    I'm not sure If I should even bother with them at all.

    I do like the G1 Starscream deco on the Leader class but I have a MISB HFTD Leader Class already.

    Yeah,I don't like either one.

    It just doesn't make sense to take the movie figure and paint it in their G1 colors when the actual character looks nothing like the original G1 figure.

    That's just me though.

    So, can people finally stop bitching that Ironhide and Starscream weren't in their G1 colors in the movies? Now you get to see what they would have looked like, and it wouldn't have been pretty.

    I gotta say Pass on this one. I dont like the movie figures, period. And these figures make no sense.

    Interesting prices - wonder if they'll arrive in Australia? BTW, even though I should have noticed before, but like the burn marks on Starscream's vehicle mode! :D

    I like them both I wonder if the Black Megatron will show up too. If the Brawl Mould is still available i'd quite like a Tankor blue one.

    If these are coming to North America maybe I preordered that Classics Seeker set a bit too soon.

    Agreed on that one. Doesn't look that appealing at all anymore.

    I could see a possible purchase of the Leader Starscream, but maybe if I sell off my Voyager version from the first film. Don't need two G1 re-decos of movie figures.

    yeah man, releasing old movie molds, repainting more old figures rather than giving us breakdown, jet vehicon, voyager unicron, a new mold of Prime smokescreen.. etc.

    i see this as them going in the wrong direction.

    These figures look pretty sweet. Might pick them up if I ever see them in stores...
