Then maybe wait for the G1 repaint?

It'll happen, you know it.

A Peaugh review is one of the indicators that a toy is on the way! I can't wait!

I saw the "July" cards beneath the Prime toys in those BotCon pictures and feel teased! I hope it's not too many more months until they release. I have my money set aside for wave 1. Fall is gonna be a good time between the Prime figures and the Henkei Hot Rod re-release.

He looks better than in the initial pics from Hasbro, & even better than how he looks in the cartoon (!).

I'm really looking forward to this line.

Dont get me wrong....i like the design so much that i will get this version n the G1 repaint if they make one.

What funny i jus notice on the 2nd time i watch the review is that SS got high heels this time around...lol

words can not express how much i want these toys! 0_0

man, seeing him and classic starscream next to movie starscream sure makes movie starscream look pretty stupid. Redemption for Starscream!

Watch the Japanese version get released with a red forehead crest.

And, is it just me, or does this Starscream have at least 24 points of articulation?!!

Does he? lets see..

Neck
Shoulders x2
Elbows x2 (including both hor. and ver.)
Wrist x4
Waist
Hip x2
Knee x2
Ankle x2 (plus some extra bit of articulation due to transformation.
Then theres the wing poseability.
It'd be sweet if you can use the chest portion to lean forward like it was used in transformation. I like that extra bit of movement (just like on ROTF lockdown) to give him a hunched over creepiness.

My only real gripe is the chunkiness of the waist and where it is in jet mode. hmm

I agree. This is a great looking figure, and the engineering is great, but he's essentially a jet sitting on the robot waist and legs. Not very aerodynamic.

Still, it is a great figure. I will wait and see what the voyager-sized version looks like. Hopefully it will have the size to better blend the legs into the jet mode. If the voyager version looks even better than this deluxe version, I will buy him as soon as I see him.

2. if i take RC's head and put it on ss deluxes body and give both a new paint job do you guys think it would look like a slipstream?

I think this is a great idea. I do think this deluxe Starscream has the "curves" to pass as a fembot. I may try that myself.

Thanks for the idea!

Edit: Oh, and I forgot about the "high heel" feet! Lol. Yes, this would make a perfect fembot.

There was some pictures shown of voyager Starscream and Optimus Prime at one of the panels at Botcon but they were not released and no one was allowed to take pics.

Meee Grimlock say: This is AWESOME figure!

Near to 1:1 in details to the Transformers Prime Cartoon. Ok pals, where can Grimlock order a full dozen of this fantastic Starscream Toy? Meee Grimlock want to play with this NOW. Grimlock just canceled the preorder of "My little Pony Starscream".

Grimlock like Transformers Prime Toys! Grimlock is in love!

Meee Grimlock cannot wait to more figures of this toyline. Want Arcee, Wheeljack and Cliffjumper (but please no remold/repaint of another bumblebee). This would be delicious!

He looks incredible! Will def be getting this one

I'm stoked about this line, it's interpretation of the characters is very intriguing. Toys seem to match, very cool...

Wish I were at Comic-con.

starwarrior1227 wrote:why don't you have a starscream yet MindVVipe?

anyway, i couldn't agree more with all of you. this will be a truely awesome and possibly his absolute best reprecentation since generations in the deluxe lines.

my only qs are 1. how well does this figure and the voyager ss compare to the rest of the line.
2. if i take RC's head and but it on ss deluxes body and give both a new paint job do you guys think it would look like a slipstream?

Ah amazing idea...

Seein this sold me on it for sure. Looking foward to megatron!!!!

Stoked about any f-16 tfs they wanna put out though I'll take the f-35 too!~

What they did with the back kibble was amazing. Totally unnecessary for kids, but for those of us looking at the engineering and accuracy of the toy, that was GOLD.

Btw, leader movie Starscream can do that pose too. That's very nearly what I had mine in for some time (but I put the hand back more).

And Movie Megs (jet) did heels first folks, LOL.

ANYWAY, loving the figure. Depending on how big the line is, I may collect them. Otherwise, I don't really want/need Bee, Prime, and maybe Megatron. Highly anticipating Arcee and any other characters they want to do.

Very cool figure! But personally, I hope they make a toy for Knock Out. He is definitely my favorite character in the series thus far.

Knock-Out is very cool! His color, design, and personality are all cool. I'd love a toy of him and Breakdown. Such awesome Decepticons! For once I am in love with the bad guys.
