More Images of Legends Jetfire
More images of the Legends version of Jetfire have appeared on TF08.net. The images show a better look at Blackbird alt mode. While the toy seems rather unimpressive, keep in mind that Legends line is about $4 retail, at most two inch tall toy designed mostly as an easy buy with very simple transformation. It is not something I would use to indicate what a larger toy would look like and almost nothing about how the character will transform in the movie. Thanks to Phil for the pictures.

Jetfire looks fucking awesome. His head looks like some sort of dragon and seems to have an overbite. The arms seem really skinny, akin to Starscream's frame. Not exactly G1, but come on, what did we expect after the first movie?
ReplyDeleteWarp-Tech? BRING IT ON!
I'm sorry but I'm not feeling Jetfire's robot design. His head looks like a twisted robotic version of a xenomorph's head from H.R. Giger's designs for the "Alien" movie, and what the fuck is up with all the plane robots having fucking chicken legs? I think Bay should have stuck close to the Transformers:Alternators or Binaltech aesthetic when designing the robots.
ReplyDeleteWhile I didn't expect an exact replica of G1, I'm sick of all this animalistic/beast-looking shit. In my opinion Jester/Jolin's fan sketch is a hell of a lot better, and if it was up to me, I'd hire Jester/Jolin and the guy that designed that Long Haul movie version as the designers. I could be wrong though, we'll see when the film comes out. I'm even MORE cautiously optimistic after seeing this design.
I know I heard people saying now you can see the head clearly, but I still can't see it :(
ReplyDeleteI can't believe that Jetfire really looks like that. Now I'm starting to think that will Jetfire ever be an Autobot. His robot mode makes me think that Jetfire is a Decepticon all times.
ReplyDeleteIn the words of Arnold in Predator.
ReplyDeleteThis is one ugly M*&^%$ F*@#%%
Worst transformer ever I hope he cratches in the ice and doesnt comeback.
I don't know, this might work.
ReplyDeleteI wasn't crazy about the design when the first pics came out, but maybe this will work.
I can't see the head that well. Is that whole thing the head? if so, lame.
The long chicken legs are dumb, but then again how else would it stand.
Huh, just not exactly jumping up and down to see this one on screen.
Who knows, maybe it will change my mind.
GOD... It's. Just. A. Legends Class! Don't expect it to be so freakin complex and detailed. Just wait for a Voyager, or Leader class version, will ya?
ReplyDeleteGeeeezzz...
He kinda reminds me of Lazengann from Gurren Lagann.
ReplyDeleteIf you see closely on his left arm there's some sort of blaster, and the arms duck under the cockpit in his alt mode. That could be that Wormhole-Technology we've been raving about.
ReplyDelete"it was up to me, I'd hire Jester/Jolin and the guy that designed that Long Haul movie version as the designers."
ReplyDeleteThe guy that did Long Haul actually WAS hired to do TF2.
Man, when I picture this character in my dream mid-air-fistfight-with-Starscream, it doesn't come out so cool. :\
ReplyDelete"Worst transformer ever I hope he cratches in the ice and doesnt comeback."
ReplyDeleteWhat does cratch mean? Is it another term for a bowel movement?

It's just a cry from another fanboy, who can't understand that world can't stays still, and must go on...
Maybe when Jetfire turns to an Autobot, he scans a new alternate mode. I've seen a white plane where is a symbol of the Autobots. That might be Jetfire as an Autobot. But it's just a rumor, until someone confirms it.

ReplyDeleteThat's actually Bay's private plane.
Hey, I have never hearded about it.
ReplyDeleteBut if Jetifre's robot mode is like that, how it could be ever possible that he ever turns to an Autobot? He cannot be a Decepticon all times in live action continuity. Jetfire has always been an Autobot.

ReplyDeleteNormaly... My sister also looks scary, but she doesn't always act like a spawn of satan... She is sometimes quite nice.
