| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898390) Posted by Wheelimus Prime on March 14th, 2009 @ 11:14pm CDT those legs are the only downside to that figure. is that supposed to be a legends OP? | |

| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898399) Posted by Burn on March 14th, 2009 @ 11:28pm CDT If that's Jetfire, he's a nice looking figure! From the waist up. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898401) Posted by Down_Shift on March 14th, 2009 @ 11:34pm CDT Both of those figures seem way too top heavy. I'm also very sure they are transformed wrong. I like the look of the head and arms of the larger figure though. I think I'll be calling this ROTF Sky Garry until we get an official name. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898403) Posted by GetterDragun on March 14th, 2009 @ 11:41pm CDT
This is why Hasbro hates these previews, I think the feet and legs are transformed wrong. Also...have we seen the CGI of this? Look at 2:55 of this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jyfk6Zo7HtM | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898405) Posted by Overcracker on March 14th, 2009 @ 11:43pm CDT This is definitely not Jetfire. Jetfire is supposed to be an Sr-71 Blackbird. Not an Shuttle Carrier Boeing. Anyway the set is quite nice. The Shuttle is a little off scale. Should be larger. But I love the little cargo bay where Prime fits. For robot mode, he looks cool from the knees up. But those legs and feet, I hope its just mistransformed. Otherwise I actually like him. | |

I agree about the legs, and NO I think the Legends Op is supposed to be a lot nicer. That Op looks like a cheap KO. Lots of back kibble, but it kinda looks like an X-wing (if you squint). | |

| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898411) Posted by Swiftpaw on March 15th, 2009 @ 12:00am CDT I think those legs are the only weird part. What is it with movie jets and chicken legs? They're not entirely bad, just... odd. At least the long feet appear to make a good support base for the upper body. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898412) Posted by Megatron Wolf on March 15th, 2009 @ 12:09am CDT Wonder if this guys in the movie. Part of me says no cause it looks way to much like a normal TF but another part says yes because of the chicken legs. Either way its pretty damn cool looking. What id really like to know is if that prime is a legends figure or does it come with the plane bot. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898414) Posted by MYoung23 on March 15th, 2009 @ 12:11am CDT
It is because Michael Bay believes that the Earth chicken is indeed "alien." | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898416) Posted by omega666 on March 15th, 2009 @ 12:14am CDT
the footage at 2:55 is from a Japanese movie. I can't remember the name but I was blown away when I saw that and thought they could easily make a Transformers movie. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898417) Posted by Rumbler on March 15th, 2009 @ 12:18am CDT
That was from a Japanese movie called Returner http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5kThJGtcVqU | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898418) Posted by roll out on March 15th, 2009 @ 12:24am CDT i looked up c.g.r.d on google and it said it was a leather chemical company or something. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898419) Posted by bigwhitey21 on March 15th, 2009 @ 12:27am CDT Wow! Those legs look all kinds of awfull.. Red arms aren't helping things either. Is that a legends class OP? Looks like he came out of a cereal box. I'm actually a fan of the movie bots, but I'm just not feeling this set. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898421) Posted by Dark Ops on March 15th, 2009 @ 12:30am CDT Looks like a C5 Galaxy crossed with the tail section of an AN-225 Mriya, and carrying Armada Jetfire on top. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898423) Posted by First-Aid on March 15th, 2009 @ 12:32am CDT
