    Nice, legs are a little gappy, but great overall. I bet these are to scale with the upcoming (rumoured?) titan class Ark.

    we're definitely getting it now, leakers have implied it to be the last hurrah for Titan Class.

    The previous Legends one only got four repaints. I can see them doing the three main Seekers, maybe Acidstorm, and possibly a ghost Starscream with this one.

    seeing as this is a full-on G1 Seeker rather than an IDW one, and the versatility of Selects, I could see this mold being released in more obscure designs in multipacks on Pulse or Amazon. Welcoming Committee, Coneheads again, maybe even g2 ones.

    Fuck it, he looks great for what amounts to a Basic-class figure.

    He has Starscream\'s personality down, and that\'s a tall order for a small figure. It\'s wild that they can make something that small look so... conceited. 

    So what if it doesn\'t transform \"perfectly\" for you? It\'s a nifty little Starscream that will look good with your baseformers. I like him better than Core Optimus by a significant margin.

    lol he looks even blockier than the Earthrise figure. Not bad though for the size, captures the character well. I prefer the old T30 figure as I find the IDW design much more visually interesting.

    I like that the t30 doesn't fake it, the cockpit is the cockpit. I'm still keeping the preorder

    neat little guy

    of course the repaints will be coming fast and furious, but it would be funny if someone like Redwing was first out the gate

    These look a little basic. Can always use seekers for custom bait, especially since R.E.D Screamer has yet to show his leering face.

    I want the mold, but I'm hoping for something different. I don't need another SS, TC or SW since I have the Siege Voyagers and T30 Legends.

    I think wild and wacky colorschemes could work at this price point. Pretender SS, Action Masters SS or TC, any animation error Seekers with new identities. I know they wouldn't scale, but they are less risky than a $30 Selects Shelfwarmer.

    Anyway, I think the most logical special edition of this mold would be Ghost SS. I know people dread clear plastic, but I like it. In my experience I have yet to break a clear plastic part, most I've had is ugly stress marks that I've had on regular plastic.

    So it uses a fake chest but they still couldn't slim it to look more like the Seige figure and less like the Earthrise one? that's a shame. But I do like that they could at least hinge the wings better than the Earthrise one.

    Painted in his Pretender/Action Master colors, I'd instantly buy it.

    He looks great and the transformation looks really fun for the scale. I might bite on repaints but for now I'm doing just fine in the Starscream department.

    Watched the review, I think it's a great core class figure. Saying that it's better than the voyager or that if upscaled would made the perfect Starscream seems a bit of an exaggeration, though.
