You know, I'm getting sick of other boards calling this Thundercracker when they know damn well it's Starscream.

EDIT: And... the thread is gone. What happened?

Oh noes! He blowed movie Starscream's face off!

Hmmm . . . it's funny. I don't particularly like the look, per se, but I can appreciate the design, if that makes sense.

I look forward to this toy so much more than anything to have come out in the movie line. Bring on the animated toys soon! I'm so ready for a change in design that isn't movie related.

So what are they going to do for the Thundercracker repaint? Paint him white? Maybe the green and black details.

Still, not my cup of tea, but not too bad. Gonna be heavily dependent of the show, though.

I'd say maybe a grey where the red is and dark blue where the rest is, or vice-versa.

Good a line that will allow me to grab g1s since I won't be buying from this line.

I'm actually liking the animated toys alot, all of the ones I've seen have such a visual flair. Regardless of how the show turns out, the animated toys themselves are looking awesome in my opinion.

So much to choose from these days, but these really stand out.

Hmmm. I quite like the mould, but not the face.

Maybe I'll just get him a paper bag or something...

Not sure about the muscle arms/tiny thighs combo. It's not right, it isn't.

It's still better than the chicken-legged gorilla that was Movie Starscream.

Still hate the enormous chin, though.

I really like the clawed hands. It's a nice touch of maliciousness on Hasbro's part. But the chin...

They should just give Starscream a suit and a late night talk show. Make the world a better place.

So, a horse walks into a bar and the landlord says to him "get out, we don't serve horses in here."

True story.

That paint scheme is ridiculous. If they release a G1 style re-paint I'll snatch it up but until then, that toy is just another Thundercracker to me.

Is there going to be a TC repaint?

Jaynz · Post by **Jaynz** » Tue Oct 09, 2007 12:50 am

Well, do you know Hasbro NOT to pad a line with repaints? I wouldn't say that I 'know' it, imperically, but odds favor that Screamer will get at least ONE repaint/retool.

Post by **Denyer** » Tue Oct 09, 2007 12:52 am

Seems less likely it'll be that one if there's substantial overlap, though. Maybe first up will be a decent Skywarp for a change.

RID Scourge · Post by **RID Scourge** » Tue Oct 09, 2007 1:24 am

Aye. Though, I'm surprized they never released a repaint of the voyager Cybertron Starscream. I mean I have the legends-class version and the supreme class version, but I didn't want that version of Vector Prime, so I didn't snag the two-pack.

I'd say that Skywarp would be the better repaint, seeing as Screamer's all ready blue.
