No offence to the guys at Jizai Toys, while this is visyally good and G1 Accurate, it just looks like an articulated pretender!

I like it. It's simple and complex all that the same time.

I wonder why they stopped the other figures they had planned like Ironhide and Octane. Surely those would have been better then their Hasbro counterparts.

So if I wanted to buy one of their Cyclonus or Powerglides...How can I do that? Their entire site is in Chinese/Japanese and Google Translator only does so much....?

Really? That's the face mold they're going with huh. If someone could marry that mug to Movie Bee's, I do believe you'd end up with THE ugliest TF face ever created.


And I won't even go into how she spreads for a car.

Eh, her transformation doesn't bother me.

I tend to like Jizai Toys' stuff, but they are WAY too expencive to ever buy.

Looks a little too tall and lanky. And I don't like how in the second-to-the-last-picture how her fists are taking on a blocky feel. But other than that, my small hate for 3rd party products still burns. :-x :lol:

To be fair this looks like a pretty early prototype.

Judging from their other work, I'd expect their final piece to look a lot more polished.

Agreed, I think once it's all coloured up it'll look quite the fine piece I'll never own.

Jizai makes fantastic stuff, but just not practical for us 'merkans.

Hey, go easy on the girl, she still hasn't put her make-up on yet :lol:

In all seriousness, she probably will look better w/ paint, and, as mentioned before, she could feasably undergo some light retooling before the final release

This is cool !!! I love these 3rd party figures of G1 characters never given a figure. It would look great displayed with the Arcee and Medic figures I bought. Hope the get imported by a US dealer and I will buy.


On a seperate note Randy Orton defeated Shameus in Hell in a Cell tonight !!! This was one epic fight !!!

Exactly, it's amazing how they start off with some blocky loking figure and then slow carve away t it. Also they do have a certain style of transformation mechanics, the feet nare a dead give away from who's the creator.

Interesting...

Worth looking into. Impossible's Arcee set the bar pretty low for a decent fembot.

I very much want a figure for the G1 Moonracer, Firestar Chromia, and Elita One fembots. But not like this figure.
