BadCube SteamRoll (Sideswipe)

[@AlexReynard]

Bobby, you ain't right. I got Steamroll today and I'm incredibly happy with him. Everything locks in just fine on mine. Possibly the problem is, I can see you don't have the backpack/windshield slid in all the way. Just nudge those grey tabs in as far as they'll go, and the back will slide in completely. Once you do that, zero problems. And I have NO idea what you mean about the materials feeling cheap. Light, yes, but I feel completely confident in it.

[@thugg4lif]

This is the best mp sideswipe in 2018 he poses nicely with his brother mp sunstreak - nice job bad cube

[@chrisjones7300]

Thanks Bobby. I love your reviews. I think I am going to go for this figure as (like you always say) personal choice. It was really useful to see it in hand and on video from an honest reviewer I trust

[@potbelliesornaments7253]

Good review...2 things: - when putting on the pile drivers, you have to open the hands before collapsing them into the forearm... otherwise nothing will sit right.... It's in the instructions. - for the hood gimmick, you DO NOT open where the hood meets the wind screen... Rather it is at the seem right below that. That too is in the instructions. Other than that, you made some good observations. That said, I do think that this is a better figure than the MP. for everything that you say detracts from it's completed look, I can point to the same thing about the official...(the gappy knees on BC Vs. the hollow legs on the official, ETC...). it's all subjective.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

potbellies ornaments the hood part was just for the gag buddy. But this one was stuck in there pretty good

[@PaulSpurgeon]

Agreed, Bobby. I'm overall happier with the product than you, Steamroll replaced the official Takara on my MP shelf due to the cartoon-accurate aesthetics, but he feels a bit cheap.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

Paul Spurgeon exactly

[@razingst0rm]

I picked up the Red Alert, and...I like the difference on the shelf from Takara 'Swipe, but I gotta agree about the cohesiveness. Nothing in the torso feels like it's secured, and that makes it a bit un-fun to handle. I'll keep it because the Takara Red looks like Sideswipe in cosplay, but these should be at the $60 price point, not $85-$90. Have a good one.

[@dereknathaniel5316]

Geezus... "Flip out this panel, that panel, turn this tiny nob, rotate this hinge, pull out this peg, orient this panel with that panel, swing your partner round and round, clap your hands and wipe that frown..." This is why I am more than happy with CHUG. Masterpiece is bad enough, but 3rd party masterpiece is insane! Great review as always though, thank you sir.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

Derek Nathaniel lol. For real. I lol’d

[@1andonlyhoncho]

Dude; more of this comedic editing! Hilarious 😂

[@lancesmith4390]

Bobby, thanks, and as expected, your truth was very sufficient, I would have to agree with you, most bad cube products come out of the box then placed on the shelf, so this one might do the same, thanks for the review, its me.....

[@trent7736]

Thanks for a great birthday video Bobby. I've been wanting to see this for a while.

[@therealcybertronwarriors]

I often see this comment in the forums and such, “(name of figure) is better because it’s cartoon accurate.” I understand where they are coming from, but I feel it’s a subjective preference and not objective fact. Had they said, “I prefer (named figure) more because it’s cartoon accurate.”, then I would fully back their comment. I feel today from a certain crowd, quality is somehow dependent on cartoon accuracy and not actually the quality of the figure. Happy for them, but it does create a distortion in the market. Oh yes, and as always, great video and insight as always buddy.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

Cybertron Warriors EXTREMELY WELL PUT!!!

[@dannyvestal299]

Shout out to Crotch Storage!! Thanks for the vid Bobby!!

[@MosheMaserati]

I do love the look of it. I'm going to look into 3D printing fuller knees if there's space and clearance for them in alt mode. All in all, Skullface didn't trash it and that's good enough for me.

