Starscream (Cyberverse)

Starscream is a Decepticon Seeker and later a Quintesson from the Cyberverse continuity family.

Good afternoon, ma'am! Have you heard the good news about our lord and savior, me?

Leader of the Seekers and Megatron's second-in-command,^[1] Starscream is the kind of guy who'd sell you out to Megatron in a heartbeat, then sell Megatron out to whoever offers him more power. He's not a very loyal sort, and often comes at odds with the heroic and loyal Bumblebee—both traits Starscream despises.

Lack of loyalty isn't his only flaw: Starscream himself has earned Megatron's scorn for his cowardice and incompetence over the eons, and neither Shockwave nor Soundwave have much respect for him. Just about the only things he has going for him are his skills as a flier, and the leadership of the Seekers. Strangely enough, despite Starscream's own lack of loyalty, he somehow has the complete loyalty of his Seekers.

So complete that one wonders if they had to choose, would they follow Starscream or Megatron?

Excitement? Amusement? Fear? Dull surprise?

Before the Great War, Starscream took the newly arrived Camien Windblade to a Cube game where he flaunted his upper-class credentials by mocking the plebs and having Bumblebee be kicked out of the stadium. Attempting to spice up the game, Starscream made his way to the Cubes and reprogrammed the AI in one of them to cause chaos only for Bumblebee and Windblade to foil his plot. Cube

Starscream later attended the rally where Megatron unveiled the Decepticon faction and emblem. Soon enough however, the movement had gone from civil disagreements to open revolution with Starscream derisively greeting Optimus when the "file clerk" tried to deter Megatron's ambitions. Later in the war, Megatron conspired to use Vector Sigma to reprogram the AllSpark and have it birth a new generation of loyal Decepticons. When the Autobots got wind up of this plot, Megatron Is My Hero they stole the AllSpark and launched it through a space bridge despite the Seekers' best efforts to retrieve the artifact. Allspark

Seekers, the scavenger hunt will proceed-

As Cybertron's condition deteriorated due to the loss of the AllSpark, Starscream led Thundercracker, and Nova Storm to the Grand Imperium where the trio attempted to slay Optimus Prime only to be bested and forced to retreat. Matrix of Leadership

Starscream watched the beatboxing match between Soundwave and Soundblaster, seemingly unhappy with Soundwave’s victory. The Immobilizers

Some 66 million years later, the AllSpark had been tracked to the distant world of Earth. Fractured Starscream sent Slipstream to scout the planet and locate the artifact while he rallied the Decepticon fleet. Siloed Awaken Sleeping Giants

Once the scouting team had made planetfall, Starscream contacted their shuttle for a status report only for the Autobot Bumblebee to answer his call instead. Memory Much to his ire, this would not prove an isolated occurrence and he swore to demote Slipstream as far he could when he came to Earth. Siloed

With his fleet, Starscream entered the Sol system only to find Shockwave had beaten him there. Awaken Sleeping Giants After the Ark crew had been awoken, Starscream's fleet arrived to back up the Decepticons and invade the planet. Eruption

Months of Earth-bound battles eventually resulted in the humans becoming aware of the Transformers. When Megatron opted to simply destroy the Earth, he had Shockwave construct a Planet Smasher on the moon, its complex coming under attack from the Autobots. Starscream led his Seekers into battle, engaging Windblade in a dogfight before he was chomped on by Grimlock. As the Seekers fled to the safety of the Planet Smasher, Megatron radioed Starscream for air support, an order that the Seeker chose to ignore and instead ordered the force field raised, intending to leave Megatron at the mercy of the Autobots. Unfortunately, Megatron had managed to extradite himself from the danger and had made it to the forcefield. Furious, the warlord threw Starscream around before demoting him, making Slipstream the new leader of the Seekers. Sea of Tranquility

Vote for me and I promise you'll all get new toys! Yes, even you, Red Wing!

