    Did this not happen?

    I don't own the toy but I feel pretty confident saying no, he did not. He did have closing hands though.

    The Commander Class from two years ago? No, Jetfire has no blades in his arms. He did in the show just not on the toy. He did have peg holes geared to his fingers that would foldout when his hands closed, though.

    Usually the Mandela Effect happens over a longer period of time.

    I think several people have made customized blades for Jetfire based on the show, but they didn't originally come with the toy.

    A third party company made a knife, the actual toy has none. Also, the Mandela Effect rules because it shows how people are willing to assume there must be not-yet-understood information bleed between parallel universes because the alternative is going "oh, guess I was wrong."

    Windblade was marketed as an Autobot since she was first revealed. I messed around with her original figure yesterday, which had Autobot insignias.

    I feel like one of the very first polls of the fan vote poll that eventually created Windblade was deciding the toy's faction and Autobot won.

    She's been an Autobot from the jump. L

    You are just mixing up the Siege Netflix series and the toy. The series did have a forearm blade but not the toy.

    It also signifies a group of people recalling something incorrectly in the same way, not a single person misremembering a particular detail.

    I just found out why I thought this. I misremembered this clip



    1:33 Mark of video. I thought it was a retracting knife.

    Thanks for the input everyone!

    I still remember all the "no I TOTALLY had this toy as a kid" comments when MP-01 was released.

    For the longest time after LOC Skywarp was given away at SDCC? or was it Botcon...no no it was SDCC. Anyways for the longest time I was absolutely convinced TC had been made in some way shape or form. Absolutely convinced that he was yet again another con exclusive or sorts. Brain says I saw pictures with Skywarp but where and when is an absolute fuzz fest. Pretty sure I just saw a custom and brain went down the assumption trail.

    I'm still sad about that.

    As a kid, I remembered Galvatron stomping on Starscream's head after he vaporized his body. Guess that would've been far more gruesome than just crushing his crown.
