If there is a large, flying [[Autobot]] toy that&#039;s not an [[Aerialbot (G1)|Aerialbot]], it&#039;s probably one of &#039;&#039;&#039;Jetfire&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&#039;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;s.&lt;br /&gt;

{{toydesigner|[[Shōji Kawamori]] ([[Takatoku Toys]])|[[Mark Watts]] (packaging artist)}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Released in the second year of the [[Hasbro]] &#039;&#039;[[The Transformers (toyline)|Transformers]]&#039;&#039; toyline, Jetfire is a [[redeco]] of the [[Takatoku Toys]] &#039;&#039;Macross&#039;&#039; VF-1S Super Valkyrie. Jetfire features three modes: robot, jet, and an &amp;quot;alternate transformation&amp;quot; (called the &amp;quot;Gerwalk&amp;quot; form in &#039;&#039;Macross&#039;&#039;, and the &amp;quot;Guardian&amp;quot; form in &#039;&#039;Robotech&#039;&#039;) that deploys his arms and legs in [[alternate mode|jet mode]]. Additionally, Jetfire comes with several red pieces of armor and a rocket booster backpack that can snap onto his arms, legs, and back in any mode. He has noticeably more articulation than the other &#039;&#039;Transformers&#039;&#039; in the line at the time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: The shoulder assembly where the jet mode folds in half for [[robot mode]] is one of the more commonly broken parts in the early &#039;&#039;Transformers&#039;&#039; toy line. Additionally, the thin, rigid plastic used on the armor pieces puts their attachment clips at high risk of breaking off; anyone actually transforming a Jetfire in this day and age would be better off &#039;&#039;gently&#039;&#039; pulling the peg-and-socket-construction armor pieces apart and then reuniting them around his arms and legs without relying on the clips. And finally, the small black clip-piece that attaches Jetfire&#039;s rifle to his jet mode is possibly one of the most commonly missing accessories on secondhand Jetfires, if not secondhand Transformers all around. The fact that the instructions don&#039;t tell you what to do with it doesn&#039;t help. The piece is used to hold Jetfire&#039;s rifle via the clip attached to the arm, as well as under the jetmode as a belly gun. It is very difficult to find a complete Jetfire toy, let alone an undamaged one. The figure&#039;s white coloration is also heavily succeptible to [[photodegradation|yellowing]], even if properly stored.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: [[Variant|Early specimens]] of Jetfire featured the &#039;&#039;Macross&#039;&#039; [[United Nations|U.N.]] Spacy logo on the wings; the very earliest had this painted on, while a mid-stage release used a [[sticker]]. These &amp;quot;Macross&amp;quot; Jetfires also have an extra black stripe across the jet canopy, and the robot head guns have more complex sculpting with thinner plastic at their bases.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: For what should be &#039;&#039;screamingly obvious reasons&#039;&#039;, Jetfire was not released in the [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] &#039;&#039;[[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers (toyline)|Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers]]&#039;&#039; toyline.&lt;br /&gt;

{{toydesigner|[[Takio Ejima]] (TakaraTomy), [[Masakatsu Saito]] (concept artist)}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Jetfire was released in the Hasbro &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]&#039;&#039; line as part of the second [[wave]] of [[Cyberjet]]s. He is a redeco of the Decepticon [[Hooligan (G2)#Toys|Hooligan]], transforming into a proposed swing-wing naval variant of the F-22 Raptor. He is armed with a pressure-launched missile fired from his right arm, which also forms a weapon in fighter mode. He can also store his extra missile on his forearm/jet undercarriage via simple friction-tabs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: This toy was released in the Takara &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)#Takara G-2 line|G-2]]&#039;&#039; line, missing the factory-applied stickers on his vertical stabilizers, but otherwise identical to the Hasbro toy. It also came with an [[:File:Jetfire-JG2decal.jpg|extra decal sheet]] featuring white tiger markings, extra &#039;&#039;Generation 2&#039;&#039; Autobot symbols, and &amp;quot;battle damage&amp;quot; markings.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Apparently, the decision to market the redecos as separate characters was a last-minute change of plans that was only put into use in America and Japan; in Europe, Hasbro supposedly stuck to the original idea for said assortment (here named &amp;quot;Mini-Jets&amp;quot;), with the redecos being sold as [[variant#Running changes|running change color variants]] of their wave 1 mold-mates instead, in unchanged packaging featuring [[package art]] in the original deco and the original character&#039;s name. Thus, Hooligan was available in Jetfire&#039;s colors but still marketed as Hooligan himself. This practice is only confirmed for the versions available in multilingual French/Dutch/German packaging; thus far, no specimens in English/Spanish/Portuguese packaging or in Italian [[GiG]] packaging have surfaced. This would also explain why the &amp;quot;Jetfire&amp;quot; release of the figure has Decepticon [[Insignia|faction symbol]] stickers, despite being released as an Autobot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: This sculpt was also used to make &#039;&#039;[[Robotmasters (franchise)|Robotmasters]]&#039;&#039; [[R-Blade#Toys|R-Blade]], &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]&#039;&#039; [[Wind Sheer (Universe)#Toys|Wind Sheer]], and [[BotCon 2005]] [[Ricochet (Timelines)#Toys|Ricochet]]. R-Blade&#039;s expanded bio in the [[The Complete Transformers Encyclopedia: All About Robotmasters|&#039;&#039;Robotmasters&#039;&#039; guidebook]] do refer to Jetfire as the leader of the Autobot Cyberjets, even though no mention of this is made in Jetfire&#039;s &#039;&#039;Generation 2&#039;&#039; bio, in the U.S. &#039;&#039;or&#039;&#039; Japan.&lt;br /&gt;

:&#039;&#039;[[Titanium Series]]&#039;&#039; Jetfire is based on [[Don Figueroa]]&#039;s design as seen in [[Dreamwave Productions|Dreamwave]]&#039;s &#039;&#039;The War Within&#039;&#039; miniseries, which in turn was based on Figueroa&#039;s [[Customizing|scratch-build custom]] Transformer, [http://www.tfarchive.com/fandom/kitbashes/Don_Figueroa/Kitbash_Retrospective/?dgallery_show=./strikefire_2.jpg Strikefire]. He transforms into a Cybertronic fighter plane with armor add-ons.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As with all &#039;&#039;Titanium Series&#039;&#039; figures, Jetfire&#039;s toy is constructed of both die-cast metal and molded plastic, and it comes with a plastic display stand featuring his name and his faction logo. In jet mode, landing gear can be deployed from underneath the fuselage and both legs. In robot mode, the two wing cannons can be removed to be held by the robot either separately or combined together into a single weapon.&lt;br /&gt;

{{toydesigner|[[Eric Siebenaler]] (Hasbro), [[Takashi Kunihiro]] (TakaraTomy)|[[Masakatsu Saito]] (concept artist)}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]&#039;&#039; Jetfire&#039;s design is an amalgam of the original cartoon/comic model for Jetfire/Skyfire and the original toy. It not only features removable armor like the original toy, but the toy-inspired head can be removed like a helmet to reveal a cartoon/comic-inspired head. The Cybertronic swing-winged fighter jet mode is primarily based on the {{w|F-14 Tomcat}} (itself the inspiration for the &#039;&#039;Macross&#039;&#039; {{w|VF-1 Valkyrie}} design), but with various visual elements taken from Skyfire&#039;s [[character model]], most notably the squared-off nosecone. The toy&#039;s add-on booster packs have flip-out reveal cannons, and it also features arm-mounted spring-loaded missile launchers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:An unexpected level of detail can be found on the black non-firing rifle; when it is assembled, the halves of the gun&#039;s &amp;quot;sight&amp;quot; come together in a way that would be functional on a full-size weapon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The toy&#039;s design was first featured on the solicited cover to [[IDW Publishing|IDW]] &#039;&#039;[[The Transformers: Stormbringer|Stormbringer]]&#039;&#039; #1. Contrary to popular belief, it was not designed by [[Don Figueroa]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:A &amp;quot;ghost&amp;quot; [[redeco]] of this toy, with black plastic and silvery electric paint deco, was shown by [[Hasbro]] in a news broadcast about their attempts to cheer up a Rhode Island orphan. Sadly, this version was never released.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:This mold was [[retool]]ed to make the [[BotCon 2007]] version of [[Dreadwind (G1)#Timelines|Dreadwind]], and [[redeco]]ed to make the &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]&#039;&#039; version of [[Tread Bolt#Universe (2008)|Tread Bolt]].&lt;br /&gt;

: &#039;&#039;[[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (toyline)|Henkei! Henkei!]]&#039;&#039; Skyfire is a redeco of &#039;&#039;Classics&#039;&#039; Voyager Class Jetfire. The primary changes to his deco are mainly for better resemblance to Skyfire&#039;s Generation 1 cartoon model&#039;s appearance (in particular painting most of the canopy to make it appear smaller), rather than the Jetfire/&#039;&#039;Macross&#039;&#039; design. Of amusement is the fact the fighter&#039;s airbrake has been painted blue to be a faux secondary canopy. As with all &#039;&#039;Henkei&#039;&#039; toys, he lacks the heat-sensitive rubsign seen on the &#039;&#039;Classics&#039;&#039; release, but instead has some [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metallized]] parts (his jetpack&#039;s exhaust nozzles).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: It also includes a [[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (pack-in manga)|mini-manga]] detailing the events that lead to Skyfire&#039;s appearance in the &#039;&#039;Henkei! Henkei!&#039;&#039; universe (mini-manga universe, that is).&lt;br /&gt;

