    Can anyone shoot a quick side on shot for the jet mode showing the amount of undercarriage kibble?

    This is about as sold on a figure as I've been in the last 6 months.

    The alt mode is great looking, his head looks a bit small in robot mode and his rail gun could use some work, but overall a great figure!

    Oh, and the kibble on his undercarriage is minimal

    Just got this guy from crankcase76 Thanks man
    he a great figure and the transformation really good...but the only thing is that he SMALL ! and his arm keeps popping out when transforming also.... wish they made this in voyager size it would be even greater... And its a nice touch that they included the comic . he doesn't really fit any where in my collection as he is even smaller then the prime deluxes > actually he fit in with the WST ...well in jet mode they same size

    Thanks for that!

    Finally cracked and ordered this over the weekend, arrived today.

    In a brief capsule - function without inspiration.

    Decent looking robot folds up into basically a flat square with a cockpit and wings partsform attach to the sides.

    Saw it MOSC in hand yesterday. Looks real nice, but the guy selling it wouldn't bring the price under $30; and getting it from Amazon would be about $9 cheaper incl. postage. So I've ordered this toy (plus some other of his casemates) from Amazon now. The guy from the toy store would've had an instant sale from me if he'd even been willing to bring it down to $25; it'd still be a few dollars more than what Amazon would cost, but I'd have the toy by now! Oh well.

    I got one a couple of weeks ago just because I saw photos of the robot mode and though it looked sweet. Gotta say I like it! The colour scheme is sweet and despite it's size it seems 'large' and imposing. The transformation is fiddly as hell and I found it a bit tricky to get all the pieces to line up correctly in his altmode but once you get it right it looks good.

    Something different to have a panelforming jet. Nothing difficult with the transformation as long as you get things in order. You don't need the instructions as it all comes into place with a few twists and turns.

    Nice alt mode, menacing as heck robot mode, the blades flipping out looks great.

    Mine is really loose in the joints, however it seems a rare thing so I highly recommend this figure especially if you are a fan of the IDW comics, and worth it even moreso if you get the bonus comic, which is a brilliant standalone and something I am glad Hasbro/IDW have put together.
