..........see a G1 accurate Starscream ever again? I was just looking at the new Japanese Classics. They gave Starscream Thundercracker's stripes AGAIN! Robot Masters SS had TC's stripes, Hasbro did it on the masterpiece & now Takara did it on the Classic. Starscream only has red, NOT red & white. Is there some reason why they never get it right? (Then there's Sunstorm which is supposed to be a clone of Starscream yet also has Thundercracker's stripes). I was thinking about ordering the Japanese Classic Starscream & I was like "wait a minute, they got the stripes wrong AGAIN!". What's their problem? Did they at least get the stripes right on Encore Starscream?
It is G1 accurate in the respect that it is show accurate http://usuarios.lycos.es/toxicoyeah2/tftm/starscream_deletedscene1.jpg http://www.rubberslug.com/user/b4e5...8e751/124222-6553155-Starscream-screencap.jpg
Wait a minute, pictures of the Takara Classics release are online? Geez, I've been looking for those. Link please, Mr Noisemaze, sir!
I can give you the link: http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/showthread.php?t=163255 I just think hasbro and takara are either unaware of this difference. Or more likely choose thundercracker stripes to make the colors look more interesting than just red. maybe robot hero g1 starscream is accurate, as he even has painted versions of the original stickers for his knees.
......See an end to this ridiculous practice of not actually using the thread title to say anything about the thread?
Is this really something to get all worked up over? Tiny white stripes? I can see being upset about the stupid upside down faction symbols, but this is such a minor nitpick.
That's the meat of it. Takara Classics SS has the 'show standard' upside-down 'con symbols and lightish blue parts too.
Reviving this thread a bit 'cause I just noticed..... Robot Heroes Starscream actually has stripes that match the G1 toy. Go figure. From Plastic Crack: http://www.flickr.com/photos/naladahc/536385500/
