It's weird how this is the second take on a new Armada Starscream, but Hasbro still doesn't want to properly do the wingsword gimmick. And I think this solution is worse than the last one where he had swords secreted inside the wings.

Alexis never shows any romantic interest in Starscream. She certainly likes and cares a lot about him, but she never shows any actions that are overtly romantic. Hell, that handkerchief that was made for him was made by ALL the kids. You’re gonna need more evidence than “they were close friends” and “he’s Starscream” to convince me there was anything romantic there.

Inferno looks great. Armada Starscream looks profoundly half-assed. No actual wing sword, 18-step conversion at the Voyager price point is a joke, missing paint on the shins, and almost certainly subpar articulation. If they were going to keep the original toy's dirt-simple conversion they should have added butterfly shoulders to make his sword poses really sing.

There has to be some way to approximate his rocket rear end. Whenever I think of Inferno in the show, that's how I picture him, rocket butt spinning as he flies around blasting everything in sight with his unreasonably large gun.

Gotta agree with Burkion here. Some people cannot be reasoned with, and are extremely loud about it, also. Especially when it comes to loving a cartoon robot.

Alexis thought of Starscream as a friend, a big robot buddy, who wouldn't want one. More of puppy dog for her than someone she was in love with.

At 3.5" tall there's no way it's going to fit in any Soundwaves. Well, maybe the MP. The "micromaster" Rumble that fits in Legacy/Earthrise Soundwave is like 1.5" tall max. The cassette bots were always mass shifters, and I'd rather have a to-scale robot mode than Soundwave integration.

I think I'm pretty happy with Sixgun after all. Some slightly floppy ankles and a set of numbers that isn't stamped properly aren't the end of the world and lord knows I have figures with looser joints that are definitely legit. Plus, he turns into a sick jetpack and leg rotors set for Optimus in robot mode, or this beautiful monstrosity in truck mode: I could probably tweak the details, rearrange the accessories, maybe fold the sides down, and it's a shame those hands are so very visible, but I reckon the core of what's going on here is great.

It's being said that if you unclip G2 core Megatron's tank front backpack, clip it back on upside down, then turn his head, waist and elbows backwards, you can approximate the G2 tank hood chest look.

I mentioned a few weeks ago that I found a slightly dilapidated G1 Twin Twist in my local independent nerd shop. Well I went back there today, and look who else they had! And he's in shockingly good condition! He's in dire need of a clean and a new set of stickers, but his motor is still strong enough to push him along and do the jumpstart thing, and his arms are both stiff enough to hold a gun!
