:''The Europa 2000 is a car race in the [[Generation 1 (franchise)|Generation 1]] continuity family.''

[[Image:Europa 2000.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Funny geography in the Sunbow cartoon universe!]]
The '''Europa 2000''' stretches from Paris to Istanbul, a course of some 2000 miles, with racers from all over the world participating for its million dollar prize.

In reality, the Race was arranged by Megatron to bring American driver [[Auggie Cahnay (G1)|Auggie Cahnay]] to him in Istanbul. {{storylink|Trans-Europe Express|Trans-Europe Express}}

==Trivia==
*The map of the Europa 2000's route does not conform to the international borders that existed at the time in the real world. This ''perhaps'' suggests that in the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|Generation 1 animated universe]], as of 1985 the following things have occurred:
**Spain has annexed the Montpellier region of France.
**[[France]] has conquered Belgium, Luxembourg and a large portion of Germany (and probably also Poland).
**Paris has been relocated to the place where Saint-Étienne is located in the real world.
**Istanbul has moved from the coast of Europe to inland Asia Minor.
**Bulgaria has conquered Greece and renamed itself into "Bulgalia".
**Austria now incorporates Slovenia and thus borders the Mediterranean Sea (however small the coast may be).
**Czechoslovakia has renamed itself into "Ciech", a slight mangling of the acceptable abbreviation "Czech." This probably occurred because of sloppy handwriting.
**Switzerland has been abbreviated into "Switz", which is understandable for its visible size.
**Hungary gained back some of its former land.
**Romania goes by its accepted alternate spelling of "Rumania".
**Russia incorporates the Ukraine, thereby bordering the Black Sea, and shares Poland's former territory with France.
**Corsica, Sardinia, Crete and any other large-scale islands other than Sicily are completely gone.
*One might wonder how much the Transformers' presence on Earth has added to this massive territorial shuffle...
*Alternately, of course, it could just be a particularly poor map.
*Additionally, the map does not include the [[Soviet Union]], instead including a country simply labeled "[[Russia]]". The Soviet Union was shown to exist in the earlier Season 2 episode "[[Prime Target]]" as well as later in the Season 3 episode "[[Thief in the Night]]", set in 2006. Then again, it was not uncommon to refer to the Soviet Union as a whole as "Russia", even though this is inaccurate.

{{factions|autobot|eliteguard}}
:''Dion is an [[Autobot]] from the [[Generation 1 (franchise)|Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:Diong1.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Anyone ever tell you that you look just like Wheelie? No? Oh. How about Hot Shot?]]
'''Dion''' is an earnest dock worker and best friend to [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Orion Pax]]. His is a simple life of manual labor, and he does not give a second thought to the stories that a war may be brewing around him. What ''does'' interest him are those [[Decepticon|new-fangled flying robots]]. Maybe someday he'll get to meet them…?

==Fiction==
===Generation 1 cartoon===
:''Voice actor:'' [[Corey Burton]] (English), [[Ken Shiroyama]] (Japanese)

Nine million years ago, near the end of [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]'s [[Golden Age]], it was Dion's job to haul energy and supplies in and out of [[storage yard 67|the dock]] in which he worked. There were murmurs of attacks from new, flying robots, but he didn't believe those rumours.

[[Image:Dionvehicle.jpg|left|250px|thumb|Cybertron's "Golden Age" was a pretty literal title, if you look.]]
Dion was honored to meet the leader of these enigmatic warriors, [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]], until Megatron revealed his plan to rob their dock of its [[Energon (fuel)|energon]] stockpiles and ordered the [[Transport drone|Decepticons]] to attack. Witnessing Megatron strike down Orion and [[Elita One|Ariel]], another friend and Orion's girlfriend, Dion ran (seemingly straight towards the attacking Decepticon warriors for reasons unclear), but was quickly mowed down by a shot in his chest.