[@TheShadowKarl]

It is funny about the light weight feeling cheap but I got the BadCube Insecticons and they too were light but they're holding up beautifully to a lot of transformations and play. I got the three pack and gave Kickback to my 9 year old who is ten now and Scrapnel to my 5 year old who is 6 now and I kept Bombshell because that is the one I specifically wanted. My kids have played non-stop with theirs for the last year and a half and I have messed with Bombshell quite a bit and man they're holding up so well. No breaks, no stress marks, still hold poses beautifully (no wobbly joints after all this time) and I have been happily surprised. If they're an indication of the quality of other BadCube Transformers it is a real shame they're no longer making Transformers. I thought at first their light weight might indicate sub-standard build materials but it sure hasn't worked out that way. The gaps in a few key places are distracting but I think it looks better than Takara's offering. I would have taken the BadCube over Takara any day of the week.

[@travissall]

Great points, I got pulled in on this guy for that smaller chest and cartoon aesthetics, I’m a sucker for that. Always appreciate the truth straight from the skull’s mouth, even if its not the truth I was hoping for. An ugly truth is a whole lot better then a beautiful lie.

[@theintangiblecog5157]

I love the way he looks, but those sliders have some scary thin plastic. I've dealt with enough toys to know, that thin plastic sliders and loops for tabbing are the first things to break. I picked up MP SS last summer, so I might be a little biased there too. Anyway, thanks for your honest opinion Mr. Skullface.

[@johnlatella674]

Just bought the takara offering but ur review is making me kinda second guess my chose thanks for the review Skully dude u had me laughing hard when u took out the toenail clippers

[@gmon78]

If you just see this with nothing nearby for scale it just looks like a legend.

[@-Skaal-]

Breakdown of X-Tranbots is amazing !!!

[@jaraxel888]

Your reviews just got more entertaining...

[@CardboardBots]

A well done review and transformation instruction video.

[@Dokken1975]

Great and fair review man!

[@spot138]

I think BC might have over-estimated the demand for these guys. The old MPs are still pretty good - I cant see too many people swapping them out for these guys. Red Alert's look is different enough to be kind of tempting though. If they took a stab at a figure that could really use an upgrade like Tracks I think people would be a lot more interested / excited.

[@thirty3255]

I love this figure, but hope to one day find his kneecaps. They must have flown out of the packaging when I opened the box. Very fair review.

[@DennisMoultonAKAGotBot]

As I watched this, I had the same thought over and over. Badcube has had a spotty history and their last couple of releases seemed to be doing more things right and, maybe, we were on the cusp of seeing them turn a corner for the better. However, while this Sideswipe is okay, it feels like someone was digging in a back room, found a sketch book with an old plan to do this guy and said, "Oh yeah, we did toy with the idea of doing Sideswipe. Let's flesh this old idea out a bit and boom, new figure." It feels like a bit of a step back. Plus, while I gripe about MP not being perfect as I feel something with the moniker of the word Masterpiece SHOULD be, the actual Sideswipe mold DID turn out pretty well and though a few things are done better here, was he needed? Like, Starscream is a mold that is trash, so Meteor, arguably, was definitely needed. With this release, I kinda just shrug and say okay, options are good...I guess.

[@jamesgaultier2949]

OK the Optimus jetpack is cool!

[@dominicfeliciano9462]

Name: Sideswipe. Faction: Autobot. Function: Warrior. Vehicle mode: Lamborghini Countach. Motto:” I don’t break rules, I bend them… a lot.”

[@mossmurphy8856]

great review, i may consider buying this guy

[@okiwillusemyrealname]

Pretty sick you shouted out my dad lol

[@antoniovistcoatis1541]

No switch out for this. Sticking with Takara Sideswipe.

[@cadsux]

I bought Recon/Red Alert because I want something better than the "fake-arms" Takara version. By having shoulder-mounted doors and the front wheels, plus a different arm socket consisting of a double-swivel armature, it makes for some awkward articulation & transformation. I'm with you about the light plastic.

[@masterskinny6944]

I did need this fellow but I think I’m going with Tarkara

[@robin2thek]

Ok now it’s time to sub to you. Keep up the good job!

[@DolkkarToyznstuff]

It seems cool to me, but not cool enough to swap out with my Official MP. Fantastic review as always!

[@BiggTigger]

Pop,pop up and down headlights!!

[@steelman296]

180° rotation on the head section, rotating it 360° Will put it to the original position. 👍 but still would say if you're wanting a MP style Sideswipe, stick with the official or even the KO release.

