(NOTE: Because this is a repaint, this is not a full-blown review. This mainly covers any changes made to the mold and the color scheme, and merely compares it to Deluxe Beast Machines Jetstorm. For a review on the mold itself, read the review of Deluxe Beast Machines Jetstorm here.)

    Vehicle mode is a jet- or a jet drone, to be more precise. "Sonic Attack Jet" is merely Hasbro's fancy-schmancy name given for the jet drones in the show under Jetstorm's command. So, I will relieve Sonic Attack Jet of his corny name in this review and merely call him Jet Drone.
Jet Drone's colors just blow Deluxe Jetstorm's rather boring color scheme away. There is much more variety to Jet Drone's colors. Not only is the color scheme more show-accurate, it also catches your eye quicker. Another advantage Jet Drone has to his predecessor is that the missile launchers' problem is partially fixed. Although the missile launchers are still a tad bit sensitive if you push them out from the rear, they aren't nearly as sensitive as the launchers of Deluxe "walk into the room and my missiles launch" Jetstorm.
    Overall, a much better color scheme than Deluxe Jetstorm's, and an improved gimmick to boot. If you're deciding which deluxe jet to buy, definitely go with Sonic Att.. er, Jet Drone.


Sonic Attack Jet Bio:
FUNCTION: Aerial Combat
Controlled by the Vehicon Aerial General, Jetstorm, or by Megatron himself, the Vehicon Sonic Attack Jet is a mindless automaton that relies on sheer numbers to overpower Maximal forces. Sonic Attack Jets attack with overwhelming speed and ammunition, strafing their enemy with lethal scatter bombs and plasma lasers. Equipped with an automatic evacuation command to rescue Jetstorm when he's taken out of battle, they are otherwise harmless without his or Megatron's leadership.
