    I like the new version of Starscream except for one thing;you can see the hands sticking out of the back so I'm wondering if anyone who has bought the figure can tell me if they rotate or turn around so they face the bottom of the figure instead of the top.Thanx.

    They did, but the extra hinge to allow them to fold away was cut for costs.

    I really dig this new Screamer, but I also want to see if there will be a leader, hopefully we'll get word at Botcon before the figs come out. If there is a leader, I will skip the voyager.

    I know the hinge was cut, but I've been curious about something too..is it possible to slightly mod the hands so they can once again fold away?

    STOP posting your website, it's a violation of board rules. I suggest you read them again. - Staff

    I like the new voyager too, though if thwy show the leader version @ botcon and it looks awesome in both modes, I'll be all over it instead. I always thought screamer shoulda been a leader, though, I said that about AAAAALLLL the cons from the last movie too..

    thats depends on how the hands are designed, if it can be done , surely someone on these boards will devise a way to do it just be patient

    Mine is pretty much going to stay in robot mode (with the ocassional transformation to see if it still works and that I can remember how to do it) so this won't bother me. On a Leader is would bother me, though.

    It is possible if a second joint is added to the wrist.I got the elbows to bend but you can't cut anywhere near the wrist.

    Gonna wait to see the leader version, but if not I don't think the visible hands will bother me. I hope there is a better way to fold or hide them though, if not oh well...
