Review: Masterpiece Starscream

[dvandom]

Pretty good, but has some significant flaws.


Decided my Arkeville needed more than just a splash of paint on the face, so I painted it up like a mini.

Well, I think the kibble issues vary from figure to figure. MY tailfin has popped off once, and my fingers only pop off when I intentionally tried to do so after hearing about all the "loose finger" issues.

As for the kibble, I've found if you cut a tiny bit out of the inside of the fin pieces like so:

You can get them to attach to the lower tabs on the airbrake piece in robot mode and can remove the ball joints on the hips. It cleans up the kibble, and allows for more range of motion in the hips. Also , you can use the newly attached fin pieces to store the fuel tank bits from the shoulders, like so:

Overall, it leaves you with a more traditional looking Starscream:
