ROTF Sideways - Deluxe Class

The second toy that I chose is Decepticon Sideways - yeah, Decepticon again. What to do the four major Autobots from previous film that make it to the new one has toys made of similar mould, with some minor changes. I'm not buying those. After failing to locate Soundwave, I settle on this.


The buying experience now is very different from buying the toys from the first movie. Reason being, I just starting to collect Transformers toys, that is already one or two years after the first movie. Meaning when I buy the movie version toys, I have an idea what they look like in the movie and will compare with the toys. This will affect my decision on which to buy first and which later.


But now, it is different. I haven't watch the second movie, and all toys seems to be so cool looking~!


In the net, it is said that Sideways is an Audi sports car. Well for a Deluxe class, don't expect to have such light effect. That is a Photoshop effect ok.


It is a gorgeous looking car and it is almost seamless. It has a gimmick cooler than Auto Morph, with a push on the front grill, it will unlock certain key and move two parts. This will enable us to proceed the transformation and it is a must do, and the first thing to do.


The robot mode, the new Mech Alive gimmick is the lackluster spinning saw in the right hand which is just a plastic saw spinning when you spin it.


The robot has a backpack which made it hard to stand straight. From the back the backpack makes it looks like a funny big head robot.


But overall it is a skinny robot and we can expect it to be a swift fighter and also a cruel one.

And the head does reminds me of Barricade. Other than both being Decepticon, are they somehow related?
