    You know, people always use the excuse of "but the kids will like it". Now, maybe I was an abnormal child, but I was always more interested in something that wasn't a pile of crap. I liked nice colours, I liked fun, rewarding transformations (I was, and still am, the guy who likes RID Landfill - so sue me), and I knew when something was disappointing (Armada toys, Energon...... I've never managed to watch the whole of Energon, and even when I was a child I knew it was total ass). So either I was a smart child, or children these days are REALLY stupid. Or perhaps it's just Hasbro, who treats children as if they're all newborns.

    says who? YOU, and its called an opinion. If it was a fact then why am I currently saying:
    I am loving the new beast hunters, I will pick up all of them. They are not crap, you think that they are crap. Just because you believe something doesn't make it true for everyone. I personally like them they aren't the best, but they are awesome re-imaginings to the prime universe' characters. Great line Hasbro keep em' coming
    and this starscream is awesome

    That's George Bernard Shaw. Emgo's quoting Shaw.

    That Dreamwave pose he is in is probably making him look way worse than he actually is.

    There are more "original" third party t-formers coming out now that developers have seen success. I believe FP has a very popular blue and steel one. Another company is producing a Nova Prime. These may be a small percentage of the third party stuff out now, but I believe that number is going to increase. There are so many cool characters from all the generations and series that have not been made, that it doesn't make sense to come out with an inferior product that (I think) is going to attribute to the next Transformers popularity decline. (TFandom rocks, voicing disputes and opinions is one of the best parts)

    ^ I'm very curious about this. Note that all the "old" designs are still appearing on the actual packaging.

    It's all relative, man. I haven't yet heard of a toyline that doesn't have its diehard fans. And only rarely have I heard of individual toys that absolutely nobody liked.

    I'll reserve final judgement until some better pictures show up to better represent this figure. As it is, I'm not into the colors in is sporting here though.

    I don't post "the kids will like it" because I think kids are stupid but because I know what MY kids like AND I have shpwn them pictures of some of the new Beast Hunters stuff.

    Personally, I think they should be killed with fire, but my kids don't.

    Not a good enough picture to really pass judgment. The stance is a bit odd. But that could be to some good old Hasbro official misstransformation.

    It almost looks like it might take a lot from the FE figure in way of transformation, but then I noticed this one doesn't have the nosecone butt. So there's at least that.

    I think he looks pretty good.
