Looks good so far i will buy him since he's delux he can find a place next to ROTF Thrust and Dirge then hopefully the rest might follow.

I doubt Thundercracker or Skywarp will make it to Leader Class, hope they come with unique and better head sculpts.

Oh man, I was hoping for something other than a repaint.

I had a feeling he'd show up for some reason.
But this is great! It looks like he actually gets a decent paint job this time around.

And could it be that the Seekers show up in this movie under Starscream's command? Hmm...

Hmmm, interesting!

I've already passed over deluxe Starscream, but I'll probably get this - Thundercracker's my fave G1 Seeker (the first one I had - everyone seems to stick to the 'first love'), and TC's always the last to get any release (apart from the ROTF Skywarp and Ramjet following on from 2007 Starscream and Thundercracker repaint) - Masterpiece, Classics, Alternity, etc.

Would be please if he's in the movie, but will get him either way.

Some of these deluxes seem surprisingly ok, compared to some of the horrors we saw when they started leaking out....

He looks like a decent color scheme, however Pass for me. I'd rather have seen leader classes. I can't imagine (for me anyways) owning the voyager classes of these, and then going smaller?

What can I say ? HFTD Starscream is, togethet with ROTF OP, IMO the best Leader Class Mold released so far. The product definers at Takara/Hasbro will really disappoint me if they do not reuse the mold to release Leader Class versions of Thundercker and Skywarp. It is just easy money to be made:

They just have to change the head sculpt, give them a different "voice" and choose another cybertronian tattoo pattern. Coloring them blue or purple just doesn't fit the movieverse aesthetic ...
