Description This version features the traditional amber canopy.

Though G1 Starscream did not have an amber canopy, Thundercracker and Skywarp did. There was a version that kind of counts; amber was featured on the unauthorized 'knock-off' of the Takara Diaclone Jetrobo, made by Kingdam. Although it's a fake, it's kind of becoming a collector's piece in and of itself, due to being 30 years old and part of the pre-Transformers vintage landscape!

This was the deco I wanted to paint initially, in order to learn about rendering transparent glass. The true G1 version is here .

Excellent work!  The amber definitely helps the flow with Starscream's color scheme, I can see a reason they chose to use it,

Thank you! Yes, it's a great combo. Thinking about it, there are quite a few famous giant robots that use this scheme.
