming Transformers'', these figures were sold [[blindpacking|blindpacked]], with Skywarp as one of the wave's two rare [[chase figure]]s

: This mold was redecoed into ''Smallest Transforming'' Thundercracker, and retooled to make Thrust.

===Robotmasters===
[[File:RMSkywarp toy.jpg|right|upright=1.67|thumb|Now with the proper articulation for down-stair-pushing.]]
*'''Skywarp & Thundercracker''' (Multi-pack, 2005)
**''Accessories:'' 2 "Machine Guns"

: ''[[Robotmasters (franchise)|Robotmasters]]'' Skywarp is a redeco of [[Starscream (G1)/toys|Starscream]] from the same series, a smaller yet more advanced version of the original toy, adding more articulation and reducing the amount of [[Partformer|part-forming]] required. He was available only in a two-pack with [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys|Thundercracker]], which also came with a Decepticon sigil pin and chromed missile pods. This set was the very last product released in the ''Robotmasters'' line and wasn't even strictly sold in a box from that series; instead, it used an [[e-HOBBY]] Generation 1 reissue box, with a small ''Robotmasters'' sticker in the corner tab noting its origin from the front.

===Classics (2006)===
{{anchor|Classics}}
[[File:Class06-toy Skywarp.jpg|right|upright=1.67|thumb|Ultra Magnus isn't pictured because he was just pushed-well, you know.]]
*'''Ultra Magnus vs Skywarp: Battle For Autobot City''' (Multi-pack, 2006)
**''Accessories:'' Left & right missile launchers, 2 missiles

: ''[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]'' Skywarp is a Target-[[exclusive]] redeco and slight retool of ''Classics'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Classics (2006)|Starscream]], transforming into an [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes|F-15 Eagle fighter jet]], though with a canopy like that of an [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes|F-14 Tomcat]]. Unlike previous (and future) figures, the shade of purple used for this figure has a more reddish tint to it. He comes with a pair of spring-loaded missile launchers that can be mounted on his biceps or used as hand-held weapons in robot mode and can attach under his wings in vehicle mode. As with most ''Classics'' toys, he also features a heat-sensitive [[rubsign]].

: Skywarp was slightly [[retool]]ed from the earlier Starscream figures. The retool is present in the jet intake area. The slope of his shoulders was decreased from Starscream's, and a fifth rectangle was added to the vertical area. This retooled version was used for all subsequent releases of the mold, and was also used as a [[Variant#Running change|running change]] on Starscream.

: He was only available as part of a two-pack with [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#Classics|Ultra Magnus]]. The set's price was $19.99, despite including both a Voyager Class and Deluxe Class mold in it, which would be approximately $30 worth of toys if they had been sold separately. He was also available in Woolworth stores throughout the United Kingdom.

: [[Stock photography]] of ''Classics'' Skywarp showed [[:File:Classics Skywarp toy.jpg|a more detailed color scheme]] than the actual released figure. Much like ''Classics'' Ultra Magnus, the changes were most likely due to an overabundance of [[paint operation]]s. This more detailed version was shown at [[BotCon 2006]], and at least one sample found its way to a collector's hands. The sample also used the original Starscream mold, and not the retooled version mentioned above.

[[File:MP-6 Skywarp.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|Takara finally remembered what colors the Seekers are supposed to be.]]
*'''Skywarp''' (2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MP-6'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 "Machine Guns", 2 AIM missile racks, Doctor Arkeville pilot, Megatron Gun clasp, display stand

: ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' Skywarp was released in Japan in September of 2007. He is a redeco of the ''Masterpiece'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Starscream]] mold in black, gray, silver, and purple, though the purple and silver are more minimal than usual. Skywarp is able to switch between a minimally retooled stoic face and a new snarly face, retooled from Starscream's previous smirk. The tiny [[Doctor Arkeville]] pilot figurine (this time molded black) is also included, as well as a clasp for jet mode Skywarp to hold the gun mode Megatron that came with [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys|Masterpiece Convoy/20th Anniversary Optimus Prime]].

[[File:MPSkywarp stickers.jpg|upright=1.1|left|thumb|Sadly, no stair-pusher sticker.]]
: The sticker sheet includes Skywarp-esque stripes, as well as several whimsical squadron markings.

:The second pressing of ''Masterpiece'' Skywarp (released in October 2008) features an assembly error: his left and right pectorals are flipped. This misassembly does not affect transformation at all, and is really only noticeable when compared to prior ''Masterpiece'' Seekers. The September 2007 pressing of ''Masterpiece'' Skywarp is assembled correctly. ''Masterpiece'' Thundercracker is misassembled as well.

:It is a common misconception that the stoic face on Takara's ''Masterpiece'' Starscream, Skywarp, and Thundercracker are the same, when all of them are in fact different sculpts.

:This mold was later used for the ''Masterpiece'' version of [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Thundercracker]]. It was also redecoed and retooled to create the eleventh ''Masterpiece'' figure, [[Starscream (G1)/toys#MP11|Starscream]].

**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MP-11SW'''
***''Accessories:'' [[Megatron (G1)/toys#MP11SW|Megatron Gun]], Doctor Arkeville pilot

:A redeco of the newer ''Masterpiece'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#MP11|MP-11 Starscream]] mold, Skywarp features some extensive retooling to wind the ''Masterpiece'' Seeker design back into the more Generation 1-accurate look, with most of the robot mode being newly tooled parts, including chunkier legs that now incorporate his tail-fins, [[retool]]ed shoulders and wingtips that no longer curve into one another, a new head (with collapsible head fins), new heel spurs that flip out for added support in robot mode, and re-engineered Machine Guns attached to extending armatures that mean they no longer have to be [[Partformer|removed]] for transformation.

:The figure features flip-up missile racks built into his pectorals. He comes with the original version of the Megatron gun that first came with ''Masterpiece'' [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#20th Anniversary/Masterpiece|Optimus Prime]]. He also comes with a Doctor Arkeville pilot figure identical to the previous MP-6 release.

:Skywarp's deco is heavily based on his cartoon appearance and features the rarely reproduced in toy form entirely purple shoulders and arm cannons. Despite the focus on cartoon accuracy in his deco, he carries over the striping on his forearms, shoulders, and pectorals similar to his original MP-6 Masterpiece release.

:Skywarp was only released in China via Hasbro Asia under the TakaraTomy label; marking the second time an original TakaraTomy Masterpiece toy wasn't released for the Japanese market ([[Megatron (G1)/toys#MasterpieceGoldMegs|Masterpiece Megatron Gold Version]] was the first).

:On [[November 30]], [[2016]] MP-11SW Skywarp was released in Japan for the first time as a [[TakaraTomy Mall]] exclusive. There are notable differences between this release and the original almost two years prior. The shade of purple used on the later release is more warm and less cool in tone. His biceps and knee flaps are now molded in black plastic rather than in purple plastic painted a glossy black. The inner portion of his upper chest is no longer painted silver mold molded in silver plastic. Many of the paint operations are also slightly different in color from the earlier Hasbro Asia release. Hasbro Asia also re-released the figure to coincide with the Japanese release.

:When purchased from a seller supplied by Hasbro Asia, Skywarp comes with a collector coin, mounted on a card resembling his wings, complete with his signature wing stripes. The coin was reissued in 2016, without change, alongside the figure.

: [[Titanium Series]] ''[[War Within (toyline)|War Within]]'' Skywarp is a redeco of [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Titanium Series|Thundercracker]], transforming into a Cybertronian "tetrajet" as reimagined by [[Don Figueroa]]. As with all 6-inch Titanium Cybertron Heroes, he is constructed mostly of fully painted die-cast metal. He was available only at [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] after the Titanium line had already been cancelled, and also Hasbro Toy Shop's booth at {{w|San Diego Comic-Con}} 2008.

*'''Skywarp''' (Deluxe, 2008)

: ''[[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (toyline)|Henkei! Henkei!]]'' Skywarp is a [[Toy Hobby Market]] exclusive redeco of ''Henkei! Henkei!'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys|Starscream]]. Skywarp and his fellow [[Seeker (body-type)|Seeker]] [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys|Thundercracker]] were opened for pre-order on [[May 22]]nd through [[June 20]], and mailed out in September 2008.

:Soon after release, there were numerous complaints from both Japanese and Western collectors about the poor quality control for both Thundercracker and Skywarp. Skywarp's most common fault was missing paint for one of his shoulders. Some reported both toys suffering misassembly issues such as having two left or two right thighs.

:Several minor changes were made to this mold for this release. The holes for his missile launchers in his arms were widened, as were the launcher's insertion pegs. The wing's missile launcher insertion points were lengthened and are now curved at the end. The last rectangle on his air intakes was further modified from the [[Transformers: Classics|Classics]] version, this time the bottom most rectangle goes completely across the air intake's surface rather than just the center. ''Henkei! Henkei!'' Thundercracker and ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 franchise)|Universe]]'' Starscream also saw most of these changes.

*'''Masterpiece Skywarp''' (2009)
**''Accessories:'' 2 "Machine Guns", 2 missile racks, Doctor Arkeville pilot figurine, gun clip, two-piece display stand
: A [[Walmart]] exclusive redeco of the original ''Masterpiece'' Starscream mold. Just like Starscream, Skywarp is able to switch between two different faces. This release uses the Starscream's stoic and smirking alternate faces rather than the Takara ''Masterpiece'' Skywarp's newly-tooled stoic and snarling faces. Hasbro designer [[Joe Kyde]] felt the alternate snarling face did not fit Skywarp's prankster personality, so he went with the Starscream smirk face instead when designing the deco for Hasbro's release. As a result of gang molding, Skywarp also uses Starscream's stoic face, the decision being the difference between Skywarp and Starscream's stoic face was negligible enough not to make a significant difference. The toy also features a more G1 toy styled deco rather than cartoon-based, particularly in the yellow eye color and wing stripes. His purple more closely matches that of the original toy than the purple used on the Takara version, and features a lighter flat black, like the original toy, instead of Takara's darker glossy black. The Hasbro version replaces some of the dark gray of the Takara version with a dark silver, removes the arm and chest striping, but adds additional red detailing, while removing some as well. Much like Hasbro's Starscream, he does not feature any of the warning or slogan tampographs, but features tampographed striping, Decepticon symbols, and some additional paint details not present on the Takara version. The nosecone features black paint over purple plastic, allowing for easy customization of "Mexican Masterpiece Skywarp".
: The tiny Doctor Arkeville pilot figurine (molded in black with no paint applications) is also included, as well as a clasp for jet mode Skywarp to hold the gun mode Megatron that came with ''Masterpiece'' Convoy/20th Anniversary Optimus Prime and a stand (featuring Skywarp's name) with a support beam for jet or robot mode.
: Masterpiece Skywarp was also available as an Argos exclusive in the [[United Kingdom]].

:Skywarp's original toy was reissued again as part of TakaraTomy's ''[[Transformers Encore|Encore]]'' series, this time in a two-pack with his erstwhile partner, Thundercracker. This release of the figure replaced his Decepticon symbol stickers with [[tampograph]]s, and changed his purple stickers to a much bluer shade. Curiously, although Thundercracker's wing stripes were replaced with tampographs, Skywarp's remained factory-applied stickers.

**''Japanese ID number:'' '''A-04'''

:Skywarp is a [[retool]] of the simultaneously released ''[[Transformers: Alternity|Alternity]]'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Alternity|Starscream]] with a new head, transforming into a licensed 1:32 scale {{w|Mitsuoka Orochi}}. Like the other toys in the line, he features [[die-cast]] metal parts and rubber tires, as well as an opening hood, trunk and doors. This is also currently the only ''Alternity'' mold to feature [[Kibble#"Faux-parts"|a fake kibble chest]].

:In car mode, small wings are ''supposed to'' be able to flip out from under Skywarp's rear wheels, giving him the appearance of a flying car. Unfortunately, this [[gimmick]] suffers from a rather nasty [[design flaw]]: there is simply not enough clearance under the car for the wheels to be able to pass and hinge through, and attempting to do so will result in the plastic reinforcement struts underneath ''deforming the rims and chipping the tires''. His door panels also tend to detach from their [[ball joint]]s ''very easily''.

:This mold, with Skywarp's head, was also used to make [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Alternity|Thundercracker]] and [[Banzai-Tron (G1)#Alternity|Banzai-Tron]].

He transforms into an F-15 with many fuselage details borrowed from the Masterpiece version. This is also the first Seeker mold in many years to attempt an entirely new transformation, with the arms now forming the rear of the jet and the legs folding under the wings. Skywarp was available only in Japan, and like many Japanese "EZ Collection" toys, was [[blindpacking|blindpacked]].

These same Kreon accessories were also used for [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Starscream]] and [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Thundercracker]].

: A variation of Skywarp exists where initial versions of the figure feature chrome purple toes. Later versions omitted this detail. The [[stock photography]], by the way, shows him with purple-plastic legs rather than black.

: This version of Skywarp is heavily based on his cartoon appearance. He features a glossy black, a medium warm purple, shiny metallic purple paint on most of his purple plastic, and an amber cockpit. Paint operations found on the Henkei! Henkei! release were shuffled around for the sake of cartoon accuracy, up to and including purple shoulders.
: Original photos of Skywarp showed him with show-accurate all purple arm cannons, but due to gang molding (and lack of additional paint operations) only the upper most portion of his arm cannons ended up purple.

: Part of the [[TakaraTomy]] ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' line, ''[[Transformers: Fall of Cybertron|Fall of Cybertron]]'' Skywarp is a redeco of ''Fall of Cybertron'' [[Starscream (WFC)#Generations|Starscream]], and transforms into a Cybertronian jet fighter. His color layout is based on that seen in ''War for Cybertron'' promotional material, with purple wings, although much of the black is replaced with a dark metallic gray.

:Skywarp comes with two spinning, triple-barreled "assault cannons" which can combine to form a larger hand-held weapon that is geared to spin its two triple-barrels together, and resembles the [[Neutron assault rifle]] from ''Fall of Cybertron''. Each of the weapon halves features two [[5mm post]]s, as well as a peg-hole on their hollow sides, while the combined form features another peg-hole at the top, but makes the peg-holes on the hollow sides inaccessible. Skywarp features numerous 5mm peg-holes, such as his hands, forearms, lower legs, and wing undersides. Additionally, his tail-fin is attached via a 5mm post on its underside, and can be detached to reveal three additional peg-holes, with two of these peg-holes being just the right distance to accommodate the two pegs found on the underside of the combined assault cannons/rifle, with the tail-fin pegging on the rifle's top peg-hole. This allows the weapon to mount on top of the vehicle mode, and store on his back in robot mode.

This allows the weapon to mount on top of the vehicle mode, and store on his back in robot mode.

:Skywarp is minimally mis-transformed in-package: his jet mode nosecone is extended, rather than folded in as it should be in robot mode. He comes packaged with a copy of [[IDW Publishing|IDW]]'s [[Winners & Losers: Dark Cybertron Chapter 3|''Robots in Disguise'' #23]].

:Despite using a mold matching [[Skywarp (WFC)|Skywarp]]'s appearance in ''[[Transformers: War for Cybertron (franchise)|War for Cybertron]]'', this toy ''technically'' represents G1 Skywarp, thanks to his [[IDW Publishing|IDW]] pack-in fiction.

*'''Skywarp''' (Legion Class, 2015)
:Legion Class Skywarp is yet another redeco of ''Reveal the Shield'' [[Legends Class (2005)|Legends Class]] Starscream, which features the retooled wings and hands originally created for [[Transformers: Generations#Asian market exclusives ("GDO")|''Generations'' GDO]] Legends Class [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Legends|Thundercracker]]. Aside from that, the figure's deco is mostly identical to [[#Chronicle|the ''Chronicle EZ Collection'' figure]] listed above, although the purple [[paint operation]]s sport a more blue hue, the purple paint operations on his shins are omitted entirely, and the [[tampograph]]ed Decepticon insignias on the wings are purple with silver outlines rather than completely silver.<ref name="2014legion">[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-feedback/1040836-classic-legion-skywarp.html Review of 2014 Legion Class Skywarp] at TFW2005, including a comparison with ''EZ Collection'' Skywarp.</ref>

:Skywarp comes in packaging that is based on the packaging design for the concurrently released ''Combiner Wars''-era ''Generations'' figures, but replaces the name ''Generations'' with "Authentic Transformers". Since Skywarp and his [[wave]]-mates ship with three figures previously released under what we consider a generic [[Transformers (2014 toyline)|''Transformers'' (2014) toy line]], all of them now in the new packaging style, we consider Skywarp to be part of that line as well. The wave that contains Skywarp has thus far been found at Fred's, Gordmans, Dollar General and Family Dollar stores in the United States, but was available at general retail in Hong Kong and from Australian Target stores.

*'''Hellwarp''' (2015-[[March 21|03-21]])
**''ID number:'' '''TFC-D04'''
**''Accessories:'' 1 missile

: Hellwarp is a black, purple and grey [[redeco]] of [[Transformers: Generations|''Generations'']] Voyager Class [[Sky-Byte (RID)#Generations|Sky-Byte]] as a both roundabout and direct homage to [[Beast Wars II: Super Lifeform Transformers (franchise)|''Beast Wars II'']] [[Starscream (BWII)#Hellscream|Hellscream]]. He transforms into a bio-mechanical great white shark and is armed with a gear-activated spinning claw weapon that can fire a missile. His [[beast mode]] articulation consists of an opening mouth and a tail that moves up and down. There is a hexagonal peghole underneath him which is compatible with some collector display stands. As with the rest of the ''Cloud'' Decepticons, Hellwarp is an [[e-HOBBY]] exclusive, and he comes with the "[[TFC-D04]]" comic.

:A redeco and minor retool of ''[[Q-Transformers]]'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Q-Transformers|Starscream]], Skywarp transforms from a [[super deformed]] F-15 to a cute chubby little robot. His facial expression has been changed from Starscream's smirk into a crazy grin.

:This mold was also retooled into ''Q-Transformers'' [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Q-Transformers|Thundercracker]] and [[Jetfire (G1)/toys#Q-Transformers|Jetfire]].

:During the second ''Q-Transformers'' series, the Skywarp toy was available in a three-pack alongside [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Q-Transformers|Starscream]] and [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Q-Transformers|Thundercracker]]. He is identical to the original ''Q-Transformers'' toy.

===Decoy===
[[File:Decoy skywarp.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.2|Mini-wave in celebration of me! WooOOoo!]]
*'''Destron Hero Collection 22''' (multi-pack, 1986)

:Skywarp was among the many characters rendered by [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] as part of their series of 1.5" ''keshigomu'' figurines. Like all the Decepticons in the series, Skywarp was molded in soft purple rubber, and featured a number sculpted into his back that was the sum total of his [[Tech Spec]]s, for use in the various games that could be played with the figurines. He is, surprisingly enough, ''not'' identical to either Starscream or Thundercracker: the stance of his legs and the position of his Decepticon symbols differ, but he is, of course, most prominently distinguished by his raised arms.

:Skywarp was available as part of a 22-piece box set of Decepticon figures, in a peach coloration randomly packed in several box sets and with other products produced by Takara subsidiary [[Seven]], and in a wide variety of colours in "gachapon" capsule machines.

*'''Skywarp''' (1987)
**''Decoy number:'' '''33'''

: The Skywarp figurine was later brought over to [[Hasbro]] markets as part of the [[Decoy]] promotion, largely identical to the Japanese release except for the fact that the number on his back was replaced with a simple "checklist" number (33, in Skywarp's case). Like all Decepticon Decoys, he was a randomly-chosen pack-in available with the carded [[Throttlebot]]s, [[Aerialbot (G1)|Aerialbots]], [[Protectobot (G1)|Protectobots]] and [[Technobot (G1)|Technobots]], and was, very early on in the promotion, available in an alternate red coloration that was only packed in with the Throttlebots. Unsurprisingly, this red figurine is much rarer.

*'''Skywarp''' (Lucky Draw figure, 2001)

: ''[[Super Collection Figure]]'' Skywarp is a non-transforming three-inch tall [[plastic|PVC]] figurine, [[redeco]]ed from ''SCF'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys|Starscream]]. Limited to 200 pieces, he was only available as the second place prize in a [[Lucky Draw figure|Lucky Draw]] contest held in conjunction with the first edition of ''[[Transformers Generations]]'' (with the "[[Starscream (G1)/toys#SecretStarscream|Secret Starscream]]" toy as the first place prize). Due to the bankruptcy of the ''Transformers: Generations'' publisher, [[Keibunsha]], it is unknown whether the Japanese version of Skywarp was ever actually sent out or not.

: This mold was also used to make ''Super Collection Figure'' [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys|Thundercracker]] and ''[[Heroes of Cybertron]]'' (see below) Starscream, Thundercracker, [[Sunstorm (G1)|Sunstorm]] and the [[Air Warrior]]s.

===Heroes of Cybertron===
[[File:HOC skywarp.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.2]]
*'''Skywarp''' (2002)
: When the ''Super Collection Figure'' line was brought to the US as ''[[Heroes of Cybertron]]'', Skywarp was widely released as part of the first wave. As was the standard for the line, Skywarp was made from translucent red plastic that was mostly painted over, giving him [[light-piping|light-piped]] eyes. In addition, he is distinguished from his ''Super Collection Figure'' counterpart by grey knee-vents and black foot-panels, versus the respetive purple and grey applications on the original (though several samples of the figure were missing the foot-panel paint, including the one shown at the TFU link below).

[[File:OTFCCSkywarp.jpg|thumb|Doesn't so much teleport as not exist in the first place.]]

: A redeco of ''Mega Super Figure Collection'' G1 Starscream (minus the extra coronation accessories), Skywarp was to be among the first of the fan club exclusives offered by [[BotCon#BotCon history|OTFCC]] as well as the first in their ''Legends of Cybertron'' line. The figure was delayed and never saw a full release due to [[3H Productions|3H Enterprises]] losing the license to run the official Transformers fan club. At least a couple of sample versions were produced, of those most (but not all) had the open-palm hands and the hand wielding Megatron in gun mode painted blue rather than the correct purple.

He can stand normally or use a stand to take on a "hovering" pose. Skywarp was limited to 300 pieces, and sculpted by [[3L Creation Group]] from a design by [[George Tremarco]].

: Skywarp was among the planned ''Transformers [[Attacktix]]'' game pieces that were showed at some conventions, but went unreleased as the line was canceled. He was to be a [[retool]] of sorts of the similarly unreleased ''[[Transformers: Energon (franchise)|Energon]]'' [[Starscream (Armada)|Starscream]], using the same weapon and base but a brand new jet mold. Skywarp would've been able to detach from his base and fly on a string, enabling him to get better shots at opposing pieces. Any other details about his role in the game are unknown.

Featuring eight ball-jointed points of articulation. Unlike the other [[1984]] style Seekers, a Skywarp is not a redeco of the Starscream and Thundercracker figurine from the first wave (who were later redecoed to create the [[Rainmaker]] trio and [[Sunstorm (G1)|Sunstorm]]), but an all new mold with different construction and parts than his predecessors. He is slightly larger than the other '84 Seekers and features more moving parts. He does share some parts with the simultaneously released [[Ramjet (G1)/toys|Ramjet]], [[Thrust (G1)/toys|Thrust]], and fellow chase figure [[Dirge (G1)/toys|Dirge]]. For every 96 figures from wave 2 of The Loyal Subjects, there is 1 Skywarp.

*'''Skywarp''' (09-2015)
**''ID number:'' 48
**''Accessories:'' Scowling face, smirking face, shouting face, open hand, closed hands, mini F15 jet

:A super deformed Skywarp model kit produced by [[Kotobukiya]] as part of their franchise-spanning ''[[D-Style]]'' line. Like [[Megatron (G1)/merchandise#D-Style|Megatron]] he comes with three different faces and in line with the rest of the line, comes with a mini alt mode figure, in this case an F15 jet. He also contains a replaceable open hand. His chest contains flip-up panels in his chest that reveal missile racks based on the weapons seen in the Generation 1 episode "Fire on the Mountain". The null rays can be removed and wielded as guns, and he can also hold Megatron's gun.

:In order to get the figure looking like the promotional photos, required paint applications include coloring the screaming mouth, chest fans and panel lines, missile rack surrounds, null ray panel lines, and knee vents all in black. Eyes and cockpit come in translucent colored plastic and can also be painted to improve their look. Finally, the mini F15 jet comes as a single black piece and is missing all coloring.

:He comes in a two pack along with [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#D-Style|Thundercracker]].

:This mold was also used to make ''D-Style'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#D-Style|Starscream]].

He stands 6" tall and is articulated, featuring a shiny metallic color scheme, removable armor and replacement hands. He also features LED light up eyes, Decepticon insignias on his wings, null rays and thrusters in his feet, for use when he's "hovering", mounted on the included display stand.

:This figure was also redecoed with a different new face into Mecha Nations [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Mecha Nations|Thundercracker]], with whom he was a 2015 Toy Soul exhibition exclusive.

===Bitfig===

*'''Skywarp''' (06-2017)
:Part of the second wave of Transformers Bitfig capsule toys, Skywarp's is a redco of the previously released Starscream toy whose design is inspired by his appearance in the G1 cartoon. Skywarp is articulated at the neck and shoulders. Bitfig toys were packaged in capsules color coded to the toy they contained.

==Notes==
[[File:Skywarpatron.jpg|right|upright=0.85|thumb]]
*In a possible fit of madness, a triple changer was proposed that would switch between Skywarp (possibly mistaken for Starscream), [[Megatron (G1)/toys|Megatron]], and Skywarp's jet mode.
*In modern times, Skywarp is often the last of the three primary Decepticon Seekers to see the use of a toyline's respective Seeker mold. This often leads to his figures becoming prominent shelfwarmers at the tail end of a line's run.

{{suite}}
[[File:G1Skywarp package art.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.67]]
[[Skywarp (G1)|Skywarp]] has always looked and will always look a lot like [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]]. There are many [[Starscream (G1)/toys|toys of Starscream]] and where there is a Starscream toy, a Skywarp toy soon follows.

==Toys==
===The Transformers===
[[File:G1toy skywarp.jpg|right|thumb|upright=2.2]][[File:G1catalog84-DecepticonPlanes-Redeco.jpg|right|thumb]]
*'''Skywarp''' (Decepticon Jet, 1984/1985)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''23'''
**''Accessories:'' Left & right fists, 2 missile launchers, 2 missiles, 2 "Machine Guns", left & right wings, left & right rudders, left & right tail fins, landing gear

: Skywarp began life as a ''[[Diaclone]]'' "Jet Robo", but unlike team-mates [[Starscream (G1)/toys|Starscream]] and [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys|Thundercracker]], with whom he shares his mold, his distinctive black-and-purple deco did ''not'' originate in that line. Skywarp transforms into an {{w|F-15 Eagle}} fighter jet, by a process which essentially involves removing and reattaching most of his plane parts. Though it is possible to do so without removing all of them, this rather piecemeal design and the fact that neither mode uses all his parts means it can be quite difficult to find an intact original Skywarp on the secondary market.

:Skywarp is armed with a pair of missile launchers that mount on his arms in robot mode, and under his wings in jet mode, with a pair of specialized projectiles for each. In jet mode, two short rockets are fitted into the launchers to make them resemble the drop tanks a real F-15 carries, while in robot mode, they are replaced with the long barrels of Skywarp's machine guns. The original ''Diaclone'' version of the mold featured spring-loaded firing mechanisms in these launchers; while this feature was removed for the [[Hasbro]] release of the toy, it was left intact for the [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] version, and all subsequent reissues.

:While the earliest releases of Skywarp were basically identical to the ''Diaclone'' mold, some small modifications were soon made to the figure which became the standard for all subsequent reissues of the mold. These included the hollowing out of the inner edges of his wings and the tips of his tail-wings, the lengthening of the pegs on his wings, and the addition of extra clips on the inner sides of his fist-gauntlets, allowing them to grip his arms better but creating a visible slit on them. Like all his 1984 brethren, Skywarp gained a factory-applied [[rubsign]] in 1985, which was added to the left side of his fuselage.

:For some reason, the stats on Skywarp's, Starscream's and Thundercracker's [[Tech Spec]]s were switched around. Skywarp's box was given Starscream's numbers, giving him a high intelligence and rank that stood in contrast to the bio printed next to them.

:Early Hasbro stock photos of Skywarp (right) show him with a plastic purple nosecone. This was changed to a soft, black rubber nosecone when the toy was actually released. However, a [http://tfarchive.com/toys/articles/toypics/mex_skywarp.jpg Mexican variant] retained the purple plastic nosecone. The same stock photos also show him with purple launchers with black triggers and muzzle rings, black feet, black shins, black outer arm panels, purple horizontal stabilizers, and both sets of purple missiles. These stock photos were also later used to promote Takara's 2001 reissue (see below).

:The Italian release of Skywarp (as "Corvo") by [[GiG]] put him in a generic "Distructor Planes" box, featuring names and tech specs for all three planes in the assortment.

:This mold was [[redeco]]ed into [[Sunstorm (G1)|Sunstorm]] and retooled to make [[Dirge (G1)/toys|Dirge]], [[Ramjet (G1)/toys|Ramjet]], and [[Thrust (G1)/toys|Thrust]].

:The original Skywarp toy was reissued for the first time in 2001 as part of Takara's small "[[Collector's Edition]]" series, which made several Generation 1 toys available as convention [[exclusive]]s. Sold in new open-faced packaging with no notable changes from the original figure, Skywarp was an exclusive at the Japanese science fiction convention "Super Festival 21", available only in a set with Thundercracker and limited to 1000 pieces.

:The original Skywarp toy was made available again as part of Hasbro's line of [[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]] reissues. Released in the fourth wave of the series, it featured functional missile launchers for the first time on a Hasbro version of the toy, but because the launchers now worked, both sets of missiles had to be lengthened [[for safety reasons]]. His machine guns didn't turn out ''too'' bad; the missiles didn't fare so well. Rather than correct the erroneous Tech Spec numbers from Skywarp's original release, this reissue retained them and instead features a slightly re-written bio to remove the contradictions.

:''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' Skywarp is a redeco of ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Machines]]'' [[Jetstorm (BM)|Jetstorm]] in his Generation 1 colors. He transforms into a Cybertronic fighter jet, armed with two spring-loaded projectile launchers that can fire orange "energon" bolts. These launchers end up in his arms in robot mode. He has a third robot mode that collapses the legs around the cockpit (oh hush), with flip-out panels revealing an extra pair of thrusters. His [[spark]] crystal, revealed by flipping the purple hatch on his back, has a Decepticon [[insignia]] [[tampograph]]ed on top of it.

:Although most previous versions of the mold have the wingtips swept forward in vehicle mode, Skywarp was packaged and depicted in his instructions with the wingtips swept back. His fictional appearances, however, use the conventional arrangement shown here.

:Skywarp was also used to make ''Beast Machines'' [[Aero Drone|Sonic Attack Jet]], ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 franchise)|Robots in Disguise]]'' [[Storm Jet (RID)|Storm Jet]], and ''Robots in Disguise'' [[Jhiaxus (RID)|Jhiaxus]].

Like all toys in the series, he is a tiny, simplified version of the original Generation 1 toy, transforming into an F-15 fighter jet, with most of the accessories from the original toy faithfully translated save for his machine guns.

He was available only in a two-pack with [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys|Thundercracker]], which also came with a Decepticon sigil pin and chromed missile pods. This set was the very last product released in the ''Robotmasters'' line and wasn't even strictly sold in a box from that series; instead, it used an [[e-HOBBY]] Generation 1 reissue box, with a small ''Robotmasters'' sticker in the corner tab noting its origin from the front.

: ''[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]'' Skywarp is a Target-[[exclusive]] redeco and slight retool of ''Classics'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Classics (2006)|Starscream]], transforming into an [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes|F-15 Eagle fighter jet]], though with a canopy like that of an [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes|F-14 Tomcat]]. Unlike previous (and future) figures, the shade of purple used for this figure has a more reddish tint to it. He comes with a pair of spring-loaded missile launchers that can be mounted on his biceps or used as hand-held weapons in robot mode and can attach under his wings in vehicle mode. As with most ''Classics'' toys, he also features a heat-sensitive [[rubsign]].

: Skywarp was slightly [[retool]]ed from the earlier Starscream figures. The retool is present in the jet intake area. The slope of his shoulders was decreased from Starscream's, and a fifth rectangle was added to the vertical area. This retooled version was used for all subsequent releases of the mold, and was also used as a [[Variant#Running change|running change]] on Starscream.

: He was only available as part of a two-pack with [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#Classics|Ultra Magnus]]. The set's price was $19.99, despite including both a Voyager Class and Deluxe Class mold in it, which would be approximately $30 worth of toys if they had been sold separately. He was also available in Woolworth stores throughout the United Kingdom.

: [[Stock photography]] of ''Classics'' Skywarp showed [[:File:Classics Skywarp toy.jpg|a more detailed color scheme]] than the actual released figure. Much like ''Classics'' Ultra Magnus, the changes were most likely due to an overabundance of [[paint operation]]s. This more detailed version was shown at [[BotCon 2006]], and at least one sample found its way to a collector's hands. The sample also used the original Starscream mold, and not the retooled version mentioned above.

*'''Skywarp''' (2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MP-6'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 "Machine Guns", 2 AIM missile racks, Doctor Arkeville pilot, Megatron Gun clasp, display stand

: ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' Skywarp was released in Japan in September of 2007. He is a redeco of the ''Masterpiece'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Starscream]] mold in black, gray, silver, and purple, though the purple and silver are more minimal than usual. Skywarp is able to switch between a minimally retooled stoic face and a new snarly face, retooled from Starscream's previous smirk. The tiny [[Doctor Arkeville]] pilot figurine (this time molded black) is also included, as well as a clasp for jet mode Skywarp to hold the gun mode Megatron that came with [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys|Masterpiece Convoy/20th Anniversary Optimus Prime]].

[[File:MPSkywarp stickers.jpg|upright=1.1|left|thumb|Sadly, no stair-pusher sticker.]]
: The sticker sheet includes Skywarp-esque stripes, as well as several whimsical squadron markings.

:The second pressing of ''Masterpiece'' Skywarp (released in October 2008) features an assembly error: his left and right pectorals are flipped. This misassembly does not affect transformation at all, and is really only noticeable when compared to prior ''Masterpiece'' Seekers. The September 2007 pressing of ''Masterpiece'' Skywarp is assembled correctly. ''Masterpiece'' Thundercracker is misassembled as well.

:It is a common misconception that the stoic face on Takara's ''Masterpiece'' Starscream, Skywarp, and Thundercracker are the same, when all of them are in fact different sculpts.

:This mold was later used for the ''Masterpiece'' version of [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Thundercracker]]. It was also redecoed and retooled to create the eleventh ''Masterpiece'' figure, [[Starscream (G1)/toys#MP11|Starscream]].

**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MP-11SW'''
***''Accessories:'' [[Megatron (G1)/toys#MP11SW|Megatron Gun]], Doctor Arkeville pilot

:A redeco of the newer ''Masterpiece'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#MP11|MP-11 Starscream]] mold, Skywarp features some extensive retooling to wind the ''Masterpiece'' Seeker design back into the more Generation 1-accurate look, with most of the robot mode being newly tooled parts, including chunkier legs that now incorporate his tail-fins, [[retool]]ed shoulders and wingtips that no longer curve into one another, a new head (with collapsible head fins), new heel spurs that flip out for added support in robot mode, and re-engineered Machine Guns attached to extending armatures that mean they no longer have to be [[Partformer|removed]] for transformation.

:The figure features flip-up missile racks built into his pectorals. He comes with the original version of the Megatron gun that first came with ''Masterpiece'' [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#20th Anniversary/Masterpiece|Optimus Prime]]. He also comes with a Doctor Arkeville pilot figure identical to the previous MP-6 release.

:Skywarp's deco is heavily based on his cartoon appearance and features the rarely reproduced in toy form entirely purple shoulders and arm cannons. Despite the focus on cartoon accuracy in his deco, he carries over the striping on his forearms, shoulders, and pectorals similar to his original MP-6 Masterpiece release.

:Skywarp was only released in China via Hasbro Asia under the TakaraTomy label; marking the second time an original TakaraTomy Masterpiece toy wasn't released for the Japanese market ([[Megatron (G1)/toys#MasterpieceGoldMegs|Masterpiece Megatron Gold Version]] was the first).

:On [[November 30]], [[2016]] MP-11SW Skywarp was released in Japan for the first time as a [[TakaraTomy Mall]] exclusive. There are notable differences between this release and the original almost two years prior. The shade of purple used on the later release is more warm and less cool in tone. His biceps and knee flaps are now molded in black plastic rather than in purple plastic painted a glossy black. The inner portion of his upper chest is no longer painted silver mold molded in silver plastic. Many of the paint operations are also slightly different in color from the earlier Hasbro Asia release. Hasbro Asia also re-released the figure to coincide with the Japanese release.

:When purchased from a seller supplied by Hasbro Asia, Skywarp comes with a collector coin, mounted on a card resembling his wings, complete with his signature wing stripes. The coin was reissued in 2016, without change, alongside the figure.

: [[Titanium Series]] ''[[War Within (toyline)|War Within]]'' Skywarp is a redeco of [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Titanium Series|Thundercracker]], transforming into a Cybertronian "tetrajet" as reimagined by [[Don Figueroa]]. As with all 6-inch Titanium Cybertron Heroes, he is constructed mostly of fully painted die-cast metal. He was available only at [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] after the Titanium line had already been cancelled, and also Hasbro Toy Shop's booth at {{w|San Diego Comic-Con}} 2008.

*'''Skywarp''' (Deluxe, 2008)

: ''[[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (toyline)|Henkei! Henkei!]]'' Skywarp is a [[Toy Hobby Market]] exclusive redeco of ''Henkei! Henkei!'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys|Starscream]]. Skywarp and his fellow [[Seeker (body-type)|Seeker]] [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys|Thundercracker]] were opened for pre-order on [[May 22]]nd through [[June 20]], and mailed out in September 2008.

:Soon after release, there were numerous complaints from both Japanese and Western collectors about the poor quality control for both Thundercracker and Skywarp. Skywarp's most common fault was missing paint for one of his shoulders. Some reported both toys suffering misassembly issues such as having two left or two right thighs.

:Several minor changes were made to this mold for this release. The holes for his missile launchers in his arms were widened, as were the launcher's insertion pegs. The wing's missile launcher insertion points were lengthened and are now curved at the end. The last rectangle on his air intakes was further modified from the [[Transformers: Classics|Classics]] version, this time the bottom most rectangle goes completely across the air intake's surface rather than just the center. ''Henkei! Henkei!'' Thundercracker and ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 franchise)|Universe]]'' Starscream also saw most of these changes.

*'''Masterpiece Skywarp''' (2009)
**''Accessories:'' 2 "Machine Guns", 2 missile racks, Doctor Arkeville pilot figurine, gun clip, two-piece display stand
: A [[Walmart]] exclusive redeco of the original ''Masterpiece'' Starscream mold. Just like Starscream, Skywarp is able to switch between two different faces. This release uses the Starscream's stoic and smirking alternate faces rather than the Takara ''Masterpiece'' Skywarp's newly-tooled stoic and snarling faces. Hasbro designer [[Joe Kyde]] felt the alternate snarling face did not fit Skywarp's prankster personality, so he went with the Starscream smirk face instead when designing the deco for Hasbro's release. As a result of gang molding, Skywarp also uses Starscream's stoic face, the decision being the difference between Skywarp and Starscream's stoic face was negligible enough not to make a significant difference. The toy also features a more G1 toy styled deco rather than cartoon-based, particularly in the yellow eye color and wing stripes. His purple more closely matches that of the original toy than the purple used on the Takara version, and features a lighter flat black, like the original toy, instead of Takara's darker glossy black. The Hasbro version replaces some of the dark gray of the Takara version with a dark silver, removes the arm and chest striping, but adds additional red detailing, while removing some as well. Much like Hasbro's Starscream, he does not feature any of the warning or slogan tampographs, but features tampographed striping, Decepticon symbols, and some additional paint details not present on the Takara version. The nosecone features black paint over purple plastic, allowing for easy customization of "Mexican Masterpiece Skywarp".
: The tiny Doctor Arkeville pilot figurine (molded in black with no paint applications) is also included, as well as a clasp for jet mode Skywarp to hold the gun mode Megatron that came with ''Masterpiece'' Convoy/20th Anniversary Optimus Prime and a stand (featuring Skywarp's name) with a support beam for jet or robot mode.
: Masterpiece Skywarp was also available as an Argos exclusive in the [[United Kingdom]].

:Skywarp's original toy was reissued again as part of TakaraTomy's ''[[Transformers Encore|Encore]]'' series, this time in a two-pack with his erstwhile partner, Thundercracker. This release of the figure replaced his Decepticon symbol stickers with [[tampograph]]s, and changed his purple stickers to a much bluer shade. Curiously, although Thundercracker's wing stripes were replaced with tampographs, Skywarp's remained factory-applied stickers.

**''Japanese ID number:'' '''A-04'''

:Skywarp is a [[retool]] of the simultaneously released ''[[Transformers: Alternity|Alternity]]'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Alternity|Starscream]] with a new head, transforming into a licensed 1:32 scale {{w|Mitsuoka Orochi}}. Like the other toys in the line, he features [[die-cast]] metal parts and rubber tires, as well as an opening hood, trunk and doors. This is also currently the only ''Alternity'' mold to feature [[Kibble#"Faux-parts"|a fake kibble chest]].

:In car mode, small wings are ''supposed to'' be able to flip out from under Skywarp's rear wheels, giving him the appearance of a flying car. Unfortunately, this [[gimmick]] suffers from a rather nasty [[design flaw]]: there is simply not enough clearance under the car for the wheels to be able to pass and hinge through, and attempting to do so will result in the plastic reinforcement struts underneath ''deforming the rims and chipping the tires''. His door panels also tend to detach from their [[ball joint]]s ''very easily''.

:This mold, with Skywarp's head, was also used to make [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Alternity|Thundercracker]] and [[Banzai-Tron (G1)#Alternity|Banzai-Tron]].

He transforms into an F-15 with many fuselage details borrowed from the Masterpiece version. This is also the first Seeker mold in many years to attempt an entirely new transformation, with the arms now forming the rear of the jet and the legs folding under the wings. Skywarp was available only in Japan, and like many Japanese "EZ Collection" toys, was [[blindpacking|blindpacked]].

These same Kreon accessories were also used for [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Starscream]] and [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Thundercracker]].

: A variation of Skywarp exists where initial versions of the figure feature chrome purple toes. Later versions omitted this detail. The [[stock photography]], by the way, shows him with purple-plastic legs rather than black.

: This version of Skywarp is heavily based on his cartoon appearance. He features a glossy black, a medium warm purple, shiny metallic purple paint on most of his purple plastic, and an amber cockpit. Paint operations found on the Henkei! Henkei! release were shuffled around for the sake of cartoon accuracy, up to and including purple shoulders.
: Original photos of Skywarp showed him with show-accurate all purple arm cannons, but due to gang molding (and lack of additional paint operations) only the upper most portion of his arm cannons ended up purple.

: Part of the [[TakaraTomy]] ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' line, ''[[Transformers: Fall of Cybertron|Fall of Cybertron]]'' Skywarp is a redeco of ''Fall of Cybertron'' [[Starscream (WFC)#Generations|Starscream]], and transforms into a Cybertronian jet fighter. His color layout is based on that seen in ''War for Cybertron'' promotional material, with purple wings, although much of the black is replaced with a dark metallic gray.

:Skywarp comes with two spinning, triple-barreled "assault cannons" which can combine to form a larger hand-held weapon that is geared to spin its two triple-barrels together, and resembles the [[Neutron assault rifle]] from ''Fall of Cybertron''. Each of the weapon halves features two [[5mm post]]s, as well as a peg-hole on their hollow sides, while the combined form features another peg-hole at the top, but makes the peg-holes on the hollow sides inaccessible. Skywarp features numerous 5mm peg-holes, such as his hands, forearms, lower legs, and wing undersides. Additionally, his tail-fin is attached via a 5mm post on its underside, and can be detached to reveal three additional peg-holes, with two of these peg-holes being just the right distance to accommodate the two pegs found on the underside of the combined assault cannons/rifle, with the tail-fin pegging on the rifle's top peg-hole. This allows the weapon to mount on top of the vehicle mode, and store on his back in robot mode.

This allows the weapon to mount on top of the vehicle mode, and store on his back in robot mode.

:Skywarp is minimally mis-transformed in-package: his jet mode nosecone is extended, rather than folded in as it should be in robot mode. He comes packaged with a copy of [[IDW Publishing|IDW]]'s [[Winners & Losers: Dark Cybertron Chapter 3|''Robots in Disguise'' #23]].

:Despite using a mold matching [[Skywarp (WFC)|Skywarp]]'s appearance in ''[[Transformers: War for Cybertron (franchise)|War for Cybertron]]'', this toy ''technically'' represents G1 Skywarp, thanks to his [[IDW Publishing|IDW]] pack-in fiction. Consequently, the toy is listed in the former's page as a [[repurposing]].

:This mold was also used to make ''Alt-Modes'' [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Alt-Modes|Thundercracker]], [[Acid Storm (G1)#Alt-Modes|Acid Storm]] and [[Sunstorm (G1)#Alt-Modes|Sunstorm]], and would have been retooled into [[Dirge (G1)/toys#Alt-Modes|Dirge]].

===Hero Mashers===
*'''Megatron''' (Battle Upgrade, 2014)
**''Pieces: '''14'''
: Part of the first wave of battle upgrade Hero Mashers toys, [[Megatron (G1)/toys#Hero Mashers|Megatron]] is a non-transforming robot who is chock full of weaponry. He includes an Energon flail, a ''massive'' projectile launching fusion cannon, and a backpack with removable missile packs. His parts can be removed and swapped out with any other Hero Mashers toy.

:He also includes Skywarp's arm which is a repaint of [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Hero Mashers|Starscream]]'s.

*'''Skywarp''' (Legion Class, 2015)
:Legion Class Skywarp is yet another redeco of ''Reveal the Shield'' [[Legends Class (2005)|Legends Class]] Starscream, which features the retooled wings and hands originally created for [[Transformers: Generations#Asian market exclusives ("GDO")|''Generations'' GDO]] Legends Class [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Legends|Thundercracker]]. Aside from that, the figure's deco is mostly identical to [[#Chronicle|the ''Chronicle EZ Collection'' figure]] listed above, although the purple [[paint operation]]s sport a more blue hue, the purple paint operations on his shins are omitted entirely, and the [[tampograph]]ed Decepticon insignias on the wings are purple with silver outlines rather than completely silver.<ref name="2014legion">[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-feedback/1040836-classic-legion-skywarp.html Review of 2014 Legion Class Skywarp] at TFW2005, including a comparison with ''EZ Collection'' Skywarp.</ref>

:Skywarp comes in packaging that is based on the packaging design for the concurrently released ''Combiner Wars''-era ''Generations'' figures, but replaces the name ''Generations'' with "Authentic Transformers". Since Skywarp and his [[wave]]-mates ship with three figures previously released under what we consider a generic [[Transformers (2014 toyline)|''Transformers'' (2014) toy line]], all of them now in the new packaging style, we consider Skywarp to be part of that line as well. The wave that contains Skywarp has thus far been found at Fred's, Gordmans, Dollar General and Family Dollar stores in the United States, but was available at general retail in Hong Kong and from Australian Target stores.

