    I like this color for the fighter jets, but looking back it looks like the Concorde is going to be the same color. I kind of wish if they were going to do more realistic colors for them, they'd stick with passenger jet white for him instead. Maybe if you want to go full "real" (or some approximation) color mode you could get the limb bots in this color and then Silverbolt in G1 white.

    It seems like they took the initial design of the Slingshot head and then tweaked with details until it looked like a helmet instead of a bald guy with sunglasses :lol

    ShowZ has the limbs listed as 8.6", so just a smidge smaller but pretty close

    Is there a price out there for them? ShowZ I think just still lists them as unknown.

    Yes they have confirmed this in a Chat.
    Please read previous Sites in this Thread.

    They will do G1 Color in the Future.
    But not really 100%
    More a "Maybe in the Future"

    Do not wait for it; I am 100% sure
    that they will first complete this Set
    (....maybe Complete in Mid-Late 2022)
    and than do a Re Color G1 Version.

    Why not wait for it? If these colours aren't working for someone, why should they just buy it anyway if they're not happy with the way it looks right now?

    I've not been a fan of Autobot jets since I was 12, and I care absolutely nothing about the combined forms of any Combiner teams. These look fantastic as individual bots, though, and I like the realistic alt mode paired with a G1 robot look (vs. vehicle realism with the shredded-metal horror shows that are the Bayverse bots). If articulation is good, I may be in on these. The color example looks fantastic.

    Articulation looks to be impressive so far
