PvP's white balance is horrendous. It makes his blast effects look yellow when they are very much orangey orange.

Compared to other Cyberverse Deluxe bots, Starscream is really good. Not having BAF makes such a positive difference. The overall engineering is better. He poses more like a WFC bot. He has 5 different base plastic colors and generous paint apps. The blast effects are nice once you fix the warps with a heat gun (seems like all bigger effects are having warps across the lines).

The exposed hands, though, and hollow plastic syndrome are still very much annoying.

Starscream is about the same size as the other Deluxe bots, which puts him closer to the smaller WFC Deluxe bots.

Compared to WFC Deluxes overall, still a far ways to go but wave 3 is starting to close the gap.

The legs had to be hollow due to how he transforms.

No no no...that would be an awful move. Only Studio Series 86 Hot Rod is deserving of that class bump and price: legit Masterpiece level Deluxe figure at 'discount' Voyager pricing.

 

Changed my mind on Prowl....Ick...

 

What a great time I had reading all this thread. No questions on my side so far!

 

The blast effects look quite a bit better after fixing warps. Starscream with a Scraplet.

Prowl looks awful. The head is inexcusable: the paint apps and the hollow plastic syndrome from the back. Of the 1st 8 bots, Thunderhowl also had hollow plastic syndrome for the head (and a terrible figure in general to end wave 2). OP did too but to a much smaller extent.

 

Dat butt flap. Hmm, does Soundwave have enough clearance in alt mode?
