Deja-Revolution! Interesting that another big-ol' Jetfire is the Transformer representative in yet another SDCC box set signifying yet another set of interconnected books from yet another comic company.
I wonder if anyone at Harmony Gold is interpreting Jetfire=crossover as a dig at his original Macross ties. Aside from a few laughs, nothing came of that cease and desist order over the Jetfire-ish piggyback Skystriker, did it?

While I kinda want Darak and Solia, I don't want em enough for the price of another, slightly plainer Jetfire.

I am in the same boat- I really want the VR figures, but not enough to warrant a new Jetfire--- plus when it comes to Joe I am a much bigger fan of the 25th era body, so going back to O-Rings pulls me away more sadly--- but as @Bumblevivisector said--- I passed on the Revolution set for the same reason.

Aye, the o-ring is a turn-off, for sure.

The choice to do O-rings is such a strange one. Hasbro isn't really doing O-ring figures right now so why put these non-G.I.Joe designs into that form factor? The IDW set that also featured Jetfire would have made much more sense as O-ring figures (not that they were doing any at the time, but at least it had G.I.Joe), this is just weird, I don't know who they made it for. All they really did was add $40 to the price. Could have been maybe better to do 4" figures or maybe even go the other direction with 2.5" or 3" figures. I mean, are you sticking these with your Super7 figures or Star Wars or something? As a stand alone set they can just be anything in any form factor, this set doesn't make sense I imagine a lot of people will keep it in the box.

even trying to dig into the last few Hasbro O-Ring releases, and even the Super 7 stuff I can't really identify if any of these parts are re-used from other Joes--- again not sure why they didn't go 25th body style!

I love the Energon universe books and I really like the cartoon/comic looking Skyfire. I like the gray faces and blue windows. I just have no need for this style/size of humans. If it would have been Lego mini-figures, I would be all over this. My biggest collecting wish is GI Joe/Lego crossover sets. I use Lego mini-figures as my humans. I thought there was a hope with the Prime and Bee Lego sets, but Lego says they won't make "modern day" war vehicles( although space tanks and then luftwaffe planes with Nazi pilots in Indiana Jones sets is ok) so prolly not much hope in Lego Joe sets, even though it would be amazing.