As Starscream seethed over this, the Autobots destroyed the Planet Smasher, prompting the Decepticons to retreat underground and enact their backup plan of using planetary engines to smash the moon into the Earth. When Megatron's injured leg caused him to stumble, a maddened Starscream leapt on the opportunity, kicking his master to the floor and bombarding him with a missile swarm before beating him senseless. Considering Megatron deceased, Starscream declared himself the new Decepticon leader only for his confidence to flounder when the Autobots neared the control room. After Shockwave had primed the control room to self-destruct, Starscream ordered his troops back to the Nemesis with Megatron left behind. Back on the flagship, an exceptionally smug Starscream kicked Soundwave off the command throne, before ordering the Nemesis to take off. As the warship rose, Autobot sabotage caused the planetary engines to begin reversing. Before Starscream could issue a command, a furious Megatron entered the bridge and began silently and relentlessly pummelling Starscream across the ship, even as the Seeker begged for mercy. As Megatron prepared to execute Starscream, he ran for the bay doors only for the full force of Megatron's fusion cannon to strike him in the back, seemingly deactivating him. Contemptuously, Megatron threw Starscream's body onto the moon's surface as the Nemesis left. Bad Moon Rising

Despite Megatron's assault, Starscream barely clung to life. Fatally wounded, he awoke on the moon's surface under the gaze of Cheetor. Witnessing the bestial Cybertronian run through a GroundBridge, Starscream followed, the portal's AllSpark energies healing his wounds. Dark Birth Reaching out to his Seekers, Starscream rallied them to him and had them procure Vector Sigma. As a propaganda move, Megatron made a video directed at the people of Earth that claimed that Starscream tragically lost his life at the hands of the Autobots. As soon as the broadcast was over, however, he immediately warned the other Decepticons to take Starscream's fate as a reminder of the price of failure. He then issued a challenge to them: anyone who succeeded in bringing him the head of Optimus Prime would take Starscream's place as his second-in-command. Bring Me The Spark Of Optimus Prime

When Optimus and Megatron were fighting over the AllSpark in new spark armor, Starscream took the opportunity to steal the AllSpark and escape through another GroundBridge. Trials Starscream's brush with death had left him insane, believing he had come back from the AllSpark with the purpose of creating a new era of peace by returning all other Transformers to it. To facilitate this, he used the AllSpark to give himself his own spark armor while tasking Acid Storm with programming Vector Sigma to command the AllSpark and have it create an army of Scraplets. Dark Birth

Starscream shows off his homemade Sunstorm cosplay.

Believing these new beings housed the sparks of ancient Transformers reclaimed from the AllSpark, Starscream plotted to use his new "children" to further his plans. Though he attempted to convince Slipstream to join him, she fled to warn the Autobots and Decepticons of his intentions, managing to reveal his location to Windblade before being killed by Bludgeon. Parley Anticipating the Autobots' arrival, Starscream abandoned his temporary base and led his Scraplets in an attack on the Nemesis, draining the energon from the Decepticons. Megatron managed to send out an SOS, prompting Optimus and a team of Autobots to investigate. Optimus and Windblade eventually found Starscream waiting for them on the bridge, where he ordered his Scraplets to attack and drained their energon, preparing to take the Matrix of Leadership from Optimus. His attempt was interrupted by Cheetor's arrival, who fought Starscream and extracted the AllSpark from his armor, using it to restore everyone and disable the Scraplets. His armor now destroyed, Starscream swore vengeance before making a hasty retreat with the AllSpark in tow. Starscream's Children

Starscream’s next scheme would involve him kidnapping Cheetor and Bumblebee, which he did by sending his seekers to pursue them. While it seemed as though Cheetor and Bumblebee escaped through the Groundbridge Nexus, they were unexpectedly attacked and paralyzed by Acid Storm, who took them back to Starscream’s new lair. After they had awoken only to be surrounded by more Scraplets, Starscream explained how he shared much in common with Cheetor, with the knowledge that the AllSpark gave the young guardian it’s power, he planned to forcibly merge Cheetor’s Spark with his own, but first opted to give his captive a demonstration as he had Bumblebee strapped to a table that was part of the device, and attempted to merge the scout’s Spark with one of his Scraplets, but his plan was ultimately foiled after Cheetor used some Energon as a distraction for the other Scraplets, and broke Bumblebee free of his bonds, ceasing the merging process, and the two escaped, leaving Starscream to continue scheming. Spotted

The Decepticon would then hasten his plans further with the timely arrival of both Jetfire and Sky-Byte, and approached both of the warriors with the promise of defeating one another. Giving them Spark Armor, he assured each of them individually that the other didn’t have anything like their Spark Armor, and revealed to Acid Storm that he planned to have them destroy each other, and possibly both the Autobots and Decepticons. Infinite Vendetta

"IT'S MORE POWERFUL THAN I EVER IMAGINED!"

