Following out earlier article on the Siege wave 3 Deluxe Class figures' stock photos, Forbidden Planet also has some fancy stock images of Siege Commander Class Jetfire! We also get a great look at the art in the front. We have had stock images of this lad before, from Takara Tomy, as seen here.

The toy is being sold at £79.99, approximately $89.77 USD, and is expected to start shipping out on August 11th, and can indeed be pre-ordered. If you are a fan in the United Kingdom, this could be your chance to order it, with £5.50 shipping! Click here to go to the page, or click any of the images below! As for the toy itself, do these new images want you to buy it more? Tell us nay thoughts in the Pub forums below.

(as a bonus, Leader Galaxy Upgrade Optimus is up with his stock images too!)

I had previously seen the Jetfire stock images on TFW when someone from The Fwoosh posted them there. In classic Hasbro stock photo fashion, the figure is slightly mistransformed in robot mode (the backpack should be slid upwards to conceal the blue cockpit on it)

Wow! I've had a long day! Lore Keeper, Goats, thanks for pointing out the new head on Red Alert.
I didn't even see it right away. If the omission of the red biceps and tampoed symbols was a trade up for a new head, I'll gladly accept the trade.

The changes to Red Alert's deco are disappointing, but I will still get him. I already bought a second Sideswipe just so I could give Red Alert a shoulder cannon. Now I'll have to buy a second Prowl to give Red Alert a proper bright red light bar. I'll have to figure out something to do with the extra Sideswipe and Prowl figures, though.

I have 1 question/minor complaint: why does Jetfire have black feet?

He's always had black feet

red alerts also got less red on his legs (what would be under vehicle mode but front facing in robot mode). They have still kept the unnecassary black near the windshield whicch is one of put offs anyways (like hasbro CW stunticons). Still sticking to the classics for nearly all the carbots this line or waiting for a line that has Earth alts (or actual cybertronian style alts like some of the siege figures have).

Every time I see this guy I just hear Rom saying “Liquidator Brunt!”

That’s EX-Liquidator.

Jetfire's rifle looks really nice. He looks nice all over. I was hoping I could swear off the character because of how expensive he is, but I'm probably not going to be able to.

I hadn't planned on getting Red Alert anyway, being perfectly happy with my Universe 2.0 version, but the Siege Red Alert had looked just fine, until I saw that alt-mode, WTF?! That is horrendous!!

I don't think the light bar is actually black. If you look at the edges of the bar in the bot mode picture it looks more like a deep red.

I can definitely see it being a very dark red.

I'm calling it now. I can totally see Brunt being repainted into Tankor. If not for Siege, then within 1 of the next 2 in the Trilogy.

Jetfire looks great, but I don't think I care enough to drop a ton of money on him when I'm okay with the T30 version I have.

By the way do we know if the Commander Class is going to be 'one-per-line' like (most) Titans? Given the down scaling of Leaders to two figures (with a third as a retool) my guess would be a solid 'yes' unless that Astrotrain rumour is true.

More like "once per year" (Fortress Maximus was 2016, Trypticon 2017), but yeah until further notice I'd expect just one for now. There may be some wiggle room somewhere in future tho.

Finally got around to opening and playing with Ironhide. I really like the figure ... far superior to the CW version. But man, those side leg panels pop off if you even look at it funny. Sixgun is neat but doesn't quite feel like a $20 figure.

Well, he isn't. He's a 20$ Accessory pack that double as a figure!

Yup pretty much! Gotta say tho, Ironhide looks pretty sweet when loaded up with Sixgun.
