the reason is the supream one is so big is he became huge compaired to the other transformers in the series and had a crown like the one from the orginal transformers movie
I see that walking dead book is a pretty thick paperback, does it hold together pretty well? I was thinking of getting it but I heard the binding on books that thick tend to tear apart.
@thecollector75 hey graham, see your playing BF3, i'm on there most nights, if ya want a game? just bought nemesis prime universe, and ordered the shadow commander fansproject armour.
I've looked for this guy for so long... still no luck... I know you said you didn't want to know more about the show, but I'd just like to point out two things about this Starscream: 1: He was a total badass. 2: he got a supreme class toy because midway through the show he absorbed some of the power from the macguffin and became a skyscraper size demigod (and later, planet size).
You are spot on when you say they should have repainted him into Thundercracker and Skywarp. I actually bought a couple of these and had my buddy custom paint one into Skywarp for me, as he's my favorite of the seekers.
I see great minds DO think alike. I definitely consider that as the best representation of Starscream to stand, perfectly, beside my Classics Megatron and Energon ShockBlast/Shockwave when I get it.
Nice review! I've always wanted this figure. I have the "supreme Starscream" or whatever the giant one is called (in fact it's my borther's old figure but he no longer collects TFs :D) but I've never really enjoyed it. Features aren't that great, hand-articulation is quite bad, considering how freaking big that figure is and so... It's cool display-figure on it's own rights but this voyager version just looks more fun and right to me.
They released the giant version because in the show, Screamer absorbs the power of Primus, grows to planet size and starts wearing that crown. I picked this guy up at AA. Love him. A pretty sweet toy. This screamer also took on and won every single Autobot. Single handed. Without any power ups. That was a hardcore fight.
The walking Dead comics interest me but I'm kinda put off by the fact it's in black and white.
Cybertron toys are some of the nicest out there across all continuities. Because of my love of big bots I do think the larger toy is fantastic but I will admit this version looks really nice. One I think I'll seek out at some point in the near future
@destructionsnakepit dont let that put you off from the walking dead comics. you dont notice the black and white after a bit and it really suits it to be honest and the shocks of the story line are fantastic
Armada Starscream, as a character, was my favorite in the entire show. The rest of the characters I could just as well throw out as keep around. Armada was better than the ones that came after it (which I could not watch as all!) but then again, I have a high tolerance for pain. Take that for what you will, I suppose.
Graham...yep those TF cartoon lines were awful....too much conversation not enough action!!...additionaly what kind of responsible..robot brings a bunch of kids into a robot war zone!!Lol
This Starscream is one of my all-time favourite toys. I absolutely love it. Even though I sold off a bunch of my Galaxy Force toys, this one was never in danger of going anywhere!
@thecollector75 Well, I heard of it when someone (on a forum) wrote the first issue had the single most shocking thing he'd seen in a comic. I thought "yeah right" but he wasn't wrong. it's not one to read on the train
if your looking for a DC universe Classics Joker, Recently (with in the last year or two) there was a Joker/Harley Quinn Mad Love two pack that would probably be easier and cheaper to get than the actual DCUC Joker that came out in the first few waves and is expensive if i recall correctly.

just to say he was made to the 13 inch model to go in comparison with primus. remember he battled him when he became SUPERSIZED!!

@WhiteLongSword7 yeah he became supersized like unicron and primus, and gave himself a crown, which was sort of a homage to G1.