Acid Storm eventually finished the reprogramming of Vector Sigma, allowing Starscream to absorb it and increase his power. As a reward for his Seekers' loyalty, he extracted all of their sparks. When he returned to the GroundBridge Nexus, he found all the Autobots and Decepticons already there and, after some verbal jousting with Megatron, prepared to extract their sparks only for Optimus to channel the power of the Matrix, its energy blasting the AllSpark out of Starscream and knocking him into stasis. Knowing that Optimus would want the Seeker to face a trial, Bumblebee dragged the unconscious Starscream back to the Ark. I Am The Allspark

Guarded by Prowl and Rack'n'Ruin, Starscream attempted to unleash his AllSpark power upon reawakening, only to realize he no longer had it after Rack'n'Ruin mocked him for it. He didn't like this one bit. Escape From Earth Later, he attempted to have the Autobots destroy each other by sabotaging one of the Wheeljack's new AllSpark emitters. However, his plan was foiled when Optimus Prime destroyed the device connecting the emitters. Party Down

Managing to dupe Teletraan-X into giving him enough space to escape, Starscream made it out of the Ark but soon became a tag-along to the Titan Croaton, screaming as he left for parts unknown. Ghost Town

After Croaton had flown through a storm and dangerously close to a sun, he happened upon a Quintesson Cruiser, both Cybertronians being taken prisoner. Brought by the Sharkticons before a Judge, Starscream's ego quickly won him the death sentence before he, in a panic, sold out his species and the AllSpark by pointing the aliens towards Cybertron. Pleased with his gift, the Judge sent Starscream to the Scientist so he could be rewarded by becoming part of the new Judge alongside a Gray and a Velgrox. The End Of The Universe I

To fuel Starscream's metamorphosis, the Quintessons began draining the energon of both the Cybertronian race and the AllSpark once they conquered the metallic planet. The Scientist Working together, the Autobots and Decepticons managed to destroy the Quintesson ship whereupon Starscream made his dramatic return, declaring his race to be guilty. The Judge Using his newfound powers on his foes, Judge Starscream prolonged the Transformers' trial, wanting both Optimus Prime and Megatron present so they could stand trial for all their wrongdoings towards him. He also repainted the Prosecutors and Sharkticons in his colors. The End Of The Universe I

He's ahead of the curve.

Holding the assembled members of his species prisoner, Judge Starscream ranted to them about the injustices that they had inflicted on him over the course of his life before he demanded Prime and Megatron's locations. As one, the Cybertronians gave him contradictory information prompting him to take Arcee as a hostage, threatening to kill her. Before he could make good on this, Windblade awoke the War Titan Iaconus. The End Of The Universe II

Though Judge Starscream panicked, the Scientist calmly called in the brainwashed Croaton to deal with Iaconus, even if the War Titan proved able to punt Starscream across the horizon. When he returned to the battlefield, Croaton was on the verge of defeat, forcing Starscream to kill Iaconus by dumping some unspace matter on his head. The End Of The Universe III

Ordering Croaton to annihilate Iacon and every Transformer in it, Judge Starscream finally found Optimus Prime. Before he could pass his judgment on the Prime, Megatron returned aboard Astrotrain, attacking Starscream with exotic energy manipulation abilities that he had gained while in another reality. After Croaton left the battlefield, his mind freed by Windblade, Judge Starscream attempted to attack Astrotrain personally before both Prime and Megatron, having stolen one from another universe, unleashed the power of two Matrices of Leadership on the rogue Seeker, overwhelming him and bringing his reign of terror to an end. The End Of The Universe IV

Starscream's head, as depicted from his time as a Quintesson Judge, was eventually recovered at some point following the downfall of the Quintessons by Meteorfire and stored among his alien memorabilia. Alien Hunt! With Meteorfire And Cosmos

Alternate universe

In Megatron X's reality, after the tyrant fatally wounded Optimus Prime when his once friend refused to join the Decepticons, Starscream restrained Bumblebee alongside Shadow Striker. However, he was later executed by Megatron X, who claimed he outlived his usefulness after easily winning the Great War. The Other One

Tiny Turbo Changers

Delightfully tiny

• Starscream (Tiny Turbo Changer, 2019)
  • Series: 1
  • Bag code: K

Part of the first Series of Cyberverse Tiny Turbo Changers, Starscream is a soft-plastic robot who transforms into a tiny fighter jet.

