Swerve goes swerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrve! Even though he's apparently a good shot, he can still deliver a good, old-fashion haymaker.
He may or may not have a rocket launcher.
Toys
Revenge of the Fallen
Deluxe Class toys
- Swerve (Deluxe, 2009)
- Swerve is a red redeco of Revenge of the Fallen Deluxe-class Sideswipe, retooled with a new head. Swerve transforms into a silver Corvette Stingray concept car, though in this mode, he sits so low that it's difficult to roll him without scraping his undercarriage, unless you perform some careful shaping after transforming him (a trait shared by some other live-action movie Deluxe cars, such as Bumblebee and Sideways). His Mech Alive gimmick is in his knees—bending his legs causes the blue armor plates on his knees to extend.
- The torso connection problem that plagued Sideswipe has now been fixed.
Legends Class toys
- Straightaway Shootout (Legends multi-pack, 2009)
- Legends Class Swerve is a red redeco of Legends Sideswipe. He will only be available in the Target-exclusive "Straightaway Shootout" 5-pack together with Mudflap, Ironhide, Runamuck and Sparkcrusher.
Merchandise
3D Battle Card Game
- Swerve (2007)
- Card number: 13
- Swerve is a 23-point "Common" piece in the 3D Battle-Card Game. Constructed of punch-out pieces from randomly-packed plastic cards (two full robots per pack), he can be assembled into his car mode (model undetermined), or into a rather stumpy robot mode. His twin blaster-weapons can be mounted on his arms (their nominal placement) or on his shoulders.
- He uses the same construction as the Barricade, Earth-mode Bumblebee, and Mirage cards. This style is similar to the one used by Cliffjumper, Jazz and Smokescreen.
Trivia
- Amusingly enough, the Battle-Card dubbed "Cliffjumper" is designed after Alternators Swerve. It's exceedingly likely the names for the Swerve and Cliffjumper cards got mixed up, as this Swerve bears more than a passing resemblance to Bumblebee, and every other iteration of movieverse Cliffjumper is a red Bumblebee.