The time-traveling [[Aerialbot (G1)|Aerialbots]] carried Orion Pax to [[Alpha Trion (G1)|Alpha Trion]] for repairs, and Dion's friend was rebuilt into Optimus Prime. Drones were sent back to retrieve Ariel, but Dion's ultimate fate is uncertain. {{storylink|War Dawn}}
{{-}}

===''Timelines: Wings of Honor''===
{{spoiler|Wings of Honor}}
In a similar but divergent timeline, Dion definitely survived Megatron's raid on [[storage yard 67]], but just barely. Once repaired, and now fully knowledgeable of the extent of Megatron's evil, he signed up for the [[Elite Guard]]. He began working under [[Metalhawk]], fighting Decepticons by any means necessary in the growing war.

Dion's new twin flame launchers utilize a "reverse-Higgs Mechanism" to "decouple energy from matter," which makes things very destructible. Though rebuilt, he can still modify his arms to accommodate the need to carry heavy objects, a skill he possessed as a dock worker. Unfortunately, his new shoulders kind of lock up, which restricts his arms' movement. {{storylink|Wings of Honor|Dion's profile in the Diamond-exclusive version of ''Wings of Honor''}}
{{-}}

==Who is Dion?==
[[Image:DieDionDie.jpg|right|200px|thumb|Nobody ever suggests the purple guy got rebuilt. Poor purple guy.]]
Orion Pax and Ariel were rebuilt into Optimus Prime and Elita One, respectively, so many fans have speculated that Dion was also rebuilt into a familiar character. However, there are no hints within the episode itself, other than that Dion was Orion's best friend. Regardless, the fandom loves its patterns, and thus the most popular suggestions are [[Ironhide (G1)|Ironhide]] and [[Ultra Magnus (G1)|Ultra Magnus]].

Some think the debate is irrelevant, believing Dion most likely dead and inconsequential, and possibly a casualty that hit close to home in Optimus Prime's early years as [[Supreme Commander|Autobot leader]]. After all, no specific mention is made of him in the episode after he is shot, but Ariel is mentioned repeatedly.

The reason for this is that writer [[David Wise]] originally intended for both Ariel and Dion to die in order to add some weight to the episode. Upon reading the script for "War Dawn", colleagues of Wise made the connection between Ariel and Elita One (a character whom David Wise did not know of) as love interest of Orion Pax/Optimus Prime.<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20040806162116/iesb.net/collecting/collecting63004.htm Interview with David Wise]</ref> This saved Ariel's life in the final product, as it was an obvious idea to have her rebuilt into a soldier alongside Orion. Any similar connection for Dion was never made, though the resulting conclusion on his fate in the episode gets into the realm of [[authorial intent]].<ref name="Moonbase2">[http://moonbase2.libsyn.com/index.php?post_id=553015 Moonbase2 interview with David Wise]</ref>

===Ironhide===
Ironhide could easily be Optimus Prime's oldest friend, and so he would seem like a good fit.

===Ultra Magnus===
[[Image:Bumper-funeral.jpg|right|thumb|200px|Let's count the number of continuity kerfuffles in this image!]]
Ultra Magnus is a popular suggestion among the fans. One argument is that Magnus' cab, as toy and in the fiction of later continuities, turns into a white version of the original Optimus Prime body design. It would stand to reason that if Alpha Trion rebuilt both of them at roughly the same time, they would have similar designs. Within the cartoon though, the cab did not become a separate, Optimus Prime-like robot. Another argument is that Optimus calls Magnus "old friend" when he passes the [[Matrix of Leadership]] to him in the [[The Transformers: The Movie|movie]] (but, really, Optimus calls everybody that).

To many, Ultra Magnus, being a large, powerful character with a Latinate name in a leadership role, seems a fitting completion to a potential triumvirate of Optimus Prime, Elita One, and Ultra Magnus as the first modern Autobots built by Alpha Trion.

