Re: Transformers Movie toys So far the only Leader Class I own is Brawl from the first Movie though Starscream might become the 2nd.
I have to wonder whether the proto pics are too good to be true though and if something like the transforming arm weapon will get dropped for the final release so that Hasbro can save a few bucks.
Then there's the usual concern over what the thing will look like in a non Photoshopped, in hand image as Hasbro's painters aren't exactly reknowned for quality.

Re: Transformers Movie toys I do agree that the leader class starscream is a must get!!!!
But even with the bigger size, they still couldn't do anything about the kibble showing underneath or even from the back of the vehicle? I could understand with jetfire but I mean they did a good job with the voyager starscream, why wouldn't they try to do better with the leader? aw well, at least now we can re-enact the forest battle scene (minus grindor)

My guess is that amount of space required for the electronics played a part and no matter what the scale there is never going to be a 100% perfect fully transforming Movie toy as the CGI models "cheat" by making parts mysteriously vanish during transformation which a physical object obviously can't do.
As I expected the in hand shots of Starscream reveal it to be yet another EPIC FAIL from Hasbro in the detailing department and I think I'm done buying Movie toys ( except for the HA's ) because they look so half assed and bland on display that the line should be renamed "Greyformers".
