Guest davidwhangchoi Posted July 8, 2014 Posted July 8, 2014 that's skyfire, jetfire doesn't have a mouth and looks like it bit off robotech... i think macross then bit off that and made a yellow version with a skull. instead of an autobot symbol. Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted July 8, 2014 Posted July 8, 2014 (edited) Oh wow... That is a fun take on it! here's the cool commercial again (i'm just messing around since that kickstarter is around) Edited July 8, 2014 by davidwhangchoi Quote
Gakken85 Posted July 8, 2014 Posted July 8, 2014 (edited) it looks a lot better than Kronos. Agree. And a lot cheaper. Got silverstreak today Edited July 8, 2014 by Gakken85 Quote
Uxi Posted July 9, 2014 Posted July 9, 2014 I want Skyfire! But am about to give up on finding MP Grimlock in a TRU Quote

HAAAAAAAHAAAAAAA!!!! Breezed past this post last night, but just re-read it, that's freaking hilarious! I would love for this to somehow become internet lore. -b. Quote

Gakken85 Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 (edited) Took a few picks of Silverstreak. I must admit I wasn't that keen on it when they first announced it, but I kind of love it. I think it's the best looking car mode of the fairladys. It has a realistic 80's sheen to it. Almost like a Delorean. It's the MP-08x of Autobot cars Kind of want to grab another.

David Hingtgen Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 I still think THAT silver, with the black hood, would have been the "perfect" Bluestreak. Quote
skullmilitia Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 I really wish they would have tinted the windows on the Datsun cars. With no interior, there's no need for clear. Quote
David Hingtgen Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 They are tinted. Just not as dark as Sideswipe's. Quote
VF-Zer0S Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 Wow it looks incredible Gakken! Makes it that much harder to choose between Prowl or this "SilverStreak" Quote
Gakken85 Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 (edited) Why not both? haha. I'd prefer a plastic piece to insert that makes it look like there is an interior over heavy tinting. But if it was too dark it would look too uniform I think. Edited July 10, 2014 by Gakken85 Quote
abbadon Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 I was planning to buy Prowl, but now I think I need to get this Silver Bluestreak as well. Quote
Gakken85 Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 I think I like it better than the original Bluestreak release. Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 I think I like it better than the original Bluestreak release. Looks great! Thank you for snapping a few pics and sharing. Now to figure out how to maneuver my current shoe-string budget...sigh. -b. Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 (edited) are you going to transform them Edited July 10, 2014 by davidwhangchoi Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 (edited) Sell something I love selling stuff haha Hey, we're on the same page. I need more folks to BUY something, just check the For Sale Section. are you going to transform them We don't transform things here David. Valks stay in Fighter mode as their packaged and Transformers stay in Bot or Car mode, as they're packaged. Can't have paint chips now can we. -b. Edited July 10, 2014 by Kanedas Bike Quote
Gakken85 Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 Nah. I like them in Car mode, and I have Prowl and Smokescreen in Robot mode already I might put his launchers on Prowl or bluestreak though. Quote
Gakken85 Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 Jetfire PO is up: http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=32576376 Quote
VF-Zer0S Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 I would get both but I'm not a big fan of paint swaps with minor differences lol. I also like prowl a bit more than streak but that silver though Quote
Scyla Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 Still waiting to the Blue Bluestreak. I second that. Quote
myk Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 Jetfire PO is up: http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=32576376 I actually like that. I wonder if it will have an "alternate" transformation also? Quote

Gakken85 Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 I like it.! Amazon.jp has this new book: Really hi-lights how shitty the scale with Ultra Magnus is. I want this book though. he 96 page book starts back in 2003 and then documents each of the over 40 Masterpiece toys that have been released. Rather than stop at just cataloging the figures though, it also adds in rarely seen drawings, design sketches, and prototypes as well as previously untold stories from the designers themselves as they recount the development of the toys!

GU-11 Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 Why's Prowl missing on the cover? They could've put him behind Bumblebee--little guy's so short that you'd still be able to see almost than half of Prowl. Quote
