Should I get Scourge or Jetfire?

[Guest solidspeir]

IMO, Jetfire is a much cooler toy - go with Jetfire and get Scourge on clearance later....

I prefer Scourge. He may not be better than Jetfire as far as articulation goes, but he looks much cooler to me.

Off topic, but I didn't want to have to start an entirely new topic when there's a Jetfire discussion going already. Is there any difference in paint apps between Dreadlock and Jetfire?

Nothing real noticable that I've seen.  I've got GF Dreadlock and I love him though.  Decent articulation, great color scheme and he jsut looks so cool.  of course his force chip ability is kinda lacking in bot mode (he has to bend over to use it) but otherwise a great toy.

Uh, I've seen GF and have Cybertron version of Jetfire and there are some differences- Cyber doesn't have red on his knees and there's no yellow finishing on his wings.  That's all I noticed.

Dreadrock also has some additonal silver apps on his plane body/lower legs (you can see this in the Cybertron box picture, which I assume is probably a Dreadlock).

It is not. I noticed, that usually there are three vesions of a TF toy- Japan version, Hasbro's promotional version, and true US version- usually Hasbro's versions are much better painted and japan-accurate than toys we buy in shops. I guess it works on Cybertron too. Just compare robot on Vector's box back, and what you really get. Big difference, isn't it? It pissed me off especially after opening my Gigacon Armada Prime- he would be so much better, if he looked like the toy on back of his box...

Are there any diffs with GF Scourge and C Scourge?

Also Dreadrock's force chip is a Cybertron chip while Jetfire's cyber key is an Earth key.

I actually think the Earth key makes more sense - he's obviously an Earth vehicle.

Scourge has a bright, firey yellow, as opposed to Flame Convoy's dirty mustard yellow.  Otherwise, paint-ap for paint-ap, they're identical.

I decided to open Scourge last night.......NOT dissapointed at all! What a great looking toy.  Yes, the arm articulation is horrible but he makes up for it in every other department.  Definite thumbs up from me!
