    Looks good. But why did they made Thrust, Dirge and now Thundercracker, but no Starscream?

    Why would they make Starscream again, when at least 2 Classics Screamer had already been done.

    Are you talking about the Deluxe Universe Starscream that came out in late 2009?

    AND the first release in 2006.

    I don't see why he needs another repaint as himself. It isn't like he's difficult to find.

    No mention about Thundercracker's conflict over the Decepticon cause, I see. Perhaps Megatron has squashed it out of him.

    Oh I know the 2009 Deluxe Universe Starscream isn't difficult to find. I seen plenty of them on Ebay going for between $45 to $100.

    I own one myself.

    because if they keep rereleasing every character that people missed each time, we would never finish the crew

    It's really a sad statement about the state of this website that nearly every thread in this forum needs to start like this.

    Maybe for the Japanes one and really, even that should only run about 30 tops. Heck, even the ghost one only goes for 90.

    I like it, so therefore I want it.

    Not to hot about the bio, though. Sounds a little too much like Dirge's Generations bio because it talks about sound-based-fear-generating powers.

    Classics Starscream will be back. The sooner Transformers gets a Greatest Hits line, akin to Star Wars Legends, to bring popular characters/toys back to shelf the better.

    Because since Hasbro released Generations Thrust, Dirge and now Thundercracker. I thought they would go ahead and include Starscream, Skywarp and Ramjet.

    Thrust, Dirge, and Thundercracker were never available at retail until Generations. Starscream, Skywarp, and Ramjet were already available a retail (twice, in Starscream's case) so they aren't really a priority. A new Skywarp and Ramjet could be possible, since the Classics ones can be hard to find and expensive. Plus I imagine people might want a more "traditional" deco for Skywarp.

    If you've missed Skywarp, Ramjet and Starscream the first time around then you missed out. They were available, you just chose not to get them.

    They won't release them again. It was a push to get them to release the remaining three seekers at retail in Generations. I just can't see them going back and releasing them again in slightly different color schemes. It isn't the movie line.
