Yeah I'm on team Jetfire. Skyfire was basically unknown to me until today. I don't think the name is nearly as divisive as the Gen leader figure.

So who's pro and who's con on the leader class Jetfire mold?

I happen to like the mold and that sexy jet is to die for.

Takara Legends Jetfire is a beaut

Ah yes, that is one attractive gent. There isn't that much of a difference from what I can see. The anklets and the prettier chest insignia, all that chrome or lack there of and that sweet extra weapon paint.

I've been considering removing the chrome from mine actually. I didn't like all the red/chrome weapons so I gave Jetfire the weapons from leader Thundercracker. TC is only rocking the null rays ;)^

Kind of always preferred calling him Jetfire myself actually over the cartoon. Though I can understand the preference for going the 'toon way with it, same with the whole Rumble and Frenzy thing. Though that has gotten hilarious at this point.

As for the toy, I didn't get the leader class, but looking at it I do think it is a nicely sculpted and designed figure. Plus the fact it got retooled it to give us Leader-sized Seekers of Starscream, Thundercracker, and Skywarp is good too.

Ah leader Jetfire. I really like him. Fun, relatively posable, looks like Skyfire AND Jetfire, much bigger than my Classics voyager. Even picked up the Mega Mon Man fillers. Just need the Reprolabels now.

I like G L JF just fine. Just had this convo somewhere else. The only thing is I find his transformation a tad annoying, but other than that he's great. Don't care that he's hollow, and I like the cheesy chrome. Best of all I like his size and the way he scales on a CHUG shelf. Oh. And his robot mode is super cool. ;)^

The most complaints I've seen about it stem from either it being simpler than people were hoping for what with it being a Leader class and all, or that they don't like how it goes from the cartoon robot mode to the toy jet mode instead of either the cartoon robot to the cartoon jet or the toy robot to the toy jet.

Or the unnecessary chrome.

I think "VF" was "Veritech Fighter"

I COULD say what I meant, but ... there's an old saying.

"How do you keep an idiot in suspense?"

I'll tell you later!

Not in The Headmasters.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Japan followed the toys' coloration and, when the G1 cartoon was dubbed into Japanese, renamed the often-seen purple/blue guy as "Frenzy" and the seldom-seen black/red guy as "Rumble".

Then, when The Headmasters came along, that cartoon continued this Japanese name scheme, referring to the purple/blue guy as "Frenzy" and the black/red guy as Rumble.

And then... there was this awkward moment in that show:

Well dang it. I thought I had something there. So, Rumble is Blue/Purple but not always as he is sometimes Red/Black, especially in Japan, or yellow/gray.

Frankly no one know which of the two that miscolored yellow guy is supposed to be.

An exclusive e-hobby repaint.

So very tempted to get a second Jetfire.