On top of author David Wise's comments on not intending either Dion or Ariel to survive, several other writers for the Generation 1 cartoon have stated in interviews that they did not write any episodes with the upcoming movie and third season in mind, further nixing ideas that Dion was ever "meant" to become Magnus. Later, David Wise said he finds the thought of Dion having been rebuilt as Ultra Magnus rather humorous.<ref name="Moonbase2" />

In later years, various hints and references in subsequent Transformers stories have implied that Dion was Ultra Magnus.

* In the [[Robots in Disguise (cartoon)|''Robots in Disguise'' animated series]], it's stated that [[Alpha Trion (RID)|Alpha Trion]] built both [[Optimus Prime (RID)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Ultra Magnus (RID)|Ultra Magnus]], a likely nod to the Generation 1 cartoon. {{storylink|Ultra Magnus: Forced Fusion!}}

* In the [[Dreamwave Productions|Dreamwave]] [[Dreamwave Generation One continuity|comics continuity]], Ultra Magnus leads [[Security Team Dion]], another nod. {{storylink|New World Order}}

* In the [[IDW Publishing|IDW]] [[IDW Generation 1 continuity|comics continuity]] a robot that is a hybrid of the "Orion Pax" and "Optronix" designs appears listening to [[Sentinel Prime (G1)|Sentinel Prime]]'s speech at the funeral of [[Bumper (G1)|Bumper]] and [[Fastback]]. Standing with him are Elita One, Alpha Trion, and a white version of himself. This may be a reference to the proposed Orion-Ariel-Dion/Optimus-Elita-Magnus identifications. {{storylink|Megatron Origin issue 3}}

* In the Dreamwave ''[[More Than Meets The Eye (G1)|More Than Meets The Eye]]'' reference books it is mentioned in Alpha Trion's profile that he shares a "special bond" with both Ultra Magnus and Optimus Prime. This is possibly a hint that he rebuilt Ultra Magnus as well, given that his bond with Optimus began when he rebuilt him and as a result, Optimus looked up to him as a father figure.

''However'', because all of these [[Easter egg|easter eggs]] take place in different [[Continuity|continuities]] from the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|Generation 1 cartoon series]], they are not directly relevant.

===Dion===
The ''[[Timelines]]'' story "[[Wings of Honor]]" makes the wild assertion that Dion is ...Dion. Well played, [[Fun Publications]], well played!

{{suite}}[[Image:MP Starscream book cover art.jpg|right|300px|thumb|"Next person who says '[[Dull surprise]]' gets a null-ray to the face!"]]
Many toys have been made of [[Generation 1 (franchise)|Generation 1]] '''[[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]]''', enough to warrant this page!

==Toys==
===Generation 1===
[[Image:G1Starscream toy.jpg|right|400px|thumb|[[Skywarp (G1)|Then]] [[Sunstorm (G1)|about]] [[Thundercracker (G1)|eight]] [[:Image:G1BlackStarscream toy.jpg|million]] [[Seeker (body-type)|redecos]] [[E-Hobby|followed]].]]
* '''Starscream''' (Decepticon Jet, 1984/1985/1986)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''22'''
**''Accessories:'' Left & right fists, 2 missile launchers, 2 null-rays, 2 cluster bombs, left & right wings, left & right tail fins, left & right tail wings, landing gear

: Starscream's first toy began life as "Jet Robo" from the ''[[Diaclone]]'' line, transforming into a grey, red and blue F-15 Eagle fighter jet. To transform Starscream, one must essentially take most of his plane parts off and transform his body, then reattach most of plane parts on again, along with the addition of two blue fists. If you don't mind being fiddly, though, transformation can certainly be achieved by only removing the fists, weapons and landing gear (which can store in Starscream's cockpit). Owing to the modular nature of his design and the fact that it is impossible to store all the parts in either mode, it can be quite difficult to find an intact original set of this toy.

:Starscream is armed with a pair of missile launchers that mount on his arms in robot mode, and under his wings in jet mode, with a pair of specialized projectiles for each. In jet mode, two short "[[cluster bomb]]" projectiles are fitted into the launchers to make them resemble the drop tanks a real F-15 carries, while in robot mode, they are replaced with the long barrels of Starscream's [[null-ray]]s. The original ''Diaclone'' version of the mold featured spring-loaded firing mechanisms in these launchers; while this feature was removed for the [[Hasbro]] release of the toy, it was left intact for the [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] version, and all subsequent reissues.

