I ended up getting this figure simply as he was part of the wave I ordered from BBTS.
I have the original Aramada Starscream so wasn't massively excited to get this guy but figures might as well as he was part of the wave I was already ordering.
I do like that you can have his cannons pointed upwards so they are a variation of the G1 Seekers shoulder points, but can then flip forward to fire missiles like Armada. The face/head seems to be a nice cross between the two as well.
The swords don't go anywhere in Jet mode, that surprised me a bit as these days usually all weapons are contained within both modes.
One of the simplest Deluxe transformations I've come across in a looong time - even simpler than Scoop! For the first time in ages I have to say I would have preferred a more complex transformation, this was a bit easy for a deluxe class.
Nice to get the comic as always. Since the Minicons are so big in the comics, it would have been nice for this figure to come with one, rather than Legends Starscream coming with Waspinator - feels like they gave the wrong Screamer a sidekick.
Worth getting I spose, happy to have him but would not have shed too many tears if I had missed him.
