    Default custom deluxe Jetfire

    I was trying to make a WFC version, but now it looks like an IDW-style deluxe version. And the head reminds me of Cheetor

    It's a repainted Jhiaxus with a Rodimus head. I first tried a classics Bumblebee head but it was too big.

    If you used the Armada Starscream mold, you could've made a Shattered Glass Starscream

    Looks amazing nonetheless.
    I'll update this when I'm needing help finding particular figures

    Bot mode works, the jet isn't quite Jetfirey enough though

    Keep it up snakey

    Very nice custom. If Leader Jetfire wasn't awesome, this would be on my want list for a redeco.

    I think it could work if you moved the rocket boosters further back down the fuselage. May not be possible though....

    Neat custom. Reminds me of the way that Jetfire was drawn in the IDW comics for a while when Figueroa decided to go with that ugly "movie-hybrid" motif (not saying that your custom is ugly! ) --- it says something when IDW felt that they needed to label every character on panel because they were less immediately recognisable!

    Nice custom, I like it.

    Perhaps a bit more red on the wings and shoulders might make it a bit more FOC Jetfire looking?

    Oh Snake, when are we going to see you drybrush?

    Seriously, nice job you always work cleanly with white.

    Looks cool! In jet mode i think those wide fan-like wings are what throws it off the most. Maybe paint the rear (clear) parts of the jetpack red too but this is just nitpicking on a fine job.

    Gok, that Jetfire reminds me of the recent deluxe bomber Megatron we got.

    I am also getting an IDW Metalhawk vibe with this Rodimus head on the Jihaxus body..
