Thanks to Nemesis Primal for posting this information at the Energon Pub message board:

Hi all, just got back from Burger King in Owings Mills (Maryland) ...

I bought JETFIRE. He was worth the dollar... Probably not much more than that, though.

The Care Bear is the yellow one (SUNSHINE BEAR), if anyone's curious.

Burger King has their webpage up for the current toy promo, right here...

Jetfire is ... as you'd expect. His cockpit pulls out before folding down, but other than that, no surprises, detachable tail is still a put-off.

On the plus side, he's fairly large for a kid's meal TF, and reasonbly show-accurate for one as well.

Worth noting is that the instructions have words to go with the pictures, somethign which McDonalds didn't do for Armada, and which Hasbro hasn't done since Beast Machines.

Also, the web page has pics of the toys, along with the boxart and a quote for each of the four TFs.

Here they are, copied verbatim, for those of you who don't feel like going to the site yourself and waiting for the Flash file to load.

Jetfire: "You can run but you can't hide!"
Optimus Prime: "The future of Cybertron lies with us."
Megatron: "With the power of the Cyber Planet Keys the Universe will be mine!"

Red Alert: "We must respect the customs of our host planet."
