Several years ago, I bought the new version of Starscream at Target for nostalgia sake. I was amazed how much better it was than the original. It looked much more like the cartoon/comic Starscream, and transformed waaaaaay better.

I'm assuming you're talking about the Classics deluxe figure?  It's pretty alright but I feel that mold has worn out its welcome.

That being said, it is still much better than the original.  A lot of those G1 toys were pretty piss-poor, but I can't seem to stop myself from buying them...

I like that Seeker mold, but I believe it's being officially put to rest after the TFSS exclusive figures of Nacelle, & G2 Starscream.





Personally, of the bunch, I'm looking forward to Serpent O.R.

I still have my original G1 Transformers, I may have to get them out and take some photos.

You're sure it was exactly that one?  That's a Henkei version, Japanese only.  I think there was a re-release of G1 Starscream with colors closer to the cartoon then the 1 I got, but, I don't think it was quite as close as the Henkei version.

Tarantulas is from Beast Wars, which takes place 300 years after G1, so this would be his Cybertronian mode.  Yeah, I love Serpent OR, it's a nice GI Joe homage!
