Black and chrome, yeah, that looks nice.

The fact that you can combine the Striker, Jet Wing and Jetfire altogether is a stellar combo, never seen that before, guess I wasn't paying close enough attention.

I thought the prices for Jetfire would slow down a bit, but after seeing this I only see a higher demand for him.

So glad I pre ordered this guy with Robot Kingdom months ago. Only problem is that I have no idea how to track my order or anything. They're a reliable group of people, but the website is EXTREMELY bare bones.

I was hoping it would be a decepticon not just another optimus Prime!

He's so pretty and violent looking.

Great! The Asian fans get two, count 'em TWO versions of this awesome movie-accurate Prime, while we in America get squat. Damn you Hasbro! :-x

Ranting and raving aside, this is a nice looking piece, though he might have looked better with the mouth plate intact.

Y U NO faceplate...

I own buster and he does not have a faceplate... now this does not too? Takara is really trying to get me to get this and striker prime... Does this still have electronics? Cause Striker's electronics have been stripped.

The Striker's electronic was stripped?? I think you just need to put the battery back. I should try it out tonight.

Bad time to mention that he (the initial release) was made available in Australia?

And insult gets added to injury as irresistibly as chocolate does to peanut butter. :BANG_HEAD:

Oh, no faceplate? Well, I'm significantly less interested. And while I like some chrome, the wings are a bit extreme. I guess I'm glad I can't afford it!
