    I want to get one, but then I'll have to track down a RotF Jetfire to complete the set. And the KO Battle Blades. And all the while cursing the fact that the Striker Optimus parts aren't sold separately.

    Mother of god, this is my favorite TF toy of all time. He's very nice on his own, but switch jetpacks between him and Nemmy, and awwwww yeeeaaaaahhhhhh!

    These are pics from a haul thread, but imma professionally shoot both these bad boys.

    ^^What I did here was took away all his chrome parts and gave him to the regular prime and just switched the much darker parts regular one came with for Nemmy.

    I was looking at that actually... but couldn't figure out how to pull the chrome tanks out. Is it like pin removing?

    Ah, dude, no! Super simple. Sorry for the late reply! All you need is a flathead screwdriver. The smaller the better. The tanks are hugging three circular tabs. Slip the screwhead between the shoulder panel and the tanks circular end that ends up attaching to the initial panel and just pop it off carefully. I did easily with no chrome chipping or anything. Let me know if ya understand this, it's harder to explain than I thought, but super easy.

    No problem. There shouldn't really by any chipping, just go through it gently and such.

    tik posted the link to the instruction for the main bot, and here are the instructions for the gun and wings.

    Optimus Prime (Jetwing) - Transformers 3 Main Line - TFW2005

    What I do to see the full size image is copy image ling address to a new window/tab. There might be a better way but I don't know :eek:

    This is a Jetwing Optimus but not in the Jetwing mode for a change.

    Where are the Jetwings ?

    Well someone "Borrowed" Them.