===Cloud===

*'''Hellwarp''' (2015-[[March 21|03-21]])
**''ID number:'' '''TFC-D04'''
**''Accessories:'' 1 missile

: Hellwarp is a black, purple and grey [[redeco]] of [[Transformers: Generations|''Generations'']] Voyager Class [[Sky-Byte (RID)#Generations|Sky-Byte]] as a both roundabout and direct homage to [[Beast Wars II: Super Lifeform Transformers (franchise)|''Beast Wars II'']] [[Starscream (BWII)#Hellscream|Hellscream]]. He transforms into a bio-mechanical great white shark and is armed with a gear-activated spinning claw weapon that can fire a missile. His [[beast mode]] articulation consists of an opening mouth and a tail that moves up and down. There is a hexagonal peghole underneath him which is compatible with some collector display stands. As with the rest of the ''Cloud'' Decepticons, Hellwarp is an [[e-HOBBY]] exclusive, and he comes with the "[[TFC-D04]]" comic.

:A redeco and minor retool of ''[[Q-Transformers]]'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Q-Transformers|Starscream]], Skywarp transforms from a [[super deformed]] F-15 to a cute chubby little robot. His facial expression has been changed from Starscream's smirk into a crazy grin.

:This mold was also retooled into ''Q-Transformers'' [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Q-Transformers|Thundercracker]] and [[Jetfire (G1)/toys#Q-Transformers|Jetfire]].

*'''Decepticons 3-Figure Set''' (2016)

:During the second ''Q-Transformers'' series, the Skywarp toy was available in a three-pack alongside [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Q-Transformers|Starscream]] and [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Q-Transformers|Thundercracker]]. He is identical to the original ''Q-Transformers'' toy.

===Decoy===
[[File:Decoy skywarp.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.2|Mini-wave in celebration of me! WooOOoo!]]
*'''Destron Hero Collection 22''' (multi-pack, 1986)

:Skywarp was among the many characters rendered by [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] as part of their series of 1.5" ''keshigomu'' figurines. Like all the Decepticons in the series, Skywarp was molded in soft purple rubber, and featured a number sculpted into his back that was the sum total of his [[Tech Spec]]s, for use in the various games that could be played with the figurines. He is, surprisingly enough, ''not'' identical to either Starscream or Thundercracker: the stance of his legs and the position of his Decepticon symbols differ, but he is, of course, most prominently distinguished by his raised arms.

:Skywarp was available as part of a 22-piece box set of Decepticon figures, in a peach coloration randomly packed in several box sets and with other products produced by Takara subsidiary [[Seven]], and in a wide variety of colours in "gachapon" capsule machines.

*'''Skywarp''' (1987)
**''Decoy number:'' '''33'''

: The Skywarp figurine was later brought over to [[Hasbro]] markets as part of the [[Decoy]] promotion, largely identical to the Japanese release except for the fact that the number on his back was replaced with a simple "checklist" number (33, in Skywarp's case). Like all Decepticon Decoys, he was a randomly-chosen pack-in available with the carded [[Throttlebot]]s, [[Aerialbot (G1)|Aerialbots]], [[Protectobot (G1)|Protectobots]] and [[Technobot (G1)|Technobots]], and was, very early on in the promotion, available in an alternate red coloration that was only packed in with the Throttlebots. Unsurprisingly, this red figurine is much rarer.

: ''[[Super Collection Figure]]'' Skywarp is a non-transforming three-inch tall [[plastic|PVC]] figurine, [[redeco]]ed from ''SCF'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys|Starscream]]. Limited to 200 pieces, he was only available as the second place prize in a [[Lucky Draw figure|Lucky Draw]] contest held in conjunction with the first edition of ''[[Transformers Generations]]'' (with the "[[Starscream (G1)/toys#SecretStarscream|Secret Starscream]]" toy as the first place prize). Due to the bankruptcy of the ''Transformers: Generations'' publisher, [[Keibunsha]], it is unknown whether the Japanese version of Skywarp was ever actually sent out or not.

: This mold was also used to make ''Super Collection Figure'' [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys|Thundercracker]] and ''[[Heroes of Cybertron]]'' (see below) Starscream, Thundercracker, [[Sunstorm (G1)|Sunstorm]] and the [[Air Warrior]]s.

*'''Skywarp''' (2002)
: When the ''Super Collection Figure'' line was brought to the US as ''[[Heroes of Cybertron]]'', Skywarp was widely released as part of the first wave. As was the standard for the line, Skywarp was made from translucent red plastic that was mostly painted over, giving him [[light-piping|light-piped]] eyes. In addition, he is distinguished from his ''Super Collection Figure'' counterpart by grey knee-vents and black foot-panels, versus the respetive purple and grey applications on the original (though several samples of the figure were missing the foot-panel paint, including the one shown at the TFU link below).

===Legends of Cybertron===
*'''Skywarp''' (2004, unreleased)

[[File:OTFCCSkywarp.jpg|thumb|Doesn't so much teleport as not exist in the first place.]]

: A redeco of ''Mega Super Figure Collection'' G1 Starscream (minus the extra coronation accessories), Skywarp was to be among the first of the fan club exclusives offered by [[BotCon#BotCon history|OTFCC]] as well as the first in their ''Legends of Cybertron'' line. The figure was delayed and never saw a full release due to [[3H Productions|3H Enterprises]] losing the license to run the official Transformers fan club. At least a couple of sample versions were produced, of those most (but not all) had the open-palm hands and the hand wielding Megatron in gun mode painted blue rather than the correct purple.

He can stand normally or use a stand to take on a "hovering" pose. Skywarp was limited to 300 pieces, and sculpted by [[3L Creation Group]] from a design by [[George Tremarco]].

*'''Skywarp''' (Booster, <s>2007</s>)

: Skywarp was among the planned ''Transformers [[Attacktix]]'' game pieces that were showed at some conventions, but went unreleased as the line was canceled. He was to be a [[retool]] of sorts of the similarly unreleased ''[[Transformers: Energon (franchise)|Energon]]'' [[Starscream (Armada)|Starscream]], using the same weapon and base but a brand new jet mold. Skywarp would've been able to detach from his base and fly on a string, enabling him to get better shots at opposing pieces. Any other details about his role in the game are unknown.

Featuring eight ball-jointed points of articulation. Unlike the other [[1984]] style Seekers, a Skywarp is not a redeco of the Starscream and Thundercracker figurine from the first wave (who were later redecoed to create the [[Rainmaker]] trio and [[Sunstorm (G1)|Sunstorm]]), but an all new mold with different construction and parts than his predecessors. He is slightly larger than the other '84 Seekers and features more moving parts. He does share some parts with the simultaneously released [[Ramjet (G1)/toys|Ramjet]], [[Thrust (G1)/toys|Thrust]], and fellow chase figure [[Dirge (G1)/toys|Dirge]]. For every 96 figures from wave 2 of The Loyal Subjects, there is 1 Skywarp.

*'''Skywarp''' (09-2015)
**''ID number:'' 48
**''Accessories:'' Scowling face, smirking face, shouting face, open hand, closed hands, mini F15 jet

:A super deformed Skywarp model kit produced by [[Kotobukiya]] as part of their franchise-spanning ''[[D-Style]]'' line. Like [[Megatron (G1)/merchandise#D-Style|Megatron]] he comes with three different faces and in line with the rest of the line, comes with a mini alt mode figure, in this case an F15 jet. He also contains a replaceable open hand. His chest contains flip-up panels in his chest that reveal missile racks based on the weapons seen in the Generation 1 episode "Fire on the Mountain". The null rays can be removed and wielded as guns, and he can also hold Megatron's gun.

:In order to get the figure looking like the promotional photos, required paint applications include coloring the screaming mouth, chest fans and panel lines, missile rack surrounds, null ray panel lines, and knee vents all in black. Eyes and cockpit come in translucent colored plastic and can also be painted to improve their look. Finally, the mini F15 jet comes as a single black piece and is missing all coloring.

:He comes in a two pack along with [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#D-Style|Thundercracker]].

:This mold was also used to make ''D-Style'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#D-Style|Starscream]].

He stands 6" tall and is articulated, featuring a shiny metallic color scheme, removable armor and replacement hands. He also features LED light up eyes, Decepticon insignias on his wings, null rays and thrusters in his feet, for use when he's "hovering", mounted on the included display stand.

:This figure was also redecoed with a different new face into Mecha Nations [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Mecha Nations|Thundercracker]], with whom he was a 2015 Toy Soul exhibition exclusive.

*'''Skywarp''' (06-2017)
:Part of the second wave of Transformers Bitfig capsule toys, Skywarp's is a redco of the previously released Starscream toy whose design is inspired by his appearance in the G1 cartoon. Skywarp is articulated at the neck and shoulders. Bitfig toys were packaged in capsules color coded to the toy they contained.

==Notes==
[[File:Skywarpatron.jpg|right|upright=0.85|thumb]]
*In a possible fit of madness, a triple changer was proposed that would switch between Skywarp (possibly mistaken for Starscream), [[Megatron (G1)/toys|Megatron]], and Skywarp's jet mode.
*In modern times, Skywarp is often the last of the three primary Decepticon Seekers to see the use of a toyline's respective Seeker mold. This often leads to his figures becoming prominent shelfwarmers at the tail end of a line's run.

*Within the narrative of the ''Generation 2'' comic, it's unsure what exactly a "Firestormer" is. Only [[Jhiaxus (G2)|Jhiaxus]] and [[Rook (G2)|Rook]] use the term, and it might just be their catch-all terminology for folks who show up in [[Hub (G2)|their conquered land]], shoot up all [[Cybertronian (faction)|their guys]] and mess up all [[Eco-structuring|their hard work]]. Jhiaxus also once mentioned "'''Blitzgangs'''" in the same breath as the Firestormers, but they're never mentioned again.
*Since Rook only notes four Firestormers, it's uncertain whether the Dinobots count amongst the Firestormers' ranks: maybe they don't, or maybe he's just telling the story sequentially and hasn't gotten around to mentioning the subsequent five additional Firestormers.
*All of the guys on the team are known sociopaths or seasoned warriors, except Hound. What the heck is he doing there? (Answer: Being the obligatory member to tell everyone that they're being too brutal.)
*General Optimus Prime's profile card says that he leads the '''Firestorm''er'' Squadron''', but his profile in the Diamond Edition of "[[Cybertron's Most Wanted]]" calls it the '''Autobot Firestorm Squadron'''.
*The characters involved in Project: Firestormer use ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' designs. [[Ratchet (G1)/toys#BotCon2016|Ratchet]] and [[Bluestreak (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Bluestreak]] were produced by [[Fun Publications]] as toys while [[Inferno (G1)/toys#Generations|Inferno]] was eventually released in the ''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'' line.

War for Cybertron: Siege

{{nav-WarForCybertronSiege}}

[[File:WFC-Siege-Poster-ArkLaunchAutobots.jpg|thumb|250px|The stege begins.]]

'''''War For Cybertron: Siege''''' is a [[subline imprint]] of the ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' toyline, and the first portion of the ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy]]''.

First revealed in mid-[[2018]] at [[San Diego Comic-Con]], ''War for Cybertron: Siege'', in keeping with the installments of the ''[[Prime Wars Trilogy]]'', features a line-wide [[gimmick]]: weaponry. Most Deluxe, Voyager, and Leader Class figures each come with at least one or two weapons that can transform, combine, and/or be placed into any [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]] posts, [[5 mm post]]s littered all over their bodies, essentially an updated version of the [[Powerlinx]] system. Another line-wide feature is battle-damaged paintjobs on Deluxe-and-up figures to fit with the gritty "war" aspect. Returning to this toyline are [[Micromaster]]s, which are bundled in two packs, replacing the Legends Class of the last half-decade, and are now able to combine into large weapons as well as transform into their vehicle form. This size class is also used for Soundwave's minions, who can turn into cassettes or be used as a shield with fold-out pegs. Replacing the [[Prime Master]]s from [[Power of the Primes (toyline)|the last toyline]] are "[[Battle Master]]s", small [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmaster]]-type figures that can combine with other weapons and figures. They include additional "Fire Blast" effect pieces that can be placed onto other weapons included with other size classes, as well as hardpoints on the figures themselves to simulate being 'shot' or on the back of vehicles to simulate "rocket boosters" or "speed", depending on the effect part. Each effect part attaches via a 3 mm hole, or in most cases, 5 mm posts too. Some Deluxe Class figures are classified as "Deluxe Weaponizers," which can be disassembled into multiple weapons to be used in the C.O.M.B.A.T. System. Leader Class figures are very similar to ''Power of the Primes'', in which smaller figures come with additional armor that can be be added to vehicle mode or robot mode to increase their size to become the height of a Leader Class figure.

The boxes of the figures have black-light revealed [[Alphabet#Generation 1 alphabets|cybertronian script]] on them which can be put into the "[[Found a hidden code?]]" game on the Transformers website.

==''Siege'' (TakaraTomy)==
Like ''[[Transformers: The Last Knight (toyline)| The Last Knight]]'', ''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'', and ''[[Studio Series]]'', [[TakaraTomy]]'s ''Transformers Siege'' (トランスフォーマーシージ) toyline sees their new "brand unification" strategy in full effect. As such, Takara ''Siege'' toys are completely identical to their [[Hasbro]] counterparts, just released in different waves and given new "ID" numbers.

War for Cybertron: Siege

[[File:WFC-Siege-Poster-ArkLaunchAutobots.jpg|thumb|250px|The stege begins.]]

'''''War For Cybertron: Siege''''' is a [[subline imprint]] of the ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' toyline, and the first portion of the ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy]]''.

First revealed in mid-[[2018]] at [[San Diego Comic-Con]], ''War for Cybertron: Siege'', in keeping with the installments of the ''[[Prime Wars Trilogy]]'', features a line-wide [[gimmick]]: weaponry. Most Deluxe, Voyager, and Leader Class figures each come with at least one or two weapons that can transform, combine, and/or be placed into any [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]] posts, [[5 mm post]]s littered all over their bodies, essentially an updated version of the [[Powerlinx]] system. Another line-wide feature is battle-damaged paintjobs on Deluxe-and-up figures to fit with the gritty "war" aspect. Returning to this toyline are [[Micromaster]]s, which are bundled in two packs, replacing the Legends Class of the last half-decade, and are now able to combine into large weapons as well as transform into their vehicle form. This size class is also used for Soundwave's minions, who can turn into cassettes or be used as a shield with fold-out pegs. Replacing the [[Prime Master]]s from [[Power of the Primes (toyline)|the last toyline]] are "[[Battle Master]]s", small [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmaster]]-type figures that can combine with other weapons and figures. They include additional "Fire Blast" effect pieces that can be placed onto other weapons included with other size classes, as well as hardpoints on the figures themselves to simulate being 'shot' or on the back of vehicles to simulate "rocket boosters" or "speed", depending on the effect part. Each effect part attaches via a 3 mm hole, or in most cases, 5 mm posts too. Some Deluxe Class figures are classified as "Deluxe Weaponizers," which can be disassembled into multiple weapons to be used in the C.O.M.B.A.T. System. Leader Class figures are very similar to ''Power of the Primes'', in which smaller figures come with additional armor that can be be added to vehicle mode or robot mode to increase their size to become the height of a Leader Class figure.

The boxes of the figures have black-light revealed [[Alphabet#Generation 1 alphabets|cybertronian script]] on them which can be put into the "[[Found a hidden code?]]" game on the Transformers website.

Following in the footsteps of [[Arcee (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Arcee]], [[Grotusque#Generations|Grotusque]], and the three ''[[Prime Wars Trilogy]]'' "Special Edition" figures in 2018, Hasbro debuted a special edition ''[[Transformers: Generations#Selects|Selects]]'' deco of Voyager Class Megatron at [[Toy Fair 2019]] to celebrate the ''War for Cybertron Trilogy''. Announced at [[Toy Fair 2019]], Combat Megatron was exclusively available in the United States via online retailers such as [[BigBadToyStore]], [[Entertainment Earth]], TFSource, and Hasbro's new replacement for [[Hasbro Toy Shop]], [[Hasbro Pulse]].

Like ''[[Transformers: The Last Knight (toyline)| The Last Knight]]'', ''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'', and ''[[Studio Series]]'', [[TakaraTomy]]'s ''Transformers Siege'' (トランスフォーマーシージ) toyline sees their new "brand unification" strategy in full effect. As such, Takara ''Siege'' toys are completely identical to their [[Hasbro]] counterparts, just released in different waves and given new "ID" numbers.

Skywarp (G1)/toys

Garfieldwxg55: /* War for Cybertron: Siege */

{{suite}}
[[File:G1Skywarp package art.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.67]]
[[Skywarp (G1)|Skywarp]] has always looked and will always look a lot like [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]]. There are many [[Starscream (G1)/toys|toys of Starscream]] and where there is a Starscream toy, a Skywarp toy soon follows.

==Toys==
===The Transformers===
[[File:G1toy skywarp.jpg|right|thumb|upright=2.2]][[File:G1catalog84-DecepticonPlanes-Redeco.jpg|right|thumb]]
*'''Skywarp''' (Decepticon Jet, 1984/1985)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''23'''
**''Accessories:'' Left & right fists, 2 missile launchers, 2 missiles, 2 "Machine Guns", left & right wings, left & right rudders, left & right tail fins, landing gear

: Skywarp began life as a ''[[Diaclone]]'' "Jet Robo", but unlike team-mates [[Starscream (G1)/toys|Starscream]] and [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys|Thundercracker]], with whom he shares his mold, his distinctive black-and-purple deco did ''not'' originate in that line. Skywarp transforms into an {{w|F-15 Eagle}} fighter jet, by a process which essentially involves removing and reattaching most of his plane parts. Though it is possible to do so without removing all of them, this rather piecemeal design and the fact that neither mode uses all his parts means it can be quite difficult to find an intact original Skywarp on the secondary market.

:Skywarp is armed with a pair of missile launchers that mount on his arms in robot mode, and under his wings in jet mode, with a pair of specialized projectiles for each. In jet mode, two short rockets are fitted into the launchers to make them resemble the drop tanks a real F-15 carries, while in robot mode, they are replaced with the long barrels of Skywarp's machine guns. The original ''Diaclone'' version of the mold featured spring-loaded firing mechanisms in these launchers; while this feature was removed for the [[Hasbro]] release of the toy, it was left intact for the [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] version, and all subsequent reissues.

:While the earliest releases of Skywarp were basically identical to the ''Diaclone'' mold, some small modifications were soon made to the figure which became the standard for all subsequent reissues of the mold. These included the hollowing out of the inner edges of his wings and the tips of his tail-wings, the lengthening of the pegs on his wings, and the addition of extra clips on the inner sides of his fist-gauntlets, allowing them to grip his arms better but creating a visible slit on them. Like all his 1984 brethren, Skywarp gained a factory-applied [[rubsign]] in 1985, which was added to the left side of his fuselage.

:For some reason, the stats on Skywarp's, Starscream's and Thundercracker's [[Tech Spec]]s were switched around. Skywarp's box was given Starscream's numbers, giving him a high intelligence and rank that stood in contrast to the bio printed next to them.

:Early Hasbro stock photos of Skywarp (right) show him with a plastic purple nosecone. This was changed to a soft, black rubber nosecone when the toy was actually released. However, a [http://tfarchive.com/toys/articles/toypics/mex_skywarp.jpg Mexican variant] retained the purple plastic nosecone. The same stock photos also show him with purple launchers with black triggers and muzzle rings, black feet, black shins, black outer arm panels, purple horizontal stabilizers, and both sets of purple missiles. These stock photos were also later used to promote Takara's 2001 reissue (see below).

:The Italian release of Skywarp (as "Corvo") by [[GiG]] put him in a generic "Distructor Planes" box, featuring names and tech specs for all three planes in the assortment.

:This mold was [[redeco]]ed into [[Sunstorm (G1)|Sunstorm]] and retooled to make [[Dirge (G1)/toys|Dirge]], [[Ramjet (G1)/toys|Ramjet]], and [[Thrust (G1)/toys|Thrust]].

===Machine Wars===
[[File:MWSkywarp.jpg|right|upright=1.67|thumb|After his near-fatal encounter with the Invert Colors function.]]
*'''Skywarp''' (Basic, 1997)
**''Accessories:'' 2 rifle halves
: Sharing a mold once again with [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Machine Wars|Thundercracker]], Skywarp transforms into a white {{w|Rafale|Dassault Rafale}} fighter jet with spring-loaded one-step transformation from jet to robot. The two halves of his rifle store in his lower legs. Like all ''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' toys, Skywarp was an [[exclusive]] to Kay-Bee stores and related stores like Toy Liquidators.

: The toy was [[Repurposing|repurposed]] as the [[Skywarp drone]]s. This mold is also used by ''[[Beast Wars II (toyline)|Beast Wars II]]'' [[Dirge (BWII)#Toys|Dirge]], [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|''Robots in Disguise'' (2001)]] [[Skyfire (RID)|Skyfire]], ''[[Robotmasters (franchise)|Robotmasters]]'' [[Wingstun#Toys|Wingstun]] and ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' [[Waspinator (BW)/toys#Timelines 2|Waspinator]].

===Collector's Edition===
{{anchor|collectorsedition}}[[File:G1toy reissue skywarp.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.67]]
*'''Skywarp''' (reissue, 2001)
**''ID number:'' '''Set C'''
**''Accessories:'' Left & right fists, 2 missile launchers, 2 missiles, 2 "Machine Guns", left & right wings, left & right rudders, left & right tail fins, landing gear
:The original Skywarp toy was reissued for the first time in 2001 as part of Takara's small "[[Collector's Edition]]" series, which made several Generation 1 toys available as convention [[exclusive]]s. Sold in new open-faced packaging with no notable changes from the original figure, Skywarp was an exclusive at the Japanese science fiction convention "Super Festival 21", available only in a set with Thundercracker and limited to 1000 pieces. The pair are often mistakenly identified as [[e-HOBBY]] exclusives.

===Commemorative Series===

*'''Skywarp''' (reissue, 2003)
**''Accessories:'' Left & right fists, 2 missile launchers, 2 missiles, 2 "Machine Guns", left & right wings, left & right rudders, left & right tail fins, landing gear

:The original Skywarp toy was made available again as part of Hasbro's line of [[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]] reissues. Released in the fourth wave of the series, it featured functional missile launchers for the first time on a Hasbro version of the toy, but because the launchers now worked, both sets of missiles had to be lengthened [[for safety reasons]]. His machine guns didn't turn out ''too'' bad; the missiles didn't fare so well. Rather than correct the erroneous Tech Spec numbers from Skywarp's original release, this reissue retained them and instead features a slightly re-written bio to remove the contradictions.

===Universe (2003)===
[[File:TFU03-toy Skywarp.jpg|right|upright=1.67|thumb|Like [[Mirage (BM)|Mirage]], except he can fly.]]
*'''Skywarp''' (Deluxe, 2003)
**''Accessories:'' 2 missiles

:''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' Skywarp is a redeco of ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Machines]]'' [[Jetstorm (BM)|Jetstorm]] in his Generation 1 colors. He transforms into a Cybertronic fighter jet, armed with two spring-loaded projectile launchers that can fire orange "energon" bolts. These launchers end up in his arms in robot mode. He has a third robot mode that collapses the legs around the cockpit (oh hush), with flip-out panels revealing an extra pair of thrusters. His [[spark]] crystal, revealed by flipping the purple hatch on his back, has a Decepticon [[insignia]] [[tampograph]]ed on top of it.

:Although most previous versions of the mold have the wingtips swept forward in vehicle mode, Skywarp was packaged and depicted in his instructions with the wingtips swept back. His fictional appearances, however, use the conventional arrangement shown here.

:Skywarp was also used to make ''Beast Machines'' [[Aero Drone|Sonic Attack Jet]], ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 franchise)|Robots in Disguise]]'' [[Storm Jet (RID)|Storm Jet]], and ''Robots in Disguise'' [[Jhiaxus (RID)|Jhiaxus]].

===Smallest Transforming Transformers===
[[File:Smallest transforming skywarp.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.67]]
*'''Skywarp''' (2003)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''GTF X-1'''
**''Accessories:'' Left & right fists, 2 missile launchers, left & right wings, left & right tailfins, landing gear

: Part of the first wave of ''[[Smallest Transforming Transformers]]'' product, Skywarp is, of course, a redeco of this line's Starscream. Like all toys in the series, he is a tiny, simplified version of the original Generation 1 toy, transforming into an F-15 fighter jet, with most of the accessories from the original toy faithfully translated save for his machine guns. As with all previous waves of ''Smallest Transforming Transformers'', these figures were sold [[blindpacking|blindpacked]], with Skywarp as one of the wave's two rare [[chase figure]]s

: This mold was redecoed into ''Smallest Transforming'' Thundercracker, and retooled to make Thrust.

===Robotmasters===
[[File:RMSkywarp toy.jpg|right|upright=1.67|thumb|Now with the proper articulation for down-stair-pushing.]]
*'''Skywarp & Thundercracker''' (Multi-pack, 2005)
**''Accessories:'' 2 "Machine Guns"

: ''[[Robotmasters (franchise)|Robotmasters]]'' Skywarp is a redeco of [[Starscream (G1)/toys|Starscream]] from the same series, a smaller yet more advanced version of the original toy, adding more articulation and reducing the amount of [[Partformer|part-forming]] required. He was available only in a two-pack with [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys|Thundercracker]], which also came with a Decepticon sigil pin and chromed missile pods. This set was the very last product released in the ''Robotmasters'' line and wasn't even strictly sold in a box from that series; instead, it used an [[e-HOBBY]] Generation 1 reissue box, with a small ''Robotmasters'' sticker in the corner tab noting its origin from the front.

===Classics (2006)===
{{anchor|Classics}}
[[File:Class06-toy Skywarp.jpg|right|upright=1.67|thumb|Ultra Magnus isn't pictured because he was just pushed-well, you know.]]
*'''Ultra Magnus vs Skywarp: Battle For Autobot City''' (Multi-pack, 2006)
**''Accessories:'' Left & right missile launchers, 2 missiles

: ''[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]'' Skywarp is a Target-[[exclusive]] redeco and slight retool of ''Classics'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Classics (2006)|Starscream]], transforming into an [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes|F-15 Eagle fighter jet]], though with a canopy like that of an [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes|F-14 Tomcat]]. Unlike previous (and future) figures, the shade of purple used for this figure has a more reddish tint to it. He comes with a pair of spring-loaded missile launchers that can be mounted on his biceps or used as hand-held weapons in robot mode and can attach under his wings in vehicle mode. As with most ''Classics'' toys, he also features a heat-sensitive [[rubsign]].

: Skywarp was slightly [[retool]]ed from the earlier Starscream figures. The retool is present in the jet intake area. The slope of his shoulders was decreased from Starscream's, and a fifth rectangle was added to the vertical area. This retooled version was used for all subsequent releases of the mold, and was also used as a [[Variant#Running change|running change]] on Starscream.

: He was only available as part of a two-pack with [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#Classics|Ultra Magnus]]. The set's price was $19.99, despite including both a Voyager Class and Deluxe Class mold in it, which would be approximately $30 worth of toys if they had been sold separately. He was also available in Woolworth stores throughout the United Kingdom.

: [[Stock photography]] of ''Classics'' Skywarp showed [[:File:Classics Skywarp toy.jpg|a more detailed color scheme]] than the actual released figure. Much like ''Classics'' Ultra Magnus, the changes were most likely due to an overabundance of [[paint operation]]s. This more detailed version was shown at [[BotCon 2006]], and at least one sample found its way to a collector's hands. The sample also used the original Starscream mold, and not the retooled version mentioned above.

===Masterpiece===
{{MPSeekerMold}}

[[File:MP-6 Skywarp.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|Takara finally remembered what colors the Seekers are supposed to be.]]
*'''Skywarp''' (2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MP-6'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 "Machine Guns", 2 AIM missile racks, Doctor Arkeville pilot, Megatron Gun clasp, display stand

: ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' Skywarp was released in Japan in September of 2007. He is a redeco of the ''Masterpiece'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Starscream]] mold in black, gray, silver, and purple, though the purple and silver are more minimal than usual. Skywarp is able to switch between a minimally retooled stoic face and a new snarly face, retooled from Starscream's previous smirk. The tiny [[Doctor Arkeville]] pilot figurine (this time molded black) is also included, as well as a clasp for jet mode Skywarp to hold the gun mode Megatron that came with [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys|Masterpiece Convoy/20th Anniversary Optimus Prime]].

[[File:MPSkywarp stickers.jpg|upright=1.1|left|thumb|Sadly, no stair-pusher sticker.]]
: The sticker sheet includes Skywarp-esque stripes, as well as several whimsical squadron markings.

:The second pressing of ''Masterpiece'' Skywarp (released in October 2008) features an assembly error: his left and right pectorals are flipped. This misassembly does not affect transformation at all, and is really only noticeable when compared to prior ''Masterpiece'' Seekers. The September 2007 pressing of ''Masterpiece'' Skywarp is assembled correctly. ''Masterpiece'' Thundercracker is misassembled as well.

:It is a common misconception that the stoic face on Takara's ''Masterpiece'' Starscream, Skywarp, and Thundercracker are the same, when all of them are in fact different sculpts.

:This mold was later used for the ''Masterpiece'' version of [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Thundercracker]]. It was also redecoed and retooled to create the eleventh ''Masterpiece'' figure, [[Starscream (G1)/toys#MP11|Starscream]].

::*''[http://www.tfu.info/2009/Decepticon/MPSkywarp/skywarp.htm More information on Masterpiece Skywarp at TFU.info]''

{{-}}{{anchor|Masterpiece11SW}}
[[File:MP-11SW Skywarp.jpg|upright=1.67|thumb|Just to fool you into thinking that there isn't a third Masterpiece Seeker mold being developed.]]
*'''Skywarp''' ([[2015]]-[[January 5|01-05]])
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MP-11SW'''
***''Accessories:'' [[Megatron (G1)/toys#MP11SW|Megatron Gun]], Doctor Arkeville pilot

:A redeco of the newer ''Masterpiece'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#MP11|MP-11 Starscream]] mold, Skywarp features some extensive retooling to wind the ''Masterpiece'' Seeker design back into the more Generation 1-accurate look, with most of the robot mode being newly tooled parts, including chunkier legs that now incorporate his tail-fins, [[retool]]ed shoulders and wingtips that no longer curve into one another, a new head (with collapsible head fins), new heel spurs that flip out for added support in robot mode, and re-engineered Machine Guns attached to extending armatures that mean they no longer have to be [[Partformer|removed]] for transformation.

:The figure features flip-up missile racks built into his pectorals. He comes with the original version of the Megatron gun that first came with ''Masterpiece'' [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#20th Anniversary/Masterpiece|Optimus Prime]]. He also comes with a Doctor Arkeville pilot figure identical to the previous MP-6 release.

:Skywarp's deco is heavily based on his cartoon appearance and features the rarely reproduced in toy form entirely purple shoulders and arm cannons. Despite the focus on cartoon accuracy in his deco, he carries over the striping on his forearms, shoulders, and pectorals similar to his original MP-6 Masterpiece release.

:Skywarp was only released in China via Hasbro Asia under the TakaraTomy label; marking the second time an original TakaraTomy Masterpiece toy wasn't released for the Japanese market ([[Megatron (G1)/toys#MasterpieceGoldMegs|Masterpiece Megatron Gold Version]] was the first).

:On [[November 30]], [[2016]] MP-11SW Skywarp was released in Japan for the first time as a [[TakaraTomy Mall]] exclusive. There are notable differences between this release and the original almost two years prior. The shade of purple used on the later release is more warm and less cool in tone. His biceps and knee flaps are now molded in black plastic rather than in purple plastic painted a glossy black. The inner portion of his upper chest is no longer painted silver mold molded in silver plastic. Many of the paint operations are also slightly different in color from the earlier Hasbro Asia release. Hasbro Asia also re-released the figure to coincide with the Japanese release.

:When purchased from a seller supplied by Hasbro Asia, Skywarp comes with a collector coin, mounted on a card resembling his wings, complete with his signature wing stripes. The coin was reissued in 2016, without change, alongside the figure.

*'''War Within Skywarp''' ([[San Diego Comic-Con]] 2008 exclusive)

: [[Titanium Series]] ''[[War Within (toyline)|War Within]]'' Skywarp is a redeco of [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Titanium Series|Thundercracker]], transforming into a Cybertronian "tetrajet" as reimagined by [[Don Figueroa]]. As with all 6-inch Titanium Cybertron Heroes, he is constructed mostly of fully painted die-cast metal. He was available only at [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] after the Titanium line had already been cancelled, and also Hasbro Toy Shop's booth at {{w|San Diego Comic-Con}} 2008.

: This mold was also used to make ''War Within'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Titanium Series|Starscream]], [[Sunstorm (G1)#Titanium Series|Sunstorm]], and [[Thrust (G1)#Titanium Series|Thrust]].

*'''Skywarp''' (Deluxe, 2008)
**''Accessories:'' 2 missile launchers (left and right), 2 missiles

: ''[[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (toyline)|Henkei! Henkei!]]'' Skywarp is a [[Toy Hobby Market]] exclusive redeco of ''Henkei! Henkei!'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys|Starscream]]. Skywarp and his fellow [[Seeker (body-type)|Seeker]] [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys|Thundercracker]] were opened for pre-order on [[May 22]]nd through [[June 20]], and mailed out in September 2008.

:Soon after release, there were numerous complaints from both Japanese and Western collectors about the poor quality control for both Thundercracker and Skywarp. Skywarp's most common fault was missing paint for one of his shoulders. Some reported both toys suffering misassembly issues such as having two left or two right thighs.

:Several minor changes were made to this mold for this release. The holes for his missile launchers in his arms were widened, as were the launcher's insertion pegs. The wing's missile launcher insertion points were lengthened and are now curved at the end. The last rectangle on his air intakes was further modified from the [[Transformers: Classics|Classics]] version, this time the bottom most rectangle goes completely across the air intake's surface rather than just the center. ''Henkei! Henkei!'' Thundercracker and ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 franchise)|Universe]]'' Starscream also saw most of these changes.

*'''Masterpiece Skywarp''' (2009)
**''Accessories:'' 2 "Machine Guns", 2 missile racks, Doctor Arkeville pilot figurine, gun clip, two-piece display stand
: A [[Walmart]] exclusive redeco of the original ''Masterpiece'' Starscream mold. Just like Starscream, Skywarp is able to switch between two different faces. This release uses the Starscream's stoic and smirking alternate faces rather than the Takara ''Masterpiece'' Skywarp's newly-tooled stoic and snarling faces. Hasbro designer [[Joe Kyde]] felt the alternate snarling face did not fit Skywarp's prankster personality, so he went with the Starscream smirk face instead when designing the deco for Hasbro's release. As a result of gang molding, Skywarp also uses Starscream's stoic face, the decision being the difference between Skywarp and Starscream's stoic face was negligible enough not to make a significant difference. The toy also features a more G1 toy styled deco rather than cartoon-based, particularly in the yellow eye color and wing stripes. His purple more closely matches that of the original toy than the purple used on the Takara version, and features a lighter flat black, like the original toy, instead of Takara's darker glossy black. The Hasbro version replaces some of the dark gray of the Takara version with a dark silver, removes the arm and chest striping, but adds additional red detailing, while removing some as well. Much like Hasbro's Starscream, he does not feature any of the warning or slogan tampographs, but features tampographed striping, Decepticon symbols, and some additional paint details not present on the Takara version. The nosecone features black paint over purple plastic, allowing for easy customization of "Mexican Masterpiece Skywarp".
: The tiny Doctor Arkeville pilot figurine (molded in black with no paint applications) is also included, as well as a clasp for jet mode Skywarp to hold the gun mode Megatron that came with ''Masterpiece'' Convoy/20th Anniversary Optimus Prime and a stand (featuring Skywarp's name) with a support beam for jet or robot mode.
: Masterpiece Skywarp was also available as an Argos exclusive in the [[United Kingdom]].

:Skywarp's original toy was reissued again as part of TakaraTomy's ''[[Transformers Encore|Encore]]'' series, this time in a two-pack with his erstwhile partner, Thundercracker. This release of the figure replaced his Decepticon symbol stickers with [[tampograph]]s, and changed his purple stickers to a much bluer shade. Curiously, although Thundercracker's wing stripes were replaced with tampographs, Skywarp's remained factory-applied stickers.

**''Japanese ID number:'' '''A-04'''

:Skywarp is a [[retool]] of the simultaneously released ''[[Transformers: Alternity|Alternity]]'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Alternity|Starscream]] with a new head, transforming into a licensed 1:32 scale {{w|Mitsuoka Orochi}}. Like the other toys in the line, he features [[die-cast]] metal parts and rubber tires, as well as an opening hood, trunk and doors. This is also currently the only ''Alternity'' mold to feature [[Kibble#"Faux-parts"|a fake kibble chest]].

:In car mode, small wings are ''supposed to'' be able to flip out from under Skywarp's rear wheels, giving him the appearance of a flying car. Unfortunately, this [[gimmick]] suffers from a rather nasty [[design flaw]]: there is simply not enough clearance under the car for the wheels to be able to pass and hinge through, and attempting to do so will result in the plastic reinforcement struts underneath ''deforming the rims and chipping the tires''. His door panels also tend to detach from their [[ball joint]]s ''very easily''.

:This mold, with Skywarp's head, was also used to make [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Alternity|Thundercracker]] and [[Banzai-Tron (G1)#Alternity|Banzai-Tron]].

He transforms into an F-15 with many fuselage details borrowed from the Masterpiece version. This is also the first Seeker mold in many years to attempt an entirely new transformation, with the arms now forming the rear of the jet and the legs folding under the wings. Skywarp was available only in Japan, and like many Japanese "EZ Collection" toys, was [[blindpacking|blindpacked]].

: This version of Skywarp is heavily based on his cartoon appearance. He features a glossy black, a medium warm purple, shiny metallic purple paint on most of his purple plastic, and an amber cockpit. Paint operations found on the Henkei! Henkei! release were shuffled around for the sake of cartoon accuracy, up to and including purple shoulders.
: Original photos of Skywarp showed him with show-accurate all purple arm cannons, but due to gang molding (and lack of additional paint operations) only the upper most portion of his arm cannons ended up purple.

{{note|''Fall of Cybertron'' [[Skywarp (WFC)#Generations|Skywarp]] was [[repurposing|repurposed]] as Generation 1 Skywarp in the ''[[Transformers Cloud|Cloud]]'' story line.}}
: Part of the [[TakaraTomy]] ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' line, ''[[Transformers: Fall of Cybertron|Fall of Cybertron]]'' Skywarp is a redeco of ''Fall of Cybertron'' [[Starscream (WFC)#Generations|Starscream]], and transforms into a Cybertronian jet fighter. His color layout is based on that seen in ''War for Cybertron'' promotional material, with purple wings, although much of the black is replaced with a dark metallic gray.

:Skywarp comes with two spinning, triple-barreled "assault cannons" which can combine to form a larger hand-held weapon that is geared to spin its two triple-barrels together, and resembles the [[Neutron assault rifle]] from ''Fall of Cybertron''. Each of the weapon halves features two [[5mm post]]s, as well as a peg-hole on their hollow sides, while the combined form features another peg-hole at the top, but makes the peg-holes on the hollow sides inaccessible. Skywarp features numerous 5mm peg-holes, such as his hands, forearms, lower legs, and wing undersides. Additionally, his tail-fin is attached via a 5mm post on its underside, and can be detached to reveal three additional peg-holes, with two of these peg-holes being just the right distance to accommodate the two pegs found on the underside of the combined assault cannons/rifle, with the tail-fin pegging on the rifle's top peg-hole. This allows the weapon to mount on top of the vehicle mode, and store on his back in robot mode.

He comes with two spinning, triple-barreled cannons which can combine to form a larger hand-held weapon that is geared to spin its two triple-barrels together, and resembles the [[Neutron assault rifle]] from ''Fall of Cybertron''. Each of the weapon halves features two [[5mm post]]s, as well as a peg-hole on their hollow sides, while the combined form features another peg-hole at the top, but makes the peg-holes on the hollow sides inaccessible.

:Skywarp's tail-fin is attached via a 5mm post on its underside, and can be detached to reveal three additional peg-holes, with two of these peg-holes being just the right distance to accommodate the combined assault cannons/rifle, with the tail-fin pegging on the rifle's top peg-hole. This allows the weapon to mount on top of the vehicle mode, and store on his back in robot mode.

:Skywarp is minimally mis-transformed in-package: his jet mode nosecone is extended, rather than folded in as it should be in robot mode. He comes packaged with a copy of [[IDW Publishing|IDW]]'s [[Winners & Losers: Dark Cybertron Chapter 3|''Robots in Disguise'' #23]].

:Despite using a mold matching [[Skywarp (WFC)|Skywarp]]'s appearance in ''[[Transformers: War for Cybertron (franchise)|War for Cybertron]]'', this toy ''technically'' represents G1 Skywarp, thanks to his [[IDW Publishing|IDW]] pack-in fiction. Consequently, the toy is listed in the former's page as a [[repurposing]]. This toy was used as ''[[Transformers Cloud|Cloud]]'' Skywarp's initial appearance and was redecoed into TakaraTomy ''Fall of Cybertron'' Skywarp and ''Generations Thrilling 30'' [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Thrilling30|Thundercracker]].

Aside from that, the figure's deco is mostly identical to [[#Chronicle|the ''Chronicle EZ Collection'' figure]] listed above, although the purple [[paint operation]]s sport a more blue hue, the purple paint operations on his shins are omitted entirely, and the [[tampograph]]ed Decepticon insignias on the wings are purple with silver outlines rather than completely silver.<ref name="2014legion">[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-feedback/1040836-classic-legion-skywarp.html Review of 2014 Legion Class Skywarp] at TFW2005, including a comparison with ''EZ Collection'' Skywarp.</ref>

:Skywarp comes in packaging that is based on the packaging design for the concurrently released ''Combiner Wars''-era ''Generations'' figures, but replaces the name ''Generations'' with "Authentic Transformers". Since Skywarp and his [[wave]]-mates ship with three figures previously released under what we consider a generic [[Transformers (2014 toyline)|''Transformers'' (2014) toy line]], all of them now in the new packaging style, we consider Skywarp to be part of that line as well.

He is, surprisingly enough, ''not'' identical to either Starscream or Thundercracker: the stance of his legs and the position of his Decepticon symbols differ, but he is, of course, most prominently distinguished by his raised arms.

: The Skywarp figurine was later brought over to [[Hasbro]] markets as part of the [[Decoy]] promotion, largely identical to the Japanese release except for the fact that the number on his back was replaced with a simple "checklist" number (33, in Skywarp's case). Like all Decepticon Decoys, he was a randomly-chosen pack-in available with the carded [[Throttlebot]]s, [[Aerialbot (G1)|Aerialbots]], [[Protectobot (G1)|Protectobots]] and [[Technobot (G1)|Technobots]], and was, very early on in the promotion, available in an alternate red coloration that was only packed in with the Throttlebots. Unsurprisingly, this red figurine is much rarer.

===Super Collection Figure===
[[File:SCF skywarp.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.2]]
*'''Skywarp''' (Lucky Draw figure, 2001)

: ''[[Super Collection Figure]]'' Skywarp is a non-transforming three-inch tall [[plastic|PVC]] figurine, [[redeco]]ed from ''SCF'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys|Starscream]]. Limited to 200 pieces, he was only available as the second place prize in a [[Lucky Draw figure|Lucky Draw]] contest held in conjunction with the first edition of ''[[Transformers Generations]]'' (with the "[[Starscream (G1)/toys#SecretStarscream|Secret Starscream]]" toy as the first place prize). Due to the bankruptcy of the ''Transformers: Generations'' publisher, [[Keibunsha]], it is unknown whether the Japanese version of Skywarp was ever actually sent out or not.

: This mold was also used to make ''Super Collection Figure'' [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys|Thundercracker]] and ''[[Heroes of Cybertron]]'' (see below) Starscream, Thundercracker, [[Sunstorm (G1)|Sunstorm]] and the [[Air Warrior]]s.

===Heroes of Cybertron===
[[File:HOC skywarp.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.2]]
*'''Skywarp''' (2002)
: When the ''Super Collection Figure'' line was brought to the US as ''[[Heroes of Cybertron]]'', Skywarp was widely released as part of the first wave. As was the standard for the line, Skywarp was made from translucent red plastic that was mostly painted over, giving him [[light-piping|light-piped]] eyes. In addition, he is distinguished from his ''Super Collection Figure'' counterpart by grey knee-vents and black foot-panels, versus the respetive purple and grey applications on the original (though several samples of the figure were missing the foot-panel paint, including the one shown at the TFU link below).

*'''Skywarp''' (2003)
: ''Heroes of Cybertron'' Skywarp was re-released in a six-pack of figures available exclusively at [[OTFCC 2003]]. He came packaged with the ''Heroes of Cybertron'' versions of Starscream and Thundercracker, and three exclusive [[Air Warrior]]s, all six mounted in their own individual bubbles on one large card.

*'''Skywarp''' (2004, unreleased)

[[File:OTFCCSkywarp.jpg|thumb|Doesn't so much teleport as not exist in the first place.]]

: A redeco of ''Mega Super Figure Collection'' G1 Starscream (minus the extra coronation accessories), Skywarp was to be among the first of the fan club exclusives offered by [[BotCon#BotCon history|OTFCC]] as well as the first in their ''Legends of Cybertron'' line. The figure was delayed and never saw a full release due to [[3H Productions|3H Enterprises]] losing the license to run the official Transformers fan club. At least a couple of sample versions were produced, of those most (but not all) had the open-palm hands and the hand wielding Megatron in gun mode painted blue rather than the correct purple.

He can stand normally or use a stand to take on a "hovering" pose. Skywarp was limited to 300 pieces, and sculpted by [[3L Creation Group]] from a design by [[George Tremarco]].

*'''Skywarp''' (Booster, <s>2007</s>)

: Skywarp was among the planned ''Transformers [[Attacktix]]'' game pieces that were showed at some conventions, but went unreleased as the line was canceled. He was to be a [[retool]] of sorts of the similarly unreleased ''[[Transformers: Energon (franchise)|Energon]]'' [[Starscream (Armada)|Starscream]], using the same weapon and base but a brand new jet mold. Skywarp would've been able to detach from his base and fly on a string, enabling him to get better shots at opposing pieces. Any other details about his role in the game are unknown.

:Skywarp was one of the chase figures in the second wave of 3-inch tall [[blindpacking|blindpacked]] vinyl figurines produced by [[The Loyal Subjects]]. Featuring eight ball-jointed points of articulation. Unlike the other [[1984]] style Seekers, a Skywarp is not a redeco of the Starscream and Thundercracker figurine from the first wave (who were later redecoed to create the [[Rainmaker]] trio and [[Sunstorm (G1)|Sunstorm]]), but an all new mold with different construction and parts than his predecessors. He is slightly larger than the other '84 Seekers and features more moving parts. He does share some parts with the simultaneously released [[Ramjet (G1)/toys|Ramjet]], [[Thrust (G1)/toys|Thrust]], and fellow chase figure [[Dirge (G1)/toys|Dirge]]. For every 96 figures from wave 2 of The Loyal Subjects, there is 1 Skywarp.

