Seems like Hasbro as fixed #Swolescream I found a retooled one with the batch number 73101 with a retooled post (now with slots) on the back that allows for everything to peg together correctly with out major repairs

Hoped for them to be the Titans Return wave 06 Voyagers...
I guess we won't get them or as some kind of exclusive. Either in two different box sets like Twinbots or like Arcee, Grotusque, Blast Off and Repugnus.
We've been told that since the Titan Master engineering already exists they plan on going back to it after the Prime Wars Trilogy. They've probably saved the pair for that line's Voyager class as well as the smaller '88 Headmasters for Deluxe class and Titan class Scorponok. Probably also see the Autobot Targetmasters and the rest of the double Targetmasters at that time as well.

You can take a look at the comparison images below: first is the old run, next is the change.

I was talking with Carytheone about this the other day. I didn't even know this was an intended configuration.
Lesson learned? Sometimes it pays to look at the instructions!
Haven't tried it in combined mode yet, but I bet it adds some nice stability.

King Starscream or Grand Starscream has a better ring to it. I may go with that, should I get him. A big "should", should I find him cheap or get him as a gift.
And good grief, the part sharing between Deluxes is being put to full use and has officially reached Combiner Wars levels:
Sludge with Slug
Swoop with Cutthroat
Rippersnapper with Blot
And now, Snarl with Sinnertwin sharing waist, upper legs, elbow, shoulder hinge and Combiner Peg.
The only ones not paired up are the Jazz and Moonracer molds.

There is a number embossed (stamped) on the back of every box or card usually down by all the legal text and warnings. Usually a 5 digit number, and lately always starting with 7.Rodimus Knight wrote:So how would we know on the packaging if we are getting a early one or a retooled run of Starscream?

I thought either wj88 or D Max went over the combined armor feet in the pictorial review of Starscream? IIRC, he said that combining them actually decreased stability.

Adding the extra hands to the back of the feet is something I do not recommend. Firstly, with so much kibble in the front of his torso and most legs having more bulk in the front, he has more of a tendency to fall forwards, so there is no point to enforcing heels. Plus, you have to be really parallel to the feet or else you will just make any stance more unstable. So basically, adding them only raises the possibility of him being unstable while never adding to the stability.

Starscream was the only fail so far in the POTP line, ugly as hell
and the sole reason Elita One doesnt have a proper car alt mode.
It doesn't match dead on but it's pretty closegothsaurus wrote:I think the big-feet option is really smart thinking on their part. You can choose to use it or not... and it adds a LOT of stability and balance to a figure.
A missed opportunity I noticed... they could have painted the underside of the clear bits gold like the dinos. Planning to match that paint and touch those up for a grin. If anyone has a good color match, please post. Cheers!
