If I knew you were selling

If I knew you were selling off the leftovers from Summit, I would have e-mailed you sooner. There was stuff in there I wanted! O_o;

I can't stand bootlegs, especially poorly-made ones.

a thing of beauty

It looks so sci-fi with the redesigned wings, vertical stabilizers and cockpit. Like some naive "jet of the future" concept from the 70s.

"To start, the rubber nosecone has been replaced with a METAL TIP."

AWESOME.

"In jet mode, the toy has several modifications from the original design. To start, the rubber nosecone has been replaced with a METAL TIP."

The Four Star jet

A very desirable piece! I have owned the black and the white which I sold on ebay not to along ago. Each going for over $100-$200. You were right that the gray is the rarest to get. The black and white still transform like their G1 counterparts. The gray is different in that aspect as you stated. Also the black and white have hard plastic nose cones and are not metal like the you said the gray was.
I still have quite a few extra wing parts for both colors. I always felt that missiles were some much better than the G1. Also the black and white have fists like the G1. Thanks for the review, this is the first time I was able to see a gray close up like this. A true variation of the Fourstar line. Wonder which one came first, the gray or the black and whites?

Ha! It's like Reverse Safety

Ha! It's like Reverse Safety Measures. "What? A rubber nosecone? GET THAT MESS OUTA HERE. You get a metal tip on that thing NOW! How the heck are you supposed to have fun with the thing if you can't launch it through the drywall? GEEZE. It's like you people think kids are gona poke each other's eyes out or something!"

I'd like to see someone draw

I'd like to see someone draw this (and those Dinobot remolds) as if they were Transformer characters.

LOL. I wouldn't have thought it was worth 10 bucks.
