Good review, and the size comparisons are definitely appreciated for helping me consider a purchase (it took me ages to track down the approximate height of the Classics Deluxe Ramjet, for instance).
No but I watched MatrixPrime's review of it and he said it was really fragile and hard to transform. I do however have Starscream and he's a really nice figure, easy to transform and pretty tough too. But yeah I recomend you get him instead
I was playing the Decepticon campaign, just after Starscream's missions he's standing there in a cinematic and I thought "Wow, he looks authoritive, he's got his hands on his hips and everything, not wait, his hands are by his side? Then what the hell is all that? It's like a, i don't know, robot six pack
What's with all the Voyager Megatron hate? It's way better then the Leader Class...better then Voyager Starscream? no, but at least Megatron has hands!
it's because the movie megs be he leader or voyager kinda sucks quite a bit. I mean honestly what's with the ice chunks they look gay. Should of just made him a gun as it should of been instead of a lame as hell alien space jet thing. You want a good megatron, buy the classics one.
The only two bad things about Starscream is that he's too bulky and he doesn't have actual hands. Otherwise, good figure. I bought him at Wal-Mart, the last real Transformer from the movie.
I bought my Voyager Starscream from Wal*Mart too! He was kinda confusing to transform from robot to vehicle. I hope to find Voyager Prime someday as well.
wait a sec, wtf?! you bashed the shit out of Ratchet and rightfully so and gift it a 7/10...you are very positive on this and give it 6/10? Are lower numbers better with you?
Ratchet is the worst out of the bunch, very simple, poor detail and design and no gun
thankyou so much. I had problems with transforming his legs earlier, but after seeing your directions, I figured out how to do it. Their instructions can suck sometimes.
im spending 20 dollars today on TF figures. Should i get Voyager class starscream which is 20$ or deluxe barricade and deluxe wreckage which are 10$ each
WTF. These toys can't be for kids. Either that or we were dumbasses compared to kids today. I would have fucked up these toys in no time unless they were metal.
When you said that turning the lights off didn't help, you were wrong. I see things much better with the lights off rather than having the background glow as well as half of the figure.
This figure is awesome! Even though he doesn't have hands, I think he still looks cool. In fact, when the "fingers" are extended the guns look cooler when the "gimmick" is in action.
No hands, but so what? Guns for hands is pretty cool. I love this figure. It is certainly my favorite Voyager and probably my favorete movie toy thus far.
I like the "fingers" look of the missiles, but got really tired of having them shoot out constantly so I glued them into the gun barrels.
Not a bad figure, but certainly my least favorite Voyager class fig. I'll either hold out for the G1 repaint (rumored/semi-confirmed), Thundercracker repaint or until the price on this guy drops. Good review.
One question about the movie, tho: Is it coming out on the 3rd or 4th?? I keep seeing commercials on TV that say it's on the 3rd... but the TF website says the 4th... Which is right?
I don't have many complaints with Screamer at all. Not a fan of the bulky undercarriage, but that to me is a minor complaint. The visible bot head is kind disappointing, but again fairly minor. I hate how easy the missles fire though..like you can blow on the trigger and they launch (yes, I lost a missle >_>). Anyways, probably my second favorite movie figure. #1 of course is leader Prime.
There are tabs under the missile launchers on the bottom of the figure. You can pull these up and the missles wont automaticle fire when you roll the wheels.
I had this mold, but the legs, and other pieces got thrown away, and the missiles got lost, but the new mold looks better by FAR.

is Thundercracker just a repaint of starscream or are they different?
Godversion2 4 years ago
It is a repaint and slight re-mould.
The only difference is that Thundercracker's head is different.
An awesome figure none-the-less!
