This IS technically a Masterpiece Class figure minus the over-complicated transformation and the excessive price tag, he's just too beautiful! Btw, if I'm not mistaken you can flip his insignia on his chest from Autobot to Decepticon.
Yes u can
There is nothing "Masterpiece Class" about this figure, whatsoever!
@@Rodimus75 lol you've never seen a masterpiece figure then
My ass it is LOL.. not even close to MP
indeed.
yes, you can. i actually have an update video on that. thanks, bro :-)
2 points.
1: The blast effects can attach to the smaller black guns.
2: The backpack collapses up to be smaller.
First Prime, Megatron, THEN Springer and now Sky, sorry, Jetfire. Hasbro is upping their game with the toon-esque accuracy.
Probably one of the best siege figures if not the best transformers generations figure ever, defiantly getting mah boi skyfire awsome review cheafatron 👍👍👌👌
Dan200 TF definitely man. thanks bro :-)
me too
Also something to note is that you can also attach a few deluxe siege figures, or any tf with a 5mm fist hole, on the underbelly like he's dropping troops onto the field.
Can't believe you forgot to flip that logo haha. Great review.
Thank God, after 35 years, he's not a Yamato Macross lawsuit anymore
Mixey Boy oh definitely!
Woah this figure looks so nice! Can’t wait for it to be released over here! Good review! Have you decided if you will get MPM-08 yet?
Imagine being a combiner and you still get dwarfed by a jetformer
hahahaha :-)
1:02 You know you have hahaha. Awesome review, this figure is perfect. I thought they did a great job with the previous Jetfire, but i will have to sell that one now, cause it is never coming out of the box again.
I should have ordered mine from Amazon like a lot of people cuz they already got theirs. I ordered mine through BigBadToyStore and I'm still waiting for it. Nice review!
I've noticed that you've mistransformed him a bit in robot mode. the backpack is supposed to have the lower section raise on a hinge and cover up the cockpit on the upper section.
Yes!!! this really is the best war for cybertron toy- and the greatest 1985 fantasy fulfillments!!!!!
Hey man, I didn't read all your comments, so I'm not sure if somebody already mentioned it yet but the episode you are talking about in the G1 cartoon based in Peru, is called "Fire on the Mountain"
The Polar Ice Cap episode is called "Fire in the Sky" (I think you already knew that though...lol).
I just got my figure today...how long did us G1 kids have to wait for an official release Skyfire worthy of the name?
Man.....can you imagine if this guy came out back in the day??
I would love to go back in a time machine to the 1980's and show this guy to my pals...I think everyone would be my friend!!
You've serviced the Transformers community with your review mate....I tip my hat to you.
yes, thanks bro!
oh definitely. how i wished the toys back in the day looked like the toys of today!
thanks bro, i really appreciate the affirmation. really gives me strength to keep going on despite all that's happening to YT.
nice review sir franz.. i think you forgot to show the autobot insignia can also be change to decepticon...
what!!!
Brent Simard yep, it’s a callback to the g1 cartoon/lore, he was a decepticon that defected to the Autobots
Can't wait for the Repaint Siege Commander Class Jetfire...
as Decepticon Skyfire!
Miguel A R Cachero is hasbro doing that?
@@tatt4music i see. thanks
The Autobot symbol on his chest spins around to decpticon
@@marcwright8395 yes. i have an update video on just that. please check it out
The wings have the standard 5 mil pegs on each ...Show side swipe g2 side swipe r redalert pegged n alt mode under wing ...Also show legend class fig r deluxe fig n action pose hangn on each of the four carry handles under jet fire also show the details for head master placements inside the bk pk under the blue wind sheild... ty ...
So far Siege figures are following the Sunbow size chart which was part of the bible of the original series. It's actually the only viable resource to put the G1 Transformers in scale with each other considering how inconsistent the actual cartoon is.
you forgot to collapse and fold up the backpack
Cant you flip the autobot symbol to a decepticon in this guy?
