    I believe that this one in particular can't have the translucent head because you'd see the hidden face if you turn the head sideways.... 4 eyes, 2 noses and 2 mouths would make it creepier.

    Gorgeous pics, as usual, Gog. I was on the fence with this one for awhile, but I think you just gave me a hard shove.

    I wonder why the hands aren't blue, though...?

    I'm trying so hard to avoid buying this... The only thing that may prevent me is Fansproject crossfire and the fact that I just spent 150 on HFTD and PCCs... Arggh, those pics just made this harder...

    TakTom sure know how to do ghostly figures... :lol 

    I'm glad they've minimised the solid black parts (compared to prior ghostly figures...) but sadly his head still remains a solid colour. The question is - Should I shell out for him or for more Micromans/Diaclones instead? [​IMG]

    i kinda hate the predicament you put me into, Gog.
    looking at this bad boy, i am really considering the idea of cancelling my pre-order of the new AT-AT for this.

    this 'screamer is on the level of awesome that i'd want to keep him in a pitch black closet with a single LED giving him that glow...
    Epic.

    thanks for the review, Gog!

    Yep looking at him again the non-blue hands are really distracting.

    That looks absolutely horrible. The ghost of Starscream was a stupid idea to begin with but it looks 100 times worse in toy form.

    I thought this was a lame idea at first but after seeing these pics this thing looks totally awesome! Man i want this so bad. A hundred and ten bucks though. Agghh. I might have to cancel my piranacon order. Starscream would look so kick ass on my shelf with a few bright ass leds behind him

    does the clear plastic yellow with age or from being in the sun?

    Too bad about the non translucent head, but other than that, win win win.
    Kinda cool how it turned out to be true in the end after all...let's hope it doesn't turn out to be brittle in the end. :)

    Well, it'd be hard to see better pics than the original post, so I guess we'll have opinions on the figure if more owners post.

    This holds no interest for me as SS's ghost never wore it.

    I agree.

    Mine is on the way. I'll throw up some when it gets here. Any requests?

    My shipment of these just arrived today. Absolutely GORGEOUS. One of the few cases where I've taken my own copy down to the stock area for photographs. Just so I could bust the box open and have a photo of the figure in it's tray as part of the product photo, so that everyone could see how pretty it is.