: Part of the &#039;&#039;[[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (toyline)#Gentei! Gentei!|Gentei! Gentei!]]&#039;&#039; subline of &#039;&#039;Henkei!&#039;&#039;, &amp;quot;Dark Skyfire&amp;quot; is a [[TakaraTomy Mall|Toy Hobby Market]]-[[exclusive]] [[black redeco]] and [[retool]] of &#039;&#039;Classics&#039;&#039; Voyager Class Jetfire. The primary changes to his deco are mainly for making him, uh, darker. Specifically, he&#039;s cast in glossy black and purple plastic, with painted purple details and new thin white stripes on his wings. The tips of his backpack cannons have been significantly remolded to make the barrels and stalks on which they are mounted a single, newly-jointed piece, with the result being that the cannons&#039; bodies stick out ever so slightly from their housing. This change is likely to make the barrels more durable under the constant spring-loaded strain of being hidden, as well as allow one to pivot and deploy the cannons without sliding back the panels that are keeping them hidden, due to the fact that deploying the cannons this way with the previous tooling often resulted in the (detachable) tips of the cannons to pop out and send them flying. As with all &#039;&#039;Henkei&#039;&#039; toys, he lacks the heat-sensitive rubsign seen on the &#039;&#039;Classics&#039;&#039; release, but instead has some vacuum-metallized parts (his jetpack&#039;s exhaust nozzles).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: The extent of Dark Skyfire&#039;s &#039;Dark&#039; originally varied from image to image: early pre-production mockup images showed a dark matte grey similar to e-Hobby [[Astrotrain (G1)/toys#Collector.27s_Edition|Astrotrain]], whilst later images appeared gloss black with high-contrast silver details, leading to speculation that this redeco is the previously unreleased &#039;ghost&#039; &#039;&#039;Classics&#039;&#039; Jetfire. Some possible hints of this remain, such as the Hasbro &#039;&#039;Classics&#039;&#039;-styled open cockpit instead of &#039;&#039;Henkei&#039;s &#039;&#039;half-painted version, as well as some entirely new paint operations, such as the added stripes on the sides of the intakes just behind his shoulders.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Pre-orders for Dark Skyfire opened up on [[November 12]]th and closed on [[December 11]]th [[2009]], with the toys finally shipping in March of 2010.&lt;br /&gt;

Additionally his box (in monochrome blue) features a lot of English text including the Hasbro market name and [[bio]], even though the box is otherwise following the original &#039;&#039;Henkei!

:Part of the third wave of &#039;&#039;[[Bot Shots (toyline)|Bot Shots]]&#039;&#039;, Jetfire is a teeny little jet with a spring-loaded automatic transformation to robot mode triggered when his nosecone is pressed.

&lt;br /&gt;
:&#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]] [[Thrilling 30]]&#039;&#039; Jetfire&#039;s design is an amalgam of the original cartoon/comic model for Jetfire/Skyfire and the original toy. It features removable armor like the original toy, but the toy-inspired head can be removed like a mask to reveal a more proportioned cartoon/comic-inspired head. The jet mode is again based on a navalized {{w|F-22 Raptor}} with {{w|F-14 Tomcat}}-like variable geometry wings (The F-14 itself being the inspiration for the &#039;&#039;Macross&#039;&#039; {{w|VF-1 Valkyrie}} design), but with a faux cockpit reminiscent of his Skyfire&#039;s [[character model]] underneath the jet&#039;s fuselage, most notably the faux squared-off nosecone in his robot mode. The toy&#039;s add-on booster pack which can be rotated 360 degrees, arm and leg mounted cannons are [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metallized]] bright metallic red. Jetfire also carries a [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metallized]] spring-loaded &amp;quot;photon&amp;quot; missile launcher/rifle. All five weapons can combine into a larger weapon, and the removable face armor can be stowed by plugging into the rifle while both arm cannons can also be attached to the peg hole located on both sides of his Turbo Thruster pack. This toy first appeared as Jetfire&#039;s new body in the &amp;quot;[[Dawn of the Autobots]]&amp;quot; arc of &#039;&#039;[[The Transformers: Robots in Disguise]]&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:All versions of this mold have a design flaw in the strut that connects the pelvis to the chest. The very small, very thin plastic on either side of where the strut pins in between the legs has a tendency to eventually break, especially after repeated transformations. The primary cause appears to be when the friction pin starts to work its way into both the inner and outer pieces. Checking the clearance between the pieces and the position of the pin can help prevent untimely damage. Some units also have an &#039;&#039;insanely&#039;&#039; tight pin hole here, where it requires less force to &#039;&#039;ratchet the pieces apart&#039;&#039; than to rotate properly. Removing the pin and opening the hole on the inner piece of the joint can also lengthen the effective lifespan of the figure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:This mold was also retooled into &#039;&#039;Generations [[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]&#039;&#039; [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#CWLeader|Thundercracker]], [[Starscream (G1)/toys#CWLeader|Starscream]], and [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#CWLeader|Skywarp]].&lt;br /&gt;

The toy was released as a contest prize in AEON Malaysia, which ran from 15 September to 15 October 2014.

Hilariously, while the actual answer is Jet, there are 3 additional answers: &#039;&#039;Yacht&#039;&#039;, &#039;&#039;Bus&#039;&#039;, and &#039;&#039;Motorcycle&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;

He also comes with 2 buildable guns, which are formed from his jet tail fins and pistols.

Unlike the base mold, his wings can swing in and out like his original G1 figure. However, there are two pegs on each wing that are used to lock them in position (either full sweep or high-maneuverability), and a lack of clearance requires the wing assembly to be opened to move them in addition to unpegging them from the back of the arms.

:Released as part of a [[San Diego Comic-Con#2017|San Diego Comic-Con 2017]] exclusive set, this Jetfire is basically a re-release of the &#039;&#039;Legends&#039;&#039; figure. He was packed with several other [[Hasbro Universe]] action figures: [[Matt Trakker]] of &#039;&#039;[[M.A.S.K.]]&#039;&#039;, [[Ian Noble|Action Man]], [[Leoric]] of &#039;&#039;[[Visionaries]]&#039;&#039;, [[Roadblock (G.I.

&lt;br /&gt;
:This Jetfire uses a thicker tab that was previously used for the Seeker retools, causing a slight gap in the jet mode.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:The first of the large &amp;quot;Commander Class&amp;quot; toys, this iteration of Jetfire is based &#039;&#039;heavily&#039;&#039; on his 1984 [[Jetfire (G1)#Generation 1 cartoon continuity|cartoon]] and [[Jetfire (G1)#Marvel Comics continuity|comic]] [[character model]], transforming into a Cybertronian superjet with a massive, brick-like top-mounted &amp;quot;Turbo Thruster Booster Pack&amp;quot;. He is one of the few toys in the &#039;&#039;Siege&#039;&#039; line &#039;&#039;not&#039;&#039; sporting battle damage paint applications, though he does have a very light &#039;reentry fade&#039; on his lower legs and nosecone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In robot mode, the faction symbol on his chest can flip around to be either Autobot or Decepticon, a reference to the original &#039;&#039;[[The Transformers (cartoon)|The Transformers]]&#039;&#039; cartoon episode &amp;quot;[[Fire in the Sky]]&amp;quot; and to recreate his faction swap in the [[Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy (cartoon)|&#039;&#039;Siege&#039;&#039;]] cartoon (alternately, you can pretend he&#039;s performing the [[Rite of the Autobrand]] as seen in the original Marvel comic). The [[5 mm post]]-hole rings in his hands are designed to recess into his palms when his fingers are extended forward so he looks less awkward in an open-handed pose. Adding the Skyshield Aerial Armor and Skyshield Battle Mask gives his robot mode a &#039;&#039;slightly&#039;&#039; more original-toy appearance. Some copies may have difficulty attaching his chest armor properly due to the small flip-out panels not lining up perfectly: pulling the chest panels open and then putting them back once the armor is attached can help, or it can be attached by a single panel instead of both. While Jetfire does have ankle tilts, there are small but fairly strong clips that lock them in, so a bit of force may be required to unlock them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In jet mode, along with deployable landing gear with rolling wheels, he features four pop-out handles on his underside that allow other &#039;&#039;Siege&#039;&#039; figures (or any toy or accessory with a 5 mm grip) to hang underneath him, letting him air-drop his comrades into battle. He can also carry up to three [[Titan Master#Toys|Titan Master]]s or [[Prime Master#Toys|Prime Master]]s in jet mode: removing the filler computer core inside his cockpit (by folding down the nosecone) reveals space for one Master, while the back end of the Turbo Thruster Booster Pack lifts up to reveal space for two more Masters. Oddly, this feature is not shown in his instructions. The core also has a 5 mm hole in it so um... there&#039;s that. There is a 5 mm hexagonal port on his underside that appears to be for heavier-duty flight stands, since it is recessed too far to peg in any of his own weapons. Some transformation joints on his wings can also simulate working air flaps. During development, the jet was originally designed as a different &amp;quot;Cybetronian&amp;quot; jet akin to the rest of &#039;&#039;Siege&#039;&#039;, but Shogo Hasui pushed for it to more closely match his cartoon appearance instead, just like the robot mode.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Gen2020&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In either mode, his many many [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]] weapons can be mounted on him in a variety of ways. His two &amp;quot;JF-25 HS Photon Missile Sky Launcher&amp;quot; rifles can be combined into a single double-barreled gun vaguely similar to the original animation model&#039;s double-barreled cannon. In this configuration, they form the core of a massive pile of weapons and armor that goes on top of his jet mode (as if he wasn&#039;t anti-aerodynamic &#039;&#039;enough&#039;&#039;). In &#039;&#039;another&#039;&#039; undocumented feature, his &amp;quot;JF-15 HP Jetboost Particle Beam Cannons&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;SF-M2 Radiograph Booster&amp;quot; double-cannons are two-part weapons that can be pulled apart for even more versatility. He also has a large number of 3 mm &amp;quot;blast effect&amp;quot; hardpoints all over his body and on the tips of his weapons. His two multi-part blast effects have 5 mm posts with 3 mm holes in the middle on each part, making them very versatile in simulating his jet thrusters or outgoing or incoming weapons fire. Jetfire was also intended to interact with the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System|Weaponizer]] [[Six-Gun#War for Cybertron: Siege|Sixgun]] in jet mode, though this was, &#039;&#039;once again&#039;&#039;, never advertised.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://twitter.com/tf__tf/status/1205868925067513857 Siege Jetfire and Sixgun combination] from &#039;&#039;[[Transformers Generations 2020]]&#039;&#039; book&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:For those curious, the computer core accessory appears to be a reference to the episode &amp;quot;[[Fire on the Mountain (episode)|Fire on the Mountain]]&amp;quot;, where a close-up of &#039;&#039;Skyfire&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&#039;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;s cockpit interior is shown as he is being defrosted by [[Wheeljack (G1)|Wheeljack]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fzq3C4hkfNE&amp;amp;t=373 &amp;quot;Fire on the Mountain&amp;quot; episode timestamp 6:13] - on [[Hasbro Pulse]]&#039;s official YouTube channel.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Unfortunately, Jetfire is among one of a long list of figures to suffer from [[photodegradation]] in his [[unpaintable plastic]] parts, as a result of unknown causes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Bizarrely, many [[Walmart]] stores in the US put him on instant clearance, causing him to ring up at $40 rather than the actual $80 he&#039;s supposed to cost. This made some people very happy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:This figure saw reissues in late-2022 and mid-2024 and was also redecoed into &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)#Shattered Glass Collection|Shattered Glass Collection]]&#039;&#039; [[Jetfire (SG)#Shattered_Glass_Collection|Jetfire]]. &lt;br /&gt;

