JETFIRE ( Commander ) War for Cybertron SIEGE

In ritardo di qualche anno, finalmente ho recuperato il primo Commander Generations, uscito per War for Cybertron Siege, ovvero il mitico JETFIRE, realizzato appunto più che degnamente in una classe pensata per lui e per altri robot semi colossali, anche se ai tempi lo trovai un po' esagerato, così grande rispetto al resto dei vari Voyager e Leader, ma effettivamente la stazza è quella se guardiamo le scale ufficiali storiche dei settei dei cartoni.

Aquila è un personaggio iconicissimo e particolare sin dalla G1, col giocattolo riciclato dai jet Valkiriye di Macross della Bandai, ma poi apparso nel cartone con un aspetto ampiamente ridisegnato ( e pure col nome cambiato in Skyfire ) proprio per non pubblicizzare indirettamente in Giappone i modelli di una rivale della Takara, mentre la sua storia di amico di Starscream e Decepticon temporaneo sono rimaste scolpite nella roccia, anche se nelle successive apparizioni in tv veniva usato più come autobus volante che per le sue doti di scienziato o colosso.

A parte il Masterpiece uscito recentemente, questo Commander è stato decisamente il Jetfire definitivo, dopo alcuni esperimenti sempre in stile Generations come il Classic Voyager del 2007 o il Leader GenT30, che però ibridavano un po' elementi del giocattolo rispetto al design del cartone. Ma il Siege si presenta invece finalmente proprio com'era lo Skyfire in tv, ma anche graziato da numerosi dettagli scolpiti nello stile della parte iniziale della trilogia WfC, ma per fortuna neanche TROPPI dettagli come appunto alcuni Siege o, ari-per-fortuna, senza le varie sporcature da danni di battaglia.

Dicevo, questo Jetfire è quindi sputato al settei del cartone, e finalmente con il cavolo di zainone rosso unito e non separato in due moduli come nelle versioni Generations precedenti, le ali sempre verso l'alto ma non così lunghe, e come unica licenza estetica rispetto al design dei cartoni, direi solo i piedi che non sono così lisci ed interamente grigi.

Ottimamente snodato, con tanto di rotazione del bacino ( anche se solo di pochi gradi, ma vista la trasformazione direi che è lo stesso tanta roba ), rotazione dei polsi e possibilità di alzare la testa, come gimmick del robot abbiamo i fori base sparsi nel corpo nello stile dei WfC, anche se in un colosso tale quasi non si notano (!), il simbolo di fazione al centro del petto che può ruotare e cambiare da Autobot a Decepticon, citando ovviamente il suo cambio di alleanza nello storico episodio del 1984 "Fire in the Sky" ( ma anche le trame viste nel cartone recente su Netflix di Siege ), e la particolarità di poter aprire i pugni, o meglio, le sole 4 dita opposte al pollice, facendo sparire automaticamente il foro per impugnare le armi!

Ed a proposito di queste, qui si apre un capitolo a parte, dato che il nostro parte con un cannone bicanna come si vedeva nei cartoni, salvo poi scoprire che il fucilone si separa in due armi distinte, seguite poi da due scudi con doppie bocche di fuoco ( separabili dagli scudi ) solitamente posizionabili sugli avambracci, due laser piccoli che si sistemano sulle punte delle ali (!) tramite delle spine a scomparsa, e due altri laser più lunghi che possono agganciarsi ai lati dello zainone rosso, ma ovviamente sono sistemazioni indicative.

Completa il quadro una pettorina aggiuntiva che si aggancia al petto tramite due pannellini ripiegabili in questo, e che riesce a contenere a sua volta una maschera ( nascosta in un pannello aprible dell'accessorio ) con visore e placca della bocca, che fa il paio con la colorazione della pettorina nera e rossa e richiama il look originale del famigerato giocattolo originale dell'85.

