This is the significant change I've been waiting for to make me want to have more than one of the Voyager Op mold. I really don't care that the Jetfire parts don't turn into a bot, since I have a leader class JF already. It's just nice to finally have a sturdy, decent looking version of the the Op/JF fusion. Just hope we Americans don't get cheated out of this...NOT gonna pay for import.

No. As far as I'm aware, there is No leader-class Blackout in production.

lets have some faith. they are making Hook Prime, why make the hooks and not a Grindor to rip the face off of?

quote me, it will happen

How about not? Hasbro has officially stated time and time again they have no plans on making a Leader Class Blackout/Grindor/any other minor character now or in the future.

Back to Jetpower Voyager Prime, that's an upgrade I'm willing to buy. Anyone buying it for the Prime alone?

I don't think there will be an American version, imo. None of the current imports were featured in the Toy Fair.

Definitely me.. but I am torn between this and new Voyager mold.

hasbro also stated we where not going to be getting drift figue anywhere or anytime in the future i look for past Q&A with hasbro dont feel like it. but where getting one this year, there not part of hasbro but takara said there will be no plans of rerelasing mp grimlock once they sellout but we get repaint, & us version, same message with henakie dirge & thrust but where getting one of them to the us, and we may not get or never see in the future again another transformers univers toy line again but here comes 3.0.

just saying not trying to start fight here some of things here that hasbro & takra has told us may want to second guess some things here & there they could be telling this stuff to through us off the track didnt hasbro said to we are not going to produce any more aniamted figures but where getting ironhide, hotrod, rodimus, arcee, and few more others.

but leader class grindor/blackout who knows be intersting to see but it could either.

if it comestate side ill get it mostly for combined form & another voyager prime

Wait, I did not know this was JP only
That's a bit of a disappointment.

The set looks really nice combined, it is a shame the jet parts don't form a complete plane though. Even if it didn't have a bot mode, forming a plane instead of a pile of crap would have been nice.

After the new voyager Prime was shown the other day, I kind of assumed this set would use that mold, but I guess not. That's cool.
You'll be able to combine it with your 50+ other Voyager primes

Wa-HOW! That looks great! Way better than the Leader combined mode. I actually removed Leader Jetfire's combiner parts without ever having combined him with Prime, it just didn't do anything for me. This is much more accurate- Jetfire only gave certain parts to Prime for his power-up mode.

I like the Voyager mold, and have the Robovision from Movie 1. This will be nice addition, love the paint apps! I wonder what minor mold changes there are to accomodate the combination?

Much more interested than I was originally. It looks like the standard Voyager Optimus. If there was no change there, I'd consider getting the booster for my Defender Optimus. Wish I could get them separate.

I wonder if, in the third movie, Prime will still be using the Jetparts, or if he left them in the desert.

That's pretty badass, but alas I already have a Voyager Prime.

Looks very cool. And Movie accurate too, considering Prime and Jolt only used pieces form Jetfire's carcass to make the Jetpack, and not all of Jetfire (who was dead at the time). Which means the Jetpack really had no actual Robot mode. Only Scrap metal mode.
The combination looks pretty cool. The paint scheme looks even better than Robo Vision Prime, and other than the blade on the left arm, and likely a peg to hold his 2 guns there, there doesn't seem to be much remolding to the figure.

Pretty cool.
As for Price, since Prime is Voyager, I'd say the Price for it would be Leader Class Pricing. To make up for the Jetpack.

So far, there is no remold. I remind seeing a picture wher we could see how the blade was attached. Actually, it attaches on the peg placed on the front part of the forearm and the jetfire part will surely hold the two guns, while being attached on the two holes that the forearm armor has.

This is the lamest thing since lame came to Lame Town.

Am the only one that thinks that this is pure win and will definitely buy it should the opportunity present itself?

Probably, but oh well, I reckon he looks severely f**king awesome. I own the First Strike Optimus, so I could utilize this movie accurate Optimus.

Let's see, this could be the.. Final Battle Prime in my collection? I mean, that works. It has the sword, the armour, the guns and the awesome attachments.

All-in-All, looks like win!

Epic WIN! Yes, this would certainly make for nice stop-motions, I'm loving this guy

This looks frekn better than the Leader! Is this released in stores, or is it going to be an exclusive thing?

Yeah! And his "talking" gimmic in robot mode is his face splitting into 3 pieces and him screaming, "NOOOOO!" I can see that already!

And people thought the Power Core Combiners were bad because the drones dont have a robot mode, at least they pop out and form something.

This is just another voyager Prime with pieces that dont do nothing but plug here and there..... I know... I'll call him megablock prime

Big pass for me

Man, they even have the pinstriping around the flames on the Voyager version in Japan. I hope this is cheaper to buy imported than Buster Prime. I wanted the masked version of that so bad, but there's no way I could afford... well either Buster Prime really. REALLY hope this is cheaper.

Having the Jetfire parts not be able to make Jetfire doesn't really bother me too much. That's probably more movie accurate anyway as he's dead and just gives parts of himself to Prime, and they don't seem to be able to rebuild him after Prime's done with the parts, so no complaints on that.

This made me laugh.

Perhaps Buzz can make use of them? Heh.

If I remember correctly, Prime sorta quickly shrugged them off like dandruff. Nice way to treat a fallen friend who just helped you, eh? What they should do is have Jetfire's parts recycled into a new 'bot and call him Skyfire. That way they could get some extra repaint use of the mold and would make fandom very happy at the same time. That's what they would do if they were clever...

Well that's expensive. Won't be importing it then. $79.05 + about 30 for shipping = 109.05 for a Voyager figure I already own one of, and a black jet pack. That is not a good deal.

Guess I'll wait for Hasbro's version as long as its not more than a Leader Class figure.

Yea I finally decided to get this.. too awesome to miss.. I also have The TFTM First Strike OP, this is the 1st time I ever get the same mold cause the paint job and the powered up mode is just really nice.
