On the subject of Jet-Formers...

I've been looking at some of my jet TFs lately, and I'm curious what the jet modes would look like without all the robot kibble underneath. I was wondering if someone with Photoshop or something could show me...

They would probably look like ordinary jet plane toys. Or model kits maybe?

That would probably depend on which one. Some jet modes are a bit of a stretch...

Just find out what model the jet is supposed to be (tfwiki would probably have that info) and google it.

For instance, here's what a seeker (based on the F-15) would look like without lugging along any robot parts on the underside.

Of course, some jets are just made up, so you'll just have to imagine there's no kibble. It's easy if you try.

The G1 Seekers did a really good job concealing any robot parts in jet mode anyway. The worst offender I can think of here is probably RoTF Jetfire.

The F-14 is a sexy, sexy plane. I'd love to see one fly.

Agreed 100%. I honestly think it's one of the worse toys I've ever got. That 'alternate' mode is so horrible and lazy and just... :BOOM: :BANG_HEAD: :HEADHURTS:

Personally, my favorite is the F-22.
