That tetris moment was pure gold. Also, the jointing reminds me of those old mega-block robots they used to do.

urg.. i really considered buying those out of some stupid completest mentality back in the day.... glad i didnt. ( the real armada toys were bad enoug )

I had Jetfire when they first came out. Being 11 years old, I couldn't tell a jivey toy from a good one.

Horrible, horrible toys, couldn't wait to see what your take on them would be. For some reason, I had some kind of compulsion to buy them at the time. Thank God I got someone to buy the lot of them on eBay a year or so ago, and I got a halfway decent price.

(edit: typo)

Out of curiosity, how was the tetris sequence done?

I'm curious about that too. That was a great bit, because initially I thought it was just a gameplay clip to justify the analogy, when it turned out that it was building the figure, well, that was pretty damn cool.
