Battle Blade Starscream in package Photo.

Battle Blade Starscream huh? Pretty good indeed, thanks again s250 for another great scoop. Been newsified.

I thought that this robot couldn't get any worse, and then I saw the box art.

Someone needs to explain the concept of depth perception to the artist.

Wow that looks real cheap. Alot like FAB SS but with new arms...

His packaging is almsot kiddy like. I cant really put my finger for it, but it almsot seems like one of those preschool type packaging.

On the packaging it has "Level of difficulty". Is that new or do other Transformer packages have that?

I'm sure the target audiance for these are younger children, hence the look of the pakaging. But, I really like these. Probably end up getting all of them first before I get regular movie toys.

Why does it SCREAM Cybertron Thundercracker, that goober, to me?

Nope that is nothing new. And it is usually based off class, Basic a 1 and leader and supreme are high.

Yea I am going to get Battle Blade Starscream.

Starscream, don't pick at your faction symbol. Especially when you're still in the card.

"Why does it SCREAM Cybertron Thundercracker to me?"

Couldn't be the jet-nose-for-a-chest, missile-for-a-hand look, could it?

Hasbro have taken to warpping turds in plastic i see.

Utter Crap. The point of a Transformer is toy get to transform it. Why bother if its all done for you?
In the end it is just an ugly model.

Thats a very falic little picture

Not a bit of that looks good to me.

He's cute. My big worry about this one was whether or not his arms could actually come forward. I might get the FABs if I sort of like the movie but not enough to buy something big and expensive.
As for everyone who problem is that it's too kiddy, that's something that you're just going to run up against now and again when your hobby is collecting children's toys. Come on, you know they can't all be MPs.

Looks like the Gobots packaging from about 2 years ago

It's a little robot chic that just hatched...actually kinda cute

Sounds like a failed line of facial razors.

Nice pick though, thanks for posting.

Arrgghh....it's...so...bad!

The figure looks good but the box sucks. Why couldnt they just stick to the same box colors as the other movie figures.

It is Fast Action Battler Starscream.

That's kinda cool that the FAB toys are aimed at like toddlers and younger kids.

You know, it looked more like the Pledge of Allegiance to me, but since Starscream wouldn't pledgeallegiance to anything but himself, I like yours better.

i like the little box, but its still pretty s*itty

Again, really bad. Wow, TF's are really goin' downhill.

I thought so. Somehow I got into my head that FAB SS had gun arms...
Back to school has sent me crazy...

Yes, that's exactly what I would want to give my TODDLER, a "Battle Blade" Starscream. Who came up with this marketing scheme?
