Toys

2001 Robots in Disguise toyline

  • Side Swipe & Prowl 2 (Basic 2-pack, 2001)
    • Accessories: Rifle
Side Swipe transforms into a modified Chevrolet Camaro with exposed engine block. He has through-axle construction to allow for super-fast rolling in car mode. Like his fellow "new"-mold teammates, his rifle stores under his car mode. He was available in a two-pack with Prowl 2.
This mold was used to make Universe Silverstreak.


  • Side Swipe (Tiny Tins, 2001)
    • Accessories: Rifle, storage tin
Side Swipe was one of several Robots in Disguise toys to be released as an individual in a Tiny Tins release, with a pocket-sized carrying case. The actual toy is unchanged from the two-pack version.

Notes

  • Side Swipe was the first official release of a mold originally intended to be released as part of the Generation 2 Go-Bots sub-line. Owing to the name printed on the front bumper, the original identity of the mold appears to have been Rumble.
  • Though the toy shares its origins with and is packed like the Hasbro releases of the Spy Changers, he has never been officially labeled as a member of that team.
