The '''Swingman''' is a creature from ''[[Rayman Origins]]'' and ''[[Rayman Legends]]''. As its name implies, its role in the game is similar to the role of [[flying ring]]s in ''[[Rayman 1|Rayman]]'', [[purple Lum]]s in ''[[Rayman 2]]'' and the [[Flying hook]]s from ''[[Rayman 3]]'', in that they are used by [[Rayman]], [[Globox]] and the [[Teensie]]s to swing across wide gaps in the environment. It is a flying blue blob-like creature with a small purple hat and angel-like wings, that protrudes swinging arms to grab the heroes as they come near it (up to four arms at a time). Unlike the [[Fakir]]s and swinging vines, Swingmen have a more predictable management in multiplayer mode, as both the Fakirs and swinging vines require various players to control one single swinging element, while the Swingmen's multiple arms let the players have their own swinging element; The swingmen, however, move their arms automatically, and can't be controlled by the players who holds their hands.

Swingmen also appear in ''[[Rayman Jungle Run]]'' and ''[[Rayman Fiesta Run]]''; Rayman has to grab their hand and jump with precise timing in order to acquire all of the [[Lum (Rayman Origins)|Lums]].

[[Platformman]] seems to have a close relation with Swingman.
