    I'm not arguing that it's not out of place, I'm just exited it's happening at all.

    I think his comment was aimed at me, since I said that something doesn't have to be G1 to be MP :)

    I am excited it is happening too... I just expected it to be labeled Cross Dimension on the box, not Re:Master, since Optimus and Megatron both got one figure in each line, but Starscream got 2 Re:Masters.

    But it is masterpiece styled (i.e. Cartoon accurate with modern articulation)? It wouldn't fit in the cross dimensions line any more than mp-32 would.

    Man, a lot things on my wish list coming out of TFCon. MP Skyfire, IDW Rodimus, MP Cybertron characters, good day for toys all around. I don't know that I'll be buying any of it, but you know.

    I certainly hope otherwise. I mean, they have to be really on their A-Game to tackle the GOAT Galaxy Convoy, but a good Scourge or Vector Prime would be fantastiballs

    I'm gonna be really sad if this is all that comes of their starscream tease.

    Yeah, it's not my thing but I am glad third parties are branching out from G1/IDW for fans of the other shows.

    Okay, from what I heard online the main theme for the Cross Dimension series is that the toys are HIGHLY articulated. I thought the theme was simply them being Cybertronian alt mode. So I guess it makes sense Galaxy Meteor is not in that line. It probably doesn't have as much articulation as is required.

    This will still be an awesome figure, I'm sure. Nice to see less conventional designs being added to the mix.

    yeah I thought this was just going to remain an april fools joke so it's really a pleasant surprise to see they are moving forward with it.

    GF and alternators got me back into transformers and I will happily support anything that homages either of those two lines.

    This is really nice and all but I was hoping for an MP scale Armada Starscream first!

    You know if they make an autobot/timelines version of this I may have to get him.

    I have that Universe Dirge, but since this will be more articulated and they came out with a version in those colors to reuse the mold I think I'd be willing to replace.

    Hell, I'd be happy with a Voyager size Armada/ML Starscream.


    The deluxe is just too damn small.

    It's not as out of place as you think. Cybertron starscream is essentially War Within starscream. So this is basically a MP tetrajet mold. I'd certainly use it as such

    I lot of people say the War Within, Galaxy Force and Tetrajet are the same, but honestly I think those people are blind. They are three great and DIFFERENT designs.

    Can you tell these three apart? I can, by that fact that they look NOTHING alike.

    My greatest hope is that this gets repainted in Shattered Glass colors, because even with Maketoys prices, it will be cheaper than buying the BotCon SG Starscream toy!
