Can't say I'm not slightly disappointed. The Siege Tetrajet is OK... not amazing. Sure, another CW limb is a tad much, but if they used the Takara Ghost Starscream as a base, or even parts from the PotP Dread/Wing duo, they could make a nice somewhat new bot... and yet another 'Con jet for a Starscream Seeker combiner.
Red Wing - Transformers Wiki If I was repainting a Siege jet then Sunstorm would have been first on my list to do.
Long story short: He owes his existence to a combination of some bizarre miscommunication between Hasbro, Takara, FunPub and e-Hobby about who gets to do a Sunstorm toy, a slight coloring error in a comic, and a fan who wouldn't shut up about a random background extra until he was provided an official name.
Actually wondering how the Coneheads would work in the Siege Seeker mould.... And I hope Needlenose is and extensive retooling should he use the Tetrajet base design. He needs to be different enough to be distinct as his own thing.
I\'ll probably hold off on getting Starscream from Siege and end up getting this one and calling him Starscream because he basically has Armada Starscream\'s colors and that\'s my favorite color scheme for the guy... am I weird?
