iGear’s store gives us our first look at a possible repaint for the previously released Sidearm Sideswipe. Now sporting colors related to his G2 Go-Bot and Armada self, will this Sideswipe be a store exclusive or an entirely new character.
Also shown is the first non-stock photograph of Botcon 2011’s upcoming Animated Stunticon Dead End.

As far as I know, FunPub can't use any molds from any of the movie lines for BotCon exclusives. In particular, molds for toys for characters that actually appeared in the movies (like Sideswipe) are completely off-limits for BotCon. So the odds of this being a BotCon release are essentially 0%.

Looks to be just another movie repaint.

I like it, but the grey chest doesn't look right.

that Sidearm Sideswipe redeco is actually somewhat interesting, but the giant hood logo (I'm sorry, those never look good) and completely random/foreign Allspark Blue just wreck it.

I hope this is either packed with another toy worth while, or foreshadows an actual paintjob for DOTM sideswipe.

Your opinion. I think its actually a really fitting color scheme for that mold

I love how Sideswipe looks. I only have the first ROTF SideSwipe, but I'll buy one of these when they hit the stores.

He seems like a 3/4 kinda guy.

Should've been in one of those Target 2 packs.

Gee, I wonder what fraction Sideswipe is.

i just bought a Sidearm Sideswipe because I wanted the mold, but I will still get the repaint.

it's based on the G2 gobots version of sideswipe i think, there was also a straight repaint of his G1 toy but it was in a red/black/green scheme.

Sidearm Sideswipe kinda looks like he is a G2.

G2 Deco homage at retail. Sweet news.
Reuse of the very solid sidearm sideswipe mold. Easy pick up; looking forward to it. Like others are saying about it being kind of like the movie wreckers colors I can see that. Its a bit like topspin.