Inspired by the Generation 1 cartoon in design, he transforms into a space jet.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Skyfire comes with a multitude of accessories. For vehicle mode, there is a display stand, and three small, articulated figurines (&amp;quot;Convoy&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;Meister&amp;quot;, and &amp;quot;Wheeljack&amp;quot;) that scale with the vehicle mode and can ride inside of it. Skyfire features several opening hatches for this purpose. As for robot mode, Skyfire comes with three robot faces, including one based on the original masked &#039;&#039;Macross&#039;&#039; design (no antennae though). He also has three interchangeable chest plates displaying an Autobot insignia, a Decepticon insignia, and one that is blank, to replicate the scene in &amp;quot;[[Fire in the Sky]]&amp;quot; where he removes his Decepticon badge and changes allegiances to the Autobots. Also inspired by that same episode, Skyfire&#039;s helmet opens up to reveal a brainwave monitor. Lastly, he has his iconic &amp;quot;Photon Missile Launcher&amp;quot;, which can be used in robot mode or clipped onto his vehicle mode.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:And yes, he is able to turn into a gerwalk mode. Awesome.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Confirmed in an interview seen in the 278th issue of &#039;&#039;[[Figure Ō]]&#039;&#039; magazine, Skyfire was officially revealed on [[June 2]], [[2022]]. In [[Japan]] this figure was [[exclusive]] to [[TakaraTomy Mall]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:On many specimens, the large strong springs inside Skyfire&#039;s ankles shove too firmly against the pins holding his heel extensions in place, preventing the feet from opening fully flat and thus interfering with some standing poses. &lt;br /&gt;

:On [[July 22]], [[2013]], Harmony Gold, owner of the rights to the &#039;&#039;Robotech&#039;&#039; franchise and U.S. claimant to the &#039;&#039;Macross&#039;&#039; rights, [https://web.archive.org/web/20131014085251/http://www.courthousenews.com/2013/07/23/Transformers.pdf filed a copyright infringement suit against Hasbro]. In the filing, Harmony Gold argued that the release somehow infringed upon the intellectual property of the Veritech, but noted that &amp;quot;damages are difficult to ascertain&amp;quot;. They demanded that Hasbro recall all Jetfires that had been sold, that all Jetfires (including the recalled ones) be either destroyed or handed over to Harmony Gold, and that Hasbro turn over all profits relating to the sales; this was to happen in addition to payment for all actual damages to Harmony Gold (despite Harmony Gold itself not knowing how much the actual damages were) and all punitive assessments assigned against Hasbro.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Subsequently, an order was filed on September 23rd, 2013, to [http://generalsjoes.com/2013/10/10/hasbro-and-harmony-gold-reportedly-settle-lawsuit-over-sdcc-exclusive-jetfire/ dismiss the case with prejudice], implying that Harmony Gold and Hasbro have reached a settlement. Although confirmation of a settlement, much less details thereof, has not been revealed, the fact that the case was dismissed &#039;&#039;with prejudice&#039;&#039; means that Harmony Gold cannot sue over the Jetfire issue again. By early October the set was made available on [[Hasbro Toy Shop]], where it quickly sold out.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
: One of the six headline figures from the fifth wave of Blokees&#039; Defender Version blindbox kits, this Jetfire is a 2.2-inch (5.5cm) figure, a few inches smaller than the Galaxy Version kits, but still articulated. In addition to the Photon Missile Launcher, Jetfire also had a double-sided head, featuring both his regular and battle masks, which could be displayed by swiveling them to the front. Like most of the larger Galaxy Version kits, Jetfire features a simple neck joint that is colored to match his optics, allowing it to be see-through from his head&#039;s eye holes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: This mold was also used to make the [[Jetfire (SG)#Blokees|Shattered Glass version of the character]] from the same entry.&lt;br /&gt;

:This kit of Jetfire is molded in his signature jet mode. He also features two interactive areas that other robot kit characters can use: an opening upper panel with two pegs for the feet, and a pair of pegs underneath the jet for plugging their hands onto, or mount onto the back of the robot mode kits as a very bulky jetpack. Additionally, Jetfire features a pair of ball-joint sockets and a ball-jointed lower undercarriage, which can be removed from those joints. These features may suggest the possibility of a &amp;quot;Gerwalk mode&amp;quot; using parts from the Jetfire robot kit.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
: The &amp;quot;Special Armor Type&amp;quot; version of the Jetfire kit is an alternate version of the regular figure, decked out in pearlescent and metallic paint, a few more paint details, and a Decepticon symbol representing his appearance as the leader of the Seekers in Netflix&#039;s &#039;&#039;War for Cybertron&#039;&#039; cartoon. He also comes with a launched missile effect that can attach to his back, as well as a right hand with an integrated Energy Sword based on the weapon he used in the show. Unlike the SG chase variant, this Jetfire has an even slimmer pull rate of 1 in every 144 boxes, or once per twelve cases.&lt;br /&gt;

*As mentioned above, unlike most of the early &#039;&#039;Transformers&#039;&#039; range, the Jetfire toy was designed by [[Takatoku Toys]], being a [[redeco]] (with minor retools to blunt the nosecone and add two tabs to keep the wings from their forward-most position) of their 1/55 [https://web.archive.org/web/20180120173238/http://1501bc.com:80/pretf/macross.html &#039;&#039;Macross&#039;&#039; VF-1S Super Valkyrie]. Naturally, because he was not designed by [[TakaraTomy|Takara]], Jetfire was not released in Japan, since the toy (or, at least, a dozen variations of it) was released by one of Takara&#039;s rival toy companies.&lt;br /&gt;
*Jetfire&#039;s [[#Generation 2|&#039;&#039;Generation 2&#039;&#039; colour scheme]] nearly inspired the &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]&#039;&#039; multi-pack incarnation of the Mini-Con [[Terradive (Armada)#Notes|Terradive]], but this did not come to fruition.&lt;br /&gt;
*Harmony Gold released a modern toy of the VF-1S Super Valkyrie recolored into the original color scheme of Generation 1 Jetfire in 2023 under the cheeky name of &amp;quot;God of Flame&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/kitzconcept-jetfire-god-of-flame-standard-and-shattered-glass.1246636/&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Is it deeply hypocritical that they would try - and fail - to frivolously slap suit Hasbro for their &#039;&#039;G.I. Joe&#039;&#039; Jetfire crossover and then use the very color scheme that Hasbro invented in one of their own toys in a pretty clear attempt to cut into their market? Absolutely. Is this surprising? No, because Harmony Gold [[Super Dimension Fortress Macross#Attempted interference by a terrible company|is an absolutely pathetic company that is universally despised by fans of the mecha genre]].&lt;br /&gt;

