    Starscream

    The only thing im worried about is the Firing missile on the JET mode. As I would think it would come from the arm cannon which means the arms will be sitting under the wings? Could be wrong, looks like theres alot for that JET mode to hide...

    yah.. for sure. i own the voyager and am NOT regretting it. if it weren't for the hands sticking out from the back and his backwards elbow joints, it would be a perfect starscream, and i like the smaller figures for overall playability.. exactly the same reason i got a voyager Megs AND a Leader.

    but....i am SO looking forward to Leader SS.

    I must say, I am incredibly impressed with this toy, and will be buying it at the very first opportunity. Everything about this toy is at a higher level of perfection. Hastaktomy really has outdone themselves this time. I think it ranks up there with MP Prime as one of the best-executed TFs of all time.

    On a side note, comparing this with the earlier pics, does that arm launcher yell 'partsforming' at anyone else? Where does it go?

    If you look on his forearm, you can see his hand folded up. I'm assuming that the launcher folds up and then flips back to make up the bulk of his forearm when it's not deployed.

    has anyone thought about the complexity of the transformation?
    it could very well be more irritating to transform than leader class prime.
    other than that...

    SOLD XD

    Seriously, the designers/developers have hit home run! I will look forward to this release, and if there is a real world F-22 color version too!

    Then again its hard for me to believe on the Leader Class Bumblebee. I rather have Ironhide as a Leader Class for the Autobots including our Blackout.

    Man...I really don't feel like waiting until 2011 to get a GOOD movie megatron.

    If they screw up on megs again I will lose my mind, we need a good movie megatron!
    The worst part is how much freedom they had for the transformation, it's not like they had to fit certain parts into a truck form, they had an alien tank!

    Yet...he's a total POS

    But Starscream? yeah....amazing.....Can't wait to get muh favorite transformer characters best toy eva!

    Bought the voyager today at Wal-Mart for $14, but I must say, I think I will repaint him as Acid Rain or something and have this guy be the Leader of my seeker jet collection. Just waiting for the shelf warming Skywarp and Ramjet to go clearance so I can snag those. This guy looks to be a close 2nd in awesomeness to Optimus, but once in hand, I may change my mind. He looks so frickin' cool.