*'''Skywarp''' (09-2015)
**''ID number:'' 48
**''Accessories:'' Scowling face, smirking face, shouting face, open hand, closed hands, mini F15 jet

:A super deformed Skywarp model kit produced by [[Kotobukiya]] as part of their franchise-spanning ''[[D-Style]]'' line. Like [[Megatron (G1)/merchandise#D-Style|Megatron]] he comes with three different faces and in line with the rest of the line, comes with a mini alt mode figure, in this case an F15 jet. He also contains a replaceable open hand. His chest contains flip-up panels in his chest that reveal missile racks based on the weapons seen in the Generation 1 episode "Fire on the Mountain". The null rays can be removed and wielded as guns, and he can also hold Megatron's gun.

:In order to get the figure looking like the promotional photos, required paint applications include coloring the screaming mouth, chest fans and panel lines, missile rack surrounds, null ray panel lines, and knee vents all in black. Eyes and cockpit come in translucent colored plastic and can also be painted to improve their look. Finally, the mini F15 jet comes as a single black piece and is missing all coloring.

:He comes in a two pack along with [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#D-Style|Thundercracker]].

:This mold was also used to make ''D-Style'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#D-Style|Starscream]].

:Created by [[Kids Logic]], this [[super deformed]] G1 Skywarp is a redeco of Mecha Nations [[Starscream (G1)/merchandise#Mecha Nations|Starscream]] with a new face. He stands 6" tall and is articulated, featuring a shiny metallic color scheme, removable armor and replacement hands. He also features LED light up eyes, Decepticon insignias on his wings, null rays and thrusters in his feet, for use when he's "hovering", mounted on the included display stand.

:This figure was also redecoed with a different new face into Mecha Nations [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Mecha Nations|Thundercracker]], with whom he was a 2015 Toy Soul exhibition exclusive.

===Bitfig===
[[File:Bitfig-Skywarp.jpg|thumb|]]
*'''Skywarp''' (06-2017)
:Part of the second wave of Transformers Bitfig capsule toys, Skywarp's is a redco of the previously released Starscream toy whose design is inspired by his appearance in the G1 cartoon. Skywarp is articulated at the neck and shoulders. Bitfig toys were packaged in capsules color coded to the toy they contained.

==Notes==
[[File:Skywarpatron.jpg|right|upright=0.85|thumb]]
*In a possible fit of madness, a triple changer was proposed that would switch between Skywarp (possibly mistaken for Starscream), [[Megatron (G1)/toys|Megatron]], and Skywarp's jet mode.
*In modern times, Skywarp is often the last of the three primary Decepticon Seekers to see the use of a toyline's respective Seeker mold. This often leads to his figures becoming prominent shelfwarmers at the tail end of a line's run.

{{suite}}
[[File:G1Skywarp package art.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.67]]
[[Skywarp (G1)|Skywarp]] has always looked and will always look a lot like [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]]. There are many [[Starscream (G1)/toys|toys of Starscream]] and where there is a Starscream toy, a Skywarp toy soon follows.

==Toys==
===The Transformers===
[[File:G1toy skywarp.jpg|right|thumb|upright=2.2]][[File:G1catalog84-DecepticonPlanes-Redeco.jpg|right|thumb]]
*'''Skywarp''' (Decepticon Jet, 1984/1985)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''23'''
**''Accessories:'' Left & right fists, 2 missile launchers, 2 missiles, 2 "Machine Guns", left & right wings, left & right rudders, left & right tail fins, landing gear

: Skywarp began life as a ''[[Diaclone]]'' "Jet Robo", but unlike team-mates [[Starscream (G1)/toys|Starscream]] and [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys|Thundercracker]], with whom he shares his mold, his distinctive black-and-purple deco did ''not'' originate in that line. Skywarp transforms into an {{w|F-15 Eagle}} fighter jet, by a process which essentially involves removing and reattaching most of his plane parts. Though it is possible to do so without removing all of them, this rather piecemeal design and the fact that neither mode uses all his parts means it can be quite difficult to find an intact original Skywarp on the secondary market.

:Skywarp is armed with a pair of missile launchers that mount on his arms in robot mode, and under his wings in jet mode, with a pair of specialized projectiles for each. In jet mode, two short rockets are fitted into the launchers to make them resemble the drop tanks a real F-15 carries, while in robot mode, they are replaced with the long barrels of Skywarp's machine guns. The original ''Diaclone'' version of the mold featured spring-loaded firing mechanisms in these launchers; while this feature was removed for the [[Hasbro]] release of the toy, it was left intact for the [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] version, and all subsequent reissues.

:While the earliest releases of Skywarp were basically identical to the ''Diaclone'' mold, some small modifications were soon made to the figure which became the standard for all subsequent reissues of the mold. These included the hollowing out of the inner edges of his wings and the tips of his tail-wings, the lengthening of the pegs on his wings, and the addition of extra clips on the inner sides of his fist-gauntlets, allowing them to grip his arms better but creating a visible slit on them. Like all his 1984 brethren, Skywarp gained a factory-applied [[rubsign]] in 1985, which was added to the left side of his fuselage.

:For some reason, the stats on Skywarp's, Starscream's and Thundercracker's [[Tech Spec]]s were switched around. Skywarp's box was given Starscream's numbers, giving him a high intelligence and rank that stood in contrast to the bio printed next to them.

:Early Hasbro stock photos of Skywarp (right) show him with a plastic purple nosecone. This was changed to a soft, black rubber nosecone when the toy was actually released. However, a [http://tfarchive.com/toys/articles/toypics/mex_skywarp.jpg Mexican variant] retained the purple plastic nosecone. The same stock photos also show him with purple launchers with black triggers and muzzle rings, black feet, black shins, black outer arm panels, purple horizontal stabilizers, and both sets of purple missiles. These stock photos were also later used to promote Takara's 2001 reissue (see below).

:The Italian release of Skywarp (as "Corvo") by [[GiG]] put him in a generic "Distructor Planes" box, featuring names and tech specs for all three planes in the assortment.

:This mold was [[redeco]]ed into [[Sunstorm (G1)|Sunstorm]] and retooled to make [[Dirge (G1)/toys|Dirge]], [[Ramjet (G1)/toys|Ramjet]], and [[Thrust (G1)/toys|Thrust]].

The two halves of his rifle store in his lower legs. Like all ''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' toys, Skywarp was an [[exclusive]] to Kay-Bee stores and related stores like Toy Liquidators.

:The original Skywarp toy was reissued for the first time in 2001 as part of Takara's small "[[Collector's Edition]]" series, which made several Generation 1 toys available as convention [[exclusive]]s. Sold in new open-faced packaging with no notable changes from the original figure, Skywarp was an exclusive at the Japanese science fiction convention "Super Festival 21", available only in a set with Thundercracker and limited to 1000 pieces. The pair are often mistakenly identified as [[e-HOBBY]] exclusives.

**''Accessories:'' Left & right fists, 2 missile launchers, 2 missiles, 2 "Machine Guns", left & right wings, left & right rudders, left & right tail fins, landing gear

:The original Skywarp toy was made available again as part of Hasbro's line of [[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]] reissues. Released in the fourth wave of the series, it featured functional missile launchers for the first time on a Hasbro version of the toy, but because the launchers now worked, both sets of missiles had to be lengthened [[for safety reasons]]. His machine guns didn't turn out ''too'' bad; the missiles didn't fare so well. Rather than correct the erroneous Tech Spec numbers from Skywarp's original release, this reissue retained them and instead features a slightly re-written bio to remove the contradictions.

**''Accessories:'' 2 missiles

:''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' Skywarp is a redeco of ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Machines]]'' [[Jetstorm (BM)|Jetstorm]] in his Generation 1 colors. He transforms into a Cybertronic fighter jet, armed with two spring-loaded projectile launchers that can fire orange "energon" bolts. These launchers end up in his arms in robot mode. He has a third robot mode that collapses the legs around the cockpit (oh hush), with flip-out panels revealing an extra pair of thrusters. His [[spark]] crystal, revealed by flipping the purple hatch on his back, has a Decepticon [[insignia]] [[tampograph]]ed on top of it.

:Although most previous versions of the mold have the wingtips swept forward in vehicle mode, Skywarp was packaged and depicted in his instructions with the wingtips swept back. His fictional appearances, however, use the conventional arrangement shown here.

:Skywarp was also used to make ''Beast Machines'' [[Aero Drone|Sonic Attack Jet]], ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 franchise)|Robots in Disguise]]'' [[Storm Jet (RID)|Storm Jet]], and ''Robots in Disguise'' [[Jhiaxus (RID)|Jhiaxus]].

: Part of the first wave of ''[[Smallest Transforming Transformers]]'' product, Skywarp is, of course, a redeco of this line's Starscream. Like all toys in the series, he is a tiny, simplified version of the original Generation 1 toy, transforming into an F-15 fighter jet, with most of the accessories from the original toy faithfully translated save for his machine guns. As with all previous waves of ''Smallest Transforming Transformers'', these figures were sold [[blindpacking|blindpacked]], with Skywarp as one of the wave's two rare [[chase figure]]s

: This mold was redecoed into ''Smallest Transforming'' Thundercracker, and retooled to make Thrust.

*'''Skywarp & Thundercracker''' (Multi-pack, 2005)

: ''[[Robotmasters (franchise)|Robotmasters]]'' Skywarp is a redeco of [[Starscream (G1)/toys|Starscream]] from the same series, a smaller yet more advanced version of the original toy, adding more articulation and reducing the amount of [[Partformer|part-forming]] required. He was available only in a two-pack with [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys|Thundercracker]], which also came with a Decepticon sigil pin and chromed missile pods. This set was the very last product released in the ''Robotmasters'' line and wasn't even strictly sold in a box from that series; instead, it used an [[e-HOBBY]] Generation 1 reissue box, with a small ''Robotmasters'' sticker in the corner tab noting its origin from the front.

*'''Ultra Magnus vs Skywarp: Battle For Autobot City''' (Multi-pack, 2006)
**''Accessories:'' Left & right missile launchers, 2 missiles

: ''[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]'' Skywarp is a Target-[[exclusive]] redeco and slight retool of ''Classics'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Classics (2006)|Starscream]], transforming into an [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes|F-15 Eagle fighter jet]], though with a canopy like that of an [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes|F-14 Tomcat]]. Unlike previous (and future) figures, the shade of purple used for this figure has a more reddish tint to it. He comes with a pair of spring-loaded missile launchers that can be mounted on his biceps or used as hand-held weapons in robot mode and can attach under his wings in vehicle mode. As with most ''Classics'' toys, he also features a heat-sensitive [[rubsign]].

: Skywarp was slightly [[retool]]ed from the earlier Starscream figures. The retool is present in the jet intake area. The slope of his shoulders was decreased from Starscream's, and a fifth rectangle was added to the vertical area. This retooled version was used for all subsequent releases of the mold, and was also used as a [[Variant#Running change|running change]] on Starscream.

: He was only available as part of a two-pack with [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#Classics|Ultra Magnus]]. The set's price was $19.99, despite including both a Voyager Class and Deluxe Class mold in it, which would be approximately $30 worth of toys if they had been sold separately. He was also available in Woolworth stores throughout the United Kingdom.

: [[Stock photography]] of ''Classics'' Skywarp showed [[:File:Classics Skywarp toy.jpg|a more detailed color scheme]] than the actual released figure. Much like ''Classics'' Ultra Magnus, the changes were most likely due to an overabundance of [[paint operation]]s. This more detailed version was shown at [[BotCon 2006]], and at least one sample found its way to a collector's hands. The sample also used the original Starscream mold, and not the retooled version mentioned above.

*'''Skywarp''' (2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MP-6'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 "Machine Guns", 2 AIM missile racks, Doctor Arkeville pilot, Megatron Gun clasp, display stand

: ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' Skywarp was released in Japan in September of 2007. He is a redeco of the ''Masterpiece'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Starscream]] mold in black, gray, silver, and purple, though the purple and silver are more minimal than usual. Skywarp is able to switch between a minimally retooled stoic face and a new snarly face, retooled from Starscream's previous smirk. The tiny [[Doctor Arkeville]] pilot figurine (this time molded black) is also included, as well as a clasp for jet mode Skywarp to hold the gun mode Megatron that came with [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys|Masterpiece Convoy/20th Anniversary Optimus Prime]].

[[File:MPSkywarp stickers.jpg|upright=1.1|left|thumb|Sadly, no stair-pusher sticker.]]
: The sticker sheet includes Skywarp-esque stripes, as well as several whimsical squadron markings.

:The second pressing of ''Masterpiece'' Skywarp (released in October 2008) features an assembly error: his left and right pectorals are flipped. This misassembly does not affect transformation at all, and is really only noticeable when compared to prior ''Masterpiece'' Seekers. The September 2007 pressing of ''Masterpiece'' Skywarp is assembled correctly. ''Masterpiece'' Thundercracker is misassembled as well.

:It is a common misconception that the stoic face on Takara's ''Masterpiece'' Starscream, Skywarp, and Thundercracker are the same, when all of them are in fact different sculpts.

:This mold was later used for the ''Masterpiece'' version of [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Thundercracker]]. It was also redecoed and retooled to create the eleventh ''Masterpiece'' figure, [[Starscream (G1)/toys#MP11|Starscream]].

:A redeco of the newer ''Masterpiece'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#MP11|MP-11 Starscream]] mold, Skywarp features some extensive retooling to wind the ''Masterpiece'' Seeker design back into the more Generation 1-accurate look, with most of the robot mode being newly tooled parts, including chunkier legs that now incorporate his tail-fins, [[retool]]ed shoulders and wingtips that no longer curve into one another, a new head (with collapsible head fins), new heel spurs that flip out for added support in robot mode, and re-engineered Machine Guns attached to extending armatures that mean they no longer have to be [[Partformer|removed]] for transformation.

:The figure features flip-up missile racks built into his pectorals. He comes with the original version of the Megatron gun that first came with ''Masterpiece'' [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#20th Anniversary/Masterpiece|Optimus Prime]]. He also comes with a Doctor Arkeville pilot figure identical to the previous MP-6 release.

:Skywarp's deco is heavily based on his cartoon appearance and features the rarely reproduced in toy form entirely purple shoulders and arm cannons. Despite the focus on cartoon accuracy in his deco, he carries over the striping on his forearms, shoulders, and pectorals similar to his original MP-6 Masterpiece release.

:Skywarp was only released in China via Hasbro Asia under the TakaraTomy label; marking the second time an original TakaraTomy Masterpiece toy wasn't released for the Japanese market ([[Megatron (G1)/toys#MasterpieceGoldMegs|Masterpiece Megatron Gold Version]] was the first).

:On [[November 30]], [[2016]] MP-11SW Skywarp was released in Japan for the first time as a [[TakaraTomy Mall]] exclusive. There are notable differences between this release and the original almost two years prior. The shade of purple used on the later release is more warm and less cool in tone. His biceps and knee flaps are now molded in black plastic rather than in purple plastic painted a glossy black. The inner portion of his upper chest is no longer painted silver mold molded in silver plastic. Many of the paint operations are also slightly different in color from the earlier Hasbro Asia release. Hasbro Asia also re-released the figure to coincide with the Japanese release.

:When purchased from a seller supplied by Hasbro Asia, Skywarp comes with a collector coin, mounted on a card resembling his wings, complete with his signature wing stripes. The coin was reissued in 2016, without change, alongside the figure.

*'''War Within Skywarp''' ([[San Diego Comic-Con]] 2008 exclusive)

: [[Titanium Series]] ''[[War Within (toyline)|War Within]]'' Skywarp is a redeco of [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Titanium Series|Thundercracker]], transforming into a Cybertronian "tetrajet" as reimagined by [[Don Figueroa]]. As with all 6-inch Titanium Cybertron Heroes, he is constructed mostly of fully painted die-cast metal. He was available only at [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] after the Titanium line had already been cancelled, and also Hasbro Toy Shop's booth at {{w|San Diego Comic-Con}} 2008.

: This mold was also used to make ''War Within'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Titanium Series|Starscream]], [[Sunstorm (G1)#Titanium Series|Sunstorm]], and [[Thrust (G1)#Titanium Series|Thrust]].

*'''Skywarp''' (Deluxe, 2008)
**''Accessories:'' 2 missile launchers (left and right), 2 missiles

: ''[[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (toyline)|Henkei! Henkei!]]'' Skywarp is a [[Toy Hobby Market]] exclusive redeco of ''Henkei! Henkei!'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys|Starscream]]. Skywarp and his fellow [[Seeker (body-type)|Seeker]] [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys|Thundercracker]] were opened for pre-order on [[May 22]]nd through [[June 20]], and mailed out in September 2008.

:Soon after release, there were numerous complaints from both Japanese and Western collectors about the poor quality control for both Thundercracker and Skywarp. Skywarp's most common fault was missing paint for one of his shoulders. Some reported both toys suffering misassembly issues such as having two left or two right thighs.

:Several minor changes were made to this mold for this release. The holes for his missile launchers in his arms were widened, as were the launcher's insertion pegs. The wing's missile launcher insertion points were lengthened and are now curved at the end. The last rectangle on his air intakes was further modified from the [[Transformers: Classics|Classics]] version, this time the bottom most rectangle goes completely across the air intake's surface rather than just the center. ''Henkei! Henkei!'' Thundercracker and ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 franchise)|Universe]]'' Starscream also saw most of these changes.

*'''Masterpiece Skywarp''' (2009)
**''Accessories:'' 2 "Machine Guns", 2 missile racks, Doctor Arkeville pilot figurine, gun clip, two-piece display stand
: A [[Walmart]] exclusive redeco of the original ''Masterpiece'' Starscream mold. Just like Starscream, Skywarp is able to switch between two different faces. This release uses the Starscream's stoic and smirking alternate faces rather than the Takara ''Masterpiece'' Skywarp's newly-tooled stoic and snarling faces. Hasbro designer [[Joe Kyde]] felt the alternate snarling face did not fit Skywarp's prankster personality, so he went with the Starscream smirk face instead when designing the deco for Hasbro's release. As a result of gang molding, Skywarp also uses Starscream's stoic face, the decision being the difference between Skywarp and Starscream's stoic face was negligible enough not to make a significant difference. The toy also features a more G1 toy styled deco rather than cartoon-based, particularly in the yellow eye color and wing stripes. His purple more closely matches that of the original toy than the purple used on the Takara version, and features a lighter flat black, like the original toy, instead of Takara's darker glossy black. The Hasbro version replaces some of the dark gray of the Takara version with a dark silver, removes the arm and chest striping, but adds additional red detailing, while removing some as well. Much like Hasbro's Starscream, he does not feature any of the warning or slogan tampographs, but features tampographed striping, Decepticon symbols, and some additional paint details not present on the Takara version. The nosecone features black paint over purple plastic, allowing for easy customization of "Mexican Masterpiece Skywarp".
: The tiny Doctor Arkeville pilot figurine (molded in black with no paint applications) is also included, as well as a clasp for jet mode Skywarp to hold the gun mode Megatron that came with ''Masterpiece'' Convoy/20th Anniversary Optimus Prime and a stand (featuring Skywarp's name) with a support beam for jet or robot mode.
: Masterpiece Skywarp was also available as an Argos exclusive in the [[United Kingdom]].

:Skywarp's original toy was reissued again as part of TakaraTomy's ''[[Transformers Encore|Encore]]'' series, this time in a two-pack with his erstwhile partner, Thundercracker. This release of the figure replaced his Decepticon symbol stickers with [[tampograph]]s, and changed his purple stickers to a much bluer shade. Curiously, although Thundercracker's wing stripes were replaced with tampographs, Skywarp's remained factory-applied stickers.

**''Japanese ID number:'' '''A-04'''

:Skywarp is a [[retool]] of the simultaneously released ''[[Transformers: Alternity|Alternity]]'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Alternity|Starscream]] with a new head, transforming into a licensed 1:32 scale {{w|Mitsuoka Orochi}}. Like the other toys in the line, he features [[die-cast]] metal parts and rubber tires, as well as an opening hood, trunk and doors. This is also currently the only ''Alternity'' mold to feature [[Kibble#"Faux-parts"|a fake kibble chest]].

:In car mode, small wings are ''supposed to'' be able to flip out from under Skywarp's rear wheels, giving him the appearance of a flying car. Unfortunately, this [[gimmick]] suffers from a rather nasty [[design flaw]]: there is simply not enough clearance under the car for the wheels to be able to pass and hinge through, and attempting to do so will result in the plastic reinforcement struts underneath ''deforming the rims and chipping the tires''. His door panels also tend to detach from their [[ball joint]]s ''very easily''.

:This mold, with Skywarp's head, was also used to make [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Alternity|Thundercracker]] and [[Banzai-Tron (G1)#Alternity|Banzai-Tron]].

He transforms into an F-15 with many fuselage details borrowed from the Masterpiece version. This is also the first Seeker mold in many years to attempt an entirely new transformation, with the arms now forming the rear of the jet and the legs folding under the wings. Skywarp was available only in Japan, and like many Japanese "EZ Collection" toys, was [[blindpacking|blindpacked]].

These same Kreon accessories were also used for [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Starscream]] and [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Thundercracker]].

: A variation of Skywarp exists where initial versions of the figure feature chrome purple toes. Later versions omitted this detail. The [[stock photography]], by the way, shows him with purple-plastic legs rather than black.

: This version of Skywarp is heavily based on his cartoon appearance. He features a glossy black, a medium warm purple, shiny metallic purple paint on most of his purple plastic, and an amber cockpit. Paint operations found on the Henkei! Henkei! release were shuffled around for the sake of cartoon accuracy, up to and including purple shoulders.
: Original photos of Skywarp showed him with show-accurate all purple arm cannons, but due to gang molding (and lack of additional paint operations) only the upper most portion of his arm cannons ended up purple.

{{note|''Fall of Cybertron'' [[Skywarp (WFC)#Generations|Skywarp]] was [[repurposing|repurposed]] as Generation 1 Skywarp in the ''[[Transformers Cloud|Cloud]]'' story line.}}
: Part of the [[TakaraTomy]] ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' line, ''[[Transformers: Fall of Cybertron|Fall of Cybertron]]'' Skywarp is a redeco of ''Fall of Cybertron'' [[Starscream (WFC)#Generations|Starscream]], and transforms into a Cybertronian jet fighter. His color layout is based on that seen in ''War for Cybertron'' promotional material, with purple wings, although much of the black is replaced with a dark metallic gray.

:Skywarp comes with two spinning, triple-barreled "assault cannons" which can combine to form a larger hand-held weapon that is geared to spin its two triple-barrels together, and resembles the [[Neutron assault rifle]] from ''Fall of Cybertron''. Each of the weapon halves features two [[5mm post]]s, as well as a peg-hole on their hollow sides, while the combined form features another peg-hole at the top, but makes the peg-holes on the hollow sides inaccessible. Skywarp features numerous 5mm peg-holes, such as his hands, forearms, lower legs, and wing undersides. Additionally, his tail-fin is attached via a 5mm post on its underside, and can be detached to reveal three additional peg-holes, with two of these peg-holes being just the right distance to accommodate the two pegs found on the underside of the combined assault cannons/rifle, with the tail-fin pegging on the rifle's top peg-hole. This allows the weapon to mount on top of the vehicle mode, and store on his back in robot mode.

He comes with two spinning, triple-barreled cannons which can combine to form a larger hand-held weapon that is geared to spin its two triple-barrels together, and resembles the [[Neutron assault rifle]] from ''Fall of Cybertron''. Each of the weapon halves features two [[5mm post]]s, as well as a peg-hole on their hollow sides, while the combined form features another peg-hole at the top, but makes the peg-holes on the hollow sides inaccessible.

This allows the weapon to mount on top of the vehicle mode, and store on his back in robot mode.

:Skywarp is minimally mis-transformed in-package: his jet mode nosecone is extended, rather than folded in as it should be in robot mode. He comes packaged with a copy of [[IDW Publishing|IDW]]'s [[Winners & Losers: Dark Cybertron Chapter 3|''Robots in Disguise'' #23]].

:Despite using a mold matching [[Skywarp (WFC)|Skywarp]]'s appearance in ''[[Transformers: War for Cybertron (franchise)|War for Cybertron]]'', this toy ''technically'' represents G1 Skywarp, thanks to his [[IDW Publishing|IDW]] pack-in fiction. Consequently, the toy is listed in the former's page as a [[repurposing]]. This toy was used as ''[[Transformers Cloud|Cloud]]'' Skywarp's initial appearance and was redecoed into TakaraTomy ''Fall of Cybertron'' Skywarp and ''Generations Thrilling 30'' [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Thrilling30|Thundercracker]].

:Skywarp comes in packaging that is based on the packaging design for the concurrently released ''Combiner Wars''-era ''Generations'' figures, but replaces the name ''Generations'' with "Authentic Transformers". Since Skywarp and his [[wave]]-mates ship with three figures previously released under what we consider a generic [[Transformers (2014 toyline)|''Transformers'' (2014) toy line]], all of them now in the new packaging style, we consider Skywarp to be part of that line as well.

[[File:Decoy skywarp.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.2|Mini-wave in celebration of me! WooOOoo!]]
*'''Destron Hero Collection 22''' (multi-pack, 1986)

:Skywarp was among the many characters rendered by [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] as part of their series of 1.5" ''keshigomu'' figurines. Like all the Decepticons in the series, Skywarp was molded in soft purple rubber, and featured a number sculpted into his back that was the sum total of his [[Tech Spec]]s, for use in the various games that could be played with the figurines. He is, surprisingly enough, ''not'' identical to either Starscream or Thundercracker: the stance of his legs and the position of his Decepticon symbols differ, but he is, of course, most prominently distinguished by his raised arms.

:Skywarp was available as part of a 22-piece box set of Decepticon figures, in a peach coloration randomly packed in several box sets and with other products produced by Takara subsidiary [[Seven]], and in a wide variety of colours in "gachapon" capsule machines.

*'''Skywarp''' (1987)
**''Decoy number:'' '''33'''

: The Skywarp figurine was later brought over to [[Hasbro]] markets as part of the [[Decoy]] promotion, largely identical to the Japanese release except for the fact that the number on his back was replaced with a simple "checklist" number (33, in Skywarp's case). Like all Decepticon Decoys, he was a randomly-chosen pack-in available with the carded [[Throttlebot]]s, [[Aerialbot (G1)|Aerialbots]], [[Protectobot (G1)|Protectobots]] and [[Technobot (G1)|Technobots]], and was, very early on in the promotion, available in an alternate red coloration that was only packed in with the Throttlebots. Unsurprisingly, this red figurine is much rarer.

===Super Collection Figure===
[[File:SCF skywarp.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.2]]
*'''Skywarp''' (Lucky Draw figure, 2001)

: ''[[Super Collection Figure]]'' Skywarp is a non-transforming three-inch tall [[plastic|PVC]] figurine, [[redeco]]ed from ''SCF'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys|Starscream]]. Limited to 200 pieces, he was only available as the second place prize in a [[Lucky Draw figure|Lucky Draw]] contest held in conjunction with the first edition of ''[[Transformers Generations]]'' (with the "[[Starscream (G1)/toys#SecretStarscream|Secret Starscream]]" toy as the first place prize). Due to the bankruptcy of the ''Transformers: Generations'' publisher, [[Keibunsha]], it is unknown whether the Japanese version of Skywarp was ever actually sent out or not.

: This mold was also used to make ''Super Collection Figure'' [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys|Thundercracker]] and ''[[Heroes of Cybertron]]'' (see below) Starscream, Thundercracker, [[Sunstorm (G1)|Sunstorm]] and the [[Air Warrior]]s.

===Heroes of Cybertron===
[[File:HOC skywarp.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.2]]
*'''Skywarp''' (2002)
: When the ''Super Collection Figure'' line was brought to the US as ''[[Heroes of Cybertron]]'', Skywarp was widely released as part of the first wave. As was the standard for the line, Skywarp was made from translucent red plastic that was mostly painted over, giving him [[light-piping|light-piped]] eyes. In addition, he is distinguished from his ''Super Collection Figure'' counterpart by grey knee-vents and black foot-panels, versus the respetive purple and grey applications on the original (though several samples of the figure were missing the foot-panel paint, including the one shown at the TFU link below).
::*''[http://www.tfu.info/2002/Decepticon/HoCSkywarp/skywarp.htm More information on Heroes of Cybertron Skywarp at TFU.info]''

*'''Skywarp''' (2003)
: ''Heroes of Cybertron'' Skywarp was re-released in a six-pack of figures available exclusively at [[OTFCC 2003]]. He came packaged with the ''Heroes of Cybertron'' versions of Starscream and Thundercracker, and three exclusive [[Air Warrior]]s, all six mounted in their own individual bubbles on one large card.

===Legends of Cybertron===
*'''Skywarp''' (2004, unreleased)

[[File:OTFCCSkywarp.jpg|thumb|Doesn't so much teleport as not exist in the first place.]]

: A redeco of ''Mega Super Figure Collection'' G1 Starscream (minus the extra coronation accessories), Skywarp was to be among the first of the fan club exclusives offered by [[BotCon#BotCon history|OTFCC]] as well as the first in their ''Legends of Cybertron'' line. The figure was delayed and never saw a full release due to [[3H Productions|3H Enterprises]] losing the license to run the official Transformers fan club. At least a couple of sample versions were produced, of those most (but not all) had the open-palm hands and the hand wielding Megatron in gun mode painted blue rather than the correct purple.

*'''Skywarp''' (Palisades, 2005)

:A ''SmallBluePlanet''-exclusive redeco of the Starscream statue, Skywarp is a six inch tall polystone statue with articulated head and arms. He can stand normally or use a stand to take on a "hovering" pose. Skywarp was limited to 300 pieces, and sculpted by [[3L Creation Group]] from a design by [[George Tremarco]].

: This mold was also used to make Thundercracker and the Ghost of Starscream.

===Attacktix===
[[File:G1Skywarp-atx.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1]]
*'''Skywarp''' (Booster, <s>2007</s>)

: Skywarp was among the planned ''Transformers [[Attacktix]]'' game pieces that were showed at some conventions, but went unreleased as the line was canceled. He was to be a [[retool]] of sorts of the similarly unreleased ''[[Transformers: Energon (franchise)|Energon]]'' [[Starscream (Armada)|Starscream]], using the same weapon and base but a brand new jet mold. Skywarp would've been able to detach from his base and fly on a string, enabling him to get better shots at opposing pieces. Any other details about his role in the game are unknown.

===Robot Heroes===
[[File:Robot Hero Skywarp.jpg|right|upright=1.1|thumb|Clearly just after shoving Starscream down a flight of stairs.]]
*'''Decepticon Sneak Attack''' (2007)

: Skywarp is one of the five exclusive figures in Wal-Mart's "Decepticon Sneak Attack" set, alongside [[Cliffjumper (G1)/toys|Cliffjumper]], [[Mirage (G1)/toys|holographic Mirage]], and "Supermetal Finish" versions of [[Optimus Prime (G1)/merchandise|Optimus Prime]] and [[Megatron (G1)/toys|Megatron]]. He's a black and purple redeco of Starscream, yes. His left hand's for pushing you down stairs, his right fist's for pumping the air in victory. Sweet, sweet stair-based victory.

: This mold was also used to make Thundercracker.

===3D Battle-Card Game===

*'''Skywarp''' (2007)

: A 25-point "uncommon" character in the [[3D Battle-Card Game]]'s "Energon Wars" expansion, Skywarp "transforms" into a black and purple jet. He uses the same parts layout as [[Transformers (film)|Movie]] [[Starscream (Movie)/toys|Starscream]], [[Dreadwing (Movie)|Dreadwing]], [[Thundercracker (Movie)|Thundercracker]] and [[Jetfire (Movie)|Jetfire]], along with [[Starscream (G1)/toys|Classic Starscream]] and [[Ramjet (G1)/toys|Ramjet]]. In addition to his standard abilities such as teleportation, one of Skywarp's weapons is the obscure [[bouncer bomb]], which he used only once in the cartoon episode "[[The Immobilizer]]".

===Transformers Mini-Busts===

[[File:DST08 SkywarpBust.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.4]]
*'''Skywarp''' (San Diego Comic-Con exclusive, 2008)
:Retooled and redecoed from [[Art Asylum]]'s Starscream mini-bust, this statue depicts Skywarp in mid-teleport via translucent purple extremities. He was offered exclusively by [[Diamond Select Toys]] through the Action Figure Xpress booth at San Diego Comic-Con 2008, limited to 400 pieces.

===The Loyal Subjects===
[[File:TLS skywarp.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.4]]
*'''Skywarp''' (2014)
**''Accessories:'' Gun
:Skywarp was one of the chase figures in the second wave of 3-inch tall [[blindpacking|blindpacked]] vinyl figurines produced by [[The Loyal Subjects]]. Featuring eight ball-jointed points of articulation. Unlike the other [[1984]] style Seekers, a Skywarp is not a redeco of the Starscream and Thundercracker figurine from the first wave (who were later redecoed to create the [[Rainmaker]] trio and [[Sunstorm (G1)|Sunstorm]]), but an all new mold with different construction and parts than his predecessors. He is slightly larger than the other '84 Seekers and features more moving parts. He does share some parts with the simultaneously released [[Ramjet (G1)/toys|Ramjet]], [[Thrust (G1)/toys|Thrust]], and fellow chase figure [[Dirge (G1)/toys|Dirge]]. For every 96 figures from wave 2 of The Loyal Subjects, there is 1 Skywarp.

===D-Style===
[[File:SkywarpDstyle.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66]]
*'''Skywarp''' (09-2015)
**''ID number:'' 48
**''Accessories:'' Scowling face, smirking face, shouting face, open hand, closed hands, mini F15 jet

:A super deformed Skywarp model kit produced by [[Kotobukiya]] as part of their franchise-spanning ''[[D-Style]]'' line. Like [[Megatron (G1)/merchandise#D-Style|Megatron]] he comes with three different faces and in line with the rest of the line, comes with a mini alt mode figure, in this case an F15 jet. He also contains a replaceable open hand. His chest contains flip-up panels in his chest that reveal missile racks based on the weapons seen in the Generation 1 episode "Fire on the Mountain". The null rays can be removed and wielded as guns, and he can also hold Megatron's gun.

:In order to get the figure looking like the promotional photos, required paint applications include coloring the screaming mouth, chest fans and panel lines, missile rack surrounds, null ray panel lines, and knee vents all in black. Eyes and cockpit come in translucent colored plastic and can also be painted to improve their look. Finally, the mini F15 jet comes as a single black piece and is missing all coloring.

:He comes in a two pack along with [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#D-Style|Thundercracker]].

:This mold was also used to make ''D-Style'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#D-Style|Starscream]].

===Mecha Nations===
[[File:Mn09-skywarp.jpg|thumb]]
*'''Skywarp''' (2015)
**''ID Number:'' '''MN09'''
**''Accessories:'' alternate hands, display stand.

:Created by [[Kids Logic]], this [[super deformed]] G1 Skywarp is a redeco of Mecha Nations [[Starscream (G1)/merchandise#Mecha Nations|Starscream]] with a new face. He stands 6" tall and is articulated, featuring a shiny metallic color scheme, removable armor and replacement hands. He also features LED light up eyes, Decepticon insignias on his wings, null rays and thrusters in his feet, for use when he's "hovering", mounted on the included display stand.

:This figure was also redecoed with a different new face into Mecha Nations [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Mecha Nations|Thundercracker]], with whom he was a 2015 Toy Soul exhibition exclusive.

===Bitfig===
[[File:Bitfig-Skywarp.jpg|thumb|]]
*'''Skywarp''' (06-2017)
:Part of the second wave of Transformers Bitfig capsule toys, Skywarp's is a redco of the previously released Starscream toy whose design is inspired by his appearance in the G1 cartoon. Skywarp is articulated at the neck and shoulders. Bitfig toys were packaged in capsules color coded to the toy they contained.

{{-}}

==Notes==
[[File:Skywarpatron.jpg|right|upright=0.85|thumb]]
*In a possible fit of madness, a triple changer was proposed that would switch between Skywarp (possibly mistaken for Starscream), [[Megatron (G1)/toys|Megatron]], and Skywarp's jet mode.
*In modern times, Skywarp is often the last of the three primary Decepticon Seekers to see the use of a toyline's respective Seeker mold. This often leads to his figures becoming prominent shelfwarmers at the tail end of a line's run.

War for Cybertron: Siege

{{nav-WarForCybertronSiege}}

[[File:WFC-Siege-Poster-ArkLaunchAutobots.jpg|thumb|250px|The stege begins.]]

'''''War For Cybertron: Siege''''' is a [[subline imprint]] of the ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' toyline, and the first portion of the ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy]]''.

First revealed in mid-[[2018]] at [[San Diego Comic-Con]], ''War for Cybertron: Siege'', in keeping with the installments of the ''[[Prime Wars Trilogy]]'', features a line-wide [[gimmick]]: weaponry. Most Deluxe, Voyager, and Leader Class figures each come with at least one or two weapons that can transform, combine, and/or be placed into any [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]] posts, [[5 mm post]]s littered all over their bodies, essentially an updated version of the [[Powerlinx]] system. Another line-wide feature is battle-damaged paintjobs on Deluxe-and-up figures to fit with the gritty "war" aspect. Returning to this toyline are [[Micromaster]]s, which are bundled in two packs, replacing the Legends Class of the last half-decade, and are now able to combine into large weapons as well as transform into their vehicle form. This size class is also used for Soundwave's minions, who can turn into cassettes or be used as a shield with fold-out pegs. Replacing the [[Prime Master]]s from [[Power of the Primes (toyline)|the last toyline]] are "[[Battle Master]]s", small [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmaster]]-type figures that can combine with other weapons and figures. They include additional "Fire Blast" effect pieces that can be placed onto other weapons included with other size classes, as well as hardpoints on the figures themselves to simulate being 'shot' or on the back of vehicles to simulate "rocket boosters" or "speed", depending on the effect part. Each effect part attaches via a 3 mm hole, or in most cases, 5 mm posts too. Some Deluxe Class figures are classified as "Deluxe Weaponizers," which can be disassembled into multiple weapons to be used in the C.O.M.B.A.T. System. Leader Class figures are very similar to ''Power of the Primes'', in which smaller figures come with additional armor that can be be added to vehicle mode or robot mode to increase their size to become the height of a Leader Class figure.

The boxes of the figures have black-light revealed [[Alphabet#Generation 1 alphabets|cybertronian script]] on them which can be put into the "[[Found a hidden code?]]" game on the Transformers website.

Following in the footsteps of [[Arcee (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Arcee]], [[Grotusque#Generations|Grotusque]], and the three ''[[Prime Wars Trilogy]]'' "Special Edition" figures in 2018, Hasbro debuted a special edition ''[[Transformers: Generations#Selects|Selects]]'' deco of Voyager Class Megatron at [[Toy Fair 2019]] to celebrate the ''War for Cybertron Trilogy''. Announced at [[Toy Fair 2019]], Combat Megatron was exclusively available in the United States via online retailers such as [[BigBadToyStore]], [[Entertainment Earth]], TFSource, and Hasbro's new replacement for [[Hasbro Toy Shop]], [[Hasbro Pulse]].

Like ''[[Transformers: The Last Knight (toyline)| The Last Knight]]'', ''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'', and ''[[Studio Series]]'', [[TakaraTomy]]'s ''Transformers Siege'' (トランスフォーマーシージ) toyline sees their new "brand unification" strategy in full effect. As such, Takara ''Siege'' toys are completely identical to their [[Hasbro]] counterparts, just released in different waves and given new "ID" numbers.

War for Cybertron: Siege

2019-06-25T04:40:00Z

Garfieldwxg55: /* Store exclusives */

{{nav-WarForCybertronSiege}}

[[File:WFC-Siege-Poster-ArkLaunchAutobots.jpg|thumb|250px|The stege begins.]]

'''''War For Cybertron: Siege''''' is a [[subline imprint]] of the ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' toyline, and the first portion of the ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy]]''.

First revealed in mid-[[2018]] at [[San Diego Comic-Con]], ''War for Cybertron: Siege'', in keeping with the installments of the ''[[Prime Wars Trilogy]]'', features a line-wide [[gimmick]]: weaponry. Most Deluxe, Voyager, and Leader Class figures each come with at least one or two weapons that can transform, combine, and/or be placed into any [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]] posts, [[5 mm post]]s littered all over their bodies, essentially an updated version of the [[Powerlinx]] system. Another line-wide feature is battle-damaged paintjobs on Deluxe-and-up figures to fit with the gritty "war" aspect. Returning to this toyline are [[Micromaster]]s, which are bundled in two packs, replacing the Legends Class of the last half-decade, and are now able to combine into large weapons as well as transform into their vehicle form. This size class is also used for Soundwave's minions, who can turn into cassettes or be used as a shield with fold-out pegs. Replacing the [[Prime Master]]s from [[Power of the Primes (toyline)|the last toyline]] are "[[Battle Master]]s", small [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmaster]]-type figures that can combine with other weapons and figures. They include additional "Fire Blast" effect pieces that can be placed onto other weapons included with other size classes, as well as hardpoints on the figures themselves to simulate being 'shot' or on the back of vehicles to simulate "rocket boosters" or "speed", depending on the effect part. Each effect part attaches via a 3 mm hole, or in most cases, 5 mm posts too. Some Deluxe Class figures are classified as "Deluxe Weaponizers," which can be disassembled into multiple weapons to be used in the C.O.M.B.A.T. System. Leader Class figures are very similar to ''Power of the Primes'', in which smaller figures come with additional armor that can be be added to vehicle mode or robot mode to increase their size to become the height of a Leader Class figure.

The boxes of the figures have black-light revealed [[Alphabet#Generation 1 alphabets|cybertronian script]] on them which can be put into the "[[Found a hidden code?]]" game on the Transformers website.

Following in the footsteps of [[Arcee (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Arcee]], [[Grotusque#Generations|Grotusque]], and the three ''[[Prime Wars Trilogy]]'' "Special Edition" figures in 2018, Hasbro debuted a special edition ''[[Transformers: Generations#Selects|Selects]]'' deco of Voyager Class Megatron at [[Toy Fair 2019]] to celebrate the ''War for Cybertron Trilogy''. Announced at [[Toy Fair 2019]], Combat Megatron was exclusively available in the United States via online retailers such as [[BigBadToyStore]], [[Entertainment Earth]], TFSource, and Hasbro's new replacement for [[Hasbro Toy Shop]], [[Hasbro Pulse]].

==''Siege'' (TakaraTomy)==
Like ''[[Transformers: The Last Knight (toyline)| The Last Knight]]'', ''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'', and ''[[Studio Series]]'', [[TakaraTomy]]'s ''Transformers Siege'' (トランスフォーマーシージ) toyline sees their new "brand unification" strategy in full effect. As such, Takara ''Siege'' toys are completely identical to their [[Hasbro]] counterparts, just released in different waves and given new "ID" numbers.

Another line-wide feature is battle-damaged paintjobs on Deluxe-and-up figures to fit with the gritty "war" aspect. Returning to this toyline are [[Micromaster]]s, which are bundled in two packs, replacing the Legends Class of the last half-decade, and are now able to combine into large weapons as well as transform into their vehicle form. This size class is also used for Soundwave's minions, who can turn into cassettes or be used as a shield with fold-out pegs. Replacing the [[Prime Master]]s from [[Power of the Primes (toyline)|the last toyline]] are "[[Battle Master]]s", small [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmaster]]-type figures that can combine with other weapons and figures. They include additional "Fire Blast" effect pieces that can be placed onto other weapons included with other size classes, as well as hardpoints on the figures themselves to simulate being 'shot' or on the back of vehicles to simulate "rocket boosters" or "speed", depending on the effect part. Each effect part attaches via a 3 mm hole, or in most cases, 5 mm posts too. Some Deluxe Class figures are classified as "Deluxe Weaponizers," which can be disassembled into multiple weapons to be used in the C.O.M.B.A.T. System. Leader Class figures are very similar to ''Power of the Primes'', in which smaller figures come with additional armor that can be be added to vehicle mode or robot mode to increase their size to become the height of a Leader Class figure.

The boxes of the figures have black-light revealed [[Alphabet#Generation 1 alphabets|cybertronian script]] on them which can be put into the "[[Found a hidden code?]]" game on the Transformers website.

Like ''[[Transformers: The Last Knight (toyline)| The Last Knight]]'', ''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'', and ''[[Studio Series]]'', [[TakaraTomy]]'s ''Transformers Siege'' (トランスフォーマーシージ) toyline sees their new "brand unification" strategy in full effect. As such, Takara ''Siege'' toys are completely identical to their [[Hasbro]] counterparts, just released in different waves and given new "ID" numbers.

[[File:WFC-Siege-Poster-ArkLaunchAutobots.jpg|thumb|250px|The stege begins.]]

'''''War For Cybertron: Siege''''' is a [[subline imprint]] of the ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' toyline, and the first portion of the ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy]]''.

First revealed in mid-[[2018]] at [[San Diego Comic-Con]], ''War for Cybertron: Siege'', in keeping with the installments of the ''[[Prime Wars Trilogy]]'', features a line-wide [[gimmick]]: weaponry. Most Deluxe, Voyager, and Leader Class figures each come with at least one or two weapons that can transform, combine, and/or be placed into any [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]] posts, [[5 mm post]]s littered all over their bodies, essentially an updated version of the [[Powerlinx]] system. Another line-wide feature is battle-damaged paintjobs on Deluxe-and-up figures to fit with the gritty "war" aspect. Returning to this toyline are [[Micromaster]]s, which are bundled in two packs, replacing the Legends Class of the last half-decade, and are now able to combine into large weapons as well as transform into their vehicle form. This size class is also used for Soundwave's minions, who can turn into cassettes or be used as a shield with fold-out pegs. Replacing the [[Prime Master]]s from [[Power of the Primes (toyline)|the last toyline]] are "[[Battle Master]]s", small [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmaster]]-type figures that can combine with other weapons and figures. They include additional "Fire Blast" effect pieces that can be placed onto other weapons included with other size classes, as well as hardpoints on the figures themselves to simulate being 'shot' or on the back of vehicles to simulate "rocket boosters" or "speed", depending on the effect part. Each effect part attaches via a 3 mm hole, or in most cases, 5 mm posts too. Some Deluxe Class figures are classified as "Deluxe Weaponizers," which can be disassembled into multiple weapons to be used in the C.O.M.B.A.T. System. Leader Class figures are very similar to ''Power of the Primes'', in which smaller figures come with additional armor that can be be added to vehicle mode or robot mode to increase their size to become the height of a Leader Class figure.

The boxes of the figures have black-light revealed [[Alphabet#Generation 1 alphabets|cybertronian script]] on them which can be put into the "[[Found a hidden code?]]" game on the Transformers website.

War for Cybertron: Siege

[[File:WFC-Siege-Poster-ArkLaunchAutobots.jpg|thumb|250px|The stege begins.]]

'''''War For Cybertron: Siege''''' is a [[subline imprint]] of the ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' toyline, and the first portion of the ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy]]''.

