Fred's Variants

Matshurio units came(more or less) with lined canopies. In addition, the wing backpack has a raised circle with three indents in the lower right-hand corner. On Bandai, the canopies are smooth,

They're both right.

They were both made by Bandai and official.

The Jetfire mold was taken from a Bandai toyline in which they were called Valkayre. The first few Jetfire's released in Transformer packaging still had some of the Valkayre markings.

The Matshurio Jetfire is more sought after and therefor worth more.
