Talk:Starscream (Animated)

Not being very familiar with Gundam, I tried to find images of the fighter that User:66.114.66.77 has added. What I found was this, which doesn't have swept-forward wings at all. What am I missing? --Steve-o 15:11, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

How is he a fucking Su-47 Berkut? What does he look like? Where is his fucking vehicle mode photo?

Again, the toy isn't out yet. We've seen some at Comic Con, but that one was painted up as Thundercracker, and was a hand-painted proto to my knowledge. We can't really put much up until there's more official stuff.--Rosicrucian 00:55, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

No, it was painted as Starscream. --FortMax 01:25, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Starscream is dark blue now?--Rosicrucian 02:07, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

He certainly is in the clips we've seen... --ItsWalky 02:55, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Weird.--Rosicrucian 02:57, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Starscream is not so blue in actual screen grabs from the animation here: http://derrickjwyatt.blogspot.com/2007/07/transformers-animated-at-comic-con-2007.html --Swindle 03:12, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

If you say so! --ItsWalky 13:31, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Considering the quality of the screen grab on Swindle's link is better than on yours, I'd tend to agree with him more. --Detour 13:54, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Eyedropping that one ALSO gives you blue. Starscream is also blue in Eric_Siebenaler's Animated art for the next issue of the Collector's Club magazine, as seen in a recent upload here. --ItsWalky 15:02, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Re: Starscream being blue now: Why not? He's already been black, dark grey, copper green, tan, and black and purple.

If you look at it, you can see that all the decepticons has that basic purple color on them, so they look more like a whole military-unit raither then a bunch of rapair-bots. -Hepathos 16:11, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

His toy next year once it comes out or something will be mighty expensive. Hey I saw his jet mode and it looks like a Cybertronian Jet based off a Su-47 Berkut.(Anti-Spammer 20:15, 31 October 2007 (UTC))

His toy is a Voyager-class figure. As such, you're looking at around the $20 range, just like all the other Voyagers. It'll still be less expensive than the Ultra/Leader/Supreme toys, if any.--Rosicrucian 20:19, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

Geez, that picture of him makes him look twice as conniving and backstabbing than he ever was in G1.

I have an image of his toy

Here it is. I need help with the caption, though. Any ideas? Mr. Florky 14:53, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

The not-so-Crimson Chin?

Lotta watermarks on that. Got one without? JW 14:54, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

And a watermark is.....? Mr. Florky 15:09, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Those words superimposed on the image. In any case, we cannot use this image on the wiki, as the toy pictured there was stolen. --FFN 15:20, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Stolen?!? I had no idea. So sorry. Can you fill me in on the details? Mr. Florky 15:23, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

That is a test shot of a toy made by the factories to test the toy for painting and safety, or are just pre-production versions. They were likely swiped as they are usually destroyed afterwards. Hasbro and TakaraTomy do not like these being leaked and distributed around because poor posing/incorrect transformation in these sorts of photos or incomplete colours/paint may impact negatively on the perception of the final retail toy. --FFN 15:30, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Okay. Got it. Again, really sorry. Mr. Florky 15:37, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Quote?

How come the dramatic "Do not try to deceive a Decepticon" quote isn't used. That sounds really cool. Inferno'sQueen 15:07, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

I personally think the "solemn face" quote better captures Starscream's personality.

Also, the very first thing you did upon getting an account here was to change that quote. We prefer that new users make more substantive contributions before tweaking the frippery. JW 15:19, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Hmm... I guess the "solemn face" is more Starscream-ish. However, I have also uploaded a screencap for Roll Out (online game) and fixed a grammar mistake on this talk page. Inferno'sQueen 15:23, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

We appreciate your efforts, and we look forward to your future contributions.

However, on Talk pages, I'd strongly recommend against editing other people's comments. Fixing grammar mistakes in articles is wonderful, but you shouldn't edit other people's Talk page comments, unless there is some serious, page-breaking problem in them. In this particular case, your edit was harmless, but I wouldn't do it again. JW 15:35, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

And then Starscream was undead.

Thanks for the tip. ; ) Inferno'sQueen 15:40, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

A reminder to editors: Spoilers Warnings Please!

Earlier, somebody put up spoilers for Mission Accomplished without any sort of header or warning. I've added the warning now. Just a reminder to editors to put warnings on new episodes. I'm pretty sure that the newest US episode is the rule, right? --Netbug009 05:25, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

That is correct. Spoiler tags for the newest US episode, and no spoilers in the intro paragraph whatsoever.--Rosicrucian^Talk 05:37, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

My bad!

Toy

Does anyone know if a starscream toy will be released in show accurate colors?
