RotF Jetfire Review

[loophole]

Excellent review... Hmmm, I was pretty excited by this figure, but I'm a little turned off by the folded-up robot underneath the jet in alt mode! Maybe I won't get him after all... unless he's on sale.

you know you will especially with all the sales about to start

Man what an awesome altmode from the top. but from the bottom yech.

I keep thinking of the Family guy episode where Brian makes the TV revolve around Peter and when he see's it he laughs and when he doesn't he's all sad. I reckon it will be the same with Jetfire:

Topside: "Wow!!!"
Flip
"Awwww!!!!!"

Apparenlty the real Blackbird can be 'kiblely' on the underside:

Wait, isn't that just with the turbines out for display purposes? Or did you already know that?

I was looking at a Jetfire in store at Target today and while studying the box I saw the pilot name and got very excited for a moment, until I noticed I'd misread it but a touch of black paint will fix that up when I buy one.

Even if they are, Jetfire was on display in the movie so I guess that makes him movie accurate.

I was at Udvar-Hazi in April and those turbines weren't visible. On the placard in front of Jetfire, it said that it's final flight, from LA to Washington DC, where Udvar-Hazi is, took 1 hour and 4 (or 5) minutes. For comparison, it take commercial airliners 5+ hours. Rest assured that anything that can go that fast has no kibble.