[@christopherjohnson261]

Shared in my group TF3PUK as always with your 3rd party Goodness

[@Alzeal07]

It looks better than the official alongside sunstreaker.

[@AdriaCalais]

I think this thing looks incredible so I’m sure I’ll love it. It’s a favorite company and a favorite character for me so I’m very very biased. Can’t wait for it to come in the mail. I’m not sure what to think about that breakdown. I’m sure it’s as good as advertised but I can’t get past that his plastic looks like skin to me.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

DrewsiferXXX hope you enjoy it!

[@kalajel]

I guess you really need to have it in hand and manipulate it because otherwise he looks really good and worth it.

[@_AlexB_]

Great review dude, love butt guns, hate tape and getting self conscience about my nails. Also thanks to your clear and truthful review and easy to see closeup transformation, i changed my mind about this guy. I don't think i like him anymore. Screw toon accuracy, i just want a bot that looks bada$$ and works.... that butt gun tho..

[@RunAmucck]

I feel that the Red Alert looks a hell of alot better. The Takara version suits Sideswipe better, but this suits Red Alert alot better. The red and white paint applications on Red Alert make it look alot better too, but that's just my opinion.

[@cameronmoriarty3313]

I've seen several people say they thought it was solid. Hopefully 1 or more will comment if it is user error before the Red Alert video. The thing is you showed it wasn't solid compared to them only saying it is solid. Thanks for the review. I did buy these, but as I said on your Discussion video on them I want to support 3P versions of characters Takara has done in hopes they will replace MPs I don't like such as the Datsuns and Tracks.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

Cameron Moriarty I hope you enjoy them

[@AlexReynard]

I just got mine today and I'm completely happy with its solidity. My only complaint is wishing that the side windows tabbed into the forearms, but it's minor considering friction holds them in place just fine. Otherwise, the legs and shoulders peg together nicely, and the reason Bobby's having problems with the chest is that he's got it mistransformed. He's only got the backpack slid in halfway. Once it's all the way in, it holds everything in place really nicely.

[@mark4flair376]

Pass, I'm happy with my MP-12. Thanks for the honest opinion, I now have an extra 90$ to spend on other toys that I don't need.....

[@marvinonstage]

Visually it looks like the next gen of MP figures. Using the new MP-10 as a guide. I like the looks better but I'm not sure about the head

[@TrypticOwen]

I got Recon. I think you might like him better. I, too, was surprised by the lightness - and by how much different of a product it is than Huff v2. On Recon, the back pack secures more firmly, the arms transform differently and, in my opinion, the face sculpts are better. I originally passed on Takara's Sideswipe because I thought the vehicle mode was a mess of transformation seams. Eventually I caved in and bought G2 'swipe (maybe the black hides the panel lines better, maybe I just love G2) and I'm glad I did. While I get where you coming from on Badcube vs Takara for 'swipe; I would judge Badcube as having a much clearer win on Red Alert.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

TrypticOwen we’ll see shortly

[@TrypticOwen]

Intriguing! Looking forward to hearing what you've got to say. :-)

[@doro626]

CHest width is a huge stumbling block to me getting the takara official. Now I have to deal with those knees.

[@Sportimus]

BC's Sideswipe is the weaker of the two. I got both this and their Recon (Red Alert) because I wanted both. I like this Sideswipe (not as much as MP-12), but the surprise hit is BC's Recon (Red Alert). Better arms, and holds together better and cleans up better. I hope you will review it to see this for yourself. Anyway, nice review. Not bad(Cube). Not bad at all. ;)

[@therock1609]

My big issues with takara's sideswipe is head too small, chest too big...this one is perfect for me

[@3000bigrandy]

same

[@mpcollector8807]

I didn't pick up this guy, but I did get the Red Alert version of the mold and I am still not sure how I feel about him. I think I like him more than his Takara counterpart, but not enough to feel like I just picked up the definitive version of the character. I could easily see someone else topping it someday...though I am not so sure I could see myself picking up a fourth iteration of the character...

[@ZenStrive52]

I think Masterpiece Lambor 2.0 is coming.

