@NERFDUDE87 yes but rotf jetfire has a much more complex transformation and isnt just a robot with a jet on its back rotf jetfire incorporates the jet into the robot mode and looks alot better
ROTF Leader Letfire seems to suffer from the same "jet stuck on top of robot kibble in alt mode" syndrome. Without making the toys huger than they already are, it may not be possible to do much else.
not to be offensive but as a TF fan silverbolts transformermation sucks, I'll have to agree with superspecky4eyes, it is just a robot attached to a plane, it's like animated ldr class ultra magnus, but he's a tad bit worse, I wouldn't even buy silverbolt, not to be mean or offensive
hey man, i just wanted you to know that i think you do some killer reviews. their simple, straight forward and to the point, and their very informative too. excellent job im going to subscribe.
I agree with your review completely. I bought him, and after about an hour i had to return him. I was just really unsatisfied with the figure with his granny purple chest piece, and simplistic transformation. I picked up powerglide instead, which is ok, but i sorta liked silverbolt's robot mode better
I have to agree MadSick, I got him and looking him over more closely with this review I'm thinking about returning him before I open him. I love the G1 style robot mode, but the colors are off, weird, & he doesn't have that much articulation. (Although much better than the original 1)
I think he's too big. He would have been better in the same size class as Tankor, Prowl, & SS.
I don't think you get your money's worth in this size class. It's just unnescessary extra plastic & out of scale.
cool figure this one i still need i have the other two does anyone know what the 4th ultra size universe figure will be in the uk argos catolog it says 4 to collect we all know what the first 3 are but what is the 4th ???
its just sad that hes just a jet with a robot undercarage and a robot with a folded up jet thats really sad since its an ultra... i was expecting more.... oh and his jet form is a concorde( i hope thats how you spell it) and his jet form is suposeabley to go 1000mph
Without the other Aerialbots is kinda making me wanna skip Silverbolt. That and no Superion. I sorta got used to him as part of a set back then which something is not present now. The powerglide review looks appealing. Think i might go for that one.
This is my Favorite Ultra Universe Figure! I am a Big Silverbolt Fan and this guy is fun and even better than the G1 Figure. I hope Hasbro brings us all the other Arielbots to make Universe Superion.
Scored him for $1 at a flea market!

Too bad they didn't make the rest of the aerialbots and make them for Superion..doesn't look like it'd have been that hard to do.

Actually, the jet mode is the XB-70 Valkyrie jet bomber, which was used to scare the $#!t out of the Russians, but was never actually used.

I got him for $13 at Target and I think he's totally worth that price.
... apparently, before he hit the clearance bin, he was priced at $28.99... yikes! (He's priced on their website at $26.79)

Silverbolt looks nice in robot mode but you can tell how he will transform without the instructions when he is in vehicle mode. Nice video.

Hmmm...he looks OK but he seems disappointingly simplistic for the Ultra size!

He is very much the G1 version as his body is folded up underneath the plane

if silverbolt were a deluxe, then he'd probably be worth buying. as an ultra class, he's just not worth it. nice light-up eyes, though.

it's funny, now that i think about it, why did they create a new character like Acid Storm when they could have just made an Air Raid...
perhaps that makes too much sense?
DarylPell 3 years ago
Since when is Acid Storm new?
MegaMushroom34 3 years ago
The Universe line (1.0) already has the repainted Energon Aerialbots.
VideoY3K 3 years ago
well, perhaps "new" isn't the right word...
how bout, "made up".
you know, since he is just a result of some fan's bizarre fascination with developing characters that only exist due to bad animation.
just like Sunstorm is.
why use a ficticious character, when you could make a version of an ACTUAL character?
DarylPell 3 years ago
I see what you mean, but Acid Storm did have 'some' significance to the series, unlike Sunstreaker who disappeared after the movie.
