Toys
Kre-O
- Jetwash (Micro-Changer, 2014)
- Bag number: 40551 53
- Accessories: 2 buildable rifles
- Jetwash can be rebuilt from robot mode into a jet. He sports Prowl's helmet and the Starscream wing-backpack.
- Several samples of Jetwash had balance problems with the legs's ball-joint holes, causing the figure to fall over if not placed on a display brick. However, very little samples had perfectly balanced leg parts. Good luck for finding them.
- He was available in the fifth assortment of blind-bagged Kreon Micro-Changers, available only at ToysЯUs stores in the US and Canada.
- Kreon Class of 1985 (Kreon figure set, 2015)
- Accessories: Bazooka
- This version of Jetwash (now known as Jetfire), voted "The Brain" by the Kreon Class of 1985, features more toy-based tampographs than his prior version. He uses the Sideswipe helmet, missile-backpack, and the bazooka.
- He was only available in a pack of 30 Kreons dubbed "Class of 1985". This set was made for sale at San Diego Comic-Con 2014, or Hasbro Toy Shop online.
Notes
- Jetwash is a character based on Generation 1 Jetfire, given a new name for whatever reason. His appearance in the Kre-O comic predates the reveal of the new name and the toy.
- Toy-Jetwash uses a chest tampograph based on the original Jetfire toy, but the leg deco is based on the "Skyfire" cartoon model.
- In a decidedly unusual move, Jetwash in the Japanese Kre-O comic is not based on the actually-in-the-cartoon-that-aired-in-Japan "Skyfire" cartoon model. No, he's based on the didn't-appear-in-the-cartoon-and-never-sold-in-Japan-as-Jetfire-because-it's-from-major-competitor-Bandai original Jetfire toy. His parts in the comic are mostly concealed by his placement in the panel. However, he seems to use the ubiquitous Hound helmet and a similar wing construction to Thrust.
