Whoo Hooo Yeah! First Thread! :grin:

Hmmmm, I wonder if Target will contract to do a Special clear version exclusive, ghost of starscream variant? :???:

c'mon its Hasbro they have done it before.

Do you think they will issue a clear version of that mold?

But if they did do it, I would suspect it would end up for next years Botcon exclusive, like the Mirage clear variant.

Note: Secretly I wish for a clear variant, so that I can pretend Waspinator is being taken over by G-1 Starscream!
I can't wait for my orders to ship, recent ordered Takara Reissues Beast wars, whoo hoo!!

When did Hasbro release a ghost Starscream? That's Takara's thing as far as I know. MP Starscream getting that treatment is highly unlikely.

They never have.

And I agree.

At the same time though, an eHobby version would be possible.

I was thinking that too, but I figure it's too complex and expensive for them to really consider.

Sure, but it's probably better spend waiting for Jesus to come back.

I ghost of Starscream MP would be cool, but I doubt Hasbro would be willing to spent the money it takes to do a clear plastic one.

Or they would spend the money, but it ends up being a BotCon exclusive instead. :sad:

To make a Masterpiece Starscream's Ghost, Botcon would have to charge $500 to make a profit. A Classics Starscream's Ghost is far more likely, especially with the line now continuing next year. Yet another way of keeping the Seekers from the masses...

I always thought the clearish one from Energon was his ghost or something and unicron gave him his body back or something. Didn't watch the show and the comic ended the month before that issue.

Well, not clear, maybe Jersey Shore ocean colored
