I'm already looking forward to the many repaints and kitbash/customs by the folks on here.

 

This time hasbro make it so detailing!

 

Honestly, not feeling it all. I really hate those opened-up-to-the-point-of-being-completely-flat-and-ridiculously-too-thin hands that seem to be spreading like wildfire through the MovieVerse designs.

I think they've also gone overboard on the "alien" design of the Transformers. I loved pretty much all of the designs from the first movie/toyline (yes, even Megatron), but this looks like they've taken it to the extremes.

Just more reason for me not to bother with the movie line and focus on some Henkeis and Universe/Classic figures with an odd Encore here and there.

 

Edit: Posted it in a new topic.

 

holy shits ya. starscream looks waay better than the first movie toy. im stoked he actually has hand and not crazy missiles....

stupid question??? how in the hell are peoples getting revenge of the fallen toys so soon already. hook some up!

 

I asked the same question in another thread, look for the answer in the ROTF deluxe Sideswipe thread.

 

The quick answer? Paying stupid amounts of money to Chinese factory thieves who stole the toys and then sell them loose & without packaging so that a few hardcore North American guys can post YouTube videos, get news credits on forums, and get praised because they're sooooo on top of things by having the figures months in advance at quadruple the retail price.

More or less.

 

Is it me or are his legs even worse this time around?

 

It's you, trust me...

 

He's wonderful. I can't wait to get him.

 

yeah, that was a hilarious reply.  

 

Actually it happens in Alliance issue 1, the first issue after Reign of Starscream ended.

 

Hai I'm posting 3 times in the threadz.

Yeah....so....anyway, upon checking out several screen grabs from the trailer, I'm verrrry confident SS has his tribal markings in the movie. Maybe not as obvious as the toy, but they are definitely there, which saves me a few hours of repainting! (I'm a dork about things being "movie accurate")

Well, it would be kinda hard for him to post more pictures of a figure he no longer has.
