Sideways, the Decepticon who is well known for making Sideswipe even more epic! A cool feature to this figure would’ve been if he could spit in half like he did in the movie!😁 Well jokes aside he looks like a really great SS figure, a must have in my collection.
I mean, people al already tired of a certain Ukrainian drama queen for obvious reasons.
Might as well.
i want to collect all of the ss rotf, so this is interesting
@@Thomas_Name ?
He’s what you call a Jobber.
Same dude
I loved this figure. While smaller than the old one, the window "wings" actually look sturdier, the biggest issue the old Sideways had was how fragile those were
I own the old one, and the wings are certainly an improvement! Though, the small tab on one of SS 88's wings did break on mine.
Yeah my wings pop off alot in the old one.
Ive heard people saying their only qc issue with this figure is ironically the foot. While its better than the original one its still isn't much unless its on a certain pose
I had a lot of fun discovering you can slide his torso off by pushing his torso backwards and pulling the bottom waist swivel. *Something Studio Series Jazz should have had.*
2 PIECES!
☠️
Nah u wrong for that
Always adored his design and played him all the time in the ROFT game, however his arms are slightly too big. Far better than the original, but I'll definitely be buying this
He honestly is a copy of barricade like the long arms and skinny legs but yes he does look way better
@@blahblah9496 he is a copy as he was originally meant to be him.
@@ilikepigeons6101 Fr I didn’t know that
@@blahblah9496 you may notice that they even have similar heads too. Don't forget the wheel hands too
@@ilikepigeons6101 no yeah that’s why I was like is this an exact copy or what😭
Let’s go! This figure looks absolutely phenomenal! Fantastic review as always PvP!
Thank you so much! :)
WE FINALLY HAVE A BETTER SIDEWAYS TOY THAN ROTF
That's cap
@@spinnyboi5659 not cap the og one had loose bits and translucent parts that broke
This one also has clear plastic and you can just tighten those loose bits with superglue or something on the old one.
@@tfsomegaguy6203 it is cap the car mode looks nothing like sideways
Translucent windows nothin else the old one had translucent doors and more already head of breakage on those
This figure has grown on me a lot. The alt mode still kinda looks like a hot-hatch imo, but the robot mode is much better than I originally thought.
I think it's an Audi r8
@@dustinlackey4250 it was supposed to be, but they couldn't get the license for it so they changed the design and proportions. The back was made a lot stubbier, which is why it looks like a hatchback imo.
@@laughingbulbasaur3291 I see what you're saying. The front totally has the r8 feel. Then you flip it around and its CHONKY. I kind of like the look.
Now we need a studio series skids and mudflap
It's OVER especially if they do the ice cream truck AND their individual modes... I'm never gonna financially recover from this
They wont because of how controversial they are
It’s so awesome that he comes with his gun from the PS2 game! Hopefully it means more game characters potentially in the future (I know Breakaway is also rumored).
If they are also adding the movie game video game characters in this line up, I hope they will add those vehicle drones from the first game, Warpath, Soundwave as a Mercedes SUV, Megatron in his Mack truck minus the trailer and Stratosphere.
This isnt an isolated incident, im pretty sure they've used the mirage vehicle mode from DOTM The Game for studio series mirage
I agree! I’d love breakaway & even warpath!
@@TACTIK00L its pretty similar but not identical
i whould have be cool if his wepon was the ball with the chain like in the ps2 game
finally someone who put some effort to transform it properly
This figure looks amazing! I was going to get this figure regardless because I have been waiting for a Sideways figure for so long. I saw the Chefatron video and some images, and I was disappointed in the figure because of the back kibble. I’m so glad to find that it was just mis-transformed and his back actually looks pretty decent. His car mode also doesn’t look bad at all. It’s a shame they couldn’t get the Audi license to make it an R8, but it still looks good. Super excited to get this figure when it comes out in the US!
I, too, am relieved about the back kibble 😅
Sooooooo am I!
Same here!!
Interesting
Oh wow...already? A new studio series Revenge of the Fallen toy? I never knew they would already have this already and this is such a cool looking side ways figure i hope people like this...😥
Absolute top five favorite underrated characters of all times in the bayverse movies
I CANNOT wait until they drop Breakaway 😭 (hopefully at least)
Haha true! But sadly he did only have like 0.5 secs of screen time in robot mode :(
So nice to see the back kibble folded up
Looks so much better that way too!