{{toydesigner|[[Shōji Kawamori]] ([[Takatoku Toys]])|[[Mark Watts]] (packaging artist)}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Released in the second year of the [[Hasbro]] &#039;&#039;[[The Transformers (toyline)|Transformers]]&#039;&#039; toyline, Jetfire is a [[redeco]] of the [[Takatoku Toys]] &#039;&#039;Macross&#039;&#039; VF-1S Super Valkyrie. Jetfire features three modes: robot, jet, and an &amp;quot;alternate transformation&amp;quot; (called the &amp;quot;Gerwalk&amp;quot; form in &#039;&#039;Macross&#039;&#039;, and the &amp;quot;Guardian&amp;quot; form in &#039;&#039;Robotech&#039;&#039;) that deploys his arms and legs in [[alternate mode|jet mode]]. Additionally, Jetfire comes with several red pieces of armor and a rocket booster backpack that can snap onto his arms, legs, and back in any mode. He has noticeably more articulation than the other &#039;&#039;Transformers&#039;&#039; in the line at the time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: The shoulder assembly where the jet mode folds in half for [[robot mode]] is one of the more commonly broken parts in the early &#039;&#039;Transformers&#039;&#039; toy line. Additionally, the thin, rigid plastic used on the armor pieces puts their attachment clips at high risk of breaking off; anyone actually transforming a Jetfire in this day and age would be better off &#039;&#039;gently&#039;&#039; pulling the peg-and-socket-construction armor pieces apart and then reuniting them around his arms and legs without relying on the clips. And finally, the small black clip-piece that attaches Jetfire&#039;s rifle to his jet mode is possibly one of the most commonly missing accessories on secondhand Jetfires, if not secondhand Transformers all around. The fact that the instructions don&#039;t tell you what to do with it doesn&#039;t help. The piece is used to hold Jetfire&#039;s rifle via the clip attached to the arm, as well as under the jetmode as a belly gun. It is very difficult to find a complete Jetfire toy, let alone an undamaged one. The figure&#039;s white coloration is also heavily succeptible to [[photodegradation|yellowing]], even if properly stored.&lt;br /&gt;

: [[Variant|Early specimens]] of Jetfire featured the &#039;&#039;Macross&#039;&#039; [[United Nations|U.N.]] Spacy logo on the wings; the very earliest had this painted on, while a mid-stage release used a [[sticker]]. These &amp;quot;Macross&amp;quot; Jetfires also have an extra black stripe across the jet canopy, and the robot head guns have more complex sculpting with thinner plastic at their bases.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
: Jetfire was released in the Hasbro &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]&#039;&#039; line as part of the second [[wave]] of [[Cyberjet]]s. He is a redeco of the Decepticon [[Hooligan (G2)#Toys|Hooligan]], transforming into a proposed swing-wing naval variant of the F-22 Raptor. He is armed with a pressure-launched missile fired from his right arm, which also forms a weapon in fighter mode. He can also store his extra missile on his forearm/jet undercarriage via simple friction-tabs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: This toy was released in the Takara &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)#Takara G-2 line|G-2]]&#039;&#039; line, missing the factory-applied stickers on his vertical stabilizers, but otherwise identical to the Hasbro toy. It also came with an [[:File:Jetfire-JG2decal.jpg|extra decal sheet]] featuring white tiger markings, extra &#039;&#039;Generation 2&#039;&#039; Autobot symbols, and &amp;quot;battle damage&amp;quot; markings.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Apparently, the decision to market the redecos as separate characters was a last-minute change of plans that was only put into use in America and Japan; in Europe, Hasbro supposedly stuck to the original idea for said assortment (here named &amp;quot;Mini-Jets&amp;quot;), with the redecos being sold as [[variant#Running changes|running change color variants]] of their wave 1 mold-mates instead, in unchanged packaging featuring [[package art]] in the original deco and the original character&#039;s name. Thus, Hooligan was available in Jetfire&#039;s colors but still marketed as Hooligan himself. This practice is only confirmed for the versions available in multilingual French/Dutch/German packaging; thus far, no specimens in English/Spanish/Portuguese packaging or in Italian [[GiG]] packaging have surfaced. This would also explain why the &amp;quot;Jetfire&amp;quot; release of the figure has Decepticon [[Insignia|faction symbol]] stickers, despite being released as an Autobot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: This sculpt was also used to make &#039;&#039;[[Robotmasters (franchise)|Robotmasters]]&#039;&#039; [[R-Blade#Toys|R-Blade]], &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]&#039;&#039; [[Wind Sheer (Universe)#Toys|Wind Sheer]], and [[BotCon 2005]] [[Ricochet (Timelines)#Toys|Ricochet]]. R-Blade&#039;s expanded bio in the [[The Complete Transformers Encyclopedia: All About Robotmasters|&#039;&#039;Robotmasters&#039;&#039; guidebook]] do refer to Jetfire as the leader of the Autobot Cyberjets, even though no mention of this is made in Jetfire&#039;s &#039;&#039;Generation 2&#039;&#039; bio, in the U.S. &#039;&#039;or&#039;&#039; Japan.&lt;br /&gt;

He transforms into a Cybertronic fighter plane with armor add-ons.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As with all &#039;&#039;Titanium Series&#039;&#039; figures, Jetfire&#039;s toy is constructed of both die-cast metal and molded plastic, and it comes with a plastic display stand featuring his name and his faction logo. In jet mode, landing gear can be deployed from underneath the fuselage and both legs. In robot mode, the two wing cannons can be removed to be held by the robot either separately or combined together into a single weapon.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:&#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]&#039;&#039; Jetfire&#039;s design is an amalgam of the original cartoon/comic model for Jetfire/Skyfire and the original toy. It not only features removable armor like the original toy, but the toy-inspired head can be removed like a helmet to reveal a cartoon/comic-inspired head. The Cybertronic swing-winged fighter jet mode is primarily based on the {{w|F-14 Tomcat}} (itself the inspiration for the &#039;&#039;Macross&#039;&#039; {{w|VF-1 Valkyrie}} design), but with various visual elements taken from Skyfire&#039;s [[character model]], most notably the squared-off nosecone. The toy&#039;s add-on booster packs have flip-out reveal cannons, and it also features arm-mounted spring-loaded missile launchers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:An unexpected level of detail can be found on the black non-firing rifle; when it is assembled, the halves of the gun&#039;s &amp;quot;sight&amp;quot; come together in a way that would be functional on a full-size weapon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The toy&#039;s design was first featured on the solicited cover to [[IDW Publishing|IDW]] &#039;&#039;[[The Transformers: Stormbringer|Stormbringer]]&#039;&#039; #1. Contrary to popular belief, it was not designed by [[Don Figueroa]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:A &amp;quot;ghost&amp;quot; [[redeco]] of this toy, with black plastic and silvery electric paint deco, was shown by [[Hasbro]] in a news broadcast about their attempts to cheer up a Rhode Island orphan. Sadly, this version was never released.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:This mold was [[retool]]ed to make the [[BotCon 2007]] version of [[Dreadwind (G1)#Timelines|Dreadwind]], and [[redeco]]ed to make the &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]&#039;&#039; version of [[Tread Bolt#Universe (2008)|Tread Bolt]].&lt;br /&gt;

The primary changes to his deco are mainly for better resemblance to Skyfire&#039;s Generation 1 cartoon model&#039;s appearance (in particular painting most of the canopy to make it appear smaller), rather than the Jetfire/&#039;&#039;Macross&#039;&#039; design. Of amusement is the fact the fighter&#039;s airbrake has been painted blue to be a faux secondary canopy. As with all &#039;&#039;Henkei&#039;&#039; toys, he lacks the heat-sensitive rubsign seen on the &#039;&#039;Classics&#039;&#039; release, but instead has some [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metallized]] parts (his jetpack&#039;s exhaust nozzles).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: It also includes a [[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (pack-in manga)|mini-manga]] detailing the events that lead to Skyfire&#039;s appearance in the &#039;&#039;Henkei! Henkei!&#039;&#039; universe (mini-manga universe, that is).&lt;br /&gt;

The primary changes to his deco are mainly for making him, uh, darker. Specifically, he&#039;s cast in glossy black and purple plastic, with painted purple details and new thin white stripes on his wings. The tips of his backpack cannons have been significantly remolded to make the barrels and stalks on which they are mounted a single, newly-jointed piece, with the result being that the cannons&#039; bodies stick out ever so slightly from their housing. This change is likely to make the barrels more durable under the constant spring-loaded strain of being hidden, as well as allow one to pivot and deploy the cannons without sliding back the panels that are keeping them hidden, due to the fact that deploying the cannons this way with the previous tooling often resulted in the (detachable) tips of the cannons to pop out and send them flying. As with all &#039;&#039;Henkei&#039;&#039; toys, he lacks the heat-sensitive rubsign seen on the &#039;&#039;Classics&#039;&#039; release, but instead has some vacuum-metallized parts (his jetpack&#039;s exhaust nozzles).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: The extent of Dark Skyfire&#039;s &#039;Dark&#039; originally varied from image to image: early pre-production mockup images showed a dark matte grey similar to e-Hobby [[Astrotrain (G1)/toys#Collector.27s_Edition|Astrotrain]], whilst later images appeared gloss black with high-contrast silver details, leading to speculation that this redeco is the previously unreleased &#039;ghost&#039; &#039;&#039;Classics&#039;&#039; Jetfire. Some possible hints of this remain, such as the Hasbro &#039;&#039;Classics&#039;&#039;-styled open cockpit instead of &#039;&#039;Henkei&#039;s &#039;&#039;half-painted version, as well as some entirely new paint operations, such as the added stripes on the sides of the intakes just behind his shoulders.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Pre-orders for Dark Skyfire opened up on [[November 12]]th and closed on [[December 11]]th [[2009]], with the toys finally shipping in March of 2010.&lt;br /&gt;

Additionally his box (in monochrome blue) features a lot of English text including the Hasbro market name and [[bio]], even though the box is otherwise following the original &#039;&#039;Henkei!

