\"\"<\/a>As the end of the year draws closer, I find myself trying to catch up on some older reviews that I haven’t gotten around to yet. So in order to save a little time and hopefully fit more things into my schedule, I’m going to have a few “quick looks” at some repaints.<\/p>\n

Some of my most favorite Transformers toys have come from Prime’s First Edition line, and their version of Starscream is at the top of my list. This figure’s sculpt and articulation exude personality and I find myself picking up each repaint that comes down the line.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This particular version comes from the Bumblebee vs. Starscream Entertainment two-pack.\u00a0 This set original came with another version of Bumblebee and posed figures of Silas and a MECH soldier.\u00a0 Luckily I was able to skip out on the other figures from the set thanks to a fellow collector in Australia (Thanks again, Tom!).\u00a0 This is great news for my collection, but a bit monotonous for a review since I’ve technically looked at this figure three times already.\u00a0 So instead of a full review, I’m just going to mention a couple things and leave you with some pictures.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This biggest difference with this figure is his paint job.\u00a0 The darker and more metallic grays and silvers of the original Starscream have been replaced with light gray and highlights in purple and white.\u00a0 At first I was trying to figure out who this new addition to my jet army could be, but a quick look at TFwiki<\/a> led me to the conclusion that he could easily be one of the many nameless gray\/lavender Seekers that popped up in the background of the original show.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Although this figure was readily available in Asia, he’s still a product of Hasbro and not Takara.\u00a0 So instead of the glued on bombs, this Starscream get the double missile pod that can attach underneath his wings or on his forearms.\u00a0 I’m actually glad that the Takara and Hasbro figures have different weapons.\u00a0 It helps add a bit of diversity to the growing ranks that use this mold.\u00a0 Now if only they could figure out how to do a few cone heads.<\/p>\n