While I agree that this figure is better than the original 2009 figure, I have some proportional issues with the figure. I played the ROTF Wii game and I can tell you straight away that Sideways' legs were not that thin, his arms weren't that long and his upper body was not that wide. Definitely not complaining, I think the figure looks great, but I wish the proportions were a little better. Definitely gonna pick this guy up when I get the chance
I feel like the shoulders can be lowered and biceps brought closer to his torso to make him just a bit more accurate and shrink the size of his arms. Almost everyone except the first leaked pic situate the shoulders really high
The shoulders do lock into place for robot mode & that’s how they look if you do lock them
@@PrimeVsPrime In any case I wonder when this figure's gonna release in the US. As for video game references, Sideways' Audi R8 in the game is fully licensed, which is strange that they couldn't do the same for the figures
I actually remember really liking the original Deluxe as a toy,(Sold it years ago.) but in terms of design accuracy, this one certainly pulls it off way better with the robot-mode.
“I wonder if Bumblebee bleeds honey?”
Quite enjoyed him in the game and it’s a shame he didn’t talk in the movie.
The figure looks 100% better than the pics online! Definitely going to have to add him to my collection.
Speaking of obscure characters what I would love to see in the Studio Series line would be the Junkheap drones. They could actually really work if they are sold as an exclusive 3 pack. One being a deluxe (yellow) and the other two being voyagers (white & green). They could make the green one a leader but I think if they just have the green be a bit taller looking it’ll at least give the illusion enough.
Yeah what a waste :/
He looks great. Better then his actually vehicle mod in my opinion
@EthenWithAnE I'm guessing it's a typo and he ment Mode.
Same an r8 is dope but an r8 shooting-brake?? 😩😩😩🙌🏻
If I made a Bayformers OC based on Sideways?? He would've pummeled a few G1 characters as he tells them "Your blockheaded society is full soft and undisciplined weaklings" 😂
Notice how complex this deluxe is with how it looks at the start of a transformation, glad that Hasbro is learning their lesson
It’s really nice for sure!
Yeah I’m buying this. It looks so much better here then in that chefatron “review”
It’s a very nicely done figure for sure!
This figure looks amazing. The vehicle mode, however, is a little mediocre. It's weird that Hasbro was able to make the original deluxe transform into an almost-Audi-type vehicle back in 2009 (It was actually so good that, up until 2015 or so, I legit thought it was the Audi R8) but they couldn't accomplish that again with this figure.
they did not have the Audi license for this line..
Does this mean we'll get more Bayformers toys??
That's cool
"points at the G1 movie toys"
Cause' these ones suck 😂
Yeah, the original release did the Audi mode very well, this looks like a Honda hatchback or like it backed into a building full speed!
@@nasanodia736Fr. I bought that rotf version mainly for it's vehicle mode. Looks really sleek compared to this ss version vehicle mode.
Well-deserved upgrade from his original RoTF figure releases. This one genuinely captures his frame and makes the Audi R8 form feel a lot more completed and whole. This guy was my favorite design from all of Bayformers, I basically saw him as a more suave Barricade, who was already badass despite him being a bunch of metal. Only thing I’m let down by on the figure is his back “plumage” that he’s meant to have, as I fear that was out of the way of the designer’s course.
Another AI comment
@@DiggitySlice eat my pants bot
Seeing up close like this. it's even BETTER than I thought!! Awesome sculpt and overall figure!
Id love to see this retooled into Barricade (yes i know he already has a SS figure but the proportions on this guy would be perfect for a Barricade retool)
As long as they change the mode to the Saleen Mustang
I noticed that the hands for sideways are basically mpm barricades and that made me realize the ss Bari is a bit inaccurate
Maybe the last knight version of him would be the retool
@@tylervanpeursem7627 look at mpm barricade a small bit....it has the arms, but sideways did it COMPLETELY BETTER with no effort. Hope a retool for barricade does happen, but we shall see.
@@sleepysnorlax2114 never liked the design, but we shall see.
Sideways was my favorite con to play as in ROTF (360) good snark, fun moves, cool guns, and a very fun Alt mode!