EdDIE no it can’t
@@chefatron aweee mannnn when the hasbro dude showed the prototypes at toy fair had shown us how to do it it got me all excited they musta not followed through, what a bummer! Thanks mr chefatron sir 👊
EdDIE holy smokes! you’re right bro! at first i couldn’t flip it down or up but then i pushed it and the darn thing swings sideways to flip into a decepticon symbol !!! 😱 my bad man. you can totally turn his faction symbol from bot to con !
@@chefatron nice! Im stoked i need to find one now haha thanks for the confirmation chefatron!! 😳💃👊
EdDIE no prob :-) i gave you a shoutout in the update video. thanks man :-)
Love the hand mechanism... great engineering
He comes mistransformed out of the box...his backpack folds up on itself to be more compact...you left it extended in robot mode
Great review, I kind of expected for Jetfire to be huge but as tall as a combiner it’s really huge. Mine is arrive next week with Springer from Pulse. I hope I’ll bump in to you when I visit Greenhills.
Awesome review, bro! I have said that this figure is the mainline equivalent of FansToys Phoenix, meaning that it’s the best version of the character HASBRO has ever done in the mainline. When I first saw images of him I knew I wanted him in my collection definitely. I cannot wait to see the review for OMEGA SUPREME! Be looking for you to do that too, my dude!
Excellent! I've been looking for an excuse to give Hasbro money! This "studio" line is getting better and better!
A very awesome toy from Hasbro and Takara. Thanks a lot for reviewing! Hope he can make it to your 100% liking list to keep. :)
As for me, i had grown up with the CHUG figures and their sizes. And grown to love the Takara Legends Leader Class Jetfire design and size. So Siege Jetfire is not necessary for me.
Great review man I cant believe how good this figure is cant wait to find him👍
I had pre ordered mine & the mail carrier lost mine. Now I have to wait till bbts has new stock to send my replacement.
Did someone steal it?
@@radioactivsmurf don't know it was just gone
This toy is the embodiment of PERFECT
"It's always tight the first time around...so try and just be gentle with it" oh I will..... ;-)
hahaha :-)
why i go into Walmart, to get a PS4 controller charge 🔌 mouthwash and a soda
and come out with Jetfire!
Yeah, those upgrades do make the CW type Combiners a little taller. Otherwise, Jetfire is pretty much the same height. (TMan978 did a review of this figure, one of his size comparisons was Victorion...same height, and that's WITH her unique feet) I would guess that the regular craptastic hand/foot/guns as feet would make them slightly shorter, since they're flatter feet, and the Prime Armor feet would have the same height as the Victorion feet. Of course, a certain CW mold could give a little extra height - the Off-road mold as a leg; the port is designed oddly, so the peg of the hand/foot/gun can't go in all the way. Result: a slightly taller leg. It affects Off-road, First Aid, Ironhide, Trailbreaker, Ruckus, Zombie War Breakdown (from Takara's Grand Galvatron, it's the Unite Warriors version of Transformers Prime Breakdown), & Ratchet...so it's best to have two of that mold as legs. (Takara's Lynxmaster/Sky Reign actually does this: Trailbreaker & Ratchet are the legs)
So looking forward to trying to get my mitts on this next month. Oh, those pegs on the underside are meant for other figures to hold onto and "be carried into battle". Funny how Jetfire dwarfs Cyclonus...and the CW Silverbolt mold (for Silverbolt, Cyclonus, & Scattershot) makes a pretty HUGE jet.
Ehhh. I'd still wanna hunt down the old Classics Voyager version, just because it's also a rockin' figure (something that fugly Generations Leader class one was NOT).
indeed. i wish i had victorion. she went for $100 out here and i passed on her. after watching the Machinima series, i wanted to get here but she was sold out everywhere.
thanks for the info on those pegs. reminds me of old mech-tech ports, just reversed in this version.
yeah, the classics/henkei jetfire was really cool back in the day. with the helmet and all. small, and squat, but it was jetfire :-)
thanks, bro, as always, much appreciated :-)
I wish it were harder so it'll be easier to insert.
Thx for proper comparision (with something big :D). I thought he'll be CW leader size, but he is much larger :). His only flaw is price - there's 0% chance I'd be able to spend $80 + shipping costs (+customs fees?) on him :(.
