"Who disrupts my coronation?!" "Coronation, Starscream? This is bad comedy." "Megatron? is that you?" "Here's a hint!" // Kills Starscream That scene is so badass.
"Get on with the ceremony!" Great quote. To this day, whenever I watch an Oscar ceremony, when it takes like 8 minutes of comedian/host time before the first award, I think about that line from Starscream.
Great review, found a easy fix for the chest piece, place a small amount of blutack on the peg and it will hold better, and it's easy to remove whenever you want to transform him.
hey @optibotimus ; don't worry of fret about these viewers who are difficult because i have a feeling they are really irking you. just know most of us appreciate you even taking the time to do this. so just remember even if you mess up or not do every little thing we ask ( which is impossible) we are still happy to have you. teambotimus forever.
I'm so glad I rewatched this review! I just recently picked up the Takara re-issue and thought mine was broken due to the fact the cockpit/chest piece doesn't lock into place. Relieved, sort of, that it was just made that way. Great review as always!!
On thundercracker you can have the missiles attached at the same time as the null rays. You just have the null rays hovering right below the missiles on those pieces. It looks really cool with both the null rays and missiles.
I guess I wouldn't say "hologram" as much as "translucent" for the pilot. I have the Walmart Skywarp, his nose tip broke off, used some super-glue, it's holding but when it snapped my heart broke. This Starscream is painted perfectly!
I'm sorry for my Codpiece suggestion. I don't own this mold but played with the original mold a lot. My main beef with the Thundercracker review was the guns not being plugged into the ball socket. I don't even remember it being mentioned. I was shocked as every other review I saw mentioned it. In retrospect, I see you must not have viewed any other MP11 reviews and Cheap Hasbro added an MP 03 set of instructions, so you wouldn't have known.
The wing problem you talk about at 19:13 is also a problem on my Masterpiece Acid Storm, though not consistently. Maybe they're using the Takara version of the mold for Acid Storm. Also, do you think it would be possible to get the chest to lock in properly if you sanded down the squared-off edges on the codpiece? Because I'm pretty sure that's the only thing keeping the tab on the back of his pelvis from locking into the hole in his torso.
The designer wanted to make a realistic jet mode for the mp3, to accommodate the bulky robot parts he decided to make the alt-mode an F-15 variant with a large curved undercarriage as the regular F-15 wouldn't fit it. But it gave Starscream's robot mode large kibble coming off his hips, apparently they were scabbards, the long things knights and samurai hold their swords in, but this was scrapped as being not show-accurate, but they still left the large hip kibble.
Glad you left in that bit about the cod piece breaking. Another great review. One day I hope to have this guy, but he is a low priority, since I have the MP03 mold with the coronation set :)
You should have turned the hand 90° so the back of the hand onely show in alt mold. It result in a sleeker transfometion and the hand actually getting hidden.
I'll have to get this. I had the MP3 Starscream but it fell and broke. I have the MP Skywarp with the MP3 mold and the new thundercracker. I need to complete the trio
Thanks again for the great review. Shame about the break but thank you for going that extra mile. I'm looking forward to getting this figure and hope to display him with galvatron's gun barrel facing him down in full corination regala. I'll then have his ghost also displayed somewhere close by.
I am still not sold on the MP11.The WM exl had better colours and shape. Plus the coronation set wasnt plastic but cloth which IDK It feels nice to me. On the MP11 Id give the feet design and the fact that you dont need to attach the plastics on his sides. Oh and the gun attachment.
I'd actually say the Walmart MP is more toy-accurate - the new one's lighter blue is definitely cartoon. Hoping this one comes to the US too. Can't see them redoing Skywarp, at least in the US anyway, after it sat on Walmart's shelves forever and ever. I think the only thing to make him more cartoon-accurate would be a brighter-yellow canopy.
With the MP-10 Prime and the MP-13 Starscream, do you think that we will get a new Megatron? That was a decent figure but could really use a good update.
Got this yesterday. Man the color and accuracy is sweet !!! Thing is this remold have better articulation than mp3. And there is a peg on the waist , I get the cockpit body to the peg and the body stays connected when I move the hands.
I have both this Takara and the KBB and the KBB blows it away in every way. But hey, both are worth about the same where I live but I think I'm still going sell the Takara.
inst the first mp seeker mold the changed one? because this looks a lot like the prototype images before the first starscream masterpiece release the first was supposed to be a more realistic jet mode
in my opinion, this looks more like his cartoon counterpart, mainly because on the toy he had a darker colored nosecone that really was reflected in the wal-mart exclusive while on the show his colors were more one toned and more or less constant from the cone to the thrusters.
