The repaints themselves are pretty well exactly what was expected, and thus not terribly exciting... but those new weapons might just be worth the purchase on all four.

Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't we hear that some of these are slated for a Wal-Mart exclusive set release in the fall? I know Motorbreath was one that was mentioned and would be called Motormaster. I even think they were coming with their weapons too.

That's right. Thundercracker and Motorbreath will be included in an upcoming Walmart exclusive gift set with repaints of RtS Laser Prime and Jazz. Don't expect name changes however, as "Motormaster" has been out of Hasbro's reach for years.
The resident Rewind... well, half of one
- Jelze Bunnycat =:3
Looking for: - TR Furos (Hardhead's head) and Crashbash (lost him ) - PotP Punch head - TR Galvatron right arm (the gun one) - CW Brake-Neck/UW Wildrider, CW Offroad - TR Twinferno & Grotusque - Greenlight, Lancer and PotP Elita-1 (plus repro Victorion hands and feet?)

Ah, I'd completely forgotten about that. The previously unreleased G2 Combat Hero Prime deco and the presumably G2 inspired Jazz deco.
Old fasioned games! And new fashioned friends! Come on everybody this is Ta-ble Flip!
I just picked up a Thundercracker off eBay. Some auction had 10 before I went to bed. I woke up this morning all they were all sold. It only cost me 13 compared to the 40+ for the Takara version. Now just need Skywarp.
are these from some sorta kiddie line or something? they look super cheap and simple like some happy meal toy or something. i have the original generations Starscream and he looks nothing like that Thundercracker.

I take you've never heard of Legends before, or as they're currently called Cyberverse Legion Class. Reveal the Shield had 6 of them, 5 new molds and a repaint:

Those "Happy Meal toys" are repaints of the first 4.
alrighty, so they are a different toyline so thats good to know. its just that the packaging looks exactly like the one my starscream from a few years back came in. so i thought they just dropped 10 notches in quality for no reason. lol

You must have Universe 2008 Starscream then. Generations and Universe share roughly the same style and colors:
