Thanks to Transformers Colombia we have a new reveal of dino Rider Starscream...Yes, Starscream. Could this possibly be that he returns in AOE?

 

That is....huh...not sure what to think here, on one hand it could just be the inevitable "all the movie characters have toys now lets move on to other stuff" portion of the AOE toyline or it could be a sign of Starscream somehow appearing in the movie.

Raise your hand if you'd love a Ghost of Starscream end credit scene  

 

Well, I think I can say no one saw this coming!

But still, I'd say it's just them flexing their creative muscles and giving us a Starscream.

 

No way I'm believing he's back.

 

huh. what's the dino he's ridin?

 

Doesn't have to mean anything, really. I'd love it if he returns, but probably not. Hasbro releases toys of dead characters quite often!  

I think these are small bags that only contain a 'rider' figure, so no dino.

 

Itty bitty Starscream! Will buy. I got Lockdown and he's fun.

 

I think he mean what Dino will they show him paired with on the packaging.
I'm guessing no one new, just like Lockdown, who was shown with Grimlock.

 

We knew this was coming lol. Its ID number is A9237.

There are Shockwave toys like this coming too.

 

What he means is that on the back of the little bags the riders come with they show them riding one of the larger dinobot toys, so potentially Starscream could be riding a new Dinobot constructbot.

Or he could just be riding Grimlock, seeing as that's what they showed on the Lockdown one.

 

We cant completely rule out a Screamer return. We have seen F-22s flying in some of the spots now lol

 

To be fair, if Galvatron and Stinger are entirely human creations...what's to stop them from just replacing Starscream's head? He was pretty well intact otherwise.

At this stage, I'm more in the "chucking a major character in for marketing purposes" position. Though, surprising they made a movie accurate head...

 

Definite buy (assuming he actually gets released here). The Construct-Bots Dinobots and Riders are the only AOE products at this point that I've actually bothered to pick up (outside of getting an FAB [or whatever the equivalent subline is now] Hound the moment I find one), and I must confess I've become a sucker for them (They flank my computer at work, across from the Marvel Legoverse).

I'm really hoping that he's not in the movie (STAY ****ING DEAD!!!) and that this is just another line padder, but as (preferably) line padders go I'd pick him up in a heartbeat.

 

Saw him on the list that was leaked a few months ago but interesting to see him with a slightly different deco. The Galvatron Dino Rider is also on their Facebook page.

 

Oh god! His eyes!

 

Oh god..Starscream is literally giving us a " " face

 

I know! Why?

 

Thanks for correcting me guys! Wasn't aware they show what dino a character belongs to on the back!  

 

The only thing that makes me hesitant to buy these guys is the lack of a head swivel. For some reason I can forgive them not having elbows, but I really want their heads to turn. I'll probably still grab Lockdown if I'm bored enough.
