    @Peaugh when you do your review, can you please show us jet mode with no armor pieces and the boosters removed? None of these reviews so far are showing it...

    I will do my best if one of these happens to show up here. Although that could be the DHL shipping notification I got earlier...

    If you’re taking call-in requests, @Peaugh, see if you can get Jetfire to hold one of the Perfect Effect Gorira Jr or Leonidas swords :D 

    By Solus, I swear this bot could manage a solid Obari pose.

    Grabbed a screenshot of this from the new video review in case there was any lingering doubt about a gerwalk mode:

    The articulation is amazing and I like the homages to Classics Jetfire. Masked head reminds me of IDW Tailgate though.

    I put in an order this morning during the eBay Flash Sale, and I am guessing many people did as well seeing how Baba sold out.

    I’ll see what I can do. Pretty sure the Gorira Jr swords are actually right there on my review table.

    Going off that video, @@l3x, it also seems like Cygnus comes with a stand! :D

    Certainly looks like he could ship in the next week or two.
    His rifle is massive; it looks a little ridiculous held in one hand. Fortunately it looks like he can be posed so he is using two hands.

    Literally the only thing that bothers me, and it's tiny, is that the "weapon holding" hands have a plain hole instead of being slightly open like most Iron Factory hand sculpts.

    Yeah, but he also comes with actual fully closed fists, and fully open hands. Also it's probably a structural thing, less chance of breaking tugging it out when it's a fully formed piece rather than one open? I dunno.

    True!

    I have few minor nitpicks with some design choices, but he looks so good overall.

    I just hope they avoided any QC issues or some of poor design choices they made with the Combaticons like Brawl's legs or Blast-Off's head transformation.
