Flame Toys Reveal Coloured Images of Kuro Kara Kuri Starscream

Posted by ZeroWolf Jan 8, 2021 at 8:22am CST 42,684 views
Greeting Seibertronians! Fellow Seibertron user, Powered Convoy has let us know that Flame Toys have made another reveal (after showing off the new Windblade prototype) on their social media accounts. What did they reveal? The full colour design of Kuro Kara Kuri Starscream!

Transformers News: Flame Toys Reveal Coloured Images of Kuro Kara Kuri Starscream

As is clear, this one still has a way to go before its finished and ready for sale but it does give us a good idea what the final product may look like. Flame Toys Kuro Kara Kuri range is their high end non-transforming figure range and already includes heavy hitters like Tarn and a fully combinable Victory Saber (made up of Star Saber and Victory Leo).

What do you think of this version of this fan favourite? Are you looking forward to the eventually unveiling of the prototype? Let us know in the Energon Pub and stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews!

More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

This Starscream look a bit too Gundamesque but he does look pretty bad-ass.
I'll never buy him because of the price, but I'm still looking forward the finished product.

I agree,Gundam is one of the first things that come to mind when looking at this design.

It is a bit, isn't it? I generally don't like the whole "more anime inspired Transformer = Gundam" attitude but that has definite vibes of, like, Gundam 00. It does still look very cool though, even if I'd have preferred the Furai Model design given more planey details and extra paint (and obviously more Kuro Kara Kuri love in general).

More importantly how does she look from the back? That seemed to be the thing that angered most people (that would never have bought this in the first place) the first time around.

Funny thing is every bit of original model concept art and the prototype above showed her from behind, but this time they seem to be being careful about how they pose her. :lol:

Anyway, the wings were always my primary issue so I'm happy with this. I also like that they made the gold headpiece more visible from the front.

The first thing I noticed was the amount of care they took in posing.
I may purchase this one if it's a reasonable price.

Starscream really looks like how Sara Pitre-Durocher drew him in TAAO using his PotP toy has a go-by. It looks good

Eh, the guns do look a little Gundam like, but I don't really see it for the rest of the figure. If anything I see a stylized take on CW Leader Starscream with Leader Jetfire's backpack.

I didn't noticed the guns at all. It's the legs that scream "Gundam".

The overall look as well take some heavy inspirations.
It's not a bad thing to be honest. Way better than the "happy crotches" of the kits.

Also the backpack from Jetfire helps complete the red pylons of G1 Starscream.

For me the legs scream PotP Starscream, most Gundam don't have cankles like that.

I forgot how goofy he looked with his Popeye limbs.
Glad I skipped.

Greetings Seibertronians! Fellow Seibertron users, Powered Convoy and Fires_of_Inferno, has tipped us off that Flame Toys have just revealed another new entry into their Furai model kit line up! This time it's Arcee!

Image

Arcee shares the same designer as their recently shown off Windblade figure, and you can certainly see the same design cues when looking at them. While recent Arcee transforming toys have caused a debate amongst fans, this figure (while not screen accurate) won't have that issue being a non-transforming model kit! So no worrying about her being a shell former with a bulky backpack!

No doubt Flame Toys will keep us updated when Arcee will be available to preorder!

What do you think of this version of Arcee? Will you be getting her? Let us know in the Energon Pub and stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews!

So far so good for this Arcee.

See ya in 3 years when she'll finally be done.

Cute! Now I just have to decide what cheap car kit to chop up to make her look like she transforms into something.

Comment by Rodimus Knight Jan 14, 2021
Maybe it's because it's a static drawing, but she's looks kind of boring to me. Maybe the prototype model will make me more excited.
What I would like to see is the statue from a few years released.

There are already people tweeting at Hasbro about this (https://twitter.com/Log_log5/status/1349742266534023174) in their outrage.

Not sure about Arcee just yet, so I'll wait until images of the prototype drop. I would have preferred them doing Nautica though.
