TonTon made the review weeks ago already. He also make nice comparisons with the old MPM-01 which is based on the HFTD leader, and the current SS voyager.

They completely nailed the robot mode! This is definitely something I'll be picking up, though I'm not sure when.

jeez. that lack of articulation in key areas, and lack of solid ratchets where they should be just makes me glad i have the HFTD leader. how is it they can release a "masterpiece" in 2020 that doesn't have a bicep swivel, when it's basically standard on a deluxe?

A jet without jets? :-? It's a shame they put so much detail into the jets in robot mode, but completely omitted them in the jet mode

Preorder him at Amazon.JP
It's the best price and you are sure to get him.

Look like the pre-orders at Amazon.JP are now closed. Only one seller offer a pre-order and it's at almost 40K yen!

I'm pretty glad to not have missed out.

How about you guys? Have you secured Screamers on pre-order?

Got mine from Target today.. overall, nice update, but the ankles are unforgivable. For the price, I was expecting a much more solid figure

Found Screamer at my local Target today. Not going to get him, but he was pretty cool to see on the shelf. :D

So some initial impressions on Screamer: The figure itself is pretty good, and very close to being really good. The jet mode and robot mode are both pretty dang neat, and the transformation so far has been good, nothing hugely pain in the ass-y. There are 2 things that I don't particularly like that I'm encountering though: the wings are a little "floaty" alot like MP Track's robot mode. but I also might need to work on adjusting the wings to make them more stable.

The 2nd thing though is the shoulders. They are using a pretty weak ratchet, and he has diecast forearms, so his arms are almost unable to hold themselves up empty, let alone with the accessories sadly.

Are you referring to the robot mode? If so, I don't think you've got them up enough, as they sort of soft-lock in behind his head.

His forearms are plastic. I think you meant upper arms.

On a separate note, I have to say that this is by FAR the best MPM they've released so far! I'm not a huge fan of Bayverse designs, but I have to admit that this guy is really quite impressive.

MFW Americans already have their MPM Starscream from Target while my preorder from months ago will not ship before November from Amazon.JP...

Ah but what was the price difference between what they paid and your amazon.jp order?

Well, for starter, I'm ALLOWED to buy it from Amazon.JP. Can't buy anything from Target.com.
But if I could have bought it from Target, here's what it would have cost me:

150$US plus 30$US of shipping(estimate), plus sureshot custom fees that would be the federal and provincial taxes PLUS 10$CAN on top for "handling fees".
Total: 281$CAN. (214.56$US)

My Amazon.JP order:
The toy plus shipping and custom deposit: grand total of ¥17598, meaning 218.75$CAN or 167.30$US.

So basically, I think I'm paying the same amount than an American buying his locally live in store. And that's importing it from Japan.
It could have been worse... MUCH WORSE if it weren't for Amazon.JP.
