Sweep Two is a Decepticon from the cartoon portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Angry!

Sweep Two is one of the Sweeps, huntsmen of Scourge created by Unicron from parts of dead Decepticons. Sweep Two is the close combat specialist of the Sweeps, enforcing Scourge's will with his knowledge of Cybertronian martial arts rather than his ranged weaponry. He has enormous discipline, and indeed helps Scourge keep the other Sweeps in line.

Fiction

The Transformers cartoon

Sweep Two was (presumably) created by Unicron from the remains of fallen Decepticon warriors, following the Decepticons' failed assault on Autobot City. The Transformers: The Movie

Sweep Two may (or may not) be among the Sweeps seen in a variety of exploits over the course of the Generation 1 cartoon.

Wings Universe

Cyclonus, Scourge, and a swarm of Sweeps attacked an Autobot shuttle carrying Kup, Hot Rod and the Dinobots. After losing track of them for a few, the hunters finally found their prey and boarded the shuttle. Unfortunately for the Sweeps, they had interrupted the story Kup was telling the Dinobots to keep them entertained in the downtime. The Dinobots were not amused, and proceeded to violently dismember the Sweeps. Wings of Honor

While this comic does not specifically identify Sweep Two as one of the Sweeps taking part in the attack, it was specifically designed to help promote the BotCon 2009 figures, of which Sweep Two is a member.

Transformers Legends comic

Sweep No. 2 was a gloomy fellow, having a low opinion of himself. LG-26 Scourge Prologue He and the other Sweeps were caught up in Scorponok's black hole explosion that caused their bodies to shrink, forcing them to become Headmasters.

Toys

Timelines

Sweep Two is the one in the middle.
  • Sweeps (multipack, 2009)
Sweeps Two, Six, and Seven came in an exclusive three-pack at BotCon 2009, all three being identical redecos of the Timelines Scourge toy available at the same convention. The mold is a retool of Cybertron Sideways with a new head, transforming into a teal and white alien spacefighter with yellow detailing. The Sweeps are armed with "battle shields" with Cyber Key-activated pop-out blades. Their wings can also detach from their ankles and be used as blades, with both pegging into their hands, either with one blade in each hand, or with both blades pegging into the top and bottom of a single hand, forming a double-bladed weapon. They come with three yellow Planet X-style Cyber Keys with teal deco.
The Sweeps were later repurposed as Shattered Glass Scourge. The original version of this mold was also used for the Japanese DVD-exclusive Noisemaze Mass Production Type Version and Universe Ratbat.
