Well. I be honest. My Sideswipe figure's front chestpiece doesn't wanna plug in to the torso at all. It seems it's the same problem with dvery Siege WFC figure
I LOVE this figure! As a die hard Starscream fan I was so glad they did such a good job on this mold. All the joints are nice and tight and is so nice after that horrible potp one. Can't wait for the other seekers.
I'm really digging the springy "fake" shins gimmick. It fills up hollow gaps on the legs and at the same time gives some extra range of articulation on Starscream's knees.
yeah, same here. i didn't realize it was a spring gimmick filler until i shot the transformation. definitely. he'll look good on a clear stand in fllight poses
I got him online along with Soundwave and lazerbeak and ravage. Thank you for your reviews and in being one of the few reviewers that starts is reviews the right way from robot mode to vehicle mode the way is suppose to be
@@JoseFlores-xc7wu awesome, glad you got those as well. collectors have been snatching them up everywhere. hey, thanks bro, that means a lot! i really appreciate all the support :-)
None of the figures in this wave got me too excited and I wasn't really sold on the Cybertronian alt modes until I saw this guy. He looks awesome! Can't wait to get one!
Great review I have starscream, and just picked up the rain makers. I have thundercracker in order, hopefully they make skywarp. I have got almost all of them. Best line hasbro has done. Masterpiece is great but too expensive!
After forever regretting burying my starscream in a school time capsule when I was 6, FINALLY there is a worthy replacement for me to obtain him again 30+ years later!
I like Siege Starscream, Thundercracker and Skywarp... As Sunstorm, Acid Storm and Nova Storm respectively! P.S. I'll wait for Siege Thundercracker... for next years Clearanced!
Starscream and Thundercracker can be in your collection but skywarp is only special for walmart shop ( so if you have walmart shop in your location you can have it)
I want Hasbro to give us another galvatron omg! I would love to see how it would come out in the siege line. They gave us magnus come on Hasbro please! 😊
I wonder if they intended to have the null rays cannons as sniper rifles this time around? Looks like there's targeting scopes molded on the top. Face ain't quite G1, though (should be gunmetal gray; only Skywarp, Thundercracker, Sunstorm, and the Rainmakers had silver faces); CW, PotP, & FoC Starscream all had this facial fumble as well. Nitpicking at this point, because clearly, there's no intent of doing it right anymore outside of the Masterpiece. As for me, I gotta give it second place to the old midgety Classics mold, firmly kicking the even tinier FoC mold outta that spot; that design stupidiocy of *NOT* having the chest pinned in place (at least it didn't fall off with your copy, but I've seen it happen to several other reviewers) is simply inexcusable for a thirty dollar figure.
yes, good points bro. i'm still hoping hastaktom will give us a voyager class version of that deluxe seeker mold. not a straight oversize but with new engineering
The fig is very tantalizing! Saw him along with Siege Voyager Soundwave and the rest of wave 2 when I bought SWFC Ironhide and SS-38 OP. Sooo wanted to get him ryt then and there. But I'm holding out until they release him with a pin for his chest piece. And I didn't wan to burn a big hole through my wallet in one day 😂
The pin right now, is but rumors. There is no evidence what so ever that there will be a pin version. More so it looks like the chest was made to have a pin, while the clip never has holes in the first place. That would suggest they tried a pin and abandoned that. For whatever reason.
he's quite alright without the pin. if you really wanted to, you could add a pin yourself. i reckon stocks of wave 2 siege figures are going to be scarce. get them while you can bro.
I cannot get the damn head to fold in flat and that is holding me up transforming him because the thrusters will not properly tab in unless the head is completely flat in that space and it's really frustrating me.
It won't go completely flush. I've found it actually helps to NOT tab the gray piece behind the head into it and just push both back individually. That actually allows me to snap the engines fully into place on my figure.
There's actually been no confirmation that his chest having a pin is anything more than a rumor. The only place there is any evidence for it is one post that someone made, which is likely just a custom pin they inserted themself.
@@chefatron Yeah, all the reviewers I've seen plus all the posts on reddit have only found non-pinned versions, so it really doesn't seem like it's an actually change.
i'm not sure man. i've only seen him in hobby shops. stocks for retail stores like toy kingdom, toys r us, etc. haven't made it to their respective stores because some brilliant fellow is selling most of the local hasbro importer's stocks from the trunk of his automobile...
@@tunching8049 i don't think this is a scalper. he's very much connected with the owner of the company that imports the bulk of Hasbro toys to the Ph. he gets first dibs on the collector toys. so he can sell them privately (without receipts or taxes or rent) from the comfort of his car thru meet ups.
