Notes

• Swerve uses G1 Swerve's Thrilling 30 Legends Class figure with colors based on a particular deco of Pick-Up, the Brazilian redeco of the Gears toy, from which Swerve's original Generation 1 toy was retooled - although the lime and purple colors will inevitably remind most people of the original Constructicons.
