Like the toy, but don't exactly have a place for him in my collection. Might get him anyway, but for now, I'll wait for a repaint that fits better. Looks impressive though
just got mine an its a freakin sweet figure…. apart from the legs which are awful, more-so than in the vid even , i've never had worse popoff, especially since you have to twist the hip during transformation… anyone have a fix? superglue and nailpolish just tighten joints up right? surely in this case the socket is too small for the ball not vice versa… if you see what I mean…
Umm, I would image a repaint would be more like Strafe or X-Gunner or Space Case, I mean it's the EXACT same plane (check here). I'm betting on Strafe since I've seen that name float around for upcoming figures…
Ah… There's a large black hole in my TF knowledge from the end of G1 up to Cybertron (and I'm patchy on that ) – I had no idea those characters existed. I can see how they'd be appropriate uses for the mould, now, though
This figure looks amazing. Deception + jet + cool transformation + nice colors + TRIDENT = bought on sight. Could've taken any two of those qualities after Decepticon jet out and I'd still have bought it. Epic win of a figure, it seems.
Given the aircraft mode, I can't help but think this may be repainted and given a new head as HftD Cyclonus, even with leg-wings.

But on topic, I absolutely LOVE this figure it's fantastic! The proportion are great, the head sculpt is awesome and the alt mode is fabulous! I was wondering tho, can the wings that fold on his chest be left opened to give his chest a V shape?
You can collapse those wings closer to the legs. I just had a mental fart and didn't do it in the review. I was still going by the pics on ko toys even though I had figured it out myself.
LOL!
That's like saying Damn I'm hungry that baked chicken looks good but I'd think I'd rather starve to death.
LOL Good one, I see your point. But I've just been picky on what figures I pick up. Who knows… maybe a Toys R US by one get one free, then I'll pick it up
i like this guys reviews more ove peaughs he does clos ups on tha head and faces peaugh doesnt do that thanks for sharing if i do decide to get him which i will he will stay in jet mode not to impressed but his bot mode if it wasnt for his jet mode i pass on this guy alltogeather

If someone care, it should be a Grumman X-29.

All Terradive needs is a large cloak and he can fit right in with the SW TF's as one of the Sand People

Reminded me of the G.I. Joe Conquest x-30. Is that the same jet? Not fond of the yellowjacket color but maybe a repaint. May still get him anyway.

I'm really loving this mold, especially that it feels so non-movie-ish, so it can go with my classics.

IIRC, wasn't the Hasbro-photo-shopped image a better color?
this looks like they are trying to dump excess BB plastic.
i liked the Bronze/Copper colors from the initial photos.
will get this anyhoo, if only for Jet mode.

Looks awesome, I love that design. Can't wait to pick this thing up.

That's a great review, it's good to see another skilled reviewer.
That figure is nice, although I think jets are better suited to voyager size.

the jet's actual name is the SU-47, the head sculpt is ok i guess, ill probably get him, i need another decepticon anyway
