  • he's a sukhoi su-47 berkut jet.

  • Comment removed

  • hey you forgot to mention that you can push the arm guns forward andthe side panels come out looks very cool:)

    the back wing things that hide the arms when in jet form are backwards in mine SUCKS

  • If you watch Stopmotionjr's review of Starscream, he looks like a star.

  • heehee... Yes i said doozy

  • In the animated transformers there was a Transformer that was blue and red.

  • yeh i'll get him

  • hes a su 47

  • these are real jets, its not a new concept by hasbro, these jets have been around for at least a decade. im not a military buff, but i remember seeing these on Popular Mechanics for Kids when i was in gradeschool

  • I think the Missles are facing backwards to simulate thrusters

  • fuck you

  • fag

  • I nearly shot myself in the eye a few times"

    Priceless, 5/5.

  • You can also pop out the sides of his gauntlets. However I have the Skywarp repaint and find it impossible to get him into a perfect jet. The springs are stupidly inconvenient.

  • ooo look at me big and bad on fucking ebay while poor ole leopolds skinny ass is freaking frozen cuz I went an run outta matches. losers.

    also send me some damn handwarmers!!!! my balls hurt cuz id so freakin cold .

  • your gramatical capabilities are painful...

  • I'm gay?... man i you made me upset...how couls you insult me soo bad?... people like you shouldn't have the right to be on the internet.

  • A repaint in the g1 colours would be nice...

  • ok now we are doing a review of transformers animated deluxxe starscream and you all ready known that starscream is a backwers jet

  • dude he looks looks like that on the show

  • Man you should give yourself an 10/10 for just shooting yourself with a toy.

  • what about the other decepticon seekers? is Hasbro going to release them too as repaint fo starscream?I wonder how thundercracker is gonna look like,I mean the colour scheme...and what about the female seeker??

  • oh my god, starscream is the BIGGEST PAIN IN THE ASS TO TRANSFORM TO A PLANE!!! Jesus Christ!

  • shut the fuck up no he is not a pain the ass to transform

  • where did you get that

  • he said ebay

  • yeah he did coz he got it of ebay

  • he said he got on the internet dumbass

  • That kind of technology is being used in military jets today to improve speed. And since the show takes place 50 years in the future, it is possible that the U.S.A.F. could imrove that kind of technology even more by reversing the tailfins as well.

  • LOL you shot yourself in the eye i would probubly do that if i got that :P

  • He's not actually a "Backwards" jet. I don't know about the rudders - that seems like it's stretching it, but the forward-swept wing design is actually a real design. Some US test planes use it, and the Russian Sukhoi Su-47 "Berkut" uses it. The design provides a number of advantages, but - and somebody please correct me if I'm wrong - I've heard that it is also somewhat unstable.

  • Uhh....Keyword being: Experimental! Yeah! That's why it's not that known to everyone. It IS being used but only in few fighter and bomber jets.

  • Yes, definitely. The design must have some big problems with it, or else more of our planes would be using the design instead of keeping their conventional wings, if it would improve maneuverability as much as I've read it would. Do you think we'll ever see more designs using forward-swept wings in the future?

  • I have just purchased a starscream voyager from Transformers Animated. It is awesome!

  • i always shoot myself when i transform him

  • Yes you can rotate the head from side to side. Is ball joint mounted.

  • But yes it is an awsome jet mode

  • It's not backwords it's called a Delta Wing

  • uhh the head does have side to side movement, at least on the production figure...

  • it looks very cool

  • starscreams jet mde is awsome!1

  • you forgot to mention that the missiles have faces ^^ (no joke really)

  • why do they have a faces?

  • i have no idea its weird

  • can any1 tell me shall i buy voyager prime or starscream

  • starscream hes kickass

  • starscream

  • It's not exactly called a backward jet, that's a Su-47

  • You forgot a gimick! If you take the arm mounted cannon, and push it toword you, a megatron like cannon pops out of the crevises on his arm!

  • i dont know if i should buy him,but that version dosent come with instrucions?! if transformers never came with instrucions i would never know how to transform them.

  • man i hope hasbro is gonna fix the joints on the legs in because in the video he looks like crap

  • they did now they are great knocking joints

  • the upper torso clicks together with the waist and the head can move significantly to the side its just a really tight joint.

  • head does have side to side movement

  • the store version has a darker blue so it looks more cartoon acurate. SWEET so happy!D

  • Its a forward swept jet, not backwards..

  • question, was the action on your starscream at all losey goosey ? cause i recently acquired one retail and had to go back and tighten all the screws myself, as the thumbs and fingers kept falling off, and also for some reason not stated on the instructions the forearm dose this weird thing about opening into 2 side panels on either side when the blaster is pushed forward and close when pushed backwards

  • STILL buy this toy though. hes freaking awesome....the retailer i bought it from exchanged it for me just like any major store would. thie animated line is awesome.

