The wheels are solid cast, and do not roll, but I like the fact they retract - it would have been easy for Hasbro to not bother with them at all. He has retractable black landing gear, one wheel under the nose and wheels under the wings. It actually looks pretty cool, the overall shape is a fairly pointy arrowhead, with the small wings at the back. That's not to say this is a bad mode, it's just not one that would beat gravity. The reason I call this a space cruiser is that he has very small wings - I doubt he'd generate enough lift to stay airborne.

This isn't a real jet plane by any means, it's more of a space cruiser. The only part that isn't a straight colour sub is the missiles, which are solid grey (Stormjet's were red, but a transparent red). If you're keen, you'll notice that the paint job is a straight colour substitution of Stormjet's colours - white has become orange, red has become grey and the black is. The orange is easily the most dominant colour, but there's a fair bit of grey and black, which are a mix of plastic and paint. Thanks to Goktimus Prime for loaning me his Jhiaxus for this review (I have since acquired Jhiaxus).Ī predominantly orange jet fighter with grey and black highlights, Jhiaxus doesn't really resemble the Jhiaxus of the G2 comics, being a somewhat random repaint of Jetstorm, but it's nice that they finally gave this character a toy.
