    I really hope they make an all gray Starscream and call it "Bad Comedy" edition as a GS release.

    Starscream set looks great. Hoping Earthrise Megatron's backpack doesn't prevent him from sitting on the throne.

    I love his face sculpt. Didn't care for 86Kup, and Blurr could have been better, but I like this one, even though I wish they had gone with the mouth plate.

    Honestly though I was a bit disappointed I was hoping to see the new Legacy line, but after seeing the new Perceptor I got excited, and Coronation Starscream with the Throne just looked awesome can’t wait to get that

    Sweeps are definitely not worth it for us that bought multiple Scourges. Starscream just for the throne ;)  Not sure I\'m digging Perceptor\'s head....

    And that\'s basically it...What a waste :mad:

    I have to wonder if they focused on SS 86 reveals because it is still the 35th anniversary of the movie. Perhaps they wanted to sink their nostalgia hooks into people with the added benefit of pushing movie tickets. But they did not have enough figures to justify that focus in my opinion. A paltry three figures in the SS 86 pipeline when Kingdom has a wave of new figures AND a wave of repacks in the next 4-6 months. Maybe they are more intent on cross selling their brand rather than their toyline in order to further monetize a brand that they own outright rather than one that is licensed to them. Marvel, Star Wars and Power Rangers they only make money from the toys, but with Transformers and G.I.Joe they can make money with all these other ways.

    If this is the reasoning behind it I am not a big fan because they are not picky enough with who they license out the brand to. We end up with boorish game crossovers and off-the-wall, overpriced, bright yellow, J. Balvin Soundwaves.

    Furthermore, no one has any business going to a movie theater right now. Full stop.

    Is anyone else using their Titans Return Scourges as Sweeps?
