Legends comic

Sweep No. 3 and the other Sweeps were caught up in Scorponok's black hole explosion that caused their bodies to shrink, forcing them to become Headmasters. The affected Decepticons travelled to the Legends World, where they teamed up with Tera-Kura Co. Headmaster Chapter Prologue The Sweeps became part of the company's official hierarchy, working under Scourge, LG22 Skullcruncher and participated in an introductory lineup for Galvatron, where No.3 was said to have the voice of Blast Off. LG-26 Scourge Prologue Despite being relegated to janitorial duties, the Sweeps got new transtector bodies after striking a deal with Terrorsaur to kidnap Alpha Trion for him. When Scourge powered himself up using Trion, the Sweeps grew jealous and swarmed his transtector in an attempt to get a piece of the cake, with No. 3 taking Scourge's gun for a ride. Their takeover backfired when the transtector overloaded and exploded, and they returned to being janitors, now supervised by a freed Trion. LG26 Scourge

Legends

• Sharktron & Sweeps (Sharkticon) (Basic set, 2017)
  • ID Number: LG44
  • Release date: September 30 2017

Legends "Sweeps" is a redeco/retool of Titans Return Titan Master Fracas, with a new up-swept mustache face. As a Headmaster, the Sweep can transform into a head compatible with Scourge or any other Deluxe-or-larger Titans Return-style figure, though it is intended for use with LG26 Scourge's transtector, to which it is almost color-matched, though the white plastic isn't exactly the same tone. The head-mounted blaster thingy is designed to pop up for head mode, and retract into a marginally less embarrassing position for robot mode.

The Sweep was bundled with Sharktron, a redeco of Titans Return Gnaw.
