New Transformers Movie Red Starscream Variant

That is all.

Wow that is horrible, i mean the movie Starscream i passed ( it was ok) but the Thundercracker repaint/head remold i think is still the best one yet ( which i picked up) and the G1 Starscream isn't too bad but this is just fugly as hell.

...That's just undignified. This isn't a G2 color scheme, it's a color scheme they rejected for a G2 toy because it was too gaudy.

WTF!!!!!!!!!!

I'll say it because no one else has as yet. They should have just done Skywarp as the exclusive. DONE!

That is unless Skywarp is already planned for the Allspark Power line. Which would be better since most collectors would want him over this travesty of TFdom. I do hope so as that mould would look great in black and purple. Always loved Skywarp

Pink SS is awesome.. and I love that mold.. price is just way too much.

Reminds me of Fire Beast Optimus Primal.

Awww isn't that cute? It's the Hello Kitty Starscream.

Curses, double post.

Dear god. I think he's right.

Could jsut be the colors on my screen, but as mentioned before, that looks more pink than red to me. No thanks. For that price, double no thanks.

the things these people do to promote their products.

anyways, give it 2-4 years from now and that technology will surely decrease in cost. can't see the logic of trying to include a mediocre TF figure repaint just to sell off an overly expensive device that's good for only a few years.

now, if they packed a metallic gold MP-01 there, things might look a little brighter...

Alright! A variant I absolutely don't want!

looks like the pink gundam from the gundam seed series gundam astry if starscream was real and he saw this he hunt down the popel who made him this color no way for me.

Agreed. Especially at that price.

You have to buy soime expensive tivo-ish thoing in Japan to get this thing. I frankly think that it's really a blessing in disguise that this is so ugly. If it was something people really wanted, there would be torches and pitchforks tonight.

So how much does this ugly smeghead cost, anyway?

I hate it

It appears to be about $865 US. Not something that could be justified to shell the money out for.

865$ simply because its a different color? wow...thats just unbelievably retarded..lol

i'll never understand the whole "sell the same toy in different colors" thing....of course people buy it so thats why they keep doing this but yeah.

the G1 repaint sorta made sense but then, if i wanna see starscream painted in his G1 colors, i'll just go get a toy in the G1 design.

but i'm not a huge collector or anything so that probably explains my non understanding of these sorta things..lol

This custom Sunstorm from that mould looks 100 times better than that pink SS train wreck IMHO:

They should have panted him Skywarp colors. That would make sense. Red / ping? No thank you.

Maybe this means a Skywarp is planned sometime in the future, which is why they could not do what would seem to be a logical repaint.

Ok so they release Firestrike but no Skywarp??? Damn!! I get no love!!!

because its just too much to ask for a fuckin' skywarp....

This thing looks like what vomit would barf.

Something for the Screamer fangirls.

I like the gold, but that's it.

wow, thats really...well, i'll pass...

This is the worst thing to come out of Japan since the Nintendo Virtual Boy.

Why pink?

At least the spoke person is proud holding him.. hehehe

He's proud of it because they told him it was the remote control for the HD-DVD player.

He's probably unsure if his new pink remote uses IR or the thing flies across the room, transforms to bot mode to hit pause, transforms back to a jet, and then flies back to your hand. Hell, if something of mine did that, I'd be proud too no matter how feminine it looked.

He looks like cherry licorice.

Now if he really is cherry licorice...

Speaking of which, don't they have candy resembling Transformers aside from energon candies?

It'd be sweet to bite their heads off...

Is this not one of the greatest hobbies in the world?

Ummm...wow...that's gawd-awful-ugly.
However, I'm going to be purchasing a Toshiba XA2 in the next week or so. I'll have to look and see who is promoting the free DVD with purchase. Hey, saves me $27 bucks.
Anyone with more info on the promotion post it here. I'd greatly appreciate more info. If I find any more info I'll post it here as well. Thanks.

LOL,

What were they thinkin? Should of made him a Black and Purple rendition of Skywarp.

NO!!! Because then I'D have to buy one!

It's a mix of Starscream and iron man

OOOH frag. And I like it. I do not have the moolasss for that one.. *sigh* Writes it off.

thats the price for the actual electronic, not starscream!!

LOL indeed!

"I feel pretty,
Oh So pretty,
Oh so pretty and witty, and Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!"

Seriously, thats the song that popped into my head when I saw this. I can excuse a LOT of excesses from Hasbrow/Takara (as is shown by my ownership of 90% of the Universe line) But this this is really too absurd to be believe....if it were actually Red, as the article name seems to imply, it would be very cool indeed(Phoenix Starscream anyone?)...but this shade of pink is truly horrendous beyond even the worse of G2. It really seems like they didn't care....

Is there Any reason given for why this travesty is being produced?

Seriously.

This thing is attached to something ungodly expensive. It's better off being something nobody wants. Be glad it's hideous.

Maybe we'll get a movie Skywarp as some variety of store exclusive later on once all the Thundercrackers and G1-redeco Starscreams are off the shelves.

With that money, you can always spend it on something better. x3

PLAIN NOT MUNNKY!

Starscream...OR THRUST?

In a word.....NO!

oh come on people!!!!!!! Stop critisizing this toy Just because of its color. It is not pink it is gold, which is a true boy and Decepticon color(notice the color of most decepticon eyes), and i must say gold is a good color. Its the color of victory, the color of success, the color of a 1st place trophy, which is rewarded only to those who succeed and get noticed because of their great ideas(like all of the people that work with hasbro and seibertron. So stop making Starscream look like such a dork by writing down bad things about him.(hasbro and seibertron, you rock!)

Please, the majority of that figure is fuschia, red, pink or whatever the heck you want to call it. Plus, a majority of people want Skywarp.. maybe Thrust.. and heck... even Dirge and Ramjet would be fine.

But a Pink Starscream? Sure, i like the figure and paint app too, but it's way too expensive.

Starscream acting whiny and girly again...
