thanks for these shots as you can see the differences for sure. still wish it was a 2 seater . though with all that detail it might be worth it to have one seat. i love the flight deck shots.

Awesome comparison shots! I love the Tollbooth reactions to the tow vehicle not fitting. :lol:

seems like a lot of good to compensate for the few negatives about this new incarnation.

and i liked seeing the Robotech/Macross Valkyrie at the tail end of your Flag. we need a Joe fitting version of those that is highly detailed and still transforms to all 3 modes.

Yeah I have no real complaints about the Skystriker (I don't mind the one seat cockpit)

I would have liked to see a skull and crossbones on the sticker sheet (It could have doubled for Macross/Robotech or Action Force) Course that would have made it really hard for me to choose between the skull or the eagle :)

i didn't even think of a simple sticker nod. that would have been nice, you're right.

Great comparison shots. It looks like the preproduction one has slightly longer racks for the missiles. I just got mine a couple nights ago and the only issue I have is that the missiles fall off so easily and the removable fuel tank really doesn't lock in, so it is no longer useful as a handle.

It is nice to see the detailed shots here. Great job.
