    I'm liking Ripclaw.
    That Starscream looks cool. But he looks more like a pre Beast Wars Terrorsaur. If he were red.

    Starscream is awful. That thing is absolutely awful. Hollowed out legs, barley looks like Starscream. He's up there with Bee and Bulkhead as worst BH figure.

    Ripclaw is still a must buy.

    Ripclaw is a definite buy.

    Starscream... only if I can figure out someone to repurpose him as. Or he gets a repaint.

    Honestly, the BH versions of most characters are repurpose/repaint fodder in my mind. I mean, Starscream could easily be a Prime version of one of the Predator jets; Deluxe Bulkhead is hitting me hard as a Prime Brawn; Wheeljack has become Prime Downshift (Energon), and Bee is looking to be repainted as Prime Tap-Out (maybe with a CJ head, hm). And, of course, how easily a Prime Motormaster could come out of the new BH Optimus.

    I dig it too. I have a strong feeling the characters in the show won't get these new looks. So if I don't like this as SS, it'll make a good Acid Storm or Brimstone.

    It's Ripclaw, and Lazerback for that matter, that I'm not sold on.

    Starscream looks better every time we see him. The Prime line is going in a great direction now that it's not taking itself so seriously. Someone finally grew some aesthetic balls.

    Edit: WHAT IN GOD'S NAME IS THAT ANTENNA ON STARSCREAM
    DEAR GOD WHAT THE ACTUAL NO STOP PLEASE STARSCREAM
    well at least it makes him about as tall as FE

    Yeah, I kinda doubt they'll look like that in the show, but I at least think that they could get the new weapons. I love the mold, I mean it has its flaws, but don't all of the new figures? I think that I almost like the new design better than the original, he just seemed to skinny to be Starscream, I feel that this is kind of an in-between version. But I do still love FE Starscream, that was a great toy.

    Ripclaw is pretty great, especially for an original character.

    Starscream is actually cool. I don't see him as Starscream as he's a bit smaller and more feminine. As others have said, I see him more as Slipstream.

    I just don't understand the antenna. It serves no purpose in altmode, it must do something! I keep feeling like we haven't seen everything about the figure yet.

    Ripclaw looks nice and all, but I would love it if the beast-mode head had some neck articulation.

    The Ripclaw mold looks nice, but I can't get past the colors, so I'll wait to see if we get a Ser-Ket repaint from it...or a Cyberverse mold...Starscream is an easy pass. I'll be ordering his Commander figure in the near future along with wave three Optimus. Smokescreen on the other hand still looks like he'll be a must, but I'm not sure if I'll still get his Legion figure too. Might depend on if that Predacon five-pack looks good enough to get.

    If Hasbro actually released a Terrorsaur repaint of that Starscream I might have to get it.
