Sideswipe is an autobot from the Transformers series.
Bio[edit | edit source]
An original part of the crew when Optimus Prime crash-landed his Ark upon planet Earth, Sideswipe spent some four million years slumbering in stand-by mode until he spontaneously transformed into a Lamborghini in 1984. Borne from the act of clank as his brother Sunstreaker, Sideswipe doesn't bother with the elitist attitude of his sibling, but doesn't particularly care about martial ethics, either.
Being a rough-and-tumble type of machine, Sideswipe embodies the concept of the valiant warrior that doesn't give a damn about elaborate battlefield tactics so long as he can new produce to the local scrapyard. This makes him somewhat of a Miles Gloriosus, but Sideswipes skill in decommissioning other transformers (and his dogged refusal to stay dead) make him a vital tool in the arsenal of the autobots.
In 8chanmania[edit | edit source]
Sideswipe appeared during 8chanmania LXXXII, where he served as the manager of Optimus Prime. He congratulated his boss after the latter trashed the Robot Attack Unicorn, but found no words when Prime himself got wrecked by Knuckles.
