The box Art is not complete obviously because the jets aren't completed yet BUT once they are the appropriate jet will be inserted in replacement of the Skystriker II image. That's there just for placement.
YES these will come complete with boxes ;-)
They're coming for theirs....... prepare yourselves.

What's next?
I guess the Joint Strike Fighter?

I guess the Joint Strike Fighter?  | Well they dont make an F-15, I cant get my hands on 3 SU-27's, BUT Starscream was featured as an F-22 in the movies and all 3 in the comics.
So for a modern jet with a classic look we've gone to the F-22 for ONLY these 3 classics.
I assume that means you don't like it. Personally I never liked them as F-14's.... that's reserved for Jetfire.

I guess they could jump around jet model wise? BB went from a '70s Camaro to a new one? (and actually from a VW Bug, to a Camro, and then a new Camaro?  )

I had not thought about that? I bet there's some slick TF fan somewhere making a Jetfire out of a new Skystriker right now!

BUT in order to do it right I have to make his thrusters that are on his back. I WILL have a Jetfire sooner or later out of an F-14 Skystriker.

Hey I dunno BUT I absolutely LOVE BB as a kick ass Camaro. I was never a fan of VW Beetles, so as a kid I didn't like him lol. Now however I love him!! I think he's my favorite Autobot in present times. :-)
The F-22 Raptors are sick jets, they've got attitude written all over them, and since Starscream was an F-22 in the movie AND all 3 are F-22's in the comics I went that route. It's different, everyone's doing the F-14 now cause Hasbro made the SDCC Starscream that way. Remember Slywarp in particular is extremely fast, has cloaking capability, is a master marksman, and has a murderous meanstreak in him. He's Starscream's cousin so I'd think it safe to assume they'd take similar forms. Disregard Skywarp's picture in jet form... the write up you are about to read is from the journal of an under cover Autobot in some more recent rendition of the Transformers..... BUT this is the Skywarp I must say is my favorite Decepticon to date.
In fact here's an undercover autobot's thoughts on Skywarp.....
What better jet then the F-22!? ;-)

I've been searching for another exosquad valkyrie (I know I butchered that) fighter to paint up like Jetfire. I have one, but I want to have it intact, and repain a second one. Just my own weird collecting peccadillo...
Looks good, man. Can't wait to see more.

Looks good, man. Can't wait to see more. | Thanks Zoomie! All 3 original Seekers are F-22's in the comics and also have different markings.
So I'm combining the old with the new. They'll have the classic G1 color scheme and markings on an updated airframe.
IF THEY EVER MAKE AN F-15 you can bet I'll make accurate G1 Joe Tramnsformers Crossovers out of them.
