Toys and Games Reviews of Transformers Universe Deluxe Figure G1 Starscream
Customer Review: AFTER 25 YEARS I CAN BUY MY OWN TOYS
Summary: 5 Stars
When I was a wee tot, I lived, breathed, and dreamed Transformers. The iconic battles of good and evil between giant robots... the animation and voice acting was really pretty good and mostly holds up even today. Of course, I had the toys, mostly, but never had any of the Decepticon seekers.
Now I'm an adult, and I can buy my own toys.
Starscream is an important player in the Transformers TV continuity, along with Megatron and Soundwave, so you've got to have him. He is best known for being a simpering coward, although after rewatching the series I notice that he has a very scientific bent when not begging for mercy. His toy is a nice jet; the coloring is cartoony, but of course it must be. His missiles fire a good distance, maybe three feet or so. His robot form is good looking, the head actually looks like the TV character (!!!), and only his guns come off (a big improvement over missing hands, missing wings, etc.)
The transform is somewhat difficult, as the fists swing inside the arms and can be difficult to get out, and the nosecone executes a complicated folding maneuver to transform to robot. The end result is quite impressive, as my Gen 1 toys never really looked like their TV characters, but this one does. My only complaints are that the figure is entirely plastic (in the good old days, our toys were made of steel so that we could club each other with them), and that my Starscream has loose joints already. I think these new ones are made to pop apart rather than break, but seeing his form go limp occasionally is just ... disappointing.
My opinion is that if you always wished to have the Decepticon seekers, this toy will fulfill your 25 year long dream. I have fun playing with it with my son (although he can't transform it) and it is quite poseable on my display shelf. Along with Acid Storm and Skywarp, he leads many sorties against battle damaged Autobots, hot wheels, and assorted barbies that my kids have collected.
