This eBay auction has appeared with a clear shot of Universe 2.0 Sideswipe
It has a really good picture of him in the box and he appears to have suffered the same fate as his brother at the hands of Hasbro.

As you can see there is a fairly visible difference between the red on the windshield and the rest of his body.
Is it just me or hasn't Hasbro learned anything from what happened with Sunstreaker?
Maybe it just needs another layer of paint or something, because it can't be a problem with the design since Takara seemed to have made it work