[@sefy76]

I just bought this guy and received him yesterday (thanks CoronaVirus) and comparing him to the MP-12 that I have, other then the knees which felt incomplete as you mentioned (and the weird shoulder canon piece) i'm actually liking it better, the plastic does "feel" different but the original MP-12 wasn't all that better. You also kind of "mis" transformed his chest area which sticks out thru the video. As for the Backpack, the MP-12 is also pretty bad. The reason i got him, so I would have 3 different Lamborghini's with each transforming totally different (Red Alert I kept the Masterpiece version and of course SunStreaker).

[@jamesgaultier2949]

I've said it before, you need to market an Uncle Bobby B spudger...

[@MultiJamesman]

You can just cut one out of sprue.

[@TimothyLau55]

1:27 That's too private! Thanks for the entertainment again!

[@MultiJamesman]

Already have this character, the MP is pretty good, really just looking for unreleased characters mostly.

[@MisaelCastilloBrenes]

At least for me, the only improvement over the Takara is the chest (imho). It seems to be more posable, that's also a plus. The face sculpt seems a bit off to me, like when two people aren't related but the faces have some resemblance. It happens to be a transformer who is also a red lambo in alt-mode (I can't remember if transformers have rules or laws to get different alt-modes so they aren't confused with each other). It looks like sideswipe, but it doesn't feel like this is sideswipe (once again, imho). And I see that you decided to get Sunstreaker! "Good Gooooood" (Read with Emperor Palpatine's voice)

[@biodroidtfew302]

Great review. To the point, no beating around the bush, and fair in its pros and cons. For me who was on the edge of trying this one, you definitely helped in my decision to let it pass. Would have kept MP-12 anyway though. Cause he's my first MP ever and, well, he's awesome.

[@jeremynelson7920]

I wanted these so bad just for the collapsible chest and the fact that Alert has his doors hanging along the arms like the toy and I believe animation. My problem is that Steamroll is significantly taller than the official Sideswipe and Sideswipe is supposed to be a tad shorter than Sunstreaker. That was the deal breaker for me since I'm a sunbow chart scale nut.

[@eyescovered]

i like it, i win!

[@mr.mccracken9034]

Received recon (red alert) yesterday because I never purchased the official and I am happy with how that figure turned out but I will not be switching out my mp-12+ for this guy. The backpack plugs in more secure on recon which is nice but the shoulders annoy me.

[@Xsis_Vorok]

I'm not switching out my Sideswipe for this. Just not enough to justify it. Since I don't have a Red Alert, I may pickup Recon. Anyways, Bobby, just be you. I don't need you to stoke my ego. ;)

[@stxemo]

Idk anymore. I was kinda set on getting him but the more I think about it I just dont know. I already have a sideswipe. Dont look as good but do I really need a new one? Really get the noggin jogging.

[@r.c.r.vankempen9235]

thank you sir, you confirmed my feelings about this guy. Just saved my wallet $80,-

[@johnbirkenmaier6641]

Good morning Bobby! I have been waiting on this review from you. I was shocked that BadCube was going to make both sideswipe and Red Alert, since Official versions are already out. I’m going to hold off on getting this guy, because I don’t think he is a better replacement than Takara’s Sideswipe. His robot mode does seem cleaner than Lambor, but I agree that his proportions do seem to be off. And his price point is twice what XTB Crackup is, And I think Crackup is a far better figure for the money. He doesn’t have the premium finish that most Masterpiece figures have, and I think that’s what is turning me off in getting this. I do know that their Red Alert does have a completely different transformation than Sideswipe, and I hope you get the chance to review that figure as well. Considering the $85.00 price, I think my money is going to get me an XTB Cliffjumper over this. Thanks as always for the great review!

[@VRHyoumaru]

It's just kind of strange that this doesn't come off at all like a BadCube product, and seeing all this, I hope it's not their attempt at a new standard. At least it seems to transform easier, a little bit.

[@stephaniemckeever7092]

VRHyoumaru agreed...no where near as fidly as sunsurge and sentinal blaze

[@AlexReynard]

I've bought their Trailbreaker, Warpath, Outback and Sunstreaker. Just got Steamroll today, and yes, it is the easiest one of theirs to transform. Still complicated, but you're not fighting too-tight parts. Once you figure out where stuff goes, parts tab in with satisfying snugness.

