That Optimus reminds me of a G1 Minispy! I guess we now know how the Autobots travel around the world!

those legs are the only downside to that figure.

is that supposed to be a legends OP?

The second link dosn't work for me, but from the pics posted here the figure looks interesting.

If that's Jetfire, he's a nice looking figure!

From the waist up.

Both of those figures seem way too top heavy. I'm also very sure they are transformed wrong. I like the look of the head and arms of the larger figure though. I think I'll be calling this ROTF Sky Garry until we get an official name.

This is why Hasbro hates these previews, I think the feet and legs are transformed wrong.

Also...have we seen the CGI of this? Look at 2:55 of this video:

This is definitely not Jetfire. Jetfire is supposed to be an Sr-71 Blackbird. Not an Shuttle Carrier Boeing.

Anyway the set is quite nice. The Shuttle is a little off scale. Should be larger. But I love the little cargo bay where Prime fits.

For robot mode, he looks cool from the knees up. But those legs and feet, I hope its just mistransformed.

Otherwise I actually like him.

I agree about the legs, and NO I think the Legends Op is supposed to be a lot nicer. That Op looks like a cheap KO.

Lots of back kibble, but it kinda looks like an X-wing (if you squint).

nop its a 7-something-7

I think those legs are the only weird part. What is it with movie jets and chicken legs? They're not entirely bad, just... odd. At least the long feet appear to make a good support base for the upper body.

Wonder if this guys in the movie. Part of me says no cause it looks way to much like a normal TF but another part says yes because of the chicken legs. Either way its pretty damn cool looking. What id really like to know is if that prime is a legends figure or does it come with the plane bot.

It is because Michael Bay believes that the Earth chicken is indeed "alien."

the footage at 2:55 is from a Japanese movie. I can't remember the name but I was blown away when I saw that and thought they could easily make a Transformers movie.

i looked up c.g.r.d on google and it said it was a leather chemical company or something.

by **bigwhitey21** » Sun Mar 15, 2009 12:27 am

Wow! Those legs look all kinds of awfull.. Red arms aren't helping things either. Is that a legends class OP? Looks like he came out of a cereal box. I'm actually a fan of the movie bots, but I'm just not feeling this set.

Looks like a C5 Galaxy crossed with the tail section of an AN-225 Mriya, and carrying Armada Jetfire on top.

If it is supposed to be a shuttle carrier, then it is a modified boeing 747. Very big plane...

I like this figure...the legs aren't a biggie for me, but the orange arms are kinda meh. I think gold would have gone well there...

News Credits: 668 · by **Autobot032** » Sun Mar 15, 2009 12:57 am

That... is one ugly figure.

An easy, easy pass for me. The only thing going for it is the cargo bay gimmick, that's kinda cool, actually. That's all it has in the plus side.

...although it does look like he's taking a Prime dump.

I like how he's got the space shuttle on top that can act as a gun. Kind of targetmaster-y. But those limbs are just horrible. Spindly works for Ransack, but I imagine a cargo plane would have meatier arms and legs than that.