This mold was also used to make Acid Storm and Slipstream

Scout Class

Less gerwalk and more "gerstand."

• Starscream (Scout Class, 2018-2021)
  • Action Attack: "Wing Slice"

Cyberverse Scout Class Starscream is roughly the size of a Legends Class figure that converts from robot to Gerwalk mode jet with limbs (Also known as a "transformational mode") and back. His wings swing around in a spring-loaded "Wing Slice" attack attached to his waist, which can be locked in using the landing gear. In transformational mode, Starscream can fold his legs up to approximate a more "complete" jet mode.

The figure was later redecoed into Slipstream.

Starscream has seen four releases: First in 2018 in the original Cyberverse packaging design, then in 2019 in the Power of the Spark subline imprint packaging refresh, then again in 2020 in the Battle for Cybertron subline imprint packaging refresh, and then again in 2021 in line's final Dinobots Unite subline imprint packaging refresh.

1-Step Changers

One-step, yet not enough knee articulation to take one.

• Starscream (1-Step Changer, 2018)

Cyberverse 1-Step Changers Starscream transforms from jet to robot by flipping the nosecone backwards. Due to some kind of distribution issue, this Starscream wound up being incredibly rare.

Warrior Class

All the side-kicking action you could ask for.

• Starscream (Warrior Class, 2018)
  • Action Attack: "Wing Slice"

Released as part of the first wave of Cyberverse Warrior Class lineup, this Starscream is a Deluxe-sized figure that converts from robot to jet and back. His "Wing Slice" Action Attack gimmick is activated by winding up a spring in his waist and releasing the upper part of the figure, allowing it to spin and flip out its spring-loaded wing blades with centrifugal force. The underside of these panels, normally hidden, are painted over in bright pink with large silver Decepticon Insignia. The waist can be locked in place by pegging his landing gear onto a peg on his backside. Additionally, he has non-firing Null Ray blasters molded into his forearms with 5 mm post hole hands.

While his arms have articulation comparable to other Cyberverse Warrior Class toys, Starscream has the unusual distinction of having his hip swivels molded together, meaning the front-to-back movement is in tandem. He also lacks knees, likely due to his whole legs being cast from the same grey plastic. Despite this otherwise restricted movement, he can splay his legs out to the sides due to hinges on his hips, allowing splits and high kicks. Also unusual, the middle recess on his forehead is shown as unpainted in promotional images (including on the back of his box) and yellow in character art, but is painted in metallic blue on the actual toy. He lacks the red stripes on the inner wings on the final product as well.

This mold was redecoed into Thundercracker, Acid Storm, Slipstream and EarthSpark Starscream and Skywarp.

• Optimus Prime & Starscream (2-pack, 2019)
  • Action Attack: "Wing Slice"

Released as part of the Power of the Spark sub-line, this Starscream is basically unchanged from the first release, and he is sold along with an equally unchanged Optimus Prime. The package also bears the logo for the franchise's 35th anniversary.

"Something's wrong. I transform into a heroic space ship?"

• Starscream ("Cybertronian Mode" Warrior Class, 2020-2021)
  • Action Attack: "Starseeker Missile"

This Warrior Class version of Starscream transforms into a Cybertronian jet that resembles the Vic Viper T-301 from Gradius V. His new Starseeker Missile Action Attack has his null rays (now fixed to his wings rather than his arms) flip up and forward. This Starscream has more show-accurate paint apps and proportions in robot mode than the last version, but only just. Differences include larger wings, transparent orange wing-mounted null rays, no outward movement in the arms, a more show accurate whitish plastic, darker blue paint and forearm plastic, painted hands, and separately jointed legs with knees of all things, plus many other features making him a different figure.

Due to his large wings extending so far above his head, he is packaged in a squatting position. His poor knees.

Unfortunately, his thighs and null-ray ports are prone to photodegradation.

This version of Starscream was released twice: First in 2020 under the Bumblebee: Cyberverse Adventures subline imprint, and then again in 2021 in the line's final Dinobots Unite subline imprint packaging refresh.

Sir Not-Appearing-As-A-Ghost-In-This-Cartoon

• Seekers Sinister Strikeforce (Multi-pack, 2020)
  • Action Attack: "Nova Seeker Missile"

This Cyberverse Starscream is a redeco of his Warrior Class "Cybertronian Mode" figure, using translucent plastics emulating a ghostly appearance. His action attack is renamed the "Nova Seeker Missile", and functions exactly the same as the last version of the mold.