Sideways made me like Audi’s and while the film did nothing for him, I severely enjoyed my game time with him. I don’t collect the SS much but I’ll have to grab him as a tribute and for good memories
The figure overall, looks amazing, and i will buy it but I have to nitpick one thing-
I hope they release a variant of this figure, in the colors of the original 2009 toy.
That Silver, Black, and bright red (with the pink-like colors for the windows), personally, makes that figure pop, in contrast to the silver and dark grey the new figure has.
And maybe, since they are delving into the games, give us his Rifle weapon?
They could definitely do that! I do hope we can see more SS repaints in future!
Hope DNA Design can add a rear engine part for a real Audi R8 look.
Here’s the thing: the unlicensed vehicle mode makes this able to be generations-selected into all the repaints I KNOW we want
He looks very nice, can't wait to buy him. The car mode is like a hatchback styled Audi R8. Hopefully we get more Bayverse videogame inspired characters in SS too.
I agree! I think overall this turned out great!
Honestly, I like both this SS Rendition and Original Figure of this character. I'm so looking forward to get this guy and the original ROTF Deluxe Version!! Nice review as always PVP my friend!!
Yeah, I'm torn on loving the Original's vehicle mode and the SS Robot mode.
This guy looks pretty cool. They definitely got inspiration from barricade making this guy. Also can't wait for that DOTM Bumblebee he looks good too. I remember seeing that brand new figure when ss released the ROTF Bumblebee and it just look so good, I don't bother them re-tooling it for the DOTM version, the mold is amazing, imagine it with a totally decked out paint job
I have waited so long for this moment
Prime vs prime you have earned my subscription and likes on your videos and sideways studio series has the look of the game
You know what? I had no interest in this guy back in 2009 (when I was 8). My original Sideways’ limbs are scattered across my old toy bins somewhere. Never really liked him. But now that this guy is revealed, I’m totally digging it and picking him up. I just hate how they did the Audi R8.
Edit: if you were careful enough, you could probably carve out your own slots so the ball joint can be an ankle tilt.
Omg, I LOVE weapon integration. I mean, come on, that’s so cool looking!
Haha yes I know what you mean! The OG toy sadly never stayed together too well! & I don’t know if I’m brave enough to start carving into him haha
Finally a competent review of this figure! Haha thanks for showcasing the proper transformation. I think he looks awesome and I can't wait to get him!
I been waiting for this figure for a long time
Me too! Haha
Back in 2008, Sideways was my favorite character to play in Revenge of the Fallen video game for ps2, I hope this figure arrives here in Brazil soon!
My only complain in that I wish he had two guns to put on each arm, to simulate his special in the game XD
I’m definitely gonna get two to repaint one into the purple rotf legends class one we got back in the day (override? I think) and they have grippy hands so I can give the other one whatever I want for weapons
the movie and games came out in 2009 not 2008
@@bingbong3406 Yes it was override which is a female decepticon and she was blue with neon yellow stripes
No worries, maybe we could ask 3rd party to make him gun weapons.
Never got the deluxe version but I did get the legion class version (which is surprisingly not broken) but obviously that doesn't scale with the studio series sideswipe so I'm definitely getting this
The legion version always looked pretty nice!
Imagine this figure with MPM qualities that would be amazing!
Haha insane!
I’m BLESSED that Sideways has got a toy of Studio Series for himself!
A character I only enjoyed from the game but WOW this is ridiculously awesome 😀 Sideways definitely is a must buy asap
Wish he was at least a coupe and not a hot-hatch and came with his Sniper Rifle from the ROTF Game but still looks worth getting
Yeah, finally the obscure Decepticon character is here, Sideways 😄! I know it, Hasbro and Takara Tomy will create this Decepticon in Studio series line 😃. I am truly huge fan of Sideways because i very like this design 😊. I will pick up Sideways to add in my Transformers collection 🤖 😊. Thank you for reviewing this super cool obscure Decepticon character, PrimevsPrime 😊!
I laughed so hard when I saw weapon storage, Great figure love sideways!
great review! I did not like the figure that much when he was leaked but now looking at him, he looks very cool
This studio series Sideways is amazing! 🤩
Agreed!
