And are either of those this thread? No. I was responding to the information you provided in this thread, because that was immediately at hand. In this thread, you only mentioned having BM Jetstorm variants.AllNewSuperRobot wrote:ZeldaTheSwordsman wrote:You didn't say you had multiple Cyclonus variants, you said you had multiple Jetstorm variants.
I have both. As noted in the 'toy haul' and 'on your desk threads'.
Fine, but what about it screamed "Jetfire"? I'm having a hard time seeing it.AllNewSuperRobot wrote:ZeldaTheSwordsman wrote:Still waiting on your explanation for how he resembles G1 Jetfire more, by the way.When his design always screamed Jetfire to me: All he was missing was a Jetfire paint job.
No, it wasn't baiting... I just thought Storm Jet worth mentioning because you brought up the subject of BM Jetstorm being repainted into Jetfire. Storm Jet is the closest we've had to that, so I thought it was relevant...AllNewSuperRobot wrote:ZeldaTheSwordsman wrote:And I know that that's a different mold.

I initially brought it up because it was a Jetfire-inspired redeco (albeit toy-based rather than cartoon-based) of a BM Jetstorm toy.
I'm arguing over it because you claim that it somehow looks more like Strafe and I don't see how you can justify that claim.
1)So baiting then? Lucky me to fall for it, I guess
Well, then I guess from my perspective it ends on a confusing cliffhanger.AllNewSuperRobot wrote:2)Because I own the figures and know what I'm talking about. The End.
Well, that depends on whether whoever had the trademark at the time of Energon has let it lapse.bluecatcinema wrote:Siege Jetfire is the best in my opinion. Excellent G1 cartoon accuracy.
And I kind of wish they'd revive the "Skyfire" name somewhere down the line.

I know he was that large in the G1 cartoon, but I've never really liked how the cartoon sizes things. I like how 30th Jetfire (and YotS Omega Supreme for that matter) are sized relative to others TFs.
And now, to be a total hypocrite....
This guy will forever by my Decepticon Jetfire. Not because he scales well. I just think the colours are fantastic. I also like the mould even if it's really showing it's age these days.
ZeroWolf wrote:Couldn't you just photoshop Jetfire's colours on any jet and say it's a resemblance? There's no design cues on jetstorm that invoke Jetfire. Though, jetstorm did always remind me of one of the other macross mecha in vehicle mode. I think the one the rival used in Macross Plus. Purely for the shape of the wings.
It's just like my opinion man and in my opinion the only Jetfire that matters is G1 toy Jetfire.ZeldaTheSwordsman wrote:Carytheone, this list isn't limited to G1 Jetfire and one of your suggestions doesn't even transform.
You can, it's just... It's been really bugging me to see people glamorizing T30 Jetfire and minimizing its flaws, while simultaneously talking as if SIEGE Jetfire was no more complex than Cybertron Thundercracker and outright ignoring the Classics Voyager's existence. That feels like it crosses from disliking them, into smearing one and shunning the other. And that makes me want to push back by mercilessly pointing out everything wrong with the T30 toy while also pointing out how the Classics Voyager exists and shares a lot of its positive qualities.carytheone wrote:It's just like my opinion man and in my opinion the only Jetfire that matters is G1 toy Jetfire.ZeldaTheSwordsman wrote:Carytheone, this list isn't limited to G1 Jetfire and one of your suggestions doesn't even transform.
My list is also obviously trolly bullshit. I purposely picked bad representations with T30 being the top spot. I own T30 and Siege and I like T30 better, but I also like Siege just fine. To me they are both good toys in different ways.
Also, why are you trying to talk everyone out of liking T30 Jetfire so bad. You've been going on about it for days in several places. Sup with that? Can't we have different opinions?

He's pretty ok, but the clear plastic used in his and his twin's construction brings it down a bit.
