    The new MP figures all look pretty great (with a few exceptions of course), buuuuut...the prices keep going up and the QC keeps going down :(

    I have MP-01 & MP-03 and both are wonderful, they have a certain charm to them which the modern releases don't seem to have.

      Does the figure have the ab crunch and a swivel in the hips

    I kinda wish somebody would have taken the mp3 concept and ran with it. MP detail and quality, but with a fresh design. Like yeah, I know Starscream isn't those colors and doesn't have that hip kibble, but I love this design! Maybe the backlash was due to having no traditional Starscream option at the time. But in a vacuum, this figure looks great.

    I miss my MP-3. I regret selling it off when the G1 colors version of the mold came out. I should’ve kept that one and sold off the others. It was odd enough to stand on its own.

    Still love my OG MP-3, it's a shame the alternate mode in recent MPs became less and less real-word based and more toon-accurate

    The old 2017 MP-11 Starscream was $130, and that included the Coronation cape & crown. Adjusted for inflation it would be $138 in 2020. The last 3rd party version by Maketoys was $120. And this 2.0 is about 3 times the cost. Crazy.

      Mp3 is the first starscream figure and i dont really know why the latest starscream is 2.0 even though there are 3 starscream masterpiece figures

  • @UnChannelDuVulpineX
    @UnChannelDuVulpineX 4 роки тому +2

    True, it's just one massive indulgence. However, with the massive and increasing prices of these things, I believe we are correct in requiring quality figures that aren't time bombs before they fall apart.

    Your comparison to Binaltech makes this figure and some of the decisions made on it make WAY more sense to me

    The most beatiful Starscream ive ever had, and a Masterpiece figure when it arrived totally changed my perception of the character. Too bad the mold had that tiny little square you had to bend the wings around that in time became brittle and shattered, and those feet that sometimes wouldnt help it stand up.
    To me MP3 with all its flaws and drawbacks summerises how a real life G1 Starscream should look, except for the head (too small and missing those side vents that made the head boxier). Yes it had its articulation limitations, but when i had him standning like he just landed on MP Optimus trailer. I found myself lying in bed often looking at it, wondering what move Starscream would do next and what was he looking for?
    A feeling ive never managed to get again ever since, despite many MPs later being great and all, but not that much more. Other than Megatron, but thats all about his alt mode and in my case his kinda loose joint in his right arm.
    To bad MP3 Starscream has risen in price like a rocket, otherwise ive bought a new one years ago. And the green version, i could get a real life car for that!

    I think there’s a lot more to critique about MP-3 Starscream’s weird feet than his hips, ntm (from what I understand to be) his flimsy, easily broken plastic parts. Overall the robot mode is very acceptable, and that jet mode is absolutely flawless. For that matter, he almost seems to fit in better with the Alternators line than Masterpiece.

  • @nefariousgremlin7554

    might be a hot take, but I really like these colors. Really hoping we get a starscream in these colors again.

  • @NeilBlumengarten

  • @QueenStodge

    It's certainly different. I guess it's from back when toys weren't slavishly G1, and this one was very much it's own thing with a unique colour scheme

  • @asterian75

  • @lowellmartens6135
    @lowellmartens6135 4 роки тому +1

    I would still rather see them put out a character they have not yet done. We still have no MP Jazz, or Galvatron, to name just a couple large holes in the collection. Still love the original Seeker mold's alt mode. I doubt any will come close to beating it anytime soon.

  • @wonderwaffle93
    @wonderwaffle93 4 роки тому +1

    You can tell they definitely tried something different with this one. Obviously as the years went on MPs have gotten more and more show accurate as they can compared to how they kicked off. Personally he’s not my favorite but he still has his appeal and charm. The color itself would be something interesting to see crop up in other lines involving Starscream. Can’t wait till the new MP comes out, you bet your butt imma be looking at you and your content for when you get a hold of it!

    My only complaint about MP Seekers is that we did NOT Get Enough Re-Colors!!! I have a fever and the only cure is more Cowbell or more Re-Color MP Seekers. I want all of the ones on the tfwiki G1 Cartoon, yes those no name seekers. Leave none out! Where's my purple seeker that's not a clear skywarp.

    A fan mode modification solves those swords in robot mode of MP -03 and that's what I did but that lack of articulation is frustrating.

  • @CM-ko5hd
    @CM-ko5hd 4 роки тому

    The MP-03 Mold is still better than the MP-11 and MP 3.0 Starscream in alt mode. All we needed was more robot articulation but that alt mode was perfect. (we need a waist swivel and I don't see it on MP 3.0 Starscream so I'm hoping Maketoys does a re-release of all their seekers.

    the hands are wrongly positioned in jet mode at 7:37, it should show the back of the hands, not the fingers. This allow for an absolutely smooth downside of the jet mode. Why do all TF reviewers make that mistake?
