"I don't break the rules, I bend them -- a lot."
Sideswipe is nearly the equal of his twin brother,
Sunstreaker, in the combat arts, but less cold blooded. Relishes
a fight to the finish with an opponent. Uses underhanded tactics
when absolutely necessary. Arms act as powerful pile drivers. Flies
for up to 2 minutes with rocket backpack. Fires flares visible for
18 miles. Rash actions often lead to injuries to himself. Takes
them all in stride.
This figure was available in 1984-1985.
He was later reissued in Europe in 1991 as part of the Classic Heroes line.
