    Hmm, this might be my first PX figure. I really liked the FoC Seeker design.

    Well, the figure looks fantastic, but I don't think it's more accurate to the game model than the deluxe. (Not that I care about that, really.)

    Now we're talking! I love that Planet-X is so hardcore about sticking to this style - really awesome. Here's to hoping we get the rest of the cast from them; I'm sure characters like Starscream and Optimus make enough money to help out the lesser characters.

    he will be in scale i would of thought, smaller than Vulcan, probably Caelus height where Optimus will be about Neptune/Summanus height.

    Looks awesome. I wished there were ports in upper arm so that the sniper rifles can be plugged in like the G1 seekers.

    I'm expecting this to be at most a head shorter than their Prime is.

    The hasbro seekers are kinda ass but I agree with the general sentiment here. I love what PX has done with their version of this but I just don't feel the need for what will likely be a ~$300 upgrade to the FOC seeker set.

    Again, bigger fish to fry. Cool that anyone who has the disposable income has an option the hasbro toys now. As good as placeholders as they are, they're pretty dookie.

    This looks great! Keep it up Planet X. I love how they are taking the FOC setting and running with it.

    The third party foc screamer IS looking great, awesome actually, and the original deluxe mold rocked the seekers. I also like the look of their foc Prime take. I THINK Prime is vboyagerish scale? What about this guy? Same? Bigger? Smaller?

    He looks fantastic.:)  Waiting for these to come out is so hard. Do you guys think Skywarp and Thundercracker will be out at the same time that Starscream is?

    Loos good. I like the design a lot. I have fallen out of the 3rd party game, but this might tempt me back.

    Looks like it has retractable landing gear on the front and possibly the back of the legs, wonder why that wasn't shown.

    Nice. Proportions and "chunkiness" of the kibble look great imo.

    Wow.... the jet mode is garbage. A bit of a shame because I was looking forward to this. O' well, my deluxe will stay and hold his place.

    Looks good but Hasbro's one has a more accurate alt mode.

    I've been waiting for someone to make a FOC Starscream since I stopped collecting TF's 3 years ago. I've always wanted an accurate and larger figure of that design as the deluxe never did it for me.

    Looks great just hope the material quality and price are good. I just want Scream really as I loved playing as him in WFC & FOC, but if they make Megatron, Shockwave & Soundwave then i'll probably get them too.

    There are literally images in this thread proving otherwise.

    Yeah, I hope they fix this as thats the one thing bothering me other than the ugly ports on the forearms but I can live with those.

    Not bothered by the alt mode too much as for me it's all about the bot mode display.

    No, there literally isn't. There's this and it proves my case. There's a lot to be desired here in terms of the altmodes design vs the actual game model. So much so in fact that I literally don't have time to list it all....
