Generations Selects Riccochet and Red Swoop

[Omega Metro]

Time to dispose of my United Stepper so he is more in line with my POTP Jazz. No interest in Swoop what so ever. Blue for the win!!

I'm still going to get a United Stepper for my collection. This doesn't do it for me.

Very good for toy Dinobot fans (not myself). Stepper is nice too.

It’s pretty funny though that his name is “Red Swoop.”

I did notice this. I would've preferred to have it called Divebomb.

I'm gonna head-canon Red Swoop as Swoop and Swoop as Divebomb in the Gokiverse.

Said it before and I'll say it again - it's a shame they didn't make Backstreet out of that Jazz mould.

Don't even need the flippy flip guns. Just a couple accessory guns that are able to plug into his robot/alt modes.

These are already up for preorder with BBTS

Going to stick with United Stepper. He's been on my neglected want list for a long time. It's great that they're releasing this version for the current line, but both modes seem to step-down from the United version.

Aside from an overall lesser amount of gold paint apps, the biggest drawback is the missing flaming gold Autobot insignia from his chest.

The gold paint apps on his sleek/thin ninja-like jaw seem to work against this version as his nose and mouth are not very noticeable, giving him a face-mask look.

Same here, I really like my United Jazz, so if I ever get the chance to find that Stepper....

As for Red Swoop, I never had the G1 toys, so I always knew Swoop as blue, so even if Red Swoop would make Volcanicus unified, I’m happy with Blue Swoop

Are there any local sellers offering these yet, that have a reliable reputation with pre-orders?

The Little Toy Company has them up for pre-order, some members here are not fans of their pre-order stuff as it tends to arrive later than other sources, but speaking for myself, I’ve never had an issue with them yet.
