Hasbro- Fall of Cybertron: Starscream



One of the many things that left an impression on me from the very first 10 minutes of the first episode of the Generation 1 Transformers cartoon was the design of what eventually became to be known as the Seekers. Something about a pyramid or tent cruising around the futuristic landscape of Cybertron really left an impression on me and I do not think that I am the only one given all the figures released with this similar aesthetic. Unfortunately Fall of Cybertron did not go full pyramid on this Cybertron version of Starscream, but there are certainly some similarities that can’t be overlooked.

Pros: Overall Starscream is a nice looking figure in both vehicle and robot mode, has a relatively simple transformation and comes with two rather massive weapons.

Cons: The articulation scheme is a bit wonky and doesn’t allow for many fluid poses. Also, because of his shoulder intakes his peripheral vision would be all by blocked and he really can only look straight ahead.
