He is a really bad shot. (could be he drinks too much of his own product at his bar) Maybe giving this Swerve release a musket laser isn’t the brightest idea. He is a really bad shot.

I always liked him even before I read the one Marvel US comic where he gets to do things. I can't even say why. I liked the blue minivan, I guess? And he's not even a minivan. Me too, Magellan.

Love it. But I'm not counting on it. Hasbro's current focus is PRIME and FOC. (Totally fine with FOC focus!) - so I wouldn't expect any Generations toys out unless they make FOC Skids, which would be all kinds of so much awesomes! I would love that. Love it.

I guess Kup is such a unique character that it's hard for me to see him as a common body-type, I feel like it'd have to be another old-timer and there's not many of them.

I hope Hasbro releases it, it'd certainly be serviceable as him, but the resurgence in popularity due to MTMTE might make Hasbro consider investing in an entirely new mold for him. Fingers crossed.

RTS Jazz mold is all kinds of perfects. 2.) We NEED a good, new Skids. 3.) Skids > Wheelie (but it looks like we're getting Wheelie anyway...) That would be awesome. 1.)

He's always been a favorite of mine for no justifiable reason. I just hope MTMTE gets Hasbro to pay attention to Skids. He’s always been a favorite of mine for no justifiable reason.

Swerve is supposed to be small. Quest small in fact. So I do keep Encore Swerve in my MTMTE shelf (and yes, I have a MTMTE Shelf...lol). I may re-purpose this version as Gun Runner or some Generic guy, but I do like how he looks.