Starscream was released exclusively at Target with fellow Seekers Skywarp, Thrust, and Thundercracker, all of whom were also redecoed from the same Starscream figure. The product was first sighted in July 2020 with no prior announcement from Hasbro.

Ultra Class

The Scout figure took the Gerwalk mode from Macross. The Ultra takes its missiles.

• Starscream (Ultra Class, 2018)
  • Japanese Name: Launcher Strike Starscream
  • Japanese Release Date: July 2019
  • JapanesE ID Number: TCV-04
  • Action Attack: "Starseeker Missile"

This Cyberverse Starscream is a Voyager-sized figure that converts from a robot to a jet with two giant missile pods under his wings and back. His Action Attack gimmick, when triggered, pops fourteen non-firing missiles from his missile pods (seven on each side), with molded 'smoke trails' to simulate a carpet bombing attack.

This toy was released in Nezha: Transformers packaging in Chinese markets.

Battle Class

Starscream saw Killdozer and thought he could do one better.

• Starscream (Battle Class, 2019)
  • Japanese Name: Shovel Fighter Starscream
  • Japanese Release Date: September 2019
  • Japanese ID Number: TCV-14
  • Spark Armor: "Demolition Destroyer"

Cyberverse Battle Class Starscream is a smaller (about the size of older Scout Class toys), less Action Attack-laden mold that transforms from robot to a fighter jet. He comes with the "Demolition Destroyer" bulldozer accessory that also splits into 4 parts to form his battle armor. He features very few paint applications, which is more evident than his larger Warrior class figure due to being uniformly cast in dark grey plastic. He also features more articulation that his previous toy, with ball joints in his shoulders and hips as well as elbow, knee, and waist joints. His bulldozer armor becomes a new helmet, leg armor, and a shovel weapon. His forearms also sport hexagonal, 5 mm post compatible ports. His transformation scheme is similar to the Thrilling 30 and Authentics figures.

Deluxe Class

• Starscream (Deluxe Class, 2020-2021)
  • Accessories: Null rays, 3 effect parts
  • Action Attack: "Seeker Strike"

Cyberverse Deluxe Starscream transforms from Cybertronian jet to robot. Like his wavemates, Starscream does not come with a piece to a Build-A-Figure like previous Deluxes. What he lacks in BAF pieces he more than makes up for with accessories- Starscream includes his null rays, two laser blast effect parts, and a relatively large "missile launching" effect piece meant to emulate his chest missiles from the cartoon. For some extra articulation, detaching the wings and nosecone in robot mode allows the cockpit-head assembly to move up, giving enough clearance for the waist transformation joint to be used as an ab-crunch, as well as letting the torso's side panels free to be used as a pair of butterfly joints.

Similar to various other figures of Cyberverse Starscream, Deluxe Class Starscream was also released twice: First in 2020 under the Bumblebee: Cyberverse Adventures subline imprint, and then again in 2021 in the line's final Dinobots Unite subline imprint packaging refresh.

Like the rest of the fifth wave Deluxes, Starscream does not see release in Japan by Takara Tomy. This mold was also used twice to make the EarthSpark Starscream deluxe class toys.

Battle Call

JET SLIGER COME CLOSER

• Starscream (Battle Call Trooper, 2020)
  • Accessories: Whip, 2 claws, body armor

Released as part of the Battle Call subline, Trooper Class Starscream is a roughly deluxe-sized figure that transforms into a Cybertronian jet in much the same way as the Cybertronian Mode Warrior figure above. He features molded on Null-rays and includes a whip weapon that gives his jet mode a tail. Like his sub-line brethren, Starscream features a "Battle Call" voice-activated gimmick, wherein if you flip the on-switch on his shoulder and shout really loud at him (or just blow on his torso), the electronic light in his chest glows slightly brighter and sometimes flashes. Strangely, his head and hands are painted bronze.

Buzzworthy Bumblebee

• Optimus Prime / Bumblebee / Megatron / Starscream (Warrior Class 4-pack, 2021)
  • Series: Cyberverse

Part of the cross-Generations Buzzworthy Bumblebee subline, the first Warrior Class Starscream was re-released without any changes for this 4-pack along with Optimus Prime, Bumblebee and Cybertronian Megatron.

