    Hmm, should reserve judgment for colours, but I think it might have a better overall sculpt than the most recent offering.

    Their Prime looked good.

    They definitely have my attention now.

    Looks good and I especially like how they managed the waist swivel. Not sure if I'm in for this. Not looking to start a new collection. I pre-ordered Optimus cuz I'm a sucker for Optimus and I buy pretty much every good looking version of him. Still, I do like how it looks so I'm a little tempted.

    They seem to be making better RED figures.

    Really looking forward to it, I was impressed enough with the video of their Prime to order a couple of kits, glad to see they're doing more.

    Same boat... I'm tempted, this Starscream looks good, just like their Prime (pre ordered as well).
    I'm liking the non transformable model kit aspect of these figures and the kind of low pricing.
    Looking forward to some colored pics.

    I agree. This is how I thought Takara should have done the waist swivel on MP Starscream. First got the basic idea from Siege Jetfire

    Here I am just salvating over the potential of painting up their Prime, and now they have a Starscream too?!

    I'm all in, baby!

    Very impressive. I'm not that big of a fan of G1 Starscream so I don't think I'll pick this up but it's encouraging to see that this will become an entire series of figures.

    I wonder if they'll try to create a scale with these or if every figure will be around 13 cm

    Wait, will he be the same size of Prime? I mean, it's not a deal breaker, I just won't buy those characters if they are too big. I don't know, it'll have to be on a case by case situation.

    I don't think we know the official size of Starscream yet. Doesn't look like the original post on Weibo said anything about it.

    Yeah, I didn't see any size mentioned. It's fine, I'm just be cautiously optimistic.

    EDIT: Changed "did" to "didn't". I did not see any size.

    Looking at how small Starscream's head looks on Optimus, I'm gonna' go ahead and predict that he's at least a little shorter than Prime.

    ShowZ has both the prime and this listed at 12.8cm aka 5" .. this could just be speculation on their part but they're usually pretty good when I comes down to size details on their listings

    Hmm, well I definitely want that prime, and a megatron if they make one, and my absolute favorite Soundwave!

    A third party model kit? Looks very neat! I know these have kind of existed for a little while now but it\'s always neat to see more.
