Reply With QuoteStill look shitty and uninspired, regardless of how mistransformed they are. They should've tried to model these closer to the original Macross design Jetfire was based on.
I've seen GOBOTS with better design than these two.

Those Jetstorm/Jetfire figures are extremely mistransformed.
I wouldn't rush to judgment on the Jetfire and Jetstorm figures yet. Those are some pretty terrible pictures that are out there right now. The pictures I saw way back of the grey prototypes looked really good. And yes, of course they have hands! In both robot modes! The promo pics are just mistransformed. Once they are properly transformed and posed out, they should look pretty cool.
This time, he comments on their combined jet mode, which is also mistransformed in the pictures seen so far - the intended design involves the rear of the jet opening out into an "X" formation for a more impressive silhouette.

The Beetle Gobot was better than Bumblebee, IMO. The tank was cool, too.
These are... crap.

So my local Walmart got in some Universe Deluxe wave 3 cases last night... but didn't shelve them.The reason? No room after putting out the other stuff that came in... namely multiple cases of Animated wave 3 and (wtf) a case of one of the last movie waves, with the stealth Bumblebee and jungle whatsisname bug-looking mine-finder guy. Yeah, THOSE are gonna fly off the shelf. If only I'd gotten there an hour earlier.

Gas, you can simply ask them to open the cases for you. Who doesn't want to move product off the shelf? I've done it multiple times before and the person didn't have a problem with me taking away some work from them.So my local Walmart got in some Universe Deluxe wave 3 cases last night... but didn't shelve them.

I did. (I'm not exactly a noob at this, y'know.) They wouldn't do it because both the section of the figures aisle for deluxe TFs and the big floor display the exclusives came in were already full to capacity. That's why I said "If only I'd gotten there an hour earlier" - i.e., I could have asked them to open one of the uni wave 3 cases before they shelved all the old crap that isn't gonna move.
