On a personal note ... this is the first gallery that I completed start-to-finish with my new camera. If the contrast seems a little off in some of the photos, that's why! I'm still learning the ins-and-outs of my new camera.

This figure looks incredible. This is by far a knock out of the park.

This is a very cool looking figure. Mine should be arriving sometime next week and if it's half as awesome as he is in these pics, I cannot wait.
Now where's a new Artfire!

OMG! Those pics look fantastic. I love displaying my Classics with their G1 counterparts and seeing those two together in your gallery has now convinced me to buy it. I have the G1 Stepper and was really trying to refrain from dropping the money on this version but now there's no doubt.....it must be done.

As awesome as this toy looks, I can not find myself dropping $120+Shipping for it.

i hear ya......it's hella expensive. I'm trying real hard to not pull the trigger and buy it. That's a lot of money for a deluxe but it looks so good. Quite the conundrum. It's got such a nice paint job on top of being such an excellent looking mold. Very classy.

Why must you torment us so?!?
Wasn't going to get this... but now may not be able to resist. Best repaint I've seen in a long time!

RTS Jazz is an awesome update of G1 Jazz, for my money maybe the best we have seen in the classicsverse until now, but Stepper may be even nicer. I've never spent that much for an exclusive outside of BotCon, but I'm reaaaally considering it.

Beautiful! 
Only two minor complaints.
1. His visor isn't painted blue like the stock photos depicted.
2. The Jazz mold doesn't allow Stepper and Nebulon to "Target On" like Cyclonus and Nightstick can...
...which itself make no sense since Cyclonus wasn't ever a Targetmaster in The Headmasters (from which "Target On" originates).

I'm glad they aren't. His eyes are a clear yellowish plastic that looks really sharp. Considering that the original toy's visor was painted the same color as his face, I'd say this was a nice touch (and a deliberate one at that). I would've been happy with blue as well since it'd keep in tune with the Autobot theme, but I like the nod to the original toy.
This irks me. I know this would have cost extra money to modify the mold, but it still would have been nice. Or make a clip-on piece to attach to the toy. Something. Anything!
I think this was just a nice nod which Hasbro acknowledged at a previous BotCon. I hope with future "Targetmasters" that they will stay with this approach, but since Blurr and Kup came out afterwards and didn't have this, I don't think we'll be seeing this again for a while. Which is a shame, because it'd be nice to continue revisiting the Targetmasters and Headmasters. I don't want to see non-Targetmaster and non-Headmaster versions of those characters.

Oh, and Artfire, but that'd also take some remolding to the Inferno mold.

Yeah, don't get me wrong, I do like that feature on Cyclonus. Just pointing out that, from a story standpoint, it's weird. But from an homage standpoint, it's great. The ones who NEED to have this feature, however, are Pointblank/Blanker, Crosshairs, Sureshot, Misfire, Triggerhappy, and Slugslinger.Seibertron wrote:Sabrblade wrote:...which itself make no sense since Cyclonus wasn't ever a Targetmaster in The Headmasters (from which "Target On" originates).

Man that is a gorgeous repaint. I guess I'm glad I didn't start buying Steppers back in the day, because I don't have an extra $120 now! I'll just sit and drool. For a long, long time.