&lt;br /&gt;
:&#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]] [[Thrilling 30]]&#039;&#039; Jetfire&#039;s design is an amalgam of the original cartoon/comic model for Jetfire/Skyfire and the original toy. It features removable armor like the original toy, but the toy-inspired head can be removed like a mask to reveal a more proportioned cartoon/comic-inspired head. The jet mode is again based on a navalized {{w|F-22 Raptor}} with {{w|F-14 Tomcat}}-like variable geometry wings (The F-14 itself being the inspiration for the &#039;&#039;Macross&#039;&#039; {{w|VF-1 Valkyrie}} design), but with a faux cockpit reminiscent of his Skyfire&#039;s [[character model]] underneath the jet&#039;s fuselage, most notably the faux squared-off nosecone in his robot mode. The toy&#039;s add-on booster pack which can be rotated 360 degrees, arm and leg mounted cannons are [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metallized]] bright metallic red. Jetfire also carries a [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metallized]] spring-loaded &amp;quot;photon&amp;quot; missile launcher/rifle. All five weapons can combine into a larger weapon, and the removable face armor can be stowed by plugging into the rifle while both arm cannons can also be attached to the peg hole located on both sides of his Turbo Thruster pack. This toy first appeared as Jetfire&#039;s new body in the &amp;quot;[[Dawn of the Autobots]]&amp;quot; arc of &#039;&#039;[[The Transformers: Robots in Disguise]]&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:All versions of this mold have a design flaw in the strut that connects the pelvis to the chest. The very small, very thin plastic on either side of where the strut pins in between the legs has a tendency to eventually break, especially after repeated transformations. The primary cause appears to be when the friction pin starts to work its way into both the inner and outer pieces. Checking the clearance between the pieces and the position of the pin can help prevent untimely damage. Some units also have an &#039;&#039;insanely&#039;&#039; tight pin hole here, where it requires less force to &#039;&#039;ratchet the pieces apart&#039;&#039; than to rotate properly. Removing the pin and opening the hole on the inner piece of the joint can also lengthen the effective lifespan of the figure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:This mold was also retooled into &#039;&#039;Generations [[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]&#039;&#039; [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#CWLeader|Thundercracker]], [[Starscream (G1)/toys#CWLeader|Starscream]], and [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#CWLeader|Skywarp]].&lt;br /&gt;

:Limited to only 3 pieces, Silver Jetfire is a redeco of the Leader Class toy above, featuring silver paint on both his paintable and &#039;&#039;unpaintable&#039;&#039; white parts. The toy was released as a contest prize in AEON Malaysia, which ran from 15 September to 15 October 2014. To enter the competition, participants needed to collect the contest flyer first, purchase the regular Leader Class Jetfire toy, and then answer one simple question regarding Jetfire&#039;s alternate mode. Hilariously, while the actual answer is Jet, there are 3 additional answers: &#039;&#039;Yacht&#039;&#039;, &#039;&#039;Bus&#039;&#039;, and &#039;&#039;Motorcycle&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;

He also comes with 2 buildable guns, which are formed from his jet tail fins and pistols.

:Although the stock photos show the guns being nudged completely into the red parts, there isn&#039;t enough space to do so.

Of course, being a &#039;&#039;Hero Mashers&#039;&#039; piece, it can be attached anywhere, including being hand-held, and since it&#039;s got multiple gun barrels on the wings, hey, have at it.&lt;br /&gt;

Unlike the base mold, his wings can swing in and out like his original G1 figure. However, there are two pegs on each wing that are used to lock them in position (either full sweep or high-maneuverability), and a lack of clearance requires the wing assembly to be opened to move them in addition to unpegging them from the back of the arms.

He is one of the few toys in the &#039;&#039;Siege&#039;&#039; line &#039;&#039;not&#039;&#039; sporting battle damage paint applications, though he does have a very light &#039;reentry fade&#039; on his lower legs and nosecone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In robot mode, the faction symbol on his chest can flip around to be either Autobot or Decepticon, a reference to the original &#039;&#039;[[The Transformers (cartoon)|The Transformers]]&#039;&#039; cartoon episode &amp;quot;[[Fire in the Sky]]&amp;quot; and to recreate his faction swap in the [[Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy (cartoon)|&#039;&#039;Siege&#039;&#039;]] cartoon (alternately, you can pretend he&#039;s performing the [[Rite of the Autobrand]] as seen in the original Marvel comic). The [[5 mm post]]-hole rings in his hands are designed to recess into his palms when his fingers are extended forward so he looks less awkward in an open-handed pose. Adding the Skyshield Aerial Armor and Skyshield Battle Mask gives his robot mode a &#039;&#039;slightly&#039;&#039; more original-toy appearance. Some copies may have difficulty attaching his chest armor properly due to the small flip-out panels not lining up perfectly: pulling the chest panels open and then putting them back once the armor is attached can help, or it can be attached by a single panel instead of both. While Jetfire does have ankle tilts, there are small but fairly strong clips that lock them in, so a bit of force may be required to unlock them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In jet mode, along with deployable landing gear with rolling wheels, he features four pop-out handles on his underside that allow other &#039;&#039;Siege&#039;&#039; figures (or any toy or accessory with a 5 mm grip) to hang underneath him, letting him air-drop his comrades into battle. He can also carry up to three [[Titan Master#Toys|Titan Master]]s or [[Prime Master#Toys|Prime Master]]s in jet mode: removing the filler computer core inside his cockpit (by folding down the nosecone) reveals space for one Master, while the back end of the Turbo Thruster Booster Pack lifts up to reveal space for two more Masters. Oddly, this feature is not shown in his instructions. The core also has a 5 mm hole in it so um... there&#039;s that. There is a 5 mm hexagonal port on his underside that appears to be for heavier-duty flight stands, since it is recessed too far to peg in any of his own weapons. Some transformation joints on his wings can also simulate working air flaps. During development, the jet was originally designed as a different &amp;quot;Cybetronian&amp;quot; jet akin to the rest of &#039;&#039;Siege&#039;&#039;, but Shogo Hasui pushed for it to more closely match his cartoon appearance instead, just like the robot mode.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Gen2020&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In either mode, his many many [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]] weapons can be mounted on him in a variety of ways. His two &amp;quot;JF-25 HS Photon Missile Sky Launcher&amp;quot; rifles can be combined into a single double-barreled gun vaguely similar to the original animation model&#039;s double-barreled cannon. In this configuration, they form the core of a massive pile of weapons and armor that goes on top of his jet mode (as if he wasn&#039;t anti-aerodynamic &#039;&#039;enough&#039;&#039;). In &#039;&#039;another&#039;&#039; undocumented feature, his &amp;quot;JF-15 HP Jetboost Particle Beam Cannons&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;SF-M2 Radiograph Booster&amp;quot; double-cannons are two-part weapons that can be pulled apart for even more versatility. He also has a large number of 3 mm &amp;quot;blast effect&amp;quot; hardpoints all over his body and on the tips of his weapons. His two multi-part blast effects have 5 mm posts with 3 mm holes in the middle on each part, making them very versatile in simulating his jet thrusters or outgoing or incoming weapons fire. Jetfire was also intended to interact with the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System|Weaponizer]] [[Six-Gun#War for Cybertron: Siege|Sixgun]] in jet mode, though this was, &#039;&#039;once again&#039;&#039;, never advertised.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://twitter.com/tf__tf/status/1205868925067513857 Siege Jetfire and Sixgun combination] from &#039;&#039;[[Transformers Generations 2020]]&#039;&#039; book&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:For those curious, the computer core accessory appears to be a reference to the episode &amp;quot;[[Fire on the Mountain (episode)|Fire on the Mountain]]&amp;quot;, where a close-up of &#039;&#039;Skyfire&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&#039;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;s cockpit interior is shown as he is being defrosted by [[Wheeljack (G1)|Wheeljack]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fzq3C4hkfNE&amp;amp;t=373 &amp;quot;Fire on the Mountain&amp;quot; episode timestamp 6:13] - on [[Hasbro Pulse]]&#039;s official YouTube channel.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Unfortunately, Jetfire is among one of a long list of figures to suffer from [[photodegradation]] in his [[unpaintable plastic]] parts, as a result of unknown causes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Bizarrely, many [[Walmart]] stores in the US put him on instant clearance, causing him to ring up at $40 rather than the actual $80 he&#039;s supposed to cost. This made some people very happy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:This figure saw reissues in late-2022 and mid-2024 and was also redecoed into &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)#Shattered Glass Collection|Shattered Glass Collection]]&#039;&#039; [[Jetfire (SG)#Shattered_Glass_Collection|Jetfire]]. &lt;br /&gt;

