    How am I the only one that seems to realize Starscream is in Armada colors?

    Is it bad that I like Starscream more than Shockwave?

    Shockwave is bought hard. Starscream.... dunno, I'm not a fan of the Cyberverse Commander mold to begin with and the deco reminds me of Air Raid and Soundwave having a kid and this is the result.

    Ah, the usual array of complaints. They could at least be original.

    I think Cyberverse and Scouts - the size classes that should have the lowest expectations - have been knocking it out of the park on a regular basis.

    I hope they keep the concept going through the next movie and tv show.

    Except that these designs are likely not to appear at all, and there are no fuzzy pictures of him, and if Hasbro was tasked with making toys of something that is going to be on the show, they'd get more than some fuzzy little pictures...

    Shockwave looks gorgeous, shame they only painted the centre/pupil of his eye...I'll just have to fill the rest in when I eventually pick one up! Can't wait for my last Prime commander :)

    Starscream actually looks very similar in design to the deluxe except for the colour scheme, IMO.

    All-in-all, this kinda makes me wish I'd bought the CVC Starscream when it first came out - as the BH CVC has a much-needed update to the articulation of the 1st mold & looks like swapping them out would require little more than trimming excess armor & popping a balljoint...

    But that Schockwave is bought on sight.

    I don't know....the Voyager toy looks like a beast. This cyberverse one looks like a stumpy dwarf.

    Shockwave is a must, like the Cyberverse Beast Hunter Optimus, I find the bot mode silhouette to be more appealing than that of the voyager. Weird but true..at least for me. Cyberverse Commanders are kicking ass for the most part this year.

    Starscream though...I dunno, maybe I have to see it in person. I don't like how it looks like a fighter jet retooled with the cockpit of a passenger airliner. Something's just not right with that. That's like G1 Sideswipe retooled with the hood and windshield of a schoolbus.

    umm, can't see what i'm missing but BH CVC Starscream appears to have the exact same articulation as his screen accurate predecessor

    For the most part, yes - but the BH CVC has the cockpit attached to the forearm, rather than the upper arm; so I guess the correct phrasing would be not that it has "better" articulation, but rather "much more favorable" or "more natural" articulation.