Good review, did the exact same thing with the codpiece on my Thundercracker last week when I got him and cracked it! I was pretty bummed but like your's its not a bad break but still depressing when you spend the money on something and that happens.
I have no current master piece figures, would you recommend this, or thundercracker more, also just a side comment, how much did the combined cost of your two new seekers cost?
Great review :) How big is he with Grimlock and Rodimus? Are they all more or less the same size, with just Optimus and Megatron (first versions) being huge?
hey man, i just got my mp11 the other day, and as usal ill watch ur vids to refresh me about the figure, and to heed warnings too! Im sorry u broke the hinge or as i call the the crotch piece lol. I remember when i got my MP Voltron and the hinge to the red lion was cracked, i crazy glued it it held fine.....so then i to to transform the green lion and the paw just broke off, l was so gentle with it i couldnt believe how easy it snapped! its a crappy feeling!. Great job on the reveiws as always!
Just out of random what do you think of the hasbro acidstorm and sunstorm figures look wise? There not really main seekers but I would find it interesting to hear your opinion on them.
Sorry you broke it a bit. Starscream looks amazing! I noticed my Hot Rod MP-11 is a lot mor fragile than my Optimus prime MP-10. Keep up the great Reviews.
Hi optibotimus i never had MP starscream can you comment if MP11 scales better with MP10 in alt-mode? i figure, the jet planes should be bigger than a truck right? thanks in advance.
Optibotimus, you should be thanking Shoji Kawamori for this figure. Of course, what you fail to mention is that MP 03 has a better, cleaner jet mode, some trade offs had to be made for that in robot mode. This better represents the original prototype before Kawamori wanted a better jet mode for Screamer. In the end it is up to fans individual tastes to decide which is better.
the original MP screamer had the bot-mode compromised to have a accurate jet. It's the opposite for the new MP. This new mold is better because it marks starscream's big moment in the movie. If takara make a MP galvatron, then that would set it off to a tee
Hey Optibotimus, just wanted to know your thought on the Japanese BANDAI DX Chogokin Macross VF-25F VALKYRIE Transformer Jet? I don't know if your familiar with it. They look really nice though.
i remembered in your thundercracker review on him he had something that looked like soundwave and he had an image of reflector so u said we might get an mp reflector i saw on the walmart mp 03 he had an image of a crown and the shoulder pieces do u think that was a hint to getting the mp-11?
If you haven't already (i don't know if you mentioned it) you should display the mp-03 in jet with the stand and the mp-11 in robot. Helpful hint from your biggest fan, Ultimateadave :D
Jankarlo Mercado In the animation the Decepticon Insignia on the wings is upside down because there was an Decepticon Insignia in the other side of the wings is correctly in correct positions both wings thats four two at the back wings when he at in the robot mode and another two when Starscream is in his alt fighter jet mode
Great reviews! Can you review War For/Fall of Cybertron Starscream or any other decepticon from this franchise? Does any Transformers toy (from Prime, Movie or WFC/FoC toylines) are avaible in Tajikistan? I need them.
Speaking of the streamline in jet mode for the MP 03 and the niceties of the MP 11 in robot mode because of the lack of kibble, that's where iGear came into play and made the perfect mold. They retained the streamline of the MP 03 while simultaneously eliminating the kibble so you had the best of both worlds. Streamline and no kibble. It's ironic because iGear obviously ripped off Takara's original mold but they greatly improved it and in return, Takara obviously ripped off iGear's mold where the mold of the legs eliminating the kibble is concerned.
Cannot get enough of the -Masterpiece- Starscream Reviews! I Can't wait until i get them *MP-Hasbro and also a Custom of the original 3rd third TFC party cape and crown in the mail !!!!!lol
I like the legs and cape on this new one. But it's certainly not better in every way. Jet mode is far superior on MP-03, 03 has better paint apps IMO. I also like the smirk face on the old one, disappointing they didn't do the smirk on this one. Sucks there's no stand for this one too, the 03 stand is especially great for displaying jet mode, and for posing him taking off or "mid flight" kind of poses. I also modded the legs on my 03 to make them look a bit better. I would still consider picking this new one up if he was more reasonably priced. Sure wish Hasbro would go back to licensing MP's to Wall-mart. I picked up my MP Starscream and Skywarp both for only $20 apiece on clearance. Mp-01 Optimus for only $30. It's tough justifying spending 10x more for the same figure just to get a cape.