If it is supposed to be a shuttle carrier, then it is a modified boeing 747. Very big plane... I like this figure...the legs aren't a biggie for me, but the orange arms are kinda meh. I think gold would have gone well there... | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898437) Posted by Autobot032 on March 15th, 2009 @ 12:57am CDT That... is one ugly figure. An easy, easy pass for me. The only thing going for it is the cargo bay gimmick, that's kinda cool, actually. That's all it has in the plus side. ...although it does look like he's taking a Prime dump. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898438) Posted by UltraPrimal on March 15th, 2009 @ 12:57am CDT I like how he's got the space shuttle on top that can act as a gun. Kind of targetmaster-y. But those limbs are just horrible. Spindly works for Ransack, but I imagine a cargo plane would have meatier arms and legs than that. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898439) Posted by NuclearConvoy on March 15th, 2009 @ 1:06am CDT I like his legs a lot. His face reminds me of Beast machines Optimus Primal. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898440) Posted by Serpent O - R on March 15th, 2009 @ 1:07am CDT His "toes" need to be flipped up 90%. I don't think this guy is in the film because he looks too "transformery". If he is in the movie, and that little Prime is to scale, we might have a contender to go against Devastator... Or there is a seen where Prime drives out the back of a cargo jet and hasbro said, "Great! Mold it, that's an easy $500k." I believe the little Prime is packaged with the Plane, fits too well. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898442) Posted by Wheeljack144 on March 15th, 2009 @ 1:09am CDT The legs work because they support the character better...hes too top-heavy the way the torso works out. Though I do like seeing robots with more humanoid legs though. Seriously, the arms are what vexes me. Can't we work out a better paint palette, maybe more military drab? | |

| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898477) Posted by TheAllSpark on March 15th, 2009 @ 4:27am CDT Is it just me or the new Transformer Movie toys look more and more butt ugly? In the first one we had a few ones so ... different we didn't even recognized the characters... lets say... Ironhide. But those were somewhat cool in there Michael Bay kind of way. But these guys??? With the exception of Sideswipe and maybe Sideways (still need to see better pictures before making a final opinion about this one) the rest are just so damn! ugly I don't know how anyone will spend money on this transformers. But I know many will. I know | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898481) Posted by Chaoslock on March 15th, 2009 @ 4:47am CDT Revenge of the Gobots... Seriously, I've seen knockoffs with better engineering. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898488) Posted by Narc on March 15th, 2009 @ 6:23am CDT Chicken legs and large back kibble... I'll pass. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898489) Posted by Predacon_X on March 15th, 2009 @ 6:26am CDT Just throwing this out there ... but, Sky Lynx ... | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898495) Posted by Forgotten on March 15th, 2009 @ 6:51am CDT So this is how OP combines with a jet in the movie. It may not be Jetfire, but let me tell you how it goes. This jet is being picked on by Starscream for being an inferior wussy Autobot version of him that's overweight. The new jet's feelings are hurt so he calls OP. When OP arrives the new jet shoves OP up his drop bay for an added boost. I always knew Michael Bay was a Decepticon Pretender. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898496) Posted by Autoclot on March 15th, 2009 @ 6:56am CDT I don't think that bot mode looks sufficiently movieverse-ish to actually be a part of the film. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898498) Posted by Ravage XK on March 15th, 2009 @ 6:57am CDT AAARRRGGGHHH! If Hasbro cannot even be arsed to put some EFFORT into their products them they deserve to not to sell any. That thing is UGLY. Honestly, its like one of those cheap knock offs that you see in the newsagents for £1.99. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898505) Posted by DMSL on March 15th, 2009 @ 7:42am CDT I hope that figure is not in the movie, it looks like a cheapass knockoff that you can get for 5 bucks from any hardware store's toy aisle. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898509) Posted by astig on March 15th, 2009 @ 8:03am CDT i dont think thats jetfire. he's too big to combine with OP. also, they could have just put legends OP there instead of the crappy one. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898537) Posted by Im_Ruined on March 15th, 2009 @ 9:07am CDT goddamnit! Ijust bought the toys r us deceptcon jet storm version of this last week for $28 & sadly this looks better | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898544) Posted by typh0id on March 15th, 2009 @ 9:17am CDT Both of these look completely ludicrous.... | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898569) Posted by Giant Purple Griffin on March 15th, 2009 @ 10:38am CDT The Prime looks like a "mini-figure" that is included--kind of like how Blackout came with a little Scorponok to carry around. