So what cliffjumper do you like?

Feel free to discuss anything about any of the thousands of Transformer toys here. Anything from Generation 1 all the way to the soon to be released, the never to be released or the hope to be released is fair game! Want to show off your stuff? Please post your's and see others in the Transformers Collections Forum.

I saw Peaugh's review as well and I agree. It's not nearly as bad as initial pictures made it seem. However I already have FE CJ and I still like him more mostly because of the alt mode colors, cheat-less transformation, and slightly bigger size. But if I wasn't able to get the FE, I could be happy with RID.

It's kind of a moot point since I'll probably get totally fished in and buy the RID mold for the Micron, despite having the Takara FE already.

It does make me glad that the Takara Cliffjumper and the Hasbro Starscream are the only FE deluxe molds I decided to pick up. I'm still not sold on "I'm a gigantic motorcycle!" Arcee yet, Micron or no.

Sadly I can't afford Takara toys unless they're WAY better than the Hasbro ones (Ratchet I hope), so they're all moot to me. :lol:

That review does make RiD Cliff look far more palatable... and I do like that the legs are far more accurate. The one thing I don't get though.... what's with the "fake wheels" on the backs of his legs? What purpose do they serve?

^ Screen accuracy I assume, which is dumb because they left them unpainted.

I like them both...but I picked the RID version up because it is available and much less expensive at this point

Hm. Is that actually where his wheels go in the CGI model?

That's strange... it almost looks like he has six wheels then. The two on the backs of his legs, the two within the structure of each foot, and then the two around his elbows... or am I miscounting something?

The RID one has it's perks, but IMO, the only thing FE's got on RID is flip-out guns and the legs look are better.