:The ''Diaclone'' version of the Starscream mold featured tailfins with solid tips and solid fists, and both these features carried over to the earliest ''Transformers'' edition of the future. Soon, however, the ''Transformers'' mold was modified to add hollow tips to the fins, and tabs to the insides of the fists to allow them to hold onto his arms tighter, resulting in a visible slit on either side of each one. These altered versions became the standard for all subsequent reissues of the mold. Like all his 1984 brethren, a [[rubsign]] was added to Starscream in 1985.

: Starscream's mold was [[Redeco|redecoed]] into the concurrently-available [[Thundercracker (G1)|Thundercracker]] and [[Skywarp (G1)|Skywarp]], who were at the centre of a mix-up that involved all three jets' [[Tech Spec]] numbers being switched around (Starscream was given Skywarp's stats by mistake). It would later be redecoed again to make [[Sunstorm (G1)|Sunstorm]], and [[Retool|retooled]] into [[Dirge (G1)|Dirge]], [[Ramjet (G1)|Ramjet]], and [[Thrust (G1)|Thrust]]. On top of this, given his role as a major Generation 1 character, Starscream himself would be reissued many times down the years; this article strives to list each reissue of the figure under its own header. The long lifespan of his toy actually began in 1986, when Starscream remained part of the assortment for that year despite the departure of nearly every other 1984 toy from store shelves.

:The second release of Starscream's toy came with this Japanese-exclusive two-pack, which saw him packaged alongside [[Megatron (G1)/toys|Megatron]], in commemoration of the Decepticon leader's passing ([[Galvatron (G1)|of sorts]]) in ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]''.

:The first new Starscream toy since the original brought the treacherous Air Commander back as a [[Classic Pretender]]. He still transforms into a grey, red and blue F-15 fighter jet, though his vehicle mode now borders on the [[super deformed]]. He is armed with a pair of blue lasers, which become his tail fins in jet mode.

:Starscream's two-piece [[Pretender]] shell resembles a human in a teal, grey and brown space armored suit with a removable helmet. The shell is armed with a large blue rifle, and while Starscream is stored inside it, his removable grey wings store in holes on the shell's back. There is, however, nowhere to store Starscream's tail fins.

:Released exclusively in Japan, this giftset contained the "Legends" versions of Pretender Starscream and his fellow Classic Pretenders, [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#Legend|Bumblebee]], [[Jazz (G1)#Legend|Jazz]], and [[Grimlock (G1)#Legend|Grimlock]]. This version of Starscream featured a silver face, as opposed to the Hasbro version's black.

: [[Action Master]] Starscream is a non-transforming action figure based loosely on his cartoon [[character model]], but using a color scheme derived from the Pretender toy. His main accessory is the [[Turbo Jet]], a small personal attack craft that Starscream can set astride like a motorcycle. The Turbo Jet rolls on three small wheels, and can transform into a gun emplacement.

: Available concurrently with the 2001 reissue of the original Generation 1 Starscream figure, "Starscream Ghost Version" is an [[E-Hobby]] [[exclusive]] redeco of the 2001 Starscream reissue, cast almost entirely in translucent plastics (except for those parts made of die-cast metal) in homage to Starscream's tenure as a ghost in the third season of the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|Generation 1 cartoon]]. To make the toy further match Starscream's cartoon appearance, it features a notably lighter shade of blue, and a translucent orange cockpit as opposed to the traditional smoky grey. The toy came in unique monochrome-blue window box packaging featuring [[CGI]] artwork of Starscream.