First revealed in mid-[[2018]] at [[San Diego Comic-Con]], ''War for Cybertron: Siege'', in keeping with the installments of the ''[[Prime Wars Trilogy]]'', features a line-wide [[gimmick]]: weaponry. Most Deluxe, Voyager, and Leader Class figures each come with at least one or two weapons that can transform, combine, and/or be placed into any [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]] posts, [[5 mm post]]s littered all over their bodies, essentially an updated version of the [[Powerlinx]] system. Another line-wide feature is battle-damaged paintjobs on Deluxe-and-up figures to fit with the gritty "war" aspect. Returning to this toyline are [[Micromaster]]s, which are bundled in two packs, replacing the Legends Class of the last half-decade, and are now able to combine into large weapons as well as transform into their vehicle form. This size class is also used for Soundwave's minions, who can turn into cassettes or be used as a shield with fold-out pegs. Replacing the [[Prime Master]]s from [[Power of the Primes (toyline)|the last toyline]] are "[[Battle Master]]s", small [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmaster]]-type figures that can combine with other weapons and figures. They include additional "Fire Blast" effect pieces that can be placed onto other weapons included with other size classes, as well as hardpoints on the figures themselves to simulate being 'shot' or on the back of vehicles to simulate "rocket boosters" or "speed", depending on the effect part. Each effect part attaches via a 3 mm hole, or in most cases, 5 mm posts too. Some Deluxe Class figures are classified as "Deluxe Weaponizers," which can be disassembled into multiple weapons to be used in the C.O.M.B.A.T. System. Leader Class figures are very similar to ''Power of the Primes'', in which smaller figures come with additional armor that can be be added to vehicle mode or robot mode to increase their size to become the height of a Leader Class figure.

The boxes of the figures have black-light revealed [[Alphabet#Generation 1 alphabets|cybertronian script]] on them which can be put into the "[[Found a hidden code?]]" game on the Transformers website.

==Notes==
*The names of many individual figures from this line were revealed by listings on [[Walmart]] and [[Amazon (website)|Amazon Australia]] prior to being formally unveiled by Hasbro at conventions.
*''Siege'' toys debuted at the tail end of October 2018 with the Voyager Class available from U.S. comic stores and private dealers, followed up by Battle Masters at [[Target]] on November 4, 2018.
*Deluxe Class Red Alert was accidentally revealed by Hasbro by being featured as the "core" figure in the [[stock photography|stock CG render]] showcasing the use of Brunt's Weaponizer parts released during New York Comic-Con in October 2018. Full on stock renders were found on different websites, such as [[Target]] and [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] leading to New York [[Toy Fair 2019]], midway through February, where his existence was finally acknowledged.

Red Wing (G1)

2019-06-02T02:09:52Z

Garfieldwxg55: /* Generations */

{{factions|decepticon}}
:''Red Wing is a [[Decepticon]] from the [[Generation 1 continuity family|Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''
[[File:Red Wing profile image.jpg|thumb|upright=1.67|We swear, if he throws [[Octopunch (G1)|Octopunch]] ''one more time''...]]

'''Red Wing''' is a [[Seeker (body-type)|Seeker]]. He has a "devil may care" attitude and some powerful guns, so what more do you need? Sadly, he's probably not the partner of [[Falcon (superhero)|Falcon]].

==Fiction==
===''Wings Universe''===
Red Wing was part of a joint [[Autobot]]/[[Decepticon]] assault on the [[Cybertronian (faction)|Cybertronian]] clone army. In the ensuing battle, Red Wing was shot in the back by [[Skywarp (MW)|Skywarp]]. {{storylink|Termination}}

===''Kre-O'' online manga===
[[File:Red_Wing_Kre-O_Character_Image.jpg|thumb|left|"Sorry, you're too hot to know me, babe!"]]

Red Wing was among [[Bludgeon (G1)|Bludgeon]]'s troops as they discovered the [[Red Bucket]]. {{storylink|Treasure Competition! Defeat with Block Power!}}

===''TransTech''===
Red Wing was one of many [[Offworlder]]s in [[Axiom Nexus]]'s Under City. Red Wing was part of a crowd in [[Seeker-Shinai]] that [[Megatron (Movie)|C-81]] attempted to disperse through intimidation. Unfortunately, all the Seekers present were too stunned to see a "Megatron" in Axiom Nexus to budge. {{storylink|Cybertron's Most Wanted}}

===2005 IDW continuity===
Red Wing was one of the Decepticons who joined [[Needlenose (G1)|Needlenose]] and [[Brawl (G1)|Brawl]] for [[Galvatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Galvatron]]'s ill-fated assault on [[Shanghai]], [[China]]. {{storylink|All Hail Optimus Part 1: Once Upon a Time on Earth|Once Upon a Time on Earth}}

==Games==
===''Transformers Legends''===
When the Decepticons used [[Chronogon]] portals to send the [[Aerialbot (G1)|Aerialbots]] back in time, Red Wing took part in an operation to try and prevent Orion Pax's recreation as [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]]. {{storylink|Golden Age (Legends)|Golden Age}}

==Toys==
===Generations===
[[File:SiegeRedWing.jpg|thumb|300px|]]
*'''Decepticon Red Wing''' (Voyager Class, [[2019]])
**''ID number'': '''WFC-GS02'''
***"Accessories: 2 "HPI Null-Ray Laser Launchers'''

:''[[War for Cybertron: Siege (toyline)|Siege]]'' Decepticon Red Wing is a ''[[Transformers: Generations#Selects|Generations Selects]]'' figure. Red Wing is a redeco of ''Siege'' [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Thundercracker]], himself a minor retool of ''Siege'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Starscream]]. Like Starscream and Thundercracker, he features hardpoints to accommodate "Fire Blast" effect parts, and will include Battle Damage paint applications all over his body.
{{comingsoontoy}}

==Notes==
*Red Wing owes his entire existence to a series of miscommunications between [[Hasbro]], [[TakaraTomy]], [[e-HOBBY]], and [[Fun Publications]], coupled with a slight coloring error: FunPub's original plans for the [[BotCon 2013]] exclusive toys were to have a souvenir three-pack featuring redecos of ''[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Classics|Starscream]] with color schemes based on the "welcoming committee" from the [[More than Meets the Eye, Part 1|Generation 1 cartoon's first episode]]. However, at the time, FunPub had just entered a partnership with e-HOBBY in Japan, and since e-HOBBY were the ones who had originally turned the generic orange [[Seeker (body-type)|Seeker]] into an actual character and given him the name "[[Sunstorm (G1)|Sunstorm]]", and e-HOBBY had plans to release their own Sunstorm redeco of the figure, FunPub decided to exclude Sunstorm from the set, and instead replace him with a new character named "Hotlink" (at that time, the purple Seeker would have been named "Nacelle") that would have sported a more red-ish orange color scheme, with the [[Termination|BotCon 2013 exclusive comic]] intended to feature both Sunstorm and "Hotlink". However, TakaraTomy subsequently denied e-HOBBY the permission to release their version of Sunstorm, because according to their information, Hasbro themselves were planning to release a new Sunstorm toy. After a while, FunPub realized that Takara might have very well been referring to their own (since shelved) BotCon exclusive figure... so they eventually decided to go ahead and change the figure to be included in the set back to Sunstorm, while the name "[[Hotlink (G1)|Hotlink]]" was reassigned to the purple Seeker (the name "Nacelle" was later given to [[Nacelle (G1)|yet ''another'' Seeker]]). Because that change was made at the last moment, the comic still ended up featuring both the more yellow-ish orange Sunstorm and the more red-ish orange Seeker... however, in the final printed comic, that latter Seeker ended up looking ''very'' red and not much orange due to the lighting effects and contrast with the background.<ref name="bc13seekers">[https://www.allspark.com/forums/topic/156054-generations-selects-brown-box-revealed-pg-7/page-9#entry3834842 Post by Fun Publications' Jesse Wittenrich on The Allspark Forums, 15 January 2019]</ref><ref name="whois">[https://twitter.com/JesseWittenrich/status/1096940990424854528 Series of posts by Jesse Wittenrich on Twitter.]</ref> Following the convention, [[Randy Para|one fan]] kept persistently inquiring about the identity of the mysterious "red" Seeker both online and offline, and thus Fun Publications finally ended up naming the character "Red Wing" via Twitter.

Slamdance (G1)

2019-06-02T02:06:57Z

Garfieldwxg55: /* Generations */

{{factions|autobot}}
{{disambig3|Slamdance}}
:''Slamdance is an [[Autobot]] [[Autobot Mini-Cassette|Mini-Cassette]] [[combiner]] from the [[Generation 1 continuity family|Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''
[[File:Slamdance MTMTE.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|Thanks to combiner technology, Slamdance can be both fair and balanced.]]
'''Slamdance''' is not a great warrior, but he is a brilliant journalist. The combined form of [[Grand Slam (G1)|Grand Slam]] and [[Raindance]], he combines the former's gravitas and vanity with the latter's mastery in data gathering. He can be a bit stuffy, but his dedication to presenting an accurate and unbiased account of current events is welcomed in his war-tossed times. He keeps the Autobots honest.

==Fiction==
===Dreamwave ''Generation One'' continuity===
Merged as Slamdance, Raindance and Grand Slam served as a correspondent overseeing the [[Pax Cybertronia]] between the Autobots, Decepticons, and [[Ultracon]]s. Engineered by [[Ultra Magnus (G1)|Ultra Magnus]] and accepted by [[Shockwave (G1)|Shockwave]] and Ratbat as a means for pooling their dwindling energy resources, the Pax was to be an ending of the Dark Ages. Unfortunately, a bombing run followed by an all-out assault by Starscream and his [[Predacon (War Within)|Predacons]] ended all hopes of an easy truce, and the dramatic return of [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]] with his cloned [[Air Warrior|Aerospace Extermination Squadron]] ended any ideas of truce at all. {{storylink|The Age of Wrath}} Slamdance avoided the termination sweeps only by falling deep underground. {{storylink|The Age of Wrath Pt.3}} He eventually linked up with the resistance movement organized by Blaster and [[Perceptor (G1)|Perceptor]], {{storylink|The Age of Wrath Pt.2}} and shared the story of how he narrowly escaped death with [[Eject (G1)|Eject]], [[Rewind (G1)|Rewind]], [[Flash (G1)|Flash]], [[Scorch (G1)|Scorch]], and [[Boss (G1)|Boss]]. {{storylink|The Age of Wrath Pt.3}}

{{Unreleased WW comic}}
Slamdance and the Triggerbots accompanied Blaster as he used an ancient map of Cybertron's depths to infiltrate Megatron's slave camp, only for them to be discovered by Megatron himself. {{storylink|The Age of Wrath Pt.4}}

===''Wings Universe''===
[[File:SlamdanceDissesCassiopeia AroundCybertron11.jpg|left|upright=1.4|thumb]]
Slamdance took it upon himself to start setting up his own broadcast in the middle of a [[Cassiopeia|competing network anchorperson's shot]]. When confronted about the matter, he mentioned that nobody was watching [[Around Cybertron|the other channel]] anyway, and, oh yeah, they'd been scooped on knowing about the [[Combaticon (G1)|Combaticon]]s' capture. Oops, maybe he should have kept that a secret... {{storylink|Around Cybertron#Around Cybertron #11|Around Cybertron #11}}
{{-}}

===2005 IDW continuity===
{{first|[[Chaos Part Three: Kings|''The Transformers'' vol. 1 #28]]}}
[[File:PostHoc-Slamdance.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66]]
As a reporter for the [[Iaconian Newsfeed Service]], Slamdance reported [[Nominus Prime]]'s death before the war. {{storylink|Shadowplay, Part 1: Post Hoc|Post Hoc}} While reporting on a newly emerged and controversial recording of [[Pious Maximus]], he was interrupted by the news of a police chase taking place in the [[Translucentica Heights]]. {{storylink|Shadowplay, Part 2: Patternism|Patternism}} A short time later, he reported that the [[Decepticon Registration Act|registration period]] for [[Decepticon]]s had been closed. {{storylink|Shadowplay (Conclusion): An Intimate Beheading|An Intimate Beheading}} As the war began with [[Megatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Megatron]]'s rebellion, Slamdance reported that the INS had received footage of [[Sentinel Prime (G1)|Sentinel Prime]]'s body following his death at Megatron's hands. {{storylink|The Last Autobot}}

Slamdance was stationed at the [[Kimia Facility]] and was present when it was attacked by [[Cyclonus (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Cyclonus]] and an army of [[Sweep (G1)|Sweeps]]. He managed to escape in a cramped escape pod piloted by [[Chromedome (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Chromedome]] and [[Brainstorm (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Brainstorm]]. He and the others drifted in the pod for some time until they were rescued by [[Arcee (G1)|Arcee]]. {{storylink|Chaos Part Three: Kings|Kings}} From her and [[Hardhead (G1)|Hardhead]], they learned about [[Galvatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Galvatron]]'s misguided plan to save the universe (which would in actuality let the [[Dead Universe]] into it), prompting them to fly the ship to Cybertron and help defeat him. {{storylink|Chaos Part Four: Genesis|Genesis}}

Footage from one of Slamdance's reports was incorporated by [[Rewind (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Rewind]] into his final, stitched-together message to Chromedome. {{storylink|The Gloaming}} Following the end of the war, he reported on the public opinion on the Autobots changing in the wake of Megatron's trial. {{storylink|World, Shut Your Mouth Part 2: Words Hang in the Air|Words Hang in the Air}}

In this combined mode he can make use of all of his components' chromed add-on weapons. Since the two individuals were only ever sold as a combined set, that was the only way to get Slamdance.

Much red plastic has been sacrificed in the name of '''Sideswipe'''!

**''Japanese ID number:'' '''04''', '''TFC-07'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:Originally a ''[[Diaclone]]'' "New [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes#Lamborghini Countach|Countach LP500S]]", Sideswipe transforms into... well, into that. In [[robot mode]] he is armed with a white rifle and a missile launcher that can clip onto either of his shoulders. The launcher can fire one of three included white missiles, in theory, as the springs were weakened for the US release [[for safety reasons]]. The original 1984 US release did not have the [[rubsign]] found on later releases.

:When Hasbro released the original Generation 1 toys in continental [[Europe]] through its then recently acquired subsidiary [[Milton Bradley]] in 1985, several toys, such as the Autobot Cars, were actually pre-existing stock originally intended for [[Joustra]]'s version of the ''[[Diaclone]]'' line that was acquired by Hasbro as part of an agreement with Joustra and put into MB-branded ''Transformers'' packaging. For some reason, the Sunstreaker toy (sporting its yellow Hasbro ''Transformers'' colors due to being produced during the ''Diaclone''/''Transformers'' transitional period) was released in packaging intended for his brother Sideswipe, an entirely different sculpt. The packaging even included Sideswipe's instructions and sticker sheet, neither of which were of much use for the toy. It's currently unknown whether the actual Sideswipe toy was ever sold in MB "Sideswipe" packaging at all, although considering the origin of the MB-branded Autobot Cars, it's very unlikely for this to be the case.<ref name="mbsunswipe">[http://20thcenturytoycollector.com/mb-transformers-part-6/ "MB Transformers: Part 6"] at 20th Century Toy Collector.</ref>

:This sculpt was also used to make [[Red Alert (G1)/toys|Red Alert]], [[Clamp Down]], [[Deep Cover]] and [[Tigertrack]].

:A non-transforming action figure that combines elements from both his original toy and his [[Character model|animation model]], [[Action Master]] Sideswipe is compatible with any other Action Master weapon or vehicle. His [[Action Master partner|partner]]-unit [[Vanguard]] forms a backpack and battle helmet, and complements Sideswipe's color scheme quite well.

:Part of the first assortment of Autobot cars, Sideswipe's original toy had his colors re-arranged to a black car mode with red and white robot parts, plus new [[neon]] green "racing" decals were added to the mix. His original rocket launcher was removed, and replaced with a large spring-loaded launcher that could be hand-held or mounted on his [[retool]]ed car mode roof.

:His new spring-loaded missile launcher was taken from [http://www.yojoe.com/action/91/snowserpent2.shtml Snow Serpent] from the ''[[G.I. Joe (team)|G.I. Joe]]'' toyline.

:In 2001, the Generation 1 Sideswipe toy was re-released by [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] under his Japanese name "Lambor", as a set bundled with his [[mold]]-mate [[Red Alert (G1)/toys|Red Alert]] ("Alert" in Japan), [[exclusive]] to World Character Convention 12. His license plate decal was changed from the infringing "COUNTACH" to "CAR MACHINE".

{{anchor|NewYearSpecial}}
*'''Lambor''' (e-HOBBY exclusive, Japan 2002)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''04'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:Lambor (Sideswipe) and Alert (Red Alert) were once again re-released together in January 2002 as an [[e-HOBBY]] exclusive "New Year Special" set. This version of the figure came with an alternate [[sticker]] sheet that changed the color of several of his decals: the blue stickers on his shins and stomach became red, while blue arrows on his feet were switched to yellow. He came with a new bio card with new art by [[Hidetsugu Yoshioka]].

===The Transformers Collection===
*'''Lambor''' (Japan 2003)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''07'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:The version of Generation 1 Sideswipe previously released as an e-HOBBY exclusive, minus the extra decal sheet, was ''again'' re-released as part of ''[[The Transformers Collection]]'' "book-box" series.

:One of several [[exclusive]]s to [[OTFCC 2003]], ''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' Sideswipe is a [[redeco]] of the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|2001 ''Robots in Disguise'']] [[Prowl (RID)#Toys|Prowl]] mold, once again transforming into a Lamborghini Diablo. A pair of add-on thrusters become arm-mounted launchers for robot mode; each one being a pressure-launch missile launcher.

:The part that connects the toy's windshield to the main body uses a red [[sticker]] rather than paint, as that part is made out of [[unpaintable plastic]]. The police lights from the original mold were removed, leaving this area bare.

:This mold was also used to make ''Universe'' [[Inferno (Universe)|Inferno]] and the ''Universe'' incarnation of [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Universe (2003)|Generation 1 Sunstreaker]].

{{note|While the toy's name was spelled "Sideswipe" (one word) on its own packaging, the cross-sell on the packaging for the OTFCC 2003 [[Shadow Striker (Universe)|Shadow Striker]]/[[Roulette (Universe)|Roulette]] two-pack spelled it "Side Swipe" (two words) instead.

===Smallest Transforming Transformers===
[[File:STFLambor.jpg|upright=1.75|thumb|Yet another release Sunstreaker just wasn't cool enough for.]]
*'''Lambor''' (2003)
**''Japanese ID number'': '''GTF-02'''

:''[[Smallest Transforming Transformers]]'' Lambor is a very small-scale, extensively simplified replica of the original Sideswipe toy. He has very little articulation, he has no weapons, and his vehicle mode wheels cannot roll.

:This mold was [[retool]]ed to make ''Smallest Transforming Transformers'' [[Red Alert (G1)/toys|Alert]].

===Alternators/Binaltech===
[[File:AlternatorsSide Swipe toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Just think, he was almost Tracks.]]
*'''Side Swipe''' (2003, [[2004]])
**''Alternator ID number:'' '''2'''
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''BT-02'''
**''Accessories:'' Dodge Viper Engine/gun

:The second ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' toy released, Side Swipe's [[alternate mode]] is a [[licensed vehicle alternate modes|licensed]] 1:24 scale [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes#Dodge Viper .28Chrysler.29|Dodge Viper]] (identified as an SRT-10 model by the Japanese ''Binaltech'' version) featuring opening doors, a detailed interior, and a hood that opens to reveal an engine bay holding a replica Viper V-10 engine. The vehicle mode also features movable steering and [[rubber tires]] with [[vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metalized]] wheels. His removable engine becomes a blaster.

:The main difference between Hasbro's ''Alternators'' Side Swipe and Takara's ''Binaltech'' "Lambor" releases is that the ''Binaltech'' version has die-cast metal parts for most of the car's outer body shell, with the exception of the rear end (the "backpack" [[kibble]] in robot mode), and the entire red exterior of the car is fully painted, unlike the ''Alternators'' version's flat red plastic. Furthermore, the ''Alternators'' version sports additional "blackwash" [[paint operation]]s on his chest the ''Binaltech'' version lacks.

:The Dodge Viper sculpt was originally designed to be a new body for [[Tracks (G1)/toys|Tracks]] after the first attempt to secure the Corvette license had fallen through. Eventually, though, Chevrolet had a change of mind and granted Hasbro and Takara the license for the Corvette design after all. As a result, the Viper mold was slightly redesigned, was given a new head sculpt and released as Sideswipe (or "Side Swipe") instead. This explains why, unlike most of the early Alternators toys, Side Swipe's robot mode bears little resemblance to his G1 self. The most noticeable redesign from the "Tracks" design was the vehicle mode's doors being moved from the "backpack" kibble (where they would have resembled the G1 Tracks toy's wings) to the sides of the arms, thus being the most obvious visual cue taken from the G1 Sideswipe toy. The doors are, however, still splayed out to the sides in the ''Alternators'' version's [[package art]] and can be moved to match Tracks's wing configuration, which implies that the redesign may have been done before the switch from Tracks to Sideswipe was made.

:This sculpt was [[retool]]ed to make [[Dead End (G1)#Alternators/Binaltech|Dead End]], who was then [[redeco]]ed into [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Alternators|Sunstreaker]] (although the retool was originally done with Sunstreaker in mind).

===Commemorative Series===
[[File:Sideswipebox.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb]]
*'''Side Swipe''' (Toys"R"Us exclusive, USA/Australia/Canada 2004; KB Toys exclusive, USA 2005; Asian markets exclusive, 2012)
**''Series:'' '''VIII'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:The version of Generation 1 Sideswipe previously released as part of Takara's "Transformers Collection" series, albeit with its spring-loaded launcher de-sprung [[for safety reasons]], was reissued by [[Hasbro]] under the modified name "Side Swipe" as part of their [[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]] VIII, one of the last American reissues. However, because [[Toys"R"Us]], who had carried the Commemorative Series as an [[exclusive]] line up until that point, had abruptly decided to discontinue the line, Side Swipe was only released in very low quantities in the United States; in fact, his availability at TRU was considered a myth for many years. The unsold stock was made available a year later through [[KB Toys]] stores and outlets, at half the original price. The figure ''was'', however, available at Toys"R"Us stores in Australia and Canada in 2004 in average quantities.

:In 2012, several Commemorative Series figures, among them Side Swipe, were re-released in Hasbro's Asian markets, in slightly altered packaging. Unlike most of the other figures from this batch, Side Swipe retained the "Commemorative Series VIII" label on his box; however, the background color of the "choking hazard" safety warning label was changed from red to black, the Hasbro logo was updated to the then-current version, and the "+" after the "Ages 5+" recommendation was increased in size. Oddly, even though Hasbro had started spelling the name of toys of the character as "Sideswipe" again in 2008, this release still rendered the name as "Side Swipe".

===Universe (2008)===
[[File:Universe2008 SideSwipe toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Better red than...]]
*'''Sideswipe''' (Deluxe, 2008)
**''Series'': '''Classic Series'''
**''Accessories:'' "Flare Launcher", engine supercharger intakes

:Part of the third wave of [[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|2008 ''Universe'']] Deluxe Class toys, Sideswipe is a retool/[[redeco]] of ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'' [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Universe (2008)|Sunstreaker]], transforming into a modified {{w|Lamborghini Gallardo}}. Though the car is mostly based upon the Gallardo, to avoid legal problems, it also features modified headlights and elements taken from other cars—most of them are taken from other Lamborghini models, such as a rear end that is basically a cross between a {{w|Lamborghini Murciélago|Murciélago}} and a {{w|Lamborghini Diablo|Diablo}}; however, the split side windows and the ridges on the door vents are based on a {{w|McLaren F1}}. He also comes with the same roof-mounted engine supercharger accessory as Sunstreaker. Hasbro's early plans for Sunstreaker and Sideswipe had the two as straight redecos of each other, only differing in their head sculpts besides their colors—namely, Sunstreaker would have just been Sideswipe in yellow with a different head. It was [[TakaraTomy]] designer [[Hisashi Yuki]] who suggested an alternate transformation by turning the upper body by 180 degrees (and swapping the hands to accommodate the different upper body orientation), thus providing more individual robot mode looks for the two characters that resemble their respective ''[[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1]]'' designs more.<ref name="generations2009">Interview with Hisashi Yuki in [[Transformers Generations 2009|''Transformers Generations 2009'' vol. 1]], [http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-news-rumors/223379-takaratomy-staff-interview-generations-2009-vol-1-translation.html English translation] at TFW2005.</ref>

:[[File:SunstreakerSideswipeSDCC2007.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4|''Universe'' [[Tigertrack]]. Fortunately, this didn't happen.]]
:Hasbro also originally intended the [[alternate mode]]'s supercharger to split into two halves which would then become the handgun and a spring-loaded shoulder launcher for the robot mode. On the final toy, the Flare Launcher (a redeco of Sunstreaker's Electron Pulse Blaster) can be combined with the removable supercharger engine accessory by wrapping the intakes around the gun and mounted in either of the holes on his shoulders to simulate Sideswipe's Generation 1 missile launcher. Of course, this leaves him without a hand-held weapon. The engine can also be mounted on Sideswipe's back as his [[Jet pack|rocket pack]]. Most of this is not shown in the [[instructions]], which only instruct the owner of the toy to put the gun in his hand and attach the supercharger to his back.

:Even worse, Sideswipe's instruction line art is recycled from Sunstreaker's instructions and therefore incorrectly gives him Sunstreaker's transformation and head, despite the [[stock photography|stock photo]] depicted on top of the instructions showing him with the hood as the chest and the correct Sideswipe head.<ref>[http://hasbro.com/common/instruct/83685.pdf Official Universe Sideswipe instructions PDF file on Hasbro.com]</ref> Unfortunately, the stock photo Hasbro provided to online retailers retains this incorrect transformation, and [[:File:UniSideswipeStockPhoto.jpg|throws in some additional mistakes as well]]. Oy.

:The Sunstreaker/Sideswipe sculpt was also retooled into ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' [[Punch (G1)#Timelines|Punch]], [[Breakdown (G1)#Timelines|''Generation 2'' Breakdown]], and [[Breakdown (G1)#G1TimelinesBreakdown|Generation 1 Breakdown]], as well as ''[[Henkei!

*'''Lambor''' (Deluxe, [[2008]]-[[October 23|10-23]])
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''C-09'''
**''Accessories:'' "Flare Launcher"

:The Japanese version of ''Universe'' Sideswipe has [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum metallized]] silver on his flare launcher and his spoiler, but does not come with the supercharger engine/[[Jet pack|rocket pack]] accessory that Henkei Sunstreaker and ''Universe'' Sunstreaker/Sideswipe included. This was a willful decision meant to differentiate further between him and Sunstreaker. That's right: Takara ''deliberately omitted an optional accessory'' to make the toy more "G1-accurate".<ref name="generations2009"/>

:He also has correct, personalized [[instructions]] that aren't just Sunstreaker's. Like Sunstreaker, the Japanese version's roof paint is a much closer match to the red colored plastic. The Japanese version also features a glossier black paint and the white has a yellow tint compared the white plastic used for Hasbro version. His [[license plate]] says "LAMBOR" rather than "SWIPE".

*'''Sideswipe''' ([[BotCon 2010]] customization class Deluxe)
**''Accessories'': Gun/tailpipe, engine supercharger intakes

:A ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]''-style redeco of ''Universe'' Sideswipe, ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' Sideswipe is pre-molded in new colors, which was unprecedented for the BotCon customization class exclusive (and apparently came as a surprise to [[Fun Publications]]). During the class, the mold was assembled, painted and stickered by the enrollees. Between the two classes, there were 52 participants.

:The exact brands and colors of paints utilized to paint this figure were:

:-Polly Scale #F414296 Stainless Steel (face and hub caps)
:-Polly Scale #F505020 Red RLM23 (this color is discontinued from the manufacturer)
:-Model Master Acryl #4769 Flat White (base coat under RLM 23 on hood)
:-Model Master Acryl #4768 Flat Black (tires)
:-Model Master Acryl #4721 Insignia Yellow (side markers)
:-Model Master Acryl #4637 Semi-Gloss Clear
:-Model Master Acryl #4609 British Crimson (tail lights)
:-Model Master Acryl #4746 Medium Gray (base coat under RLM 23 on upper arms, under Stainless Steel on face and hubcaps)
:-Vallejo #72023 Electric Blue (gun tip)

:In regards to the plastic mold changes, white remains white, but like the original ''Generation 2'' figure, the red and black colors are swapped. Clear green replaces the clear plastic used for the window and thighs.

:This figure uses the ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' [[Red Alert (G1)#Generations|Red Alert]] version of the mold, which includes two screw holes in the canopy (rather than one like ''Henkei! Henkei!'' Alert or none like all other versions of this mold). The samples [[Shawn D. Tessmann|Shawn Tessmann]] had on display used the original version of the mold, and lacked the screw holes. Despite the mold change, the lightbar was not included. These holes replace the slots used to mount the rocket pack in robot mode. The rocket pack can still be mounted on the gun in robot mode and in car mode though. As an unintended result of having empty screw holes over the rocket pack sockets, Sideswipe can now mount his gun inside either screw hole on the roof of his car mode.

:The unassembled figure was also given out to those who volunteered at BotCon 2010.

**''Set number'': '''31771'''
**''Pieces'': '''220'''
**''Kreons'': Sideswipe, [[Sideswipe's driver|Driver]]
**''Accessories'': Rifle

:''[[Kre-O]]'' Sideswipe can be built in either robot or G1-inspired car mode. His head sculpt is heavily based on [[#Universe (2008)|''Universe'' Sideswipe]]'s head design, but as a first for a Sideswipe toy with a primarily red body, the head is ''not'' colored black, but ''red'' like the ''Generation 2''-inspired BotCon 2010 customization class version's head ([[#Timelines|see above]]). He comes with two [[Kreon]]s: a Sideswipe based on the Generation 1 character and a generic driver.

:Like many other Kre-O sets, his stock photography shows a different robot mode construction than the final product. The most noticeable examples are his lower legs which have a much less awkward construction in the stock photos than the final product. Whether this is the photographer taking creative liberty or if the set design changed is unknown. The stock photography also depicts the set as including the [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Red Alert]] Kreon in place of Sideswipe.

*'''Lambor''' ([[2012]]-[[October 27|10-27]])
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MP-12'''
**''Accessories:'' Missile launcher, flare gun, two pile drivers (A), two pile drivers (B, Amazon.co.jp only)
: ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' Lambor transforms into a licensed Lamborghini Countach LP500S. As with other figures in the ''Masterpiece'' line, he is intended to be an accurate representation of his [[Character model|cartoon model]], and even features a Lamborghini-supervised paint scheme, such as glossy red [[Paint operation|paint]] covering the ''entirety'' of his vehicle mode panels and robot shoulders, as well as various bits of black detailing to make it accurate to the real-life vehicle. Standing at around 6¼ inches (or 15.5 centimetres) from head to toe in robot mode, he is also in [[scale]] with MP-10 [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#mp10|Optimus Prime]], and can fit inside [[Combat Deck (G1)#mp10|Prime's trailer]] in vehicle mode. In contrast to larger entries in this line, Lambor lacks [[die-cast]] parts, and his tires are cast in hard, non-rubberized plastic.

[[File:MP-13 Lambor full color.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.1|The Amazon version's additional <s>cake slicers</s> <s>screwdrivers</s> pile drivers.]]
: For accessories, he comes with his hand-held flare gun, and his non-firing missile launcher, which is jointed at the peg to allow it to pivot up and down, and can mount on either shoulder in robot mode. His launcher and gun can be combined and mounted on a self-covering peg-hole on his vehicle roof/robot back. He also comes with a pair of pile drivers, which can snap onto the ends of his forearms when either hand is flipped in, and are based on the blunt arm pistons he uses in "[[A Plague of Insecticons]]".

:If purchased in Japan through [[Amazon (website)|Amazon.com]], one additionally gets a different [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metalized]] pair of pile drivers, which are based on the jackhammer-like pistons he uses in "[[Dinobot Island, Part 2]]". If purchased in other Asian markets outside of Japan, a collector's coin is included instead. Both the coin and its wheel-shaped package identify him as Sideswipe instead of Lambor. In Malaysia, Lambor included both the additional Amazon.co.jp pile drivers and the coin. A reissue of the figure in September 2015 came with a different coin, coming in a package shaped like Sideswipe's chest/front hood.<ref>http://news.tfw2005.com/2015/08/24/masterpiece-lambor-hasbro-asia-reissue-collectors-coin-300240</ref>

:This mold was redecoed and retooled to make MP-14 [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Alert]]. Lambor's version of the mold, with Alert's face, was then redecoed into MP-12T [[Tigertrack#Masterpiece|Tigertrack]].

**''Japanese ID number'': '''MP-12G'''
**''Accessories'': MA68S Machine Gun, GZS-3 Grenade Launcher, Broad Sword, 2 "Spike Armor" wheels
:Like the original [[#Generation 2|''Generation 2'' Sideswipe toy]], ''Masterpiece'' Lambor G-2 Ver. features mostly a straight-up swap of his red and black plastic and paint colors, resulting in a black body with red trim. His windows have been changed from translucent black to translucent red, his helmet is painted red, and he features a new, [[Derek Yaniger|Yaniger]]-licious snarling face with separately-painted [[Teeth|pearly whites]]. He comes with a [[sticker]] sheet that duplicates the original G2 toy's deco, as well as two comic-accurate ''Generaton 2'' Autobot symbol stickers of varying sizes. While the majority of the red car parts on the original Masterpiece figure are now black, portions of the robot mode that were previously red remain red. These areas include the back of his legs as well as portions of his torso.

:Instead of his original weapons, Lambor comes with new accessories based on the weapons he wielded in the Marvel G2 comic. These include a handheld machine gun and grenade launcher, a pair of articulated, non-rolling spiked wheels that can mount on his shoulders, and a sword, all of which can combine and mount onto his roof. Sadly, he does ''not'' come with a bandolier to properly carry that sword on his back, which means the sword just kind-of loosely stows there according to the [[instructions]].

:If purchased in Asian markets outside of Japan, a recolor of MP-12 Lambor's collector's coin is included. Among other minor differences, the coin is now colored silver, and its wheel-shaped package now features a ''Generation 2'' Autobot symbol at the back in place of a Generation 1-type symbol.

His arms and feet remain a very light blue / off-white color to replicate the distinction in color his [[character model]] featured between the original toy's white plastic and vac-metallic silver parts. The Autobot symbol on his chest is larger. He now has MP-14 Alert's face in place of the original MP-12's face.

:He comes with three sets of pile drivers, the two from the original MP-12, plus the third set originally included with [[Clamp Down|''Masterpiece'' Clamp Down]], redecoed in grey, which are based on their appearance in "[[S.O.S. Dinobots]]."

:When purchased in Asian markets outside of Japan, ''yet another'' (number four for those keeping track at home) collector coin is included, cast in bright silver (as opposed to the brushed appearance of the G-2 coin), which also for the first time identifies him as "Lambor". It comes mounted on a card similar to the original MP-12 and G-2 coins, however the wheel motif is based on the actual Countach wheel design, rather than the generic spoked wheel of its predecessors.

He was revealed at the [[Star Wars (franchise)|Star Wars]] "Celebration IV" convention alongside many other ''Attacktix'' pieces that would [[unreleased toy|ultimately never see release]].

[[File:UnmadeG2SideswipeMockup.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66]]
*In recent years, a mock-up of a '''second''' ''Generation 2'' redeco of the original Sideswipe toy has surfaced. Acquired and [http://www.tf-1.com/articles/other/g2swipe_template.html photographed] by ''Transformers'' rarities-hunter Maziar "Maz" Shahsafdari, the find joins the ranks of the similarly unmade ''Generation 2'' [[Sandstorm (G2)|"desert Ramjet"]] and [http://www.tf-1.com/articles/other/g2mirage_template.html pink and green Mirage] mock-ups. [[Package art]] for the figure published in ''[[Legacy: The Art of Transformers Packaging]]'' revealed that it would have had decals of a sunrise/sunset on the vehicle mode hood and doors.
*During the 1990s, another company held the "Sideswipe" [[trademark]] in the "toys" field, even though Hasbro still released two toys using that name as part of the [[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]] line (it's unclear if this resulted in any legal repercussions for Hasbro). When Hasbro finally managed to reclaim the name for the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|''Robots in Disguise'' line]], the name was now rendered as "[[Side Swipe (RID)|Side Swipe]]", in two words, for whatever reason. The next two toys to spell "Sideswipe" as one word again were the [[OTFCC 2003]] [[exclusive]]<ref name="otfccsideswipe">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/exclusives/sideswipe/485/ OTFCC 2003 Sideswipe], named "Sideswipe" on his own packaging.</ref> and the ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' [[Side Swipe (Armada)|Super-Con]].<ref name="armadasideswipe1">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-images/toys/Armada/Autobots/Side+Swipe/side1.jpg.html ''Armada'' Side Swipe in original packaging], named "Sideswipe".</ref> However, the OTFCC figure was referred to as "Side Swipe" when featured as a [[cross-sell]] on the packaging for the OTFCC 2003 [[Shadow Striker (Universe)|Shadow Striker]]/[[Roulette (Universe)|Roulette]] two-pack,<ref name="otfccvipersisters">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/exclusives/shadow-striker/483/1/10/ Cross-sell on the OTFCC 2003 Shadow Striker/Roulette two-pack's packaging], identifying Sideswipe as "Side Swipe".</ref> whereas the "[[The Unicron Battles|Unicron Battles]]-style packaging redesign for the ''Armada'' figure saw the name changed to "Side Swipe" on the name insert as well.<ref name="armadasideswipe2">[http://www.shmax.com/product_details/835/sideswipe_with_nightbeat ''Armada'' Side Swipe in "Unicron Battles" packaging], named "Side Swipe".</ref> Hasbro ''finally'' decided to re-file the name "Sideswipe" (as one word) as a trademark in 2008, presumably because a [[Sideswipe (Movie)|character]] in the upcoming movie ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' and the accompanying [[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|toy line]] was going to sport that name, and Hasbro were using that as an opportunity to re-introduce the spelling of the name as one word. As a result, the ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'' Deluxe Class toy was the first toy to "properly" sport the name "Sideswipe" as one word. Oddly enough, in 2012, Hasbro re-filed "Side Swipe", along with several other old trademarks.<ref name="swipe2012">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-movie-toys-products-30/latest-hasbro-transformers-trademarks-tow-line-armorhide-rollbar-side-swipe-175521/ Hasbro re-files old trademarks]</ref>
*[[Fun Publications]] considered making a ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' Sideswipe (as a straight redeco of ''Combiner Wars'' Deluxe Class [[Breakdown (G1)#Generations|Breakdown]]), but ultimately shelved this idea in favor of other products.

*'''Sideswipe''' ([[Autobot Cars]], [[1984]]/[[1985]], [[1991]], [[2001]]/[[2002]]/[[2003]])
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''04''', '''TFC-07'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:Originally a ''[[Diaclone]]'' "New [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes#Lamborghini Countach|Countach LP500S]]", Sideswipe transforms into... well, into that. In [[robot mode]] he is armed with a white rifle and a missile launcher that can clip onto either of his shoulders. The launcher can fire one of three included white missiles, in theory, as the springs were weakened for the US release [[for safety reasons]]. The original 1984 US release did not have the [[rubsign]] found on later releases.

:When Hasbro released the original Generation 1 toys in continental [[Europe]] through its then recently acquired subsidiary [[Milton Bradley]] in 1985, several toys, such as the Autobot Cars, were actually pre-existing stock originally intended for [[Joustra]]'s version of the ''[[Diaclone]]'' line that was acquired by Hasbro as part of an agreement with Joustra and put into MB-branded ''Transformers'' packaging. For some reason, the Sunstreaker toy (sporting its yellow Hasbro ''Transformers'' colors due to being produced during the ''Diaclone''/''Transformers'' transitional period) was released in packaging intended for his brother Sideswipe, an entirely different sculpt. The packaging even included Sideswipe's instructions and sticker sheet, neither of which were of much use for the toy. It's currently unknown whether the actual Sideswipe toy was ever sold in MB "Sideswipe" packaging at all, although considering the origin of the MB-branded Autobot Cars, it's very unlikely for this to be the case.<ref name="mbsunswipe">[http://20thcenturytoycollector.com/mb-transformers-part-6/ "MB Transformers: Part 6"] at 20th Century Toy Collector.</ref>

:A non-transforming action figure that combines elements from both his original toy and his [[Character model|animation model]], [[Action Master]] Sideswipe is compatible with any other Action Master weapon or vehicle. His [[Action Master partner|partner]]-unit [[Vanguard]] forms a backpack and battle helmet, and complements Sideswipe's color scheme quite well.

:Action Master Sideswipe was only available in [[The Transformers (European toyline)|European]] (and certain Australian) markets.

His original rocket launcher was removed, and replaced with a large spring-loaded launcher that could be hand-held or mounted on his [[retool]]ed car mode roof.

*'''Lambor''' (World Character Convention 12 exclusive, Japan 2001)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''04'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:In 2001, the Generation 1 Sideswipe toy was re-released by [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] under his Japanese name "Lambor", as a set bundled with his [[mold]]-mate [[Red Alert (G1)/toys|Red Alert]] ("Alert" in Japan), [[exclusive]] to World Character Convention 12. His license plate decal was changed from the infringing "COUNTACH" to "CAR MACHINE".

*'''Lambor''' (e-HOBBY exclusive, Japan 2002)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''04'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:Lambor (Sideswipe) and Alert (Red Alert) were once again re-released together in January 2002 as an [[e-HOBBY]] exclusive "New Year Special" set. This version of the figure came with an alternate [[sticker]] sheet that changed the color of several of his decals: the blue stickers on his shins and stomach became red, while blue arrows on his feet were switched to yellow. He came with a new bio card with new art by [[Hidetsugu Yoshioka]].

===The Transformers Collection===

**''Accessories:'' Left & right launchers/thrusters, 2 flame missiles

:One of several [[exclusive]]s to [[OTFCC 2003]], ''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' Sideswipe is a [[redeco]] of the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|2001 ''Robots in Disguise'']] [[Prowl (RID)#Toys|Prowl]] mold, once again transforming into a Lamborghini Diablo. A pair of add-on thrusters become arm-mounted launchers for robot mode; each one being a pressure-launch missile launcher.

:The part that connects the toy's windshield to the main body uses a red [[sticker]] rather than paint, as that part is made out of [[unpaintable plastic]]. The police lights from the original mold were removed, leaving this area bare.

:This mold was also used to make ''Universe'' [[Inferno (Universe)|Inferno]] and the ''Universe'' incarnation of [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Universe (2003)|Generation 1 Sunstreaker]].

{{note|While the toy's name was spelled "Sideswipe" (one word) on its own packaging, the cross-sell on the packaging for the OTFCC 2003 [[Shadow Striker (Universe)|Shadow Striker]]/[[Roulette (Universe)|Roulette]] two-pack spelled it "Side Swipe" (two words) instead.

:''[[Smallest Transforming Transformers]]'' Lambor is a very small-scale, extensively simplified replica of the original Sideswipe toy. He has very little articulation, he has no weapons, and his vehicle mode wheels cannot roll.

===Alternators/Binaltech===
[[File:AlternatorsSide Swipe toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Just think, he was almost Tracks.]]
*'''Side Swipe''' (2003, [[2004]])
**''Alternator ID number:'' '''2'''
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''BT-02'''
**''Accessories:'' Dodge Viper Engine/gun

:The second ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' toy released, Side Swipe's [[alternate mode]] is a [[licensed vehicle alternate modes|licensed]] 1:24 scale [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes#Dodge Viper .28Chrysler.29|Dodge Viper]] (identified as an SRT-10 model by the Japanese ''Binaltech'' version) featuring opening doors, a detailed interior, and a hood that opens to reveal an engine bay holding a replica Viper V-10 engine. The vehicle mode also features movable steering and [[rubber tires]] with [[vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metalized]] wheels. His removable engine becomes a blaster.

:The main difference between Hasbro's ''Alternators'' Side Swipe and Takara's ''Binaltech'' "Lambor" releases is that the ''Binaltech'' version has die-cast metal parts for most of the car's outer body shell, with the exception of the rear end (the "backpack" [[kibble]] in robot mode), and the entire red exterior of the car is fully painted, unlike the ''Alternators'' version's flat red plastic. Furthermore, the ''Alternators'' version sports additional "blackwash" [[paint operation]]s on his chest the ''Binaltech'' version lacks.

:The Dodge Viper sculpt was originally designed to be a new body for [[Tracks (G1)/toys|Tracks]] after the first attempt to secure the Corvette license had fallen through. Eventually, though, Chevrolet had a change of mind and granted Hasbro and Takara the license for the Corvette design after all. As a result, the Viper mold was slightly redesigned, was given a new head sculpt and released as Sideswipe (or "Side Swipe") instead. This explains why, unlike most of the early Alternators toys, Side Swipe's robot mode bears little resemblance to his G1 self. The most noticeable redesign from the "Tracks" design was the vehicle mode's doors being moved from the "backpack" kibble (where they would have resembled the G1 Tracks toy's wings) to the sides of the arms, thus being the most obvious visual cue taken from the G1 Sideswipe toy. The doors are, however, still splayed out to the sides in the ''Alternators'' version's [[package art]] and can be moved to match Tracks's wing configuration, which implies that the redesign may have been done before the switch from Tracks to Sideswipe was made.

:This sculpt was [[retool]]ed to make [[Dead End (G1)#Alternators/Binaltech|Dead End]], who was then [[redeco]]ed into [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Alternators|Sunstreaker]] (although the retool was originally done with Sunstreaker in mind).

===Commemorative Series===
[[File:Sideswipebox.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb]]
*'''Side Swipe''' (Toys"R"Us exclusive, USA/Australia/Canada 2004; KB Toys exclusive, USA 2005; Asian markets exclusive, 2012)
**''Series:'' '''VIII'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:The version of Generation 1 Sideswipe previously released as part of Takara's "Transformers Collection" series, albeit with its spring-loaded launcher de-sprung [[for safety reasons]], was reissued by [[Hasbro]] under the modified name "Side Swipe" as part of their [[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]] VIII, one of the last American reissues. However, because [[Toys"R"Us]], who had carried the Commemorative Series as an [[exclusive]] line up until that point, had abruptly decided to discontinue the line, Side Swipe was only released in very low quantities in the United States; in fact, his availability at TRU was considered a myth for many years. The unsold stock was made available a year later through [[KB Toys]] stores and outlets, at half the original price. The figure ''was'', however, available at Toys"R"Us stores in Australia and Canada in 2004 in average quantities.

:In 2012, several Commemorative Series figures, among them Side Swipe, were re-released in Hasbro's Asian markets, in slightly altered packaging. Unlike most of the other figures from this batch, Side Swipe retained the "Commemorative Series VIII" label on his box; however, the background color of the "choking hazard" safety warning label was changed from red to black, the Hasbro logo was updated to the then-current version, and the "+" after the "Ages 5+" recommendation was increased in size. Oddly, even though Hasbro had started spelling the name of toys of the character as "Sideswipe" again in 2008, this release still rendered the name as "Side Swipe".

