First pictures of Takara's MP USA Starscream

Taken by [Soundwave] over at TFans. He hasn't removed it from the packaging yet, but in the box, it looks exactly the same as Hasbro's, they haven't even translated the text. The only real difference is the Japanese sticker in place of the Wal-Mart one.

Clicky clicky!

Very nice. Wanna pick one up myself. It's too bad that will never be available locally in Australia.

Its exactly the same as the Hasbro version we saw a 2-3 months ago being sold as a Toys R Us exclusive. However I am not surprised that you were not aware of them as they didn't even last a week on the shelves despite reasonable stock numbers.

See Hasbro, cool stuff sells better than random repaint junk

The Japanese release has the faction logo on the nosecone and longer tips on the tailfins. Otherwise they are almost identical.

Are you sure? To me it looks exactly the same aside from the Decepticon symbol.

When I get home I will have a good look comparing mine with this pic:

I've heard that it has the original tail-fins. If you feel Starscream's then Skywarp's or Greenscream's, you can definately feel a difference in pointy-ness.

"Random Repaint" Hasbro MP Starscream was certainly not a random splash of colors

Edit: looks like Gok and I posted at almost the same time

There was a dozen Screamers at Morley TRU in Perth but they only lasted about a day on the shelf, I was lucky and managed to nab one of the few remaining and that was less than 24 hours after someone had posted here on the board of sighting them. Scalpers I say.
