More images of Deluxe Crankcase and Starscream

At this point you may actually be getting tired of seeing new images of these guys, but here's a few more! ThisTaobao auction has some nice clear images of of Crankcase in in both modes, and this one gives us some nice shots of Starscream. As usual there is no way to know at this point if these are the correct transformations.

It's interesting that every set of photos so far has positioned the scissors differently.

Probably because all these guys are just randomly guessing how they actually go.

Right, I'm just surprised that no two made the same guess.

There's also a new auction for Megatron, as well. Looks like we've got better images of both modes. Also revealed is an almost total lack of paint apps and a strange pushed-out window of the vehicle. Talk about a boring-looking toy.

Crankcase looks pretty good
I really like the robot mode, but that gun's pretty weird on the alt mode(not near as bad as Barricade's claw thing
). But you could just take it off anyways...

Re: More images of Deluxe Crankcase and Starscream
The funny thing is, while the mechtech weapons are ridiculously over-sized, I don't actually object to the visible weapons in vehicle mode - in fact, it very much reminds me of the G2 comics, which is good. So those 5mm holes on the top of that truck are going to be great for adding more reasonably proportioned weapons from my accumulated arsenal - probably repainted Energon weapons.

Still on the fence with crankcase, main problem is the bug eyse im really getting sick of all the cons having bug heads. Still dont see the point in making Megatron a truck, every time i see him i think octane not megatron.

They look pretty good, Crankcase doesn't have as much back kibble as I was expecting and the only problem I see with Starscream is his paint apps are lacking in robot mode. I'm starting to like what we've seen so far except for Optimus.

Starscream actually doesn't look totally awful! Still a pass though.

Why is he Crankcase all of a sudden? I'm still kinda hoping that he's Shrapnel.

Considering it's about making money, I'm surprised we havn't seen repaints of Leader class Starscream making G-1 repaint, Skywarp, Thundercracker, and Ramjet, and that this deluxe wouldn't eventually lead to that too?
But pass on the deluxe version.

Well, that Starscream at least looks better transformed that the previous several pics I have seen.

Re: More images of Deluxe Crankcase and Starscream
I always thought these two transformer toys looked good. The deluxe SS is decent, though I am not sure I will pick him up considering I have the leadclass one. I still think the SUV is the insecticon Shrapnel. Not a fan of the oversized weapons at all. Waste of plastic and actually works to the detriment of the toy line in my opinion. And whats up with the junky looking HA figures this time around? It seems like everyone on this site is in love with that horribly looking Buggy and Copter. I think those are trash.. If i put that next to my other HA figures they would look like complete garbage. A sweet looking Pontiac Solstice sitting next to ... a GI Joe looking 4 wheeler that is all weird looking... it doesnt even look like a 4 wheeler I have ever seen in the real world. And the Helicopter is worse. Looks like they have plans to ruin the best Transformers toy line.

Re: More images of Deluxe Crankcase and Starscream
Why the denial of the name "Crankcase"? Crankcase was listed as a name on the leaked toy list and more than likely the owners of Crankcase had the packaging with it.

I am also a Transformer fanatic and I have some of them as my collection. However, I still like to see some other collections of other collectors here. Likewise, I would like to show my transformer toy collections too so I can sell them here.
