Decepticon Spike
Very show accurate, and fun to transform. My only complaint is that there isn't a TFA version of all the Combatacons.

Swindle is one of my fav, animated cons, and the toy is definately great. Great transformation, and show accuracy. Its biggest problem is that's it's difficult to balance. I also like to transform his back plating differently than the instructions.

I got sick of the mostly crummy movie lines and decided to pick Swindle up.He's great!Even his weird bug head grows on you.Odd hands take some getting used to.Great weapons set,passable flight mode and skate-feet,he's loaded!

Solid alt. mode. Bot mode is amazing, reeks of character, and can get some really good poses once you work out his articulation. Must have.

Cool weapon, great G1 homage. I don't think the head is so bad, it is very G1 and Animated. I like the color change in the weapon when the projectile is launched.

Cool transformation & neat weapons. Don't really get the wings, and thing they could have done those better. And his face.... augh, his face! Most hideous TF I own. Wish his legs were more posable, but pretty nice otherwise.

Swindle looks great in both modes. Head is kinda cute. He looks small but that is because of his exaggerated proportions. Weaponry is fun and is unintrusive but I wish the hands were better designed and weren't claws. Panel on left arm doesn't stay in.

Nice vehicle mode. Looks like an H2. Bot mode ok. Not fond of hands. No fist to hold cannon. Head looks like a squashed grape.

My expectations were VERY high because of how much I dig his in-show persona, & this toy lives up to them! Altho greenish/tan color took some getting used to, he's show accurate, decent pose-ability, appropriately LOADED w/ awesome weapons & unique tf'n.

i'm biased because he's one of my all-time favorite characters. his alt is cool, and transformation is interesting. his bot mode is small, but that's how Swindle should be. the detail on the cannon is excellent, but does not sit snug at all.

Barely out of the package my toddler swiped Swindle! Survived the unsupervised play just fine. G1 likeness is great. Robot mode is especially awesome. 2 ways to have fingers and thumb set up, don't care for either way. Upside down "V" on neck, Vok anyone?

Sidewinder
Good sculpt and show likeness, especially with the flip out gatlin gun in the chest, but he's a bit small and in vehicle mode not everything snaps into place. Not bad, but not great.

Upside: Great show accuracy as with most Animated toys. Great homage to the G1 character. Interesting transformation though a little too much kibble. Poseability is alittle lacking. Still a great figure with all of Swindle's cutesy slyness.
