Prowl and Smokescreen took between a week and a half and two weeks to arrive, so you should be fine.

I'm moving house on Sunday. I can probably change my address on eBay and Paypal now and not worry about it arriving from China any time before then, right? -Nick That was quick! Good luck with it! |

Got mine today!
I would absolutely hate this in the G1 flavor, for all the reasons I thought I would.
An ugly sculpt, completely undynamic. Boxy and very squared, devoid of any contours that the original sideswipe toy had. It's oversized, and simply does not do anything that Universe Sideswipe doesn't do better. Just... Completely pointless.
However, all these traits that work against the main release just... Only help to NAIL G2 Sideswipe.
It all just helps to push him over the top, coupled with the fabulous Yanager headsculpt, spikey shoulder tires, absurd guns, and machete. His size isnt even that detracting in a G2 display.
It's funny how something could be so wrong in one way, but so right in another.
Love him.

I have now seen one in the plastic. It is splendid. G2 Sideswipe is angry about everything.

It is the angriest new release toy I have seen since the Gi Joe Specialist Trakker figure.

Oh yes. I will bring mine to Scotcon for show and tell. Andy I'd be curious to see him. I suspect there isn't much prospect of me affording one, but I am curious as to what he looks like in the plastic. Karl |

Angry.
As angry as Lego Bad Cop Liam Neeson, without Good Cops calming influence, after learning his lego wife, Daughter, Mother and pet Dog* have all been taken.
*Presumably the plot for the eventual Taken 4.

We may have to do top 5 angry looking TFs at some point.
Collected mine this morning.

Being the one who tempted you as well as recommended that seller Phil, I hope it passed customs as my previous purchases had.

He did! Fab toy.
Love that you can use the larger hand gun as a shoulder cannon!

I think he is so angry because his head opens up.

This might be true. Is the same thing so on the original MP Sideswipe?

He is angry because he's all out of f***s to give.
He's angry because he came here to kick ass or take names, and he realized he brought a sword instead of a pen.
But most of all, he's angry because they were all out of muffins at the store!

This morning we discovered that the Angry Bot's sword was missing.
He looked very angry about this. He looked very angry a little boy who had been playing with him and was probably responsible for said sword being missing.
After turning the room out and pulling out boxes I found the sword. I'm sure he is very grateful but he still looks angry.

Indeed. He's sure to dish out plenty of that pain on others.
The previous post is an old CG2 reference. Nick Roache's back cover art response to Martin's original Sideswipe On a Good Day picture. You can really read the rage from it. I keep meaning to scan it.
