    So I guess the Jetwings parts fit Striker in truck mode. Does any know for sure if the Jetwings parts also fit striker in robot mode?

    I could care less for this, I'm just upset as to why Hasbro didn't bring Striker OP to the US market.. TakTomy already had Jetwing as the new leader figure, US should of gotten Striker OP..

    it was for 50 when they first started, but it was still crazy. The reason is:

    BBTS: Just the blades for 50$

    OR

    If you are in Japan,

    Buy 40 bucks of stuff on TRU and its free.

    no, for one, the backpack is different. Jetwing has the detachable gas tanks/ buster prime mold, so he can equip the backpack. This one has the original prime's (more or less) sculpt, so the gas tanks get in the way.

    The toy does look super bad ass. I picked it up at my local TRU today with the blades. Also, in case anyone is wondering, the blades are translucent, but they're fortunately HARD PLASTIC (ABS). Which is a plus for me, since I didn't want bendy straws for swords.

    Gotta say it's quite interesting that Takara is doing add-on kits. :)