He looks awesome! I love designs that have oversized arms. I will say I wish there weren't so many silver Studio Series figures. I feel like that paint won't last too long. 😅
And the bad part is I have been anticipating this figure just for them to basically ramold vehicle parts onto barricade with a new face
Ah... A premold for Barricade! 👏🏾 Not gonna pick this up, but looking forward to seeing their Barricade though. 👍🏾
As a kid, when I saw rotf the first time in theaters, he immediately became my favourite new addition to the bayverse, and I got his legends class figure. Now, as an adult, I finally get a more accurate and perfectly scaled figure! All I wish now, is for Hasbro and takara to revive the legends class bayverse line.... (Under the core class name)
*PvP transforms and presents Sideways correctly over another reviewer who had no idea what he was doing*
“See that wasn’t so hard?!”
Chefatron really be trying to make up his own complaints about shit 😂😂
Still would hope they make a studio series breakaway because that jet mode was very sweet a d been considering painting it into USAF or USN markings so cleverly display it on an aircraft carrier like diorama
I had Deluxe Breakaway and he was one of my favorite figures. His robot mode was very accurate to what he looks like in the video game. Plus his jet mode was pretty cool.
@@thefoxygamer1536 for a deluxe and being based on the f-35 and a bayformers, it qas a very clean jet, and i even day the viyager starscream was amazing in it's time too, specially that the 2007 was the priginal basis, now i wanna get breakaway and repaint him in usn or usaf markings and decals
Now I REEEALLY can't wait to get this guy! 😄
Fr tho, I wasn't expecting a video review so soon; I too am disappointed with how anticlimactic his end was (Armada!Sideways being one of my favorite Transformers), moreso with how the video games gave him more characterization.
Speaking of which, I absolutely ADORE that gun, especially knowing it comes from the video games! I'm also enthused the vehicle mode has the actual black that all other Sideways toys lack, and think the car resembles the audi more closely than Dinos did an Italia.
As for his robot mode, I'm VERY relieved about the back kibble, tho admittedly I've some reservations about the arms being ball jointed. I don't mind the height tho, cos it ties with his bio about hiding behind larger decepticons.
Again, I'm VERY ecstatic Studio Series has provided us Sideways!
I hope the upgrade kit improves the vehicle mode.
SIDEWAYS ABSOLUTELY crushes barricade! Amazing Figure 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Ya definitley changed my Mind on him, when i first saw him in the Leaks i was really Disappointed.
But seeing this made all that go away, gonna Pick him up when i can, really liked him in the Games^^
His Alt Mode is definitley the weakest Part but that Bot Mode is really awesome!
Great Review PvP^^
Look at that figure's back. Wow. So smooth. Back lives matter!
Looks pretty cool. Kind of looks like a blend of Sideswipe and Barricade. I decided to take a break from collecting with the recent price hike, but I am tempted to make an exception for this one.
Yeah he does fit in well, and yeah I see your point on taking a break.
the robot mode is awesome looking, the car mode is awesome looking and the transformation is also cool. a pretty decent figure
He's joining my Transformers Studio Series Decepticons shelf. 😁 Thanks for the review PvP.
Thanks so much for checking it out!
I got Sideways last Christmas and couldn’t transform him because I didn’t know what to do with the legs. Thank you so much I got him transformed now yaaaaaaayyy
12:02 I'm pretty sure that Sideways was a licensed Audi R8 in the video game.
Oh wow really? I always thought it was stylised
and especially in the MOVIE!
This is my first transformer and I love it
i want to collect all of the ss rotf, so this is interesting. starting with the constructicons
I left a comment on an older ss review detailing how badly i wanted this figure to be made. And now that its here, i am beyond satisfied. This is a definite pre-order for me 🤤
Not that I think it's likely to happen in any capacity, but I'd love to see a repaint/remold of this fella as ROTF deluxe dead end, always enjoyed his little appearance as a vampire-type in the comics
something too is great job at transforming him correctly compared to other's videos!
In the Shanghai scene sideways leaps through the building when pursued by the trio before he converts in his R8 transformation and split in half.
Wow. This actually looks amazing! I wasn’t so sure and was very weary of whether I was gonna get this guy. But the images I have seen do not do this guy Justice. He actually looks really good and some cool engineering.
Luckily I decided to be patient instead of looking at leaked photos.