Ordered this guy off Amazon. He is out of stock for the moment but I can't wait for him to come in
So torn on this. I really like it, but at the same time I am also pretty happy with the last Jetfire we got even if his alt mode isn't as G1 accurate. "Fire in the sky" was one of my favorite episodes, mainly due to nostalgia because it was one of the few episodes I had on tape so I watched it a million times as a kid. Lastly, your review can also be a drinking game. Everyone needs to take a shot when you inadvertently say a sexual innuendo.
Wow, looks much better than I expected.
I never got any of the Titan Classes because they were to big for my house.
But if they were this size it would be more ideal.
cool, man
His armored form’s mask reminds me a bit of biker and Walter from winspector
It is a homage for the original toy, that didn't look like his cartoon incarnation at all.
Nice review.
25:35 Btw his cockpit is meant for Titan and Prime Masters to sit in it, too. And I heard that even in the upper cockpit, the one in the red backpack part, there are two spots for two more Masters figures. It would be nice if you could do an update video on this especially as I've seen NO other reviewer showing this so far.
Exactly.
at 26:46 i actually show that you can put a titan master in the cockpit. please watch the video in it's entirety. thanks man :-)
@@willieleefrancis8091 at 26:46 i actually show that you can put a titan master in the cockpit. please watch first before commenting
@@chefatron Uh, I missed that. Sorry and thanks.
But what about the other cockpit? It would be nice if you could do a little update video especially as I've seen no other reviewer showing this so far. So you would be the first ;)
@@LunaticPrime i'll check that backpack once again. thanks man, but no promises.
This is an awesome and amazing figure I wish I could get one but I can't afford the aftermarket price for this thing it's amazing thanks for the video on it I just truly love this figure
keep trying bro, i'm sure you'll find this one on clearance somewhere...
Thanks I appreciate it I just found one on Amazon for $151
Thank you very much for the information I'm on my way over to Hasbro pulsar right now
You're right then nostalgia of this figure is totally g1 Man it looks like it just came out of the ice right now
I was lucky to find mine for 60€ when it got released, two years later it's practically impossible to get it for less than 200€, more expensive than a Titan at retail price, I can't imagine how expensive it will be in five years.
whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaatttt?! that's crazy man!
i'm sure Hasbro will find a way to bring down those secondary market prices by re-releasing this guy perhaps in retro packaging or part of the Legacy line...
Cool vid. Live the "blast" sound effects. Just like the sounds I made as a kid and find myself still doing when I unbox these toys as a 41 year old man-child. Haha
The Admiral thanks man :-)
oh yes definitely hahaha :-)
Thank you Chefatron for that step by step transformation
Nice video. I had some trouble at a couple of parts that this video cleared up.
This figure looks amazing I ordered this morning.jettfire is underrated
The figure looks AWESOME
Great review, kudos on remebering the cartoon episodes...so long ago!
He gets bury on the snow and on later episodes the autobots dig him out
So much innuendo in this video.
The episode was fire in the sky.
Preordered mine on Amazon a while back, only to receive my preorder got cancelled because they don't have the stock...
☆Walmart☆ has him on clearance
For $45 plus tax I'm getting him
Tomorrow if he is still there...
For anyone hunting for him at Walmart, he’s with the Godzilla Toys, every Walmart I’ve been to has him in that location
blast effects turned black and orange even though I haven't used or taken them out from their original plastic packaging. has this happened to anybody else out here?
got him on preorder and will get him delivered by july 17!
I NEVER liked the name "Jetfire"! It always conjured up images of a jet plane engulfed in flames to me. I never liked how spindly the original G1 toy was or how it looked nothing like the character that was introduced in the original cartoon. Heck, even the Marvel comics used the cartoon model! So for me, this figure will be known as "Skyfire"! All of the ugly armor attachments will be relegated to a parts bin. The blast effects are nice, as they can work as both jet thruster or weapon discharge visuals!
