I concur with Sunstar. I'm not sure this is newsworthy as it is just a trivial detail.
Wait a minute ... a trivial detail? Everything we've been bitching about with the movie has been a "trivial detail". Somebody went out of their way to make this change and after all of the bitching and complaining that the fans have done, I think it's important that we left the movie folks know that we noticed this and appreciate this. Anyone who has a "meh" attitude about changes like this is part of the problem with why so many things have been changed. Each and every little thing adds up.
Okay, that sounded a touch harsh. As far as I'm concerned, the colour of the optics indicating a specific faction is a nice touch, nothing more. I don't see how that makes me part of a problem with anything, to be honest. Maybe I should have written, "It's just a trivial matter to me." If I should have typed that, then I apologise for not doing so.

it is a little harsh. especially since I was for better helms and bodies on both megs and starscream. optics, although nice to be faciton specific, were not a huge detail for me. Starscream's appeared with red, orangish, yellow, green, whitish and in animaiton errors blue. I sort of grew used to those differences. I was gunnig for the major details. Oh well.... I guess I am one of the badguys for saying it I didn't notice they were ever different.

Trivial matter to you might have been better, Leonardo. I didn't mean my post to sound like an attack. I guess I'm just thrilled that something on my long list of "trivial" things was addressed. To me, it's not trivial. As a fan, I'd be a lot happier with a lot of the changes if a lot of these "trivial" issues had been addressed rather than ignored. The small details add up significantly. I kind of wanted to make a big deal out of this to say thanks to whoever made this change. Trivial or not, after all of the bitching and complaining us fans have done I think it's important to let the movie folks see something positive when they do something right in honor of the fans this late in the game.
Sunstar, I don't think you'll ever see G1 Starscream's eyes as green or yellow in the cartoon. I'm someone who's screen captured every G1 episode that Starscream has been in ... his eyes are always red or maybe on the odd occassion blue.

Leonardo wrote:The Terminator had red eyes, also (well, red pupils on black). Maybe there's a thematic link there? Generally, though, there is a lot of evil or bad characters that have red eyes. It's often used in fiction.
