The only true Starscream is Animated Starscream. This statement is a war by itself |

The only true Starcream is a dead Ghost Starscream.
(Poor old Live Action Starcream, that millions were spent to create, hasn't had a mention yet).

It's a cracking design, that doesn't much feel like a Starscream.

He had zero personality in the first film.
Then the books and comics surrounding it made him the dude who inherited the decepticons after Megatron yeeted himself into icy oblivion, and actually did an extremely good job at it.
Then RotF cam around and threw that into the trash by misunderstanding G1 starscream so badly that he just ended up being a sniveling sycophant as his sole personality trait.
I hated the design at first, but a lot of that was probably poisoned by how horrible his first toy was.
Now I'd not mind seeing it repurposed as a new character.

This is the chest (only actually detailed) that should have been on ER Starscream.
Give it actual sculpted details, put the proper tail kibble back on it's legs, an a not ugly head, and I'd like this out of Generations.
But not MP.

Why are they not showing any pictures of this transformer's transformed mode?

It's more the paintjob that I'd be interested in seeing. But still, that backpack doesn't look as bad as some recent MPs.

Why are they not showing any pictures of this transformer's transformed mode? Current pics are just prototype. Pieces probably don't align quite right with all those sharp edges. |

He does look like he's wearing a big pair of pants that are pulled up really high.  |

I really don't like the shoulder intakes being pushed forward.
It's a really bad design choice.

Post by Llama God on Sept 27, 2020 8:25:10 GMT
It looks like they're hinged though, as with the previous MPs, so you should be able to have them further back from the looks of things.
But yeah. This looks good in the grey. A really nice looking figure. Except. EXCEPT...
It's got a false cockpit in robot mode.
I'd been fooled by this initially, but after looking closer at the photos... Nope. It's a fake. Which immediately downgrades this from "masterpiece" to "needlessly expensive figure". Oh well. Saves me some money anyway.