===Universe (2008)===
[[File:Universe2008 SideSwipe toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Better red than...]]
*'''Sideswipe''' (Deluxe, 2008)
**''Series'': '''Classic Series'''
**''Accessories:'' "Flare Launcher", engine supercharger intakes

:Part of the third wave of [[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|2008 ''Universe'']] Deluxe Class toys, Sideswipe is a retool/[[redeco]] of ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'' [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Universe (2008)|Sunstreaker]], transforming into a modified {{w|Lamborghini Gallardo}}. Though the car is mostly based upon the Gallardo, to avoid legal problems, it also features modified headlights and elements taken from other cars—most of them are taken from other Lamborghini models, such as a rear end that is basically a cross between a {{w|Lamborghini Murciélago|Murciélago}} and a {{w|Lamborghini Diablo|Diablo}}; however, the split side windows and the ridges on the door vents are based on a {{w|McLaren F1}}. He also comes with the same roof-mounted engine supercharger accessory as Sunstreaker. Hasbro's early plans for Sunstreaker and Sideswipe had the two as straight redecos of each other, only differing in their head sculpts besides their colors—namely, Sunstreaker would have just been Sideswipe in yellow with a different head. It was [[TakaraTomy]] designer [[Hisashi Yuki]] who suggested an alternate transformation by turning the upper body by 180 degrees (and swapping the hands to accommodate the different upper body orientation), thus providing more individual robot mode looks for the two characters that resemble their respective ''[[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1]]'' designs more.<ref name="generations2009">Interview with Hisashi Yuki in [[Transformers Generations 2009|''Transformers Generations 2009'' vol. 1]], [http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-news-rumors/223379-takaratomy-staff-interview-generations-2009-vol-1-translation.html English translation] at TFW2005.</ref>

:[[File:SunstreakerSideswipeSDCC2007.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4|''Universe'' [[Tigertrack]]. Fortunately, this didn't happen.]]
:Hasbro also originally intended the [[alternate mode]]'s supercharger to split into two halves which would then become the handgun and a spring-loaded shoulder launcher for the robot mode. On the final toy, the Flare Launcher (a redeco of Sunstreaker's Electron Pulse Blaster) can be combined with the removable supercharger engine accessory by wrapping the intakes around the gun and mounted in either of the holes on his shoulders to simulate Sideswipe's Generation 1 missile launcher. Of course, this leaves him without a hand-held weapon. The engine can also be mounted on Sideswipe's back as his [[Jet pack|rocket pack]]. Most of this is not shown in the [[instructions]], which only instruct the owner of the toy to put the gun in his hand and attach the supercharger to his back.

:Even worse, Sideswipe's instruction line art is recycled from Sunstreaker's instructions and therefore incorrectly gives him Sunstreaker's transformation and head, despite the [[stock photography|stock photo]] depicted on top of the instructions showing him with the hood as the chest and the correct Sideswipe head.<ref>[http://hasbro.com/common/instruct/83685.pdf Official Universe Sideswipe instructions PDF file on Hasbro.com]</ref> Unfortunately, the stock photo Hasbro provided to online retailers retains this incorrect transformation, and [[:File:UniSideswipeStockPhoto.jpg|throws in some additional mistakes as well]]. Oy.

:The Sunstreaker/Sideswipe sculpt was also retooled into ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' [[Punch (G1)#Timelines|Punch]], [[Breakdown (G1)#Timelines|''Generation 2'' Breakdown]], and [[Breakdown (G1)#G1TimelinesBreakdown|Generation 1 Breakdown]], as well as ''[[Henkei!

*'''Lambor''' (Deluxe, [[2008]]-[[October 23|10-23]])
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''C-09'''
**''Accessories:'' "Flare Launcher"

:The Japanese version of ''Universe'' Sideswipe has [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum metallized]] silver on his flare launcher and his spoiler, but does not come with the supercharger engine/[[Jet pack|rocket pack]] accessory that Henkei Sunstreaker and ''Universe'' Sunstreaker/Sideswipe included. This was a willful decision meant to differentiate further between him and Sunstreaker. That's right: Takara ''deliberately omitted an optional accessory'' to make the toy more "G1-accurate".<ref name="generations2009"/>

:He also has correct, personalized [[instructions]] that aren't just Sunstreaker's. Like Sunstreaker, the Japanese version's roof paint is a much closer match to the red colored plastic. The Japanese version also features a glossier black paint and the white has a yellow tint compared the white plastic used for Hasbro version. His [[license plate]] says "LAMBOR" rather than "SWIPE".

*'''Sideswipe''' ([[BotCon 2010]] customization class Deluxe)
**''Accessories'': Gun/tailpipe, engine supercharger intakes

:A ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]''-style redeco of ''Universe'' Sideswipe, ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' Sideswipe is pre-molded in new colors, which was unprecedented for the BotCon customization class exclusive (and apparently came as a surprise to [[Fun Publications]]). During the class, the mold was assembled, painted and stickered by the enrollees. Between the two classes, there were 52 participants.

:The exact brands and colors of paints utilized to paint this figure were:

:-Polly Scale #F414296 Stainless Steel (face and hub caps)
:-Polly Scale #F505020 Red RLM23 (this color is discontinued from the manufacturer)
:-Model Master Acryl #4769 Flat White (base coat under RLM 23 on hood)
:-Model Master Acryl #4768 Flat Black (tires)
:-Model Master Acryl #4721 Insignia Yellow (side markers)
:-Model Master Acryl #4637 Semi-Gloss Clear
:-Model Master Acryl #4609 British Crimson (tail lights)
:-Model Master Acryl #4746 Medium Gray (base coat under RLM 23 on upper arms, under Stainless Steel on face and hubcaps)
:-Vallejo #72023 Electric Blue (gun tip)

:In regards to the plastic mold changes, white remains white, but like the original ''Generation 2'' figure, the red and black colors are swapped. Clear green replaces the clear plastic used for the window and thighs.

:This figure uses the ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' [[Red Alert (G1)#Generations|Red Alert]] version of the mold, which includes two screw holes in the canopy (rather than one like ''Henkei! Henkei!'' Alert or none like all other versions of this mold). The samples [[Shawn D. Tessmann|Shawn Tessmann]] had on display used the original version of the mold, and lacked the screw holes. Despite the mold change, the lightbar was not included. These holes replace the slots used to mount the rocket pack in robot mode. The rocket pack can still be mounted on the gun in robot mode and in car mode though. As an unintended result of having empty screw holes over the rocket pack sockets, Sideswipe can now mount his gun inside either screw hole on the roof of his car mode.

:The unassembled figure was also given out to those who volunteered at BotCon 2010.

**''Pieces'': '''220'''
**''Kreons'': Sideswipe, [[Sideswipe's driver|Driver]]
**''Accessories'': Rifle

:''[[Kre-O]]'' Sideswipe can be built in either robot or G1-inspired car mode. His head sculpt is heavily based on [[#Universe (2008)|''Universe'' Sideswipe]]'s head design, but as a first for a Sideswipe toy with a primarily red body, the head is ''not'' colored black, but ''red'' like the ''Generation 2''-inspired BotCon 2010 customization class version's head ([[#Timelines|see above]]). He comes with two [[Kreon]]s: a Sideswipe based on the Generation 1 character and a generic driver.

:Like many other Kre-O sets, his stock photography shows a different robot mode construction than the final product. The most noticeable examples are his lower legs which have a much less awkward construction in the stock photos than the final product. Whether this is the photographer taking creative liberty or if the set design changed is unknown. The stock photography also depicts the set as including the [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Red Alert]] Kreon in place of Sideswipe.

[[File:Masterpiece-MP12Lambor.jpg|thumb|upright=2.2|Lamborghini-approved awesomeness!]]
*'''Lambor''' ([[2012]]-[[October 27|10-27]])
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MP-12'''
**''Accessories:'' Missile launcher, flare gun, two pile drivers (A), two pile drivers (B, Amazon.co.jp only)
: ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' Lambor transforms into a licensed Lamborghini Countach LP500S. As with other figures in the ''Masterpiece'' line, he is intended to be an accurate representation of his [[Character model|cartoon model]], and even features a Lamborghini-supervised paint scheme, such as glossy red [[Paint operation|paint]] covering the ''entirety'' of his vehicle mode panels and robot shoulders, as well as various bits of black detailing to make it accurate to the real-life vehicle. Standing at around 6¼ inches (or 15.5 centimetres) from head to toe in robot mode, he is also in [[scale]] with MP-10 [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#mp10|Optimus Prime]], and can fit inside [[Combat Deck (G1)#mp10|Prime's trailer]] in vehicle mode. In contrast to larger entries in this line, Lambor lacks [[die-cast]] parts, and his tires are cast in hard, non-rubberized plastic.

[[File:MP-13 Lambor full color.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.1|The Amazon version's additional <s>cake slicers</s> <s>screwdrivers</s> pile drivers.]]
: For accessories, he comes with his hand-held flare gun, and his non-firing missile launcher, which is jointed at the peg to allow it to pivot up and down, and can mount on either shoulder in robot mode. His launcher and gun can be combined and mounted on a self-covering peg-hole on his vehicle roof/robot back. He also comes with a pair of pile drivers, which can snap onto the ends of his forearms when either hand is flipped in, and are based on the blunt arm pistons he uses in "[[A Plague of Insecticons]]".

:If purchased in Japan through [[Amazon (website)|Amazon.com]], one additionally gets a different [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metalized]] pair of pile drivers, which are based on the jackhammer-like pistons he uses in "[[Dinobot Island, Part 2]]". If purchased in other Asian markets outside of Japan, a collector's coin is included instead. Both the coin and its wheel-shaped package identify him as Sideswipe instead of Lambor. In Malaysia, Lambor included both the additional Amazon.co.jp pile drivers and the coin. A reissue of the figure in September 2015 came with a different coin, coming in a package shaped like Sideswipe's chest/front hood.<ref>http://news.tfw2005.com/2015/08/24/masterpiece-lambor-hasbro-asia-reissue-collectors-coin-300240</ref>

:This mold was redecoed and retooled to make MP-14 [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Alert]]. Lambor's version of the mold, with Alert's face, was then redecoed into MP-12T [[Tigertrack#Masterpiece|Tigertrack]].

**''Japanese ID number'': '''MP-12G'''
**''Accessories'': MA68S Machine Gun, GZS-3 Grenade Launcher, Broad Sword, 2 "Spike Armor" wheels
:Like the original [[#Generation 2|''Generation 2'' Sideswipe toy]], ''Masterpiece'' Lambor G-2 Ver. features mostly a straight-up swap of his red and black plastic and paint colors, resulting in a black body with red trim. His windows have been changed from translucent black to translucent red, his helmet is painted red, and he features a new, [[Derek Yaniger|Yaniger]]-licious snarling face with separately-painted [[Teeth|pearly whites]]. He comes with a [[sticker]] sheet that duplicates the original G2 toy's deco, as well as two comic-accurate ''Generaton 2'' Autobot symbol stickers of varying sizes. While the majority of the red car parts on the original Masterpiece figure are now black, portions of the robot mode that were previously red remain red. These areas include the back of his legs as well as portions of his torso.

:Instead of his original weapons, Lambor comes with new accessories based on the weapons he wielded in the Marvel G2 comic. These include a handheld machine gun and grenade launcher, a pair of articulated, non-rolling spiked wheels that can mount on his shoulders, and a sword, all of which can combine and mount onto his roof. Sadly, he does ''not'' come with a bandolier to properly carry that sword on his back, which means the sword just kind-of loosely stows there according to the [[instructions]].

:If purchased in Asian markets outside of Japan, a recolor of MP-12 Lambor's collector's coin is included. Among other minor differences, the coin is now colored silver, and its wheel-shaped package now features a ''Generation 2'' Autobot symbol at the back in place of a Generation 1-type symbol.

:Issued to coincide with the release of ''Masterpiece'' [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Sunstreaker]] and continuing the Masterpiece+ sideline, started with ''Masterpiece'' [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#MasterpieceAnimeColor|Alert Anime Color Edition]], Lambor Anime Color Edition is a redeco and retool of Lambor in more anime accurate colors—including bright white paint on the thighs and the ridges by his head. His arms and feet remain a very light blue / off-white color to replicate the distinction in color his [[character model]] featured between the original toy's white plastic and vac-metallic silver parts. The Autobot symbol on his chest is larger. He now has MP-14 Alert's face in place of the original MP-12's face.

:He comes with three sets of pile drivers, the two from the original MP-12, plus the third set originally included with [[Clamp Down|''Masterpiece'' Clamp Down]], redecoed in grey, which are based on their appearance in "[[S.O.S. Dinobots]]."

:When purchased in Asian markets outside of Japan, ''yet another'' (number four for those keeping track at home) collector coin is included, cast in bright silver (as opposed to the brushed appearance of the G-2 coin), which also for the first time identifies him as "Lambor". It comes mounted on a card similar to the original MP-12 and G-2 coins, however the wheel motif is based on the actual Countach wheel design, rather than the generic spoked wheel of its predecessors. Like the coin itself, the card identifies him as "Lambor."<ref>http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/the-masterpiece-cards-coins-thread.819496/page-24#post-15270213</ref>

He can convert from robot to a car in 8 steps. He has a chunkier design and is intended for a younger audience, but despite that he has an excellent range of poseability.

:Part of the first wave of ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege (toyline)|War for Cybertron: Siege]]'' Deluxe Class figures, Sideswipe transforms from robot to Cybertronian car and back. He includes two weapons compatible with the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]]—the "W-10 Photo-Pulser Proton Launcher", and the "W-5 Gyro Blaster". Both weapons can combine to form the "RR Gyrofuse Axleswitch Hyper-Blaster." Sideswipe also features "battle damage" paint applications on his waist, shins, and feet, as well as multiple hardpoints all over himself and his weapons to accommodate "Fire Blasts" from the [[Battle Master]]s assortment, which can be used to simulate blaster fire or explosions.

:The detacheable tip of Sideswipe's Proton Launcher was later used for ''War for Cybertron: Siege'' Sixgun's back-mounted weapons.

==Notes==
[[File:UnmadeG2SideswipeMockup.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66]]
*In recent years, a mock-up of a '''second''' ''Generation 2'' redeco of the original Sideswipe toy has surfaced. Acquired and [http://www.tf-1.com/articles/other/g2swipe_template.html photographed] by ''Transformers'' rarities-hunter Maziar "Maz" Shahsafdari, the find joins the ranks of the similarly unmade ''Generation 2'' [[Sandstorm (G2)|"desert Ramjet"]] and [http://www.tf-1.com/articles/other/g2mirage_template.html pink and green Mirage] mock-ups. [[Package art]] for the figure published in ''[[Legacy: The Art of Transformers Packaging]]'' revealed that it would have had decals of a sunrise/sunset on the vehicle mode hood and doors.
*During the 1990s, another company held the "Sideswipe" [[trademark]] in the "toys" field, even though Hasbro still released two toys using that name as part of the [[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]] line (it's unclear if this resulted in any legal repercussions for Hasbro). When Hasbro finally managed to reclaim the name for the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|''Robots in Disguise'' line]], the name was now rendered as "[[Side Swipe (RID)|Side Swipe]]", in two words, for whatever reason. The next two toys to spell "Sideswipe" as one word again were the [[OTFCC 2003]] [[exclusive]]<ref name="otfccsideswipe">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/exclusives/sideswipe/485/ OTFCC 2003 Sideswipe], named "Sideswipe" on his own packaging.</ref> and the ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' [[Side Swipe (Armada)|Super-Con]].<ref name="armadasideswipe1">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-images/toys/Armada/Autobots/Side+Swipe/side1.jpg.html ''Armada'' Side Swipe in original packaging], named "Sideswipe".</ref> However, the OTFCC figure was referred to as "Side Swipe" when featured as a [[cross-sell]] on the packaging for the OTFCC 2003 [[Shadow Striker (Universe)|Shadow Striker]]/[[Roulette (Universe)|Roulette]] two-pack,<ref name="otfccvipersisters">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/exclusives/shadow-striker/483/1/10/ Cross-sell on the OTFCC 2003 Shadow Striker/Roulette two-pack's packaging], identifying Sideswipe as "Side Swipe".</ref> whereas the "[[The Unicron Battles|Unicron Battles]]-style packaging redesign for the ''Armada'' figure saw the name changed to "Side Swipe" on the name insert as well.<ref name="armadasideswipe2">[http://www.shmax.com/product_details/835/sideswipe_with_nightbeat ''Armada'' Side Swipe in "Unicron Battles" packaging], named "Side Swipe".</ref> Hasbro ''finally'' decided to re-file the name "Sideswipe" (as one word) as a trademark in 2008, presumably because a [[Sideswipe (Movie)|character]] in the upcoming movie ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' and the accompanying [[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|toy line]] was going to sport that name, and Hasbro were using that as an opportunity to re-introduce the spelling of the name as one word. As a result, the ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'' Deluxe Class toy was the first toy to "properly" sport the name "Sideswipe" as one word. Oddly enough, in 2012, Hasbro re-filed "Side Swipe", along with several other old trademarks.<ref name="swipe2012">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-movie-toys-products-30/latest-hasbro-transformers-trademarks-tow-line-armorhide-rollbar-side-swipe-175521/ Hasbro re-files old trademarks]</ref>
*[[Fun Publications]] considered making a ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' Sideswipe (as a straight redeco of ''Combiner Wars'' Deluxe Class [[Breakdown (G1)#Generations|Breakdown]]), but ultimately shelved this idea in favor of other products.

:Originally a ''[[Diaclone]]'' "New [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes#Lamborghini Countach|Countach LP500S]]", Sideswipe transforms into... well, into that. In [[robot mode]] he is armed with a white rifle and a missile launcher that can clip onto either of his shoulders. The launcher can fire one of three included white missiles, in theory, as the springs were weakened for the US release [[for safety reasons]]. The original 1984 US release did not have the [[rubsign]] found on later releases.

:When Hasbro released the original Generation 1 toys in continental [[Europe]] through its then recently acquired subsidiary [[Milton Bradley]] in 1985, several toys, such as the Autobot Cars, were actually pre-existing stock originally intended for [[Joustra]]'s version of the ''[[Diaclone]]'' line that was acquired by Hasbro as part of an agreement with Joustra and put into MB-branded ''Transformers'' packaging. For some reason, the Sunstreaker toy (sporting its yellow Hasbro ''Transformers'' colors due to being produced during the ''Diaclone''/''Transformers'' transitional period) was released in packaging intended for his brother Sideswipe, an entirely different sculpt. The packaging even included Sideswipe's instructions and sticker sheet, neither of which were of much use for the toy. It's currently unknown whether the actual Sideswipe toy was ever sold in MB "Sideswipe" packaging at all, although considering the origin of the MB-branded Autobot Cars, it's very unlikely for this to be the case.<ref name="mbsunswipe">[http://20thcenturytoycollector.com/mb-transformers-part-6/ "MB Transformers: Part 6"] at 20th Century Toy Collector.</ref>

[[File:AlternatorsSide Swipe toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Just think, he was almost Tracks.]]
*'''Side Swipe''' (2003, [[2004]])
**''Alternator ID number:'' '''2'''
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''BT-02'''
**''Accessories:'' Dodge Viper Engine/gun

:The second ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' toy released, Side Swipe's [[alternate mode]] is a [[licensed vehicle alternate modes|licensed]] 1:24 scale [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes#Dodge Viper .28Chrysler.29|Dodge Viper]] (identified as an SRT-10 model by the Japanese ''Binaltech'' version) featuring opening doors, a detailed interior, and a hood that opens to reveal an engine bay holding a replica Viper V-10 engine. The vehicle mode also features movable steering and [[rubber tires]] with [[vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metalized]] wheels. His removable engine becomes a blaster.

:The main difference between Hasbro's ''Alternators'' Side Swipe and Takara's ''Binaltech'' "Lambor" releases is that the ''Binaltech'' version has die-cast metal parts for most of the car's outer body shell, with the exception of the rear end (the "backpack" [[kibble]] in robot mode), and the entire red exterior of the car is fully painted, unlike the ''Alternators'' version's flat red plastic. Furthermore, the ''Alternators'' version sports additional "blackwash" [[paint operation]]s on his chest the ''Binaltech'' version lacks.

:The Dodge Viper sculpt was originally designed to be a new body for [[Tracks (G1)/toys|Tracks]] after the first attempt to secure the Corvette license had fallen through. Eventually, though, Chevrolet had a change of mind and granted Hasbro and Takara the license for the Corvette design after all. As a result, the Viper mold was slightly redesigned, was given a new head sculpt and released as Sideswipe (or "Side Swipe") instead. This explains why, unlike most of the early Alternators toys, Side Swipe's robot mode bears little resemblance to his G1 self. The most noticeable redesign from the "Tracks" design was the vehicle mode's doors being moved from the "backpack" kibble (where they would have resembled the G1 Tracks toy's wings) to the sides of the arms, thus being the most obvious visual cue taken from the G1 Sideswipe toy. The doors are, however, still splayed out to the sides in the ''Alternators'' version's [[package art]] and can be moved to match Tracks's wing configuration, which implies that the redesign may have been done before the switch from Tracks to Sideswipe was made.

:This sculpt was [[retool]]ed to make [[Dead End (G1)#Alternators/Binaltech|Dead End]], who was then [[redeco]]ed into [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Alternators|Sunstreaker]] (although the retool was originally done with Sunstreaker in mind).

===Commemorative Series===
[[File:Sideswipebox.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb]]
*'''Side Swipe''' (Toys"R"Us exclusive, USA/Australia/Canada 2004; KB Toys exclusive, USA 2005; Asian markets exclusive, 2012)
**''Series:'' '''VIII'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:The version of Generation 1 Sideswipe previously released as part of Takara's "Transformers Collection" series, albeit with its spring-loaded launcher de-sprung [[for safety reasons]], was reissued by [[Hasbro]] under the modified name "Side Swipe" as part of their [[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]] VIII, one of the last American reissues. However, because [[Toys"R"Us]], who had carried the Commemorative Series as an [[exclusive]] line up until that point, had abruptly decided to discontinue the line, Side Swipe was only released in very low quantities in the United States; in fact, his availability at TRU was considered a myth for many years. The unsold stock was made available a year later through [[KB Toys]] stores and outlets, at half the original price. The figure ''was'', however, available at Toys"R"Us stores in Australia and Canada in 2004 in average quantities.

:In 2012, several Commemorative Series figures, among them Side Swipe, were re-released in Hasbro's Asian markets, in slightly altered packaging. Unlike most of the other figures from this batch, Side Swipe retained the "Commemorative Series VIII" label on his box; however, the background color of the "choking hazard" safety warning label was changed from red to black, the Hasbro logo was updated to the then-current version, and the "+" after the "Ages 5+" recommendation was increased in size. Oddly, even though Hasbro had started spelling the name of toys of the character as "Sideswipe" again in 2008, this release still rendered the name as "Side Swipe".

===Universe (2008)===
[[File:Universe2008 SideSwipe toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Better red than...]]
*'''Sideswipe''' (Deluxe, 2008)
**''Series'': '''Classic Series'''
**''Accessories:'' "Flare Launcher", engine supercharger intakes

:Part of the third wave of [[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|2008 ''Universe'']] Deluxe Class toys, Sideswipe is a retool/[[redeco]] of ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'' [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Universe (2008)|Sunstreaker]], transforming into a modified {{w|Lamborghini Gallardo}}. Though the car is mostly based upon the Gallardo, to avoid legal problems, it also features modified headlights and elements taken from other cars—most of them are taken from other Lamborghini models, such as a rear end that is basically a cross between a {{w|Lamborghini Murciélago|Murciélago}} and a {{w|Lamborghini Diablo|Diablo}}; however, the split side windows and the ridges on the door vents are based on a {{w|McLaren F1}}. He also comes with the same roof-mounted engine supercharger accessory as Sunstreaker. Hasbro's early plans for Sunstreaker and Sideswipe had the two as straight redecos of each other, only differing in their head sculpts besides their colors—namely, Sunstreaker would have just been Sideswipe in yellow with a different head. It was [[TakaraTomy]] designer [[Hisashi Yuki]] who suggested an alternate transformation by turning the upper body by 180 degrees (and swapping the hands to accommodate the different upper body orientation), thus providing more individual robot mode looks for the two characters that resemble their respective ''[[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1]]'' designs more.<ref name="generations2009">Interview with Hisashi Yuki in [[Transformers Generations 2009|''Transformers Generations 2009'' vol. 1]], [http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-news-rumors/223379-takaratomy-staff-interview-generations-2009-vol-1-translation.html English translation] at TFW2005.</ref>

:[[File:SunstreakerSideswipeSDCC2007.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4|''Universe'' [[Tigertrack]]. Fortunately, this didn't happen.]]
:Hasbro also originally intended the [[alternate mode]]'s supercharger to split into two halves which would then become the handgun and a spring-loaded shoulder launcher for the robot mode. On the final toy, the Flare Launcher (a redeco of Sunstreaker's Electron Pulse Blaster) can be combined with the removable supercharger engine accessory by wrapping the intakes around the gun and mounted in either of the holes on his shoulders to simulate Sideswipe's Generation 1 missile launcher. Of course, this leaves him without a hand-held weapon. The engine can also be mounted on Sideswipe's back as his [[Jet pack|rocket pack]]. Most of this is not shown in the [[instructions]], which only instruct the owner of the toy to put the gun in his hand and attach the supercharger to his back.

:Even worse, Sideswipe's instruction line art is recycled from Sunstreaker's instructions and therefore incorrectly gives him Sunstreaker's transformation and head, despite the [[stock photography|stock photo]] depicted on top of the instructions showing him with the hood as the chest and the correct Sideswipe head.<ref>[http://hasbro.com/common/instruct/83685.pdf Official Universe Sideswipe instructions PDF file on Hasbro.com]</ref> Unfortunately, the stock photo Hasbro provided to online retailers retains this incorrect transformation, and [[:File:UniSideswipeStockPhoto.jpg|throws in some additional mistakes as well]]. Oy.

:The Sunstreaker/Sideswipe sculpt was also retooled into ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' [[Punch (G1)#Timelines|Punch]], [[Breakdown (G1)#Timelines|''Generation 2'' Breakdown]], and [[Breakdown (G1)#G1TimelinesBreakdown|Generation 1 Breakdown]], as well as ''[[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (toyline)|Henkei! Henkei!]]'' [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Henkei! Henkei!|Alert]] and ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Generations|Red Alert]].

*'''Lambor''' (Deluxe, [[2008]]-[[October 23|10-23]])
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''C-09'''
**''Accessories:'' "Flare Launcher"

:The Japanese version of ''Universe'' Sideswipe has [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum metallized]] silver on his flare launcher and his spoiler, but does not come with the supercharger engine/[[Jet pack|rocket pack]] accessory that Henkei Sunstreaker and ''Universe'' Sunstreaker/Sideswipe included. This was a willful decision meant to differentiate further between him and Sunstreaker. That's right: Takara ''deliberately omitted an optional accessory'' to make the toy more "G1-accurate".<ref name="generations2009"/>

:He also has correct, personalized [[instructions]] that aren't just Sunstreaker's. Like Sunstreaker, the Japanese version's roof paint is a much closer match to the red colored plastic. The Japanese version also features a glossier black paint and the white has a yellow tint compared the white plastic used for Hasbro version. His [[license plate]] says "LAMBOR" rather than "SWIPE".

*'''Sideswipe''' ([[BotCon 2010]] customization class Deluxe)
**''Accessories'': Gun/tailpipe, engine supercharger intakes

:A ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]''-style redeco of ''Universe'' Sideswipe, ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' Sideswipe is pre-molded in new colors, which was unprecedented for the BotCon customization class exclusive (and apparently came as a surprise to [[Fun Publications]]). During the class, the mold was assembled, painted and stickered by the enrollees. Between the two classes, there were 52 participants.

:The exact brands and colors of paints utilized to paint this figure were:

:-Polly Scale #F414296 Stainless Steel (face and hub caps)
:-Polly Scale #F505020 Red RLM23 (this color is discontinued from the manufacturer)
:-Model Master Acryl #4769 Flat White (base coat under RLM 23 on hood)
:-Model Master Acryl #4768 Flat Black (tires)
:-Model Master Acryl #4721 Insignia Yellow (side markers)
:-Model Master Acryl #4637 Semi-Gloss Clear
:-Model Master Acryl #4609 British Crimson (tail lights)
:-Model Master Acryl #4746 Medium Gray (base coat under RLM 23 on upper arms, under Stainless Steel on face and hubcaps)
:-Vallejo #72023 Electric Blue (gun tip)

:In regards to the plastic mold changes, white remains white, but like the original ''Generation 2'' figure, the red and black colors are swapped. Clear green replaces the clear plastic used for the window and thighs.

:This figure uses the ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' [[Red Alert (G1)#Generations|Red Alert]] version of the mold, which includes two screw holes in the canopy (rather than one like ''Henkei! Henkei!'' Alert or none like all other versions of this mold). The samples [[Shawn D. Tessmann|Shawn Tessmann]] had on display used the original version of the mold, and lacked the screw holes. Despite the mold change, the lightbar was not included. These holes replace the slots used to mount the rocket pack in robot mode. The rocket pack can still be mounted on the gun in robot mode and in car mode though. As an unintended result of having empty screw holes over the rocket pack sockets, Sideswipe can now mount his gun inside either screw hole on the roof of his car mode.

:The unassembled figure was also given out to those who volunteered at BotCon 2010.

**''Set number'': '''31771'''
**''Pieces'': '''220'''
**''Kreons'': Sideswipe, [[Sideswipe's driver|Driver]]
**''Accessories'': Rifle

:''[[Kre-O]]'' Sideswipe can be built in either robot or G1-inspired car mode. His head sculpt is heavily based on [[#Universe (2008)|''Universe'' Sideswipe]]'s head design, but as a first for a Sideswipe toy with a primarily red body, the head is ''not'' colored black, but ''red'' like the ''Generation 2''-inspired BotCon 2010 customization class version's head ([[#Timelines|see above]]). He comes with two [[Kreon]]s: a Sideswipe based on the Generation 1 character and a generic driver.

:Like many other Kre-O sets, his stock photography shows a different robot mode construction than the final product. The most noticeable examples are his lower legs which have a much less awkward construction in the stock photos than the final product. Whether this is the photographer taking creative liberty or if the set design changed is unknown. The stock photography also depicts the set as including the [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Red Alert]] Kreon in place of Sideswipe.

[[File:Masterpiece-MP12Lambor.jpg|thumb|upright=2.2|Lamborghini-approved awesomeness!]]
*'''Lambor''' ([[2012]]-[[October 27|10-27]])
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MP-12'''
**''Accessories:'' Missile launcher, flare gun, two pile drivers (A), two pile drivers (B, Amazon.co.jp only)
: ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' Lambor transforms into a licensed Lamborghini Countach LP500S. As with other figures in the ''Masterpiece'' line, he is intended to be an accurate representation of his [[Character model|cartoon model]], and even features a Lamborghini-supervised paint scheme, such as glossy red [[Paint operation|paint]] covering the ''entirety'' of his vehicle mode panels and robot shoulders, as well as various bits of black detailing to make it accurate to the real-life vehicle. Standing at around 6¼ inches (or 15.5 centimetres) from head to toe in robot mode, he is also in [[scale]] with MP-10 [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#mp10|Optimus Prime]], and can fit inside [[Combat Deck (G1)#mp10|Prime's trailer]] in vehicle mode. In contrast to larger entries in this line, Lambor lacks [[die-cast]] parts, and his tires are cast in hard, non-rubberized plastic.

[[File:MP-13 Lambor full color.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.1|The Amazon version's additional <s>cake slicers</s> <s>screwdrivers</s> pile drivers.]]
: For accessories, he comes with his hand-held flare gun, and his non-firing missile launcher, which is jointed at the peg to allow it to pivot up and down, and can mount on either shoulder in robot mode. His launcher and gun can be combined and mounted on a self-covering peg-hole on his vehicle roof/robot back. He also comes with a pair of pile drivers, which can snap onto the ends of his forearms when either hand is flipped in, and are based on the blunt arm pistons he uses in "[[A Plague of Insecticons]]".

:If purchased in Japan through [[Amazon (website)|Amazon.com]], one additionally gets a different [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metalized]] pair of pile drivers, which are based on the jackhammer-like pistons he uses in "[[Dinobot Island, Part 2]]". If purchased in other Asian markets outside of Japan, a collector's coin is included instead. Both the coin and its wheel-shaped package identify him as Sideswipe instead of Lambor. In Malaysia, Lambor included both the additional Amazon.co.jp pile drivers and the coin. A reissue of the figure in September 2015 came with a different coin, coming in a package shaped like Sideswipe's chest/front hood.<ref>http://news.tfw2005.com/2015/08/24/masterpiece-lambor-hasbro-asia-reissue-collectors-coin-300240</ref>

:This mold was redecoed and retooled to make MP-14 [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Alert]]. Lambor's version of the mold, with Alert's face, was then redecoed into MP-12T [[Tigertrack#Masterpiece|Tigertrack]].

**''Japanese ID number'': '''MP-12G'''
**''Accessories'': MA68S Machine Gun, GZS-3 Grenade Launcher, Broad Sword, 2 "Spike Armor" wheels
:Like the original [[#Generation 2|''Generation 2'' Sideswipe toy]], ''Masterpiece'' Lambor G-2 Ver. features mostly a straight-up swap of his red and black plastic and paint colors, resulting in a black body with red trim. His windows have been changed from translucent black to translucent red, his helmet is painted red, and he features a new, [[Derek Yaniger|Yaniger]]-licious snarling face with separately-painted [[Teeth|pearly whites]]. He comes with a [[sticker]] sheet that duplicates the original G2 toy's deco, as well as two comic-accurate ''Generaton 2'' Autobot symbol stickers of varying sizes. While the majority of the red car parts on the original Masterpiece figure are now black, portions of the robot mode that were previously red remain red. These areas include the back of his legs as well as portions of his torso.

:Instead of his original weapons, Lambor comes with new accessories based on the weapons he wielded in the Marvel G2 comic. These include a handheld machine gun and grenade launcher, a pair of articulated, non-rolling spiked wheels that can mount on his shoulders, and a sword, all of which can combine and mount onto his roof. Sadly, he does ''not'' come with a bandolier to properly carry that sword on his back, which means the sword just kind-of loosely stows there according to the [[instructions]].

:If purchased in Asian markets outside of Japan, a recolor of MP-12 Lambor's collector's coin is included. Among other minor differences, the coin is now colored silver, and its wheel-shaped package now features a ''Generation 2'' Autobot symbol at the back in place of a Generation 1-type symbol.

His arms and feet remain a very light blue / off-white color to replicate the distinction in color his [[character model]] featured between the original toy's white plastic and vac-metallic silver parts. The Autobot symbol on his chest is larger. He now has MP-14 Alert's face in place of the original MP-12's face.

:He comes with three sets of pile drivers, the two from the original MP-12, plus the third set originally included with [[Clamp Down|''Masterpiece'' Clamp Down]], redecoed in grey, which are based on their appearance in "[[S.O.S. Dinobots]]."

:When purchased in Asian markets outside of Japan, ''yet another'' (number four for those keeping track at home) collector coin is included, cast in bright silver (as opposed to the brushed appearance of the G-2 coin), which also for the first time identifies him as "Lambor". It comes mounted on a card similar to the original MP-12 and G-2 coins, however the wheel motif is based on the actual Countach wheel design, rather than the generic spoked wheel of its predecessors. Like the coin itself, the card identifies him as "Lambor."<ref>http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/the-masterpiece-cards-coins-thread.819496/page-24#post-15270213</ref>

[[Package art]] for the figure published in ''[[Legacy: The Art of Transformers Packaging]]'' revealed that it would have had decals of a sunrise/sunset on the vehicle mode hood and doors.
*During the 1990s, another company held the "Sideswipe" [[trademark]] in the "toys" field, even though Hasbro still released two toys using that name as part of the [[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]] line (it's unclear if this resulted in any legal repercussions for Hasbro). When Hasbro finally managed to reclaim the name for the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|''Robots in Disguise'' line]], the name was now rendered as "[[Side Swipe (RID)|Side Swipe]]", in two words, for whatever reason. The next two toys to spell "Sideswipe" as one word again were the [[OTFCC 2003]] [[exclusive]]<ref name="otfccsideswipe">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/exclusives/sideswipe/485/ OTFCC 2003 Sideswipe], named "Sideswipe" on his own packaging.</ref> and the ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' [[Side Swipe (Armada)|Super-Con]].<ref name="armadasideswipe1">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-images/toys/Armada/Autobots/Side+Swipe/side1.jpg.html ''Armada'' Side Swipe in original packaging], named "Sideswipe".</ref> However, the OTFCC figure was referred to as "Side Swipe" when featured as a [[cross-sell]] on the packaging for the OTFCC 2003 [[Shadow Striker (Universe)|Shadow Striker]]/[[Roulette (Universe)|Roulette]] two-pack,<ref name="otfccvipersisters">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/exclusives/shadow-striker/483/1/10/ Cross-sell on the OTFCC 2003 Shadow Striker/Roulette two-pack's packaging], identifying Sideswipe as "Side Swipe".</ref> whereas the "[[The Unicron Battles|Unicron Battles]]-style packaging redesign for the ''Armada'' figure saw the name changed to "Side Swipe" on the name insert as well.<ref name="armadasideswipe2">[http://www.shmax.com/product_details/835/sideswipe_with_nightbeat ''Armada'' Side Swipe in "Unicron Battles" packaging], named "Side Swipe".</ref> Hasbro ''finally'' decided to re-file the name "Sideswipe" (as one word) as a trademark in 2008, presumably because a [[Sideswipe (Movie)|character]] in the upcoming movie ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' and the accompanying [[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|toy line]] was going to sport that name, and Hasbro were using that as an opportunity to re-introduce the spelling of the name as one word. As a result, the ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'' Deluxe Class toy was the first toy to "properly" sport the name "Sideswipe" as one word. Oddly enough, in 2012, Hasbro re-filed "Side Swipe", along with several other old trademarks.<ref name="swipe2012">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-movie-toys-products-30/latest-hasbro-transformers-trademarks-tow-line-armorhide-rollbar-side-swipe-175521/ Hasbro re-files old trademarks]</ref>
*[[Fun Publications]] considered making a ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' Sideswipe (as a straight redeco of ''Combiner Wars'' Deluxe Class [[Breakdown (G1)#Generations|Breakdown]]), but ultimately shelved this idea in favor of other products.

*'''Sideswipe''' ([[Autobot Cars]], [[1984]]/[[1985]], [[1991]], [[2001]]/[[2002]]/[[2003]])
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''04''', '''TFC-07'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:Originally a ''[[Diaclone]]'' "New [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes#Lamborghini Countach|Countach LP500S]]", Sideswipe transforms into... well, into that. In [[robot mode]] he is armed with a white rifle and a missile launcher that can clip onto either of his shoulders. The launcher can fire one of three included white missiles, in theory, as the springs were weakened for the US release [[for safety reasons]]. The original 1984 US release did not have the [[rubsign]] found on later releases.

:When Hasbro released the original Generation 1 toys in continental [[Europe]] through its then recently acquired subsidiary [[Milton Bradley]] in 1985, several toys, such as the Autobot Cars, were actually pre-existing stock originally intended for [[Joustra]]'s version of the ''[[Diaclone]]'' line that was acquired by Hasbro as part of an agreement with Joustra and put into MB-branded ''Transformers'' packaging. For some reason, the Sunstreaker toy (sporting its yellow Hasbro ''Transformers'' colors due to being produced during the ''Diaclone''/''Transformers'' transitional period) was released in packaging intended for his brother Sideswipe, an entirely different sculpt. The packaging even included Sideswipe's instructions and sticker sheet, neither of which were of much use for the toy. It's currently unknown whether the actual Sideswipe toy was ever sold in MB "Sideswipe" packaging at all, although considering the origin of the MB-branded Autobot Cars, it's very unlikely for this to be the case.<ref name="mbsunswipe">[http://20thcenturytoycollector.com/mb-transformers-part-6/ "MB Transformers: Part 6"] at 20th Century Toy Collector.</ref>

:This sculpt was also used to make [[Red Alert (G1)/toys|Red Alert]], [[Clamp Down]], [[Deep Cover]] and [[Tigertrack]].

**''Accessories:'' "Photon laser" rifle

:A non-transforming action figure that combines elements from both his original toy and his [[Character model|animation model]], [[Action Master]] Sideswipe is compatible with any other Action Master weapon or vehicle. His [[Action Master partner|partner]]-unit [[Vanguard]] forms a backpack and battle helmet, and complements Sideswipe's color scheme quite well.

:Action Master Sideswipe was only available in [[The Transformers (European toyline)|European]] (and certain Australian) markets.

:Part of the first assortment of Autobot cars, Sideswipe's original toy had his colors re-arranged to a black car mode with red and white robot parts, plus new [[neon]] green "racing" decals were added to the mix. His original rocket launcher was removed, and replaced with a large spring-loaded launcher that could be hand-held or mounted on his [[retool]]ed car mode roof.

:His new spring-loaded missile launcher was taken from [http://www.yojoe.com/action/91/snowserpent2.shtml Snow Serpent] from the ''[[G.I. Joe (team)|G.I. Joe]]'' toyline.

He is compatible with many "Hot Wheels" and "Matchbox"-brand racetrack sets.

===Collector's Edition===
*'''Lambor''' (World Character Convention 12 exclusive, Japan 2001)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''04'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:In 2001, the Generation 1 Sideswipe toy was re-released by [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] under his Japanese name "Lambor", as a set bundled with his [[mold]]-mate [[Red Alert (G1)/toys|Red Alert]] ("Alert" in Japan), [[exclusive]] to World Character Convention 12. His license plate decal was changed from the infringing "COUNTACH" to "CAR MACHINE".

{{anchor|NewYearSpecial}}
*'''Lambor''' (e-HOBBY exclusive, Japan 2002)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''04'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:Lambor (Sideswipe) and Alert (Red Alert) were once again re-released together in January 2002 as an [[e-HOBBY]] exclusive "New Year Special" set. This version of the figure came with an alternate [[sticker]] sheet that changed the color of several of his decals: the blue stickers on his shins and stomach became red, while blue arrows on his feet were switched to yellow. He came with a new bio card with new art by [[Hidetsugu Yoshioka]].

===The Transformers Collection===
*'''Lambor''' (Japan 2003)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''07'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:The version of Generation 1 Sideswipe previously released as an e-HOBBY exclusive, minus the extra decal sheet, was ''again'' re-released as part of ''[[The Transformers Collection]]'' "book-box" series.

*'''Sideswipe''' (Deluxe, 2003)
**''Accessories:'' Left & right launchers/thrusters, 2 flame missiles

:One of several [[exclusive]]s to [[OTFCC 2003]], ''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' Sideswipe is a [[redeco]] of the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|2001 ''Robots in Disguise'']] [[Prowl (RID)#Toys|Prowl]] mold, once again transforming into a Lamborghini Diablo. A pair of add-on thrusters become arm-mounted launchers for robot mode; each one being a pressure-launch missile launcher.

:The part that connects the toy's windshield to the main body uses a red [[sticker]] rather than paint, as that part is made out of [[unpaintable plastic]]. The police lights from the original mold were removed, leaving this area bare.

:This mold was also used to make ''Universe'' [[Inferno (Universe)|Inferno]] and the ''Universe'' incarnation of [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Universe (2003)|Generation 1 Sunstreaker]].

{{note|While the toy's name was spelled "Sideswipe" (one word) on its own packaging, the cross-sell on the packaging for the OTFCC 2003 [[Shadow Striker (Universe)|Shadow Striker]]/[[Roulette (Universe)|Roulette]] two-pack spelled it "Side Swipe" (two words) instead.

*'''Lambor''' (2003)
**''Japanese ID number'': '''GTF-02'''

:''[[Smallest Transforming Transformers]]'' Lambor is a very small-scale, extensively simplified replica of the original Sideswipe toy. He has very little articulation, he has no weapons, and his vehicle mode wheels cannot roll.

:This mold was [[retool]]ed to make ''Smallest Transforming Transformers'' [[Red Alert (G1)/toys|Alert]].

===Alternators/Binaltech===
[[File:AlternatorsSide Swipe toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Just think, he was almost Tracks.]]
*'''Side Swipe''' (2003, [[2004]])
**''Alternator ID number:'' '''2'''
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''BT-02'''
**''Accessories:'' Dodge Viper Engine/gun

:The second ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' toy released, Side Swipe's [[alternate mode]] is a [[licensed vehicle alternate modes|licensed]] 1:24 scale [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes#Dodge Viper .28Chrysler.29|Dodge Viper]] (identified as an SRT-10 model by the Japanese ''Binaltech'' version) featuring opening doors, a detailed interior, and a hood that opens to reveal an engine bay holding a replica Viper V-10 engine. The vehicle mode also features movable steering and [[rubber tires]] with [[vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metalized]] wheels. His removable engine becomes a blaster.

:The main difference between Hasbro's ''Alternators'' Side Swipe and Takara's ''Binaltech'' "Lambor" releases is that the ''Binaltech'' version has die-cast metal parts for most of the car's outer body shell, with the exception of the rear end (the "backpack" [[kibble]] in robot mode), and the entire red exterior of the car is fully painted, unlike the ''Alternators'' version's flat red plastic. Furthermore, the ''Alternators'' version sports additional "blackwash" [[paint operation]]s on his chest the ''Binaltech'' version lacks.

:The Dodge Viper sculpt was originally designed to be a new body for [[Tracks (G1)/toys|Tracks]] after the first attempt to secure the Corvette license had fallen through. Eventually, though, Chevrolet had a change of mind and granted Hasbro and Takara the license for the Corvette design after all. As a result, the Viper mold was slightly redesigned, was given a new head sculpt and released as Sideswipe (or "Side Swipe") instead. This explains why, unlike most of the early Alternators toys, Side Swipe's robot mode bears little resemblance to his G1 self. The most noticeable redesign from the "Tracks" design was the vehicle mode's doors being moved from the "backpack" kibble (where they would have resembled the G1 Tracks toy's wings) to the sides of the arms, thus being the most obvious visual cue taken from the G1 Sideswipe toy. The doors are, however, still splayed out to the sides in the ''Alternators'' version's [[package art]] and can be moved to match Tracks's wing configuration, which implies that the redesign may have been done before the switch from Tracks to Sideswipe was made.

:This sculpt was [[retool]]ed to make [[Dead End (G1)#Alternators/Binaltech|Dead End]], who was then [[redeco]]ed into [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Alternators|Sunstreaker]] (although the retool was originally done with Sunstreaker in mind).

===Commemorative Series===
[[File:Sideswipebox.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb]]
*'''Side Swipe''' (Toys"R"Us exclusive, USA/Australia/Canada 2004; KB Toys exclusive, USA 2005; Asian markets exclusive, 2012)
**''Series:'' '''VIII'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:The version of Generation 1 Sideswipe previously released as part of Takara's "Transformers Collection" series, albeit with its spring-loaded launcher de-sprung [[for safety reasons]], was reissued by [[Hasbro]] under the modified name "Side Swipe" as part of their [[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]] VIII, one of the last American reissues. However, because [[Toys"R"Us]], who had carried the Commemorative Series as an [[exclusive]] line up until that point, had abruptly decided to discontinue the line, Side Swipe was only released in very low quantities in the United States; in fact, his availability at TRU was considered a myth for many years. The unsold stock was made available a year later through [[KB Toys]] stores and outlets, at half the original price. The figure ''was'', however, available at Toys"R"Us stores in Australia and Canada in 2004 in average quantities.