Hi LJTHEBEST here and when megatron isnt around I like to watch video reviews from optibotimus. Did I say that right, where's my check. Hey optibotimus do you think youll do reprolables?
"Who disrupts my coronation?!"
"Coronation, Starscream? This is bad comedy."
"Megatron? is that you?"
"Here's a hint!" // Kills Starscream
That scene is so badass.
Rob749s best scene in the whole move!
Whats his name again ??
gaallvaatroon !!?
"Get on with the ceremony!" Great quote. To this day, whenever I watch an Oscar ceremony, when it takes like 8 minutes of comedian/host time before the first award, I think about that line from Starscream.
Coronation, Starscream? That's just bad comedy...
"this is starscream. all decepticons mobilize"
Now all you need is galvatron to kill him
Lol good one
Megatron I dont feel so good
Great review, found a easy fix for the chest piece, place a small amount of blutack on the peg and it will hold better, and it's easy to remove whenever you want to transform him.
What a masterpiece!!! It´s awesome!!! Following your reviews since 2010!. Keep it up!
hey @optibotimus ; don't worry of fret about these viewers who are difficult because i have a feeling they are really irking you. just know most of us appreciate you even taking the time to do this. so just remember even if you mess up or not do every little thing we ask ( which is impossible) we are still happy to have you. teambotimus forever.
This is definatley my favorite Masterpiece and my favorite review of your masterpiece reviews :)
"Who disrupts my coronation!?"
Coronation Dakota? This is bad comedy.
Nerdy Nachos Nerdy Nachos? Is that you!?
HERE"S A HINT!
I'm so glad I rewatched this review! I just recently picked up the Takara re-issue and thought mine was broken due to the fact the cockpit/chest piece doesn't lock into place. Relieved, sort of, that it was just made that way.
Great review as always!!

In retrospect, I see you must not have viewed any other MP11 reviews and Cheap Hasbro added an MP 03 set of instructions, so you wouldn't have known.
Damn I want a Starscream.
after watching so many of your G1 reviews, MP-11s are those you praised most.
The wing problem you talk about at 19:13 is also a problem on my Masterpiece Acid Storm, though not consistently. Maybe they're using the Takara version of the mold for Acid Storm. Also, do you think it would be possible to get the chest to lock in properly if you sanded down the squared-off edges on the codpiece? Because I'm pretty sure that's the only thing keeping the tab on the back of his pelvis from locking into the hole in his torso.
The reason for MP-03's sleekness is because the jet mode is based off of the F-15E Strike Eagle, while MP-11 is based off of the F-15C Eagle
Always gotta wonder why people argue with you on your vids, even though you're right most of the time and your reviews are pretty damn good :O
The designer wanted to make a realistic jet mode for the mp3, to accommodate the bulky robot parts he decided to make the alt-mode an F-15 variant with a large curved undercarriage as the regular F-15 wouldn't fit it. But it gave Starscream's robot mode large kibble coming off his hips, apparently they were scabbards, the long things knights and samurai hold their swords in, but this was scrapped as being not show-accurate, but they still left the large hip kibble.
Only issue with the new issue is it doesn't have panel lining,but that can be fixed with a panel line marker.
Jobby fans, when you at?
Blalalalallaalallalalalalala
RADTITTARIAUS THIS IS BAD COMEDY. Im a fan too. + BEAUTIFUL SPREAD.
S W I V E L H E R E
Glad you left in that bit about the cod piece breaking. Another great review. One day I hope to have this guy, but he is a low priority, since I have the MP03 mold with the coronation set :)
botitmus ur the one who got me to start buying more transformers and i want to thank u keep up the video's
Great review! I can't wait for the Voltron Black tiger review in october! Keep up the great vids!
You should have turned the hand 90° so the back of the hand onely show in alt mold. It result in a sleeker transfometion and the hand actually getting hidden.
I'll have to get this. I had the MP3 Starscream but it fell and broke. I have the MP Skywarp with the MP3 mold and the new thundercracker. I need to complete the trio
Just a heads up, the fingers on MP-11's Left hand were turned the wrong way around. Just thought I'd let you know
Thanks again for the great review. Shame about the break but thank you for going that extra mile. I'm looking forward to getting this figure and hope to display him with galvatron's gun barrel facing him down in full corination regala. I'll then have his ghost also displayed somewhere close by.
I am still not sold on the MP11.The WM exl had better colours and shape. Plus the coronation set wasnt plastic but cloth which IDK It feels nice to me. On the MP11 Id give the feet design and the fact that you dont need to attach the plastics on his sides. Oh and the gun attachment.
