Toys
Generation 2
- Sideswipe (Go-Bot, 1995)
- Accessories: Gun
Sideswipe was repurposed from the original Sideswipe's Generation 2 Go-Bot toy.
- A redeco of Go-Bot Firecracker, Sideswipe transforms into a blue 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.
- This mold was also used to make Go-Bot version of Optimus Prime and various versions of Robots in Disguise R.E.V..
War for Cybertron: Siege
- Autobot Alphastrike Counterforce (multi-pack, 2019)
- ID number: WFC-S26
- Accessories: "W-10 Photo-Pulser Proton Launcher," "W-5 Gyro Blaster" (combines to form the "RR Gyrofuse Axleswitch Hyper-Blaster")
- "Covert Clone Sideswipe" is a redeco of the Siege Deluxe Class Sideswipe, and unlike most modern releases of the redeco, he retains the Generation 1 insignia (accurate to the original Generation 2 toy). Sideswipe was included in the "Autobot Alphastrike Counterforce" with Slamdance and the Battle Master Trenchfoot.
- A preliminary name for this pack was "Firestormer Battle Pack", which showed up in several online listings, and also on Hasbro shipping cases for the set. The set was an Amazon exclusive in North America, which also label the set as "Final Strike Figure Series: Part 1." In Europe, it was supposed to be an Amazon exclusive as well, but was never actually stocked.
- "Covert Clone Sideswipe" is a clone of Generation 1 Sideswipe in the scope of Siege.[1] As such, this puts him closer to the Wings Universe Sideswipe clone. But in appearance, he is much closer to the IDW 2005 second-generation Sideswipe.
