I've seriously been thinking of doing that for years. If Reprolabels made a set for one of those newer Valkyrie figures to Jetfire him up, I'd be all over it.

Just commenting in general, but I love the leader Jetfire's head with the mask on. It is so awesome and one of my favorite heads :MAXIMAL:

It's always mask on for me and the light piping is awesome. His eyes shine through the visor.

Shortly before Yamato went under, they put out an unpainted, unassembled, kit of their VF -1S, and I've been eyeing that for a couple years. I just don't think my painting skills are up for that pricey of a challenge.

I think I'm a mix of with and without the mask. And I wish I could have G1 Jetfire without the mask just for picture taking :lol:

I know I've seen some custom heads made for him somewhere, probably over in the TFW forums.

All the talk and photos made me pull JF of the shelf the other night, and for the first time I noticed just how awesome his light piping is.

That would be awesome.

I need some weapon upgrades for Alternators. I know they made some for Optimus, and Hot Rod's blaster isn't bad, but all of the other guns are Nerf'd!! And they really don't stay in the hand well. ALSO, I just noticed a fan transformation for Sideswipe so he and Sunstreaker don't look the exact same. I am so the dumb. It's so simple! Maybe I'll show it off later with the rest of the Alternators..AND MP01!!

Hahaha, awesome. That reminds me, I need to hunt for some blue or white and cheap laser pointers. The pipes, they shall be lit (or is it cleaned...). :-?

Also the articulated MP12 hands, but Reximus is the big deal. I really really really hope the QC is ok. I've read stories..

Basically the thing just falling apart. The first run, upscaled and based off of MP08X, were essentially flawless. I almost bought one, then they announced the "cartoon" color so I ordered it. Now I'm hearing people have the regrets.

I also ordered some adapters to give him articulated hands using the KFC ones designed for MP Delta Magnus. I'm hoping for the best!

I honestly like the X version better, as I really like the rich gold on it.

He has some of the best lightpiping in figures I have too, the glow of the mask is simply amazing :MAXIMAL:

I need to get on that articulated hand bandwagon, because...

Hahaaaa!!

They are nice when they work well. So far I have no complaints, except that the ones I want aren't all available from the same place so I've ended up buying sets from 3 different places :lol:
