Nah. Those colors are fine. Fruity though. I'll be getting him. And Cliffjumper too.

I guess that Dirge is okay. It's nice that Hasbro is at least trying to give us multiple Seekers.
Unfortunately, after seeing the absolutely amazing work that Spurt Reynolds has done on his custom Animated Seekers, anything Hasbro does will fall far, FAR short. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-screamer.gif) -------------------- Avatar image by Jake. Thanks, man!

QUOTE It's nice that Hasbro is at least trying to give us multiple Seekers. Yeah, its too much to expect them to give us six uses of the Voyager Starscream mold. Maybe eventually we'll see about four of the six done but there's no way they will give us everyone. Activators though, I can actually see us getting all of them eventually. And which one is this one in the show? I forget... -------------------- |

I like this color scheme for the "European G1" flavor, but I guess I'm a little confused on why there are like eight seekers in the show but this isn't one of them. People already aren't going to get a complete set of those guys, let alone if they add in toy-only characters when there are only going to be so many uses of the molds.
I'm not even collecting Activators though unless they do an Omega Supreme toy, just sayin'. -------------------- "The very purpose of religion is to control yourself, not to criticize others.

It's not in the show. And the colors are awful. And that's the problem.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-screamer.gif) Ultimately, that will always be the case, because customizers do not have to worry about such things as mold sprues and the expense of retooling. -------------------- |

So, I guess the Female Starscream Clone definitely won't be named Dirge, then?

^ But, her colors are based on G2 Ramjet anyway... What does it really have to do with Dirge?

Considering she was never in any way, shape or form inspired by Dirge, I'm not surprised. Considering she was inspired by Overlord, I wouldn't be surprised if her name included "Mega" in it since that was the female part of Overlord. -------------------- |

Make her have romantic feelings towards Megatron in season three; a "Megatron complex". -------------------- |

Not a great look for Dirge, but it's certainly G1-inspired.
Now, I just want to know which of TFW2005's web monkeys thinks Javascript has anything to do with Sun's Java. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-depth.gif) This post has been edited by Canthros: Sep 15 2008, 03:27 PM -------------------- Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over.

I say "No thanks" to Dirge - the colors are too wacky, and I'd rather see them as coneheads than re-invented as more Screamer clones. Another "no thanks" to Cliffjumper - he'd be neato if it wan't a toy with such lousy hands.

I'm not sure where you guys are getting Overlord, considering she has G2 Ramjet's colors in a very similar layout, and they're both seekers. You know, like all the other Starscream clones? The same colors being present seem like much more of a coincidence, and she's missing Overlord's prominent blue and off-white.

Hmmm, more activators. Oh well. I hope there is still a Ramjet. Cliff's head is horrible.
