Honestly, I think it's the head sculpt for me. The actual face is fine... but he's got some Mega Mind going on... and I can't un-see it. I was also hoping his facemask/helmet head was going to be a *lot* better.

I can see it some, but i think the issue I have with it is in the arms, something there seems off

Is it how they're only juuuuust low enough for them not to look too awkward?

Maybe? I am not a fan of the G1 cartoon model, so that may be playing part too. But the arms do look off

Very cool, enjoyed the detailed shots. The wing transformation was surprising, a lot more involved than I was expecting.
Shame Hasbro seems to have pushed their worst case scenario release date from February to May.

I prefer sooo much the Commander class toy, so full of small details. TFs with Cybertronian alt. modes were always a little less interesting in their MP incarnations due to the lack of officially licensed vehicles, but Jetfire being so big and almost monochrome worsen everything.
A shame, because I really like the character... still I wonder whether the mold will be reused, and if so how.

So for me, this MP is easily skippable. Especially at 370$CAN plus taxes and shipping.
