    Glad you like him, personally I like Thundercracker a smidge more.

    Does anyone get a sort of pre-earth Cybertron Wing Saber feel from Titanium Jetfire? It's weird but they come off as having a similiar design in the long nose nose. Maybe it's the color scheme despite the lack of yellow on Titanium Jetfire.

    Finally got mine. After repeated failures to get one at retail I finally ordered one. Today I realized that it had been sitting by my door for a week (stupid UPS guy dropped it off at the WRONG DOOR)

    Anyway. I'll make a quick suggestion. Pop off the tail section armor from the left arm. Now use a file or clippers to cut off the tabs on either side of the hole. When you put the armor back on you'll be able to rotate it.

    I was pretty impressed with this guy. I mostly got him for completeness sake (wanted to get all the 6 inch War Within homages) and didn't expect him to be anything special based on pics I've seen. Gangly limbs, tiny torso and head, bland articulation, awkward alt mode. But actually, none of those are that bad in person. He's considerably more articulate than I expected. Still not GREAT articulation, but he can make cool poses and that's what's important. I love all his alt mode pieces being used as armor and weaponry, and the detail work is just great. His jet mode can look awkward depending on what angle you look at it from (a lot of empty space under his wings), but from the right angle it can look very sleek and impressive. I think that out of the Titaniums that have been released so far he's my favorite (although I havent been able to find Rodimus)

    I have one too.
    I wasn't sure if I'd get one at the beginning when pics started surfacing. But, in order to get a good idea of how the figure looks, it's better to see it in front of you instead of on an internet picture. One of my faves.

    Sorry for the necromancy, but I was messing a bit with my Ti-Fire, and I came up with... the Kibble-Jet!

    (The sword he is holding is the Caliburn from the Figma Saber figure.)

    Well, the OC in one of my fics has green in place of red - but I'm thinking of using the craft as a separate jet, which could be piloted by another person...

    ...or maybe by himself, when he reverts to Pretender form.


    (I just with it was a little bit easier for the pieces to hold together - the nosecone can fit sort of ok-ish, but the aft section is a tad loose... any suggestions on what kind of piece might make it hold up, yet still be able to combine with Ti-Fire?)


    EDIT: Also, it gets worse - as Kibble-Jet is joined by Vroom-Or!
