    My original Siege version hasn’t, but that’s from an era before rapid yellowing became a problem. I wouldn’t touch this reissue if you’re concerned about yellowing.

    Your senses seem to have been spot on. The design team today admitted the yellowing issue is still not fixed.

    Yellowing sucks. Do we know when him and Skylynx is shipping. Entertainment Earth says February for Skylynx and may for Jetfire. Budget should be fine till next week when I get paid but I'd like to know. Never ordered from EE so don't know if they do a week notice about things shipping or something.

    Anyone know when Jetfire should be out from TFSOURCE? My pre order says February but it also said January last month so I don't trust it.

    I'll be honest. I got impatient, looked on ebay and found one for about 10 bucks cheaper, just missing the blast effects. Literally just shipped as I am typing actually.

    The concern about yellowing is for this new re-issue, since after the last releases of jetfire and skylynx the yellowing plastic issue started.

    :jawdropper:  They've been released already?! So Jetfire is on the 3rd pressing? SL too? 3rd pressing? And that fast? The yellowing that is:eek:  Btw, tangential, my NF Sw and ER Megs, the gray on where his neck is attached on and thighs has discolored but it took like almost 2 years!

    So to those interested, get the 2020 issue!

    Mine (got off ebay) looks great. No yellowing at all out of the box. I really love the features on this guy, I'm a sucker for armor gimmicks. Love him a lot! 20230226_122741.jpg
