Confused, Is this kit being sold on all or some of the USA based and overseas import sites. Or is it being sold privately on this guys site?

Love the gap fillers on the thighs.

Wondering if this kit has gap fillers for the forearms. Guessing they might not be needed as the red forearm guns get attached in those areas.

Don't need the gun mount thing.

Would like others kits that include replacement forearms with rotate fist and articulated hands.

Might need to these kits in Thundercracker blue for the 2015 leader generations toys.

Megamoonman is a guy at TFW who uses his own 3D printer to make custom parts.

I'm not a huge fan of the mould, but I think these parts are immensely useful.

If he sells them on ebay or a popular usa based import site, Then i'll feel more comfortable buying them.

Might just be interested in buying the gap fillers parts and not the gun mount parts. Hopefully he sells them separate and not in a bundle kit.

I ordered his Metroplex upgrades. They were very high quality. Absolutely no complaints from me.

And suddenly, I feel the need to buy the Generations Jetfire mold.

Seriously, that fixes basically every problem I have with him.

I might be getting these. Wish the Mechaform Sky Guardian was coming out though.

The gap fillers kit is nice and I plan to buy it. But I feel creating replacement forearms with rotate wrist and articulated fingers is higher priority.

Other things I'd like for 3rd parties to create for this toy is a 1985 Style hand held weapon and all of that snap on red armor gear.

If we're talking about just what we wish would happen, it'd be pretty sweet is someone made a cartoon accurate backpack and nosecone for this. It would never be 100% cartoon accurate, but it'd be something I'd be interested in.

i DO want a set of these, but it would be for the takara version. and i wondering if their jetfire will be the same white as hasbros...

These are nice, but I think I can accomplish the same thing with self hardening clay.

I would rather they do something like the g1 toy for the forearm... the red box things.

The official comes with some, but they have that annoying long missile piece attached.

I want that for the legs.

The stupid guns that point at his armpits are lame.

Are those the final product? Looks rough on the edges.

Apparently these are being done on a home 3D printer, so you are likely to have a little more roughness to them than a cast piece.

I'm fairly uncomfortable with 3D printed parts, but this really does solve a major problem with Gen Jetfire.

I'll think about it.

Decided not to buy this kit. Think the different shades of white and the rigid sculpted plastic look awful in this kit. Also don't see any gloss on the plastic.

The gaps don't bother me as much as the non rotate fist and no articulation in the fingers. If a 3rd party every creates newer forearms with new rotate fist and articulated fingers than i'll buy this.

You could always paint the pieces, they are 3D printed after all and not factory produced items. I've got this set on arder which is currently being shipped, now all I need is the Takara Jetfire I have on pre order!

From what I've seen, the grainy plastic is fairly easy to sand smooth, so there's that.

This gap filler kit works really well. My favourite part is the weapon holder, the guy did a really good job, it fits perfectly.
