Uhhh, i will stick to my Classics Jetfire. He kicks twelve kinds of ass without the box even being open.

He is the reason Transformers kick so much ass.

Interesting Transformations there. Vector Prime does indeed rock!
Here are some unreleased pics from my "balancing act" session, (as seen in my sig), from a while back.

I have to admit, out of Vector Prime and Jetfire, Vector Prime is the one I revisit more often (read: play with when no-one's looking). Jetfire is a good toy but he doesn't sparkle for me. However, his comic accuracy is astounding, which is why I bought him.

He was my first Galaxy Force purchase and I love the figure. Not just like but love it. He's quite possibly one of my most satisfying purchases ever. Classics Jetifre is awesome too but he's got nothing on Vector Prime.
:BOT:

I'm telling you man, there is just something that's
more than meets the eye about him!

I forgot to express my love for Safeguard as well. He's a spiffing Minicon.

Your custom modes require a bit of imagination to see..... but that's fine with me :lol:

If you have any other ones for other figures or want to check out some other intresting transformations, check thisy thread here, it needs help to keep it from falling into oblivion

You do make me chuckle, in a good way.

Did Safeguard ever fly as a spaceship in the comic or cartoon?

I also like how Vector Prime and Safeguard have almost the same transforation: fold the arms down, tuck the legs under, flip a giant thing off his back and over his head. It's cute, like a sort of mini-Vector or Vector, Jr.

and when he attaches to VP in starship mode, it looks good!
doesn't look out of place AT ALL!

btw just out of curiosity,
my VP is the gold one, and on his chest,
he has a glitter blue gemstone.

for the other color VPs, it looks red,
is it glittered also?

I can't remember off hand. It's certainly very shiny, because it reminded me of a ruby or laser matrix or something. Whether or not it's actually glittered, I'd have to check tonight. Maybe you can tell from Ryan's gallery?

I can't tell man.

I bet that it IS glittered!
makes ALL variations of VP COOL in my book!

I think I'd like VP a LOT more if it wasnt for that damned bendy plastic. Totally ruins what is otherwise a good toy IMO.

man...VP is pretty damn flexible for one of the original 13

Are the original 13 supposed to be tough? I suppose one has to be flexible when ones has to jump between dimensions and back and forth through time.

VP is one instance where the Takara version is flat out superior.