:In 2012, several Commemorative Series figures, among them Side Swipe, were re-released in Hasbro's Asian markets, in slightly altered packaging. Unlike most of the other figures from this batch, Side Swipe retained the "Commemorative Series VIII" label on his box; however, the background color of the "choking hazard" safety warning label was changed from red to black, the Hasbro logo was updated to the then-current version, and the "+" after the "Ages 5+" recommendation was increased in size. Oddly, even though Hasbro had started spelling the name of toys of the character as "Sideswipe" again in 2008, this release still rendered the name as "Side Swipe".

===Universe (2008)===
[[File:Universe2008 SideSwipe toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Better red than...]]
*'''Sideswipe''' (Deluxe, 2008)
**''Series'': '''Classic Series'''
**''Accessories:'' "Flare Launcher", engine supercharger intakes

:Part of the third wave of [[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|2008 ''Universe'']] Deluxe Class toys, Sideswipe is a retool/[[redeco]] of ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'' [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Universe (2008)|Sunstreaker]], transforming into a modified {{w|Lamborghini Gallardo}}. Though the car is mostly based upon the Gallardo, to avoid legal problems, it also features modified headlights and elements taken from other cars—most of them are taken from other Lamborghini models, such as a rear end that is basically a cross between a {{w|Lamborghini Murciélago|Murciélago}} and a {{w|Lamborghini Diablo|Diablo}}; however, the split side windows and the ridges on the door vents are based on a {{w|McLaren F1}}. He also comes with the same roof-mounted engine supercharger accessory as Sunstreaker. Hasbro's early plans for Sunstreaker and Sideswipe had the two as straight redecos of each other, only differing in their head sculpts besides their colors—namely, Sunstreaker would have just been Sideswipe in yellow with a different head. It was [[TakaraTomy]] designer [[Hisashi Yuki]] who suggested an alternate transformation by turning the upper body by 180 degrees (and swapping the hands to accommodate the different upper body orientation), thus providing more individual robot mode looks for the two characters that resemble their respective ''[[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1]]'' designs more.<ref name="generations2009">Interview with Hisashi Yuki in [[Transformers Generations 2009|''Transformers Generations 2009'' vol. 1]], [http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-news-rumors/223379-takaratomy-staff-interview-generations-2009-vol-1-translation.html English translation] at TFW2005.</ref>

:[[File:SunstreakerSideswipeSDCC2007.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4|''Universe'' [[Tigertrack]]. Fortunately, this didn't happen.]]
:Hasbro also originally intended the [[alternate mode]]'s supercharger to split into two halves which would then become the handgun and a spring-loaded shoulder launcher for the robot mode. On the final toy, the Flare Launcher (a redeco of Sunstreaker's Electron Pulse Blaster) can be combined with the removable supercharger engine accessory by wrapping the intakes around the gun and mounted in either of the holes on his shoulders to simulate Sideswipe's Generation 1 missile launcher. Of course, this leaves him without a hand-held weapon. The engine can also be mounted on Sideswipe's back as his [[Jet pack|rocket pack]]. Most of this is not shown in the [[instructions]], which only instruct the owner of the toy to put the gun in his hand and attach the supercharger to his back.

:Even worse, Sideswipe's instruction line art is recycled from Sunstreaker's instructions and therefore incorrectly gives him Sunstreaker's transformation and head, despite the [[stock photography|stock photo]] depicted on top of the instructions showing him with the hood as the chest and the correct Sideswipe head.<ref>[http://hasbro.com/common/instruct/83685.pdf Official Universe Sideswipe instructions PDF file on Hasbro.com]</ref> Unfortunately, the stock photo Hasbro provided to online retailers retains this incorrect transformation, and [[:File:UniSideswipeStockPhoto.jpg|throws in some additional mistakes as well]]. Oy.

:The Sunstreaker/Sideswipe sculpt was also retooled into ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' [[Punch (G1)#Timelines|Punch]], [[Breakdown (G1)#Timelines|''Generation 2'' Breakdown]], and [[Breakdown (G1)#G1TimelinesBreakdown|Generation 1 Breakdown]], as well as ''[[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (toyline)|Henkei! Henkei!]]'' [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Henkei! Henkei!|Alert]] and ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Generations|Red Alert]].

*'''Lambor''' (Deluxe, [[2008]]-[[October 23|10-23]])
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''C-09'''
**''Accessories:'' "Flare Launcher"

:The Japanese version of ''Universe'' Sideswipe has [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum metallized]] silver on his flare launcher and his spoiler, but does not come with the supercharger engine/[[Jet pack|rocket pack]] accessory that Henkei Sunstreaker and ''Universe'' Sunstreaker/Sideswipe included. This was a willful decision meant to differentiate further between him and Sunstreaker. That's right: Takara ''deliberately omitted an optional accessory'' to make the toy more "G1-accurate".<ref name="generations2009"/>

:He also has correct, personalized [[instructions]] that aren't just Sunstreaker's. Like Sunstreaker, the Japanese version's roof paint is a much closer match to the red colored plastic. The Japanese version also features a glossier black paint and the white has a yellow tint compared the white plastic used for Hasbro version. His [[license plate]] says "LAMBOR" rather than "SWIPE".

*'''Sideswipe''' ([[BotCon 2010]] customization class Deluxe)
**''Accessories'': Gun/tailpipe, engine supercharger intakes

:A ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]''-style redeco of ''Universe'' Sideswipe, ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' Sideswipe is pre-molded in new colors, which was unprecedented for the BotCon customization class exclusive (and apparently came as a surprise to [[Fun Publications]]). During the class, the mold was assembled, painted and stickered by the enrollees. Between the two classes, there were 52 participants.

:The exact brands and colors of paints utilized to paint this figure were:

:-Polly Scale #F414296 Stainless Steel (face and hub caps)
:-Polly Scale #F505020 Red RLM23 (this color is discontinued from the manufacturer)
:-Model Master Acryl #4769 Flat White (base coat under RLM 23 on hood)
:-Model Master Acryl #4768 Flat Black (tires)
:-Model Master Acryl #4721 Insignia Yellow (side markers)
:-Model Master Acryl #4637 Semi-Gloss Clear
:-Model Master Acryl #4609 British Crimson (tail lights)
:-Model Master Acryl #4746 Medium Gray (base coat under RLM 23 on upper arms, under Stainless Steel on face and hubcaps)
:-Vallejo #72023 Electric Blue (gun tip)

:In regards to the plastic mold changes, white remains white, but like the original ''Generation 2'' figure, the red and black colors are swapped. Clear green replaces the clear plastic used for the window and thighs.

:This figure uses the ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' [[Red Alert (G1)#Generations|Red Alert]] version of the mold, which includes two screw holes in the canopy (rather than one like ''Henkei! Henkei!'' Alert or none like all other versions of this mold). The samples [[Shawn D. Tessmann|Shawn Tessmann]] had on display used the original version of the mold, and lacked the screw holes. Despite the mold change, the lightbar was not included. These holes replace the slots used to mount the rocket pack in robot mode. The rocket pack can still be mounted on the gun in robot mode and in car mode though. As an unintended result of having empty screw holes over the rocket pack sockets, Sideswipe can now mount his gun inside either screw hole on the roof of his car mode.

:The unassembled figure was also given out to those who volunteered at BotCon 2010.

**''Set number'': '''31771'''
**''Pieces'': '''220'''
**''Kreons'': Sideswipe, [[Sideswipe's driver|Driver]]
**''Accessories'': Rifle

:''[[Kre-O]]'' Sideswipe can be built in either robot or G1-inspired car mode. His head sculpt is heavily based on [[#Universe (2008)|''Universe'' Sideswipe]]'s head design, but as a first for a Sideswipe toy with a primarily red body, the head is ''not'' colored black, but ''red'' like the ''Generation 2''-inspired BotCon 2010 customization class version's head ([[#Timelines|see above]]). He comes with two [[Kreon]]s: a Sideswipe based on the Generation 1 character and a generic driver.

:Like many other Kre-O sets, his stock photography shows a different robot mode construction than the final product. The most noticeable examples are his lower legs which have a much less awkward construction in the stock photos than the final product. Whether this is the photographer taking creative liberty or if the set design changed is unknown. The stock photography also depicts the set as including the [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Red Alert]] Kreon in place of Sideswipe.

[[File:Masterpiece-MP12Lambor.jpg|thumb|upright=2.2|Lamborghini-approved awesomeness!]]
*'''Lambor''' ([[2012]]-[[October 27|10-27]])
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MP-12'''
**''Accessories:'' Missile launcher, flare gun, two pile drivers (A), two pile drivers (B, Amazon.co.jp only)
: ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' Lambor transforms into a licensed Lamborghini Countach LP500S. As with other figures in the ''Masterpiece'' line, he is intended to be an accurate representation of his [[Character model|cartoon model]], and even features a Lamborghini-supervised paint scheme, such as glossy red [[Paint operation|paint]] covering the ''entirety'' of his vehicle mode panels and robot shoulders, as well as various bits of black detailing to make it accurate to the real-life vehicle. Standing at around 6¼ inches (or 15.5 centimetres) from head to toe in robot mode, he is also in [[scale]] with MP-10 [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#mp10|Optimus Prime]], and can fit inside [[Combat Deck (G1)#mp10|Prime's trailer]] in vehicle mode. In contrast to larger entries in this line, Lambor lacks [[die-cast]] parts, and his tires are cast in hard, non-rubberized plastic.

[[File:MP-13 Lambor full color.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.1|The Amazon version's additional <s>cake slicers</s> <s>screwdrivers</s> pile drivers.]]
: For accessories, he comes with his hand-held flare gun, and his non-firing missile launcher, which is jointed at the peg to allow it to pivot up and down, and can mount on either shoulder in robot mode. His launcher and gun can be combined and mounted on a self-covering peg-hole on his vehicle roof/robot back. He also comes with a pair of pile drivers, which can snap onto the ends of his forearms when either hand is flipped in, and are based on the blunt arm pistons he uses in "[[A Plague of Insecticons]]".

:If purchased in Japan through [[Amazon (website)|Amazon.com]], one additionally gets a different [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metalized]] pair of pile drivers, which are based on the jackhammer-like pistons he uses in "[[Dinobot Island, Part 2]]". If purchased in other Asian markets outside of Japan, a collector's coin is included instead. Both the coin and its wheel-shaped package identify him as Sideswipe instead of Lambor. In Malaysia, Lambor included both the additional Amazon.co.jp pile drivers and the coin. A reissue of the figure in September 2015 came with a different coin, coming in a package shaped like Sideswipe's chest/front hood.<ref>http://news.tfw2005.com/2015/08/24/masterpiece-lambor-hasbro-asia-reissue-collectors-coin-300240</ref>

:This mold was redecoed and retooled to make MP-14 [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Alert]]. Lambor's version of the mold, with Alert's face, was then redecoed into MP-12T [[Tigertrack#Masterpiece|Tigertrack]].

*'''Lambor G-2 Ver.''' ([[2014]]-[[February 22|02-22]])
**''Japanese ID number'': '''MP-12G'''
**''Accessories'': MA68S Machine Gun, GZS-3 Grenade Launcher, Broad Sword, 2 "Spike Armor" wheels
:Like the original [[#Generation 2|''Generation 2'' Sideswipe toy]], ''Masterpiece'' Lambor G-2 Ver. features mostly a straight-up swap of his red and black plastic and paint colors, resulting in a black body with red trim. His windows have been changed from translucent black to translucent red, his helmet is painted red, and he features a new, [[Derek Yaniger|Yaniger]]-licious snarling face with separately-painted [[Teeth|pearly whites]]. He comes with a [[sticker]] sheet that duplicates the original G2 toy's deco, as well as two comic-accurate ''Generaton 2'' Autobot symbol stickers of varying sizes. While the majority of the red car parts on the original Masterpiece figure are now black, portions of the robot mode that were previously red remain red. These areas include the back of his legs as well as portions of his torso.

:Instead of his original weapons, Lambor comes with new accessories based on the weapons he wielded in the Marvel G2 comic. These include a handheld machine gun and grenade launcher, a pair of articulated, non-rolling spiked wheels that can mount on his shoulders, and a sword, all of which can combine and mount onto his roof. Sadly, he does ''not'' come with a bandolier to properly carry that sword on his back, which means the sword just kind-of loosely stows there according to the [[instructions]].

:If purchased in Asian markets outside of Japan, a recolor of MP-12 Lambor's collector's coin is included. Among other minor differences, the coin is now colored silver, and its wheel-shaped package now features a ''Generation 2'' Autobot symbol at the back in place of a Generation 1-type symbol.

:Issued to coincide with the release of ''Masterpiece'' [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Sunstreaker]] and continuing the Masterpiece+ sideline, started with ''Masterpiece'' [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#MasterpieceAnimeColor|Alert Anime Color Edition]], Lambor Anime Color Edition is a redeco and retool of Lambor in more anime accurate colors—including bright white paint on the thighs and the ridges by his head. His arms and feet remain a very light blue / off-white color to replicate the distinction in color his [[character model]] featured between the original toy's white plastic and vac-metallic silver parts. The Autobot symbol on his chest is larger. He now has MP-14 Alert's face in place of the original MP-12's face.

:He comes with three sets of pile drivers, the two from the original MP-12, plus the third set originally included with [[Clamp Down|''Masterpiece'' Clamp Down]], redecoed in grey, which are based on their appearance in "[[S.O.S. Dinobots]]."

:When purchased in Asian markets outside of Japan, ''yet another'' (number four for those keeping track at home) collector coin is included, cast in bright silver (as opposed to the brushed appearance of the G-2 coin), which also for the first time identifies him as "Lambor". It comes mounted on a card similar to the original MP-12 and G-2 coins, however the wheel motif is based on the actual Countach wheel design, rather than the generic spoked wheel of its predecessors. Like the coin itself, the card identifies him as "Lambor."<ref>http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/the-masterpiece-cards-coins-thread.819496/page-24#post-15270213</ref>

:Released as part of a third wave of [[Transformers: Generations#PrimeWarsTrilogyAsian|''Generations'' Cyber Battalion]] figures, Sideswipe is a heavy retool of Cyber Battalion Prowl, featuring a new head, chest, forearms, and feet. He can convert from robot to a car in 8 steps. He has a chunkier design and is intended for a younger audience, but despite that he has an excellent range of poseability. The transformation seems to partially be taken from the ''Reveal the Shield'' Legends Class [[Prowl (G1)/toys#Transformers (2010)|Prowl]] figure.

:Part of the first wave of ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege (toyline)|War for Cybertron: Siege]]'' Deluxe Class figures, Sideswipe transforms from robot to Cybertronian car and back. He includes two weapons compatible with the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]]—the "W-10 Photo-Pulser Proton Launcher", and the "W-5 Gyro Blaster". Both weapons can combine to form the "RR Gyrofuse Axleswitch Hyper-Blaster." Sideswipe also features "battle damage" paint applications on his waist, shins, and feet, as well as multiple hardpoints all over himself and his weapons to accommodate "Fire Blasts" from the [[Battle Master]]s assortment, which can be used to simulate blaster fire or explosions.

:The detacheable tip of Sideswipe's Proton Launcher was later used for ''War for Cybertron: Siege'' Sixgun's back-mounted weapons.

He will be included in the Firestorm pack, along with Slamdance. He features Battle Damage applications on his lower legs and crotch.

==Notes==
[[File:UnmadeG2SideswipeMockup.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66]]
*In recent years, a mock-up of a '''second''' ''Generation 2'' redeco of the original Sideswipe toy has surfaced. Acquired and [http://www.tf-1.com/articles/other/g2swipe_template.html photographed] by ''Transformers'' rarities-hunter Maziar "Maz" Shahsafdari, the find joins the ranks of the similarly unmade ''Generation 2'' [[Sandstorm (G2)|"desert Ramjet"]] and [http://www.tf-1.com/articles/other/g2mirage_template.html pink and green Mirage] mock-ups. [[Package art]] for the figure published in ''[[Legacy: The Art of Transformers Packaging]]'' revealed that it would have had decals of a sunrise/sunset on the vehicle mode hood and doors.
*During the 1990s, another company held the "Sideswipe" [[trademark]] in the "toys" field, even though Hasbro still released two toys using that name as part of the [[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]] line (it's unclear if this resulted in any legal repercussions for Hasbro). When Hasbro finally managed to reclaim the name for the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|''Robots in Disguise'' line]], the name was now rendered as "[[Side Swipe (RID)|Side Swipe]]", in two words, for whatever reason. The next two toys to spell "Sideswipe" as one word again were the [[OTFCC 2003]] [[exclusive]]<ref name="otfccsideswipe">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/exclusives/sideswipe/485/ OTFCC 2003 Sideswipe], named "Sideswipe" on his own packaging.</ref> and the ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' [[Side Swipe (Armada)|Super-Con]].<ref name="armadasideswipe1">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-images/toys/Armada/Autobots/Side+Swipe/side1.jpg.html ''Armada'' Side Swipe in original packaging], named "Sideswipe".</ref> However, the OTFCC figure was referred to as "Side Swipe" when featured as a [[cross-sell]] on the packaging for the OTFCC 2003 [[Shadow Striker (Universe)|Shadow Striker]]/[[Roulette (Universe)|Roulette]] two-pack,<ref name="otfccvipersisters">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/exclusives/shadow-striker/483/1/10/ Cross-sell on the OTFCC 2003 Shadow Striker/Roulette two-pack's packaging], identifying Sideswipe as "Side Swipe".</ref> whereas the "[[The Unicron Battles|Unicron Battles]]-style packaging redesign for the ''Armada'' figure saw the name changed to "Side Swipe" on the name insert as well.<ref name="armadasideswipe2">[http://www.shmax.com/product_details/835/sideswipe_with_nightbeat ''Armada'' Side Swipe in "Unicron Battles" packaging], named "Side Swipe".</ref> Hasbro ''finally'' decided to re-file the name "Sideswipe" (as one word) as a trademark in 2008, presumably because a [[Sideswipe (Movie)|character]] in the upcoming movie ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' and the accompanying [[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|toy line]] was going to sport that name, and Hasbro were using that as an opportunity to re-introduce the spelling of the name as one word. As a result, the ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'' Deluxe Class toy was the first toy to "properly" sport the name "Sideswipe" as one word. Oddly enough, in 2012, Hasbro re-filed "Side Swipe", along with several other old trademarks.<ref name="swipe2012">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-movie-toys-products-30/latest-hasbro-transformers-trademarks-tow-line-armorhide-rollbar-side-swipe-175521/ Hasbro re-files old trademarks]</ref>
*[[Fun Publications]] considered making a ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' Sideswipe (as a straight redeco of ''Combiner Wars'' Deluxe Class [[Breakdown (G1)#Generations|Breakdown]]), but ultimately shelved this idea in favor of other products.

:Originally a ''[[Diaclone]]'' "New [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes#Lamborghini Countach|Countach LP500S]]", Sideswipe transforms into... well, into that. In [[robot mode]] he is armed with a white rifle and a missile launcher that can clip onto either of his shoulders. The launcher can fire one of three included white missiles, in theory, as the springs were weakened for the US release [[for safety reasons]]. The original 1984 US release did not have the [[rubsign]] found on later releases.

:When Hasbro released the original Generation 1 toys in continental [[Europe]] through its then recently acquired subsidiary [[Milton Bradley]] in 1985, several toys, such as the Autobot Cars, were actually pre-existing stock originally intended for [[Joustra]]'s version of the ''[[Diaclone]]'' line that was acquired by Hasbro as part of an agreement with Joustra and put into MB-branded ''Transformers'' packaging. For some reason, the Sunstreaker toy (sporting its yellow Hasbro ''Transformers'' colors due to being produced during the ''Diaclone''/''Transformers'' transitional period) was released in packaging intended for his brother Sideswipe, an entirely different sculpt. The packaging even included Sideswipe's instructions and sticker sheet, neither of which were of much use for the toy. It's currently unknown whether the actual Sideswipe toy was ever sold in MB "Sideswipe" packaging at all, although considering the origin of the MB-branded Autobot Cars, it's very unlikely for this to be the case.<ref name="mbsunswipe">[http://20thcenturytoycollector.com/mb-transformers-part-6/ "MB Transformers: Part 6"] at 20th Century Toy Collector.</ref>

The vehicle mode also features movable steering and [[rubber tires]] with [[vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metalized]] wheels. His removable engine becomes a blaster.

:The main difference between Hasbro's ''Alternators'' Side Swipe and Takara's ''Binaltech'' "Lambor" releases is that the ''Binaltech'' version has die-cast metal parts for most of the car's outer body shell, with the exception of the rear end (the "backpack" [[kibble]] in robot mode), and the entire red exterior of the car is fully painted, unlike the ''Alternators'' version's flat red plastic. Furthermore, the ''Alternators'' version sports additional "blackwash" [[paint operation]]s on his chest the ''Binaltech'' version lacks.

:The Dodge Viper sculpt was originally designed to be a new body for [[Tracks (G1)/toys|Tracks]] after the first attempt to secure the Corvette license had fallen through. Eventually, though, Chevrolet had a change of mind and granted Hasbro and Takara the license for the Corvette design after all. As a result, the Viper mold was slightly redesigned, was given a new head sculpt and released as Sideswipe (or "Side Swipe") instead. This explains why, unlike most of the early Alternators toys, Side Swipe's robot mode bears little resemblance to his G1 self. The most noticeable redesign from the "Tracks" design was the vehicle mode's doors being moved from the "backpack" kibble (where they would have resembled the G1 Tracks toy's wings) to the sides of the arms, thus being the most obvious visual cue taken from the G1 Sideswipe toy. The doors are, however, still splayed out to the sides in the ''Alternators'' version's [[package art]] and can be moved to match Tracks's wing configuration, which implies that the redesign may have been done before the switch from Tracks to Sideswipe was made.

:This sculpt was [[retool]]ed to make [[Dead End (G1)#Alternators/Binaltech|Dead End]], who was then [[redeco]]ed into [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Alternators|Sunstreaker]] (although the retool was originally done with Sunstreaker in mind).

===Commemorative Series===

*'''Side Swipe''' (Toys"R"Us exclusive, USA/Australia/Canada 2004; KB Toys exclusive, USA 2005; Asian markets exclusive, 2012)
**''Series:'' '''VIII'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:The version of Generation 1 Sideswipe previously released as part of Takara's "Transformers Collection" series, albeit with its spring-loaded launcher de-sprung [[for safety reasons]], was reissued by [[Hasbro]] under the modified name "Side Swipe" as part of their [[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]] VIII, one of the last American reissues. However, because [[Toys"R"Us]], who had carried the Commemorative Series as an [[exclusive]] line up until that point, had abruptly decided to discontinue the line, Side Swipe was only released in very low quantities in the United States; in fact, his availability at TRU was considered a myth for many years. The unsold stock was made available a year later through [[KB Toys]] stores and outlets, at half the original price. The figure ''was'', however, available at Toys"R"Us stores in Australia and Canada in 2004 in average quantities.

:In 2012, several Commemorative Series figures, among them Side Swipe, were re-released in Hasbro's Asian markets, in slightly altered packaging. Unlike most of the other figures from this batch, Side Swipe retained the "Commemorative Series VIII" label on his box; however, the background color of the "choking hazard" safety warning label was changed from red to black, the Hasbro logo was updated to the then-current version, and the "+" after the "Ages 5+" recommendation was increased in size. Oddly, even though Hasbro had started spelling the name of toys of the character as "Sideswipe" again in 2008, this release still rendered the name as "Side Swipe".

[[File:Universe2008 SideSwipe toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Better red than...]]
*'''Sideswipe''' (Deluxe, 2008)
**''Series'': '''Classic Series'''
**''Accessories:'' "Flare Launcher", engine supercharger intakes

:Part of the third wave of [[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|2008 ''Universe'']] Deluxe Class toys, Sideswipe is a retool/[[redeco]] of ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'' [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Universe (2008)|Sunstreaker]], transforming into a modified {{w|Lamborghini Gallardo}}. Though the car is mostly based upon the Gallardo, to avoid legal problems, it also features modified headlights and elements taken from other cars—most of them are taken from other Lamborghini models, such as a rear end that is basically a cross between a {{w|Lamborghini Murciélago|Murciélago}} and a {{w|Lamborghini Diablo|Diablo}}; however, the split side windows and the ridges on the door vents are based on a {{w|McLaren F1}}. He also comes with the same roof-mounted engine supercharger accessory as Sunstreaker. Hasbro's early plans for Sunstreaker and Sideswipe had the two as straight redecos of each other, only differing in their head sculpts besides their colors—namely, Sunstreaker would have just been Sideswipe in yellow with a different head. It was [[TakaraTomy]] designer [[Hisashi Yuki]] who suggested an alternate transformation by turning the upper body by 180 degrees (and swapping the hands to accommodate the different upper body orientation), thus providing more individual robot mode looks for the two characters that resemble their respective ''[[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1]]'' designs more.<ref name="generations2009">Interview with Hisashi Yuki in [[Transformers Generations 2009|''Transformers Generations 2009'' vol. 1]], [http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-news-rumors/223379-takaratomy-staff-interview-generations-2009-vol-1-translation.html English translation] at TFW2005.</ref>

:[[File:SunstreakerSideswipeSDCC2007.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4|''Universe'' [[Tigertrack]]. Fortunately, this didn't happen.]]
:Hasbro also originally intended the [[alternate mode]]'s supercharger to split into two halves which would then become the handgun and a spring-loaded shoulder launcher for the robot mode. On the final toy, the Flare Launcher (a redeco of Sunstreaker's Electron Pulse Blaster) can be combined with the removable supercharger engine accessory by wrapping the intakes around the gun and mounted in either of the holes on his shoulders to simulate Sideswipe's Generation 1 missile launcher. Of course, this leaves him without a hand-held weapon. The engine can also be mounted on Sideswipe's back as his [[Jet pack|rocket pack]]. Most of this is not shown in the [[instructions]], which only instruct the owner of the toy to put the gun in his hand and attach the supercharger to his back.

:Even worse, Sideswipe's instruction line art is recycled from Sunstreaker's instructions and therefore incorrectly gives him Sunstreaker's transformation and head, despite the [[stock photography|stock photo]] depicted on top of the instructions showing him with the hood as the chest and the correct Sideswipe head.<ref>[http://hasbro.com/common/instruct/83685.pdf Official Universe Sideswipe instructions PDF file on Hasbro.com]</ref> Unfortunately, the stock photo Hasbro provided to online retailers retains this incorrect transformation, and [[:File:UniSideswipeStockPhoto.jpg|throws in some additional mistakes as well]]. Oy.

:The Sunstreaker/Sideswipe sculpt was also retooled into ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' [[Punch (G1)#Timelines|Punch]], [[Breakdown (G1)#Timelines|''Generation 2'' Breakdown]], and [[Breakdown (G1)#G1TimelinesBreakdown|Generation 1 Breakdown]], as well as ''[[Henkei!

**''Japanese ID number:'' '''C-09'''
**''Accessories:'' "Flare Launcher"

:The Japanese version of ''Universe'' Sideswipe has [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum metallized]] silver on his flare launcher and his spoiler, but does not come with the supercharger engine/[[Jet pack|rocket pack]] accessory that Henkei Sunstreaker and ''Universe'' Sunstreaker/Sideswipe included. This was a willful decision meant to differentiate further between him and Sunstreaker. That's right: Takara ''deliberately omitted an optional accessory'' to make the toy more "G1-accurate".<ref name="generations2009"/>

:He also has correct, personalized [[instructions]] that aren't just Sunstreaker's. Like Sunstreaker, the Japanese version's roof paint is a much closer match to the red colored plastic. The Japanese version also features a glossier black paint and the white has a yellow tint compared the white plastic used for Hasbro version. His [[license plate]] says "LAMBOR" rather than "SWIPE".

*'''Sideswipe''' ([[BotCon 2010]] customization class Deluxe)
**''Accessories'': Gun/tailpipe, engine supercharger intakes

:A ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]''-style redeco of ''Universe'' Sideswipe, ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' Sideswipe is pre-molded in new colors, which was unprecedented for the BotCon customization class exclusive (and apparently came as a surprise to [[Fun Publications]]). During the class, the mold was assembled, painted and stickered by the enrollees. Between the two classes, there were 52 participants.

:The exact brands and colors of paints utilized to paint this figure were:

:-Polly Scale #F414296 Stainless Steel (face and hub caps)
:-Polly Scale #F505020 Red RLM23 (this color is discontinued from the manufacturer)
:-Model Master Acryl #4769 Flat White (base coat under RLM 23 on hood)
:-Model Master Acryl #4768 Flat Black (tires)
:-Model Master Acryl #4721 Insignia Yellow (side markers)
:-Model Master Acryl #4637 Semi-Gloss Clear
:-Model Master Acryl #4609 British Crimson (tail lights)
:-Model Master Acryl #4746 Medium Gray (base coat under RLM 23 on upper arms, under Stainless Steel on face and hubcaps)
:-Vallejo #72023 Electric Blue (gun tip)

:In regards to the plastic mold changes, white remains white, but like the original ''Generation 2'' figure, the red and black colors are swapped. Clear green replaces the clear plastic used for the window and thighs.

:This figure uses the ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' [[Red Alert (G1)#Generations|Red Alert]] version of the mold, which includes two screw holes in the canopy (rather than one like ''Henkei! Henkei!'' Alert or none like all other versions of this mold). The samples [[Shawn D. Tessmann|Shawn Tessmann]] had on display used the original version of the mold, and lacked the screw holes. Despite the mold change, the lightbar was not included. These holes replace the slots used to mount the rocket pack in robot mode. The rocket pack can still be mounted on the gun in robot mode and in car mode though. As an unintended result of having empty screw holes over the rocket pack sockets, Sideswipe can now mount his gun inside either screw hole on the roof of his car mode.

:The unassembled figure was also given out to those who volunteered at BotCon 2010.

**''Set number'': '''31771'''
**''Pieces'': '''220'''
**''Kreons'': Sideswipe, [[Sideswipe's driver|Driver]]
**''Accessories'': Rifle

:''[[Kre-O]]'' Sideswipe can be built in either robot or G1-inspired car mode. His head sculpt is heavily based on [[#Universe (2008)|''Universe'' Sideswipe]]'s head design, but as a first for a Sideswipe toy with a primarily red body, the head is ''not'' colored black, but ''red'' like the ''Generation 2''-inspired BotCon 2010 customization class version's head ([[#Timelines|see above]]). He comes with two [[Kreon]]s: a Sideswipe based on the Generation 1 character and a generic driver.

:Like many other Kre-O sets, his stock photography shows a different robot mode construction than the final product. The most noticeable examples are his lower legs which have a much less awkward construction in the stock photos than the final product. Whether this is the photographer taking creative liberty or if the set design changed is unknown. The stock photography also depicts the set as including the [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Red Alert]] Kreon in place of Sideswipe.

[[File:Masterpiece-MP12Lambor.jpg|thumb|upright=2.2|Lamborghini-approved awesomeness!]]
*'''Lambor''' ([[2012]]-[[October 27|10-27]])
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MP-12'''
**''Accessories:'' Missile launcher, flare gun, two pile drivers (A), two pile drivers (B, Amazon.co.jp only)
: ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' Lambor transforms into a licensed Lamborghini Countach LP500S. As with other figures in the ''Masterpiece'' line, he is intended to be an accurate representation of his [[Character model|cartoon model]], and even features a Lamborghini-supervised paint scheme, such as glossy red [[Paint operation|paint]] covering the ''entirety'' of his vehicle mode panels and robot shoulders, as well as various bits of black detailing to make it accurate to the real-life vehicle. Standing at around 6¼ inches (or 15.5 centimetres) from head to toe in robot mode, he is also in [[scale]] with MP-10 [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#mp10|Optimus Prime]], and can fit inside [[Combat Deck (G1)#mp10|Prime's trailer]] in vehicle mode. In contrast to larger entries in this line, Lambor lacks [[die-cast]] parts, and his tires are cast in hard, non-rubberized plastic.

[[File:MP-13 Lambor full color.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.1|The Amazon version's additional <s>cake slicers</s> <s>screwdrivers</s> pile drivers.]]
: For accessories, he comes with his hand-held flare gun, and his non-firing missile launcher, which is jointed at the peg to allow it to pivot up and down, and can mount on either shoulder in robot mode. His launcher and gun can be combined and mounted on a self-covering peg-hole on his vehicle roof/robot back. He also comes with a pair of pile drivers, which can snap onto the ends of his forearms when either hand is flipped in, and are based on the blunt arm pistons he uses in "[[A Plague of Insecticons]]".

:If purchased in Japan through [[Amazon (website)|Amazon.com]], one additionally gets a different [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metalized]] pair of pile drivers, which are based on the jackhammer-like pistons he uses in "[[Dinobot Island, Part 2]]". If purchased in other Asian markets outside of Japan, a collector's coin is included instead. Both the coin and its wheel-shaped package identify him as Sideswipe instead of Lambor. In Malaysia, Lambor included both the additional Amazon.co.jp pile drivers and the coin. A reissue of the figure in September 2015 came with a different coin, coming in a package shaped like Sideswipe's chest/front hood.<ref>http://news.tfw2005.com/2015/08/24/masterpiece-lambor-hasbro-asia-reissue-collectors-coin-300240</ref>

:This mold was redecoed and retooled to make MP-14 [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Alert]]. Lambor's version of the mold, with Alert's face, was then redecoed into MP-12T [[Tigertrack#Masterpiece|Tigertrack]].

**''Japanese ID number'': '''MP-12G'''
**''Accessories'': MA68S Machine Gun, GZS-3 Grenade Launcher, Broad Sword, 2 "Spike Armor" wheels
:Like the original [[#Generation 2|''Generation 2'' Sideswipe toy]], ''Masterpiece'' Lambor G-2 Ver. features mostly a straight-up swap of his red and black plastic and paint colors, resulting in a black body with red trim. His windows have been changed from translucent black to translucent red, his helmet is painted red, and he features a new, [[Derek Yaniger|Yaniger]]-licious snarling face with separately-painted [[Teeth|pearly whites]]. He comes with a [[sticker]] sheet that duplicates the original G2 toy's deco, as well as two comic-accurate ''Generaton 2'' Autobot symbol stickers of varying sizes. While the majority of the red car parts on the original Masterpiece figure are now black, portions of the robot mode that were previously red remain red. These areas include the back of his legs as well as portions of his torso.

:Instead of his original weapons, Lambor comes with new accessories based on the weapons he wielded in the Marvel G2 comic. These include a handheld machine gun and grenade launcher, a pair of articulated, non-rolling spiked wheels that can mount on his shoulders, and a sword, all of which can combine and mount onto his roof. Sadly, he does ''not'' come with a bandolier to properly carry that sword on his back, which means the sword just kind-of loosely stows there according to the [[instructions]].

:If purchased in Asian markets outside of Japan, a recolor of MP-12 Lambor's collector's coin is included. Among other minor differences, the coin is now colored silver, and its wheel-shaped package now features a ''Generation 2'' Autobot symbol at the back in place of a Generation 1-type symbol.

His arms and feet remain a very light blue / off-white color to replicate the distinction in color his [[character model]] featured between the original toy's white plastic and vac-metallic silver parts. The Autobot symbol on his chest is larger. He now has MP-14 Alert's face in place of the original MP-12's face.

:He comes with three sets of pile drivers, the two from the original MP-12, plus the third set originally included with [[Clamp Down|''Masterpiece'' Clamp Down]], redecoed in grey, which are based on their appearance in "[[S.O.S. Dinobots]]."

:When purchased in Asian markets outside of Japan, ''yet another'' (number four for those keeping track at home) collector coin is included, cast in bright silver (as opposed to the brushed appearance of the G-2 coin), which also for the first time identifies him as "Lambor". It comes mounted on a card similar to the original MP-12 and G-2 coins, however the wheel motif is based on the actual Countach wheel design, rather than the generic spoked wheel of its predecessors.

[[File:UnmadeG2SideswipeMockup.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66]]
*In recent years, a mock-up of a '''second''' ''Generation 2'' redeco of the original Sideswipe toy has surfaced. Acquired and [http://www.tf-1.com/articles/other/g2swipe_template.html photographed] by ''Transformers'' rarities-hunter Maziar "Maz" Shahsafdari, the find joins the ranks of the similarly unmade ''Generation 2'' [[Sandstorm (G2)|"desert Ramjet"]] and [http://www.tf-1.com/articles/other/g2mirage_template.html pink and green Mirage] mock-ups. [[Package art]] for the figure published in ''[[Legacy: The Art of Transformers Packaging]]'' revealed that it would have had decals of a sunrise/sunset on the vehicle mode hood and doors.
*During the 1990s, another company held the "Sideswipe" [[trademark]] in the "toys" field, even though Hasbro still released two toys using that name as part of the [[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]] line (it's unclear if this resulted in any legal repercussions for Hasbro). When Hasbro finally managed to reclaim the name for the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|''Robots in Disguise'' line]], the name was now rendered as "[[Side Swipe (RID)|Side Swipe]]", in two words, for whatever reason. The next two toys to spell "Sideswipe" as one word again were the [[OTFCC 2003]] [[exclusive]]<ref name="otfccsideswipe">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/exclusives/sideswipe/485/ OTFCC 2003 Sideswipe], named "Sideswipe" on his own packaging.</ref> and the ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' [[Side Swipe (Armada)|Super-Con]].<ref name="armadasideswipe1">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-images/toys/Armada/Autobots/Side+Swipe/side1.jpg.html ''Armada'' Side Swipe in original packaging], named "Sideswipe".</ref> However, the OTFCC figure was referred to as "Side Swipe" when featured as a [[cross-sell]] on the packaging for the OTFCC 2003 [[Shadow Striker (Universe)|Shadow Striker]]/[[Roulette (Universe)|Roulette]] two-pack,<ref name="otfccvipersisters">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/exclusives/shadow-striker/483/1/10/ Cross-sell on the OTFCC 2003 Shadow Striker/Roulette two-pack's packaging], identifying Sideswipe as "Side Swipe".</ref> whereas the "[[The Unicron Battles|Unicron Battles]]-style packaging redesign for the ''Armada'' figure saw the name changed to "Side Swipe" on the name insert as well.<ref name="armadasideswipe2">[http://www.shmax.com/product_details/835/sideswipe_with_nightbeat ''Armada'' Side Swipe in "Unicron Battles" packaging], named "Side Swipe".</ref> Hasbro ''finally'' decided to re-file the name "Sideswipe" (as one word) as a trademark in 2008, presumably because a [[Sideswipe (Movie)|character]] in the upcoming movie ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' and the accompanying [[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|toy line]] was going to sport that name, and Hasbro were using that as an opportunity to re-introduce the spelling of the name as one word. As a result, the ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'' Deluxe Class toy was the first toy to "properly" sport the name "Sideswipe" as one word. Oddly enough, in 2012, Hasbro re-filed "Side Swipe", along with several other old trademarks.<ref name="swipe2012">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-movie-toys-products-30/latest-hasbro-transformers-trademarks-tow-line-armorhide-rollbar-side-swipe-175521/ Hasbro re-files old trademarks]</ref>
*[[Fun Publications]] considered making a ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' Sideswipe (as a straight redeco of ''Combiner Wars'' Deluxe Class [[Breakdown (G1)#Generations|Breakdown]]), but ultimately shelved this idea in favor of other products.

[[File:G1sideswipe.jpg|upright=1.14|thumb|He had the look before it was [[Spy Changer|trendy]].]]
*'''Sideswipe''' ([[Autobot Cars]], [[1984]]/[[1985]], [[1991]], [[2001]]/[[2002]]/[[2003]])
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''04''', '''TFC-07'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:Originally a ''[[Diaclone]]'' "New [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes#Lamborghini Countach|Countach LP500S]]", Sideswipe transforms into... well, into that. In [[robot mode]] he is armed with a white rifle and a missile launcher that can clip onto either of his shoulders. The launcher can fire one of three included white missiles, in theory, as the springs were weakened for the US release [[for safety reasons]]. The original 1984 US release did not have the [[rubsign]] found on later releases.

:When Hasbro released the original Generation 1 toys in continental [[Europe]] through its then recently acquired subsidiary [[Milton Bradley]] in 1985, several toys, such as the Autobot Cars, were actually pre-existing stock originally intended for [[Joustra]]'s version of the ''[[Diaclone]]'' line that was acquired by Hasbro as part of an agreement with Joustra and put into MB-branded ''Transformers'' packaging. For some reason, the Sunstreaker toy (sporting its yellow Hasbro ''Transformers'' colors due to being produced during the ''Diaclone''/''Transformers'' transitional period) was released in packaging intended for his brother Sideswipe, an entirely different sculpt. The packaging even included Sideswipe's instructions and sticker sheet, neither of which were of much use for the toy. It's currently unknown whether the actual Sideswipe toy was ever sold in MB "Sideswipe" packaging at all, although considering the origin of the MB-branded Autobot Cars, it's very unlikely for this to be the case.<ref name="mbsunswipe">[http://20thcenturytoycollector.com/mb-transformers-part-6/ "MB Transformers: Part 6"] at 20th Century Toy Collector.</ref>

:This sculpt was also used to make [[Red Alert (G1)/toys|Red Alert]], [[Clamp Down]], [[Deep Cover]] and [[Tigertrack]].

*'''Sideswipe with Vanguard''' ([[Action Master]], 1991)
**''Accessories:'' "Photon laser" rifle

:A non-transforming action figure that combines elements from both his original toy and his [[Character model|animation model]], [[Action Master]] Sideswipe is compatible with any other Action Master weapon or vehicle. His [[Action Master partner|partner]]-unit [[Vanguard]] forms a backpack and battle helmet, and complements Sideswipe's color scheme quite well.

:Action Master Sideswipe was only available in [[The Transformers (European toyline)|European]] (and certain Australian) markets.

**''Accessories:'' Gun, missile launcher, 1 missile

:Part of the first assortment of Autobot cars, Sideswipe's original toy had his colors re-arranged to a black car mode with red and white robot parts, plus new [[neon]] green "racing" decals were added to the mix. His original rocket launcher was removed, and replaced with a large spring-loaded launcher that could be hand-held or mounted on his [[retool]]ed car mode roof.

:His new spring-loaded missile launcher was taken from [http://www.yojoe.com/action/91/snowserpent2.shtml Snow Serpent] from the ''[[G.I. Joe (team)|G.I. Joe]]'' toyline.

:A redeco of [[Go-Bot (G2)|Go-Bot]] [[Firecracker]], Sideswipe transforms into a blue [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes#Lamborghini Diablo|Lamborghini Diablo]] with through-axle construction for super-fast rolling on smooth surfaces in car mode. He is compatible with many "Hot Wheels" and "Matchbox"-brand racetrack sets.

===Collector's Edition===
*'''Lambor''' (World Character Convention 12 exclusive, Japan 2001)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''04'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:In 2001, the Generation 1 Sideswipe toy was re-released by [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] under his Japanese name "Lambor", as a set bundled with his [[mold]]-mate [[Red Alert (G1)/toys|Red Alert]] ("Alert" in Japan), [[exclusive]] to World Character Convention 12. His license plate decal was changed from the infringing "COUNTACH" to "CAR MACHINE".

{{anchor|NewYearSpecial}}
*'''Lambor''' (e-HOBBY exclusive, Japan 2002)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''04'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:Lambor (Sideswipe) and Alert (Red Alert) were once again re-released together in January 2002 as an [[e-HOBBY]] exclusive "New Year Special" set. This version of the figure came with an alternate [[sticker]] sheet that changed the color of several of his decals: the blue stickers on his shins and stomach became red, while blue arrows on his feet were switched to yellow. He came with a new bio card with new art by [[Hidetsugu Yoshioka]].

===The Transformers Collection===
*'''Lambor''' (Japan 2003)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''07'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:The version of Generation 1 Sideswipe previously released as an e-HOBBY exclusive, minus the extra decal sheet, was ''again'' re-released as part of ''[[The Transformers Collection]]'' "book-box" series.

===Universe (2003)===
[[File:TFU03-toy SideswipeOTFCC.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|I should've had a [[Wheeljack (Armada)|Wheeljack]] retool!]]
*'''Sideswipe''' (Deluxe, 2003)
**''Accessories:'' Left & right launchers/thrusters, 2 flame missiles

:One of several [[exclusive]]s to [[OTFCC 2003]], ''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' Sideswipe is a [[redeco]] of the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|2001 ''Robots in Disguise'']] [[Prowl (RID)#Toys|Prowl]] mold, once again transforming into a Lamborghini Diablo. A pair of add-on thrusters become arm-mounted launchers for robot mode; each one being a pressure-launch missile launcher.

:The part that connects the toy's windshield to the main body uses a red [[sticker]] rather than paint, as that part is made out of [[unpaintable plastic]]. The police lights from the original mold were removed, leaving this area bare.

:This mold was also used to make ''Universe'' [[Inferno (Universe)|Inferno]] and the ''Universe'' incarnation of [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Universe (2003)|Generation 1 Sunstreaker]].

{{note|While the toy's name was spelled "Sideswipe" (one word) on its own packaging, the cross-sell on the packaging for the OTFCC 2003 [[Shadow Striker (Universe)|Shadow Striker]]/[[Roulette (Universe)|Roulette]] two-pack spelled it "Side Swipe" (two words) instead.

*'''Lambor''' (2003)
**''Japanese ID number'': '''GTF-02'''

:''[[Smallest Transforming Transformers]]'' Lambor is a very small-scale, extensively simplified replica of the original Sideswipe toy. He has very little articulation, he has no weapons, and his vehicle mode wheels cannot roll.

:This mold was [[retool]]ed to make ''Smallest Transforming Transformers'' [[Red Alert (G1)/toys|Alert]].

===Alternators/Binaltech===
[[File:AlternatorsSide Swipe toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Just think, he was almost Tracks.]]
*'''Side Swipe''' (2003, [[2004]])
**''Alternator ID number:'' '''2'''
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''BT-02'''
**''Accessories:'' Dodge Viper Engine/gun

:The second ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' toy released, Side Swipe's [[alternate mode]] is a [[licensed vehicle alternate modes|licensed]] 1:24 scale [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes#Dodge Viper .28Chrysler.29|Dodge Viper]] (identified as an SRT-10 model by the Japanese ''Binaltech'' version) featuring opening doors, a detailed interior, and a hood that opens to reveal an engine bay holding a replica Viper V-10 engine. The vehicle mode also features movable steering and [[rubber tires]] with [[vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metalized]] wheels. His removable engine becomes a blaster.

:The main difference between Hasbro's ''Alternators'' Side Swipe and Takara's ''Binaltech'' "Lambor" releases is that the ''Binaltech'' version has die-cast metal parts for most of the car's outer body shell, with the exception of the rear end (the "backpack" [[kibble]] in robot mode), and the entire red exterior of the car is fully painted, unlike the ''Alternators'' version's flat red plastic. Furthermore, the ''Alternators'' version sports additional "blackwash" [[paint operation]]s on his chest the ''Binaltech'' version lacks.

