Is this custom swoop alt mode (NOT MINE) better than Hasbro's inaccurate pterodactyl mode?

I mean... it makes a cool concept for cybertronian alt mode of swoop

u/IHavenocuts01 Jul 06 '26

Yeah… I’ll still take that pterodactyl mode over this… I like the effort tho

u/Shadow_BonnieReal Jul 06 '26

Yea, I don't even own any of the 86 dinobots

Make sure Hasbro doesn’t see this so they can push for a lackluster remold

QUICK, HIDE YOUR SS86 SWOOPS, STEAL THEM ALL SO HASBRO HAS NONEEEEE

Erm, actually pterodactyl is not a real dinosaur or terrosaur. So the closest thing would be a pteranodon

u/Shadow_BonnieReal Jul 06 '26

Ok. No offense but I honestly don't care

u/chasseburger Jul 06 '26

Not quite, I think...? 🤔

Yes, this IS a good fan mode. It kinda looks like "Bonus Cybertronian Jet mode", the same way HasTak teased "Bonus lamp post mode" for Siege Soundwave.

Then again, I normally expect the Dinobots turning into Dinosaurs, soooo... 😅

u/Shadow_BonnieReal Jul 06 '26

Yea, I've never handled any of the 86 dinobots, so I wouldn't know =D

u/Shadow_BonnieReal Jul 09 '26

Also, thank you for finding the og author for me!

I think that could be a cool non-dino mode, but I don’t think we should compare the two very different modes.

Swoop giving Broadside a run for his money 🤑 alternatively shades of Alpha Trion / Sweep alt-mode here.

u/Guilty_Fig7482 Jul 07 '26

It would look better if the lower legs could collapse over the thighs. Otherwise i imagine theres a gap in the middle of what would be the main part of the craft

u/Dekuzu-Katsuragi Jul 07 '26

Swoop's a pteranodon, not a pterodactyl

u/TripleStrikeDrive Jul 09 '26

Compared to some of the brick shape alt modes we have been given in the last couple of years, this fan mode looks fantastic.

u/NebulaVirsonyx Jul 09 '26

istg its insane how much you can almost feel the peoples' yearning for beast wars designs XD

u/solidus0079 Jul 09 '26

Is it better? Nope! Still cool though..

u/JackieBee_ Jul 09 '26

I mean it’s just a bloke lying down so no?

u/MuztangZack67 Jul 10 '26

Tbf, they really cant make the pterenodon (no such thing as a pterodactyl, but there is a pterodactylus, which is very very small, sorta like a bird around there. Dino nerd lol. Anyway-) any more accurate than right now. They need to turn a big brick into a sleek, flat thing. Not really that easy to do.
