ROTF Jetfire

ROTF Jetfire is massive in size and makes cool noises.
In Jet mode he is measuring in 18 inches in length 9 1/2 inches from wing tip to wing tip.


And for those of you who read metric, this pic should help in displaying his size.


In bot mode his head only moves left to right just a little. When you pull the lever down on his chest he says "I am Jetfire" and his eyes light up. On his butt, there is a small button when pressed makes a missle launching sound. :lol!:
His cane is just a gimmick and is not truly necessary to keep him standing. But getting him to balance is time consuming. Transforming this guy takes a lot of patience as when you snap one section together, another section may come apart. It's very frustrating. As with most "movie" toys, there is a lot of moving parts for transformation.


I currently don't have the ROTF Prime, so i cannot show what the combined formation looks like with Jetfire & Prime. If anybody would like to add pics to this review, you are more than welcome.

I figured it would be neet to show Jetfire along with his other formations

ROTF Jetfire is a very cool Transformer, although, in jet mode, his under carriage shows all the robot appendages. Transformation is simple, yet difficult and time consuming.

but he is still BLUE!!!!! :kick: :barf:

In robot mode is very accurate in my opinion,anyway it's true Rumble,if I remember well his head and body have a different coloration in the movie .

Err Scrapper?

:lol!:

As for Jetfire I think he looks pretty good and I will probably pick him up when I get the chance.

Rumble.

:affraid: WHAT???Rumble and Clifffjumper,difficult to explain this mistake......I thought that I had seen a post of you and not Cliffjumper...I was really distracted :lol!: :roll:
Unless that...just this morning I had seen Soundwave working at the site at another postation next to me and saying again "Soundwave superior.."...grrr.....he had surely changed Cliffjumper's name with Rumble for a little time in order to do another joke to me(anyway I'm very very sorry for OT,but my mistake gave me inspiration for this little thing... )

Speaking about the robot,I like him in vehicle mode also for abbreviations in military style but I doubt that I'll buy because I'm much more interested in other TF's .
Also face and shoulders are great in robot mode.

LOL HAHAHA maybe its cause we both have red colouration but yeah I like the plane mode looks but overal not good enough for me to fork out that much on :barf:

Thank you Wheelie for letting me borrow Mr. Wheelie's ROTF Optimus Prime.
Now here is what OP and Jetfire look like combined...

That combined mode looks like :barf: . You need to fiddle with it to make it look better.

I followed the instructions :roll:

that filthy pirate hooker......

yeap lol

Here's my review of the figure

First up the robot mode:

Mostly a dark turquoise grey colour with some gold/yellow and some silver parts. He comes with a cane which is kinda useless due to the wheel on one end of it and a missile launcher shaped like a Gatling gun. Oh and unlike some other ROTF leader class figures he has posable digits {All three are linked together but he can grip things}. Also the combination kibble doesn't really get in the way here seeing as its basically stuck on his back. For some reason he reminds me of a turtle due to his hunchbacked shape but unlike megatron and prime he is unchanged from ths US one with concerns to his voice chip. As with all figures though there are some flaws that I will go into now. First off his whiskers are made from soft rubbery plastic which is very annoying as they will eventually bend out of shape. :( The other problem is his balance which means he is hard to pose as he likes to fall over backwards {making a transformation sound as he hits the ground backwards perhaps finally transforming into a pile of rusted junk?} and finally the boosters while on joints the joints holding them are very weak and really you can't do anything with them.

Rating: - 7/10

Transformation:-
First off he will only really fold up right in one configuration. The rubber belts for combining really get in the way during transformation blocking his legs from clipping into place. Otherwise the complex transformation is nice and fitting for a leader class figure. The kibble gun and two panels will probably pop off during transformation but it seems like the design is at fault here though.

Rating 8/10

Vehicle mode:-

Well he is very long and quite striking here well unless you pick him up as you will see the robot mode folded away underneath the jet mode. If the robot mode was black rather than the colours they choose it wouldn't stand out as much and would be a far better figure. Oh and despite the box claiming he is an autobot he possesses four decepticon symbols but doesn't have one bot symbol so you can use him as either. Oh and pressing a small button at the back of the jet mode makes jet noises. {Even when he is in robot mode.}

Rating 8/10

Final notes:
Jetfire is good but I personally would have preferred all of the dark turquoise/grey parts to be black instead which would solve the problems with the vehicle mode. I may eventually just repaint him black and add some detail to him to fix these problems myself.

Final rating:-
Robot:- 7/10
Transformation:- 8/10
Vehicle:- 8/10
Overall:- 7.7/10