Per quanto sia tanta roba a livello di giocabilità, anche qui inizialmente ho trovato questo omaggio al modellino originale un po' povero, con la maschera senza i laser doppi sulle orecchie, e lo zainone che resta fisso e non si sdoppia, per dirne un paio, ma poi effettivamente, come detto sopra, i precedenti Jetfire Generations avevano già omaggiato ampiamente il giocattolo ex-Valkirye, quindi è anche giusto che questo Commander un po' brilli di luce propria, anche se magari non costava nulla colorare di rosso gli scudi sulle braccia, giusto per.

O anche, magari i laser doppi sulle orecchie erano poco pratici, ma li si poteva mimare mettendoci delle armi lì accanto, e via così... ma forse, ci sta pure il discorso che a prescindere non possono fare un Jetfire che somigli TROPPO al Valkirye Bandai anche per un discorso di copyright, e quindi amen. ^^'

Che poi la maschera a guardar bene non è così sputata a quella ben più anonima del solito Valkirye, con un visore e mascherina più delineati e la fronte più alta, quini, again, prendiamola come una citazione alla larga giusto per aggiungere un po' di materiale al giocattolone già generoso di suo.

La TRASFORMAZIONE è per fortuna semplice per un giocattolone così, e blandamente ispirata al famigerato Valkyrie ma più a come si intuiva che avvenisse nel cartone, ovvero con le gambe che si ritraggono inglobando le cosce, previo aver prima aperto e ribaltato i panelli interni verso i polpacci, in modo da far uscire i reattori supplementari che vanno ad agganciarsi a quelli dello zaino che si allunga verso il basso / indietro, mentre i pugni si ritraggono negli avambracci e questi inglobano parte dei gomiti, con le braccia che vanno a finire nel vuoto del torso formatosi dopo aver sollevato quella che diventa la punta del jet, con i pannelli laterali del petto che si dispongono lateralmente a questa, mentre la testa sparisce all'interno della punta del modulone rosso superiore! Infine, non dimentichiamoci delle ali che si abbassano e si dispiegano.

Il JET futuristico / alieno che si vedeva nei cartoni è finalmente riprodotto fedelmente ( ok, ora c'è pure il MP, ma facciamo finta di essere tornati a 5 anni fa, dai ^^' ), e sopratutto qui si fa che si fa sentire la sua stazza, che ovviamente non è paragonabile a certe licenze visive che si prendevano nei cartoni animati, dove il nostro ospitava tranquillamente parecchi Autobot, ma almeno a pari di altri velivoli da la sua figurona.

Unica errore estetico come somiglianza al velivolo del cartone sono i pannelli grigi sui moduli ai lati del muso, che sono rivolti verso avanti invece che verso indietro, ma interessante la gimmick di poter aprire la cabina di pilotaggio ( previo il dover piegare il muso, vabbè ) rivelando un modulo estraibile che cita quello che si vede mentre viene scongelato da Wheeljack in "Fire on the Mountain", anche se a me ricorda pure un po' anche il modulo cerebrale dei Transformers che viene rivelato nell'albo Marvel 10, quello prima della sua comparsa.

Tolto il modulo, comunque, c'è posto per un pilota Titan / Prime Master ( ricordiamoci che Siege era successiva proprio a PotP ), così come ci sono pure un paio di altri posti nel modulone rosso superiore, il che è bene che sarebbe stato un peccato lasciar non usato quel popò di spazio, ma è scomodissimo accedervi, dato che bisogna sollevare tutto il pezzo superiore che slitta e che sarebbe agganciato ai propulsori delle gambe. ^^'''

( Queste gimmick non sono manco citate nelle istruzioni, poi... )

Oltre a poter sistemare tutte le armi sulla sola piastra pettorale e quindi posizionarla sul foro sopra il modulone rosso, altre gimmick interessanti sono gli ovvi carrelli retrattili e le 4 impugnature che spuntano, per potervi aggrappare dei robot al di sotto: un paio sono nascosti sotto i polsi di Jetfire, mentre l'altro paio sono addirittura mimetizzate nelle decorazioni rosse delle anche!!

