STARSTRIKERRRRRRR.

Well, here they are... some first images of a one-seater SDCC Starscream that are NOT mocked-up 2-seater stock photos.

Have fun identifying all the little easter eggs.

I DID NOT APPLY THESE STICKERS. THESE STICKERS WERE APPLIED FACTORY-SIDE.

Yes, Starscream is "longer" than the normal Sky Striker... or rather... Starscream has a "longer" nose. (He's a compulsive liar).
But NOT literally longer. It's just paint.

And NO I cannot get you one. But if you can't make it to SDCC this year and CAN make it to Coil Con (coilcon.com)... Starscream will
be making an appearance so you can hug him and get all his decals stuck between your teeth.

As usual JoeDeclassified has cut off a portion of my photos so check out GeneralsJoes.com for more complete pics.

Interesting that, I guess except for the nose part, it's just a simple matter of blue fins, yellow canopy and different stickers to turn the Sky Striker into Starscream.

I wonder how loud the screams will be if Skyscream becomes one of the hottest SDCC exclusives ever then Hasbro releases a blue COBRA Sky Striker to retail later with optional stickers you can make into Thundercracker and a black Night Boomer with an extra set of purple fins, missiles and stickers to make it into Skywarp.

I know they said they wouldn't do that, that the Skyscream was a one time thing, but that could just be to fan the flames of interest and obsession in it.

Thanks for the pics! I am so hoping my pre-orders actually get filled for this. These will look great on the Flagg I'm picking up in two weeks

OK, this is the third time I came to look at the pics. I got three preordered through ebay so hopefully atleast one will be sent. I like the stickers and love the rub design. Thanks for the pics!

On another note I think the box artwork is beyond incredible and I am glad they put some time into it all.

It does look incredible. I do believe I will never own one but I can wish. Really at this point, I want the Zaranas first then I will look into this. Thanks for posting goggles!!! Definitely a sexy piece!!

So, does the rub sign actually work or is it just a black & silver sticker?

HORRIBLE.

I think I want one of these now.

I didn't before.

Ugh.

Are you saying the nosecone is physically longer or is it just that they painted more of the nosecone? Looks like just paint to me that makes it "longer".

NO it is NOT physically longer. I meant to put parenthesis around both LONGERs in my initial post but just did the second one cuz I'm an idiot.
I was suggesting it LOOKED longer because of the "illusion" presented by the paint on Starscream. I meant to comment on how they could have just
skipped painting the nose and just put a purple rubber point at the end to be cheap and did not. But of course I forgot to do that as well.
Sorry.
