    My Leader Prime scales just fine with the deluxe, voyager, leader & legends figures.

    Oooo that's nice. I think I'd prefer this to be on DMK Prime and get the trailer for RoTF Prime. Someone did a custom trailer already or is WIP and it looks amazing.

    great idea, but seems so late. had this been available 2 years ago, I would have jumped all over it I could think of 10 DOTM upgrades I'd buy in a heartbeat over this...

    I want this,only if Jetfire can transform from jet mode into his own robot mode. then combine with optimus as a jet pack & give optimus wings, boots & forearms. maybe a few hand gun weapons.

    I want 3rd party ROTF jetfire to snap apart into armor pieces like Energon Wingsabre did for optimus prime's combined mode. The perfect size for this Jetfire would be Ultra size.

    I don't need anymore lame duck mech tech jet packs for optimus,that has no jetfire robot mode. Leave the lame stuff for hasbro & takara to create. I hold the 3rd party companies to a much higher competency level.

    Sweet! I love the other FWI kits and this looks great. Reminds me of that Voyager Prime with jetpack that never came out.

    Also will finally let me display Jetfire by himself.

    About time someone got around to it, but as stated, it just won't be accurate. Its not just a simple backpack and leg attachment. He had parts thrown all over him.

    Not saying mine is accurate, but here is my piece of work:

    I have it listed for sale BTW if anyone is interested.

    I'm hoping this is just an add-on backpack and parts for Leader Optimus so that way I can put jetfire into robot mode and have this one attached to Optimus. I don't need or want it to transform into anything.

    this looks cool. if a 3rd party company tried to create this,it would be really exspensive. the thing would need to be leader sized & fall apart into armor pieces.

    Nice! But yeah, if FWI-03 is going to be as completely original and huge as this custom, the Jetfire parts are going to be ridiculously/prohibitively expensive (like $200-$300+). Not so sure but I believe FWI may just create some add-on parts that go with the normal Leader Jetfire+OP combo to give it a more screen accurate appearance. That would keep the cost relatively affordable (at least for those who already own both figures).

    Saw this on eBay. Awesome. If only it was painted. Although the price would go up I assume. Either way. ..awesome custom.

    Really? It's a mass-produced custom kit you need to paint yourself? How much is the going rate for it? Just curious about a price range, is all.

    No. He's talking about the custom that optics made, that is now on Ebay.
