Holy scr@p! I like........ :APPLAUSE:

Looks cool.

I wonder which company is making it?

I'm guessing that the stock launcers won't fit under the shoulder pads, hence the null rays. So not wanting to mess up my nicely matched Henkei Seekers getting this would mean picking up an extra Henkei 'Screamer to play dress up with. Which I'll probably do just on the grounds that this'll make a nice companion piece to the ghost version. The crown particularly looks a bit oversized from that proto shot though.

Also wondering who's producing this and whether anyone else will be stocking it, as BBTS would be my preffered route for grabbing one.

I wonder if they will include the Nullray's in different colors.. they look more like the original weapons displayed in the cartoons..

the crown looks a bit large, but it has a certain out of proportional anime feel to it.. which I kinda like.. seeing as how much of the classics/Henkei Line up are featured in Japanese Mangas..

Don't know If I'm gonna purchase this, I would wait to see what the final pics look like..

Great to see accessories for Classics line figures BUT...the prototype parts do look comically oversized for the figure. I know they're not representing a finished product so I'm reserving judgement until further development.

OK, it look good, not great, but it's not expensive either. Just gonna grab 1 set for now. I have like 3 clsc Starscreams anyways, might as well give one of them this upgrade. I love the null rays and shoulder pads, but that crown looks kinda big.

I think the sweetest thing about this is the Null Rays. With this, it will be like having a mini MP Starscream now.

Almost worth buying for the improved guns. Shame they're a bit too big.

it looks great! keeping my fingers crossed for the final product though.

"Coronation Starscream?"
"This is bad comedy"

someone had to say it.

meh, everything looks too big on him, don't really care for this.

News Credits: 12 · Thu Aug 27, 2009 8:21 am

That could be really cool, but man, those pictures don't do it any justice. The unpainted white plastic and scrap of purple fabric with frayed edges don't exactly convey a sense of royalty. They should stick with the digital models until they have something better to photograph.

Wow! This looks great! :grin:

I think...I'll pass.

Just don't care.

Very nice! Will look nice with my Universe Starscream since I touched him up already to match my MP Starscream which already HAS the Coronation Kit. :grin:

Hmm... I never new TFSource was a site sponsor I've never seen a link to them anywhere on this site?

The upgrade looks good but I'm not a big fan of Starscream and plus I do not wish to buy another Starscream to show off the kit, I'd just rather show him off as an ordinary Starscream. I kinda hope they make those null rays sold separate in different colors for for Skwarp, Thundercracker, and Thrust then someone should do a whole new design for Drige's null rays, but this all seems like it will not happen unless they make a coronation set for the rest of the seekers.

Interesting, but I'd rather see them produce a set of null rays like these for the basic Seekers, SS, SW, and TC. Maybe a different set for the secondary group too. I'd buy those-this, probably not.

Not worth it to me.

Now if they could just sell the blasters seperately, then I'd get those.

News Credits: 23 · Thu Aug 27, 2009 9:48 am

Well, I'm seeing some post here and there about the null rays, and if everyone keeps asking for them, I don't see why this company won't do them for TC, SW, and Thrust. Seems like there is a slight demand for them already. Here's to hoping!

I already have the MP coronation set, so normally this wouldn't interest me. But Starscream just looks so cute in his giant shoulder pads and crown. If I can get this thing real cheap, like free or close too it, and maybe a Universe Starscream for the same, I may get it.

But otherwise, meh.

+1

As long as they reduced the size of the null rays a little.
