    Great minds think alike?

    Actually, I just got my fillers kits today.

    I had hesitated but as I had another order coming I decided to go for it, and happy I did... They finally fell complete! Loving how improved they look.

    I feel the same way, I recently united these two and feel very satisfied.

    I'm not exactly a G1 fanatic, but I certainly can't deny that both Ratchet and Ironhide are a pair of straightforward, fun figures. I had seen quite a number of people moving on to the Earthrise rendition (And maybe the rumored SS86 Ironhide later), but so far I'm fine with sticking with these two, at least for now.

    The other use of the mold, Crosshairs isn't too shabby either:

    I'm the same, I prefer the Siege ones without question. Not that the ER version is bad, I actually really like that giant shield with the hidden cannons thing, but that they were simply impossible to get easily. I've never even seen either of them that I can remember. But even then, I do prefer the Siege look anyways and would have skipped them like I did most of the ER remolds. The fact that they didn't even fix the feet thing while doing the remolding was just beyond sad and shows how cheap Hasbro is... the third parties replacement feet designs are so simple that no way Hasbro couldn't have done it.

    For Crosshairs, I almost skipped him, but came across one on liquidation and got it, and while I wasn't sure about the colours and such, the moment I had him out of the box I know that I was very glad to have him after all. I love his head mold.

    But whatever the SS86 or the SS BB version are, the odds are extremely low that I'll bother, these Siege ones are most probably the only version I'll ever bother with.

    What's ironic is how rare Ratchet was and I ended up with an extra one as my pre-order was sent between the time I picked one up at the local store and didn't make it home to cancel the pre-order, so I have a backup.

    Man oh man, just got my first (and only) Siege Jetfire and he is a solid chunk of bot!!! Definitely cannot display him beside CW Superion, he’s taller! Absolutely awesome bot. I’m like 90% tempted to preorder the SG one now because of how awesome this one is.

    Edit: Post-Posting gushing continued -
    I almost want to paint him green and pair him up against anything less than Titan size (and SkyLynx) and yell “Jetfire smash puny bot!” He’s that big and imposing compared to the rest of the WFC cast. Put Galvatron up against him and even his insane arse would have to say “Do we really need to fight? Can’t we just peacefully discuss our differences like rational bots?” Long story short - LOVE this bot!
