Siege line has to easily be one of the best lines interms of the transformations and playability.

[@nicholassilva3028]

Nextwipeout Gaming I completely agree. They look great. They transform in very interesting ways and the over arching gimmick is one that crosses over very easily with many past and present lines.

“With his size and probable strength, he will make an excellent Decepticon!” Yeah, you don’t have the Robo-smasher anymore, Megatron. The guy has free will.

[@KeshmarOrange]

You got it backwards, my man. "Jetfire" was the original name, and they couldn't use it on the cartoon, so they had to use "Skyfire" as a substitute name. But now they have full rights to the name and are able to use it instead of the substitute name.

[@segun78]

Seige has really been killing it. With the G1 retro but new school updated designs. My wallet is crying.

[@basicfacekick]

"No waist swivel" ... I was right there thinking the same, and just as surprised when he had a twist there. All together, WOW.

[@periclod1877]

He looks absolutely spectacular! I'm so happy that hasbro has put so much effort and care into this line, and they're doing triple changers again, and Springer already looks as good as any third party, and possibilites of an Astrotrain! This is my favorite line in years

@@great159 What about Landcross? I mean we want a few more combiners and I believe Micromaster Combiners are coming, and likely Landcross needs an update *real bad* even 3Ps neglect him because he was underrated.

[@Quantum_Magnus]

After I saw how they engineered Ultra Magnus and Cybertron Optimus, I want to see them make Motormaster + Stunticons and have them combine to form Menasor.

[@wonderwaffle93]

I’m so happy about this line. Can’t wait to add this BEAUT into the collection

[@KyotoEnthusiast]

This has to be one of the best TF figures Hasbro has put out in a long time. No way I'm passing this guy up. Great review, Paul!

[@DennisTamayo]

He appeared in most episodes of the Netflix series, although he has a Decepticon symbol.

[@knightshifter2201]

His name has always been originally Jetfire but since Hasbro use the same figure as a Valkrie they got sued by a company named harmony gold back in the 80s therefore they had to change the cartoon appearance and name for the original G1Series. If you go on the Internet and watch the original content for fire in the sky they use the name Jetfire for the original take And then they had to go back after the legal situation and name him Skyfire. Apparently some legal issues have been taken care of throughout the years because they gave him back the original name as Jetfire for every other incarnation of the character even up to the current toy that we’re talking about here.

[@MentasmUK]

Thank you for saving me the time saying exactly this. Pretty common knowledge among Transformers fans to be honest...

[@knightshifter2201]

This is true but for people who are not transformers fanatics they wouldn’t know this information at all lol.

[@derpmaycry2885]

It's like Hasbro saw all the third-party companies screw up with making a good Jetfire figure and just said "Oh screw it, we'll do it ourselves"

[@Highlander77]

I mean, several of them were pretty lacking, but FansToys Phoenix was pretty much spot-on (and actually Masterpiece level in both scale and quality, which this isn't quite).

[@vincentmarcellino7183]

Hasbro: *Grabs Infinity Gauntlet* Fine. I'll do it myself...

[@CyborgNS6NL]

I agree, best in the Siege line.

Another amazing review Paul! And I love the reaction you have to him having movement at the waist haha

[@darkwoods1954]

He looks incredible! The Generations line has just gone from strength to strength over the last five years.

[@enasty1257]

never thought id see the day when a proper g1 acurate skyfire would be made and by hasbro themselves. i wasnt too thrilled with the thrilling 30 skyfire or any 3rd partys but this figure is everything i could want and more. it checks every box. im beyond amazed. this pretty much is a masterpiece.

[@RosencrantzxGuildenstern]

The figure is even better than I thought it'd be, thank you so much for this early review! Didn't think they'd manage to squeeze any waist articulation in there, super happy in can swivel at all. Also like the size comparison with MP-10, it works pretty well if one happens to go for more of a Marvel G1 style of scale, where Jetfire wasn't towering above everyone else as much.

