    Only difference I can see in both, is that Ejector has a metallic finish instead of unpainted grey on his main body. Stratosphere looks identical to the Hasbro offering.

    The more I see of Stratosphere, the more I like him. Not overly thrilled with the toaster, but oh well. Fun is fun.

    wow ejector is mistransformed, nothing new there, his lower jaw should be moved up not all the way down. haha.

    may get this version though over the hasbro if it does have the more metallic finish.

    is it just me or could stratosphere almost pass cybertron jetfire as a moderneized semiretro looking ww2 era b52 bomber?


    i actually think that would be a interesting idea to explore

    Ejector looks like Wario!

    I love Stratosphere. Except for his beanie. I hope I can headswap him and somehow keep the canopy intact.

    Don't think so. I did see him in stores and all it had was the mini Optimus Prime. Wasn't is also a mini shuttle?

    stratosphere's legs are too silly for my tastes, he looks like a cross between a robot, a plane and a duck. :S

    Said it before, will say it again. Stratosphere is an ironic name for such an abysmal toy.

    For most of the ROTF line, TakaraTomy uses exactly the same stock photos as Hasbro, so in all likelihood, their version will be similarly unpainted.
