Check out the comparisons between the original G2 toy and the TFSS 3.0 version in the Seibertron galleries. Can someone from the TFCC post a picture of the original G2 sample they used to make the color choices for the new TFSS 3.0 version? Maybe they're seeing something I'm missing?
Late last night before the crash, I had posted some images for comparisons. The jetpack thing that makes the sounds on the original toy photographs as a more orange color than pink color, but the torso of G2 Starscream is definitely a pinkish color. I put together the following images for comparisons last night. If anyone who has both figures can confirm that I got these colors pretty close, I'd appreciate it just so we have some others confirming it. I'm OK with the orangish color that was used, but would have prefered it to have been closer to the original. However, it still looks good.
Lighting, camera settings, color adjustments in your monitor, saturation with the camera settings and in post processing (as well as your monitor), and a few other things all wreak havoc on capturing the colors of the original G2 Starscream. It's just obnoxious 90s colors that are often hard to replicate, whereas the orange used on Club G2 Starscream is much easier to photograph. If you look through the original G2 Starscream's gallery, you'll see that the colors are inconsistent throughout, though they appear much more consistent in the Club G2 Starscream's gallery.