: The second e-Hobby-exclusive redeco available concurrently with the 2001 reissue of the original Generation 1 Starscream toy, "Starscream Black Version" sports a color scheme loosely based upon ''[[Machine Wars]]'' [[#Machine_Wars|Starscream]], despite the only real point of similarity being that they're both black. The toy's [[bio]] makes a rare fictional reference to ''Machine Wars'', describing the events of the series in the past tense. The toy shared the window-box packaging of the "Ghost Version" (see above), except it's box was monochrome-black.

: The third exclusive redeco of the original Generation 1 Starscream toy released alongside the 2001 reissues, "Starscream Secret Version" was available through the [[Lucky Draw figure|Lucky Draw]] contest held in conjunction with the first edition of ''[[Transformers Generations]]'' (with a ''[[Super Collection Figure]]'' Skywarp figurine as second prize). The figure was limited to only ''five'' pieces, making it one of the rarest officially-released ''Transformers'' toys in the world, and to cap it off, the toy was not actually ''shown'' during the contest, hence its "Secret" moniker. Given its amazingly limited availability, it's not even known with 100% certainly ''what the toy looks like'', but the collectors from [http://www.transformertoys.co.uk Transformers @ The Moon] believe that the figure in their possession (pictured here), which renders all of Starscream's plastic parts (except for the black pieces) as clear and colorless, is one of the five. Most Lucky Draw collectors agree, although at least one rumor suggests the toy might have been entirely red! In fact, it has even been suggested that both this toy and the ''SCF'' Skywarp were ''not'' officially released, due to the bankruptcy of ''Generations'' publisher [[Keibunsha]].

* '''Starscream''' (Decepticon Jet, 1993)
**''Accessories:'' Left & right fists, left & right wings, left & right tail fins, left & right tail wings, landing gear, 2 missile launchers, 3 missiles, sound/light energy unit

:Starscream's ''[[Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' release is a slight [[retool]] of his original toy, armed with new, fumctional spring-loaded launchers and missiles, and an electronic light-and-sound "energy unit" in the shape of a tank. The electronic box lights up with the press of either button, and emits electronic "machine gun" or "jet engine" noises. In robot mode, the box attaches to Starscream's back; in jet mode, it plugs into his tail-end.

:The new accessories were also used, in different colors, for ''Generation 2'' Ramjet.

*'''A.T.B. Megatron with Starscream''' (unreleased)
**''Accessories'': 12 missiles, 2 missiles launchers

: A planned-but-canceled redeco of ''Generation 2'' [[Dreadwing (G2)|Dreadwing]], "Advancted Tactical Bomber" Megatron would have come with Starscream, a redeco of Deadwing's partner [[Smokescreen (G2)|Smokescreen]]. The pair could combine into the "flying wing" Advanced Tactical Bomber, while Starscream coud detach to become a smaller solo jet, leaving Megatron to transform into a treaded tank mode. According the Toy Fair 1995 Transformers presentation, the toy's missiles were intended to glow in the dark.

: This toy's deco (but not the glow-in-the-dark missiles) was used to make ''[[Beast Wars II (franchise)|Beast Wars II]]'''s [[BB]] and [[Starscream (BWII)|Starscream]] out of the same mold-set. This mold was also used to make ''Robots in Disguise'' [[Dreadwind (RID)|Dreadwind]] and [[Smokejumper]], while Starscream's mold was sold separately during the ''[[Robot Masters (franchise)|Robot Masters]]'' line as [[Smokesniper]].

===Machine Wars===
* '''Starscream''' (Ultra, 1997)[[Image:MWStarscream Toy.jpg|right|300px|thumb|I have no mouth and I must Starscream.]]
**''Accessories:'' 10 missiles
: Starscream's ''[[Machine Wars]]'' incarnation is a redeco of the [[Predator]] [[Skyquake (G1)|Skyquake]], transforming into a large bomber jet based vaguely upon an SR-71 Blackbird. The main feature of the toy is its "carpet bombing" gimmick; each wing contains a drum that holds up to four missiles, which drop out as the drum is rotated. A further two missiles can also store on each wing, and one on each side of his fuselage, but while Skyquake came with enough missiles to fill all these ports, Starscream only comes with ten. The short length of the missiles necessary for this gimmick to function means that Starscream does not come with Skyquake's firing missile launcher, since the missiles are shorter than [[for safety reasons|safety reasons]] allow, although it is incorrectly shown on his packaging. Starscream also lacks Skyquake's [[Megavisor]] gimmick.

