    I just realized that the "axe" handle pegs are same-side. Only peg into right hand. Is everyone's like that?

    Love the boxy-look of the figure. I'd buy the brown/black prototype version... that looks amazing I think.

    This guy arrived today and he's incredible. I hope more people pick him up.

    The QC is outstanding and feels premium

    IMG_20171121_123616.jpg IMG_20171121_123601.jpg IMG_20171121_123557.jpg IMG_20171121_123524.jpg Just arrived. A few thoughts.

    1. Bought a lot of figures recently, 3p and others. This is the best made highest quality figure I bought this year. It's Bandai SOC Chogokin level quality.
    Speechless.

    2. Face sculpt looks 100x better in hand, it's small so the sculpt does NOT stand out like in all the pics I've seen.

    3. Asking price is insane.
    It's FT Sovereign heavy and worth at least $50 more than I paid.

    4. So blown away...I'm buying another for jet mode.
    And I never do that.

    How about the powermaster Optimus head master?

    For those who need a swap.

    I absolutely love this figure

    It’s shot straight to the top of my favourites of the year

    I had to remove tab with magnet that is on titanmaster back. Then glued face right to titanmasters flat back.

    So if I hypothetically already owned all of the other Skyfires in your photos and Jetfire is the only G1 figure I bought two of in 1985... I need to buy this one too? Before these posts this hadn't gotten on my need list.

    Would have been cheaper to buy a Titan Master and used the face... Just my opinion.
