Can anyone guess why I call Tailgate's minicon Dyson...?

Ahaha, epic. Gave me a good giggle.

I can imagine Tailgate playing live action Quidditch when he thinks that there isn't anybody^Cyclonus isn't watching.

I've decided to repurpose Deluxe Generations Swerve as the Advanced Autobot Commando in the Gokiverse. They are the Autobot equivalent of Vehicons.

Do you plan to get any more to flesh out your troops? They look pretty cool and are generic enough to make good commandos.

No for 3 reasons:
1/ Swerve isn't really meant to be a generic troop, even though he does certainly look generic enough.
2/ Even if he were, I'm not a believer in army building by buying multiples of the exact same toy. It feels like "cheating" to me. I'd rather do it by getting variants. e.g. when I used to collect Star Wars, I bought lots of different kinds of Clone Troopers and a few different types of Stormtroopers. I never got two of the same toy. With Transformers Prime, I've collected different types of Vehicons, but again, no doubles.*
3/ Deluxe Swerve was never available in Australia. Even if he were, it's not a toy that I would personally pay for. I got this toy for free. So if anyone would like to donate more Deluxe Swerves to me, then sure, I might consider army building... but otherwise no.

My TF Prime Vehicons. No two toys are the same.

*There have only been 3 times when I've ever bought a duplicate toy to army build:
+ In 1989/90 I bought another G1 Cyclonus for $2. He became my "Armada." I've since traded/sold off that second Cyclonus about 15 years ago.
+ Generations Scourge; I bought a 2nd one, and even then, only after I saw them peg-warming for a very long time. But I only have 2 of them, so it's not quite an 'army.'
+ TF Prime Legion Class Vehicon; it was on sale, and those things were plentiful and cheap. Again, I only have 2.
