    I'm aware of that. He asked for it to be factory painted.

    And currently, this is the disparity between render and final product. Renders had blue hands and inner leg panels. As of now, the molded parts are stuck in grey.

    really hoping cliffjumper is at least a head shorter than the other deluxes like say Sideswipe. Anyone get a confirmation on how much shorter ? he looks amazing but might be too big for me

    But it comes with multiple faces...

    I heard this Starcream version looks more accurate than the master piece. It's that true?

    It's only more accurate to the G1 toy by having the vertical stabilizers swivel forwards towards the feet. Colors might also match the animation model better.

    I think John Warden said that Earthrise Starcsream is better in some ways than the Masterpiece but IIRC, he didn't get into specifics.

    You're ok, man. The KO world is full of twists and turns and figure eights.

    I think I might pass on Earthrise Starscream and all the repaints.

    Is it really just the deluxe Classics Starscream blown up to voyager size? No waist swivel?

    If they make the coneheads out of it, I'll probably get those... maybe.

    Earthrise: Ironworks is a must-have, Hoist has me tempted, and I'll wait to see if Cliffjumper is retooled into Runamuck. The rest don't really appeal to me.

    Cyberverse: I'm also gonna wait, just to see if future waves will have characters that I'd actually want. Honestly, I'd kill for a transformable Rack'n'Ruin figure.

    No. It's based on the Classics deluxe Starscream but very different. The transformation is a little different, this new one has bicep swivels, more detail, ankle tilts and possibly no landing gear(which were weird on the Classics deluxe). In addition the radome doesn't look attached to the back of the head this time and the legs have thigh swivel. The canopy also has more ridges.

    The transformation and the fact that both are based on G1 Starscream are the main similarities. Whatever shortcomings were on the deluxe are largely rectified on the new voyager aside from the landing gear(not even sure if the voyager has landing gear).

    Agree on Wheeljack. Horrible choice of using him for that mold.
    The Generations version is still pretty solid in my book.

    Starscream looks like an upscaled version of the classics.

    I think the cw wheeljack is a very good remold of the breakdown mold and looks better then the earthrise one imo I'll wait for the coneheads before I get any earthrise seekers
