Transformers: Revenge of The Fallen – Sideways

Saturday, September 19th, 2009

In conjuction with the 2009’s summer action hit Transformers : Revenge of The Fallen, Hasbro released the Decepticon,  Sideways in Deluxe format. We may recall, Sideways was just plain running away from the Autobots and the NEST strike team in Shanghai, before getting sliced in two by Sideswipe.

Although it was a bit part for Sideways, he is one hot Deluxe toy as is vehicle mode is a dark silver sports car. Car enthusiasts will  say that, Sideways is a modified (cosmetically) Audi R8 Sports Coupe.

People were looking high and low for this guy. Fans were just snapping up Sideways together with Sideswipe. Needless to say Sideswipe was more popular, due to the reasons, he was the good guy plus h is vehicle mode is a concept car. As for me, Sideways looks cool regardless,of him getting having a Decepticon badge or  a bit part in the movie.

Revenge of The Fallen frenzy

Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009

May 30th, 2009, has come and gone. The aftermath of that day chosen by Hasbro? (FYI, it’s the worldwide launch date for ROTF, Revenge of The Fallen and no, it is not Rolling on The Floor, etc. )

Transfans (Transformers fans) has bee quick to go on a frenzy snapping up upcoming Revenge of The Fallen toys/figures. Needless to say,  ol’ big bot, Optimus Prime (Leader Class) was the hottest and the fastest of the shelf. Ditto for Megatron, he is looking stockier while Optimus is slimmer.

Strangely the Voyager Class version was not as in demand. The honours go to The Fallen. Looks unique. And of course, in less quantities as I only found one after opening 2 cases (each case consists 4 units of Voyager Class TFs)

Bumblebee’s popularity seems to be going through a dip. Why? Fans are aiming for the Deluxe Class’ silver bots. Sideswipe (Autobot) and Sideways (Decepticon).  They really look cool and sleek.

Which Transformers did you get, Transfans? And most important of all, let’s see what the upcoming movie has got for us, shall we?
