TF Classics StarScream Masterpiece

First announced when the THS-02 Hybrid G1 convoy was released in early 2006. Multitudes of STARSCREAM fans eagerly anticipated this new edition to the premium Masterpiece line. Later on crazed STARSCREAM fans rejoiced when they received an announcement that the new STARSCREAM will be designed by MACROSS co-creator and original pre-Transformers Diaclone designer, Shoji Kawamori. This new mold as everyone was predicting was ripe for repainting to create the other seekers and coneheads.

Later, when the beta pics began leaking over the internet, everyone was crazed as STARSCREAM's robot mode looked exactly like he did in the old Generation 1 cartoons. Until a month later when the painted samples were revealed, everyone wondered why their favorite Decepticon Air Commander was painted blue, and his robot mode was only 10" tall. This led to some solid fans deciding to skip MP-3 altogether and wait for a show accurate version. Much like what they did to the G1 re-issue Transformers collection Starscream who was repainted to match his anime cartoon version.
