TFW2005 has updated with a link to an auction on Taobao.com with a picture of Movie Starscream in box. It shows his finalized head on the box. See the box picture here.

[Bluebullet]

Ugh. That box art will discourage thousands of kids to spend their allowance on a Power Ranger.

[TheMuffin]

No it won't. Only people like you. Who are a rarity.

[FracturedKoi]

Ok, Bluebullet...you're irritating me now, and that's hard to do!

Would it hurt to be a little open minded at all? Oh...my mistake, it seems that you let your mind wander and it never came back.... tsk....

[Bluebullet]

No it won't. Only people like you. Who are a rarity.

Kids will want a "Transformer", as in a changing robot with the design style of a Transformer(actual) or a Power Ranger. The kid will look in the Transformer section and say "Eeeww." and walk a few steps over to the Power Rangers.

[FracturedKoi]

...also...am I the only one having trouble finding exactly where his eyes are supposed to be? It looks more like just dark recesses in his head to me.

[Noisemaze]

Crappy pics. Why don't people learn how to use photo editing software. Jeez! If they wanna sell something in an auction they need better pics than that!

[Liege Evilmus]

its nice to get a preview of this in the box as he'll be staying in it when I get him.

[TheMuffin]

Kids will want a "Transformer", as in a changing robot with the design style of a Transformer(actual) or a Power Ranger. The kid will look in the Transformer section and say "Eeeww." and walk a few steps over to the Power Rangers.

Or more than likely they'll see Starscream on the box and go "Sweet! Mom will you buy this for me?"

You have to be seeing by now that you're pretty much the only one here. Or anywhere for that matter that thinks like you do. Other people say things about a design or toy that they don't like. You automatically say it's crap and horrible without ever giving a halfway valid and coherent reason. I'll be blunt. It makes you look insanely moronic and it probably makes others on here in your age group cringe each time you post.

[Down_Shift]

Oh ya, front paged and all that jazz.

[GetterDragun]

Ugh. That box art will discourage thousands of kids to spend their allowance on a Power Ranger.

Your sentence states that the box art will make kids not buy Power Ranger toys.

[Megatron Wolf]

Starscreams head dosent look that bad on the box. Not great but not bad. And i thought he was going to be a deluxe not a voyager.

[Megatron Wolf]

Yeah hes got a point. I think you meant

" discourage thousands of kids from buying SC and they will spend their allowance on a Power Ranger instead." or something to that effect.

[jonusjaxon]

Movie Starscream is still my least favorite. For months I've been mourning over his design. However, the design on the box isn't so bad. I'm actually relieved.

[MaikeruSama]

Its awsome looking. But WTH do you bring power rangers up nobody cares about power rangers its a transformers forum! But still screamers eyes look so cool he like im going to kill you ehehehehheehehehehheehhhe.

[Ninja Sixshot]

that close up of his face makes me sick

[bumblezzz]

bluebullet. I think kids will get a heart attack of kickassness because he looks so cool.

[NightBreaker]

Head looks sweet, jet mode looks good, (cept for the huge honking guns hanging off it). Still dread the robot mode though (Colors are kinda eh too).

[skywarp-2]

Actually i'm not sold on the whole Starscream design either, but its not because of the bugish face sculpt. it's simply because of the way in which Hasbro has brought the movie design to toy form, and urrggghh... why do we always have to have window packaging.. learn a few things from japanese packaging, will you hasbro..!!! Geez!!

Anyways, Bluebullet has a right to his opinion and to say everyone here has no views similar to his is just assanine and wrong...ahem.. moderator.. ahem...

Still, i think that if Takara/Tomy were to produce this figure in style and up to par for a masterpiece Starscream movie version, which would include maybe the large fuel tanks and a missile pack under the wing which combines and then forms the arms.. that would look much better then the huge ass Missile arm combo that sticks out like a sore thumb underneath the wing.. ugly and not realistic, and that is what they are going for in these movie designs rrriiiiggghhhtttt???

HAVE SOME IMAGINATION GUYS!!! YOUR A FREAKIN TOY COMPANY WITH PROFESSIONAL DESIGNERS...!!!

Man i wish i could win the lottery get some shars of Hasbro and make a difference.. because we all know that only money talks in this rotten world, and if your ever gonna get things that you want, then it takes money...

Or just drink LOTS of alcahol and you'll feel like a millionare after awhile..LOL

Are you saying that because some people are Mods that they are less entitled to state their opinions?

I'm all for freedom of speech and all, but there's a difference between "freedom of speech" and "acting like a jerk". Not that I'm accusing anyone in particular, I'm just saying I've seen that a lot lately.

[Collector Maximus]

Ok, Ok, I give up...It's Starscream!!!!

thats a swell way to have an opinion or attack, as a mod, I rest my case..

on the stupid thing people say.... yeah lately its been crazy so i agree with you there, but some ones gotta give a little support to the underdog once and awhile.. i generally vote for the underdog, cause he gets out numbered very quickly, and why would I come to this or any forum to talk to people who think exactly like I do..??? that would be insanely boring and no fun at all..


Its not about freedom of speech which is awesome, its more about a difference of opinion..which I think is great for people to have. keeps us from being sheep..

[Stormrider]

...also...am I the only one having trouble finding exactly where his eyes are supposed to be? It looks more like just dark recesses in his head to me.

It's not just you. Starscream has snake eyes!

[Skowl]

Yay! FINALLY some more movie toy news... the last two weeks have been so slooooow...

Looks like I'm finally starting to warm up to his design... it's definately... different. I don't think anyone will deny that!

I actually really like that head sculpt, and I'm glad the final figure has the black paint of his head-crest and the black lines on his cheek instead of the pink ones on the prototype.

Assanine. He said ass. Evrey time i see that word i have to laugh.

But to get back on topic, I wish i could win the lotto too. That way i could buy hasbro and hire Trans-Fans to make the TF toys.

Oh and take over the world.
