They are. It'll be a retool of the 'Robots in Disguise' Arcee with a big bow weapon and added spikes at least around the exhaust pipes/lower legs. But as only a small pic of her robot mode has been shown, there's no telling the full extent of the changes.
Kudos to Hasbro for not taking the easy way out and simply recoloring an existing Starscream mold. Some people may think this figure sucks....but at least its not a repaint/recolor of an existing mold....hrrrmmm....Movie Bumblebee....hrmmmm...
What they needed to do to make this figure actually good: 1. Use the real colors of the arms and legs from the back of the box. 2. Remove that stupid antenna. 3. Allow the wings to fold back, not just up and down (1st ed did it perfectly) 4. Make the armor fit more snuggly to the chest, not protrude.
Starscream is my personal Favorite transformer.. That being said, The only representations of him (or any of the jets) I have are Masterpiece editions (and some TF Universe ones). The reason why is due to the horrible representation of the jet modes. My personal peeve is the amount of kibble they let hang. It doesnt look like a jet. Kibble is more forgivable in the ground based vehicles to me.. Just my .02
As far as repaints go, I liked Peaugh's suggestion of repainting it red and white and call it Terrorsaur. I think that would be a fun repaint and a nice way of homaging Terrorsaur's role as the Starscream of the Predacons.
Thanks for the Sunstrom idea. I have been thinking about this figure for a while and how much it would cost me to paint it but with Sunstrom i already have everything. Thank you.
Not to be a jerk, but I'm seeing a running theme of you missing small shoulder transformations. lol This dudes shoulderpads come up to give him a little more feel of the other version of Prime Starscream.
Decent mold but I can't get over the hideous colors- Im a perfectionist and colors that dont match just irritate me to no end. not getting me to buy this.
Good review. But man this figure just looks aweful. lol. Just god awful. Other than the predacons, im not likeing Beast Hunters at all. I suppose that gives me a chance to save and pick up am-12 Breakdown, since im not going to be buying much Beast Hunter stuff lol.
а зачем так делать я очень долго использовал для общения с американцеми , англечанинами и т.д и т.п их родные языки, а они так не делали. если сможешь понять меня скажи

You know the jet mode, and the drone, make me think of shoot 'em up games like Gradius, lots of them have some kind of stupid looking jets as well.

Hmm, nice review, Baltmatrix. You actually changed my mind on this toy with this review.
i think this figure would have made a good Cyclonus, or possibly Slipstream.
Lol. I hate it too, but that's what the "product and colors may vary" disclaimer is for.
From the looks of this Beast Hunters line theres going to be alot going on during the last 13 episodes of Prime
I think a cool repaint cool repaint would be a pre-beast war/ dawn of futures past Terrorsaur
I like the Sunstorm concept if this Starscream version =D that I WANT to see
I want a Beast Wars Terrorsaur repaint of this bad boy.
Dang u werent kidding about robotech dejavu
Man, he really needs a Swoop repaint.
I like the paint but I accept your opinion
Full Stop is the British/European equivalent of the American Period (Which you seem to be on)

That's why he didn't use it toward you.
Peaugh said starscream missies look like beast wars dapthcharge shark drones
okay, this would make a good Sunstorm, but I still couldn't care less for it.
you cant handle the terrorsaur
I would have loved if this had g1 colors
You know what i hate about the toys and the show is that none of these characters except optimus never underwent these upgrades
I Like the clench-sword, works form my armada galvatron.
i like the mold of the figure but the paint is a little off
I need this guy in other colors
one word Terrorsaur
Antenna for controlling the drone.
Please read the directions it explains what the weapon really is.
I thought you said you weren't going to get this figure
These types of alt modes with all the gear on them are not seen in the cartoon
Looks like swoop
It looked like it could also have a GERWALK mode. Does it?
I wonder if the will make an arcee figure
I hope they don't make him like this in the TV show..
He looks like he has birthing hips.
