If you're sticking with the $20 limit, Jetfire is the way to go. A lot of bang for your buck.

If you're going to go the extra ten bucks though, I'll second or third the notion of picking up Jetfire and Ramjet. Both are quality and a lot of fun to boot.

I'd take Ramjet or Voyager Prime over Jetfire any day. Jetfire's a nice enough toy, but the combination of a heavy back pack and badly thought out feet can make him pretty difficult to pose. Oh, and he could have done with rotators above his elbows.

My top 3:

Jetfire
Skids
Rollbar (A pretty good figure if you don't already have Hound or Swindle).

I found him a few weeks ago at Walmart but I didn't have any money on me. So I hid him while I went to the bank and when I got back he was gone, grr :MAD:

Anyway, now it seems I'm down to Jetfire and Skids...hmm :-?


Still say Jetfire.

Skids is as unique a figure as you will find though, so either way you win.

I have his 'brother' Silverstreak, and I love him to bits, imo he is one of the easier Alternator to transform (up there with Hound). But there could be some changes from Silverstreak to Ricochet that I am unaware of.

Stick with Jetfire or SKids, neither will let you down.
Awesomesauce; Use it, you know you want to.

Haha I should have done that with that Alt Sunstreaker I found a couple of weeks ago. I'll probably never find another one now. :cry:

Well I'm going to go back to Wal-mart tonight after class. I think I've decided to get Jetfire, if he's not there I'll go with Skids. Thanks for your help guys. I'll report back later with what I bought. :D
