I agree...best toy ever made! I had the old Jetfire from when I was a kid but the others I've accumulated over the last 9 months thanks to eBay LOL
I used to have the old VF-1S Roy Fokker version as a glue/paint model when I was a kid but that is long gone. I also had an old VF Alpha Fighter (blue) as a kid but it broke way back then and disappeared. I kept the Jetfire because, like you said, best toy ever...quality and functionality.