  • i just got mine. his right shoulder is the blue color of the rest of his body.....and the left one is red....he also has a paint flaw under his eye. this pissed me off greatly.

  • My starscream fell apart immediately.

    Cheap ass plastic.

  • starscream has a great automorph nice review

  • Kickass jet indeed. Can't wait to get him.

  • I love the toy, and it looks like it will be on my bookshelf protecting it from Autobot scum as soon as it's released. The only issue I have is the blue colorscheme. I'd like to see the purple, maroon, gray, and black from the cartoon, but that can be solved with some paint it isn't changed with the store release. =)

    Execellent review. ^^

  • ya. i know

  • the blue ruins it for me... =(

  • I just bought Starscream, expecting him in a couple days

  • 2 things 1,why do you think he is blue, ande 2 suker you almost got shot in the eye me :) haha you :( waaaa i almost got shot in the eye

  • Now the Animated Transformers Cartoon didn't impress me much but that is a damn awesome toy. I would almost be willing to shell over 20 dollars for it. Tnanks for your review MatrixPrime

  • I agree. Im a huge Transformers Movie series action figure fan, but this one doesnt seem too bad. However, packaging is half the fun - the quality of packaging can make or break a line of toys. I keep a lot of my toys unopened in their boxes. Ones I want to play with I plan on buying doubles. I love my toys ;) At the moment I can afford it, maybe I will have to change this way of buying when I go back to uni and don't work full time. Cheers MatrixPrime

  • too much automorphing for my taste.

  • carful with those eyes!:)

  • His transfermation is like movie proto starscream

  • i always l0ve starscream..

    :)

  • me need 1

  • He's not backwards. Like Norc1nu said, they make a lot of jets with the wings forward swept like that nowadays. It helps with low-speed maneuvering. However, they are more unstable (just like Starscream! XD) depending on how far forward they are swept.

    Anyway, thanks for reviewing TF:A Starscream. I was thinking of getting him, and now I think I will ^__^

  • Not a backwards jet, a jet with forward swept wings and swept forward vertical fins! Geez, there's nothing reversed about the design, it gives a jet tons more maneuverability and agility. Just letting you know ;D

  • were u buy him

  • Starscream Leans wit it and rocks wit it lol

  • i dont know how he is able to fly with those backwards wings i mean it would mess up his navigation for those of you that know about planes and cars. but then again hes a cybertronian, and like everyone says transformers and especially hasbro dont give a shit about logic!

  • There are actually several real planes that have 'reversed' wings. Apparently it makes them faster, more stable, and better able to take off.

  • I guess his hands don't rotate.

  • in the store release the tailfins are right.

  • this reminds me of my old robotec

  • im gonna try to get animated leader class megatron

  • I'm going to get him or Grimlock I can't decide which

  • lucky

  • looks More like thundercracker

  • Thundercracker looked a LOT like Starscream in the G1 cartoon too.

  • Him,Thundercracker and Skywarp where EXACTLY the same(except in color scheme)

  • how much was he?

  • I think they should repaint him into Skywarp, and they should call this guy thundercracker and repaint him into normal Starscream colors.

  • are u asking about its price zakkmiester?

    coz, thats what i understood.

    the price is malaysian ringgit (MR)110...or about USD27.80.

    how much u bought matrixprime?

  • i know what i want for my birthday :D

  • so, how much doth it costith?

  • and i guess the two panels at back are the balancer.

    they hold back the figure from falling frontward.

    thats what my starscream does.

  • well,

    i bought my starscream last week.

    it's so hard to get it here in malaysia.

    but luckily there's one store sold it and and i bought it, and only one was available..

    it was outboxed, so i have to watch your video to get the instructions.

    thanks bro!!

  • every starscream figure has sensetive guns! WHY GOD DID I HAVE TO GO BLIND! (kidding)

  • transformers cybertron sideways got backwards wing to!

  • transformers cybertron sideways got backwards wing to!

  • backwards jet...? wow....

  • i know... he's blue

  • i dont know what happened but im pretty sure i commented you saying that the back panels might be rudders for flight in robot mode

  • i kind of like him but lugnut and blitwing i think will be better

  • i like starscream

  • how did you get him unless you dont live in the U.S

  • EBAY!!!

  • if its a backwords jet it cant fly fastthats the whole point of jets

  • backwards jets are made for manuverability not speed

  • nonetheless, it is still very fast ive seen a real backwards jet fly

  • i know your a transformer guy- but your rreally good at this- could you review a halo figure?

