    It happens once in a while, it will be back up again within a couple of days.

    I really do think this is a great toy but I'm in the process of trimming away really big figures in order to make room and Phoenix has to go.
    If anyone wants a gently used Phoenix, shoot me a PM. United States only, sorry.

    Just got a second.


    I'm a weak motherfucker.


    Baba still has some, go get him boys! This is IMO FT best release.

    Likely to be the only Skyfire we'll see.

    Cesium has me thinking... I wish Phoenix was an inch or two taller.

    :confused2 

    Here he was as today's deskbot - he's one suave motherfucker.

    Yep baba has certainly restocked. This is apparently the 2nd wave.
    Even tf-direct got their 2nd wave in.

    I was looking at my FT Skyfire last night (I've had it for months) and I'm still as impressed as the day I got it.

    FT-10 is majestic. A work of Art.

    FansToys FT-10 Phoenix Jetfire (Skyfire)

    I'm fine with the size but I wish the cockpit was a bit bigger so that it could house the MP-sized human figures. That's all I really want. That, and you can't really fit any tiny Transformers into the docking bay area.

    The only real fix without making him larger overall would be then to remove the side-by-side seating and make him single seat.

    Yeah, that's what I was thinking. I'd probably be okay with that though. I definitely think the jet mode could be bigger but I just don't think I really want him bigger overall. He's juuuust big enough for me. Any bigger and I might be put off. Terminus Giganticus gets a pass from me because he splits into multiple parts. Same with combiners.

    Well, here's my thoughts on it. I think it's a fantastic figure.

    I think it's safe to say the 2nd run is available now.

    I think we crucify kronos for being the piece he is.

    ^I don't know if I went too far.
