Generations "GDO" Deluxe Cliffjumper

Shark Jumper · 08-07-2012, 03:52 AM

I'm tempted to put a repro label on the right side of his chest to make him look a little different than Prime CJ.

My Cliffjumper fits together nicely in both robot and car modes.

From seeing reviews on the FE, I was expecting the chest halves not to stay transformed very easily, but there's no problems like that.

I don't have the FE to compare, but does anybody know if there was something that was changed on it? From the reviews I saw, it looked like the chest was mainly held in position because of the belt buckle, but on mine there's some clear plastic on the back of the headlights that helps hold it in position too.

I also really like the light piping on this. The eyes are a nice light blue, and glow even in dim light.

I can totally understand that if someone is used to the FE that the Classics style head might look odd, but if you don't have that issue it works really nicely with the body. As long as you don't mind Cliffjumper getting an upgrade, it fits in with Classics.

And people can't complain about repurposing, since it's an official Generations figure.

Received mine today.

At first I didn't like him all that much, but as I played around with him that opinion quickly changed. I really like the transformation on this, which is something I would have never had the chance to try had it not been released in this line. As for the proportions, they do work out for the most part. I think if the hands were half the size they were, it would make the arms seem a little less muscle-bound.

He's ace.

I could gush some more over this guy, but i'll just say that with a tiny tweak, his head makes a nice FoC homage.

They will be. The GDO versions are Asian exclusives, the USA TRU versions will come packed in alt mode.
