Destron’s Starscream

by BaseGuardian in April 8th, 2008

Greetings heroes/citizens, sorry for not updating the Base, I got bugs in me for several of days now, not very bad but after I took some antibiotics and when they started to work I don’t feel like I want to online. Anyway, today I’ll review the latest toys I got in my collections, it’s Kaiyodo Revoltech Vol. 46: Destron’s (or Decepticon’s) Starscream. I got this last week and only have the time and strength to play with it today Just like the other Kaiyodo Revoltech series figurines, this action figure is about 5 inch tall. Retail price for this is about $20-24. I’m writing this review in a condition where I’m still in my recovery phase, so I will write a short review about this ~~~I’m still high~~~

Packaging; same as usual, great packaging with dusty finishes. The toy was put on a black plastic tray and covered by a clear plastic cover.There is a leaflet about the upcoming Revoltech series, in Japanese, inside the box.

Design/sculpting; this is a non-transformable action figure although it’s from Transformers cartoon series. The selling points for Kaiyodo’s Revoltech is always the Revolver Joint, a technology developed by them (Kaiyodo) that make the action figure abilities to pose in great ways. By scraping the transforming gimmick, the figure can be design to be more cartoon (anime) accurate.

Accessories; 3 extra changeable fist, a Megatron in pistol mode and a stand.

Colorings; great colors, looks metallic and shinny. No chipping or scratching. I know there are many colorings issues with the previous Revoltech series. Kaiyodo is improving the quality, they also put some plastics strips for protection on area that usually got scratch like the joints.
