Good for confirmation that it is real. Bad for Wal-Mart. Looks like Ebay for me.

I'd refer to it as "G1-inspired", personally- it's close to G1, but I don't recall Starscream ever covered in soot in G1.

In any case, if it's exclusive to Toys R Us, I can't see the price going below $80.

I really **** hate Hasbro. Once again, they screw over the rest of the world in favour of lil ol America. Aren't they an International company?

**** em.


£30 for an American to buy, £80 for me to get off of ebay, which may or (probably won't) may not include packaging.

Strike two Hasbro, strike **** two.

the legs arent fully pulled out in that pic, that probably why he looks odd. but yeah lets hope this story is true...i'm in canada so i'm probably **** but thats what online ordering is for..lol

and if this is true its pretty impressive because a comic book store here sold the original MP starscream for nearly 200$ so 60$ ? nice

*BUZZ* Incorrect.

TFW is next to worthless when it comes to news, in terms of accuracy.

In fact, their own pictures of Masterpiece Starscream debunk the bullsh*t they just pull out of their asses.

Look here:

http://www.tfw2005.com/gallery/showphot ... 1/cat/1811

The card says
*WAL-MART EX
MASTERP


Sitting right in front of the figure. NOTE: I typed what was shown on the card as is, so no, I didn't mistype that quoted part there.

Now back to this news tid bit...right there in front of their very eyes, a picture taken by them, clearly says Wal-Mart, and these idiots go on and on about TRU? Oh yeah, real dependable source right there. =\

With that blatant ignorance, among many other things, it should be easy for people to see why I can't stand TFW.


Anywho, I'm glad he's coming and he's only like $45-50.00...I'm so there.

during the tour at 7 am, the guys all over the building said that the mp starscream was a walmart exclusive, and that earlier on there was a confusion about it being a tru exclusive, this is probably where tfw went wrong.
