I don't really like that when it's a deluxe sized figure.
And he looks to much like the rotf version. Man I hate getting 2 or more versions of the same character, but I sometimes get them anyway.
Hope he gets a bit more personality in the movie.

First have your SS standing up
Then extend his “wings” as if you were going to transform him to car mode
So are the “wings” sticking out his back? If so good work
Then take the “wings” and split them across so it looks like two massive wings on his back
Now flip them up and turn them so that the hood parts are facing you
Now use the second joint on the “wings” and turn them down so it looks like the “wings” are in proportion to his body and very Streak like.

Might have to skip some of these, which may not be a bad thing, cost-wise.

I'm seriously hoping that's not a deluxe, while he does have better looking blades and they removed those dumb pistons gimmick on his thighs, he is an incredibly dull figure with little articulation.
Please be a prototype image, please.

I have to agree. The mold looks pretty solid but the use of the gray plastic makes the figure look extremely cheap.

a Sideswipe that isn't a kibbleformer and has what appears to be a sturdy alt mode.

I think I'll be sticking with my ROTF Sideswipe, thanks.

Amen to that.
Even if Hasbro won't be doing it, I hope Takara, with their massive adult collector market, might spare a thought for us grownups and at the very least make a decent leader class OP with a trailer. I mean, they did give us Buster Prime, so there's always hope, right?
I don't even care if it's just a slight retool of the ROTF mold with a trailer added; ROTF OP was as near perfect as it was going to get, anyways.
As for DOTM Sideswipe, I am thoroughly disappointed. Looks like a legends class fig to me. And that cheap gray plastic....
Gosh, pretty slim pickings so far. Sentinel Prime's a confirmed buy, and I might get DOTM voyager Megs and Shockwave to display with ROTF Voyager SS, and the two Wreckers.
If my wallet had a face, it would be smiling smugly for the rest of the week.