[@daxsama]

WOW! The engineering in those hands are seriously impressive

[@monte_2000]

What’s nice is that thrilling 30s Jetfire is now a good scale too since the downscaled all the leaders

[@great159]

[@GibDozer1]

I hear you, I was going to pass on the line until I bought Prime. Ended up selling almost all my 3p stuff and going Siege, haven't regretted it at all. These figures are affordable and tons of fun!

[@Fenris30]

Jetfire/Skyfire technically only had a cybertronian mode.

[@Quantum_Magnus]

You’re right, but the toy franchise he originally was purchased from made the vehicle to look like an F-14 Tomcat(I think) which is technically an earth mode. :P

[@Night5225]

It’s debatable, cause Starscream was also shown in his Earth mode when Jetfire and him leave Cybertron.

[@mymon2829]

@@Night5225 that's an animation error

[@chevy-is-a-good-boy]

Generations Jetfire still looks ace, but Siege is really killing it - it's probably the best mainline Transformers series to date. Hope Transformers Siege is around for a long time to come.

[@shaunhandley3050]

I love how every review I've watched says it's up there with the masterpieces. Definitely the best I've bought and totally agree with how impressive he is. Definitely no need for a masterpiece version

[@Grimlock1973]

Solid review. Is it just me or does the hip joints seem loose? I have the Fans Toys Phoenix so no need to pick this up. But KUDOS to Hasbro for stepping up the quality and not making Jetfire hollow and cheap looking.

[@DragoonMS]

"Skyfire was always massive." This says it all. Good luck preaching this to the peeps that think that this figure is better suited to MP scale than CHUG. I mean, Skyfire/Jetfire was like *THE BIGGEST* Autobot in season one (before Omega Supreme came along in season two), and definitely much larger than the Dinobots (who were already a little bit bigger than Optimus and the other Autobots)!! This figure...I can't wait to get him...assuming that the distribution is any good, which it hasn't been for nearly a decade now.

[@geraldkiing1904]

The engineering at the hand is GLOOOORIOUS! ❤️❤️

[@LuckyArceus]

As a HUGE fan of the G1 (nostalgia) and Masterpiece line, I wasn't all that impressed with later figures but holy cow I am completely in awe of this figure and for the price it's amazing value. Great video!

[@robertj.3383]

The figure's strong point is definitely the bot mode. That's probably how I'll have mine displayed. Looking like good ol Skyfire from the original cartoon😁

[@joebones1529]

This is the Jetfire we should have got in the 80s, instead of that thing that isn't even Jetfire. I remember opening him as a kid and wondering why he was the only one who looked nothing like the Skyfire in the cartoon.

[@nordicnaturenerd6328]

Holy crap, they engineered in a waist? Other reviewers missed that! I'm sold, thanks to OB.

[@thepebble5031]

You had me loosing my mind. There was a apple alarm in the background and I thought it was in my house, it had me trying to find it and shut it off

[@knightshifter2201]

My opinion is that this is better than the Phoenix third-party jetfire.

[@knightshifter2201]

^

[@therealspaceninja27]

The Phoenix is lacking panel lines and details like this! Granted it has the cartoon look, it still looks unfinished compared to Siege.

[@ericmorneau7708]

Phoenix was made to scale and fit with the G1 MP aesthetic. If you compare it to screenshots, you will see that it looks like it stepped right out of the cartoon with no sacrifice to either mode or proportions. It really is remarkable. I actually see a lot of simarities between the two designs which leads me beleive that the Seige designers were big fans of the Phoenix version. Of course, the Seige version is cheaper, more detailed and sized to fit the Seige aesthetic, and he is made to be played with. Such an unexpectedly great figure. I'm totally psyched for Omega Supreme, now.

[@IndyCrewInNYC]

Ordered him today, couldn't resist. That is an insane amount of weaponry for our favorite "scientist." I bet ole Screamer is jealous of his former bff.

