2005 boards member juise has posted official images and profile information for Transformers Beast Hunters Wave 2 Deluxe Figures. While we have seen some of the figures before, this is our 1st clear look at Beast Hunters Starscream! Images of the figure out of package are attached. Here is his profile info:
The scheming Decepticon second-in-command Starscream looks forward to the day both the Autobots and Megatron are out of his way!Autobots beware, because this Starscream figure is just the Decepticon to take any of them on! He’s a super-sneaky operator who wants all the power for himself, and his clenching Thunder Talon gives him the edge he needs in battle! When he needs to do recon or make a speedy escape, convert him to fighter jet mode. Keep converting him back and forth so his Autobot enemies can’t keep up!
[PRODUCT FEATURES]
• Powerful Starscream robot-to-vehicle warrior figure!
• Converts from robot to fighter jet mode and back!
• Clenching Thunder Talon!
Read on to see new images of Starscream, and the rest of the wave 2 deluxe descriptions!

Starscream is an eyesore. Those colors… that one piece bikini look….

Actually, there is a Deluxe Prime Prime. Er, Prime Optimus. It was an exclusive at the 2011 SDCC, followed by a two-pack release with the Deluxe Megatron and the three kids as part of the First Edition wave.

I don't think I will get many of the Beast Hunters figures. I may get a Smokescreen just to have him represented. Other than that I may possibly get the Predaking figure when the larger one is released.

More of a return for Starscream, since this isn't his first Deluxe. Also, it's a common, and good, theory that they are saving the Voyager class slots for new characters and designs that are relevant to things that'll be going on in the show.
Deluxes? Yes. Small? No. Starscream looks to be about the same size as his FE figure, and Bulkhead, while short, is really bulky.
He's already confirmed to be getting a Voyager class figure…
Prime has, for quite some time now, been released in multiple size-classes. As of now, the only size-classes his Prime designs haven't touched are Legion and Deluxe.
They tout the Deluxe class as their big seller. Makes sense that the scale that supposedly sells the best gets the most molds.

i really like predaking but i have a soft spot for beast formers of any kind.

just curious as to why the size downgrade for both screamer and bulky.
they were both voyagers and now there deluxes and small ones at that.
i fear that shockwave will have the similar fate.
while prime gets upgraded to leader size.
i just don't understand hasbros logic on these choices.

Is this a custom repaint of the cyberverse?

This is one of the most hideous toys this line has come out with to date. If anything, the Prime toys just keep getting WORSE. I wouldn't waste a single cent on this piece of junk.

RustyBarnacles
So, looks like Smokescreen, Predaking, and Maybe Optimus prime. The others are just not doing it for me.

Inspired by Swoop…?

Bulkhead looks like he got a fish face.

My thoughts exactly. I look at First Editions and most of the early figures and think "These look fantastic. Impressive design and they look more or less show accurate." They look "professional" and more adult. The newer ones look like they are marketed more towards kindergarteners or younger while the early ones looked more towards 3rd-5th graders. It is a step back.
Steroid Prime
Wow they are cheaper and cheaper as the series continues
Starscream is a hot mess. This looks like a cyberverse figure compared to First Edition starscream
Skottech
of those listed I think Bullkhead & Ripclaw are the ones I'm looking forward to
