"My father was the wheel, the first wheel! Do you know what he transformed into? NOTHING!!! BUT HE DID IT WITH HONOR!!" Jetfire was awesome in the movie. And his figure looks pretty cool too.

Paul! I can't believe how old school this video is! A coworker just simply gave me this figure back around Christmas. It was his sons who just didn't want it anymore. It was missing 6 pieces. The gun, missile, JTFR swivel panels, the rear detachable shield and landing gear/cane. The parts were on ebay $30 each. It just made sense to find a complete one. I found one in a trade and took all the pieces off and cleaned them. Put everything on the one my coworker gave me. It looks amazing! So happy to have this awesome figure along with Leader Prime and Megatron from ROTF.
Mine is custom and it’s LEGIT. Well. I didn’t customise it a no longer existing YT channel Greatwhite217 did and it came in the mail today at around 10:00am on the Tuesday 4th August 2020
Excellent Review Paul! I think I can see why mine in jet mode has the front middle part not clipping in flush I think I didn't have it bent exactly like I thought it was suppose to be and I tried many ways But I still love the figure especially for the combined mode :)
i’m getting this figure for christmas, the thing is i have the Dotm leader class Ironhide, so he’ll be bigger than jetfire which will not make sense at all for me, does anyone know how to make him look taller? even a little bit taller
Hi guys I was just wondering if anyone knows how I could either buy or 3D print the left side panel that attaches to on top of jetfires head to cover it. I can only find the right piece please someone help
yes it is. Just like the movie suggest, the SR-71 is in the Smithsonian Air & Space museum in Chantilly, Virginia. It's pretty sweet up close. They also have the Concord and the Space Shuttle Enterprise. Not to be mistaken for the Air & Space museum in D.C.
My Wal-Mart had this on clearance for $22! Im glad I waited til now to get him, but I like his robot mode much better than I thought I would from how he looked in the package... My dad was a mechanic on the SR-71 with this tail number in Okanowa so been wanting this figure for a loooong time.
Paul, you know those pieces that "come off all the time" that say JTFR, and his clip on gun piece? Do you know where I could get just those parts? Mine are gone.
The pieces 'open to interpretation' that you tuck by the legs, actually clip together. You can see the knob on one side that fits into the other. They don't just get tucked into anywhere...
Sue Verschuur they clip together in jet mode and robot mode? Tell me a little more bcuz they are annoying. It feels like I'm not transforming him properly
thanks bro i couldn't transform mine but beacause of the little thing u damaged off on the JTFR pannel on the head i damaged mine off and now i can get past this stage! 😀
are you going to the walmart by the food store that used to be kroger? because that walmart had optimus on friday but it had no jetfires and a bunch of megatrons
@optibotimus your right those dangly pieces do go beside his legs in jet mode. But idk if it's on purpose or not but if u look at him from the front those pieces look like the flaps from the landing gear on the actual blackbird.
The tiny little print says: warning this aircraft contains a seat containing an explosive cahrge see maintinance (or however you spell it) manual before and then there is something I can't read but it looks like boarding
Help! My Jetfire (exactly like yours in scale) can't turn into a plane! It's as if there was a mistake in design or manufacturing. So now I display it in the robot mode only... without ever having finished the plane mode. Somehow the top of the front fuselage can't combine... I think I'm pretty patient... but somehow the instructions aren't so clear for Jetfire. Is it because it is so big? So many parts? Am I the only one with this problem? Please help. Thanks.
Paul! This video is so old! A coworker gave me this figure at work today for free. I knew it was missing the landing gear/cane... watched your vid to help me transform it. It's missing the rear end of the jet alt mode and the pieces that cover the head in alt mode. I don't know what to do. It may not be worth the hassle of finding the parts. Do you still have yours??
If you watch the movie closely, the front of the plane is his head, not his arms. The cockpit sits on the top of his head, like a helmet. Just wanted to point that out.
I love jets, and me and my family went to that air and space museum when i was like 7 or 8. it was the year transformers 2 ROTF came out and they had all the actors their and it was awesome seeing the SR-71 blackbird
look at his knee's the furthest screw towards the engine lookn thing ... if u tighen it that ratchet joint becomes 2 times as strong or more i did it and it surprised me how much stronger they were
who else thinks we need an optimus prime figure capatable for both the dark of the moon jet pack and the jetfire upgrade? with all the weapons he weilds in the movies whos with me?
i went to the air and space museum today and saw this sr-71 and it is cool and they have a display for jet fire with actual transformers revenge of the fallen prop in the case no joke!
@optibotimus me too i think the gun is awesome but for the rest buster prime doesnt do much for me im kinda looking for a prime that sitts nicely between i think im gonna get jetwing prime
@StarShootex bro, its not a box, its like an illusion, it looks like a box but its like a corner, where he put some kind of board on the side and bottom of the desk, idunno.
good review mate!! I just bought him today to complete my collection! AND IM 31 !! lol Transformers are up there with Star Wars and Start Trek to some collectors! Some people cant understand that, it must be an age thing... guys in thier 30s grew up with original toons like M.A.S.K, Centurions, Transformers, Action Force/Gi Joe,The TMNTs, He-Man.. GOD!! i could go on all night! If you cant appreciate something amazing like this then why even bother watching these reviews? Piss Off!
I think the landing gear are supposed to be that way, he is old, very old, and breaking down, and in the movie when he changed i swear he fell down once.
dude your like the best reviewer but doo you think leader optimus is better than voyager starscream n iron hide because i thinking of buying optimus or the othere two
"My father was the wheel, the first wheel! Do you know what he transformed into? NOTHING!!! BUT HE DID IT WITH HONOR!!"
Jetfire was awesome in the movie. And his figure looks pretty cool too.
6:02 omg it's just like in the movie parts popping off XD
I saw the Blackbird/Jetfire at the Castle Air Museum and at Space Museum in my Spruce Goose trip to Orgren.
SR-71 Blackbird is my most favorite aircraft so far!:)
hey there pennywise lol
RaFaEl DuRaNo yeah they’re absolutely huge and are over 30 meters long bigger than the biggest animal on our planet 🌎😄😄😄😄😎😎😎😎😊👍🏻!!!
Untill Mig 31 arrives.
Same. timeless design
I swear I remember as a kid I would always pull jet fire button because I just loved hearing his dialogue