:The Dodge Viper sculpt was originally designed to be a new body for [[Tracks (G1)/toys|Tracks]] after the first attempt to secure the Corvette license had fallen through. Eventually, though, Chevrolet had a change of mind and granted Hasbro and Takara the license for the Corvette design after all. As a result, the Viper mold was slightly redesigned, was given a new head sculpt and released as Sideswipe (or "Side Swipe") instead. This explains why, unlike most of the early Alternators toys, Side Swipe's robot mode bears little resemblance to his G1 self. The most noticeable redesign from the "Tracks" design was the vehicle mode's doors being moved from the "backpack" kibble (where they would have resembled the G1 Tracks toy's wings) to the sides of the arms, thus being the most obvious visual cue taken from the G1 Sideswipe toy. The doors are, however, still splayed out to the sides in the ''Alternators'' version's [[package art]] and can be moved to match Tracks's wing configuration, which implies that the redesign may have been done before the switch from Tracks to Sideswipe was made.

:This sculpt was [[retool]]ed to make [[Dead End (G1)#Alternators/Binaltech|Dead End]], who was then [[redeco]]ed into [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Alternators|Sunstreaker]] (although the retool was originally done with Sunstreaker in mind).

===Commemorative Series===
[[File:Sideswipebox.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb]]
*'''Side Swipe''' (Toys"R"Us exclusive, USA/Australia/Canada 2004; KB Toys exclusive, USA 2005; Asian markets exclusive, 2012)
**''Series:'' '''VIII'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:The version of Generation 1 Sideswipe previously released as part of Takara's "Transformers Collection" series, albeit with its spring-loaded launcher de-sprung [[for safety reasons]], was reissued by [[Hasbro]] under the modified name "Side Swipe" as part of their [[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]] VIII, one of the last American reissues. However, because [[Toys"R"Us]], who had carried the Commemorative Series as an [[exclusive]] line up until that point, had abruptly decided to discontinue the line, Side Swipe was only released in very low quantities in the United States; in fact, his availability at TRU was considered a myth for many years. The unsold stock was made available a year later through [[KB Toys]] stores and outlets, at half the original price. The figure ''was'', however, available at Toys"R"Us stores in Australia and Canada in 2004 in average quantities.

:In 2012, several Commemorative Series figures, among them Side Swipe, were re-released in Hasbro's Asian markets, in slightly altered packaging. Unlike most of the other figures from this batch, Side Swipe retained the "Commemorative Series VIII" label on his box; however, the background color of the "choking hazard" safety warning label was changed from red to black, the Hasbro logo was updated to the then-current version, and the "+" after the "Ages 5+" recommendation was increased in size. Oddly, even though Hasbro had started spelling the name of toys of the character as "Sideswipe" again in 2008, this release still rendered the name as "Side Swipe".

===Universe (2008)===
[[File:Universe2008 SideSwipe toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Better red than...]]
*'''Sideswipe''' (Deluxe, 2008)
**''Series'': '''Classic Series'''
**''Accessories:'' "Flare Launcher", engine supercharger intakes

:Part of the third wave of [[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|2008 ''Universe'']] Deluxe Class toys, Sideswipe is a retool/[[redeco]] of ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'' [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Universe (2008)|Sunstreaker]], transforming into a modified {{w|Lamborghini Gallardo}}. Though the car is mostly based upon the Gallardo, to avoid legal problems, it also features modified headlights and elements taken from other cars—most of them are taken from other Lamborghini models, such as a rear end that is basically a cross between a {{w|Lamborghini Murciélago|Murciélago}} and a {{w|Lamborghini Diablo|Diablo}}; however, the split side windows and the ridges on the door vents are based on a {{w|McLaren F1}}. He also comes with the same roof-mounted engine supercharger accessory as Sunstreaker. Hasbro's early plans for Sunstreaker and Sideswipe had the two as straight redecos of each other, only differing in their head sculpts besides their colors—namely, Sunstreaker would have just been Sideswipe in yellow with a different head. It was [[TakaraTomy]] designer [[Hisashi Yuki]] who suggested an alternate transformation by turning the upper body by 180 degrees (and swapping the hands to accommodate the different upper body orientation), thus providing more individual robot mode looks for the two characters that resemble their respective ''[[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1]]'' designs more.<ref name="generations2009">Interview with Hisashi Yuki in [[Transformers Generations 2009|''Transformers Generations 2009'' vol. 1]], [http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-news-rumors/223379-takaratomy-staff-interview-generations-2009-vol-1-translation.html English translation] at TFW2005.</ref>

:[[File:SunstreakerSideswipeSDCC2007.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4|''Universe'' [[Tigertrack]]. Fortunately, this didn't happen.]]
:Hasbro also originally intended the [[alternate mode]]'s supercharger to split into two halves which would then become the handgun and a spring-loaded shoulder launcher for the robot mode. On the final toy, the Flare Launcher (a redeco of Sunstreaker's Electron Pulse Blaster) can be combined with the removable supercharger engine accessory by wrapping the intakes around the gun and mounted in either of the holes on his shoulders to simulate Sideswipe's Generation 1 missile launcher. Of course, this leaves him without a hand-held weapon. The engine can also be mounted on Sideswipe's back as his [[Jet pack|rocket pack]]. Most of this is not shown in the [[instructions]], which only instruct the owner of the toy to put the gun in his hand and attach the supercharger to his back.

:Even worse, Sideswipe's instruction line art is recycled from Sunstreaker's instructions and therefore incorrectly gives him Sunstreaker's transformation and head, despite the [[stock photography|stock photo]] depicted on top of the instructions showing him with the hood as the chest and the correct Sideswipe head.<ref>[http://hasbro.com/common/instruct/83685.pdf Official Universe Sideswipe instructions PDF file on Hasbro.com]</ref> Unfortunately, the stock photo Hasbro provided to online retailers retains this incorrect transformation, and [[:File:UniSideswipeStockPhoto.jpg|throws in some additional mistakes as well]]. Oy.

:The Sunstreaker/Sideswipe sculpt was also retooled into ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' [[Punch (G1)#Timelines|Punch]], [[Breakdown (G1)#Timelines|''Generation 2'' Breakdown]], and [[Breakdown (G1)#G1TimelinesBreakdown|Generation 1 Breakdown]], as well as ''[[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (toyline)|Henkei! Henkei!]]'' [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Henkei! Henkei!|Alert]] and ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Generations|Red Alert]].

*'''Lambor''' (Deluxe, [[2008]]-[[October 23|10-23]])
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''C-09'''
**''Accessories:'' "Flare Launcher"

:The Japanese version of ''Universe'' Sideswipe has [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum metallized]] silver on his flare launcher and his spoiler, but does not come with the supercharger engine/[[Jet pack|rocket pack]] accessory that Henkei Sunstreaker and ''Universe'' Sunstreaker/Sideswipe included. This was a willful decision meant to differentiate further between him and Sunstreaker. That's right: Takara ''deliberately omitted an optional accessory'' to make the toy more "G1-accurate".<ref name="generations2009"/>

:He also has correct, personalized [[instructions]] that aren't just Sunstreaker's. Like Sunstreaker, the Japanese version's roof paint is a much closer match to the red colored plastic. The Japanese version also features a glossier black paint and the white has a yellow tint compared the white plastic used for Hasbro version. His [[license plate]] says "LAMBOR" rather than "SWIPE".

*'''Sideswipe''' ([[BotCon 2010]] customization class Deluxe)
**''Accessories'': Gun/tailpipe, engine supercharger intakes

:A ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]''-style redeco of ''Universe'' Sideswipe, ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' Sideswipe is pre-molded in new colors, which was unprecedented for the BotCon customization class exclusive (and apparently came as a surprise to [[Fun Publications]]). During the class, the mold was assembled, painted and stickered by the enrollees. Between the two classes, there were 52 participants.

:The exact brands and colors of paints utilized to paint this figure were:

:-Polly Scale #F414296 Stainless Steel (face and hub caps)
:-Polly Scale #F505020 Red RLM23 (this color is discontinued from the manufacturer)
:-Model Master Acryl #4769 Flat White (base coat under RLM 23 on hood)
:-Model Master Acryl #4768 Flat Black (tires)
:-Model Master Acryl #4721 Insignia Yellow (side markers)
:-Model Master Acryl #4637 Semi-Gloss Clear
:-Model Master Acryl #4609 British Crimson (tail lights)
:-Model Master Acryl #4746 Medium Gray (base coat under RLM 23 on upper arms, under Stainless Steel on face and hubcaps)
:-Vallejo #72023 Electric Blue (gun tip)

:In regards to the plastic mold changes, white remains white, but like the original ''Generation 2'' figure, the red and black colors are swapped. Clear green replaces the clear plastic used for the window and thighs.

:This figure uses the ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' [[Red Alert (G1)#Generations|Red Alert]] version of the mold, which includes two screw holes in the canopy (rather than one like ''Henkei! Henkei!'' Alert or none like all other versions of this mold). The samples [[Shawn D. Tessmann|Shawn Tessmann]] had on display used the original version of the mold, and lacked the screw holes. Despite the mold change, the lightbar was not included. These holes replace the slots used to mount the rocket pack in robot mode. The rocket pack can still be mounted on the gun in robot mode and in car mode though. As an unintended result of having empty screw holes over the rocket pack sockets, Sideswipe can now mount his gun inside either screw hole on the roof of his car mode.

:The unassembled figure was also given out to those who volunteered at BotCon 2010.

**''Set number'': '''31771'''
**''Pieces'': '''220'''
**''Kreons'': Sideswipe, [[Sideswipe's driver|Driver]]
**''Accessories'': Rifle

:''[[Kre-O]]'' Sideswipe can be built in either robot or G1-inspired car mode. His head sculpt is heavily based on [[#Universe (2008)|''Universe'' Sideswipe]]'s head design, but as a first for a Sideswipe toy with a primarily red body, the head is ''not'' colored black, but ''red'' like the ''Generation 2''-inspired BotCon 2010 customization class version's head ([[#Timelines|see above]]). He comes with two [[Kreon]]s: a Sideswipe based on the Generation 1 character and a generic driver.

:Like many other Kre-O sets, his stock photography shows a different robot mode construction than the final product. The most noticeable examples are his lower legs which have a much less awkward construction in the stock photos than the final product. Whether this is the photographer taking creative liberty or if the set design changed is unknown. The stock photography also depicts the set as including the [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Red Alert]] Kreon in place of Sideswipe.

: ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' Lambor transforms into a licensed Lamborghini Countach LP500S. As with other figures in the ''Masterpiece'' line, he is intended to be an accurate representation of his [[Character model|cartoon model]], and even features a Lamborghini-supervised paint scheme, such as glossy red [[Paint operation|paint]] covering the ''entirety'' of his vehicle mode panels and robot shoulders, as well as various bits of black detailing to make it accurate to the real-life vehicle. Standing at around 6¼ inches (or 15.5 centimetres) from head to toe in robot mode, he is also in [[scale]] with MP-10 [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#mp10|Optimus Prime]], and can fit inside [[Combat Deck (G1)#mp10|Prime's trailer]] in vehicle mode. In contrast to larger entries in this line, Lambor lacks [[die-cast]] parts, and his tires are cast in hard, non-rubberized plastic.

[[File:MP-13 Lambor full color.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.1|The Amazon version's additional <s>cake slicers</s> <s>screwdrivers</s> pile drivers.]]
: For accessories, he comes with his hand-held flare gun, and his non-firing missile launcher, which is jointed at the peg to allow it to pivot up and down, and can mount on either shoulder in robot mode. His launcher and gun can be combined and mounted on a self-covering peg-hole on his vehicle roof/robot back. He also comes with a pair of pile drivers, which can snap onto the ends of his forearms when either hand is flipped in, and are based on the blunt arm pistons he uses in "[[A Plague of Insecticons]]".

:If purchased in Japan through [[Amazon (website)|Amazon.com]], one additionally gets a different [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metalized]] pair of pile drivers, which are based on the jackhammer-like pistons he uses in "[[Dinobot Island, Part 2]]". If purchased in other Asian markets outside of Japan, a collector's coin is included instead. Both the coin and its wheel-shaped package identify him as Sideswipe instead of Lambor. In Malaysia, Lambor included both the additional Amazon.co.jp pile drivers and the coin. A reissue of the figure in September 2015 came with a different coin, coming in a package shaped like Sideswipe's chest/front hood.<ref>http://news.tfw2005.com/2015/08/24/masterpiece-lambor-hasbro-asia-reissue-collectors-coin-300240</ref>

:This mold was redecoed and retooled to make MP-14 [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Alert]]. Lambor's version of the mold, with Alert's face, was then redecoed into MP-12T [[Tigertrack#Masterpiece|Tigertrack]].

*'''Lambor G-2 Ver.''' ([[2014]]-[[February 22|02-22]])
**''Japanese ID number'': '''MP-12G'''
**''Accessories'': MA68S Machine Gun, GZS-3 Grenade Launcher, Broad Sword, 2 "Spike Armor" wheels
:Like the original [[#Generation 2|''Generation 2'' Sideswipe toy]], ''Masterpiece'' Lambor G-2 Ver. features mostly a straight-up swap of his red and black plastic and paint colors, resulting in a black body with red trim. His windows have been changed from translucent black to translucent red, his helmet is painted red, and he features a new, [[Derek Yaniger|Yaniger]]-licious snarling face with separately-painted [[Teeth|pearly whites]]. He comes with a [[sticker]] sheet that duplicates the original G2 toy's deco, as well as two comic-accurate ''Generaton 2'' Autobot symbol stickers of varying sizes. While the majority of the red car parts on the original Masterpiece figure are now black, portions of the robot mode that were previously red remain red. These areas include the back of his legs as well as portions of his torso.

:Instead of his original weapons, Lambor comes with new accessories based on the weapons he wielded in the Marvel G2 comic. These include a handheld machine gun and grenade launcher, a pair of articulated, non-rolling spiked wheels that can mount on his shoulders, and a sword, all of which can combine and mount onto his roof. Sadly, he does ''not'' come with a bandolier to properly carry that sword on his back, which means the sword just kind-of loosely stows there according to the [[instructions]].

:If purchased in Asian markets outside of Japan, a recolor of MP-12 Lambor's collector's coin is included. Among other minor differences, the coin is now colored silver, and its wheel-shaped package now features a ''Generation 2'' Autobot symbol at the back in place of a Generation 1-type symbol.

His arms and feet remain a very light blue / off-white color to replicate the distinction in color his [[character model]] featured between the original toy's white plastic and vac-metallic silver parts. The Autobot symbol on his chest is larger. He now has MP-14 Alert's face in place of the original MP-12's face.

:He comes with three sets of pile drivers, the two from the original MP-12, plus the third set originally included with [[Clamp Down|''Masterpiece'' Clamp Down]], redecoed in grey, which are based on their appearance in "[[S.O.S. Dinobots]]."

:When purchased in Asian markets outside of Japan, ''yet another'' (number four for those keeping track at home) collector coin is included, cast in bright silver (as opposed to the brushed appearance of the G-2 coin), which also for the first time identifies him as "Lambor". It comes mounted on a card similar to the original MP-12 and G-2 coins, however the wheel motif is based on the actual Countach wheel design, rather than the generic spoked wheel of its predecessors. Like the coin itself, the card identifies him as "Lambor."<ref>http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/the-masterpiece-cards-coins-thread.819496/page-24#post-15270213</ref>

He can convert from robot to a car in 8 steps. He has a chunkier design and is intended for a younger audience, but despite that he has an excellent range of poseability.

==Notes==
[[File:UnmadeG2SideswipeMockup.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66]]
*In recent years, a mock-up of a '''second''' ''Generation 2'' redeco of the original Sideswipe toy has surfaced. Acquired and [http://www.tf-1.com/articles/other/g2swipe_template.html photographed] by ''Transformers'' rarities-hunter Maziar "Maz" Shahsafdari, the find joins the ranks of the similarly unmade ''Generation 2'' [[Sandstorm (G2)|"desert Ramjet"]] and [http://www.tf-1.com/articles/other/g2mirage_template.html pink and green Mirage] mock-ups. [[Package art]] for the figure published in ''[[Legacy: The Art of Transformers Packaging]]'' revealed that it would have had decals of a sunrise/sunset on the vehicle mode hood and doors.
*During the 1990s, another company held the "Sideswipe" [[trademark]] in the "toys" field, even though Hasbro still released two toys using that name as part of the [[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]] line (it's unclear if this resulted in any legal repercussions for Hasbro). When Hasbro finally managed to reclaim the name for the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|''Robots in Disguise'' line]], the name was now rendered as "[[Side Swipe (RID)|Side Swipe]]", in two words, for whatever reason. The next two toys to spell "Sideswipe" as one word again were the [[OTFCC 2003]] [[exclusive]]<ref name="otfccsideswipe">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/exclusives/sideswipe/485/ OTFCC 2003 Sideswipe], named "Sideswipe" on his own packaging.</ref> and the ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' [[Side Swipe (Armada)|Super-Con]].<ref name="armadasideswipe1">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-images/toys/Armada/Autobots/Side+Swipe/side1.jpg.html ''Armada'' Side Swipe in original packaging], named "Sideswipe".</ref> However, the OTFCC figure was referred to as "Side Swipe" when featured as a [[cross-sell]] on the packaging for the OTFCC 2003 [[Shadow Striker (Universe)|Shadow Striker]]/[[Roulette (Universe)|Roulette]] two-pack,<ref name="otfccvipersisters">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/exclusives/shadow-striker/483/1/10/ Cross-sell on the OTFCC 2003 Shadow Striker/Roulette two-pack's packaging], identifying Sideswipe as "Side Swipe".</ref> whereas the "[[The Unicron Battles|Unicron Battles]]-style packaging redesign for the ''Armada'' figure saw the name changed to "Side Swipe" on the name insert as well.<ref name="armadasideswipe2">[http://www.shmax.com/product_details/835/sideswipe_with_nightbeat ''Armada'' Side Swipe in "Unicron Battles" packaging], named "Side Swipe".</ref> Hasbro ''finally'' decided to re-file the name "Sideswipe" (as one word) as a trademark in 2008, presumably because a [[Sideswipe (Movie)|character]] in the upcoming movie ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' and the accompanying [[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|toy line]] was going to sport that name, and Hasbro were using that as an opportunity to re-introduce the spelling of the name as one word. As a result, the ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'' Deluxe Class toy was the first toy to "properly" sport the name "Sideswipe" as one word. Oddly enough, in 2012, Hasbro re-filed "Side Swipe", along with several other old trademarks.<ref name="swipe2012">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-movie-toys-products-30/latest-hasbro-transformers-trademarks-tow-line-armorhide-rollbar-side-swipe-175521/ Hasbro re-files old trademarks]</ref>
*[[Fun Publications]] considered making a ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' Sideswipe (as a straight redeco of ''Combiner Wars'' Deluxe Class [[Breakdown (G1)#Generations|Breakdown]]), but ultimately shelved this idea in favor of other products.

:Originally a ''[[Diaclone]]'' "New [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes#Lamborghini Countach|Countach LP500S]]", Sideswipe transforms into... well, into that. In [[robot mode]] he is armed with a white rifle and a missile launcher that can clip onto either of his shoulders. The launcher can fire one of three included white missiles, in theory, as the springs were weakened for the US release [[for safety reasons]]. The original 1984 US release did not have the [[rubsign]] found on later releases.

:When Hasbro released the original Generation 1 toys in continental [[Europe]] through its then recently acquired subsidiary [[Milton Bradley]] in 1985, several toys, such as the Autobot Cars, were actually pre-existing stock originally intended for [[Joustra]]'s version of the ''[[Diaclone]]'' line that was acquired by Hasbro as part of an agreement with Joustra and put into MB-branded ''Transformers'' packaging. For some reason, the Sunstreaker toy (sporting its yellow Hasbro ''Transformers'' colors due to being produced during the ''Diaclone''/''Transformers'' transitional period) was released in packaging intended for his brother Sideswipe, an entirely different sculpt. The packaging even included Sideswipe's instructions and sticker sheet, neither of which were of much use for the toy. It's currently unknown whether the actual Sideswipe toy was ever sold in MB "Sideswipe" packaging at all, although considering the origin of the MB-branded Autobot Cars, it's very unlikely for this to be the case.<ref name="mbsunswipe">[http://20thcenturytoycollector.com/mb-transformers-part-6/ "MB Transformers: Part 6"] at 20th Century Toy Collector.</ref>

*'''Side Swipe''' (2003, [[2004]])
**''Alternator ID number:'' '''2'''
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''BT-02'''
**''Accessories:'' Dodge Viper Engine/gun

:The second ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' toy released, Side Swipe's [[alternate mode]] is a [[licensed vehicle alternate modes|licensed]] 1:24 scale [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes#Dodge Viper .28Chrysler.29|Dodge Viper]] (identified as an SRT-10 model by the Japanese ''Binaltech'' version) featuring opening doors, a detailed interior, and a hood that opens to reveal an engine bay holding a replica Viper V-10 engine. The vehicle mode also features movable steering and [[rubber tires]] with [[vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metalized]] wheels. His removable engine becomes a blaster.

:The main difference between Hasbro's ''Alternators'' Side Swipe and Takara's ''Binaltech'' "Lambor" releases is that the ''Binaltech'' version has die-cast metal parts for most of the car's outer body shell, with the exception of the rear end (the "backpack" [[kibble]] in robot mode), and the entire red exterior of the car is fully painted, unlike the ''Alternators'' version's flat red plastic. Furthermore, the ''Alternators'' version sports additional "blackwash" [[paint operation]]s on his chest the ''Binaltech'' version lacks.

:The Dodge Viper sculpt was originally designed to be a new body for [[Tracks (G1)/toys|Tracks]] after the first attempt to secure the Corvette license had fallen through. Eventually, though, Chevrolet had a change of mind and granted Hasbro and Takara the license for the Corvette design after all. As a result, the Viper mold was slightly redesigned, was given a new head sculpt and released as Sideswipe (or "Side Swipe") instead. This explains why, unlike most of the early Alternators toys, Side Swipe's robot mode bears little resemblance to his G1 self. The most noticeable redesign from the "Tracks" design was the vehicle mode's doors being moved from the "backpack" kibble (where they would have resembled the G1 Tracks toy's wings) to the sides of the arms, thus being the most obvious visual cue taken from the G1 Sideswipe toy. The doors are, however, still splayed out to the sides in the ''Alternators'' version's [[package art]] and can be moved to match Tracks's wing configuration, which implies that the redesign may have been done before the switch from Tracks to Sideswipe was made.

:This sculpt was [[retool]]ed to make [[Dead End (G1)#Alternators/Binaltech|Dead End]], who was then [[redeco]]ed into [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Alternators|Sunstreaker]] (although the retool was originally done with Sunstreaker in mind).

===Commemorative Series===
[[File:Sideswipebox.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb]]
*'''Side Swipe''' (Toys"R"Us exclusive, USA/Australia/Canada 2004; KB Toys exclusive, USA 2005; Asian markets exclusive, 2012)
**''Series:'' '''VIII'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:The version of Generation 1 Sideswipe previously released as part of Takara's "Transformers Collection" series, albeit with its spring-loaded launcher de-sprung [[for safety reasons]], was reissued by [[Hasbro]] under the modified name "Side Swipe" as part of their [[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]] VIII, one of the last American reissues. However, because [[Toys"R"Us]], who had carried the Commemorative Series as an [[exclusive]] line up until that point, had abruptly decided to discontinue the line, Side Swipe was only released in very low quantities in the United States; in fact, his availability at TRU was considered a myth for many years. The unsold stock was made available a year later through [[KB Toys]] stores and outlets, at half the original price. The figure ''was'', however, available at Toys"R"Us stores in Australia and Canada in 2004 in average quantities.

:In 2012, several Commemorative Series figures, among them Side Swipe, were re-released in Hasbro's Asian markets, in slightly altered packaging. Unlike most of the other figures from this batch, Side Swipe retained the "Commemorative Series VIII" label on his box; however, the background color of the "choking hazard" safety warning label was changed from red to black, the Hasbro logo was updated to the then-current version, and the "+" after the "Ages 5+" recommendation was increased in size. Oddly, even though Hasbro had started spelling the name of toys of the character as "Sideswipe" again in 2008, this release still rendered the name as "Side Swipe".

===Universe (2008)===
[[File:Universe2008 SideSwipe toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Better red than...]]
*'''Sideswipe''' (Deluxe, 2008)
**''Series'': '''Classic Series'''
**''Accessories:'' "Flare Launcher", engine supercharger intakes

:Part of the third wave of [[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|2008 ''Universe'']] Deluxe Class toys, Sideswipe is a retool/[[redeco]] of ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'' [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Universe (2008)|Sunstreaker]], transforming into a modified {{w|Lamborghini Gallardo}}. Though the car is mostly based upon the Gallardo, to avoid legal problems, it also features modified headlights and elements taken from other cars—most of them are taken from other Lamborghini models, such as a rear end that is basically a cross between a {{w|Lamborghini Murciélago|Murciélago}} and a {{w|Lamborghini Diablo|Diablo}}; however, the split side windows and the ridges on the door vents are based on a {{w|McLaren F1}}. He also comes with the same roof-mounted engine supercharger accessory as Sunstreaker. Hasbro's early plans for Sunstreaker and Sideswipe had the two as straight redecos of each other, only differing in their head sculpts besides their colors—namely, Sunstreaker would have just been Sideswipe in yellow with a different head. It was [[TakaraTomy]] designer [[Hisashi Yuki]] who suggested an alternate transformation by turning the upper body by 180 degrees (and swapping the hands to accommodate the different upper body orientation), thus providing more individual robot mode looks for the two characters that resemble their respective ''[[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1]]'' designs more.<ref name="generations2009">Interview with Hisashi Yuki in [[Transformers Generations 2009|''Transformers Generations 2009'' vol. 1]], [http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-news-rumors/223379-takaratomy-staff-interview-generations-2009-vol-1-translation.html English translation] at TFW2005.</ref>

:[[File:SunstreakerSideswipeSDCC2007.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4|''Universe'' [[Tigertrack]]. Fortunately, this didn't happen.]]
:Hasbro also originally intended the [[alternate mode]]'s supercharger to split into two halves which would then become the handgun and a spring-loaded shoulder launcher for the robot mode. On the final toy, the Flare Launcher (a redeco of Sunstreaker's Electron Pulse Blaster) can be combined with the removable supercharger engine accessory by wrapping the intakes around the gun and mounted in either of the holes on his shoulders to simulate Sideswipe's Generation 1 missile launcher. Of course, this leaves him without a hand-held weapon. The engine can also be mounted on Sideswipe's back as his [[Jet pack|rocket pack]]. Most of this is not shown in the [[instructions]], which only instruct the owner of the toy to put the gun in his hand and attach the supercharger to his back.

:Even worse, Sideswipe's instruction line art is recycled from Sunstreaker's instructions and therefore incorrectly gives him Sunstreaker's transformation and head, despite the [[stock photography|stock photo]] depicted on top of the instructions showing him with the hood as the chest and the correct Sideswipe head.<ref>[http://hasbro.com/common/instruct/83685.pdf Official Universe Sideswipe instructions PDF file on Hasbro.com]</ref> Unfortunately, the stock photo Hasbro provided to online retailers retains this incorrect transformation, and [[:File:UniSideswipeStockPhoto.jpg|throws in some additional mistakes as well]]. Oy.

:The Sunstreaker/Sideswipe sculpt was also retooled into ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' [[Punch (G1)#Timelines|Punch]], [[Breakdown (G1)#Timelines|''Generation 2'' Breakdown]], and [[Breakdown (G1)#G1TimelinesBreakdown|Generation 1 Breakdown]], as well as ''[[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (toyline)|Henkei! Henkei!]]'' [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Henkei! Henkei!|Alert]] and ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Generations|Red Alert]].

**''Japanese ID number:'' '''C-09'''
**''Accessories:'' "Flare Launcher"

:The Japanese version of ''Universe'' Sideswipe has [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum metallized]] silver on his flare launcher and his spoiler, but does not come with the supercharger engine/[[Jet pack|rocket pack]] accessory that Henkei Sunstreaker and ''Universe'' Sunstreaker/Sideswipe included. This was a willful decision meant to differentiate further between him and Sunstreaker. That's right: Takara ''deliberately omitted an optional accessory'' to make the toy more "G1-accurate".<ref name="generations2009"/>

:He also has correct, personalized [[instructions]] that aren't just Sunstreaker's. Like Sunstreaker, the Japanese version's roof paint is a much closer match to the red colored plastic. The Japanese version also features a glossier black paint and the white has a yellow tint compared the white plastic used for Hasbro version. His [[license plate]] says "LAMBOR" rather than "SWIPE".

*'''Sideswipe''' ([[BotCon 2010]] customization class Deluxe)
**''Accessories'': Gun/tailpipe, engine supercharger intakes

:A ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]''-style redeco of ''Universe'' Sideswipe, ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' Sideswipe is pre-molded in new colors, which was unprecedented for the BotCon customization class exclusive (and apparently came as a surprise to [[Fun Publications]]). During the class, the mold was assembled, painted and stickered by the enrollees. Between the two classes, there were 52 participants.

:The exact brands and colors of paints utilized to paint this figure were:

:-Polly Scale #F414296 Stainless Steel (face and hub caps)
:-Polly Scale #F505020 Red RLM23 (this color is discontinued from the manufacturer)
:-Model Master Acryl #4769 Flat White (base coat under RLM 23 on hood)
:-Model Master Acryl #4768 Flat Black (tires)
:-Model Master Acryl #4721 Insignia Yellow (side markers)
:-Model Master Acryl #4637 Semi-Gloss Clear
:-Model Master Acryl #4609 British Crimson (tail lights)
:-Model Master Acryl #4746 Medium Gray (base coat under RLM 23 on upper arms, under Stainless Steel on face and hubcaps)
:-Vallejo #72023 Electric Blue (gun tip)

:In regards to the plastic mold changes, white remains white, but like the original ''Generation 2'' figure, the red and black colors are swapped. Clear green replaces the clear plastic used for the window and thighs.

:This figure uses the ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' [[Red Alert (G1)#Generations|Red Alert]] version of the mold, which includes two screw holes in the canopy (rather than one like ''Henkei! Henkei!'' Alert or none like all other versions of this mold). The samples [[Shawn D. Tessmann|Shawn Tessmann]] had on display used the original version of the mold, and lacked the screw holes. Despite the mold change, the lightbar was not included. These holes replace the slots used to mount the rocket pack in robot mode. The rocket pack can still be mounted on the gun in robot mode and in car mode though. As an unintended result of having empty screw holes over the rocket pack sockets, Sideswipe can now mount his gun inside either screw hole on the roof of his car mode.

:The unassembled figure was also given out to those who volunteered at BotCon 2010.

**''Set number'': '''31771'''
**''Pieces'': '''220'''
**''Kreons'': Sideswipe, [[Sideswipe's driver|Driver]]
**''Accessories'': Rifle

:''[[Kre-O]]'' Sideswipe can be built in either robot or G1-inspired car mode. His head sculpt is heavily based on [[#Universe (2008)|''Universe'' Sideswipe]]'s head design, but as a first for a Sideswipe toy with a primarily red body, the head is ''not'' colored black, but ''red'' like the ''Generation 2''-inspired BotCon 2010 customization class version's head ([[#Timelines|see above]]). He comes with two [[Kreon]]s: a Sideswipe based on the Generation 1 character and a generic driver.

:Like many other Kre-O sets, his stock photography shows a different robot mode construction than the final product. The most noticeable examples are his lower legs which have a much less awkward construction in the stock photos than the final product. Whether this is the photographer taking creative liberty or if the set design changed is unknown. The stock photography also depicts the set as including the [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Red Alert]] Kreon in place of Sideswipe.

[[File:Masterpiece-MP12Lambor.jpg|thumb|upright=2.2|Lamborghini-approved awesomeness!]]
*'''Lambor''' ([[2012]]-[[October 27|10-27]])
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MP-12'''
**''Accessories:'' Missile launcher, flare gun, two pile drivers (A), two pile drivers (B, Amazon.co.jp only)
: ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' Lambor transforms into a licensed Lamborghini Countach LP500S. As with other figures in the ''Masterpiece'' line, he is intended to be an accurate representation of his [[Character model|cartoon model]], and even features a Lamborghini-supervised paint scheme, such as glossy red [[Paint operation|paint]] covering the ''entirety'' of his vehicle mode panels and robot shoulders, as well as various bits of black detailing to make it accurate to the real-life vehicle. Standing at around 6¼ inches (or 15.5 centimetres) from head to toe in robot mode, he is also in [[scale]] with MP-10 [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#mp10|Optimus Prime]], and can fit inside [[Combat Deck (G1)#mp10|Prime's trailer]] in vehicle mode. In contrast to larger entries in this line, Lambor lacks [[die-cast]] parts, and his tires are cast in hard, non-rubberized plastic.

[[File:MP-13 Lambor full color.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.1|The Amazon version's additional <s>cake slicers</s> <s>screwdrivers</s> pile drivers.]]
: For accessories, he comes with his hand-held flare gun, and his non-firing missile launcher, which is jointed at the peg to allow it to pivot up and down, and can mount on either shoulder in robot mode. His launcher and gun can be combined and mounted on a self-covering peg-hole on his vehicle roof/robot back. He also comes with a pair of pile drivers, which can snap onto the ends of his forearms when either hand is flipped in, and are based on the blunt arm pistons he uses in "[[A Plague of Insecticons]]".

:If purchased in Japan through [[Amazon (website)|Amazon.com]], one additionally gets a different [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metalized]] pair of pile drivers, which are based on the jackhammer-like pistons he uses in "[[Dinobot Island, Part 2]]". If purchased in other Asian markets outside of Japan, a collector's coin is included instead. Both the coin and its wheel-shaped package identify him as Sideswipe instead of Lambor. In Malaysia, Lambor included both the additional Amazon.co.jp pile drivers and the coin. A reissue of the figure in September 2015 came with a different coin, coming in a package shaped like Sideswipe's chest/front hood.<ref>http://news.tfw2005.com/2015/08/24/masterpiece-lambor-hasbro-asia-reissue-collectors-coin-300240</ref>

:This mold was redecoed and retooled to make MP-14 [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Alert]]. Lambor's version of the mold, with Alert's face, was then redecoed into MP-12T [[Tigertrack#Masterpiece|Tigertrack]].

**''Japanese ID number'': '''MP-12G'''
**''Accessories'': MA68S Machine Gun, GZS-3 Grenade Launcher, Broad Sword, 2 "Spike Armor" wheels
:Like the original [[#Generation 2|''Generation 2'' Sideswipe toy]], ''Masterpiece'' Lambor G-2 Ver. features mostly a straight-up swap of his red and black plastic and paint colors, resulting in a black body with red trim. His windows have been changed from translucent black to translucent red, his helmet is painted red, and he features a new, [[Derek Yaniger|Yaniger]]-licious snarling face with separately-painted [[Teeth|pearly whites]]. He comes with a [[sticker]] sheet that duplicates the original G2 toy's deco, as well as two comic-accurate ''Generaton 2'' Autobot symbol stickers of varying sizes. While the majority of the red car parts on the original Masterpiece figure are now black, portions of the robot mode that were previously red remain red. These areas include the back of his legs as well as portions of his torso.

:Instead of his original weapons, Lambor comes with new accessories based on the weapons he wielded in the Marvel G2 comic. These include a handheld machine gun and grenade launcher, a pair of articulated, non-rolling spiked wheels that can mount on his shoulders, and a sword, all of which can combine and mount onto his roof. Sadly, he does ''not'' come with a bandolier to properly carry that sword on his back, which means the sword just kind-of loosely stows there according to the [[instructions]].

:If purchased in Asian markets outside of Japan, a recolor of MP-12 Lambor's collector's coin is included. Among other minor differences, the coin is now colored silver, and its wheel-shaped package now features a ''Generation 2'' Autobot symbol at the back in place of a Generation 1-type symbol.

His arms and feet remain a very light blue / off-white color to replicate the distinction in color his [[character model]] featured between the original toy's white plastic and vac-metallic silver parts. The Autobot symbol on his chest is larger. He now has MP-14 Alert's face in place of the original MP-12's face.

:He comes with three sets of pile drivers, the two from the original MP-12, plus the third set originally included with [[Clamp Down|''Masterpiece'' Clamp Down]], redecoed in grey, which are based on their appearance in "[[S.O.S. Dinobots]]."

:When purchased in Asian markets outside of Japan, ''yet another'' (number four for those keeping track at home) collector coin is included, cast in bright silver (as opposed to the brushed appearance of the G-2 coin), which also for the first time identifies him as "Lambor". It comes mounted on a card similar to the original MP-12 and G-2 coins, however the wheel motif is based on the actual Countach wheel design, rather than the generic spoked wheel of its predecessors. Like the coin itself, the card identifies him as "Lambor."<ref>http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/the-masterpiece-cards-coins-thread.819496/page-24#post-15270213</ref>

[[File:UnmadeG2SideswipeMockup.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66]]
*In recent years, a mock-up of a '''second''' ''Generation 2'' redeco of the original Sideswipe toy has surfaced. Acquired and [http://www.tf-1.com/articles/other/g2swipe_template.html photographed] by ''Transformers'' rarities-hunter Maziar "Maz" Shahsafdari, the find joins the ranks of the similarly unmade ''Generation 2'' [[Sandstorm (G2)|"desert Ramjet"]] and [http://www.tf-1.com/articles/other/g2mirage_template.html pink and green Mirage] mock-ups. [[Package art]] for the figure published in ''[[Legacy: The Art of Transformers Packaging]]'' revealed that it would have had decals of a sunrise/sunset on the vehicle mode hood and doors.
*During the 1990s, another company held the "Sideswipe" [[trademark]] in the "toys" field, even though Hasbro still released two toys using that name as part of the [[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]] line (it's unclear if this resulted in any legal repercussions for Hasbro). When Hasbro finally managed to reclaim the name for the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|''Robots in Disguise'' line]], the name was now rendered as "[[Side Swipe (RID)|Side Swipe]]", in two words, for whatever reason. The next two toys to spell "Sideswipe" as one word again were the [[OTFCC 2003]] [[exclusive]]<ref name="otfccsideswipe">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/exclusives/sideswipe/485/ OTFCC 2003 Sideswipe], named "Sideswipe" on his own packaging.</ref> and the ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' [[Side Swipe (Armada)|Super-Con]].<ref name="armadasideswipe1">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-images/toys/Armada/Autobots/Side+Swipe/side1.jpg.html ''Armada'' Side Swipe in original packaging], named "Sideswipe".</ref> However, the OTFCC figure was referred to as "Side Swipe" when featured as a [[cross-sell]] on the packaging for the OTFCC 2003 [[Shadow Striker (Universe)|Shadow Striker]]/[[Roulette (Universe)|Roulette]] two-pack,<ref name="otfccvipersisters">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/exclusives/shadow-striker/483/1/10/ Cross-sell on the OTFCC 2003 Shadow Striker/Roulette two-pack's packaging], identifying Sideswipe as "Side Swipe".</ref> whereas the "[[The Unicron Battles|Unicron Battles]]-style packaging redesign for the ''Armada'' figure saw the name changed to "Side Swipe" on the name insert as well.<ref name="armadasideswipe2">[http://www.shmax.com/product_details/835/sideswipe_with_nightbeat ''Armada'' Side Swipe in "Unicron Battles" packaging], named "Side Swipe".</ref> Hasbro ''finally'' decided to re-file the name "Sideswipe" (as one word) as a trademark in 2008, presumably because a [[Sideswipe (Movie)|character]] in the upcoming movie ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' and the accompanying [[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|toy line]] was going to sport that name, and Hasbro were using that as an opportunity to re-introduce the spelling of the name as one word. As a result, the ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'' Deluxe Class toy was the first toy to "properly" sport the name "Sideswipe" as one word. Oddly enough, in 2012, Hasbro re-filed "Side Swipe", along with several other old trademarks.<ref name="swipe2012">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-movie-toys-products-30/latest-hasbro-transformers-trademarks-tow-line-armorhide-rollbar-side-swipe-175521/ Hasbro re-files old trademarks]</ref>
*[[Fun Publications]] considered making a ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' Sideswipe (as a straight redeco of ''Combiner Wars'' Deluxe Class [[Breakdown (G1)#Generations|Breakdown]]), but ultimately shelved this idea in favor of other products.

*'''Sideswipe''' ([[Autobot Cars]], [[1984]]/[[1985]], [[1991]], [[2001]]/[[2002]]/[[2003]])
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''04''', '''TFC-07'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:Originally a ''[[Diaclone]]'' "New [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes#Lamborghini Countach|Countach LP500S]]", Sideswipe transforms into... well, into that. In [[robot mode]] he is armed with a white rifle and a missile launcher that can clip onto either of his shoulders. The launcher can fire one of three included white missiles, in theory, as the springs were weakened for the US release [[for safety reasons]]. The original 1984 US release did not have the [[rubsign]] found on later releases.

:When Hasbro released the original Generation 1 toys in continental [[Europe]] through its then recently acquired subsidiary [[Milton Bradley]] in 1985, several toys, such as the Autobot Cars, were actually pre-existing stock originally intended for [[Joustra]]'s version of the ''[[Diaclone]]'' line that was acquired by Hasbro as part of an agreement with Joustra and put into MB-branded ''Transformers'' packaging. For some reason, the Sunstreaker toy (sporting its yellow Hasbro ''Transformers'' colors due to being produced during the ''Diaclone''/''Transformers'' transitional period) was released in packaging intended for his brother Sideswipe, an entirely different sculpt. The packaging even included Sideswipe's instructions and sticker sheet, neither of which were of much use for the toy. It's currently unknown whether the actual Sideswipe toy was ever sold in MB "Sideswipe" packaging at all, although considering the origin of the MB-branded Autobot Cars, it's very unlikely for this to be the case.<ref name="mbsunswipe">[http://20thcenturytoycollector.com/mb-transformers-part-6/ "MB Transformers: Part 6"] at 20th Century Toy Collector.</ref>

:This sculpt was also used to make [[Red Alert (G1)/toys|Red Alert]], [[Clamp Down]], [[Deep Cover]] and [[Tigertrack]].

*'''Sideswipe with Vanguard''' ([[Action Master]], 1991)
**''Accessories:'' "Photon laser" rifle

:A non-transforming action figure that combines elements from both his original toy and his [[Character model|animation model]], [[Action Master]] Sideswipe is compatible with any other Action Master weapon or vehicle. His [[Action Master partner|partner]]-unit [[Vanguard]] forms a backpack and battle helmet, and complements Sideswipe's color scheme quite well.

:Action Master Sideswipe was only available in [[The Transformers (European toyline)|European]] (and certain Australian) markets.

**''Accessories:'' Gun, missile launcher, 1 missile

:Part of the first assortment of Autobot cars, Sideswipe's original toy had his colors re-arranged to a black car mode with red and white robot parts, plus new [[neon]] green "racing" decals were added to the mix. His original rocket launcher was removed, and replaced with a large spring-loaded launcher that could be hand-held or mounted on his [[retool]]ed car mode roof.

:His new spring-loaded missile launcher was taken from [http://www.yojoe.com/action/91/snowserpent2.shtml Snow Serpent] from the ''[[G.I. Joe (team)|G.I. Joe]]'' toyline.

He is compatible with many "Hot Wheels" and "Matchbox"-brand racetrack sets.

===Collector's Edition===
*'''Lambor''' (World Character Convention 12 exclusive, Japan 2001)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''04'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:In 2001, the Generation 1 Sideswipe toy was re-released by [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] under his Japanese name "Lambor", as a set bundled with his [[mold]]-mate [[Red Alert (G1)/toys|Red Alert]] ("Alert" in Japan), [[exclusive]] to World Character Convention 12. His license plate decal was changed from the infringing "COUNTACH" to "CAR MACHINE".

{{anchor|NewYearSpecial}}
*'''Lambor''' (e-HOBBY exclusive, Japan 2002)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''04'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:Lambor (Sideswipe) and Alert (Red Alert) were once again re-released together in January 2002 as an [[e-HOBBY]] exclusive "New Year Special" set. This version of the figure came with an alternate [[sticker]] sheet that changed the color of several of his decals: the blue stickers on his shins and stomach became red, while blue arrows on his feet were switched to yellow. He came with a new bio card with new art by [[Hidetsugu Yoshioka]].

===The Transformers Collection===
*'''Lambor''' (Japan 2003)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''07'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:The version of Generation 1 Sideswipe previously released as an e-HOBBY exclusive, minus the extra decal sheet, was ''again'' re-released as part of ''[[The Transformers Collection]]'' "book-box" series.

===Universe (2003)===

*'''Sideswipe''' (Deluxe, 2003)
**''Accessories:'' Left & right launchers/thrusters, 2 flame missiles

:One of several [[exclusive]]s to [[OTFCC 2003]], ''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' Sideswipe is a [[redeco]] of the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|2001 ''Robots in Disguise'']] [[Prowl (RID)#Toys|Prowl]] mold, once again transforming into a Lamborghini Diablo. A pair of add-on thrusters become arm-mounted launchers for robot mode; each one being a pressure-launch missile launcher.

:The part that connects the toy's windshield to the main body uses a red [[sticker]] rather than paint, as that part is made out of [[unpaintable plastic]]. The police lights from the original mold were removed, leaving this area bare.

:This mold was also used to make ''Universe'' [[Inferno (Universe)|Inferno]] and the ''Universe'' incarnation of [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Universe (2003)|Generation 1 Sunstreaker]].

{{note|While the toy's name was spelled "Sideswipe" (one word) on its own packaging, the cross-sell on the packaging for the OTFCC 2003 [[Shadow Striker (Universe)|Shadow Striker]]/[[Roulette (Universe)|Roulette]] two-pack spelled it "Side Swipe" (two words) instead.

*'''Lambor''' (2003)
**''Japanese ID number'': '''GTF-02'''

:''[[Smallest Transforming Transformers]]'' Lambor is a very small-scale, extensively simplified replica of the original Sideswipe toy. He has very little articulation, he has no weapons, and his vehicle mode wheels cannot roll.

:This mold was [[retool]]ed to make ''Smallest Transforming Transformers'' [[Red Alert (G1)/toys|Alert]].

===Alternators/Binaltech===
[[File:AlternatorsSide Swipe toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Just think, he was almost Tracks.]]
*'''Side Swipe''' (2003, [[2004]])
**''Alternator ID number:'' '''2'''
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''BT-02'''
**''Accessories:'' Dodge Viper Engine/gun

:The second ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' toy released, Side Swipe's [[alternate mode]] is a [[licensed vehicle alternate modes|licensed]] 1:24 scale [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes#Dodge Viper .28Chrysler.29|Dodge Viper]] (identified as an SRT-10 model by the Japanese ''Binaltech'' version) featuring opening doors, a detailed interior, and a hood that opens to reveal an engine bay holding a replica Viper V-10 engine. The vehicle mode also features movable steering and [[rubber tires]] with [[vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metalized]] wheels. His removable engine becomes a blaster.

