Animated Review Thread

Some cartoon with big chins and a little girl that got beloved by fans and taken off TV to make way for a different show on another network. Yeah, that's fair.

His guns are gray instead of being bright orange missiles. Makes it closer to the show, IMO.

Well guns aside, I'd say the Voyager version still does a better job of capturing the show model, just because of how delightfully expressive the toy is. Love love love those hands. And frankly, I ADORE the orange sharkey missles. In this case, I wish the SHOW was more accurate to the TOY.

Do the hand constantly come off on yours?

Also, what is it about bright orange that you like?

I agree with BWprowl about wishing the show was more toy accurate in regards to Starscream's guns. It's not about the missiles for me, though, but their position on his arms. Mounting the guns on the lower arms makes a lot more sense to me than the upper arms.

Okay, dude, fucking stop with the shilling. We don't need you to plug a fucking movie, and we don't want you here if that's all you're going to do.

I PM'd him before, when it became clear he was either an exceptionally intelligent 'bot, or an exceptionally dumb human.

He is kinda funny, though.

spam.
I don't have blu ray, and why would I want to buy the same movie again just to get a mask that I'm sure I'll find on eBay this time tomorrow?

I'm going with the second option.

The hands stay on perfectly fine on mine, unless I pry them off (trying to close them in too tightly will cause this also, but you can usually feel when they're about to go, and stop before it happens).

As for the missiles, the ambery clear orange color that they are is nice enough, but I mostly love them for the little sharkey faces they have molded in (Thanks goes to '86 for pointing 'em out to me!). They are awesome and adorable and awesome.

I never noticed the shark faces. That's pretty cool.
As hf my TFA Starscream's hands, his right one just pops off for no reason. I think it's a QA thing.

I have the same problem. My hand pops off, just like Starscreams.

ERm....

Seriously, my SS hand just pops out. It is very annoying.
