That's actually where I just ordered a set from. When I was looking around, I found alot of places that had a baseline $8 or $9 shipping charge. When they're shipping a couple of tiny parts in an envelope, it seems a little egregious.

Doesn't JRC/wheeljackfan16 have affordable spoilers for Kingdom Sideswipe available?

I got a 3rd party spoiler from Ebay for just $5.00, and it was really easy to install.

It's great that BBTS is getting Kingdom Sideswipe. But to be honest, I think the two Amazon exclusives would've sold better without mixing styles. If this was Sideswipe and Mirage, I would've instantly bought two sets (and probably one of Grimlock and Skywarp). As is, I don't really like either beast figure enough to buy another just to get more of the G1s. My only complaint on Sideswipe (aside from the painted gun) is that I wanted a spoiler without having to spend $15 on a 3rd party kit.

I honestly think this is a lot of unsold stock from Amazon that no one bought on clearance.
Lazerwave
Also dorkside.
You'd think with others stores besides Amazon restocking these, the coneheads would have been priority.

It's on bbts now

I agree, it makes more sense to have cast Kingdom Sideswipes weapons in white plastic, instead of using white paint. It also makes more sense to have left them unpainted black plastic, then what we actually get.
evenstaves
Man, I'd rather swap it out for one of the others' shoulder cannons then- what a gross painting decision
TFfangeek
The answer is YES, sort of. The white paint does not chip off, but instead scrapes off when plugging the cannon into Sideswipe's shoulder.
evenstaves
Just opened mine from Xmas, and I think they're both great
Quick question, looks like both Swipe's weapons are painted white; if I mount this in his shoulder, that paint is gonna chip eh?
I know NF Deep Cover's fits pretty snugly in his, and that's just plastic on plastic
Dark Starscream
Money well spent!
I have an 8-year-old daughter who has had the pleasure of growing up watching my MOTU and She-Ra DVDs and playing with the MOTU Classics figures. Because of her, I watched the entire series of the new She-Ra Princesses of Power, and was pleasantly surprised at what an amazing show it was!

i spent most of my money “saved” on Masters of the Universe Origins. I only discovered the line 3 months ago but I already have all figures and vehicles in the line. Besides Transformers my first love as a kid growing up as a kid in the 1980s was He-Man. I was out of collecting MOTU for a long time. It felt good buying my first Masters of the Universe figure since 1987 and now I can’t stop.
Dark Starscream
Very smart! I had to pass on the $50 BW Megatron, $50 T-Wrecks, and $50 Optimus Primal. That money would be better spent on SG and the Golden Disk collection.

Siege Sideswipe is mostly painted red, is why.
As far as bare red plastic goes, the Kingdom version is pretty good. But bright red ABS plastic always has slight translucency issues.
TheGrognard
The mold is fine – ER Red Alert is really nice. This is just the plastic they pull out when they want to go cheap. It's very soft.
Mardroid
I haven't converted him yet, but I largely like the way my ER Sideswipe looks, and the joints seem fine. I don't have the Siege version,, but I do have two other figures in the Siege mould – Red Alert and Deep Cover, the original groovy black with blue bits, version. I don't think I can really fault either mould.
TheGrognard
Siege is way better.
WolverineDragon
I thought he has good looking red colored plastic.
Oniconvoy
Thanks for confirming. I absolutely love the Siege mold and all its recolours and remolds. This one looked to be a step back, so I’ve passed so far. Sounds like a good decision.
