The MP-03 Masterpiece Starscream measures 13” long in jet mode and 10” high in robot mode. Though modeled somewhat after his Gen 1 incarnation, this version of Starscream is notably rangier and darker, defined by mechanical intricacies and a more of a gunmetal-flat finish. Sleek jet mode includes purple Decepticon insignias, an amber-glazed cockpit bubble and detachable missiles. The rectangular base accessory provides a rack for detached missiles as well as providing a post-mounted display for either jet or robot mode. In robot mode, Starscream is as well-articulated as the Masterpiece Prime. He features the familiar inverted wings, heel-stationed thrusters, and arm-mounted Null Ray cannons. Set between the red-interior shoulder pylons, his head retains a familiar shape as well, Starscream-stamped down top the details of his sardonic red eyes and malignant sneer.
Starscream is fueled purely by avarice and ambition, a perfect one-track engine of treachery and betrayal. He serves under Megatron only in the interest of maintaining a staging ground to further his sedition. One of his primary weaknesses exists in his inability to conceal his dissension. He tries to seize power at each shallow opportunity, usually subverting his greater agenda in the process. In the Gen 1 cartoon, Starscream’s avarice was usually portrayed comically, which made him one of the most memorable and enjoyable characters on the show. He did manage to wrest control of the Decepticons for a few scrabbling minutes here and there, and in Transformers: The Movie, he even advanced under the pretense of formal ceremony, crown of leadership included, at least until Galvatron vaporized him. Now revamped into a more grandiose Masterpiece version, he seems outwardly more formidable than most other versions.