Inutile dire che solo per la stazza il nostro velivolo qui meriterebbe, ma di sicuro tutte queste gimmick grasso che cola, e non dimentichiamoci degli effetti di sparo ed esplosione aggiuntive che accompagnano i Battle Master e i vari Commander e Titan di WfC.

Ah, quasi dimenticavo: tutti gli accessori / armi possono ovviamente disporsi come si preferisce nel jet...

...oppure si uniscono in unico modulone che va a finire sopra il velivolo.

Insomma, peccato solo per il poco intuitivo uso delle cabine di pilotaggio, e magari per il jet un po' vuoto e poco compatto visto da sotto, ma direi che sono davvero piccolezze in confronto a ciò che ha da offrire questo enorme giocattolone, che ai tempi un po' maledii per la sua stazza esagerata ma che ora potrebbe benissimo passare per un surrogato di Masterpiece!

It’s been half a week after New York Toy Fair 2019 and our heads are still spinning, as the annual exhibition saw toy companies give us their best shot as always. Hasbro came out swinging with debuts of their Overwatch and Power Rangers lines, and plenty of Transformers fun that spells certain but sweet doom for our bank accounts in the year to come. Now we get to recap the goodness with some sharp official images from Hasbro!

WAR FOR CYBERTRON: SIEGE

The first part of the new trilogy rolls on with a head full of steam, as new releases at all the price points bring new soldiers for both sides of the War for Cybertron.

All-new character Smashdown brings the pain as a minotaur/battle hammer Battle Master. This also marks the Siege debut of Sideswipe retool Red Alert, and Springer, who gets a Voyager figure updating his classic triple-changer design. Fan-voted characters Mirage and Impactor get new Deluxe figures, with Impactor receiving mainline attention for the first time since the Fall of Cybertron Generations line (and an all-new mold for the first time ever).

Cybertron‘s fan-favorite Optimus Prime design gets featured as a “Galaxy Upgrade” for Optimus Prime, and the towering Skyfire Jetfire joins the fray with tons of accessories and features, including a swivel plate that lets you tell the story of his switching sides. Finally for the Autobots, the planner of the Decepticons’ obsolescence hits, as 2019’s Titan Class figure Omega Supreme arrives alongside his legendary Micromaster partner Countdown.

Then the tides of war shift — after a strong early showing, the Decepticons get a handful of reinforcements in the person of Thundercracker, a retool of Cybertronian tetrajet Starscream, and Caliburst, a Battle Master that’s perfect for arming your Titans Return Slugslinger or any ‘con who wants a little extra fireblast firepower. Seems like a short roster for the ‘cons… but Hasbro’s official product listings for these assortments mention an as-yet unseen Decepticon Barricade!

A set of 35th anniversary exclusives was also on the show floor — cel-shaded redecos of Siege Optimus and Megatron, and of Siege Prowl (Bluestreak) and Soundwave (Soundblaster). Here’s hoping we get a good look at those soon!

A Hasbro Pulse/Gamestop/EB Games exclusive, Ectrotron comes with a proton pack and a ghostly translucent Slimer, and will also be featured in a five-issue TF/GB crossover comic by IDW.

STUDIO SERIES

Not to be outdone, the Transformers film franchise continues to celebrate its first decade and its most recent success with Travis Knight’s 2018 Bumblebee movie. Studio Series continues to spotlight characters and designs from the franchise’s six films.

Deluxe class Decepticon Hightower is the next Revenge of the Fallen Constructicon featured, all leading to the assembly of the immense Devastator. 2011’s Dark of the Moon gets some love in the form of a Leader Class Optimus Prime, a Voyager retool sporting a full trailer that turns into his armory and jetwing flight tech from that film. 2014’s Age of Extinction gets two figures announced this round, with the first Generations-style figure of Cybertronic helicopter Autobot Drift, and a KSI Boss redecoed from TLK Nitro Zeus.

The most recent of the films isn’t left out either, as announcements for Toy Fair week showed off Bumblebee‘s muscle-car mode Dropkick and classic semi truck Voyager Optimus Prime.
