Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...............
Before dismissing that new Starscream completely, I took a look at some pictures.
The vehicle mode of that Studio Series Starscream is on point with the concept art.

But to follow the concept art for the bot mode, he would have needed a fake cockpit for his chest.

Same thing for the CGI.
There's also that "wasp butt" texturing.

Finally, the cockpit is still huge on the deluxe original.

In the end, I think we find that SS-G Screamers odd looking simply because we are too used to the original deluxe. SS-G Screamers may be better than we think. Let's hope he'll also be a joy to transform without annoying bits that tends to pop off.
