    He's definitely well worth getting, I picked up one of the early ones from eBay.

    So is this a Platinum release? If so, Jetfire might be 11 of 30 then in the thrilling 30

    is anyone else's knockoff alarm sounding? It's on chimungmung and has conflicting faction symbols, and that red stripe on the wing looks a bit shoddy

    I'm getting the same one along with the Asia Exclusive MP Grimlock. They're legit.

    Its not a Knockoff. Tony at Chimungmung got raided by the Chinese govt. and now he only sells legit figures, no KOs. Early Lunch specials of this edition were sold and are currently on Ebay.

    2 faction Symbols because Jet fire was in Fact both a Con and a Bot

    How much did you get him for on Ebay? $80 seems pretty high for this but I'm not very well versed in these classics sized ones.

    I didn't grab this guy. Didn't plan on it, but I might now. This guy will have premium paint apps on him, thus the increased price. Look at the Platnuim FoC Grimlock Vs. Bruticus set for an example of premium paint

    I got mine for $37 but obviously there was a minor fault, two right tail fins, nothing I can't live with.

    Was there any word at SDCC as to how these will be available? Will he be a part of the Platinum line here in the states?

    I would have preferred a spin/flip panel in the chest to switch between factions.
