    Perhaps i'm being a bit harsh, perhaps it's not actually possible, but something more to hide the tank treads in plane mode would help.

    Yes, i know they stuck out like a sore thumb on the original toy...but that was on a lowish priced toy nearly 30 years ago.

    No way that thing is going to fly with those baby wings. LOL!

    But seriously speaking, if the robot mode is faithful to the original cartoon source... we have a winner!

    The Tank and Jet are spot on as they are (or as close as they can be) given this is a triple changer.

    Very impressive since it's pretty hard to blend a tank with a fighter jet

    neeeds backwards facing tank turret underneath the plane. also plane mode seems to have been infleunced more by a su-27 than a mig-25 but i suppose that is ok.

    for MP scale, they need to try harder, especially those tiny wings which look comical to say the least.

    Eh, looks great to me so far, but I definitely need to see the bot mode since that's what it will be displayed in 99% of the time.

    its too far away from any real life plane for that i think. lol. the TFC uranos bots were supposed to be real planes sort of. this thing is a fantasy plane inspired by i don't know what (but its no mig 25)

    We are talking about a triple changing transformer, not a model jet OR tank right? It is both plus a robot, sine things may simply be impossible to do considering all this. I do need to see the bot mode though. Show us more!

    Looks a little too faithful to the g1 toy for my tastes. Which means it's probably perfect for most people.

    The wings may look too small but I think they were also counting the surface area of the folded tank treads as part of the width for the wingspan. But seeing how this is a triplechanger, some compromises have to be included to make sure all three modes are more or less satisfactory. My interest is piqued.

    WHOA; if this is legit I'm definitely intrigued.

    No word on who's making this/what size yet?
