All Licensing agreement that we think is an issue is only speculation at best. There isn't any official statement stating from either companies that licensing are a issue. Lot of fans give good assumptions and great guesses. I most welcome anyone with official source to say otherwise, I only find fans talking about it. While the arguments do make sense and I am not saying it doesn't, I have seen zero statements from Takara Tomy admitting that they had any licensing issues < in regards to MP line for the remaining bots.
As for Jetfire, I only recognised the Cartoon version which Fantoys made.
Anything related to the macross or Robotech I have zero interests as I felt is a rip off from other anime and is actually kind of lame.