As far as your references to the cartoon episode "Fire in the Sky" which showcased Skyfire's first appearance, history with Starscream, and an eventual crisis of faith that led him to reject the Decepticon cause and defect to the Autobot cause...well, you succeeded in rekindling my love for the cartoon character. When Skyfire was initially recovered from his icy imprisonment in the Arctic ice and repaired by the Decepticons, there was nothing that was removed from his structure. Thundercracker mentioned that "whatever it is, being on ice kept it fresh". Skywarp chimed in saying that his impulse center was down and removed what appeared to be a piece of armor on his kneecap to show something similar to an EKG readout. Starscream ordered that he be given 50,000 volts to activate his memory monitor. Soundwave noted that his cyber-motor relays were useless, but still transmitted what appeared to be a massive burst of electricity. Starscream ordered the amperage increased to a million volts, at which point Megatron noted Starscream's concern for this creature. Then, the aforementioned memory monitor activated and visually replayed his last memory on a screen contained on his forehead beneath the blue square on his helmet's ridge.
Just got mine yesterday and man he's huge as hell but friggin awesome. He's easier to transform than Kupp which is weird.
awesome score bro!
Just got this figure today. Simply, awesome.
happy for you man
In the very start of the video when you have the robot posed the backpack is in the wrong position or maybe you wanted it that way but if not the lower part of the backpack can be raised up and placed over part of the top making it half the size. That will put the peg holds for the guns in the position they have on the box. You have the guns connected to the wings which is ok but the box have them connected to the backpack. Looks fine either way.
i do correct it later in the video when i transform the figure
Great video 👍
thanks, man :-)
After watching your video for the first time I had to run over to Walmart and sure enough there he was I had to have it... Mine had bad paint on the battle mask and chest plate... I won’t use them anyway so I got lucky... best hasbro figure release to date.
cool, man. glad you were able to get one :-)
Oh and btw the Fire in the Sky was the Peru episode if i remember brotha,. We had the vhs tapes and it made me a fan of Skyfire. We couldn't afford the figure so with legos i would make his jet mode 😂😂
yeah i remember that! oh man VHS… i feel so old 😅
I got him today along with 3 other figures. I don't even know where to begin transforming him he is the biggest individual figure that i have in my collection
awesome bro ! it's a great figure :-)
I wish the upper blue windows could also accommodate a few mini-figures.
This is an amazing figure! I just watched the second episode that he shows up in where they introduce the Insecticons. He dwarfs all the Autobots!
i know right?! really glad i bought this one again on clearance after i sold it
I finally managed to get this guy ordered yesterday for $49.41 from Amazon with free shipping because they were offering a limited time deal and I am glad that I waited and can't wait to get him next week.
wow! that is quite a steal! congrats! out here it's retailing for usd$90 to usd$100 and it's sold out even in hobby shops.
I love your videos
thanks :-)
I just got one thanks to TOYS ARE RUSS on here...I am waiting for him. Ive always loved white robots since I was a kid. He will stand next to my Commander Class Snarl Giga and power of the Primes Optimus Prime....
awesome score ! congrats man!
wow! great set up!
Does that local hobby shop have a retail web store .. with worldwide shopping !
Also the pegs you pull out are to carry legend and deluxe figures holding on
I really want different colors of blast effects, so I can mix and match them to make awesome and different colored blasts :D
yeah, that sounds interesting
HIS NAME IS SKYFIRE!!!!! I don't care what IDW and the comicbooks say. On the cartoon, his name was and still is Skyfire!!
yes, indeed
Had to buy mine for full price ($70), because I just switched from Masterpiece to Siege/Earthrise, but he is definitely worth it. Really reminds me of my old MP figures, but at a more reasonable price, and a scale that is more manageable as well.
awesome bro, that's actually a pretty good price. that's how much it retailed out here in Manila before it completely sold out. not hobby shops are selling it for $85.
glad you made the shift bro, i had to quit the MP line because the prices were just becoming crazy. the WFC trilogy really gives fans that whole G1 experience
Seen another reviewer review this big boy and he digs it, I bet you dig it too. He's HUGE!!
