When does JetFire ever look like that? It's more like a Cybertron re-paint of Starscream that is "Jetfire Inspired."

It might as well just be called "White with Red Seeker" repaint.
In a place such as this, you are the perfect prey for a brest animal!

That's what 90% of the BotCon figures are. And actually, JetFire did look similar to that in his Cybertronian form.

If it's legit, it looks very bootleggish. The paint, the Decepticon logos...my guess is it's a bootleg.

I would expect the Decepticon insignia to be red just as the Autobot insignia is purple this time. Its a shame there are 4 autobots and only 1 decepticon in the Shattered Glass set. I would hope for more balance in the set up.

I still regret never picking up the GalaxyForce version of Starscream.

I’m really liking this one and since I missed out on the voyager version it might be worth a small sum. I was hoping for a supreme repaint to go along with supreme Starscream though.

Doesn't it seem more likely that this is the "heroic" Starscream that is supposed to come in the boxset, rather some version of Jetfire?

I'd be suspicious about someone selling an exclusive item before the botcon. I say this cos I've already been burned :sad: :-x :evil: :oops:

That's no bootleg people.

We're getting Decepticon JetFire! WooT!

Rumors of this mold being in the set have been fairly consistant.

Really, really nice...

He looks good, but I was really hoping they would use the energon Starscream mold. Either way anything is better than the Cybertron Thunderchracker mold...

I like how they went for the Jetfire colors, works pretty well for the heroic Starscream.

It's not Starscream though. If it is real, and I'm inclined to think it is, it really is a "heroic" Jetfire.

Why? Because SOMEONE had to break the mold of "good is evil and evil is good simplicity."

Why else? Because the box set comes with a mini-con called Razorclaw. And the general consensus is that it means we're getting a repainted ARMADA Starscream with a repainted Swindle.

It's Jetfire and it's an add-on. Let the hue and cry begin.