[@hunterlangley8287]

The chest plate can peg onto the underside on the red handles to sorta flesh out the bottom.

[@jamesmeredithiii1462]

GREAT video Optibotimus. Hasbro did a EXCELLENT JOB on Skyfire. It's a SERIOUS must COP.

[@endymion7585]

Jetfire: *Exists* G1 Cartoon Fans: REEEEE THATS SKYFIRE!

[@twistedgaming9185]

Check Chris McFeely's video on Jetfire. To summit it up, Hasbro tried to include Jetfire into the cartoon, but because it was imported by Takara in Japan (and the toy was Bandai's property), they redesigned him and named him Skyfire. Since the Classics toy, he remained Jetfire ever since (even after one lawsuit from f***ing Harmony Gold).

[@endymion7585]

Pretty sure every Transformers fan knows this Unless you’re a Bay-former fan, then you just know Jetfire as that one guy who dies

[@alexavila3145]

Look, we already know the only TRUE Jetfire speaks in upside down

[@Clankatron]

@@endymion7585 that one's the Grandfire

[@TaikoNoTetsujin]

This is an AMAZING recreation of the original cartoon look for Sky/Jetfire! However, I gotta say that the original cartoon version of Skyfire did not really resemble the Macross toy that was its basis (thanks, Harmony Gold D:) So, that whole gun splitting in half thing has nothing to do with Macross, since the Veritech guns didn't do that, and the original transformation of the Macross jets was very different from how this toy does it. Take a look at the amazing Veritech/Valkyrie transforming jets that Yamato has put out in Japan...(they cost a ton to import, but I'd say it's worth it. I've got four of them sitting on my desk here right now!)

[@Eddyche710]

I think you mean Thank You Takara! Hasbro would have never done this alone!

[@ridernyello7907]

@KO Assassin the transformers line as a whole has 12 designers some work at hasbro and some work at takara with both contributing to all lines.

[@ridernyello7907]

@KO Assassin i cant find anything on that. do you mind giving a source?

[@IamGalvatron]

Damn it ‘Botimus, transformation can wait, TAKE YOUR MEDICATION!!!

[@figurethisfigures4785]

I literally watched the episode where Skyfire/Jetfire shows up yesterday, and this figure is just way too big for the Siege line. He was big in the cartoon, but not this big. If you look up pictures of him from the original show, Optimus' head should come up to the middle of his stomach. The Siege Optimus and Starscream are dwarfed by this thing. Honestly, the Masterpiece Optimus scales much better. Interesting that Hasbro would make this thing so huge when up to this point, the Siege line has been so accurately scaled.

[@KillDriver21]

Yea I hope they release a leader class, this is great but I want to scale him with the siege line not g1 or mp

[@MiXVoy]

Thank God, after 35 years he's not a Yamato Macross lawsuit anymore

[@bradkrekelberg8624]

Looks awesome to me! I intend to buy him for my Masterpiece display. The Fanstoys Skyfire is WAY too expensive in my opinion, and this is just a great alternative!

[@SuperiorAmericanGuy]

Jetfire joined the Autobots. Oh wait I remember something: never trust a decepticon due to they’re deceptive.

[@rjmaksym7692]

I really like how they nailed the alternate mode and the robot mode of “Skyfire” then on top of that, they included a couple pieces of you really dig the look of the “Jetfire” toy, imo the og toy looked a little out of place compared to the other more boxy G1 characters, this is a perfect homage to that character.

[@bigbodyg35]

This is gonna look awesome displayed next to my Takara MP Star Saber displayed both in jet mode.

Considering that last Leader class Jetfire is great and fits my Generations (CHUG) collection perfectly already while this upcoming one is almost too G1 accurate for that collection, I mostly want to see this one compared to Fans Toys Phoenix because this might be a good and more affordable option for a Masterpiece Jetfire.
