Product Description |
The moment his sensor net registered MEGATRONî* going offline, STARSCREAM knew the battle was over, and the AllSpark lost. He converted to vehicle mode and boosted for outer space, hoping to buy enough time to rally the DECEPTICONî survivors. Returning from CYBERTRONÃÂ* bearing the marks won during his reign over the DECEPTICON army, he is focused on conquest. With a new army behind him, he has the strength to pursue his own goals, and perhaps, when the time is right, bring MEGATRON back.
Prepare to do battle à DECEPTICON style! Fire either of two missiles from this eager enemyÃs pop-out missile launcher in robot mode. Activate gears with a turn of STARSCREAM figureÃs head! Or convert to an F-22î Raptorî aircraft in vehicle mode and let your imagination soar! Recreate exciting scenes from the movie or create your own! |

Starscream. He's the whiney transformer we all love to hate. We didn't get too much of him in the 1st transformers movie but hopefully he'll play a bigger role in Revenge of the Fallen.
For kids:
This is one slick jet. When transformed it really looks like an F-22 Raptor and it has a cool paint job. It looks a bit like camouflage but is really Cybertronian in design. He has a unique transformation to robot form and features several spinning gears in his chest that move when his head is turned. His transformation is challenging without being overwhelming. I think kids will really enjoy this guy.
For adults:
Sorry to compare to the 1st movie's toy of this character but it's a comparison that needs to be made - whether you have that one or not you'll probably get the point. I liked that one but this one puts it to shame. In jet mode the old figure looked fine but the underside was clunky and horribly fat with arms (which were really just huge missile launchers) and legs tucked under there. In all fairness it didn't even look like a jet from the bottom. Plus his head was always peeking out at you.
Well they went back to the drawing board with this one and man is it an improvement! This is not just a repaint. Instead of big and clunky he's sleek and smooth in jet form. The only robot bits visible at all are his hands otherwise this could be a cool little model of the F-22. The addition of the markings and symbols make him a bit more eye popping too and there are plenty of little sculpting details.
His transformation is totally different and is quite a bit of cool engineering. His head is completely hidden inside the jet and as he unfolds the body of the jet actually becomes the arms and legs and body instead of being all tucked under. It is an intricate but not an over complicated unfolding process. There are a couple of points to slot together and the tail fins that become his chest have two little black knobs that need to be matched to two little black holes as they are folded up into his body. This allows the "mech-alive" feature to work. It's a nifty little gimmick that when you turn his head several gears move in his chest.
This new Starscream may be a touch smaller than his movie 1 counterpart but the head and body sculpt are much more accurate. Plus he actually has hands. He also has missile launchers on top of his arms and he can shoot his projectiles. The only downside I could find what that the package seems to indicate "pop-up" missile launchers but they do not pop up and are just a solid piece of the arm. I won't knock off for that though since he's such an improvement in execution over the other.
He's a great fun figure with a great fun transformation that does not overwhelm. |
Long Live Lord....STARSCREAM!!!!

| As we all that played with or simply looked at the first transformers movie starscream remember; what was with all the bulk? This one is a much better and cleaner version. Yes, he has hands finally. Though, don't expect to be able to do much with them. I like this version much better in robot mode than the last for the simple fact that he is sleeker and meaner looking. And, as pointed out before, his jet mode is a more truer likeness of his real-life proto-form. I can't seem to keep my hands off him. So, i bought two! One in the box for display. The other for my personal amusement. |
Fantastico!

| wow my first voyager, always thought they were just bigger but they have a little more going on than the deluxe class. with starscream theres more to the mechalive movement, and that oh so sweet transformation lasts a little longer, nd he is bigger, so compared to the deluxes hes more to scale. awesome cybertronian paint job, and i love that he finally has hands, theyre very menacing, his legs support him very well and the head sculpt looks great, he has missiles and gatling guns on both arms. my only complaint is pose ability limited by joint articulation in the arms and no torso movement. but thats basically how he handled in the movie, both of them. get him, hes the one you love to hate. |
Like it very much

| I just want to add that pictures don't make it justice... is much nicer in real life. I thought it wouldn't be standing stable... fortunately I was mistaken. I already have Ironhide from previous movie and this Starscream is a fine addition to my collection. I decided to buy this after looking some very good pictures of this decepticon on Flickr... give it a try, you won't regret it. |

Really nice. Lot's of reviews already out there so I'll concentrate on the things that stand out.
The figure has a really cool transformation, I commend the designers of the toy. How does one think of a transformation that has his legs and chest fold up like that? Really neat. The jet has a nice clean underbelly, not too much clutter. Much more streamlined than the first movie Starscream.
The robot mode's back is also nice. There is a "backpack" present, but it blends in with the whole design of the robot. Although they could have made it fold in much farther and flatter into the upper torso's back.
They could have also done a little better with how the upper arm connects with the upper torso. They could have also added a hinge on the hands so that it folds into the jet right underneath the jet's thrusters. (Like in the instruction manual) But then again, it may raise the production cost of the toy. The designers may have had to compromise on a lot of things to keep the price down, but it still is an awesome overall figure.
I'm not really a fan of gimmicks like firing missiles and stuff, cuz they could have done away with all that and made a much better looking and much more screen accurate toy. However, they have to appease the younger customers.
The "tattoos" or the warpaint on the jet is OK I guess. I think without the warpaint, the gaps on top of the jet would be too obvious, so I welcome it.
Real nice. Kudos to the designers. |
