Offical Images: Transformers Prime "Beast Hunters" Deluxe Starscream

We now have official images of Transformers Prime "Beast Hunters" Deluxe Wave 2's Starscream! Check out the brand new mold below.

The scheming Decepticon second-in-command Starscream looks forward to the day both the Autobots and Megatron are out of his way!

Autobots beware, because this Starscream figure is just the Decepticon to take any of them on! He’s a super-sneaky operator who wants all the power for himself, and his clenching Thunder Talon gives him the edge he needs in battle! When he needs to do recon or make a speedy escape, convert him to fighter jet mode. Keep converting him back and forth so his Autobot enemies can’t keep up!

Transformers and all related characters are trademarks of Hasbro.

[PRODUCT FEATURES]
• Powerful Starscream robot-to-vehicle warrior figure!
• Converts from robot to fighter jet mode and back!
• Clenching Thunder Talon!

Also, lol at Starscream's mistransformed wings. :lol: And too bad they didn't attach the missile pods to his arms like in the cross-sell.

Wow, that is just about as fugly as a figure can get. :SICK: So glad I got a FE Starscream.

And what is up with the alt mode? I see the shoulders sticking out in the front, and the feet sticking out in the back. Why didn't they just use the FE mold?

Well done, Hasbro. :APPLAUSE: (sarcastic clap)

:shock:

WOW.

The robot mode looks ok, but that is the single crappiest jet mode I have ever seen. Cybertron Voyager Starscream, you are no longer the record holder.

Skywarp is Black and Violet. Not Brown, Yellow, and Lavender. :roll:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I want this. This looks kick-ass.

If it were, I would seriously kill someone. Skywarp is the best seeker ever, an insult to the character like THIS atrocity would be unbearable.

This is not bad compared to waaaaaaaay worse sh*t. I wonder if the Takara version will be superior or just the same paint apps all chromed out or something. :-? :VEHI:

I don't want to end up sounding like a glitched voice box, but another easy pass for me.

I'm guessing that you need to have that claw weapon attached in jet mode? As it looks like it forms the undercarriage of the jet. Just horrible in every way.

I thought the BH Soundwave was bad.

This looks worse. :(

On the plus side the BH line is gonna save me $$$ :)

First time I've heard someone speak ill of that mold. :lol:

But yeah, possible mistransformations aside, this thing looks pretty bad, like most of the line so far. Easy pass. It would've turned out better had they based it on the FE mold. But kudos for doing something new.

The robot mode looks pretty good. I'll have to see more of the jet before I judge it. That color scheme however is :SICK:

He looks... okay. Not the normal "meh" that I normally use on figures I'm passing, but there's something about Starscream that I'm liking here. At least he wasn't the puke green we were first led to believe. :SICK:

If the "something new" is an awful paint job on a crappy re-mold of a figure that already had a good mold, they don't deserve any kudos at all.

Hmmm...I already have my voyager starscream. I think if this was repainted as someone else it would be killer. He's different enough from the FE and voyager so that he could pass for one of the other seekers (never did like how they were all identicle). Maybe a red and purple and black scheme would make a good terrorsaur. :-?

The first thing that came to my mind when I saw this pic was the Beast Wars Happy Meal Beetle.

Its not the best and its not the worst I've seen.

I've more or less liked most of the figures in BH so far, but this is just ugly as sin. I'll get him anyway because I've got the preorder for his wave in and the set of 4 is cheaper than getting the 3 individuals, but it's gonna have to really impress me in order for me to not sell it.
