Rare Movie yoyager Starscream, Toshiba HD-DVD special Red Vardia edition! Unboxing and review.
Posted: Thu Oct 13, 2016 9:03 pmWell well well, what do I have here?
My first ever package coming from Mandrake.
Let's not beat around the bush and see what's inside.
IT'S BUBBLE WRAP! I FREAKING LOVE BUBBLE WRAP!
Oh there's something else in this. And I have the feeling this is going to be awesome.
HELL YEAH, MY HOLY GRAIL! The Rare Movie yoyager Starscream, Toshiba HD-DVD special Red Vardia edition!
It's the exact same box as the original american release. Except for some added stickers like the LIMITED one.
This box is in very great condition.
No blemishes, almost perfect. BTW, Mandrake ALWAYS say "box/packaging damaged" to avoid prissy customers.
This toy is worth SO MUCH sealed. Between 250$ or even 300$!
So, what should I do?
Did you even had to ask?
Careful, careful... I must preserve that beautiful but hard to open box...
...
Aw, screw it.
There, you MOFO, it's OPEN!
Nail clippers are very useful against those annoying tie-wraps.
Pinkstram is FREE!
This is the only things from the box that I'll keep.
Adios box! Go to your rightful place into the recycling bag!
(My cats say hi. =^^=)
Many hate that mold, especially because of the THICK jet mode. I don't care. I always liked it for some reasons.
It does have unique tampographs.
I really LOVE that vehicle mode. Despite the obvious flaws. And it's a blast to transform. That auto-morph gimmich is very well done.
As always, the bot mode is stocky but powerful looking. The only true flaw are the over sensitive finger-missilles that launch all the time, everytime.
The HD-DVD logo is still visible, but for some odd reasons, no
anywhere.
KILLER light-piping!
Starscream can take some dynamic poses too.
How much did it cost on Mandrake? 200$? 300$?
How about around 126$CAN? SHIPPED!
Pinkstream deserves a special place in my collection. I'm really glad that I have it! And thanks to shajaki for the hint! It's because of his keen eyes that I was able to find it for so cheap. Thanks again, dude!

In a joint venture by Paramount Home Entertainment Japan and electronics giant Toshiba, Starscream Vardia Red Model is an exclusive redeco of Voyager Starscream only available with Toshiba's new Vardia RD-A301 HD DVD recorder. The package also comes with an HD-DVD copy of Transformers, five HD DVD-R and five DVD-R discs.
Starscream Vardia Red Model is extremely red, with some gold, a little black and Toshiba Vardia markings on his hull. With the player costing 100,000 yen at the time, this may be the most expensive Transformers exclusive to be released in relatively large quantities.
