I can't wait for DEAD END. dead end looks much cooler except for the red tinted windows. clear or black tinted windows would look much better.

My Sideswipe is broken. The screw that kept the door on went off so I made the bad choice by super glueing it without the screw so now the back of the car (his back in bot mode) is stuck on where the screw would have been.

Sideswipe is very cool ALTHOUGH,the decepticon Deadend version blows this piece right out of the water.Thats one fine Viper!!!!!

not bad,not perfect. the instructions on this bot a incorrect. you have to folld the steering wheel down out of the way so that the part behind the seats will tuck beneath the windsheild like the picture.

What the F**K is hasbro thinking! It's great and all but it's too d**n hard to transform . I still cant even get the upperbody right and i've had it for 3 months. I recomend this toy for a expert and someone who's up to the challenge.

This is one skinny robot! That's not a bad thing, though. Sideswipe as a Viper - what a cool idea! Still as articulate as Smokescreen! Ten is too low a rating!

Great car, love the Viper & the color is great for him too. Great detail down to the viper/dodge logos. Looks like the Alternators line is becoming the best since good ol G1 days!

I think he is absolutly awsome. I do wish the legs could move more too, but he is so fun to pose and the car is very hot! One of my faves. He does not have to be a Lambo. A Viper works just as well. Even better maybe.

OMEGA PRIME
THIS GUY IS COOL!! THE VEHICLE MODE IS MARVELOUS,AND I ESPECIALLY LIKED HIS ENGINE. ROBOT MODE IS GREAT,EXEPT,I WISH THEY HAD MADE THE LEGS MOVE BETTER BACK AND FORTH. ANOTHER EXELLENT DELIVERY FROM THE ALTERNATORS LINE.

Vehicle mode is spot on. Downsides are that the hood is hard to open, the rear center light is simply drawn in and that the trunk doesn't open. Robot mode is nice, though I don't like that the legs can't move very far forward/backward. Very good overall!

Not quite as good looking in both modes as Smokescreen but still a great transformer. Keep em comin!

Has a very "plastic-y" feel to it, not at all like Smokescreen. Just as difficult to transform and the steering wheel can pop off (and go back on) easily. Still, a great toy. If you can find and afford it, buy it.

My cousin, Fat Finger wanted me to tell you this, Sideswipe stinks, everyone should give Sideswipe a 1! I really disagree.

Ransack
Only flaw:hood visible on butt. But still, he is awesome. My cousin who's name on this site is Fat Finger, thinks Sideswipe is not cool because of his legs and his face. Very movible. Just got him yesterday.

omega, just change the transformation a bit. Put the wheels on the sides of the arms instead of the back. The doors will go towards the back of the body or will fold out like wings, you'll also get a way better range of arm movement.

Omega Magnus
Almost as good as Alternators Smokescreen. The doors get in the way in robot mode. well detailed vehicle mode. easily worth $20 compared to any energon/armada figure of the same price.

Sweetness! I love vipers, and ever since RID I thought Sideswipe would be cool as one. Can sunstreaker be far behind? I hope so, he'd go great with Hound, my all time fave 2 TFs.

I thought it was absolutely awsome. I like him as much as smokescreen. They both have a neat and different twist to both. Love how exotic the Viper looks. And the robot is awsome to pose!

I like, I like. Transforms better than Smokescreen, looks solid in Robot mode, sweet as hell in vehicle mode. My only complaint is the flimsy rubber used for the steering wheel, but that's more than forgivable.

Schloktacon
Didn't think this one could top Smokescreen, but it does. Captures the essence of Sideswipe's G1 incarnation, but with flair! Both a masterpeice to display and a figure to pose. A profound example of a perfect transformer.

sideswipe
excellent transformation, i like how it ends up being like the g1 ss in robot mode with diffferent and better transformation. in car mode it doesnt even look like a transformer

ben murphy
More practical than some ridiculus lamborgini, yet still sleek and exotic. Vipers are sick. This toy rocks.

MegamanX
I got the binaltech ver. Rocks hard in both modes. Impressive transformation, not just flip and twist, never thought of the steering wheel being part of the transformation. Head looks a lil wierd, Awesome weapon "Viper" V-10 engine.

Outrider
Sideswipe as a Viper! Sweetness! Sunstreaker cant be far away, I hope. Awesome! But the best (hound as a TJ) is yet to come....

Ferry
Looks totally awesome in car mode. I love red convertables and this one is just perfect. Should not have had an Autobot symbol cause it ruins the robot in disguise look a bit. Robot mode is very nicely done as well. A must have for any Transformers fan!