MY CHILDHOOD

Nice review definetly informative. Its regretable that we only see him flying in jet mode for 2 seconds in the movie.
I had over 20 action figures of ROTF and this was the only one I was never able to transform, Idk it was just too difficult to do so
i’m getting this figure for christmas, the thing is i have the Dotm leader class Ironhide, so he’ll be bigger than jetfire which will not make sense at all for me, does anyone know how to make him look taller? even a little bit taller

can't wait till my jetfire gets here

soo glad you got this fig. been wating for this for a while.
are you going to the walmart by the food store that used to be kroger? because that walmart had optimus on friday but it had no jetfires and a bunch of megatrons
hello optibotimus, are u going to do a review of the smaller figure of jetfire?
because im sorta thinkin of geting it but i dont know if i should.
THANKS FOR THE REVIEW OF JETFIRE, HE IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE DECEPTICON/AUTOBOT TRANSFOMERS OF ALL TIME!!!!!!!!!!!
@optibotimus your right those dangly pieces do go beside his legs in jet mode. But idk if it's on purpose or not but if u look at him from the front those pieces look like the flaps from the landing gear on the actual blackbird.
WHOS WATCHING FROM THE FUTURE😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜
I'm from the year 2018
Me
I saw the studio series jetfire and just searched up original jetfire
@@victorgu5725
This one is wayyyyy better.
@@subswithnovidschallenge-ue2rr this one looks weird
@optibotimus
I visited the Smithsonion and they had Jetfire there and a small TFdisplay.
The tiny little print says:
warning this aircraft contains a seat containing an explosive cahrge see maintinance (or however you spell it) manual before and then there is something I can't read but it looks like boarding
This figure is very rare in the Netherlands. I bought this jetfire a few months ago after four years of searching and i’m soooo happy with it.
well, but i'm gonna buy one of 'em much later altough you say jettfire's rare wich one do you think is overall best figure?
How many inches long is he in alt mode ?
Help! My Jetfire (exactly like yours in scale) can't turn into a plane! It's as if there was a mistake in design or manufacturing. So now I display it in the robot mode only... without ever having finished the plane mode. Somehow the top of the front fuselage can't combine...
I think I'm pretty patient... but somehow the instructions aren't so clear for Jetfire. Is it because it is so big? So many parts?
Am I the only one with this problem? Please help. Thanks.
Would you recommend leader class jetfire or leader class sentinel prime?
Paul! This video is so old! A coworker gave me this figure at work today for free. I knew it was missing the landing gear/cane... watched your vid to help me transform it. It's missing the rear end of the jet alt mode and the pieces that cover the head in alt mode. I don't know what to do. It may not be worth the hassle of finding the parts. Do you still have yours??
I'm gonna buy both optimus prime and jettfire but wich one should i get first?
Iv got Jetfire for Christmas.
Hes Wrapped up under the Xmas Tree Downstairs. ^^
6 More days...Cant wait!
I live in Virginia and have been to the museum the had a glass container with a jet fire figure in a glass box
If you watch the movie closely, the front of the plane is his head, not his arms. The cockpit sits on the top of his head, like a helmet. Just wanted to point that out.
jetfire was my favorite character
i cant wait to get this
I'll be getting Jetfire for my Birthday
Lucky
Not to mention blackbird is also a Beatles song
I made a Lego rotf jetfire it's pretty cool to look at I made it have a little bit detail
I have no ideea how to transform it back into jet,mine well all toys come in robot mode,so I have no ideea even with the video it's still confusing...
I love jets, and me and my family went to that air and space museum when i was like 7 or 8. it was the year transformers 2 ROTF came out and they had all the actors their and it was awesome seeing the SR-71 blackbird
How are you lycky your probably a millionaire if your that lucky
I want one of those where did you find her?.........
how hard is the transformation from robot to vehicle mode?
is it as hard as optimus prime's?
:P
Are you to review jet fire and Optimus combination
It's been in service for 24 yrs, that's impressive
look at his knee's the furthest screw towards the engine lookn thing ... if u tighen it that ratchet joint becomes 2 times as strong or more
i did it and it surprised me how much stronger they were
Does the new 20th anniversary jetfire fit on rotf optimus?
is optimus out off skall whith like deluxe n voyager in both modes or is he perfect size
yea it's still there
Do you still hold this opinion? I quite like him. I'd love to go back in time and get him cheap but I'm gonna have to get the movie best one
