Swerve TFP

Swerve (スワーブ Suwābu) tends to get lost in his own thoughts a lot. Which is pretty dangerous when he's driving through traffic. An incredibly intelligent geologist, he's vital to the Autobots' mission on Earth, scouting out energon deposits and other resources with the sensors in his arms. He tends to work alone, simply sending reports back to base as he roams the planet. Swerve resembles Breakdown. Except the paint job.

"Enemy of My Enemy"
Following the restoration of Cybertron from the Great War, Swerve was one of the many Autobots blacklisted by the new High Council for being a supporter of Optimus Prime.

Trivia
