It looks alright. To be honest, I'm looking forward to the smaller figures in the set rather than this one.

I'm just glad they found another use for the mold--one of the best Jetfires ever.

I'm still holding out hope that Darkwing is one of the secret convention figures but I don't think he will be since we've already seen Alpha Trion.

Isn't it clear by now a TF named "Darkwing" is impossible? Darkwing was the one with the sweeping wings in G1 you know
Plus, I can image it being lost since G2: hence G2 Smokescreen for G2 Dreadwing...
Figure still looks good though

why its boring as hell. if anything they should have done thrust as a non exclusive. dreadwind has shitty colors looks like the fuckin easter bunny....awwwwww so cute...I would really like to see the robot conventions go back to how they used to be...u know an every mans convention and not just for people who have a ton of dough.. its a shame how much these things costs now, I think doing smaller fairs created and run by fans and more of them would cure that real fast.

its all about supply and demand, if exclusive producers make more money by making the supply extremely low and rediculously expensive than if there were a million of them for $1 each...than this trend will just continue
seeing that this set was sold out so fast, im betting that next year there will be a similar exclusive and the price will be as high if not higher...i dont like it when exclusives turn in this direction

I wonder if the watch actually works, or is the time and date only painted on?

Personally, I think that Dreadwind looks horrible - that's a real good mold but the masses of dull grey plastic and the turquise & purple are just ugly.
This figure is both gaudy and boring at the same time.
Botcon can have this one. (can we haev sum Thrust? peez!)

Well they don't call it 'Real Gear' for nothing! Actually... yeah.. it's probably just painted on.
