First Look at Transformers Studio Series Gamerverse Starscream

Quantum Surge wrote:I really dislike how the lines in the cockpit make it look unusually organic, like wasp anatomy as someone mentioned. But I guess it sort of kind of fits the time when Starscream possessed thr Predacon in another universe? Whatever the case the vehicle mode is messed up beyond the cockpit.

I agree with all of that. So far I have none of these gamerverse figures in my collection and I guess it'll stay that way.

Ok yeah he’s cool looking but what is that cockpit?? To me, it almost looks like a hackneyed attempt at replicating the body glow that the character model emits from the area (since it’s technically not supposed to be a cockpit). Still want him and the (hopefully) inevitable Thundercracker and Skywarp. Their mission from WFC is one of my faves of the two games.

Those missing parts (which you can see on the box render) are included in the small bag of accessories on the back according to the redditor who took the pics.

Yeah, I'm with everyone else regarding the size of that cockpit. It just looks all wrong.

Oof, that altmode is... really not great. It's like someone stretched it out or shrunk the wings. Or both.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...............

Before dismissing that new Starscream completely, I took a look at some pictures.

The vehicle mode of that Studio Series Starscream is on point with the concept art.



But to follow the concept art for the bot mode, he would have needed a fake cockpit for his chest.



Same thing for the CGI.
There's also that "wasp butt" texturing.



Finally, the cockpit is still huge on the deluxe original.



In the end, I think we find that SS-G Screamers odd looking simply because we are too used to the original deluxe. SS-G Screamers may be better than we think. Let's hope he'll also be a joy to transform without annoying bits that tends to pop off.

That Bee Rumble look pretty nice and that Bee Megs look interesting

I'm looking forward better pictures.

Has anything been said about pre-orders yet? Out of these reveals, Mohawk is the only one I'm definitely buying, the motorcycle looks a bit clunky, but overall I like him. Scorponok is a maybe, mostly because I don't have a Predacon Scorponok in my collection right now. He'd stick out like a sore thumb on my Predacon shelf, but might look okay among my Movie Decepticons. I can always head-canon him to be an upgraded version of 2007 Scorponok.

Ok, lots to get through. Hasbro gave Londoners a huge treat by giving them a first look at the first wave of 2024 Studio Series toys and Legacy Commander Magmatron. We have compiled all the latest images of these toys, which includes the reveals, Legacy United toys on display, StudionSeries tous on display, along with more photos of WFC Starscream. A list of what you'll see is below and a list of links to the sources is at the end of the article.

Man, it is sad that the best reveal is a core class Mohawk.

Here are some of my thoughts on the other reveals.

BB Rumble: Like the look of it, but seems a bit redundant.

Mohawk: Looks perfect. Way better than the 3rd party one I have and will replace it.

Wheeljack: Looks great but will need to get an upgrade kit for his guns sadly.

Scropnok: love this guy. Will need 2-3 at least.

GE Starscream: Did they not get a paint budget for this guy? The sculpt looks great but the cockpit is too big and he is very bland.

Scrapheap: Hate this. Just another figure to shelf warm with junkyard.

Megatron: Not a fan of this either. Looks very simple. hopefully he makes up for it in height.

Overall, I will still get all of them lol