who else thinks we need an optimus prime figure capatable for both the dark of the moon jet pack and the jetfire upgrade? with all the weapons he weilds in the movies whos with me?
Trilby Murfin the problem with this is the designs for rotf and dotm are different, and it would be really expensive
Trilby Murfin try the dotm jetwing optimus prime, I'm currently developing pack w/ really awesome prime w/ accessories.
The studio series has one but its one horrible toy
4:17 you might say he is the actual fallen! 😨😧
how much does it cost are you going to sale it?
how did u get you get jetfire, he's so hard to found
the cool part is that one of the ones he worked on specifically, had Jetfire's tail number... likely the same plane used in the film
optibotimus thes small angled panels that u said u busted the peg off i just detach them and conect them then snap them back on the ball joint
i went to the air and space museum today and saw this sr-71 and it is cool
and they have a display for jet fire with actual transformers revenge of the fallen
prop in the case no joke!
is the leader class the only jetfire you can get? if not can someone name all the classes you can get him in
When is he coming out?
So how does the Studio Series toy 10 years later compare to it?
I doesn't lmao. In my opinion it's way to skinny and has a huge head it just doesn't compare.
hey how much would this one cost with all the accesories but without the box and manual?
benjamin v maybe $30 to $40 US dollars, I got him on eBay complete for only $25!
one of the blips for the location of the seekers was right on my town in illinois, that was cool
i was at the Smithsonian and saw this thing b4, it even became "Jetfire", it is a awesome ship.
the part under lt col brawley says warning this aircraftcontains a seat that contains an explosive chargesee matinence manual before removing
I am so happy that they used my state to film jet fire and the sybols
just got my jetfire yesterday got him at target. my walmart doesn't seam to carry the good figures.
@optibotimus me too i think the gun is awesome but for the rest buster prime doesnt do much for me im kinda looking for a prime that sitts nicely between i think im gonna get jetwing prime
if you custom paint the kibble to very black
it not as noticable.
I love how they put the skunk there referring to the Lockheed Martin Skunkworks
@optibotimus lol r u gettin scorponok?
whats the name of that song that was by boston on this video
can u combined him with optimus even if u get them sepritly??
I love the leader class figures, but the joints are _so freaking loud!_
I'm desperate for this guy he's not out in Miami till October but i want him now so i got him online and I can't wait till he arrives WOOHOO!!!
the blackbird was my fav plane thats why im gonna buy him how much is he
i got a black model,why is does this have blue?i heard it was sci-fi reskin
Sr 71 only at black color
@StarShootex bro, its not a box, its like an illusion, it looks like a box but its like a corner, where he put some kind of board on the side and bottom of the desk, idunno.
optibot let me no if the tightenin of the screw works ok?
good review mate!!
I just bought him today to complete my collection! AND IM 31 !! lol
Transformers are up there with Star Wars and Start Trek to some collectors!
Some people cant understand that, it must be an age thing... guys in thier 30s grew up with original toons like M.A.S.K, Centurions, Transformers, Action Force/Gi Joe,The TMNTs, He-Man.. GOD!! i could go on all night!
If you cant appreciate something amazing like this then why even bother watching these reviews? Piss Off!
Jetfire is awesome; he is one of my favorite transformers
the skunk on the uprights is representing the Lockheed skunk works where the blackbird was created
lol when you said Enterprise I just went "wait what?" lol I really wish we built big ass starships already. Another great review Optibotimus :)
@Ms9piece its like the all the robot parts u can see when in its vehicle mode like u can see the whole robot body in jetfires vehicle mode
I think the landing gear are supposed to be that way, he is old, very old, and breaking down, and in the movie when he changed i swear he fell down once.
Not a problem. The more you know the better.
He was an decepticon turned autobot in most continuities, like G1 and the movie i believe.
What did the Bayformers do to Jetfire?
did this guy just come out in actual stores like target?
its also in the guiness book of world records for its speed or somfin
Love the skunk. The branch of the firm that designed the sr 71 and other steathy planes was nicknamed the skunk works
just a bit of trivia for ya...
omg in night at the museum 2, it would be awesome to see jetfire in the movie since his jet is kept in the space or plane exibit
I have a question is of takara or hasbro
hey can you show how jetfire optimus prime go together
paul when you going to upload the convination of this guy
dude your like the best reviewer but doo you think leader optimus is better than voyager starscream n iron hide because i thinking of buying optimus or the othere two