:The main difference between Hasbro's ''Alternators'' Side Swipe and Takara's ''Binaltech'' "Lambor" releases is that the ''Binaltech'' version has die-cast metal parts for most of the car's outer body shell, with the exception of the rear end (the "backpack" [[kibble]] in robot mode), and the entire red exterior of the car is fully painted, unlike the ''Alternators'' version's flat red plastic. Furthermore, the ''Alternators'' version sports additional "blackwash" [[paint operation]]s on his chest the ''Binaltech'' version lacks.

:The Dodge Viper sculpt was originally designed to be a new body for [[Tracks (G1)/toys|Tracks]] after the first attempt to secure the Corvette license had fallen through. Eventually, though, Chevrolet had a change of mind and granted Hasbro and Takara the license for the Corvette design after all. As a result, the Viper mold was slightly redesigned, was given a new head sculpt and released as Sideswipe (or "Side Swipe") instead. This explains why, unlike most of the early Alternators toys, Side Swipe's robot mode bears little resemblance to his G1 self. The most noticeable redesign from the "Tracks" design was the vehicle mode's doors being moved from the "backpack" kibble (where they would have resembled the G1 Tracks toy's wings) to the sides of the arms, thus being the most obvious visual cue taken from the G1 Sideswipe toy. The doors are, however, still splayed out to the sides in the ''Alternators'' version's [[package art]] and can be moved to match Tracks's wing configuration, which implies that the redesign may have been done before the switch from Tracks to Sideswipe was made.

:This sculpt was [[retool]]ed to make [[Dead End (G1)#Alternators/Binaltech|Dead End]], who was then [[redeco]]ed into [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Alternators|Sunstreaker]] (although the retool was originally done with Sunstreaker in mind).

===Commemorative Series===
[[File:Sideswipebox.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb]]
*'''Side Swipe''' (Toys"R"Us exclusive, USA/Australia/Canada 2004; KB Toys exclusive, USA 2005; Asian markets exclusive, 2012)
**''Series:'' '''VIII'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser gun", rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:The version of Generation 1 Sideswipe previously released as part of Takara's "Transformers Collection" series, albeit with its spring-loaded launcher de-sprung [[for safety reasons]], was reissued by [[Hasbro]] under the modified name "Side Swipe" as part of their [[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]] VIII, one of the last American reissues. However, because [[Toys"R"Us]], who had carried the Commemorative Series as an [[exclusive]] line up until that point, had abruptly decided to discontinue the line, Side Swipe was only released in very low quantities in the United States; in fact, his availability at TRU was considered a myth for many years. The unsold stock was made available a year later through [[KB Toys]] stores and outlets, at half the original price. The figure ''was'', however, available at Toys"R"Us stores in Australia and Canada in 2004 in average quantities.

:In 2012, several Commemorative Series figures, among them Side Swipe, were re-released in Hasbro's Asian markets, in slightly altered packaging. Unlike most of the other figures from this batch, Side Swipe retained the "Commemorative Series VIII" label on his box; however, the background color of the "choking hazard" safety warning label was changed from red to black, the Hasbro logo was updated to the then-current version, and the "+" after the "Ages 5+" recommendation was increased in size. Oddly, even though Hasbro had started spelling the name of toys of the character as "Sideswipe" again in 2008, this release still rendered the name as "Side Swipe".

===Universe (2008)===
[[File:Universe2008 SideSwipe toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Better red than...]]
*'''Sideswipe''' (Deluxe, 2008)
**''Series'': '''Classic Series'''
**''Accessories:'' "Flare Launcher", engine supercharger intakes

:Part of the third wave of [[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|2008 ''Universe'']] Deluxe Class toys, Sideswipe is a retool/[[redeco]] of ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'' [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Universe (2008)|Sunstreaker]], transforming into a modified {{w|Lamborghini Gallardo}}. Though the car is mostly based upon the Gallardo, to avoid legal problems, it also features modified headlights and elements taken from other cars—most of them are taken from other Lamborghini models, such as a rear end that is basically a cross between a {{w|Lamborghini Murciélago|Murciélago}} and a {{w|Lamborghini Diablo|Diablo}}; however, the split side windows and the ridges on the door vents are based on a {{w|McLaren F1}}. He also comes with the same roof-mounted engine supercharger accessory as Sunstreaker. Hasbro's early plans for Sunstreaker and Sideswipe had the two as straight redecos of each other, only differing in their head sculpts besides their colors—namely, Sunstreaker would have just been Sideswipe in yellow with a different head. It was [[TakaraTomy]] designer [[Hisashi Yuki]] who suggested an alternate transformation by turning the upper body by 180 degrees (and swapping the hands to accommodate the different upper body orientation), thus providing more individual robot mode looks for the two characters that resemble their respective ''[[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1]]'' designs more.<ref name="generations2009">Interview with Hisashi Yuki in [[Transformers Generations 2009|''Transformers Generations 2009'' vol. 1]], [http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-news-rumors/223379-takaratomy-staff-interview-generations-2009-vol-1-translation.html English translation] at TFW2005.</ref>

:[[File:SunstreakerSideswipeSDCC2007.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4|''Universe'' [[Tigertrack]]. Fortunately, this didn't happen.]]
:Hasbro also originally intended the [[alternate mode]]'s supercharger to split into two halves which would then become the handgun and a spring-loaded shoulder launcher for the robot mode. On the final toy, the Flare Launcher (a redeco of Sunstreaker's Electron Pulse Blaster) can be combined with the removable supercharger engine accessory by wrapping the intakes around the gun and mounted in either of the holes on his shoulders to simulate Sideswipe's Generation 1 missile launcher. Of course, this leaves him without a hand-held weapon. The engine can also be mounted on Sideswipe's back as his [[Jet pack|rocket pack]]. Most of this is not shown in the [[instructions]], which only instruct the owner of the toy to put the gun in his hand and attach the supercharger to his back.

:Even worse, Sideswipe's instruction line art is recycled from Sunstreaker's instructions and therefore incorrectly gives him Sunstreaker's transformation and head, despite the [[stock photography|stock photo]] depicted on top of the instructions showing him with the hood as the chest and the correct Sideswipe head.<ref>[http://hasbro.com/common/instruct/83685.pdf Official Universe Sideswipe instructions PDF file on Hasbro.com]</ref> Unfortunately, the stock photo Hasbro provided to online retailers retains this incorrect transformation, and [[:File:UniSideswipeStockPhoto.jpg|throws in some additional mistakes as well]]. Oy.

:The Sunstreaker/Sideswipe sculpt was also retooled into ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' [[Punch (G1)#Timelines|Punch]], [[Breakdown (G1)#Timelines|''Generation 2'' Breakdown]], and [[Breakdown (G1)#G1TimelinesBreakdown|Generation 1 Breakdown]], as well as ''[[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (toyline)|Henkei! Henkei!]]'' [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Henkei! Henkei!|Alert]] and ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Generations|Red Alert]].

*'''Lambor''' (Deluxe, [[2008]]-[[October 23|10-23]])
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''C-09'''
**''Accessories:'' "Flare Launcher"

:The Japanese version of ''Universe'' Sideswipe has [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum metallized]] silver on his flare launcher and his spoiler, but does not come with the supercharger engine/[[Jet pack|rocket pack]] accessory that Henkei Sunstreaker and ''Universe'' Sunstreaker/Sideswipe included. This was a willful decision meant to differentiate further between him and Sunstreaker. That's right: Takara ''deliberately omitted an optional accessory'' to make the toy more "G1-accurate".<ref name="generations2009"/>

:He also has correct, personalized [[instructions]] that aren't just Sunstreaker's. Like Sunstreaker, the Japanese version's roof paint is a much closer match to the red colored plastic. The Japanese version also features a glossier black paint and the white has a yellow tint compared the white plastic used for Hasbro version. His [[license plate]] says "LAMBOR" rather than "SWIPE".

*'''Sideswipe''' ([[BotCon 2010]] customization class Deluxe)
**''Accessories'': Gun/tailpipe, engine supercharger intakes

:A ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]''-style redeco of ''Universe'' Sideswipe, ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' Sideswipe is pre-molded in new colors, which was unprecedented for the BotCon customization class exclusive (and apparently came as a surprise to [[Fun Publications]]). During the class, the mold was assembled, painted and stickered by the enrollees. Between the two classes, there were 52 participants.

:The exact brands and colors of paints utilized to paint this figure were:

:-Polly Scale #F414296 Stainless Steel (face and hub caps)
:-Polly Scale #F505020 Red RLM23 (this color is discontinued from the manufacturer)
:-Model Master Acryl #4769 Flat White (base coat under RLM 23 on hood)
:-Model Master Acryl #4768 Flat Black (tires)
:-Model Master Acryl #4721 Insignia Yellow (side markers)
:-Model Master Acryl #4637 Semi-Gloss Clear
:-Model Master Acryl #4609 British Crimson (tail lights)
:-Model Master Acryl #4746 Medium Gray (base coat under RLM 23 on upper arms, under Stainless Steel on face and hubcaps)
:-Vallejo #72023 Electric Blue (gun tip)

:In regards to the plastic mold changes, white remains white, but like the original ''Generation 2'' figure, the red and black colors are swapped. Clear green replaces the clear plastic used for the window and thighs.

:This figure uses the ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' [[Red Alert (G1)#Generations|Red Alert]] version of the mold, which includes two screw holes in the canopy (rather than one like ''Henkei! Henkei!'' Alert or none like all other versions of this mold). The samples [[Shawn D. Tessmann|Shawn Tessmann]] had on display used the original version of the mold, and lacked the screw holes. Despite the mold change, the lightbar was not included. These holes replace the slots used to mount the rocket pack in robot mode. The rocket pack can still be mounted on the gun in robot mode and in car mode though. As an unintended result of having empty screw holes over the rocket pack sockets, Sideswipe can now mount his gun inside either screw hole on the roof of his car mode.

:The unassembled figure was also given out to those who volunteered at BotCon 2010.

**''Set number'': '''31771'''
**''Pieces'': '''220'''
**''Kreons'': Sideswipe, [[Sideswipe's driver|Driver]]
**''Accessories'': Rifle

:''[[Kre-O]]'' Sideswipe can be built in either robot or G1-inspired car mode. His head sculpt is heavily based on [[#Universe (2008)|''Universe'' Sideswipe]]'s head design, but as a first for a Sideswipe toy with a primarily red body, the head is ''not'' colored black, but ''red'' like the ''Generation 2''-inspired BotCon 2010 customization class version's head ([[#Timelines|see above]]). He comes with two [[Kreon]]s: a Sideswipe based on the Generation 1 character and a generic driver.

:Like many other Kre-O sets, his stock photography shows a different robot mode construction than the final product. The most noticeable examples are his lower legs which have a much less awkward construction in the stock photos than the final product. Whether this is the photographer taking creative liberty or if the set design changed is unknown. The stock photography also depicts the set as including the [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Red Alert]] Kreon in place of Sideswipe.

As with other figures in the ''Masterpiece'' line, he is intended to be an accurate representation of his [[Character model|cartoon model]], and even features a Lamborghini-supervised paint scheme, such as glossy red [[Paint operation|paint]] covering the ''entirety'' of his vehicle mode panels and robot shoulders, as well as various bits of black detailing to make it accurate to the real-life vehicle. Standing at around 6¼ inches (or 15.5 centimetres) from head to toe in robot mode, he is also in [[scale]] with MP-10 [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#mp10|Optimus Prime]], and can fit inside [[Combat Deck (G1)#mp10|Prime's trailer]] in vehicle mode. In contrast to larger entries in this line, Lambor lacks [[die-cast]] parts, and his tires are cast in hard, non-rubberized plastic.

[[File:MP-13 Lambor full color.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.1|The Amazon version's additional <s>cake slicers</s> <s>screwdrivers</s> pile drivers.]]
: For accessories, he comes with his hand-held flare gun, and his non-firing missile launcher, which is jointed at the peg to allow it to pivot up and down, and can mount on either shoulder in robot mode. His launcher and gun can be combined and mounted on a self-covering peg-hole on his vehicle roof/robot back. He also comes with a pair of pile drivers, which can snap onto the ends of his forearms when either hand is flipped in, and are based on the blunt arm pistons he uses in "[[A Plague of Insecticons]]".

:If purchased in Japan through [[Amazon (website)|Amazon.com]], one additionally gets a different [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metalized]] pair of pile drivers, which are based on the jackhammer-like pistons he uses in "[[Dinobot Island, Part 2]]". If purchased in other Asian markets outside of Japan, a collector's coin is included instead. Both the coin and its wheel-shaped package identify him as Sideswipe instead of Lambor. In Malaysia, Lambor included both the additional Amazon.co.jp pile drivers and the coin. A reissue of the figure in September 2015 came with a different coin, coming in a package shaped like Sideswipe's chest/front hood.<ref>http://news.tfw2005.com/2015/08/24/masterpiece-lambor-hasbro-asia-reissue-collectors-coin-300240</ref>

:This mold was redecoed and retooled to make MP-14 [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Alert]]. Lambor's version of the mold, with Alert's face, was then redecoed into MP-12T [[Tigertrack#Masterpiece|Tigertrack]].

*'''Lambor G-2 Ver.''' ([[2014]]-[[February 22|02-22]])
**''Japanese ID number'': '''MP-12G'''
**''Accessories'': MA68S Machine Gun, GZS-3 Grenade Launcher, Broad Sword, 2 "Spike Armor" wheels
:Like the original [[#Generation 2|''Generation 2'' Sideswipe toy]], ''Masterpiece'' Lambor G-2 Ver. features mostly a straight-up swap of his red and black plastic and paint colors, resulting in a black body with red trim. His windows have been changed from translucent black to translucent red, his helmet is painted red, and he features a new, [[Derek Yaniger|Yaniger]]-licious snarling face with separately-painted [[Teeth|pearly whites]]. He comes with a [[sticker]] sheet that duplicates the original G2 toy's deco, as well as two comic-accurate ''Generaton 2'' Autobot symbol stickers of varying sizes. While the majority of the red car parts on the original Masterpiece figure are now black, portions of the robot mode that were previously red remain red. These areas include the back of his legs as well as portions of his torso.

:Instead of his original weapons, Lambor comes with new accessories based on the weapons he wielded in the Marvel G2 comic. These include a handheld machine gun and grenade launcher, a pair of articulated, non-rolling spiked wheels that can mount on his shoulders, and a sword, all of which can combine and mount onto his roof. Sadly, he does ''not'' come with a bandolier to properly carry that sword on his back, which means the sword just kind-of loosely stows there according to the [[instructions]].

:If purchased in Asian markets outside of Japan, a recolor of MP-12 Lambor's collector's coin is included. Among other minor differences, the coin is now colored silver, and its wheel-shaped package now features a ''Generation 2'' Autobot symbol at the back in place of a Generation 1-type symbol.

:Issued to coincide with the release of ''Masterpiece'' [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Sunstreaker]] and continuing the Masterpiece+ sideline, started with ''Masterpiece'' [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#MasterpieceAnimeColor|Alert Anime Color Edition]], Lambor Anime Color Edition is a redeco and retool of Lambor in more anime accurate colors—including bright white paint on the thighs and the ridges by his head. His arms and feet remain a very light blue / off-white color to replicate the distinction in color his [[character model]] featured between the original toy's white plastic and vac-metallic silver parts. The Autobot symbol on his chest is larger. He now has MP-14 Alert's face in place of the original MP-12's face.

:He comes with three sets of pile drivers, the two from the original MP-12, plus the third set originally included with [[Clamp Down|''Masterpiece'' Clamp Down]], redecoed in grey, which are based on their appearance in "[[S.O.S. Dinobots]]."

:When purchased in Asian markets outside of Japan, ''yet another'' (number four for those keeping track at home) collector coin is included, cast in bright silver (as opposed to the brushed appearance of the G-2 coin), which also for the first time identifies him as "Lambor". It comes mounted on a card similar to the original MP-12 and G-2 coins, however the wheel motif is based on the actual Countach wheel design, rather than the generic spoked wheel of its predecessors. Like the coin itself, the card identifies him as "Lambor."<ref>http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/the-masterpiece-cards-coins-thread.819496/page-24#post-15270213</ref>

:Released as part of a third wave of [[Transformers: Generations#PrimeWarsTrilogyAsian|''Generations'' Cyber Battalion]] figures, Sideswipe is a heavy retool of Cyber Battalion Prowl, featuring a new head, chest, forearms, and feet. He can convert from robot to a car in 8 steps. He has a chunkier design and is intended for a younger audience, but despite that he has an excellent range of poseability. The transformation seems to partially be taken from the ''Reveal the Shield'' Legends Class [[Prowl (G1)/toys#Transformers (2010)|Prowl]] figure.

Sideswipe also features "battle damage" paint applications on his waist, shins, and feet, as well as multiple hardpoints all over himself and his weapons to accommodate "Fire Blasts" from the [[Battle Master]]s assortment, which can be used to simulate blaster fire or explosions.

==Notes==
[[File:UnmadeG2SideswipeMockup.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66]]
*In recent years, a mock-up of a '''second''' ''Generation 2'' redeco of the original Sideswipe toy has surfaced. Acquired and [http://www.tf-1.com/articles/other/g2swipe_template.html photographed] by ''Transformers'' rarities-hunter Maziar "Maz" Shahsafdari, the find joins the ranks of the similarly unmade ''Generation 2'' [[Sandstorm (G2)|"desert Ramjet"]] and [http://www.tf-1.com/articles/other/g2mirage_template.html pink and green Mirage] mock-ups. [[Package art]] for the figure published in ''[[Legacy: The Art of Transformers Packaging]]'' revealed that it would have had decals of a sunrise/sunset on the vehicle mode hood and doors.
*During the 1990s, another company held the "Sideswipe" [[trademark]] in the "toys" field, even though Hasbro still released two toys using that name as part of the [[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]] line (it's unclear if this resulted in any legal repercussions for Hasbro). When Hasbro finally managed to reclaim the name for the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|''Robots in Disguise'' line]], the name was now rendered as "[[Side Swipe (RID)|Side Swipe]]", in two words, for whatever reason. The next two toys to spell "Sideswipe" as one word again were the [[OTFCC 2003]] [[exclusive]]<ref name="otfccsideswipe">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/exclusives/sideswipe/485/ OTFCC 2003 Sideswipe], named "Sideswipe" on his own packaging.</ref> and the ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' [[Side Swipe (Armada)|Super-Con]].<ref name="armadasideswipe1">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-images/toys/Armada/Autobots/Side+Swipe/side1.jpg.html ''Armada'' Side Swipe in original packaging], named "Sideswipe".</ref> However, the OTFCC figure was referred to as "Side Swipe" when featured as a [[cross-sell]] on the packaging for the OTFCC 2003 [[Shadow Striker (Universe)|Shadow Striker]]/[[Roulette (Universe)|Roulette]] two-pack,<ref name="otfccvipersisters">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/exclusives/shadow-striker/483/1/10/ Cross-sell on the OTFCC 2003 Shadow Striker/Roulette two-pack's packaging], identifying Sideswipe as "Side Swipe".</ref> whereas the "[[The Unicron Battles|Unicron Battles]]-style packaging redesign for the ''Armada'' figure saw the name changed to "Side Swipe" on the name insert as well.<ref name="armadasideswipe2">[http://www.shmax.com/product_details/835/sideswipe_with_nightbeat ''Armada'' Side Swipe in "Unicron Battles" packaging], named "Side Swipe".</ref> Hasbro ''finally'' decided to re-file the name "Sideswipe" (as one word) as a trademark in 2008, presumably because a [[Sideswipe (Movie)|character]] in the upcoming movie ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' and the accompanying [[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|toy line]] was going to sport that name, and Hasbro were using that as an opportunity to re-introduce the spelling of the name as one word. As a result, the ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'' Deluxe Class toy was the first toy to "properly" sport the name "Sideswipe" as one word. Oddly enough, in 2012, Hasbro re-filed "Side Swipe", along with several other old trademarks.<ref name="swipe2012">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-movie-toys-products-30/latest-hasbro-transformers-trademarks-tow-line-armorhide-rollbar-side-swipe-175521/ Hasbro re-files old trademarks]</ref>
*[[Fun Publications]] considered making a ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' Sideswipe (as a straight redeco of ''Combiner Wars'' Deluxe Class [[Breakdown (G1)#Generations|Breakdown]]), but ultimately shelved this idea in favor of other products.

War for Cybertron: Siege

{{nav-WarForCybertronSiege}}

[[File:WFC-Siege-Poster-ArkLaunchAutobots.jpg|thumb|250px|The stege begins.]]

'''''War For Cybertron: Siege''''' is a [[subline imprint]] of the ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' toyline, and the first portion of the ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy]]''.

First revealed in mid-[[2018]] at [[San Diego Comic-Con]], ''War for Cybertron: Siege'', in keeping with the installments of the ''[[Prime Wars Trilogy]]'', features a line-wide [[gimmick]]: weaponry. Most Deluxe, Voyager, and Leader Class figures each come with at least one or two weapons that can transform, combine, and/or be placed into any [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]] posts, [[5 mm post]]s littered all over their bodies, essentially an updated version of the [[Powerlinx]] system. Another line-wide feature is battle-damaged paintjobs on Deluxe-and-up figures to fit with the gritty "war" aspect. Returning to this toyline are [[Micromaster]]s, which are bundled in two packs, replacing the Legends Class of the last half-decade, and are now able to combine into large weapons as well as transform into their vehicle form. This size class is also used for Soundwave's minions, who can turn into cassettes or be used as a shield with fold-out pegs. Replacing the [[Prime Master]]s from [[Power of the Primes (toyline)|the last toyline]] are "[[Battle Master]]s", small [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmaster]]-type figures that can combine with other weapons and figures. They include additional "Fire Blast" effect pieces that can be placed onto other weapons included with other size classes, as well as hardpoints on the figures themselves to simulate being 'shot' or on the back of vehicles to simulate "rocket boosters" or "speed", depending on the effect part. Each effect part attaches via a 3 mm hole, or in most cases, 5 mm posts too. Some Deluxe Class figures are classified as "Deluxe Weaponizers," which can be disassembled into multiple weapons to be used in the C.O.M.B.A.T. System. Leader Class figures are very similar to ''Power of the Primes'', in which smaller figures come with additional armor that can be be added to vehicle mode or robot mode to increase their size to become the height of a Leader Class figure.

The boxes of the figures have black-light revealed [[Alphabet#Generation 1 alphabets|cybertronian script]] on them which can be put into the "[[Found a hidden code?]]" game on the Transformers website.

Following in the footsteps of [[Arcee (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Arcee]], [[Grotusque#Generations|Grotusque]], and the three ''[[Prime Wars Trilogy]]'' "Special Edition" figures in 2018, Hasbro debuted a special edition ''[[Transformers: Generations#Selects|Selects]]'' deco of Voyager Class Megatron at [[Toy Fair 2019]] to celebrate the ''War for Cybertron Trilogy''. Announced at [[Toy Fair 2019]], Combat Megatron was exclusively available in the United States via online retailers such as [[BigBadToyStore]], [[Entertainment Earth]], TFSource, and Hasbro's new replacement for [[Hasbro Toy Shop]], [[Hasbro Pulse]].

Like ''[[Transformers: The Last Knight (toyline)| The Last Knight]]'', ''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'', and ''[[Studio Series]]'', [[TakaraTomy]]'s ''Transformers Siege'' (トランスフォーマーシージ) toyline sees their new "brand unification" strategy in full effect. As such, Takara ''Siege'' toys are completely identical to their [[Hasbro]] counterparts, just released in different waves and given new "ID" numbers.

[[File:Red Wing profile image.jpg|thumb|upright=1.67|We swear, if he throws [[Octopunch (G1)|Octopunch]] ''one more time''...]]

'''Red Wing''' is a [[Seeker (body-type)|Seeker]]. He has a "devil may care" attitude and some powerful guns, so what more do you need? Sadly, he's probably not the partner of [[Falcon (superhero)|Falcon]].

==Fiction==
===''Wings Universe''===
Red Wing was part of a joint [[Autobot]]/[[Decepticon]] assault on the [[Cybertronian (faction)|Cybertronian]] clone army. In the ensuing battle, Red Wing was shot in the back by [[Skywarp (MW)|Skywarp]]. {{storylink|Termination}}

===''Kre-O'' online manga===
[[File:Red_Wing_Kre-O_Character_Image.jpg|thumb|left|"Sorry, you're too hot to know me, babe!"]]

Red Wing was among [[Bludgeon (G1)|Bludgeon]]'s troops as they discovered the [[Red Bucket]]. {{storylink|Treasure Competition! Defeat with Block Power!}}

===''TransTech''===
Red Wing was one of many [[Offworlder]]s in [[Axiom Nexus]]'s Under City. Red Wing was part of a crowd in [[Seeker-Shinai]] that [[Megatron (Movie)|C-81]] attempted to disperse through intimidation. Unfortunately, all the Seekers present were too stunned to see a "Megatron" in Axiom Nexus to budge. {{storylink|Cybertron's Most Wanted}}

===2005 IDW continuity===
Red Wing was one of the Decepticons who joined [[Needlenose (G1)|Needlenose]] and [[Brawl (G1)|Brawl]] for [[Galvatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Galvatron]]'s ill-fated assault on [[Shanghai]], [[China]]. {{storylink|All Hail Optimus Part 1: Once Upon a Time on Earth|Once Upon a Time on Earth}}

**''ID number'': '''WFC-GS02'''
***"Accessories: 2 "HPI Null-Ray Laser Launchers'''
:Siege Decepticon Red Wing will be a [[Generations Selects]] figure. He will be a redeco of Siege Thundercracker, himself a retool of Siege Starscream. Like Siege Starscream and Thundercracker, he features hardpoints to accommodate "Fire Blast" effect parts, and will include Battle Damage paint applications all over his body.
{{comingsoontoy}}

==Games==
===''Transformers Legends''===
When the Decepticons used [[Chronogon]] portals to send the [[Aerialbot (G1)|Aerialbots]] back in time, Red Wing took part in an operation to try and prevent Orion Pax's recreation as [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]]. {{storylink|Golden Age (Legends)|Golden Age}}

==Notes==
*Red Wing owes his entire existence to a series of miscomunications between [[Hasbro]], [[TakaraTomy]], [[e-HOBBY]] and [[Fun Publications]], coupled with a slight coloring error: FunPub's original plans for the [[BotCon 2013]] exclusive toys were to have a souvenir three-pack featuring redecos of ''[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Classics|Starscream]] with color schemes based on the "welcoming committee" from the [[More than Meets the Eye, Part 1|''Generation 1'' cartoon's first episode]]. However, at the time, FunPub had just entered a partnership with e-HOBBY in Japan, and since e-HOBBY were the ones who had originally turned the generic orange [[Seeker (body-type)|Seeker]] into an actual character and given him the name "[[Sunstorm (G1)|Sunstorm]]", and e-HOBBY had plans to release their own Sunstorm redeco of the figure, FunPub decided to exclude Sunstorm from the set, and instead replace him with a new character named "Hotlink" (at that time, the purple Seeker would have been named "Nacelle") that would have sported a more red-ish orange color scheme, with the [[Termination|BotCon 2013 exclusive comic]] intended to feature both Sunstorm and "Hotlink". However, TakaraTomy subsequently denied e-HOBBY the permission to release their version of Sunstorm, because according to their information, Hasbro themselves were planning to release a new Sunstorm toy. After a while, FunPub realized that Takara might have very well been referring to their own (since shelved) BotCon exclusive figure... so they eventually decided to go ahead and change the figure to be included in the set back to Sunstorm, while the name "[[Hotlink (G1)|Hotlink]]" was reassigned to the purple Seeker (the name "Nacelle" was later given to [[Nacelle (G1)|yet ''another'' Seeker]]). Because that change was made at the last moment, the comic still ended up featuring both the more yellow-ish orange Sunstorm and the more red-ish orange Seeker... however, in the final printed comic, that latter Seeker ended up looking ''very'' red and not much orange due to the lighting effects and contrast with the background.<ref name="bc13seekers">[https://www.allspark.com/forums/topic/156054-generations-selects-brown-box-revealed-pg-7/page-9#entry3834842 Post by Fun Publications' Jesse Wittenrich on The Allspark Forums, 15 January 2019]</ref><ref name="whois">[https://twitter.com/JesseWittenrich/status/1096940990424854528 Series of posts by Jesse Wittenrich on Twitter.]</ref> Following the convention, [[Randy Para|one fan]] kept inquring about the identity of the mysterious "red" Seeker both online and offline, and thus Fun Publications finally ended up naming the character "Red Wing" via Twitter. Prior to this, [[Pete Sinclair]] wasn't even aware (or at least feigned ignorance) of his existence in "Termination" due to his extremely minor role and the number of other Seekers present within the story.
*Red Wing subsequently received his first bit of characterization when he was given a short bio by the ''Transformers Legends'' game.
*''Kre-O'' Red Wing is made from existing Kre-O parts, like all non-toy robot Kreons in these comics. As per usual, he uses the [[Seeker (body-type)|Seeker]] Kreon parts consisting of the [[Starscream (Kre-O)|Starscream]] helmet, jet wings, and Seeker arm rifles.

Blowpipe (G1)

2019-06-01T02:02:26Z

Garfieldwxg55: /* War for Cybertron: Siege */

{{factions|decepticon|autobot}}
{{disambig3|Blowpipe}}
:''Blowpipe is a [[Decepticon]] [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmaster]] from the [[Generation 1 continuity family|Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''
[[File:BlowpipeRebirth.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|Look, whatever you do, just don't say anything about his hat. Or his name.]]
The conniving brother-in-law of Lord [[Zarak (G1)|Zarak]], '''Blowpipe''' managed the political campaign that brought him and kept him in power. While a smooth political operator with endless connections, Blowpipe lacks the physical presence and style of a leader, causing him to resent his brother-in-law for taking all the glory when ''he'' did all the "real" work.

Treating combat like he would a political campaign, Blowpipe plots and plans things in advance, leaving nothing to chance, which puts him at odds with his [[Binary bonding|binary bonded]] partner [[Triggerhappy (G1)|Triggerhappy]], whose idea of combat tactics is to wave his gun around randomly as fast as he can and shoot really, really fast.

Blowpipe's nature varies. In most universes he is an organic Nebulan; in others he is a robotic Cybertronian.

==Fiction==
===Marvel ''The Transformers'' comics===
Blowpipe was brother-in-law to Lord [[Zarak (G1)|Zarak]], presumably [[Llyra]]'s maternal uncle. Always cast in Zarak's shadow, he spent his career as a political manager for Zarak. Although Blowpipe's machinations won Zarak the prominence he coveted in the [[Council of Peers]], it was ultimately Zarak's own charisma which was given credit for his rise to fame, leaving Blowpipe envious and unheralded. He remained a part of Zarak's political machine and, when Zarak joined forces with [[Scorponok (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Scorponok]] and the Decepticons, Blowpipe underwent the Targetmaster process and binary bonded to Triggerhappy. This did little to raise his personal profile on [[Nebulos]], however, as Zarak ordered the Decepticons to abandon Nebulos mere hours after the Decepticon Targetmasters had their first field mission, battling against a group of Autobot escapees in the streets of [[Koraja]]. {{storylink|Brothers in Armor!!}}

Blowpipe remained at Triggerhappy's side throughout the Decepticons' stay on Earth. He was remarkably silent when Triggerhappy and [[Mindwipe (G1)|Mindwipe]] decided to desert Zarak and the Decepticons. {{storylink|Eye of the Storm}}
{{-}}

===''The Transformers'' cartoon===
{{voiceactor|[[John Moschitta]] (English), [[Akimitsu Takase]] (Japanese)|[[Gerd Wiedenhofen]] (German)}}
One of the Nebulan [[Hive (G1)|Hive]], Blowpipe was bio-engineered into a weapon by the Targetmaster process. When he transformed and jumped into Triggerhappy's hand, he punned on his name by stating he wanted to BLOW the rebels away. Triggerhappy responded by cackling that the Autobots were as good as melted slag. This happy duo turned their glee on the Autobots, and successfully stole the key to the [[Plasma Energy Chamber]]. {{storylink|The Rebirth, Part 2}}

Despite their happy working arrangement, Blowpipe still turned on Triggerhappy when [[Zarak (G1)|Zarak]] commanded it. He and the other Targetmaster partners demonstrated the ability to float, aim, and potentially shoot on their own when they got into an argument with their Decepticon partners. {{storylink|The Rebirth, Part 3}}

===Japanese Generation 1 cartoon continuity===
====''The Headmasters'' cartoon====
[[File:Pre-Targetmasters.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.2]]
Blowpipe and his five friends were refugees, having fled their home planet of [[Master (planet)|Master]] when [[Scorponok (G1)|Scorponok]] and the Decepticons began an all-out siege on the world. They were being chased through space in their starship by the Decepticons when they came across the Battleship Maximus. [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|Fortress]] gave them safe haven aboard his starship, and the Master citizens attempted to show their gratitude by removing the deadly plasma energy bombs Fortress was trying to dispose of. Their efforts came too late, however, as the plasma energy bombs exploded aboard their ship in space, bathing everyone nearby with energy. {{storylink|Miraculous Warriors, Targetmasters (Part 1)}}

Although they survived the explosion, for Blowpipe and two of his fellow refugees, the ending was not a happy one. The plasma energy somehow fused each of them to a different one of the Decepticon trio who had been attacking them, creating Targetmasters. Blowpipe was now the eternal partner of Triggerhappy and became a member of the Decepticon army at his side. As a Decepticon, Blowpipe was forced to join in the invasion of his own planet. {{storylink|Miraculous Warriors, Targetmasters (Part 2)}}

[[File:HM 30 Blowpipe bonded with Triggerhappy.jpg|thumb|upright=1.2]]
In a battle for the data of the [[Master Sword]], Blowpipe bonded with Triggerhappy to fight the Autobots. {{Storylink|The Master Sword Is in Danger!!}} Blowpipe again joined his partner when the Autobot Targetmasters landed on Master to investigate the possible presence of the Decepticons. The two forces battled each other, and the Decepticons were able to wash the Autobots away in a surge of water from an elevated lake. The Decepticon Targetmasters returned to the other Decepticons to report of their triumph over the Autobot Targetmasters. When the Autobot [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmasters]] sneaked into the Decepticon's hidden cavern base, the Targetmasters were there to greet them. A battle ensued that the Autobot Targetmasters joined, but the Decepticons eventually retreated. {{storylink|The Zarak Shield Turns the Tide}}

[[File:HM 31 Targetmasters stand watch.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.2]]
[[Caliburst (G1)|Caliburst]], Blowpipe, and [[Aimless (G1)|Aimless]] were later assigned to watch out for any intruders, and they spotted the Autobot Targetmasters. They went off to report their presence to the other Decepticons and joined their larger partners in attacking the Autobots. During battle, the Decepticons were distracted by an aircraft sent by the natives of Master, allowing the Autobots to escape. Nevertheless, the Decepticons were soon sicced on a Master city, killing the natives. The natives fought back with aircraft, and their combined efforts with the Autobots forced the lesser Decepticons to flee into Scorponok's [[transtector]]. After a showdown between the Zarak Shield and the Master Sword, the Decepticons left Master for [[Earth]]. {{Storylink|Operation: Destroy the Decepticons}}

Blowpipe played part in the decisive battle with the Autobots at the [[Arctic|North Pole]]. When the [[Final Formation]] put an end to Scorponok's machinations on Earth, the Decepticons retreated into space. {{Storylink|The Final Showdown on Earth (Part 2)}}

====''The Headmasters'' manga====
[[File:HM issue 7 Decepticon Targetmasters.jpg|thumb|upright=1.2]]
Blowpipe and the Decepticon Targetmasters attempted to disrupt the Autobots' efforts to put out a blazing fire on Earth. The Autobots' split focus left them vulnerable, until the Battleship Maximus extinguished the entire fire in one sweep. [[Ricochet (Headmasters)|Ricochet]] and [[Artfire]] then turned their full attention on Blowpipe and his allies, driving them from the scene. {{storylink|The Headmasters issue 7|The Headmasters #7}}

{{-}}
====''Transformers Legends'' comics====
Years prior to becoming a Targetmaster, Blowpipe was one of six Master warriors who were kidnapped by Scorponok and exposed to plasma energy, removing their ability to speak. When Scorponok returned to Master in 2011 and tried to recapture them and continue his experiments, the six of them fled the planet. {{storylink|Mutant Targetmaster Birth Chapter}}

In [[2021]], Blowpipe and the Decepticon Targetmasters were battling their Autobot counterparts in space when Scorponok detonated a [[black hole]], creating a plasma energy shockwave that caused the Targetmaster partners to vanish. {{storylink|Targetmaster Chapter Prologue}} When they were located in the void of space, the six had been supercharged with plasma energy and gathered together into a clump of guns. The Decepticon Targetmasters attempted to transport them into the [[Legends World]] using [[Alpha Trion (G1)|Alpha Trion]], but the combined plasma energy was too dangerous and Trion instead scattered them across the dimension. {{storylink|Mutant Targetmaster Birth Chapter}} Furthermore, the combination of plasma energy with the Legends World's unique energies mutated the Targetmasters, granting them new powers. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 45|Bonus Edition Vol. 45}}

Blowpipe was discovered underground by [[Scourge (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Scourge]] and the [[Sweep (G1)|Sweeps]], {{storylink|Targetmaster Chapter Prologue}} who found that he now had the ability to fire [[electro-clone beam]]s and used him to create a [[Sharkticon (G1)|Sharkticon]] army. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 44|Bonus Edition Vol. 44}} After they were stopped by [[Hot Rod (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Hot Rod]] and [[Shaoshao Li]], Scourge fled with Blowpipe and used him to create clones of himself to back him up. When confronted again, he used Blowpipe to create several evil Hot Rod clones, but Hot Rod and Shaoshao defeated them all and captured the Targetmaster. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 45|Bonus Edition Vol. 45}} He was broken out of police custody by [[Kickback (G1)|Kickback]], who used him to create clones of himself until he was defeated and the Targetmaster recovered. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 47|Bonus Edition Vol. 47}} Blowpipe could not be contained any longer, however, as he began emitting plasma energy that erased any inorganic materials near him. To put a stop to the destruction, the police contacted Triggerhappy, whose Targetmaster origins made him immune to plasma energy and allowed him to capture his old partner. Triggerhappy then tried to fire Blowpipe and discovered that his clone beams could recreate everything he'd destroyed. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 49|Bonus Edition Vol. 49}}

Triggerhappy used Blowpipe's clone beams to increase the mass of [[Repugnus (G1)|Repugnus]]'s mech suit to the size where [[Broadside (G1)|Broadside]] could use it. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 53|Bonus Edition Vol. 53}} Blowpipe was then stolen by Scourge and the Sweeps and used to clone [[Sweep Seven|Sweep No. 7]]. {{storylink|TF Legends Late Xmas Present Chapter|Late Xmas Present Chapter}}
He was stolen once more by Slugslinger, who combined him with Aimless and Caliburst into the powerful [[Plasma Energy Chamber (Legends)|Plasma Energy Chamber]] gun, though they were separated by Shaoshao, [[Sue Faireborn]] and [[White Lune]], who defeated Slugslinger. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 55|Bonus Edition Vol. 55}}

===Toy pack-in material===
When the Decepticons got wind of the fact that [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] had become amnesiac and was wandering lost around [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]'s Hemisphere of Darkness, Triggerhappy and Blowpipe formed a team with [[Mindwipe (G1)|Mindwipe]] and [[Vorath]] called [[Seek and Terminate Optimus Prime]] and set out to find Prime before the Autobots could. As the Autobot leader's memory was completely shot, there was the risk that he would accept the Decepticons as friends if they found him first. {{storylink|Optimus Prime Is Back}}

===Dreamwave ''Generation One'' continuity===
Blowpipe was Zarak's half-brother who organized his illegitimate election. {{storylink|Transformers: More than Meets the Eye|''More than Meets the Eye'' Triggerhappy profile}}

===''Titans Return'' packaging material===
When bonded with another 'bot, Blowpipe's Titan Master powers gave them the power of a compression cannon, hitting their foes with armour-crushing force. {{storylink|Blowpipe (G1)#Generations|''Titans Return'' Triggerhappy and Blowpipe toy bio}}

*When the Transformers' war resumed its course on [[Nebulos|Nebulon]], Blowpipe accompanied Triggerhappy into battle alongside his fellow Decepticon [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmasters]]. As they fought against their Autobot counterparts, [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|Fortress Maximus]] and [[Scorponok (G1)|Scorponok]] grappled in the distance. {{storylink|Commercial/Generation 1#Headmaster comic book|Headmaster comic book commercial}}
*Blowpipe aided [[Triggerhappy (G1)|Triggerhappy]] in gunning down [[Sureshot (G1)|Sureshot]] in the middle of a mechanical city. When the Autobot transformed, Triggerhappy did the same and both used their guns to fire at one another until they were in grappling range. Both of the larger combatants' guns then transformed and grappled with one another as well. {{storylink|Commercial/Generation 1#Targetmasters|Targetmasters commercial}}

*'''Triggerhappy''' (Targetmaster, [[1987]])
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''D-88'''
**''Accessories'': Cannon-pack

:Blowpipe transforms into a [[compression cannon]] with single large and smaller secondary barrel. Blowpipe's transformation, like [[Caliburst (G1)|Caliburst]]'s, is slightly more involved than many Targetmasters weapons; his gun barrel is a separate piece that plugs into his back, and once his legs are folded up the barrel has to be snapped into place where the legs were, the resulting weapon longer than many of the other first year Targetmasters.

:Blowpipe could be placed in either Triggerhappy's hands or on top of his vehicle mode thanks to the use of [[5 mm post]]s and holes; as his backpack uses the same sized peg, it can also be used as a hand-held blaster on its own.

: This mold was [[retool]]ed to make [[Aimless (G1)#Generations|Aimless]], [[Caliburst (G1)#Generations|Caliburst]], and [[Haruma Gō#Generations|Professor Go]], changing only the robot-face "backpacks" each time.

**''Japanese release date'': '''[[March 30]], 2019'''
**''Accessories'': Cannon, 2 "Fire Blast" pieces
:Part of the first wave of ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege (toyline)|Siege]]'' [[Battle Master|Battle Masters]], Blowpipe transforms from robot to "Dual-Impact Shatterblast Compression Cannon" and back. As a part of the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]], he includes a "Fire Blast" effect piece that can be used to simulate his blaster mode firing, and can slot onto the various hardpoints found on other figures and weaponry from the same subline to simulate blaster fire or explosions. The outer peg of the effect part can also attach to 5mm ports. The actual gun barrel piece can detach from the back, revealing a 3mm peg, and connect to his arm as a cannon. Due to the gun barrel piece's size, attaching a Fire Blast effect to it while he's wielding it in this manner will render the figure too unstable to stand.

:Unlike other blast effect parts, his can be separated into two pieces. One that attaches to other 3mm hardpoints and one that fits 5mm pegs.

:Blowpipe was [[Retool|retooled]] into [[Aimless_(G1)#War_for_Cybertron:_Siege|Aimless]] and [[Redeco|redecoed]] into [[Caliburst_(G1)#War_for_Cybertron:_Siege|Caliburst]] with a new "Fire Blast." A currently unnamed redeco of Aimless will be included in the Firestormer Battle Pack.

War for Cybertron: Siege

[[File:WFC-Siege-Poster-ArkLaunchAutobots.jpg|thumb|250px|The stege begins.]]

'''''War For Cybertron: Siege''''' is a [[subline imprint]] of the ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' toyline, and the first portion of the ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy]]''.

First revealed in mid-[[2018]] at [[San Diego Comic-Con]], ''War for Cybertron: Siege'', in keeping with the installments of the ''[[Prime Wars Trilogy]]'', features a line-wide [[gimmick]]: weaponry. Most Deluxe, Voyager, and Leader Class figures each come with at least one or two weapons that can transform, combine, and/or be placed into any [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]] posts, [[5 mm post]]s littered all over their bodies, essentially an updated version of the [[Powerlinx]] system. Another line-wide feature is battle-damaged paintjobs on Deluxe-and-up figures to fit with the gritty "war" aspect. Returning to this toyline are [[Micromaster]]s, which are bundled in two packs, replacing the Legends Class of the last half-decade, and are now able to combine into large weapons as well as transform into their vehicle form. This size class is also used for Soundwave's minions, who can turn into cassettes or be used as a shield with fold-out pegs. Replacing the [[Prime Master]]s from [[Power of the Primes (toyline)|the last toyline]] are "[[Battle Master]]s", small [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmaster]]-type figures that can combine with other weapons and figures. They include additional "Fire Blast" effect pieces that can be placed onto other weapons included with other size classes, as well as hardpoints on the figures themselves to simulate being 'shot' or on the back of vehicles to simulate "rocket boosters" or "speed", depending on the effect part. Each effect part attaches via a 3 mm hole, or in most cases, 5 mm posts too. Some Deluxe Class figures are classified as "Deluxe Weaponizers," which can be disassembled into multiple weapons to be used in the C.O.M.B.A.T. System. Leader Class figures are very similar to ''Power of the Primes'', in which smaller figures come with additional armor that can be be added to vehicle mode or robot mode to increase their size to become the height of a Leader Class figure.

The boxes of the figures have black-light revealed [[Alphabet#Generation 1 alphabets|cybertronian script]] on them which can be put into the "[[Found a hidden code?]]" game on the Transformers website.

Following in the footsteps of [[Arcee (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Arcee]], [[Grotusque#Generations|Grotusque]], and the three ''[[Prime Wars Trilogy]]'' "Special Edition" figures in 2018, Hasbro debuted a special edition ''[[Transformers: Generations#Selects|Selects]]'' deco of Voyager Class Megatron at [[Toy Fair 2019]] to celebrate the ''War for Cybertron Trilogy''. Announced at [[Toy Fair 2019]], Combat Megatron was exclusively available in the United States via online retailers such as [[BigBadToyStore]], [[Entertainment Earth]], TFSource, and Hasbro's new replacement for [[Hasbro Toy Shop]], [[Hasbro Pulse]].

==''Siege'' (TakaraTomy)==
Like ''[[Transformers: The Last Knight (toyline)| The Last Knight]]'', ''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'', and ''[[Studio Series]]'', [[TakaraTomy]]'s ''Transformers Siege'' (トランスフォーマーシージ) toyline sees their new "brand unification" strategy in full effect. As such, Takara ''Siege'' toys are completely identical to their [[Hasbro]] counterparts, just released in different waves and given new "ID" numbers.

==Notes==
*The names of many individual figures from this line were revealed by listings on [[Walmart]] and [[Amazon (website)|Amazon Australia]] prior to being formally unveiled by Hasbro at conventions.
*''Siege'' toys debuted at the tail end of October 2018 with the Voyager Class available from U.S. comic stores and private dealers, followed up by Battle Masters at [[Target]] on November 4, 2018.
*Deluxe Class Red Alert was accidentally revealed by Hasbro by being featured as the "core" figure in the [[stock photography|stock CG render]] showcasing the use of Brunt's Weaponizer parts released during New York Comic-Con in October 2018. Full on stock renders were found on different websites, such as [[Target]] and [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] leading to New York [[Toy Fair 2019]], midway through February, where his existence was finally acknowledged.
