pondo Posted April 6, 2009 Posted April 6, 2009 I love the valks, for sure. But even though he was never really made into a transformable toy, I loved the animated design on the G1 skyfire. Have anyone ever made a toy or model of him? Is this thread sacrilege? Quote
sharky Posted April 6, 2009 Posted April 6, 2009 Is this the toy you are looking for? http://www.amazon.com/Hasbro-81299-Jetfire...r/dp/B000IJPJJU Quote

VFTF1 Posted April 6, 2009 Posted April 6, 2009 I guess if you want super duper accuracy you're going to have to hold out for an MP Jetfire/Skyfire. Pete Quote

macross1979 Posted April 6, 2009 Posted April 6, 2009 TheLoneWolf, Thanks for the link! I have never seen that before. I love SD items. Quote
sharky Posted April 6, 2009 Posted April 6, 2009 I've seen that one before. But it's too much of a hybrid between the two designs. I dunno, without any of the boosters or "Super" parts, I think it's pretty close. Besides, since when has any of the standard Transformers toys looked like the anime. MP being the exception. Quote
eriku Posted April 6, 2009 Posted April 6, 2009 Dangit, now I wan't that big SD Skyfire. I wish 'fansproject' and some of those other TF bootleggers would make something that cool. Quote
Hoptimus Posted April 6, 2009 Posted April 6, 2009 Kid Corrupt made one years ago. I dont know if his site is still up but he doesnt come here anymore. Quote

VF5SS Posted April 6, 2009 Posted April 6, 2009 One thing that bugs me about all the classics Jetfire is that it was trying to be both Skyfire and Jetfire. Just being one or the other would've probably made for a better figure. I also don't get why customizers keep using VF-1 toys to make a Skyfire when their transformations are fairly different. Skyfire was one of the few Marvel created designs that looked like it could be an actual toy. The only thing that was kind of vague was where his arms go in jet mode. I think they intended for them to go between the legs like a VF-1. Quote

Alpha OTS Posted April 7, 2009 Posted April 7, 2009 I love the valks, for sure. But even though he was never really made into a transformable toy, I loved the animated design on the G1 skyfire. Have anyone ever made a toy or model of him? Is this thread sacrilege? The Henkei repaint of the Classics version is the best you can do, imo. Jet mode still looks too much like a hybrid valk, but bot mode is a pretty spot on representation of the G1 toon model. Quote
Hiriyu Posted April 7, 2009 Posted April 7, 2009 Kid Corrupt made one years ago. I dont know if his site is still up but he doesnt come here anymore. KidKorrupt's Site is Still Up Quote
macross1979 Posted April 7, 2009 Posted April 7, 2009 KidKorrupt's Site is Still Up Wicked cool site. Thanks for the link. I had never seen that site before. Quote
big F Posted April 8, 2009 Posted April 8, 2009 Its been on my to do list for some time. I have the materials and all the sketches ready, just need the time. Quote
m0n5t3r Posted April 8, 2009 Posted April 8, 2009 (edited) KidKorrupt's Site is Still Up cool! ... i'm not really into SD figures/models but those SD scans/art are pretty damn cool... oddly enough, the regult, Q's, Glaug and other enemy mechs look nice in SD form...
