Jetfire.

Best transformer ever. Basically a repackaged Macross, but still kick ass!



I still have mine, but it's admittedly not in as good shape as the photo above...

I had one (long ago) that I painted to look just like Roy Fokker's Skull Leader from Robotech. I used paint thinner to remove the red paint from the wings, nose, tail, etc. then repainted it yellow and black in the appropriate locations, and even put a skull/crossbones on the tail.

I also painted the rocket boosters and arm/leg armor grey. It was awesome.

Jeff? I'm not Jeff... :p

I have all 5 episodes downloaded from napster some years ago. I'll see if I can make a DVD or CD or something. PM me your address and I'll find a way to get it to you.

My brother was ranting and raving about it. He thought it was awesome. I have to watch it when I get a chance.

Jetfire is the best transformer ever.

that You tube thing is somewhat fake. one of the transformers was from a nike commercial and another is from some cg that a random guy did. not the movie.

Don't make me bust out my collection... Hehehheeeh... From Voltron to Transformers to Macross... I'VE GOT THEM ALL... Hehhehehehe... I'll post pics... They're all sitting in boxes at my old room in my parents house... Hehhehehehe... MB, wait til you see what i've got... Hehhehehehe...

You could make some serious cash on eBay with that AirB...

My Aunt used to work at the US Embassy in Tokyo and for B-days and Xmas I'd always get all the different toys from Voltron, Robotech and many others never seen in the states well before they became popular here. If I knew then what I know now I would've kept them.

Awww man... I hear ya on that... I use to have several OG Star Wars action figures in the late 70's... We're talking Luke & Vader having the built in lightsabers on their arms and vehicles up the ying-yang (Falcon, Sand Speeder, 3-Story "interior" of the Deathstar with manual elevators... Of course we blew the fuck outta them the following 4th of July for shits & giggles... Stupid kids like me didn't appreciate the VALUE of what they would become today... Tisk tisk... But I digress...

Man the memories! I remember bugging my parents for an AT-AT. after the excitment wore off I filled the hull with M-80s and watch the thing go down just like in Empire Strikes Back.

Optimus Prime! Not from the movie, but if some programmer can do this on his own, I'm excited to see what Spielberg and Bay's boys pull off.

Prime

KJ and RocketX stole my thunder.

I knew this avatar would come in handy fast...

Aight... Teaser trailer for the movie is up... Ya must have Adobe's Flash Version 8 to view, FYI... Looked pretty interesting...

TRANSFORMERS THE MOVIE

- Air B

uhh... that was lame.

what a disappointment... my only guess is that since they are still doing principal shooting they have hardly done any post-production CGI work on the actual robots... still kind of lame though... I was kinda hoping for a large Autobot spaceship crashing into a prehistoric mountain with dinosaurs walking about... not some Mars rover getting jumped...

I wonder if that's really the one they were going to release on the 4th. Maybe it's a teaser for the teaser.

well considering it's only a teaser, perhaps none of what we saw is actually in the movie... just a promo...

The Comic Con show in San Diego has confirmed that Peter Cullen will be the voice of Optimus Prime once again.

Not only that, but the producer has confirmed that Optimus will remain a semi and that he is not a firetruck as it has been rumored...

Alright, the 3rd time is the charm!



If this don't work then I give up!

Red x's Paul!

Peter Cullen has an impressive resume.

Optimus Prime and others from the series
Voltron
KARR
Toonami

He should be a pop culture icon!

Oh, the irony:
