Golden Lagoon Starscream is shipping. I received my shipping notice. Golden Optimus was waiting for him to ship before shipping.

Hoping my TFSource preorder pulls through, since I missed the boat on BBTS's preorder due to having never gotten word of it until after it was sold out.

I think the concept of being educated and being able to educate is something that more people need more of in their lives.
No, we don't all know everything but we should spread and share that what we do know.
If I'm consistently misspelling a word, I would want and expect people to correct me as should I imagine all decent people who know the value of good literacy.
Its just arrogant laziness to know you're spelling a word incorrectly and not correct yourself or ignore the advice when people do tell you how to spell a word correctly.

Same. He's the last one I need for my Starscream, Starscream, Starscream, Starscream, and StarscreamTerrorsaur combiner.

Mine has listed as paid for and will ship shortly from TFSource, so I think you'll be fine. Soon, with his reprolabels and new shiner limbs, Tighty Whitey will be no more! Starscream's new combiner name will be GOLDWINGER!
Then Starscream will be seen planning to get that non-combining tetrajet body as soon as he can...
I do wonder if anyone will buy three of these and claim they have Skywarp and Thundercracker too like tfwiki advocates.

My TFSource preorder for GL Starscream has processed. Gonna wait to ship it later after I save up a bit so as to take advantage of the free shipping on orders over $150. Got my eyes on a few other things that I can group together in my Stack with Screamer.

Can you also show us what GL Starscream looks like as a leg for that combiner?

I can, tomorrow. Ironically there are no instructions on how to transform him into leg mode. Just var and arm mode. They tell you to combine him with Abominus.
Incidentally both he and Optimus come with tech spec bio cards. Their stats are all 10's even if it's really their Endurance is infinite.

Our needs include freedom from abuse, violence, and mistreatment, the right to autonomy and self-direction, the right to represent ourselves, equal opportunity for education and employment, the right to accommodation, and societal inclusion and acceptance.
The need for accommodation isn’t a “special need”. It’s a basic human right. It’s a leveling of the playing field that allows us the same opportunities and chances as non-disabled people."

Starscream just came in the mail. I played around with him a bit, putting him in jet mode for a few minutes before attaching him as Ulchtar "King Starscream's" arm.
HO BOY
If the other "Lucky Draw"-type, hyper chromed figures are like him, me and my wallet are glad that this will be the only one we get. I was so scared of breaking something every time I moved a joint, and I think I've already chipped off some of the shiny gold paint where the legs connect together (why oh WHY did you paint over this Takara)
he looks great though.

One would think the three different types of gold finish wouldn't look good, but they look really nice together.

I'll be honest, at the expense of some of the chrome I sanded a bit of the leg-tabs to avoid future issues. I can fix it easier now than later. But I knew this wasn't going to be the most durable figure, it is one of the few cases where I decided to get something just to enjoy the sheer weirdness value. I'll probably get one of those gold chrome pens as a backup for future repairs. Back in the Transmetal days I used chrome nail polish for repairs, though that was hit or miss.

Just an observation, if you take him outside, there are actually multiple GRADIENTS of gold on it (in the chrome I mean, not counting what I added in weapons OR the non-chrome plastic). It looks amazing, and...seems completely impossible to photograph. Nuts. Either way, definitely a nice thing as for my and several other people's purposes, Sunstorm was sometimes portrayed as something really unusual and this toy has that in spades. I could see him being something of an outlier, willing to temporarily join a combiner team but never for any reason that makes any sense to anyone.