[@mayadawnfisher3222]

I have an MP Sideswipe, so I had no intention of replacing him, but I have not snagged a Red Alert yet, so I was thinking I would pick up the BadCube version, but after seeing this review, I am not so sure. I don't like how those knees look. For some reason it bugs the shit out of me. I noticed that this Sideswipe transforms a little differently from their Red Alert, which is awesome so it is not a straight up repaint. But they still share the same damned weird knees. BadKnees instead of BadCube, am I right? All kidding aside, the proportions do seem a bit off in the arms, which is unfortunate, because aside from those and the knees, I really dig the look of the bot mode over the official Sideswipe. I like the narrower and sleeker profile, and the alt mode is absolutely stunning, I feel it is spot on perfect. But at least I have Crackup, which is a 100% satisfying bot and alt mode Lambo for me. Solid review as always, Bobby!

[@Superdimensional]

Josh Fisher take it from someone who’s had both and actually owns it, YOU WILL LOVE THIS FIGURE. Bobby couldn’t even tell the tires were rubber and that it was painted, I think he was half asleep on this review (tuned out due to a lack of interest) don’t let this review sway you... you’ll want a Sideswipe too after buying it!

[@Thetazord]

To me the more accurate cartoon look does it for me. His head could be a bit bigger and you’re right about the cheapness but it just has the right look for my shelf. I just need a Cliffjumper, Jazz, Mirage, Bluestreak, Brawn, and Huffer to complete my season 1 G1 Autobots. Oh, and of course all the Dinobots. Damn, still a long way to go, and that’s not even mentioning the Decepticons. I do have Toyworlds Devastator though so that’s almost half of them right there. Lol. If you count Reflector and the Insecticons as 1 (which I am to make myself feel less overwhelmed). Stop typing me. Ok. Now! Stop! ✋ Sorry! NO! ✋

[@demoskunk]

MP Sideswipe's door gaps and thin red paint over the dark plastic allowing it to look too dark on the roof, A pillars, and doors always really bothered me. Takara should do a new one that has the superior head and face sculpt of MP-12 and the great-looking alt mode of SteamRoll.

[@sideswipeg2905]

I'd love to see the Red Alert version of this mould used for Shattered Glass Sideswipe (due to the wheels being on the shoulder.) Just want to know your opinions Bobby. Do you think there would be a market in MP Shattered Glass and would you be interested?

[@MythsAndHeroes]

Sideswipe G2 I would not

[@DMSL2007]

Great review. Not a bad figure, but since i have MP Sideswipe kinda pointless.

[@astartespete]

I like the way it looks well enough, but its not perfect therefore I have no compunction to swap out my existing mp for it, when that does the job well still despite its age (its not perfect either). Great watch as always man.

[@BaldHeadKed]

I was looking forward to this but I'm not too sure now. Do you think the piece has the issues that it does because they rushed it out?

I live Sideswipe and this mold has some great improvements but it's just so plain/cheap looking. Needed more paint or molding. I have a hard time feeling like it's worth $90+.

[@alexandrebelinge8996]

Good review !! It look very plastic maybe just the camera and lighting . Oh man that transformation I had gun dog flashback ... I don't get this approach at this time of the character ... It was redone a bunch of times by takara already ... Generic red car .

[@RCCrawlerz209]

Ain't gonna lie, looks pretty good. Odd transformation on how he comes with a fake chest hood of sorts. 🤔 Other than that, all good in the books.

[@stephaniemckeever7092]

I believe the gun stores on the underside of the vechile mode

[@MythsAndHeroes]

Stephanie Mckeever yep. As shown :)

[@stephaniemckeever7092]

Bobby Skullface L missed that bit first time I watched.lol

[@dj3ntyb01]

You probably figured it out already but the hood doesnt open up from the piece right in front of the windshield, its a bit farther forward, its easy to see on red alert since its different colors, but it opens up at the panel line right in front of where you were trying to open it

[@MythsAndHeroes]

Mlgpapalouie the hood part was just for the gag buddy. But this one was stuck in there pretty good

[@dj3ntyb01]

Bobby Skullface L ah my b, tbh I did the exact same thing when I first opened up recon

[@RCCrawlerz209]

Bobby Skullface L •clips finger nails• LOL

[@masterskinny6944]

How is the plastic quality? Looks kind of cheap.

