Cool as the Cerebros and Ghost Starscream heads are... I'd be heavily reluctant to use any of them in head mode with their translucent plastic head-slot pieces. Shame too since the Cerebros head mode is the only of Spike's two modes which isn't terrifying.

Whaaaaaaaat?! It'll be fine. A bunch of stuff is made of translucent plastic and it is sturdy! Some transformer weapons, plastic forks and knives, other things I'm sure of that I can't think of currently.. ;)^

Ooh, boy those blue eyes on preceptor make a world of difference. That looks so good. Plus his Titan Master being painted is awesome. Everything else isn't different enough for me to jump on.

Because they're easy come, easy go, little high, never low.
Any way the wind blows doesn't matter to them...

Applauding all the Queen fans right here :APPLAUSE:

Ghost Starscream and Spike being translucent is indeed a bit scary, but I wouldn't worry so much about the balls, but more about the sockets inside the bodies. Any stress marks start there as I've seen.

You know, I wonder if Blitzwing will have a companion too...

Cybertronian Rhapsody

Is this a knockoff,
Or from the factory?
Bought it on ebay, I think the seller was scalping me.
Open your eyes, Robots in disguise, you see
I'm just a poor boy, can't afford takar-ara
Sixshot was a gun, now a boat.
Use to shoot, now he float.
I'd ask where's Windblade, but it doesn't really matter
to meeeeee

Yeah... I have too much time on my hands.
(Also yes I know sixshot is a sub but it just didn't flow.)

I'd just be happy for a Legends Blitzwing announcement, period. It wouldn't surprise me, though, if Takara did something similar with an extra something for Blitzwing to parallel Octane. What would be as clever as a Ghost Starscream Headmaster, though? Another thought: Blitzwing could come with a Titan Master vehicle instead, akin to Broadside, who will come with Repugnus' body.

Maybe two extra Titan Masters to mimic Animated/Thrilling 30 Blitzwing?

How did I not think of that!? That would be wonderful if Takara went to that much trouble, and heck, why wouldn't they? Fingers crossed!

Maybe it's already been pointed out, but that Starscream head is exactly like the lost Seeker design that Takara used for Ghost Starscream in the UW Grand Galavatron set. Interesting that they would continue with that design.

Mama...
Just bought a toy...
It's smaller than they said
But he's got a transforming head,
Mama, found out he's super rare
But now I've gone and thrown the box away

Mama, oooohh
I'm going to Toys R Us
If I'm not back again this time tomorrow
Carry on, carry on,
As if nothing really matters

Too many
Robots on the shelf
Thought they were real good finds,
But my wallet's aching all the time,
Goodbye, to my paycheck, it's got to go
Gotta leave food behind to buy more toys

Mama, oooh
Which one should I buy?
Who am I kidding, I'll end up with them all.

Sorry to bring this up again, but as I was closing some old tabs I had open, I happened upon this post.

But, I don't think that's the case at all. This is a new face sculpt for Starscream.

Buuuuut, is it all that new?

Transformers Unite Warriors Ghost Starscream Gallery

It leaves me wondering if, instead of sculpting a WHOLE new face, they simply took the CAD file, scaled it up, and cut the back off for retooling to make it work with a TM.

Cobro, I don't think so. While it may be an illusion due to the clear plastic, on close inspection there are very slight differences in shape and proportion, mostly on the actual face. My guess is that they modeled it off the UW head, but the replication wasn't perfect for obvious reasons.

As for plot, I'm thinking that after the end of UW, Ghostscream goes to the Legends universe and either gets his head cut off, or possesses one of the generic Nightbeat-model Headmaster suits.

Well no, the mouth and nose are farther apart for example on the TM head than on the UW one that looks more squished. But it seems to me that they went with the same sort of head design, even if redone, to follow up on the UW manga. Remember, the Legends and Unite Warriors mangas are in the same storyline whether or not it's ridiculously silly intentionally. :lol:

Since both are Ghost Starscreams too, I see him getting demoted from a full body to a head because of some treachery he pulls off or something and Unicon feels like he needs a bit of some loving punishment.