:Starscream is known to have come with both grey missiles, better fitting his new color scheme, and later, bright green missiles like Skyquake's.

: This mold was later redecoed to make [[King Atlas]].

===Transtech===

* '''Starscream'''

: Starscream would have been made available in the aborted ''[[Transcendent Technomorph|Transtech]]'' series in 2001. Control art and early [[Prototype]] images have surfaced, showing that the toy would have been at the Deluxe scale and featured internal lighting mechanisms that changed color depending on its mode. The toy is clearly a homage to his ''Machine Wars'' body, which at the time of ''Transtech's'' intended release would have been the last form Starscream had inhabited in American markets.

: In 2008, this design would be [[Repurposing|repurposed]] as the [[Transcendent Technomorph|TransTech]] universe's [[Starscream (TransTech)|Starscream]].

===Commemorative Series===
[[Image:G1toy_commemorative_starscream.jpg|right|thumb|300px]]
*'''Starscream''' (2003)
**''Accessories:'' Left & right fists, 2 missile launchers, 2 null-rays, 2 cluster bombs, left & right wings, left & right tail fins, left & right tail wings, landing gear

:The first reissue of the original Starscream toy in North America since the Generation 1 toyline reached its end, this "[[Commemorative Series]]" edition of the figure was a [[Toys"R"Us]] exclusive. It featured functional missile launchers for the first time on a Hasbro version of the toy, but because the launchers now worked, both sets of missiles had to be lengthened [[for safety reasons]]. This didn't work out ''so'' badly with the null-rays, but the cluster bombs just wound up looking ''stupid''.

===Transformers Collection===

*'''Starscream''' (2003)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''9'''
**''Accessories:'' Left & right fists, 2 missile launchers, 2 null-rays, 2 cluster bombs, left & right wings, left & right tail fins, left & right tail wings, landing gear, two-piece gun-mode Megatron, [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] fist

:As another in an increasingly large number of reissues of the original Generation 1 Starscream toy, this entry in the Japanese-exclusive ''[[Transformers Collection]]'' line of reissues decided to mix things up by giving the figure a full-scale redeco into [[show-accuracy|show-accurate]] colors. His blue plastic became much lighter, while his cockpit was made bright orange, and even featured new grey paint applications running across it. Several of his stickers were replaced with new, show-accurate paint applications, including new wing-stripes and [[tampograph]]ed Decepticon symbols on his wings and nosecone (of course, Starscream didn't have one on his nosecone in the cartoon, so it isn't perfect!).

:Starscream's fists were remolded with new circular peg-holes so he could wield his missile launchers in his hands, which also worked in conjunction with a new tab on the fists' undersides to allow him to hold his new accessory: Megatron in gun mode. This miniature Megatron splits into two pieces at the handle, with each half plugging into the new hole and tab added to each of Starscream's fists. Megatron can also plug into Starscream's underside in jet mode, replicating the time the characters linked up in this fashion in the cartoon episode, "[[S.O.S. Dinobots]]". The set also came with a remolded fist for the original Optimus Prime toy, allowing him to hold the Megatron accessory, and a DVD featuring a trailer for the upcoming video game ''[[Transformers: Call of the Future]]'' and Japanese toy [[commercial]]s for Optimus Prime, [[Hot Rod (G1)|Rodimus Prime]] and [[Chromedome (G1)|Chromedome]].

* '''Starscream''' (2003)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''GTF-03'''
**''Accessories:'' Left & right fists, 2 missile launchers/cluster bombs, left & right wings, left & right tailfins

: Standing at only two inches tall, ''[[Smallest Transforming Transformers]]'' Starscream is a ''very'' small-scale simplification of the original Starscream toy. It retains a surprising amount of the larger toy's functionality and accessories, except its tail fins and wings are combined into single pieces, and his null rays and landing gear are left out.

