grimlockdown , we get our first actual look at the newly repurposed







Thanks once again to weibo user Starscream韋 , and via a tip from Seibertronian, we get our first actual look at the newly repurposed Generations Leader Jetfire as the head of the Seekers himself, ruler of Cybertron, fabulous miscreant and Chosen One - Lord Starscream. Check out the images below, showing off the character's traditional deco, complete with null rays, arm cannons and a coronation crown that seems straight from the animation *and* IDW comics.

Actually this was somewhat confirmed through either a toysrus of Wal-Mart product registry much like the past few years of generations toys.

Just not used to seeing the Seekers as tall as Skyfire........ I learned from Thumper's mom that if you have nothing nice to say, don't say it........but the mold sure looks good on StarscreamJust not used to seeing the Seekers as tall as Skyfire........

Wow. Starscream is one big-headed Seeker. Though, not as better than the Cybertron Supreme Class Starscream, for this new one lacks color. Posted by OptimalOptimus2 on May 11th, 2015 @ 3:03am CDT

Ultra Magnus and G1 Megs are musthaves for me. Pity Megs is not (yet) at retail here and it's also a pity no Dutch webshop has got him in stock anymore...



And now Starscream... My money's disappearing faster than it should this year. Posted by MarkNL on May 11th, 2015 @ 3:16am CDT

So the in box pics of UM show Ambus on the outside, which means that you can have both in Robot mode separate from each other. That makes more sense for the Takara version, a little bit mind you, in that you can have Alpha Trion as a separate character, since Trion shouldn't be inside Magnus, as far as any fiction I personally know of. The only big downside for the Takara version is that Trion is so tiny. I'm still getting the Hasbro version, I don't think the changes between the 2 are worth the import prices.



As far as the leader class Starscream, I'm not digging it. Seekers are supposed to be small, nimble and fast. Not towering over everyone else. More for those who like it... Posted by Stryfe Convoy on May 11th, 2015 @ 3:41am CDT

Damn, that Ambus is an ugly little thing. Needs a hankerchief to wipe that dribbly sneezy snot off his face and chest and niether mode looks good. Just throw it away and pretend that IDW story never happened.





Starscream looks ok at that size but the wing backpack looks terrible as it's all the bad almost 'wireframe' looking under-side showing from the front view and makes him look cheap. Acceptable I suppose on a small figure but just looks ugly on a large one. Could use more paint apps but that's easily fixed. Posted by Carnivius_Prime on May 11th, 2015 @ 4:30am CDT

Damn, just ebayed him last week for a little 80 eurios

Oh well, lowest he'll be in The Netherlands is 60 eurios I guess. Patience isn't my strongest suit.



Ontopic:

Ultra Magnus is just, ... so great. And the Masterpiece is also great.



I'm not going to collect the leader Seekers, but they do look good. If their heads were more G1 I might be tempted.

But they were never together onscreen. But they were never together onscreen. Don't care. Would make more sense than Trion since Raikuru is a Micromaster and supposed to be tiny. And would give us the first toy of another obscure cartoon-only Japanese-original character. Takara could come up with some story in their pack-in Legends manga to explain why the two come together.

Still. Raikuru would best come with Star saber than UM. It's just to far a stretch to link them. Still. Raikuru would best come with Star saber than UM. It's just to far a stretch to link them. Posted by fenrir72 on May 11th, 2015 @ 6:02am CDT

Friggin'. Called. It.



I had a feeling that "gem" in his forehead wasn't just for show.



I might grab one for the 'Screamer display to represent the IDW version of the character. Probably not going to do the whole Seeker affair if Skywarp is made. Already did it with Fall of Cybertron , I'm trying to do it with Classics now, and I'm waiting on Legends Skywarp to finish the set. Posted by Mindmaster on May 11th, 2015 @ 7:22am CDT
