Transformers United Seekers: Aces Boxset.
Using Universe Starscream or Classics Starscream's mold, the toymakers re-issued this box set.
This is probably the 5th version of starscream.
The box art is nice and it scores with that treacherous look on Starscream....
Tech specs at the back of the box...
The mold seems ok with the figure looking fine...straight lines no visually no signs of mold deterioration. But if you actually play with it, some parts of the toy is very tight. Compared to Henkei, the playability has taken a step back.
Paint job is really crap...though there's some brownie points with those metallic shiny paint...but the paint detailing is downright pathetic, really.
Missile launchers and missiles looked as if they had just came out of the mold...no paint job at all...
Shoulders, no paint job...
Paint details on the knee and crotch...gone...
Simialr for Skywarp and Thundercracker...paint details' gone..it seems that they tried to replace all those tiny details with the metallic paint and hope that the market respond : "WOW, TT finally out did themselves!!!"
no way man...
Took out my Henkei Starscream and did a pictorial comparison...here you have Henkei on left and Boxset on right..
wrong orientation guys, bear with me...Henkei on right and Boxset on left.
The faction symbols: Henkei, on clear...Boxset on silver.
Boxset has shiny boosters..
Look at the difference in detailing...
Henkei Starscream
Boxset Starscream
Missile launchers...Henkei on the left and Boxset on the right....just pathetic...
