    I just can not believe how amazing and how much better this toy is than the FE.

    You know, just a splash more paint on this badboy and we have what looks like could have been a perfect figure. (Elbow joints do need some hands time on to evaluate though.)

    I actually kind of like his weapon as handheld. It's done well.

    I really don't like the silver paint under the clear plastic on his chest. I'm going to end up removing it. That's something I really preferred about the FE. I also like how the FE's head isn't as sunken in, and I prefer the FE's head too.

    Still a damn nice figure, with a really cool transformation.

    Haven't seen Jet Vehicon in the show. Is it a car with wings?

    You haven't seen it in the show? Have you seen the show?

    Regardless, yes. They are pretty much jets with a car at their core.

    Here's a pretty good one:

    It's not exactly just a car with wings but it has a car-ish base with a jet-like shell around it.

    I don't know about exactly like a car with wings, but I do admit that it looks like it could be possible to reshell the RiD mold to get something pretty close to the above pics.

    Looking at the picture above with the shots of the front, I see cars. The windshield, what looks like a hood with a raised middle section like old GTO/Lemans, or like a newer Firebird with the Ram Air hood.
