75C's Transformers Collection
Jetfire (aka Skyfire)

"You can fall alone or you can fall together!"

Jetfire adopted the form of Earth's most advanced and adventurous craft - the Space Shuttle. He is Optimus Prime's executive officer, second in command and has the honorable and rare task of being able to combine with him - redefining the term teamwork. He exemplifies all of the special qualities found in Autobot commanders: courageous, tactically skilled, and a natural leader. Taking the time to know each Autobot, Jetfire understands their individual strengths and weaknesses - in battle, he knows exactly where each soldier will excel. While relaxed with the troops, he becomes all business when it's time for action. He is heroic in battle, caring not about size or number of enemies; with a take on all comers' mentality. Equally efficient and effective on the ground and in the air, he is air mobile and ground capable.



Likes
- great articulation
- decent robot mode
- powerlinx mode with Ironhide is superb in terms of play value and design
- decent colours - I prefer Takara's red missile gun to Hasbro's orange version

Dislikes
- what's with the gaping hole below the cockpit in vehicle mode?
- his robot head can't rotate sideways; surprised such atrocities are still allowed in Energon series >:(
- vehicle mode resembles an overweight duck IMO
- poor paint job done at cockpit and visor - and I thought Takara is always better
- ball-jointed elbows get very loose after some time. Ironhide has the same problems too