Awesome review of a gorgeous figure. I wish the PS4 wasn't coming out so soon so I could buy this. I'll own it one day.
I'd actually say the Walmart MP is more toy-accurate - the new one's lighter blue is definitely cartoon. Hoping this one comes to the US too. Can't see them redoing Skywarp, at least in the US anyway, after it sat on Walmart's shelves forever and ever. I think the only thing to make him more cartoon-accurate would be a brighter-yellow canopy.
With the MP-10 Prime and the MP-13 Starscream, do you think that we will get a new Megatron? That was a decent figure but could really use a good update.
anyone think we'll get a Skywarp from this mold?
Got this yesterday. Man the color and accuracy is sweet !!! Thing is this remold have better articulation than mp3. And there is a peg on the waist , I get the cockpit body to the peg and the body stays connected when I move the hands.
Great review but there is also a coronation substorms and the set can be put on thundercracker you should check it out
Thank U, I also suggested the codpiece thing, and I'm glad U showed that it wouldn't work, otherwise if and when I got mine, mine would be broken
You made the decision for me, this one looks great. Thanks for the review bud.
I have this one too - for once lol - he is indeed awesome! I missed the Hasbro version, and am so glad I hung on for this one!
Cool review dude
I have both this Takara and the KBB and the KBB blows it away in every way. But hey, both are worth about the same where I live but I think I'm still going sell the Takara.
inst the first mp seeker mold the changed one? because this looks a lot like the prototype images before the first starscream masterpiece release
the first was supposed to be a more realistic jet mode
I Love How He's Like "Yea Betch. I Da King."
in my opinion, this looks more like his cartoon counterpart, mainly because on the toy he had a darker colored nosecone that really was reflected in the wal-mart exclusive while on the show his colors were more one toned and more or less constant from the cone to the thrusters.
"...I'm gonna zoom in here..."
-Zooms in-
Me: CROTCH.
Good review, did the exact same thing with the codpiece on my Thundercracker last week when I got him and cracked it! I was pretty bummed but like your's its not a bad break but still depressing when you spend the money on something and that happens.
you are the best review guy I have ever see
Have you not listened to his complaints about the MP-03? He's asking for Skywarp in this better mold.
MP-03 wins the jet mode and MP-11 wins the robot mode .
I'm getting both for different modes .Great review!
I have no current master piece figures, would you recommend this, or thundercracker more, also just a side comment, how much did the combined cost of your two new seekers cost?
It's Fire on the Mountain, did you get that title from the TFSource video?
what about the missles in jet mode under the wings perhaps diagnol with the null rays on his arms?
Here in the Philippines,we have a Takara Tomy Masterpiece being sold in our local Toys R' Us
costing P4000 above.
Great review :) How big is he with Grimlock and Rodimus? Are they all more or less the same size, with just Optimus and Megatron (first versions) being huge?
hey man, i just got my mp11 the other day, and as usal ill watch ur vids to refresh me about the figure, and to heed warnings too! Im sorry u broke the hinge or as i call the the crotch piece lol. I remember when i got my MP Voltron and the hinge to the red lion was cracked, i crazy glued it it held fine.....so then i to to transform the green lion and the paw just broke off, l was so gentle with it i couldnt believe how easy it snapped! its a crappy feeling!. Great job on the reveiws as always!
When are they going to make more new starscream toys?
It is pre-order everywhere for Feb/Mar. Place an order now before secoanrd market spike the price!
Just out of random what do you think of the hasbro acidstorm and sunstorm figures look wise? There not really main seekers but I would find it interesting to hear your opinion on them.
Sorry you broke it a bit. Starscream looks amazing! I noticed my Hot Rod MP-11 is a lot mor fragile than my Optimus prime MP-10. Keep up the great Reviews.
Hi optibotimus i never had MP starscream can you comment if MP11 scales better with MP10 in alt-mode? i figure, the jet planes should be bigger than a truck right? thanks in advance.
About 5 years later and we just got a new MP Megatron, still no Galvatron, Cyclonus, Astrotrain, Blitzwing, or Insecticons...
You should do a video tour of your display areas for your transformers.
Optibotimus, you should be thanking Shoji Kawamori for this figure. Of course, what you fail to mention is that MP 03 has a better, cleaner jet mode, some trade offs had to be made for that in robot mode. This better represents the original prototype before Kawamori wanted a better jet mode for Screamer. In the end it is up to fans individual tastes to decide which is better.
