Additional Looks at Transformers Prime First Edition Deluxe Starscream

Don't care what people say. The Deluxe looks incredible

This Starsrceam mold is growing on me. After seeing some really good poses in the videos from Peaugh and Vangelis that this figure can pull off that are really accurate to the character itself, i might just pick this figure up.

I just can't stand the legs though!! It's pretty close to a deal breaker for me. Those feet are just wretched to me.

Megs is an easy pass. They really have to start making better alt modes for Megatron.

i dont see what peoples fascination with this guy is, the transformation looks good and the articulation looks great but when i see him starscream isnt what comes to mind and the alt mode is half assed. Would be good for kit bashing though.

These are the second set on images where his spine/chest is curved inward... is his back impossible to make straight(er)?

Yep.

It is extremely feminine for some reason, I also get an Ed Grimmly vibe from this pic:

Yeah this Screamer just doesn't fly dare I say. I think it's great that his alt mode is a F-16 like Falcon-ish. But like most have said there seems to be a obvious fem vibe going on and I hate open hands on any TF but here they gave him these Nosferatu like hands...wtf?!

I wanted this figure in the first place, but now I see he's capable of facepalming?

WANT. NOW.

Every time I see pictures of all the Prime toys, I'm continually impressed. The engineering is simply astounding; the show accuracy in both modes is probably the best we've had so far. And I know I wasn't the only one who saw the show when it first came out and thought to myself "yeah they look great, but how the heck are they going to turn that into plastic?"

Bravo, Hasbro. My hat goes off to you.

I still stand by what I've said in previous posts though, and as amazing as it all looks the aesthetic just isn't for me. Oh well, it's just one more set for someone else to pick up

That's the same thing we said about Animated, too, and they didn't do a bad job with those at all.

One thing about the skinny body...I tend to view it as the kind of physique that slithers and sneaks, and is likely to backstab or hide in the shadows waiting to pounce, complete with claws. I think the body suits his personality well. I can't tell if they gave him the smirk..if they have, he'd be perfect. I second the "bravo". Waiting on the SDCC and NYCC exclusives to arrive...the pics made me cave.
