That's my concern as well. This figure has no electronics so it wont be in the upper price range. MP-49 Black Convoy was 28,000JPY, but can be had for under 20,000JPY in places. Considering his size and complexity I think he's the closest to what we can expect from Starscream. The problem is the accessories like full coronation gear and most likely a new flight stand, that could really drive up the price. We've seen what that sort of thing can do to prices with the MP Beast Wars figures so it's a pretty realistic fear.

See, I’m one of those folks. Honestly, to me Starscream having a bit of a paunch is just a really fun character detail that just goes against everything he sees himself as, a twisted irony that this guy who keeps trying to supplant the fit-and-trim-even-in-older-age Megatron has a beer gut and is likely a decade younger.

But... they weren't talking about MP-11. They were talking about this new one.Mindmaster wrote:Nemesis Maximo wrote:84everfan wrote:So apparently there are people that think Starscream v2 is just fine despite his terrible potbelly cockpit.

I too don’t mind the MP-11 crew either. Sure it has its faults but for me I love it. MP-11 Starscream was a huge milestone in my collecting (first MP I bought with my own money, first MP Decepticon) so for me to turn around and chuck it along with his cronies out the window in favor of the new style wouldn’t sit right with me and would feel like a betrayal to myself.

At best I could see light up eyes like Dinobot that can be easily contained inside his head, but I don't really see any need for that.

Just three more versions? No, i think Takara learned from Siege abd are planning on the full rainbow!
Misread that as "in water he goes Cthulhu"blackeyedprime wrote:Really needs color change plastic so we dont need three more versions of him -hot he goes blue cold he goes black and in water he goes cthru