Inspired by the Generation 1 cartoon in design, he transforms into a space jet.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Skyfire comes with a multitude of accessories. For vehicle mode, there is a display stand, and three small, articulated figurines (&amp;quot;Convoy&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;Meister&amp;quot;, and &amp;quot;Wheeljack&amp;quot;) that scale with the vehicle mode and can ride inside of it. Skyfire features several opening hatches for this purpose. As for robot mode, Skyfire comes with three robot faces, including one based on the original masked &#039;&#039;Macross&#039;&#039; design (no antennae though). He also has three interchangeable chest plates displaying an Autobot insignia, a Decepticon insignia, and one that is blank, to replicate the scene in &amp;quot;[[Fire in the Sky]]&amp;quot; where he removes his Decepticon badge and changes allegiances to the Autobots. Also inspired by that same episode, Skyfire&#039;s helmet opens up to reveal a brainwave monitor. Lastly, he has his iconic &amp;quot;Photon Missile Launcher&amp;quot;, which can be used in robot mode or clipped onto his vehicle mode.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:And yes, he is able to turn into a gerwalk mode. Awesome.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Confirmed in an interview seen in the 278th issue of &#039;&#039;[[Figure Ō]]&#039;&#039; magazine, Skyfire was officially revealed on [[June 2]], [[2022]]. In [[Japan]] this figure was [[exclusive]] to [[TakaraTomy Mall]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:On many specimens, the large strong springs inside Skyfire&#039;s ankles shove too firmly against the pins holding his heel extensions in place, preventing the feet from opening fully flat and thus interfering with some standing poses. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:On [[July 22]], [[2013]], Harmony Gold, owner of the rights to the &#039;&#039;Robotech&#039;&#039; franchise and U.S. claimant to the &#039;&#039;Macross&#039;&#039; rights, [https://web.archive.org/web/20131014085251/http://www.courthousenews.com/2013/07/23/Transformers.pdf filed a copyright infringement suit against Hasbro]. In the filing, Harmony Gold argued that the release somehow infringed upon the intellectual property of the Veritech, but noted that &amp;quot;damages are difficult to ascertain&amp;quot;. They demanded that Hasbro recall all Jetfires that had been sold, that all Jetfires (including the recalled ones) be either destroyed or handed over to Harmony Gold, and that Hasbro turn over all profits relating to the sales; this was to happen in addition to payment for all actual damages to Harmony Gold (despite Harmony Gold itself not knowing how much the actual damages were) and all punitive assessments assigned against Hasbro.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Subsequently, an order was filed on September 23rd, 2013, to [http://generalsjoes.com/2013/10/10/hasbro-and-harmony-gold-reportedly-settle-lawsuit-over-sdcc-exclusive-jetfire/ dismiss the case with prejudice], implying that Harmony Gold and Hasbro have reached a settlement. Although confirmation of a settlement, much less details thereof, has not been revealed, the fact that the case was dismissed &#039;&#039;with prejudice&#039;&#039; means that Harmony Gold cannot sue over the Jetfire issue again.

&lt;br /&gt;
:Released in the second wave of [[Super7]]&#039;s line of multi-property 3.75-inch &amp;quot;retro&amp;quot; action figures, &#039;&#039;[[ReAction]]&#039;&#039; Skyfire is a non-converting 3 3/4-inch action figure based on his appearance in the original cartoon, with 5 points of articulation (swivel neck, shoulders, hips) and holes in his feet for use with some variety of stand. Unlike the first-wave figures, both of his hands are open and can grip his included cannon accessory.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As with all releases in the &#039;&#039;ReAction&#039;&#039; toyline, Skyfire comes packaged on a small cardback that emulates the nostalgic packaging style of [[Kenner]]&#039;s &#039;&#039;[[Star Wars (franchise)|Star Wars]]&#039;&#039; action figures from the late 1970s to early &#039;80s.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
: One of the six headline figures from the fifth wave of Blokees&#039; Defender Version blindbox kits, this Jetfire is a 2.2-inch (5.5cm) figure, a few inches smaller than the Galaxy Version kits, but still articulated. In addition to the Photon Missile Launcher, Jetfire also had a double-sided head, featuring both his regular and battle masks, which could be displayed by swiveling them to the front. Like most of the larger Galaxy Version kits, Jetfire features a simple neck joint that is colored to match his optics, allowing it to be see-through from his head&#039;s eye holes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: This mold was also used to make the [[Jetfire (SG)#Blokees|Shattered Glass version of the character]] from the same entry.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:This kit of Jetfire is molded in his signature jet mode. He also features two interactive areas that other robot kit characters can use: an opening upper panel with two pegs for the feet, and a pair of pegs underneath the jet for plugging their hands onto, or mount onto the back of the robot mode kits as a very bulky jetpack. Additionally, Jetfire features a pair of ball-joint sockets and a ball-jointed lower undercarriage, which can be removed from those joints. These features may suggest the possibility of a &amp;quot;Gerwalk mode&amp;quot; using parts from the Jetfire robot kit.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
: The &amp;quot;Special Armor Type&amp;quot; version of the Jetfire kit is an alternate version of the regular figure, decked out in pearlescent and metallic paint, a few more paint details, and a Decepticon symbol representing his appearance as the leader of the Seekers in Netflix&#039;s &#039;&#039;War for Cybertron&#039;&#039; cartoon. He also comes with a launched missile effect that can attach to his back, as well as a right hand with an integrated Energy Sword based on the weapon he used in the show. Unlike the SG chase variant, this Jetfire has an even slimmer pull rate of 1 in every 144 boxes, or once per twelve cases.&lt;br /&gt;

==Notes==&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:TakatokuSuperValkyrie.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|C&#039;mon, Hasbro. You &#039;&#039;&#039;know&#039;&#039;&#039; you want to make a &amp;quot;Skull Squadron&amp;quot; version of &#039;&#039;some&#039;&#039; [[Jetfire (disambiguation)|Jetfire]]. What&#039;s [[Bandai]] going to do?]]&lt;br /&gt;
*As mentioned above, unlike most of the early &#039;&#039;Transformers&#039;&#039; range, the Jetfire toy was designed by [[Takatoku Toys]], being a [[redeco]] (with minor retools to blunt the nosecone and add two tabs to keep the wings from their forward-most position) of their 1/55 [https://web.archive.org/web/20180120173238/http://1501bc.com:80/pretf/macross.html &#039;&#039;Macross&#039;&#039; VF-1S Super Valkyrie]. Naturally, because he was not designed by [[TakaraTomy|Takara]], Jetfire was not released in Japan, since the toy (or, at least, a dozen variations of it) was released by one of Takara&#039;s rival toy companies.&lt;br /&gt;
*Jetfire&#039;s [[#Generation 2|&#039;&#039;Generation 2&#039;&#039; colour scheme]] nearly inspired the &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]&#039;&#039; multi-pack incarnation of the Mini-Con [[Terradive (Armada)#Notes|Terradive]], but this did not come to fruition.&lt;br /&gt;
*Harmony Gold released a modern toy of the VF-1S Super Valkyrie recolored into the original color scheme of Generation 1 Jetfire in 2023 under the cheeky name of &amp;quot;God of Flame&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/kitzconcept-jetfire-god-of-flame-standard-and-shattered-glass.1246636/&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Is it deeply hypocritical that they would try - and fail - to frivolously slap suit Hasbro for their &#039;&#039;G.I. Joe&#039;&#039; Jetfire crossover and then use the very color scheme that Hasbro invented in one of their own toys in a pretty clear attempt to cut into their market? Absolutely. Is this surprising? No, because Harmony Gold [[Super Dimension Fortress Macross#Attempted interference by a terrible company|is an absolutely pathetic company that is universally despised by fans of the mecha genre]].&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Daniel and Wheelie&#039;s first team-up! Oh noes!&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Synopsis==&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Firstaidfixesmultramagnus.jpg|left|upright=1.1|thumb|It&#039;s a good thing you called me, they&#039;ve stolen your cyber-kidney.]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Spike Witwicky (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Spike]] and the [[Autobot]]s throw a surprise party for [[Daniel Witwicky (G1)|Daniel]], but it is interrupted by an attack from the [[Combaticon (G1)|Combaticons]]. [[Wheelie (G1)|Wheelie]] gets caught in the crossfire and [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ultra Magnus]] throws himself over the boy Autobot to save him from being shot. After hitting the shuttle bay and destroying several ships, the Combaticons retreat. The attack was a coordinated effort by [[Galvatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Galvatron]] to disrupt a [[First Inter Galactic Peace Conference|peace conference]] to be hosted on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] the next day. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Nafromlibrarianbot.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|That&#039;s a karaoke machine. Right now it&#039;s playing the end of &amp;quot;Lovin&#039;, Touchin&#039;, Squeezin&#039;&amp;quot; by Journey.]]&lt;br /&gt;
Daniel and Wheelie want to throw Ultra Magnus a surprise party, but no one knows the date of his creation and it isn’t on file in the [[Hall of Records]]. An annoying and clumsy [[Custodiobot]] tells them that the information must be stored on the lost Autobot storage asteroid. Daniel and Wheelie steal a garbage ship and head out to find the asteroid and the info. Unbeknownst to them, their movements are being watched by [[Cyclonus (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Cyclonus]], who evidently doesn’t have anything better to do than spy on garbage ships. Galvatron orders his troops to follow it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Stuck in a meteor shower, Daniel and Wheelie crash on an asteroid that—surprise!—happens to be the asteroid they were looking for. While they are exploring they are attacked by scaly flying eels and take refuge in a cave, which turns out to be the opening to the records. Inside, sentry robots attack them for asking for the wrong file name. To make matters worse, the eels have found their way inside and attach themselves to Wheelie. Just as they are about to be shot by the drones and eaten by the eels, both menaces are destroyed by Cyclonus and the [[Sweep (G1)|Sweeps]], who take the pair hostage and interrogate them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Cyclonus&amp;amp;daniel.jpg|left|upright=1.1|thumb|Apparently Deathsaurus isn&#039;t the only Decepticon who likes small children.]] &lt;br /&gt;
Cyclonus reprograms the asteroid into a collision course for Cybertron and then sends Spike a message that he’s holding Daniel hostage. The Autobots have two choices: destroy the asteroid and kill Daniel, or let the asteroid hit the planet and kill all the peace delegates. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ultra Magnus takes [[Sky Lynx (G1)|Sky Lynx]] to the asteroid. The Sweeps attack, but Magnus makes short work of them, then heads after Cyclonus. They pound on each other as Wheelie sneaks by and presses the convenient self-destruct button. Cyclonus runs off and the Autobots and Daniel escape in Sky Lynx as the asteroid blows up. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Safe on Cybertron, Daniel explains how they got into this mess, looking for Ultra Magnus&#039; [[birthday]]. Spike declares today as Ultra Magnus&#039; birthday and everyone cheers.&lt;br /&gt;

