The Siege line really seems to be just: "How many guns do you want?" "Yes."

@darthpaulx 5 жыл бұрын

The others didn't get enough guns. Like Sideswipe need his g1 gun which didn't came with the figure. Red alert is getting the gun but he has to miss the rocket launcher on his shoulder. Hound has this gun for alt mode but isn't really his robot gun. Ironhide misses his gun and get a hammer/ rocket launcher instead. Luckily Prowl got his gun. He doesn't have any shoulder canons to begin with in the cartoon. So he's good. Luckily it gets better since Mirage is getting his shoulder missile and his gun. Same with Smokescreen and i think also Bluestreak. Not getting the whole set of weapons they should get, was to make us buy battle masters in the beginning. I still want a gun for Sideswipe and Ironhide. My Skyfire ( Jetfire ) will be spreading out his guns for others. :D

5:08 That's his weathering/battle damage. Originally or in the CG (and maybe promotional) images (or was it the prototype...) it looked (light) grey. But it seems they decided to just choose another type of white to make it very subtle so you only see it in certain angles of view and for folks who don't like the weathering and battle damage of the SIEGE line.

It's probably been mentioned already but in jet mode there's actually a larger set of tab slots on the inside of those chest pieces that will hold much more securely to the plank that's attached to the head. Granted it can be a pain to get them tabbed in because there's a bit of give to the plastic but it holds A LOT better if you're able to get them connected.

And of course you always throw in a few jabs and jokes lol 😂 Sillyness aside, the figure looks quite good, but I think it could be at least 20 dollars cheaper for you get here (as you essentially say in the review). I unfortunately don't think many of the figures hasbro puts out in this size class has had a lot of success in my opinion. Not as strong, not as stable, and in some cases, rather hollow feeling 😕 Eh all in all, the bigger figures (and some normal sized ones) are not really as good as they could be. Sorry for the long comment 😅 btw

@90lancaster 4 жыл бұрын

I just got him. so some 1st thoughts. The backpack is in the down position in the packet so that needs to be compacted out of the box The long slim guns that sit on his back actually fit on the rectangular tabs on the side of the backpack not the ports on the wings - you can see this on he back of box image. He totally would benefit from a set of Matrix Workshop ears if you'd rather have a Jetfire look than a Skyfire look. I was disappointed that there is no obvious way to store the chest piece on his back when not in use there doesn't even seem to be an immediately obvious way to put it on his arm either. I like how the blasters split but as they lack any kind of 5mm hole you can't back mount them which is "annoying". His ankle rockers are a bitch to work - so stiff they won't move. As for the effects parts I'm please to say I got an extra part with mine - so to many is better than to few I guess. I like him enough to want to buy him an upgrade when someone eventually makes one to make him look less Skyfireish and more Jetfireish. I miss the giant rocket boosters. Overall he's "Nice" fortunately Amazon UK had him £20 off so I feel a bit better about the price than I might have done if i'd paid £75 for him.

@90lancaster 4 жыл бұрын

OK now the jet mode, I agree with Balt' the front of the plane seems like a lazy after thought compared to what it should be like. Some of the tabs can be a pain to line up too. I'm not so keen on so much of the jet sticking out the back like it does. with so much empty space on the belly it seems bleeding obvious that the armour piece should be doing double duty as a belly plate (which it doesn't). Oddly the whole thing seriously lack ports and posts to put accessories on - which considering the line wide gimmick seems like a huge over sight to me. So over all nice Robot - middling vehicle - unimpressive play gimmicks, some issues with the design of the ratchets and weapon functions. Decent but nothing spectacular - sort of Transformers shovelware really - worth buying for the novelty of being Skyfire I suppose to those who like Skyfire - and he jet mode sort of complements the tetrajets - I'm sure I will grow to like him a bit more over time once I've had chance to play with him more. Let me put it this way ; I like it enough that I'd buy a KO underscale or overscale of it and also a Black Official Repaint - but I wouldn't want to see it be the default Jetfire rereleased over and over for the next 10 years either as though it's "fine" it could be a lot better - hopefully some 3rd party upgrades will address some of those quirks in time.
