New In Package Photos of Movie Thundercracker and G1 Colored Starscream

Posted by Hotrod Jun 25, 2007 at 12:52pm CDT 22,708 views
We have seen a number of photos of both Transformers Movie Thundercracker and G1 colored Starscream. However, we have yet to see any in package images of either figure. That was until now. Ebay seller paranooid has posted an auction for G1 Colored Starscream and an auction for Thundercracker. The package in the Thundercracker photos show are international packaging. Here are the images:




















More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

Is it me or is that Ironhide on the back of the box White and blue instead of Black?

Thundercracker looks pretty good. I might just have to get that.

Not even G1 colours can save that ugly freak.

If you mean Starscream I have to disagree!
He is a very cool toy with a very fun transformation.
Belive me I hated him, but as I got him by acident and transformed him for the first time, I just had to admit that he's one of the best TFs ever.

does thundercracker have the same head as the repainted starscream?

Yes apparently, or a very similar one, at least.

Well thats cool... means you could have movie starscream and thundercracker and they would at least look a little more different than just their colourscheme... hate when they just repaint a figure and not change 'something' about the mold.

Although i really like the new head, i cant justify spending more money on another Starscream that is essentially just a repaint. I might however buy the Thundercracker because hes a different character.

Looks like. First we've seen of an Ironhide recolour, but given the G1 stylings of the others I'm surprised it isn't red. Might just about work as Prowl I suppose, too bulky for Mirage, can't think of any 'obvious' G1 cast for this to be a homage to, Skids maybe? Still, if it exists we need to see some better pics.

edit - Just had at look at the gallery for Ironhide and the image on the back of his box looks similarly 'light'. I was initially thinking recolour but it's probably a flash issue and/or differences between the test shot and production piece.

Movie Ironhide's original color scheme is more of a Trailbreaker homage. Maybe the White and blue is just a Repaint for repaints sake.

Or the image just looks like that, but is in reality the normal Black Iron Hide.

either way we need better pictures of that section of the box or the figure itself before we can be sure what its meant to be.

When will we see these on store shelves? I like the G1 style SS. I may just call the movie SS "Sunstar" (or whatever the yellow guy's name is), and use that excuse to justify getting that SS. Thundercracker I really like! I hope they make Skywarp SOON! :) They're still pretty freaky looking, but at the same time, they're rather cool.

honestly I don't mind the starscream design , especially after seeing the movie clips with him in it but that G1 repaint doesn't look very good to me, I actually prefer the tan coloring. That aside I really like the thundercracker figure.

Although I like the G1 color scheme, I will probably pass unless he is that color in the movie at some point. I'm sticking with just the characters as they are represented in the film to help maintain control of my collection.

I really despise that mould. Colouring it like Seekers means nothing to me since the body doesn't look like one. It suffers the typical movie problems: nice alt/terrible robot and needlessly-layed/cut-up chest.

Mega pass.

I was totally gung-ho for the G1 redeco before I bought Movie Screamer, but now that I have him, he and his bug-face have grown on me, ALMOST to the point of being my favored transformer. I'll still be picking it up, because c'mon it's frickin' Starscream.
