Thanks to 2005 Boards member Actar for sharting a great gallery of in-hand pictures of Studio Series SS-35 Leader Class Jetfire in our forums. To top it all, we have an extensive set of pictures of the Jetpower Optimus Prime combined mode for your viewing pleasure.
Studio Series Leader Class Jetfire proves to be a great movie-accurate representation of the Seeker warrior seen in the Revenge Of The Fallen film. Proportions and alt mode are well executed, with a new combination sequence different from what we had with the original ROTF Leader Class toy. The Studio Series Jetfire uses a parts-forming sequence to combine with the Voyager Studio Series SS-32 Optimus Prime, bringing a solid and easy connection with all parts. You can use part of the jet mode to add an impressive and enormous gun to the Jetpower combination.
Better than the original ROTF Leader Class toys combination? It’s up to you to decide it. Check all the mirrored images after the jump and then share your impressions on the 2005 Boards!

Yes and yes.

Is that the dark of the moon one?

Can Jetfire combine with ss 45 Optimus?
Shepard Prime
Looks so much more cohesive that the original version.

So I picked up Jetfire and I gotta say, I'm glad I never picked up the first one.
I think the only thing that bothers me about him is his eyes.
I just can't not see 4 eyes with that black piece in the middle of the red.
Like what kind of expression are his eyes making?
Just looks weird to me.

So, I’m totally loving these two. Detaching jetfires legs for combined mode terrified me the first time but that combined mode looks stunning!

Thank you. Really just wanted to know if that was an option.
I am getting Jetfire for sure. But now I will just keep Jetfire as Jetfire in bot/jet mode. He looks amazing in Chefatron's youtube review.
I don't need to tear a cool looking robot apart and attach him to an Optimus. Will be passing on the second SS Optimus for sure.

He won't. The new Optimus has a bunch of addition tabs and slots that allow the combination. Jetfire has nowhere to attach to with the original figure.

The million dollar question…
Does anyone know if Studio Series Jetfire will comine with the first Studio Optimus 05?!

given how much Megatron let himself go in this iteration, are we sure this isn't just patented extra Studio Series accuracy™?
PrimeVsPrime
Yes, if you move them out too far the waist detaches
Trevor Belmont
Looking great!
Is the hip articulation really as bad as people say it is?
Actar
Well, I caved and decided to give Megatron a shot. Have to admit, he's much better than I thought he'd be. The cloth cape really works wonders.
Even though the transformation is rather simple and panel ridden, I'm actually impressed how they managed to get that long truck into such a bulky bot mode. Also, they actually managed to get all the wheels in the right places. Credit where credit is due.

Me too!
Digger
Indeed. I’m gonna plan my next sets of purchases through them.
hthrun
They're highly regarded.
Digger
That’s the third time someone has mentioned Show Z to me on a different board. Weird.
hthrun
That's pretty much what forth party means. I believe ShowZ uses that terminology.
