Very good transformerMar 28, 2010
This simple:
- some parts could be a liiiittle more solid. Especially the leg joints.
- transform great
- looks great as car
- looks even better as a man
- great joints overall
- great range of movement and poses.
- like it A LOT...as does my son. It's one of his favourites! (not an error in spelling)
If you're after a transformer that will not disappoint, this is the one.
Very cool.
Cheers
My little brother loves it butDec 24, 2009
he loves the sideswipe toy it very cool toy he gives it this rating because the only fault he found was it came with no guns other then that he loves it i don't know about transforming though it took him only 2 hours to learn to transform it the wheels are plastic which i think is better for a kid who plays with it a lot. any one who want's a transformer look no further with sideswipe.
Transformers FunSep 26, 2009
Bought this for our son, 12 yrs., a transformers fan. He loves a challenge which he found in this item. At first it frustrated him as he encountered some difficulty, but he took a break then he persevered and now tranforms it with ease. He enjoys playing with it as well. Transformers has good educational value because it helps to develop one's motor skills, helps them to think and resolve a task and to have patience as it was not easy to transform at first.
One of my new favorite movie figuresSep 10, 2009
I'd been interested in the Sideswipe figure since seeing him in a department store for the first time a couple of months ago, but I recently found my old G1 figures packed away at my parent's house and those had temporarily taken my attention away from buying any of the new ROTF figures. I finally purchased Sideswipe when I found him on sale a couple of days ago, and he is now one of my favorite figures from either of the two live-action Transformers movies.
First of all, the sculpt of this figure is excellent, both in vehicle mode and in robot mode. Although he doesn't look much like the Sideswipe I grew up with, I wouldn't change this figure's appearance in any way. He is very sleek looking in robot mode, and just has a great design, all the way from his head sculpt to the legs and arms. The blades in his arms look great, and have a very cool way of moving from front to back.
As others have said, there are some fairly large seams in vehicle mode, but when transformed correctly, this is still an excellent looking vehicle mode. It takes just the right "snap" here and there to get the arms and feet back into place for vehicle mode, but when done correctly, it's a solid looking Corvette concept car.
One negative that I've found with Sideswipe is that the chest does not actually "click" into place with the torso when he's transformed into robot mode (at least with my figure). While the chest does rest over the peg at the top of the torso, it pops up very easily. I've watched a few online video reviews of Sideswipe and I've noticed the same issue in those reviews, and as another reviewer mentioned here on Amazon, you can see this in the picture at the top of the product page.
Finally, the transformation is very good. It's not as good as the transformation for the ROTF Movie Leader Optimus Prime or Ultimate Bumblebee, but it is one of the better transformations of all of the movie figures I own, especially in the deluxe class line.
If it weren't for the big seams in vehicle mode and the chest/torso issue I mentioned above, I would give this figure 5 stars. Those are minor flaws compared to the excellent design and fun of this figure, so I would highly recommend buying it if you're considering adding it to your collection.

Sideswipe ReviewSep 09, 2009
This is a perfect gift for younger children probably around the age of 9 to 13. Easy to transform back and forth from robot to vehicle. No small parts to swallow. It looks awesome in both vehicle and in robot form.