Do you think your going to review the MP-10 Optimus in the future?
the original MP screamer had the bot-mode compromised to have a accurate jet. It's the opposite for the new MP. This new mold is better because it marks starscream's big moment in the movie. If takara make a MP galvatron, then that would set it off to a tee
@optibotimus- WHEN ARE U GOING TO REVIEW THE MP 10 OPTIMUS PRIME? AND THE THUNDERCRACKER FROM HASBRO HAS THE SAME PROBLEM ON THE WING IT POPS OFF
Great interview. I would add that the light blue is on the arms and feet is actually accurate to the cartoon.
+bandoogiemanz interveiw??
Joshua Bailey my mistake i meant review not interview
Ohhhhhhhhh
Hey Optibotimus, just wanted to know your thought on the Japanese BANDAI DX Chogokin Macross VF-25F VALKYRIE Transformer Jet? I don't know if your familiar with it. They look really nice though.
Is there anywhere online I can find this aside from Ebay? I've tried as many places as I could think of.
i remembered in your thundercracker review on him he had something that looked like soundwave and he had an image of reflector so u said we might get an mp reflector i saw on the walmart mp 03 he had an image of a crown and the shoulder pieces do u think that was a hint to getting the mp-11?
I have to find a skywarp and sunstreaker version of this guy!it looks awesome!
also good review
I would love to see Remoldsof this in the Cone-Head Thrust, Dirge and Ramjet versions.
I love your reviews... keep em coming
If you haven't already (i don't know if you mentioned it) you should display the mp-03 in jet with the stand and the mp-11 in robot. Helpful hint from your biggest fan, Ultimateadave :D
I wonder if Takara will ever make a better version of the Headmasters Autobot and decepticon, including Scorponok (Lord Zarak) and Fortress Maximus
Coronation accessories is nice touch to this already very good figure.
Hey, what's the difference between mp11 starscream and mp07? Not colouring but transformation-wise?
Jacques Chueke They're completely different molds.
Hey optibotimus did you noticed that the decepticon symbols on starscream's wings are upside down
They were like that in the cartoon.
Jankarlo Mercado
In the animation the Decepticon Insignia on the wings is upside down because there was an Decepticon Insignia in the other side of the wings is correctly in correct positions both wings thats four two at the back wings when he at in the robot mode and another two when Starscream is in his alt fighter jet mode
Were can I get the mp transformers is the a site I can order them from and Wut do they coast roughly and Wut one should I start with thanks
amazing. i was not around when g1 transformers was around but i love it
Can't wait to get mines!
Great reviews! Can you review War For/Fall of Cybertron Starscream or any other decepticon from this franchise? Does any Transformers toy (from Prime, Movie or WFC/FoC toylines) are avaible in Tajikistan? I need them.
Have you found a way to lock in the torso?
do you know when this figure is released in the U.S.?
I watch pretty much all your videos and they are always so cool, Always making me want more figures! I blame you for my lack of money :P
optibotimus have mp 3 in jet mode on the display stand and mp 11 in robot mode ps do you know when mp 10 hasbro version is coming out
Using Google lens I can tell you it says they made the head smaller to make it more like the animation
Speaking of the streamline in jet mode for the MP 03 and the niceties of the MP 11 in robot mode because of the lack of kibble, that's where iGear came into play and made the perfect mold.

Hey Optibotimus, will you be getting the Hasbro Masterpice Skywarp?
Are u gettin the retail version of bruticus and the new foc figures
Good gawd I want this so badly~ where can I purchase him?
optibotimus do you think they will mske a ramjet,derg,and thrust figs?
Cannot get enough of the -Masterpiece- Starscream Reviews!
I Can't wait until i get them *MP-Hasbro and also a Custom of the original 3rd third TFC party cape and crown in the mail !!!!!lol
I like the legs and cape on this new one. But it's certainly not better in every way.

It's tough justifying spending 10x more for the same figure just to get a cape.
Are you planning to get the Masterpiece Soundwave?
also the fact that the wal-mart one has all of the arrow like details from the toy and his hands were the lighter blue
Hi LJTHEBEST here and when megatron isnt around I like to watch video reviews from optibotimus. Did I say that right, where's my check. Hey optibotimus do you think youll do reprolables?
@optibotimus it did come out as a toysrus Exclusive I think.
Get your TRU exclusive grey Starscream dust and Galvatron 2 pack
Dear Optibotimus will you be making a video of the Gremlins Figure and start an Alien figure episodes