==Season 5==&lt;br /&gt;
{{note|When this episode was rebroadcast in [[The Transformers (cartoon)#Season 5|the fifth season]] of &#039;&#039;The Transformers&#039;&#039;, it contained new bookending segments with original story material.}}&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:TommysBirthday.jpg|thumb|Sweet, sweet Tommy, today is the day on your fake I.D.|upright=1.4]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Tommy Kennedy|Tommy]] and [[Powermaster]] [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]] meet in the barren wasteland and Optimus offers to tell Tommy any kind of story he wants. Tommy asks if he knows any &#039;&#039;[[birthday]]&#039;&#039; stories... specifically, stories about &#039;&#039;forgetting&#039;&#039; somebody&#039;s birthday. Hmm? &#039;&#039;HMMM?&#039;&#039; Seemingly not getting the hint, Optimus says he has just such a story...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After concluding the story, Prime notices that Tommy looks sullen and asks him what&#039;s wrong. Tommy asks Prime how he could forget his birthday. Prime then surprises him with a birthday cake, saying that it&#039;s from all the Autobots. As Tommy blows out the candles (15 of them, for the record), several other Autobots cheer him on.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{note|By recycling animation from the episode, the cake appears to be presented to Tommy by [[Hot Rod (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Rodimus Prime]], [[Wheelie (G1)|Wheelie]], [[Warpath (G1)|Warpath]], [[First Aid (G1)|First Aid]], [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ultra Magnus]] and [[Groove (G1)|Groove]].}}&lt;br /&gt;

