Leave it to Dead Metal to have the word 'Pronz' in his signature.

Plus, I'm skeptical of Starscream being a remold. I think he may well be a new toy from ground up. Sure he's just as ugly, but he comes from the same source material.
And as far as accessory packs, that would be neat, as has been lamented for decades, but they have to re-release each character in some form for this movie for all the kids that couldn't afford to buy them all during the run of the last movie.

I don't know-if you're talking about the pictures of the ROTF SS posted today, it looks a heck of a lot like the other voyager mold to me with painted details and different head. I'm thinking that's going to be the same but there may be a leader somewhere in the pipeline.

No Caelus is right about it being a new mold. The chest is wider and has that new mech alive feature when you turn Starscream's head. Also it lacks the giant missile launching arms.
Also the Jet mode actually looks like a F-22 compared to the previous release.

I thought it was a massive retool at first. Changed 'hands', changed fins, changed nose, even the mech-alive feature I could imagine being retro-engineered in place.
But the lack of visible arms in jet mode is what cinched it for me.
It's a shame that his jet mode looks so much better while his robot mode actually looks worse (though the hands are an improvement).
