    Depends on if you want 'Uber Geewun' or 'Updated Geewun'. I'm fine with the original. I like the updated stylings.

    I liked the updated stylings as well of the first one. To me it fit with the "modern" representation they were going for.

    I wish I had gotten the 2.0 version because it's more Gewunny, but I heard it had some awful QC issues. At the time I was cool with the classics version, but it bugs me that he's the least G1-accurate of all the seekers.

    I owned 5 of the Universe repaint at one point (it was one of those figures that I loved so much that everytime I saw it, i bought one.) and NEVER had any QC issues.

    I have Classics Screamer, but I also got the Reprolabels set for him. I'm a big fan of this version.

    I vote for the Universe version. The Classics version is OK, but has too much red on the wings and tailfins for my taste. Universe is a much better representation of Starscream IMO.

    If I do get a Classics version, I'll probably keep him in packaging.

    i have the TFU Starscream, and never had a problem with him. He looks great on my shelf next to his "ghost" mold (the deluxe sized one.)

    you may save a few bucks getting the TFU version instead of paying a steep price for "classics".

    Used to own a TFU/Classics 2.0 "White" Screamer. Bugger was floppy & full of looseness & it took me a good 6 months to rid myself of him. :cry 

    But I've to agree that the white on him is awesome.

    I like 2.0 better than 1.0, but I like the Henkei Ghost better than both of them.