==Notes==&lt;br /&gt;
===Continuity notes===&lt;br /&gt;
*So Blast Off can apparently become a huge troop-carrying shuttle, Astrotrain-style. Animation error, bad scripting, or little-used ability? You alone can choose!&lt;br /&gt;
*This isn&#039;t the [[Five Faces of Darkness, Part 4|first time]] that Wheelie has almost been done in by a swarm of little flying brown alien [[lightpole|creatures]] on some [[Io|desolate rock]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Animation and technical errors===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:SurpriseParty Magnus smiling.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|Smiled once and regretted it ever since.]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Supriseparty 2rodimuses.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|&amp;quot;Hi, I&#039;m Rodimus, and this is my twin, Not-Optimus&amp;quot;]]&lt;br /&gt;
*Wheelie&#039;s transformations are very inconsistent across the episode, and his driving stunts don&#039;t seem to be anywhere close to what the script presumably called for. When trying to shake loose the eel creatures, for example, he just drives along with hardly any swerving, breaking, etc. Magnus&#039;s proportions, eye shape, and face details are likewise inconsistent.&lt;br /&gt;
*Daniel consistently pronounces Wheelie&#039;s name as &amp;quot;WHEE-LEE&amp;quot;, rather than &amp;quot;WHEEL-ee&amp;quot; like all the other characters.&lt;br /&gt;
*The &amp;quot;CONTROL ROOM&amp;quot; that Daniel enters is labeled with jumbled hand-written letters when we first see it, but squared computer-font letters as Daniel approaches it. Its control panel has circular yellow buttons beside it (in the long shot) that change to square red buttons (when he presses them).&lt;br /&gt;
*When Daniel opens the door, space is seen behind him - twice - even though he was just in an enclosed hallway.&lt;br /&gt;
*Daniel then starts feeling around on a totally blank wall for a on/off switch that only appears in a closeup shot of his hand.&lt;br /&gt;
*The lights make a bizarrely loud noise when they turn on.&lt;br /&gt;
*Coloring errors:&lt;br /&gt;
**Groove&#039;s helmet is white instead of black during the &amp;quot;SURPRISE!&amp;quot; pan; it&#039;s black in the next shot as Spike steps forward.&lt;br /&gt;
**Cyclonus&#039;s cockpit windows are lavender instead of orange as he watches Galvatron declare that &amp;quot;there shall be no peace&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
**In the first shot of the Combaticons firing on the shuttle bay, Swindle is colored green. Since he&#039;s in jeep mode, it makes him look just like [[Hound (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Hound]]! He&#039;s also missing his right rear wheel. Behind him, Brawl&#039;s rear tank mode section is colored like Onslaught.&lt;br /&gt;
***Green Swindle reappears in a closeup shot a moment later.&lt;br /&gt;
**As the Autobots fire on the attacking Combaticons, First Aid&#039;s chest is colored mostly white instead of red.&lt;br /&gt;
**After the Combaticons retreat, in the foreground, one of the wrecked shuttles is colored like Blast Off!&lt;br /&gt;
**As Daniel talks to Wheelie about setting up the party for Magnus, the white circles on Magnus&#039; waist are red.&lt;br /&gt;
**As Daniel and Wheelie ask him about Magnus&#039; birthday, Perceptor&#039;s chin is white.&lt;br /&gt;
**&amp;quot;Do you think he&#039;s lost?&amp;quot; - Ultra Magnus&#039;s chin guards are white instead of blue.&lt;br /&gt;
**In a wide shot of Blaster and Spike at the monitor, Blaster&#039;s helmet is almost completely white.&lt;br /&gt;
**As Spike reacts to Cyclonus&#039;s appearance, Blaster&#039;s arm and shoulder are in Cyclonus&#039;s colors.&lt;br /&gt;
**Magnus&#039;s eyes are too small as he launches a missile at the Sweeps; his launcher is also mis-drawn, and colored blue instead of white. He&#039;s also missing the launcher on his other shoulder.&lt;br /&gt;
*Ultra Magnus is missing the white circles on his waist as he stands behind Wheelie during the surprise party.&lt;br /&gt;
*Vortex fires on Wheelie with a non-standard laser sound effect.&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:SurpriseParty GiantBlastOff.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|The worse the episode, the bigger Blast Off&#039;s shuttle mode is.]]&lt;br /&gt;
*When the Combaticons retreat, Bruticus is seen running with them instead of Onslaught. See Continuity Errors as well, below.&lt;br /&gt;
*Onslaught&#039;s voice is missing its electronic processing.&lt;br /&gt;
*In the pan across the damaged shuttle bay, Hot Rod is drawn and colored instead of Rodimus Prime. Nearby, another robot&#039;s waist and legs are colored like Rodimus.&lt;br /&gt;
*As Daniel asks if the shuttle can still fly, Wheelie is missing his Autobot symbol.&lt;br /&gt;
*Magnus is missing his missile launchers as First Aid repairs him.&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:First Inter Galactic Peace Conference.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|Well come on down! You&#039;re the next delegate on... The Peace Is Right!]]&lt;br /&gt;
*Spelling errors:&lt;br /&gt;
**Over the entrance to the peace conference, the word &amp;quot;welcome&amp;quot; is spelt &amp;quot;wellcome&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
**Wheelie activates the asteroid&#039;s &amp;quot;auto destrut sequences&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
*During Daniel and Wheelie&#039;s conversation with the librarian bot, Wheelie makes their request but it&#039;s Daniel&#039;s mouth and hands that are moving.&lt;br /&gt;
*Near as anybody can tell, Cyclonus&#039; face, neck and eyebrows are all supposed to be a light gray. In this episode, like many others, they are light lavender instead. He&#039;s also got a purple &amp;quot;goatee&amp;quot;/chin. &lt;br /&gt;
**As Cyclonus pounds a control panel, his chin &#039;&#039;is&#039;&#039; the same color as his face.&lt;br /&gt;
*The garbage scow jumps from empty space to inside the meteor shower between shots, with no transition.&lt;br /&gt;
**Then after the ship is damaged, it&#039;s suddenly back in empty space again.&lt;br /&gt;
***Then all of a sudden it&#039;s crash-landing on the storage asteroid.&lt;br /&gt;
*The head delegate&#039;s fist clips through the matte painted table as he bangs his gavel.&lt;br /&gt;
*Wheelie&#039;s canopy usually slides into place from the back of his cabin, but as Daniel jumps out on the asteroid it hinges up to the side (and again as they flee from the crazed librarian robots.)&lt;br /&gt;
*As Daniel and Wheelie enter the cave, a [[scene transition]] runs, but the background music and sound effects play over it instead of the usual flip-change music.&lt;br /&gt;
*In two closeups of Daniel inside Wheelie&#039;s cabin, he&#039;s drawn with the wall of a full-sized room behind him.&lt;br /&gt;
*As he shoots the sentry-bots, Scourge&#039;s gun uses the sound effect from Megatron&#039;s cannon.&lt;br /&gt;
*Daniel&#039;s reaction dialog is oddly patched together: &amp;quot;Cyclonus! ...huh? Come on, Wheelie! ...Wheelie, I think we&#039;d better get out of here.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
*Cyclonus&#039; eyebrows are missing as repeats the name of the Storage Asteroid, and again as he comments on Wheelie activating the auto destruct.&lt;br /&gt;
*As Spike runs up, Blaster&#039;s mouth moves, but there&#039;s no dialogue, and Blaster&#039;s helmet rims are white instead of red.&lt;br /&gt;
*When Ultra Magnus points at Cyclonus through the monitor he has six fingers.&lt;br /&gt;
*Just before Ultra Magnus enlists Sky Lynx&#039;s help in finding Daniel, two Rodimus Primes can be seen guarding the entrance to the Peace Conference.&lt;br /&gt;
*Sky Lynx&#039;s cockpit appears tiny - just big enough for Magnus to ride in, like a fighter jet. Though it&#039;s much more scale appropriate, in nearly every other episode (see the earlier episode &amp;quot;[[Chaos (episode)|Chaos]]&amp;quot;, for example) he has a much roomier interior.&lt;br /&gt;
*Sky Lynx&#039;s lynx mode seems to have developed a rash! He&#039;s got a bunch of black dots on his face as he points at the remains of the garbage scow, and again as he fires at the Sweeps, and yet again as he waits for Magnus to return.&lt;br /&gt;
*While Ultra Magnus and Sky Lynx are fighting the eels, Sky Lynx has a red Decepticon logo in two shots.&lt;br /&gt;
*Ultra Magnus is drawn mouthing Sky Lynx&#039;s &amp;quot;disgusting creatures&amp;quot; line.&lt;br /&gt;
*Cyclonus orders the Sweeps to attack with deep space sky behind him in two successive shots... and then the Sweeps are shown charging out of a cave.&lt;br /&gt;
*The first shot fired by Ultra Magnus at the Sweeps uses the sound effect from Optimus/Rodimus Prime&#039;s rifle. The subsequent shots have the usual Autobot laser sound. Then Magnus fires his shoulder rockets, and they too use Prime&#039;s rifle sound (they had their own distinct &amp;quot;fwoosh&amp;quot; earlier in the show).&lt;br /&gt;
*When Wheelie drives through the cell door, it&#039;s missing the line down its the middle.&lt;br /&gt;
*Sky Lynx&#039;s mouth doesn&#039;t move during his &amp;quot;superb physique&amp;quot; line.&lt;br /&gt;
*When Cyclonus runs up to Magnus (who is embedded in a wall), he&#039;s a bit taller and more massive than Magnus, when he should be at least a head shorter.&lt;br /&gt;
*As Wheelie, Daniel, and Sky Lynx wait for Ultra Magnus, Sky Lynx speaks but it&#039;s Wheelie whose mouth is moving.&lt;br /&gt;
*As Daniel and Wheelie worry about Magnus, Sky Lynx (filling the background behind them) is colored entirely white in one shot, then orange in the next.&lt;br /&gt;
*As Ultra Magnus fights Cyclonus, his shoulder missiles appear and disappear between shots. As he looks after the retreating Cyclonus, he&#039;s got only one of his launchers.&lt;br /&gt;
*Right after Wheelie presses the button, Ultra Magnus&#039; head is all-white. As he stoops over, his face morphs into an indistinct shape (Cyclonus is missing his Decepticon symbol during this shot).&lt;br /&gt;
*Cyclonus&#039;s wing clips through the door as he transforms and flees.&lt;br /&gt;
*Since Ultra Magnus&#039;s mouth is moving at the end of the episode, it looks like he&#039;s wishing himself a happy birthday!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Continuity errors===&lt;br /&gt;
*Nice of Warpath to have a conveniently loud squeak in his joints just as the plot needs something to draw Daniel&#039;s attention.&lt;br /&gt;
*Just how is Daniel unable to recognize the highly distinctive profiles of Warpath, Rodimus, Magnus, etc?&lt;br /&gt;
*The Combaticons fire at the Autobots from some kind of rocky outcropping next to the shuttle hangar. A rocky outcropping on a machine planet.&lt;br /&gt;
*First Aid, the pacifist, sure loves shooting guns!&lt;br /&gt;
*Blast Off&#039;s shuttle mode is &#039;&#039;huge&#039;&#039; as the Combaticons retreat - they run inside him with plenty of room to spare. He&#039;s usually shown to have little or no size-changing when he transforms - as in &amp;quot;[[Chaos (episode)|Chaos]]&amp;quot;, when [[Runamuck (G1)|Runamuck]] rode astride him.&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Surprise Party Hall of Records.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4]]&lt;br /&gt;
*The super-advanced space robots&#039; record keeping systems are a little dodgy:&lt;br /&gt;
**Central Records doesn&#039;t have any access to the electronic data in the Hall of Records.&lt;br /&gt;
**The Hall of Records has stacks of printed-on-paper books inside.&lt;br /&gt;
**Nobody seems to have kept a copy of the storage asteroid&#039;s contents on Cybertron.&lt;br /&gt;
*The automated, unmanned Cybertronian garbage ship has a cabin suitable for humans (and a human-ish sized [[Mini Vehicle|Minibot]].)&lt;br /&gt;
*So Cyclonus just stands around watching Garbage Scow TV all day, waiting for something to happen? Not only does he spend his time watching garbage ships, but the fact that one of them is off course is apparently reason to alert Galvatron. Okay...&lt;br /&gt;
*Wheelie just flies the shuttle right into a meteor shower. Was he not paying attention at the controls?&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Daniel&amp;amp;wheeliesurpriseparty.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|I&#039;m a Witwicky, and I can breathe in space.]]&lt;br /&gt;
*Does the asteroid have an oxygen-rich atmosphere? Because Daniel doesn&#039;t have a space suit...and neither the vacuum of space, nor a lack of oxygen if there is air, seem to have an effect. Maybe it&#039;s part of those superhuman abilities those Witwickys have...&lt;br /&gt;
*Cyclonus&#039;s hostage-taking plan isn&#039;t executed very well:&lt;br /&gt;
**He plans to crash the asteroid into Cybertron, betting the Autobots won&#039;t stop it for fear of endangering Wheelie and Daniel. Wouldn&#039;t they be more at risk by being left &#039;&#039;on&#039;&#039; the crashing asteroid?&lt;br /&gt;
**He puts Wheelie and Daniel in a cell that Wheelie can escape from by just &#039;&#039;driving through the door&#039;&#039;. Cyclonus is totally unaware of their escape, not having assigned a guard or anything to watch them.&lt;br /&gt;
*After landing at the asteroid, Sky Lynx&#039;s combined shuttle/lander form transforms into just the lander&#039;s lynx mode. His shuttle portion doesn&#039;t reappear until the Autobots are flying away from the exploding asteroid. He was portrayed this way in the Marvel comics - akin to a Triple Changer - but the cartoon is generally consistent in showing him with two components that split and combine (yet again, refer to &amp;quot;Chaos&amp;quot; to see it done correctly. Heck, even &amp;quot;[[Five Faces of Darkness, Part 5|Five Faces of Darkness]]&amp;quot; got this one right!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Trivia===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:SurpriseParty Daniel and Wheelie.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|Daniel!! WHEELIE!!! The thrilling team-up that YOU didn&#039;t demand!!]]&lt;br /&gt;
*This was one of twelve episodes of [[The Transformers (cartoon)|the original cartoon]] released as audio adventures by the [[Germany|German]] company [[Karussell|Karussell Musik und Video]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Apparently no one is sad that the storage asteroid has been destroyed. How many priceless pieces of information have been lost?&lt;br /&gt;
*Fly off into space with no plan. Fly right into an asteroid cluster. Run right into a meteor. Crash land at random. Still find your objective. Daniel and Wheelie are the worst - and &#039;&#039;luckiest&#039;&#039; - searchers in the entire universe.&lt;br /&gt;

:::*Wheelie&#039;s line &amp;quot;Trying to fight, but they hold tight!&amp;quot; is missing.&lt;br /&gt;
:::*In English, Daniel tells Cyclonus that the place is an ice cream factory, in the dub he says it&#039;s a chocolate factory.&lt;br /&gt;
:::*Ultra Magnus&#039; line &amp;quot;Cyclonus, if you harm that boy...&amp;quot; is dubbed by &amp;quot;Release this buffoon and don&#039;t hurt him, do you hear me?&amp;quot;. What??&lt;br /&gt;
:::*For the first time, the grunts from the original version are recovered several times, notably when the eels attack Ultra Magnus and when he confronts Cyclonus.&lt;br /&gt;
:::*Name-dodging:&lt;br /&gt;
::::*Instead of starting his phrase with &amp;quot;First Aid&amp;quot;, Spike says &amp;quot;Say, I would like you to repair this device, it&#039;s very urgent&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
::::*Daniel&#039;s line &amp;quot;Ultra Magnus always thinks of others before he thinks of himself, doesn&#039;t he?&amp;quot; is dubbed by &amp;quot;It&#039;s amazing to see that, he always thinks of others before thinking of himself&amp;quot;. That is strange since usually, Ultra Magnus is one of the rare robots to have his name regularly pronounced in the dub.&lt;br /&gt;
::::*Daniel&#039;s line &amp;quot;Perceptor, are you sure you can&#039;t tell us when Ultra Magnus was created?&amp;quot; is dubbed by &amp;quot;So you can&#039;t tell us when it was built either?&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
::::*Wheelie&#039;s phrase &amp;quot;Daniel my friend, our journey is at an end!&amp;quot; is replaced by &amp;quot;What are we going to do? I don&#039;t want to stay here&amp;quot;, which kinda goes against the original version.&lt;br /&gt;
::::*Ultra Magnus does not name Sky Lynx when telling him to fuel up, he just says &amp;quot;Get ready, the future of Cybertron is up to us!&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
