    Starscream was only offered in Bravo and Titan Changer prior to this. So this will be about the size of a voyager.

    It’s really hard to tell from the instructions and render, but do his legs move? They look like they collapse down when transforming, but it looks like other than that they’re just static.

    They look ball jointed. But hard to tell for sure.

    Like = Hope I can find one, still not found Arcee, Jackie and Barricade :/

    I do wish they'd actually repaint him though in any of the sizes. as Thundercrackers and Skywarp. & same goes for Optimus and Nemesis Prime.

    We could perhaps do with a new Optimus though the last one wasn't very good. I noticed there is a Boxed Optimus and Bumblebee there too, I wonder if they are straight repacks or repainted in anyway.

    The faux Seeker cockpit trend continues, I mean I kinda get it in this case (toy with much less budget than mainline stuff)

    Honestly he's not bad looking. Shoulder articulation, elbow articulation, pretty clean looking, nice sculpt...

    If this is a rhetorical question, you know the answer. If this a genuine question, there's no helping you.

    These 2 are smaller:

    Man they really need to retire those Optimus and bee molds. Those are 5 years old now. They look terrible compared to these new ones coming out

    Might pick up that Screamer depending on how the jet looks. Chunky arms aside, I actually quite like the PotP mold/design, so a streamlined look has potential.

    I don't recall my Authentics Optimus having Orange lights, I'll need to look into that.