  • Have you even seen the show? Its G1 version 2. And these are the most accurate transformers toys ever, so what do you like?

  • I saw sum other reviews and the head should be able to move side 2 side and there should also b that arm extend gimmik with pulling the gun and pannels come out

  • coooooooooool!

  • i marked the realese on my transformers calander lol cant wait

  • LOL, the toy has a Gerwalk mode!

  • duh.......it's like collecting pokemon cards....it may be kid stuff, but what else are you going to do with you're time? Btw....cool review dude who made this.

    STARSCREAM ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!

  • I don't see what's wrong with that. Who makes toys? Adults. Who tests toys during production? Adults. Who reviews toys for catalogs and other advertising materials? Adults. It's a hobby. He can collect his toys, just like you enjoy flaming someone for reviewing toys. Only his hobby doesn't reveal an assinine personality. >_>

  • Well said!

  • Thank you. ^_^

  • I admit that stascream looks kinda cool

  • Signed. I'm not a collecter but I did submit to the temptation of buying 2 Movie transformers. They're fun to pose on the desk and I really like the way they transform.

  • I'd rather have an Adult review toys than a kid who would break it when they transform it wrong!

  • Awesome

  • hey when do they come out in the stores ?? matrixprime ??

  • They come out June 22nd.

  • I bet matrixprime would say go **** yourself too if he saw this comment of yours

  • ooh I colect them!

  • thos dont look like the guns he has in the show. in the show, he has more G1 looking guns.

    im sorry, null-ray cannons.

  • I like thes canons better than the show.

  • i dont.

  • starscream toys have never a wasit joint

  • Errrm, my Masterpiece Starscream does. Well, he has waist rotation, I'm not sure if that's what the creator of this video is talking about though.

  • hey matrixprime on my profile could you please tell me how much you payed for animated starscream

  • Thundercracker/starscream, what's the diff? The cartoon Jet, when looked at the Wiki site or the official Hasbro site is Blue. BTW, he is not painted, he is cast in BLUE PLASTIC.

  • he is painted like thundercracker not like starscream

  • colors make me think Masterpiece Starscream, definetly going to be getting this at some

  • omfg amazing.. .i want this...

  • Hi, pretty cool review. I got mine yesterday. Very cool toyline. Now I want more ;-)

  • Good review. Got mine today and I've just a few pointers. The knee pops out from the leg making him very easy to pose.  The jet to robot transformation is almost completely automatic - just pull down the legs and hold the front fuselage and the arms will extend and the head emerges by themselves.

  • i think the panel is for some kind of super flying mode or a back sword juz in case some enemies jump from behind and he can juz fly off and slash the enemy into 3 slices...

  • hey matrixprime, look at the red things at the top of his guns, push that forward and you get two little guns on eithe side of the main gun.try it!

  • his kinda cool !!!

  • pritty cool starscream but i think the legs r supose to be turned around like regullar joints in the leg but it also looks cool that way also so no harm done but just a little tip and i think the back panels r for if hes like running or flying in robot mode he can jump or cut into another bot from the back like a dive tackle lol

  • Some jets are designed to have wings pointing towards the front.

  • uh i heard they were comin out in like april or may in usa and june in canada

  • the official stated time period is June for the US, this date was also included on a recently released product catalog in the new movie toys. With the onslaught of figures on eBay though, especially those in their packaging, everyone is thinking it may be sooner than June.

  • What other transformers animated figures are you doing? Cause I saw in the series, that megatron is tricking prof. sumdacc into building him a new body. I would like to see the figure for that.

  • hey! i know you're not really into and won't be getting the allspark power toys (as you've stated), but do you know the release dates for those figures?

  • does anyone know were they are selling them ?

  • O,o I now want it badlyyyy!!

  • do all the transformers in the show

  • The way it transforms, it reminds me of Voyager Megatron. I might get this figure just because its starscream, and it looks pretty cool, even though I dont like the animated series.

  • cant wait to get it...........aaaagggghhhh! I CANT WAIT TO GET IT!

  • do ou have eney cybertron toys

  • in the cartoon starscream is more evil then ever.

  • sweeeeeeeet! I just bought an animated SS

  • i wouldn't say he's a "backwards" jet...i'd say that animated transformers takes place in the future, so he's probably suppose to represent a more futuristic looking jet

  • what an easy transformation!

  • when are this toys coming to the stores??

  • early june i believe

  • The best part of the review was from 00:00 to 11:39.

  • thunder cracker should be in this series i cant wait to get all the toys

  • Um...

    what'd Thundercracker look like?

    Starscream stole his colors.

  • I like how the nose folds inside while transforming. I just checked out all the new action figures from the new animated series and I think this is the best looking one right now.