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898573) Posted by YRQRM0 on March 15th, 2009 @ 10:46am CDT If this is Jetfire, Hasbro seriously screwed up the colors and the mould itself. I'm thnking the plane carries Optimus in the movie, but the plane itself is not a transformer. Hasbro just made it that way like they did to longarm and incinerator in the first movie. On the other hand, if this bot is in the movie, he's gonna be huge, but Optimus appears to be the same size as that little shuttle on top of the bot, so I don't think optimus comes with him. Unless this is yet another case of terrible disproportionalism. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898574) Posted by dragons on March 15th, 2009 @ 10:49am CDT
in that video thats not transformer movie the movie is called the returner a japanese movie where alien vehicals take forms of earth planes & jets complelty differnt from what where loking at here but simaler. nice figure ill buy it my only question is will this guy stan on his own if you extend his legs up & not in that starscream frog leg pose.? he be even bigger if you starten his legs more same size as unircon maybe? | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898584) Posted by zero-kaiser on March 15th, 2009 @ 11:02am CDT I want to like this... I really do.. but too many things about it dont sit right with me. The head, arms and legs I think really kill the robot mode. I like the concept and the vehicle mode.. but theres just way too much about it that I dont like. The colour scheme seems really uninspired to. I have to say this is probably the first ROTF I've taken an instant dislike to. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898611) Posted by shadowsfm on March 15th, 2009 @ 12:00pm CDT i like him, its like he has a gundum backpack. he may be sky linx or a reformatted jet fire see his mech alive in his arm? ![]() | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898620) Posted by Agent 007 on March 15th, 2009 @ 12:23pm CDT looks alright but I'll pass I like the little prime too. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898626) Posted by Giant Purple Griffin on March 15th, 2009 @ 12:42pm CDT This is definitely not Jetfire. It looks nothing like the Legends, FAB, "gun piece" or any of the other pictures and rumors that already been posted. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898631) Posted by Downbeat on March 15th, 2009 @ 12:51pm CDT Movieverse Last Autobot? Similar scale with Optimus Prime, similar colors and head, and both turn into a jet. I wasn't the first to note this, but I agree with the theory. Considering Fallen's in the film, it's possible. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898637) Posted by usagiz on March 15th, 2009 @ 12:58pm CDT Who fights devastator? OMEGA SPREEM? Or Crossguard C.S.G.D | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898664) Posted by Nemesis Primal on March 15th, 2009 @ 1:53pm CDT If this is a Voyager, that Op looks to be mini-con size, possibly smaller, which explains why they didn't do something about the torso: anything they could do would likely be too breakable. And he's still the same sizeas the space-shuttle gun, which I forsee people bitching about. This is not a toyline where scale is a major concern, people, and the sooner you get used to that, the happier you'll be. For some reson, the head reminds me of Rail Racer. For that matter, the chest looks a little bit Rail Racer-y, too. (The train combiner from RiD, in case you need to look it up. The legs? Eh, a little reminiscent of Beas Machines Cheetor, but given that this is a movie-style design, that's par for the course. Not a deal-breaker for me. In general, a nice toy, and it somehow softens the blow of RotF steamrolling the hell out of my beloved Animated toyline and ending the not-as-cool-as-Animated-but-still-pretty-nice Universe line. (Still, I wish they'd given the shuttle its own robot mode instead of a spring-loaded projectile. I know, I know, budget, but the space shuttle is one of my favorite alt modes.) | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF OP Toy & New Transport Plane Bot! (898674) Posted by OmarJT82 on March 15th, 2009 @ 2:17pm CDT WOW! Now that is one monster of an Autobot, especially a Voyager Class one! Here are some possible names for the figure: 01) Blaster 02) Broadside 03) Bulkhead 04) Cloudburst 05) Cloudraker 06) Cosmos 07) Overload 08) Scattershot 09) Sky Lynx 10) Sky Shadow 11) Strafe 12) Topspin 13) Treadbolt 14) Windrazor 15) Wing Saber I hoping that they name the figure Sky Lynx! | |
