His robot mode (especially the shoulders) looks to be a heavily inspired by the robot mode design of his Leader class toy from 2015.

And the leader class mold was heavily inspired by the nulegend class toy from 2013. What's after the voyager? A titan class version?

He is growing on me.

Mind you ... slap a black and purple colour scheme on him and he's going to be downright sex on legs.

That's gotta be mistransformed. His head should at least be able to go somewhere out of sight. Otherwise that's more of a hang-glider than a jet. . .

. . . Although the thought of Starscream being stuck in robot mode and resorting to a hang glider for transportation is pretty funny to me

And people bitched about non-Headmasters being Headmasters.

I for one actually love how beefy Starscream is here.

He will fit in my collection with TR Megatron and Soundwave who are both a bit chunky themselves and as a second in command to me Starscream should have an actual realistic reason for being second in command of the Decepticon empire or Soundwave or Shockwave since if he is a pathetic character it would either mean Megatron is an idiot or there were other second in commands before Starscream that all died.

Also that Jazz is absolutely top.

Indeed, this looks almost like "Pretender" Roddy, with the truck just being an outer shell. It's almost as badly simple as the G1 toy, just with the base hanging off of the back instead...



But, who am I kidding. I'll likely get all of these too....

Looks like he ran over himself... and got beheaded in the process.

Wait, wait, everybody stop.


Is that...



L...l...light piping?!

Also, his car mode is absolutely gorgeous. I'd love to have a sideswipe out of him.

Does JAzz look like he has a combiner peg too? If you look under the hood chest in the front views, it looks like there may be one. Also, the back of the car/bottoms of the feet has the hand-foot gun peg hole.....

Stalker from Onslaughtttttttttttt

Bring it. Thunderclash torso from nothing, give him a new mold. Jazz being an extremely obvious "pretool" for Boss spurned these thoughts.

If Stalker isn't worthy of a new mold than neither is Thunderclash.

I was thinking that too. Might just be coincidental detailing, but it would get my hopes up quite a bit...
