So what's the scale of Starscream? I hope he's in 1/48 so that the 1/48 Yamato Valks would indeed have a Playmate hehehe!
One mold - 3 characters...wow...the toy company will be making lot of money on this Starscream mold. Ouch.

Just curious, are they planning to release this in the US? Hasbro didn't even release Magnus over there. Gold |

Makes sense, considering Magnus didn't seem to be that good a concept to begin with. Probably didn't think people would be too into it [most of those in the mainstream market wouldn't recognize the inner robot Magnus idea]. Besides, it was an out-and-out simple recolor... which are usually only good for recouping design costs. And with the potential of making a lot of money back beign potentially and logically lower than the potential of taking a loss instead, There's been no word from Hasbro even recognizing the existence of MP Screamer. But I wouldn't be surprised if they presented this as either a next 'Masterpiece' style standalone release or a Movie-merchandise-supporting figure along with a 20thOP rerelease. This is, after all, a new mold that they need to make money off of and would be able to sell more of than a 20thOP redeco.
