Windblade though...ech. What a sad sack of crap. The basic mold actually looks alright, but the lack of wrist articulation really hurts her and the paintjob is just pathetic. Hopefully the TAV release will give the girl a makeover, though the arms are probably gonna need Shapeways replacements.

Windblade toys never not look horrible. A shame on it's own, but then they're so danged persistent about promoting the character it looks even worse when they cheap out.

So to sum up...
-G1 Starscream body in general
-Animated Starscream alt-mode
-1986 Movie Coronation shoulders
-TFP Starscream head
How many more references could you possibly put in? At this point they'd have to give him cyber key powers, a birdface and the ability to combine with G2 Dreadwing if they wanted to reference more screamers.

Why not make him intangible (Energon), make him a giant (Cybertron/Galaxyforce), give him wheels (Alternity), and give him mini-con pegs? And make him a Pretender? And um.. oh make him an Action Master. And uh... what else am I missing?
