Gasp! It's Skyfire horribly miscolored as Skywarp from the incomplete
animated print of "Fire on the Mountain" as it only appears on DVD!

I...actually kind of want this! Is that wrong?

I actually want this because it reminds me of all the "evil custom
Jetfire's" I keep seeing on ebay,botcon & fan kitbash sites.

I'm not willing to pay over $30 for this thing.

For a black repaint, I kinda like this one. However yeah, I don't see
paying more than Voyager price for it.

Thing that gets me is, is Evil Jetfire supposed to be a separate
character.. or if Jetfire was evil?

Because if the scenario where Jetfire and some Autobots have to fight
Evil Jetfire and some Decepticons, somebody is going to get confused
somehow.

He's a separate character who used to be in the same exploration team
as good version.

The really could have found a better name for him....

Yeah, I just have to find the logic in having a team mate who's name
is Evil Rob. Then I would have to find a way to be surprised that Evil
Rob would become my antagonist.

What would freak me out is if there was a guy on my team named
CounterRob and a guy on the other team named Rob but I never saw them
together in the same room.

Is that actually what they're calling him?

Why not just call him Dreadwind or something and get it over with?

Way too expensive. Be cheaper to paint your own, no? And sell bootlegs.

I'd pick him up...at regular price. Not what they're charging though. ; )

Anybody ordered from RK before? Price is surprisingly good
(even with int'l express shipping, I would think), but I tend to
exercise a bit more caution when dealing with Hong Kong-based sellers
that I don't know much about.

I've bought 1/2 of the Robotmasters line from them, and was always
satisfied.
