    Hmmm...I'm still gonna need a proper look at bot mode before I bite. I remain a big fan of the original Deep Space Starscream, and I'm still not convinced this one's better; yeah, the jet's a lot sleeker and more accurate, but a tattooed F-22 still looks gaudy and ridiculous to me. I'm still undecided on the bot mode; the earlier pictures made him look kind of scrawny but they may have been taken badly, so I await GenZhao's in-depth look. For the time being, though, I'm still gravitating towards sticking to the Starscream I have.

    He's looking better the more I see him. Jet-mode is pretty much perfect. Only downfall is the visible hands, but I wouldn't be surprised if those fold up somehow. The underside of it isn't perfect, but it's so much better than the first one it's no big issue for this figure. It's cool that they've made his missle launchers the engines. I'm liking his tats the more I see them. Can't wait to see some more bot-mode pics. It'll be nice to see his legs fully transformed, and some comparisons with the original. On a side note, I've decided that I'll get this one as Starscream, and rename the original one Blitzwing.

    This has to be a new mold, then. Great! I can get him, since I missed my chance of getting his first movie toy.

    His bottom is certainly a lot tidier, and I think that's something we can all aspire to. :) 
    I'd have to see a lot more shots (robot mode too) before I decided if I wanted another mold of this guy though.

    This is a bad ass remold.. ill definitely be getting this if the mold looks as good in hand.

    I'd also be willing to be all the seeker repaints in this mold because of its awesomeness. I was never really fond of the first movie starscream we got so this is pretty exciting!

    I'm hoping those hands can actually fold in somehow. No, it's not as bad as the kibble on the original voyager, but it still would be nice if it could hide the obvious hands somehow.

    Still too "gimmicked"---gimmicks don't work with small transforming jets. An inch here or there is just too much to hide/integrate. Imagine if this mold DIDN'T have missile launchers on the arms--we'd have hidden fists and an accurate, engine-nozzle-filled rear end. It'd be pretty darn close to perfect.

    This is of course far better and less "gimmick-kibble" filled than the last one, but it STILL IS SERIOUSLY COMPROMISED IN JET MODE by a missile-firing gimmick!

    Here's hoping for a leader-class, which will hopefully be so big and complex they could actually satiate their missile-firing-fetish without compromising jet mode TOO much.
