    That's helpful, thanks.

    Phoenix will be my biggest figure yet and, now I have a bigger space, I want to display him in all his jet-mode glory... be gone, lightweight and kibbly Siege Jetfire!

    Sadly, they @dalianjj replied to say it is sold out.

    Is YetiStand good quality? I can't see the Phoenix adaptor on their website.

    I'll let others speak to quality, but I do not have the adapter for this figure up on the web store yet.

    He is totally blah. Nothing interesting about him. I followed the hype and bought this brick and now I am stuck with it. It’s like buying a statue ....way too cumbersome and difficult to transform ....zero fun factor.....too heavy. He just sits there and takes up a huge amount of shelf space....big white blob. They should have given the guy some armor because then at least there would have been some fun factor in putting on and taking off his armor. At least my G1 jetfire I could pick up and transform once in a while without even thinking about it....mess around with his armor ....put him in gerwalk.....pop his spring loaded landing gear .....something.

    Interesting. I've got Phoenix on order. May I ask what are your favourite Masterpiece style figures?

    Surely one of the easiest MP transformations around?

    Weren’t the rear landing gear insanely satisfying to play with on the original?...

    Oh yes, nothing like breaking your knuckles & fingers with di-cast landing gear that springs out at mach 10. :)  Oh glorious days those were, and still are. 34 years later and my g1 Jetfire can still crack a walnut with them! :D

    I read on eBay that the reissue has a shorter tab that is less prone to breaking. Anything else?

    Please go back to 1985 and play with your boring brick G1 Toys that look nothing at all like their Sunbow or Marvel Comics Counterparts.

    Good Day Sir.
