    hmm, as long as it doesn't have shoulder issues.... Hasbro has been a terrible lately when it comes to designing good shoulders. Just looks at Gen Blitzwing, Gen Perceptor and Bayverse Brawl - the shoulder issues on hthese figures are really terrible considering today's toy design technology. Just ruins a good toy, especially since you can't play with it if it falls apart in just a few shakes.

    too much CAD design, and too little focus on quality. Happens to a lot of toy sadly.

    I was concerned that we'd have visible hand syndrome again but it looks the arms fold in to the middle and the hands *might* stow in behind the thrusters. Don't mind that the chest is a cheat.

    I'd like to see some photos of the undercarriage.

    That's something my missus would say.

    Looks amazing, please be real.
    Will make Classics Jetfire disappear into the shadows in my CHUG collection

    I think Classics Jetfire is still an excellent toy. This toy looks a lot more panelformery at the back of the robot mode; possibly because it transforms from "Skyfire" in robot mode to "Jetfire" in jet mode. Classics Jetfire on the other hand does well in incorporating a good amount of the jet mode into the robot. And of course, it's a smaller/cheaper Voyager that came out 7 years ago.

    +1 my only gripe with this toy is balance and those lazy feet.

    Should this figure see the light of day, I'll be all over it ; I own the original Classicsverse mold in 2 flavours and that wouldn't deter me from picking this up at all , but if he indeed comes in a 2-pack with a new Leader Class Megatron (Toted to be the "Definitive" iteration) then it is going to cost a fortune to obtain this figure.

    I sure hope the AUD improves by the time of this possible release, because you can bet Hasbro AU will drop the ball on offering it locally - They're a stickler for tradition you see.