Ezilla82 definitely man. really glad i got rid of my other jetfire figures at a time when people were still buying them. now, with this new version, no one wants to buy those other figures now
@@chefatron I might just buy Siege Jetfire and say screw the Generations one since their wasn't really wrong with it just that he was hallow.
@@Ezilla82 awesome! this version is waaaaaayyyyy better than that older version. and scales better too :-)
@@chefatron But who knows I could buy both. But it depends on what I do. Decisions....decisions...yay.
Good job Manoy!!
hiko seijuro Manoy ?
Looks awesome, wonder how some Gray Tamiya panel lining will work on this... 👍🏼
cool man :-)
Lol that's one massive figure!!
Really cool!!
oh definitely, man :-)
Good video, this is a figure I still need to buy.
thanks :-) happy hunting !
No gerwalk mode but still a great figure
I think it's too big as a leader size.
Also are they gonna base the masterpiece from this?? Curious
Phrasing! Lol. He does look fantastic. I wonder if theyre gonna do a second commander figure in this line.
TwistedGaming918 Tidalwave, Deathsaurus, Star Saber. Maybe a properly sized Overlord and Broadside.
He looks amazing like you am glad that i pass on the other versions of him. The went all out on him on the whole like so far
can you do a unboxing on transformers botbots
This is an outstanding figure
It's so big, Yeah its difficult to put it in when its soft
It's always tight the first time... So much innuendo in one toy review 😂
This Veritech fighter is different from the ones I've seen serving under the SDF-1 Macross...
yes
It’s a nice figure but it’s too small for my MP collection.
David Nguyen it’s bigger than mp10
When you press the #siege it goes to something else 😅
If I had him I might like him better can’t say right now
He's way too large for the class! and i like it!
His chest can be flipped to change factions (for Autobot or Decepticon.)
Jetfire (Skyfire originally but before he became an Autobot) is very BIG! he also based on his G1 Cartoon and -can turn into a Gerwalk if you want to.- He's so Macross you can hear the Japanese Macross opening :D
@@twistedgaming9185 Also Years Later, Japan itself won the case against Harmy Gold for something (Robotech or Battletech?). i can't remember much of these but Harmony Gold loses the case and somewhat. they're only have limited years left, only 2 years.
It will. Since they only have until March 2021.
Yeah, Sky- Jetfire is cool
Jetfire looks amazing, I am glad Omega Supreme is not getting released until October now. :D
October? Are sure it will release in that month?
@@ozaki99 Amazon and Hasbro Pulse pushed back Omega Supreme's release date from August to October.
@@TFfangeek thank god because I really save up some cash the other guy and waiting for a review on it.
@@ozaki99 I am waiting on Jetfire, so I am glad to get another two months to save for Omega Supreme. :D
@@TFfangeek what's the estimate price for omega supreme?
I just bought a BIB siege jetfire for 120 usd plus shipping (Goshhhhhhhh!), i was just so excited/desperate and not really care anymore that what i got has some kinda yellowed shoulder and a lil mishap in the face because this figure is just pure awesome! Can you help what to use for his silver face? I mean what brand to buy? Also for the white head coz the blue paint a little bit excess. Thanks!
congrats on getting him bro!
oh sorry, i don't know much about paints for figures
Actually you can put the blast effects on his little gun things on his wings.
yes, you can. thanks, man
@@chefatron I'm grabbing this toy soon i found a lot of easter eggs on it little fun things they did to make you really look at it.
@@ethanritter9090 awesome, man
@@chefatron I love toys myself and u are really the guy that sold me on 2 toy's so far i enjoy your reviews just wanted to keep putting that there to let y'know you're doing a great job i had toys my entire life haha.
Ethan Ritter hey thanks man, i really appreciate all the support. stuff like this really means a lot and keeps me going and doing all these reviews. :-)
I've never handled something this huge since urinating... you're welcome.
hahaha
He’s a good figure I like the original better
that's cool bro :-)
It's weird tho mine hold's the gun without wobble....
Coool
I always look into skyfire sense I don’t have classic or generation skyfire the only skyfire I have is hero masher
cool :-)
