first review/gallery of classics/universe 2.0 Acid Storm
One of the greatest jet molds of all time is the classics seeker mold imo.

Today i will review the newest addition to the line classics/universe 2.0 ACID STORM.

Here are some shots of the packaging

A member of an obscure squad of decepticon air warriors known as "the rainmakers"Acid storm is known as an individual only to his teammates and a very few others.He is highly intelligent,eager and dedicated utterly to the decepticon cause.He has a talent for Marshalling vast amounts of data,as well as a way with words that would make him a powerful speaker.However,he prefers to remain anonymous,as part of his team.His Hyperion3 blasters can seed natural clouds with a highly destructive form of acid rain.
bot mode;
I love this mold and the color scheme is quite nice up close with a variety of colors and camo.





alt mode;




the green and brown camo are a nice choice for him.(the baby blue nosecone is the only strange choice but seems to work.

Overall a perfect addition to seeker and con collectors

Now if they release the other rainmakers he will fit quite nicely with them.

as soon as the site returns to normal i'll add better pics

straight up comparison to classics starscream(not henkei)

The paint apps are alot better on acid storm compared to starscream

the head is painted a darker Grey/silver with redder eyes.The chest has a very nice shiny black compared to red as does the launchers and fists.

The paint on this one has a few errors but nothing noticeable besides only one foot with silver.

No rubsign this time around but a large black con logo is stamped on the front of both wings and the tail wings.Overall a way better paint style than classics starscream rivaling that of henkei style.

Great review. I like the paint job and what they did with the cockpit.

I usually like repaints (if the character is someone I like like or they surpase their previous colourscemes) but this guy just looks terrible to me. The camo does not look like camo to me (no, I'm not making a rude or disgusting implication) and the overall coloursceme is just unexciting. Not to mention the mould is sub-par at best.

I'll save my money for Sideswipe or Blu... Silverstreak. (two repaints I actually like)

Great review tamo536! Always interesting to see how most of the Classic Seeker repaints are better than Screamer' (e.g. with the painted face) when it comes to paint apps.