[@giovannysaenz7627]

not perfect but looks way better than mp 12

[@ViewpointProd]

What is the plastic tool you use?

[@mikagami157]

Cartoon looks aside, this thing looks off to me. His head looks too small and those forearms are just clunky looking. At least it was easier to transform then most Badcube figures, so that's good. But, I don't think this one is for me.

[@jirayasama7]

Couldn't you just say it's good or bad? Lol jk, I still don't have a Sideswipe or Red Alert in my collection. I've been really considering this guy, but it seems like 80 bucks might be too much for this offering. I'm really going to have to think about it. Thanks again for a great review.

[@quickswitchmedia8197]

This is a nice figure. Im not a sucker for sideswipe, but I might get red alert. Which one would you recommend?

[@MtgVeteran]

red alert, you get the arms that takara will never engineer

[@quickswitchmedia8197]

MtgVeteran yeah. Thats what I like about it.

[@famyemil]

And the accurate ALT mode as well

[@famyemil]

Perci Constance Badcube’s Red Alert has a very toon accurate ALT mode look as well.

[@famyemil]

Perci Constance the rear part window of the car is different. It’s not the average Countach. Try Google for some images

[@kingsonny3342]

Hopefully you guys and gals will look up other reviews on this before making a final decision. Bobby is his usual over the top negative self and if you strictly go off of his reviews your Masterpiece shelves would basically be empty. Now don't get me wrong, there is no such thing as the perfect figure and a little bit of criticism is necessary, but Bobby takes it to the EXTREME!

[@MythsAndHeroes]

King Sonny extreeeeeeeeeme

[@animatedplastic]

I like Badcube, but I don't really see why we "needed" these figures from them. There are other figures that I feel would have been a better use of their resources. Maybe they should have done Tracks? I would have liked to have seen a MP Skids as that I believe would complete the Ark Crew right? I honestly kind of lost a little love for them with Huff 2.0 and Piper as I was really looking forward to those figures, but they were sub par and they were really the only ones doing them...I don't even count XTB versions as they are in no way a MP styled figure and can't even stand, but I digress. I wonder if Takara is going to redo a MP Sideswipe with new Engineering for Cartoon accuracy now that this seems to be the direction they are going....only time will tell I suppose, but I think that the reveal of MP OP 3.0 kind of sets the stage.

[@JasonSawyer]

If this were the only Lambo mold on the market? I'd be fine with it. But to pay $90 to swap out? Nah, thanks tho, BadCube. One thing: I do like how they did the hips/hip skirts. I much prefer that over skirts that move on their own. It's annoying. I'll take 90% of the look plus better function, ya know?

[@doro626]

Did you add paint accents to your SUnstreaker or are those black lines in front of the spoiler on the official model?

[@MythsAndHeroes]

doro626 no paint added

[@VanSpence604]

Never too sure about a transformer that I require a tool to transform it.

[@Lawtann2]

If this was below $60 I would snag it. I like the look better than the Takara version. But the price tag after watching your review is not making me want to pull the trigger

[@MythsAndHeroes]

Lawrence Tanner 60$ would be the sweet spot

[@TheMichaelStott]

I've read that point thrown around a lot "Cartoon accurate" besides loving Transformers when I was kid I was a big fan of James Bond movies especially the cars and their gadgets so My dad and I would go to the hobby shop and find the model and make of the car and customise them to have at least one of the main gadgets displayed (the hardest was the Lotus Esprit mini sub) Have you heard of people customising Transformers? or is this a big no no.

[@Th3Treasoner]

I still don't get why companies give their Transformers/transforming robots that can't legally use the Transformers brand name translucent windows. What do I want to do, see all the folded up shit inside? Make it out of the regular plastic, paint it blue/black/white, it's more sturdy.

sort of all falls back on what you used to say Bobby-the fit and finish isn't there, esp if it wants to say it's a Masterpiece.
