Erm... why don't you just get a regular Lamborghini Countach toy or model kit if you're just gonna leave it in alt mode? :o T'would be cheaper/easier. ;)Quote:

Almost the same size as Alternity Starscream then and thus probably 1/32 if anything.
Wow! Much smaller than expected!Quote:

I can't wait for the day where the new MP size is Legends class! :D
This is now officially over-priced.
Because then it wouldn't be Sideswipe;) I think this is potential work desk material and get Red Alert for home.Quote:

This is my TF Classics line!
Hmm.. so it really is not much bigger than Classics scale.
However, besides the size, this is exactly what I want from a figure. One that looks exactly like G1 Sideswipe but merged with the cartoon Sideswipe and with better articulation.
I was more than happy with Classics Sideswipe before, but MP Swipe just looks so much better! The extra engineering will justify the increased price to me - and I'm sure when Hasbro release it it will be much cheaper. The Takara version is about $80, so I'm guessing about $50 in the US, loosely based on MP-10 (wasn't that about $250, whereas Hasbro's is expected to be about $100?).
Anyway, if they are using this smaller size, but with this awesome looking accuracy & engineering, then I hope they can release a figure every 2 months or so.
It better come with some diecast.
Thanks for that Kurdt.Quote:

Not sure I'm a massive fan of the shade of red - it's a bit orangey especially compared to the G1 version.
EDIT: Although the pictures you posted in post 24 are a nicer shade of red.
as everyones said, it's just way to small.. i don't care if it fits in mp-10's trailer or not.. (i'm not playing Knight Rider)
still if its around 60 or 70. i might still buy it, or wait for a Hasbro version and get it on sale at TRU. (if mp hotrod is anything to go by) should come in at the $15 - $20 mark:p
