    Dear Fans,


    Here is something I did for the past weeks and I have spend more than USD 1000 to complete this master piece. Been working on repaints through out the world and here is something to share. Hope you guys like it and please ask me anything if you guys thought of getting one done for yourself and I am willing to share....

    OMG! I dont even know what to say!

    I can see how much hard work and time you put into this!

    You disassembled and rebuilt Jetfire's parts with so much amazing detail!

    You my friend are an amazing artist :thumb

    Nice. I like the way the thrusters are modelled. But the feet...Not sure how to put it but it kinda reminds me of a duck as it's protruding out too much in one of the pics.

    All that apart, what made the parts used balloon the cost of this project to more than USD 1k?

    As absolutley BEAUTIFUL this piece is, and I CANNOT put my awe into words, I'm sllightly pulling that polite smile at the 1k price point just to do it up. Do you really have that sort of money to put into projects or are you expecting HUGE returns at an event or something?

    Everyone above me stole the words from my mouth. My first though when I looked at the pictures was "whoa" which pretty much sums up my amazement.

    Hell yeah !!! You did a really great job with this. Sorry to hear about that 1000+ dollar build cost though. I thought the build cost for mine was too much at just under $400.

    From looking at these pictures it looks like your Jetfire parts are removable. Are they ? Does Prime still Transform ?

    Thats very awesome, but i wouldnt agree with the statement that its the most accurate in the world so far as theres quite a few little details missing, and the placement of the back parts is incorrect too.

    I wouldn't say it's the most movie-accurate one I've seen, but this is one awesome piece! :) 

    Don't see how this is coming up to USD1000 in terms of cost, unless you've been buying some exorbitantly priced toys for the parts.

    I just noticed the movie accurate blue pin-stripes! Did you use the buster prime two-pack mold for this? If so they came like that from the factory, but if you didnt use that as the base toy how did you make the pinstripes look so awesome?