• Starscream (1-Step Changer, 2023)
  • Series: Cyberverse

The 1-Step Changer Starscream was re-released without any changes in a Buzzworthy Bumblebee packaging.

Merchandise

McDonald's

• Starscream (Happy Meal Toy, 2019)

Released as part of the Happy Meal promotion for Cyberverse, Starscream is a 4-inch-tall non-transforming figure with articulation at the neck, hips and arms. As an Action Masters-esque play feature, he includes a small excavator (reminiscent of his Battle Class toy) that can be split in half and attached to various pins around his body as weapons or pieces of armor.

• Starscream (Happy Meal Toy, 2021)

Released only in Singapore in January 2021, Starscream is a non-transforming figure with limited articulation. The chest of the figure has a panel with a lenticular image sticker on it which changes angle when the left arm is moved. Moving the panel causes the image on his chest to change.

Burger King

• Starscream (Burger King Toy, 2019)

Oddly enough released just one month before the aforementioned Happy Meal toy, Burger King's take on Starscream is a non-transforming figure that also looks rather reminiscent to his Battle Class toy with the inclusion of yellow excavator parts sculpted on his body as armor. His hips are articulated and both his arms can be flung upwards at the same time by pressing an action feature button on the rear. Interestingly, he includes a decal sheet for his chest, wings and legs, making him the only one of the four Burger King Cyberverse toys to feature stickers.

Nezha: Transformers

• Starscream (Onebot set, 2020)
  • Set number: OBHZZ03HZB
  • Pieces: 860+

Released by Xiaomi as part of the Chinese-centric Nezha: Transformers toyline and under their MITU brand, this Starscream is a "Lego Technic"-style building kit that can be assembled into either a very large poseable robot mode or a jet mode with a stand. Similar to how most Kre-O figures work, Starscream must be disassembled and reassembled in order to change from one mode to the next. Building instructions are available on the official app for mobile devices and Windows. Robot mode requires 861 parts assembled over 812 steps, jet mode takes 598 parts and 538 steps.

• Starscream (Blind-box building doll, 2021)
  • Set number: OBBXJG100AIQI
  • Pieces: 321 + 8 spares

This "blind-box building doll" Starscream uses the same style of construction as the Onebot set above, but is a much smaller kit resulting in a super-deformed robot mode that lacks a rebuildable vehicle mode. The resulting figure is about 21cm (8.25in) in height with 14 ball joints providing main points of articulation. Building instructions are spread over 3 booklets for a total of 71 steps. The stickersheet includes 4 stickers for additional details. While the pieces are compatible with Lego, it also uses some unique parts (not limited to head and hands) so it cannot be directly recreated using just Lego pieces.

The only useful part of me is my stand

• Smart Building Block Transformers (Onebot set, 2021)
  • Set number: OBTFS27AIQI
  • Pieces: 518 (this build uses 213)

This Starscream is one of the 9 builds with provided instructions for the LEGO Mindstorms-like set, featuring a Transformers-branded programmable module, two motors and inertial data sensor. The module can be programmed via an app using a Scratch-like drag-and-drop "language" or Python. The plane build doesn't include any motors or sensors and its play feature is described as displaying angular velocity - sounds fun! It requires 213 pieces over 192 steps of building instructions, which are available in the mobile and Windows app, same as the large Onebot sets.

Notes

All rise for the dishonorable Judge Mental.

• As with some of the Cyberverse cast, Starscream's design is based on the Evergreen design also used for his Generation 1 counterpart, with some minor stylistic tweaks that, unlike almost every other version of Starscream in existence, make him look different from his Seeker comrades aside from paint jobs. However, this is not reflected on their toys, as all current toys of the Seekers are simple redecos of Starscream's (save Ultra Class Slipstream).
  • Firstly, he has a unique head sculpt that is very different from the other default "male" and "female" heads the rest of the Seekers use. Secondly, his wings are wide with a zigzagging edge compared to the other Seekers' narrow wings with a sharp tip at the end. Lastly, he has forearm-mounted null-rays whereas the other Seekers have their null-rays mounted on their upper arms.
• Starscream's voice actor in the Japanese dub gives him the same mannerisms and histrionic personality as Prime Starscream had in the Japanese dub of his respective show.
• Starscream's death in "The End Of The Universe IV" hurt Mae Catt the most. She wanted Starscream to emerge from the remains of his Quintesson Judge body and conceived a redemption arc, though she is okay this got scrapped.^[2]
