^ cool man, thanks for the info.
think i'll stick with just the walmart version. what did the jap version run you from fan2fan if you don't mind me asking.
i couldn't afford one anyways because i still have mp-06 to pick up

Well.. pre-ordering through bbts was $99 if I'm correct pre-ordering the jap version through f2f was $79. all in all it's cheaper for me to get the jap version but I just want to make sure I get both.. because they're.. well different.

oh. .and i think dr. Arkeville has a proper paintjob this time (or was he with skywarp in human colors?)

^ not sure, honestly, i don't think he was even painted in any of the mp-06 pics i've seen.

i would find it hard for takara to release that toy in any other line.
i could be wrong, not quite sure how they marketted the 20th ann dvd prime..
enlighten me someone

Takara will release USA edition Starscream
which is:
A G1 correctly colored MP Starscream,
minus the "weathered" effect that the wal*mart version has.

I ordered both because I think the wal*mart version will look great in jet mode (with the weathering and the black markings near the vulcan canon nozzle etc.) and the jap version to display in bot mode.

I pre-ordered the wal*mart version through BBTS, I've ordered the jap. version through fan2fan.

USA Edition Masterpiece Starscream

* To have TV accurate coloring.
Comes in original US packaging
Weathering & Marking expected to be different from US released version

Do you have link to that BBTS Preorder? I can't find anything on their site for the Wal-Mart version.

Sweetness, thanks

My searches still aren't finding that item on BBTS, I must not be using the Al Gore approved version of the Internet today.

I can only find that link if I sacrifice three elder squirrels to the god of Radeon (who has a shrine of old videocard PCB's handily located next to my desk) and drink the menstrual blood of a virgin.. at midnight exactly.. dressed up as a KFC employee.

Wow, 16 differant herbs and spices?! That is luxury! :shock:

I bet after both Starscreams come out, there will be comparisons as to which is "better."

But of course! And also discussions on which one can kick your dad's ass, and which one looks better in heels, etc...

by **neliz** » Wed Aug 15, 2007 5:44 pm