As my main back in the days of the ROTF game, imma pick this up.
I can’t see any real flaw
He s over cool!
And looking at him much more clearly than on screen i really looks like Barricade (the window-wing, the hand, the legs, the wheels on the arms)
I really think more than ever he was ment to be barricade
Can’t wait to have it
Thanks for the review, dude !
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR A REMAKE OF THIS CHARACTER FOR YEARS. AND THEY FINALLY DID IT. LETS GOOO
Even for it being deluxe class, this figure looks and feels like it could be MASTERPIECE quality.
Nah. Not with that backpack. I can imagine 3rd party ones done better than this.
@@imranbecks Even mpm 08 Megatron has a meh backpack.
You know as someone who couldn't wait I really don't like this figure he does look disproportionate to what we saw in the movie however if they start putting out game characters and put that on the package and also remake this a little better down the line than I'll be happy but I will have to settle for this I guess
I remember when the original side ways figure came out. It was my favorite deception back then glad they made this. Just bought one online
I recently learned that on the rotf toy you can file down the pointed tab on the spine to allow the roof panels to fold up higher and closer to the body, the strut even has grooves for the wheels in the torso so I'm sure it's intentional, just been lost to time like animated shockwave's ab crunch,
Also the old official images for sideways and dead end make me upset, almost none of them have the torso altered at all, Christ sake guys the ball joint and hinge combo on the front fenders let's you pull them outwards and turn them almost vertical, and those little triangular flaps on the collar exist exclusively to be flipped up
Sideways looks exactly like barricade but in a different form. You see familiar to his head and shoulders
I think what would have been cool was that he came with another car which is about his size in car mode and have the split gimmick!
I love how much detail SS puts into their figures by the way I can stand sideways without the chicken stand
Pretty cool! I had the original I think, I loved it, I always thought Sideways was awesome lol, his vehicle mode in this version looks pretty good, but the rear looks so chunky, I guess because of all the stuff that goes there? Makes it look like one of those kit car bodies that gets put over top a Toyota MR2 chassis, the front has a lot of Zenvo ST1 in it, which is cool
Studio series have finally answered our prayers!
Wonder if a third party company would give him his mines and sniper from the game.
Oh that would be kinda awesome! Maybe a DNA design gear master pack!
Sideways figure looks cool, it's beautiful. It will look good along with the Baricade. I hope it will soon be sold in Russia.
Now we just need the fallen and the ice cream twins
Yeah, looking at Google image of the 2009 R8, I can safely say that the original deluxe figure has the more "accurate" design. But I am liking the SS compromise. The back reminds me of a Honda Civic, which I like those designs.
Is the new wave already hitting stores yet, or is it just pre-orders for now?
I already have sideways holding sideswipes head as his price trophy and having one foot stepping on the chest of the headless body of sideswipe
Love the barricade looking head
this is so amazing i can't wait for the new transformers studio series deluxe class Revenge of the fallen sideways and i can't wait for it to come out in stores on fall 2022
I like that he had a similar body style as Barricade, just slightly more broader and his face is a little wider.
I really hope they integrate those hands into a DOTM barricade, as they are exactly the same.
Me too! It’s so much nicer done than barricade!
I love how these bayverse decepticon figs just fall apart into slim and spiked pieces during the transformation
The Shape of it looks pretty good and the alt mode looks even more good
For not being in a lot of stories Sideways has two solid toys under his belt.
I finally got my copy of sideways today and holy cow the wait was worth it!! He's so amazing looking and I'm glad hasbro got him right. Yeah the car mode isn't accurate but it's still awsome. The gun was a nice addition from the ps2/wii version of the game. Thank you hasbro!! Here's hoping DNA makes his chain whip or his saw blade weapons
I gotta say, Sideways has got to be one of my favorite Studio Series figures.
Please tell me is it in stores now
I had the original Sideways figure so I cant wait to get this one. Great review as always!
This figure persuaded me alot
thank you for the help on transforming Sideways
Looks nice and menacing in bot mode like a good(?) decepticon should and the vehicle mode looks pretty sweet, too. Shame they couldn't find a way to split him in two! 🤣
Haha to have had him split would’ve been soo cool!
Agreed
Maybe for a movie master piece