:This mold was, of course, redecoed into ''Smallest Transforming'' versions of Skywarp and Thundercracker, and retooled into Thrust.

===Robot Masters===
*'''Starscream''' (Deluxe, 2004)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''RM-12'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 null rays, 2 missile pods[[Image:RobotMastersStarscream toy.jpg|right|300px|thumb|I have thighs?]]

: Starscream's ''[[Robot Masters (franchise)|Robot Masters]]'' toy is a re-imagining of the original Generation 1 figure, retaining its basic transformation scheme, but designed to be closer to the animation model, with greater articulation and integrated parts that do not require detachment during transformation. The only pieces that now need to be removed are Starscream's null ray rifles, which move from his wings to his arms. He has three peg-holes on each arm, allowing the null rays to be mounted on his shoulders, on his forearms, or in his fists. These holes are also designed to accomodate the generic spring-loaded missile launcher weapon included with ''Robot Masters'' [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Robot Masters|G1 Convoy]], [[Optimus Primal/toys#Robot Masters|Beast Convoy]] and [[Megatron (BW)/toys#Robot Masters|Beast Megatron]].

:Starscream came with two "missile pods" based on weapons Starscream used but once, in the Generation 1 cartoon episode "[[Fire on the Mountain]]". These chromed accessories plug into the square holes in Starscream's chest, and feature opening covers that reveal (non-firing) missiles within.

: This mold was redecoed into ''Robot Masters'' [[Skywarp (G1)|Skywarp]] and [[Thundercracker (G1)|Thundercracker]].

**''Accessories:'' 2 null rays, 2 missile pods, Jamming Trident

: Available only via mail-order through ''Figure King'' magazine, the "Limited Black Version" of Starscream is just that: a straight [[black repaint]] of the Starscream toy, replacing the original toy's blue, red and the grey of his wings with black. He comes with all his original accessories, as well as a gold-chromed version of the "Jamming Trident" [[Solitarium]] weapon that came with [[Wingstun]].

===Masterpiece===
[[Image:MasterpieceStarscream toy.jpg|right|375px|thumb|And the fandom complained (and rejoiced).]]
* '''Starscream''' (2006)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MP-3'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 null rays, 2 missile racks, Doctor Arkeville pilot figurine, gun clip, two-piece display stand

:The second new mold in [[TakaraTomy|Takara]]'s ''Masterpiece'' line, this highly-detailed version of Starscream is the "odd man out" of the series, eschewing the slavish cartoon-accuracy of the other ''Masterpiece'' figures in favor of creating as accurate an F-15 Eagle alternate mode as possible, with a somewhat more stylized robot mode. The toy features several unintrusive built-in gimmicks, including ''numerous'' opening panels on his jet-mode surface (highlighting the attention this mode recieved), flip-up panels in his chest that reveal missile racks based on the weapons seen in the Generation 1 episode "Fire on the Mountain", and a rotating face that allows Starscream to switch his expression from stony-faced to sneering. Owners of the toy are given quite a few customization options, as Starscream comes with an extensive sheet of sticker decals, including variously sized Decepticon symbols, and squadron numbers and markings, including one of [[Waspinator (BW)|Waspinator]]!

:In addition to his built-in features, Starscream comes with several accessories. He is armed with both his traditional null-ray rifles, but his familiar cluster bombs are replaced with a rack of (slightly inaccurate) Sidewinder missiles. He also comes with a clip that mounts under his nosecone, allowing him to hold the Megatron pistol accessory that came with [[Optimus_Prime_(G1)/toys#20th_Anniversary.2FMasterpiece|''20th Anniversary'' Optimus Prime]] in emulation of the way the characters linked up in "S.O.S. Dinobots", and a small figurine of [[Doctor Arkeville]], his partner in crime from several first-season episodes of the Generation 1 cartoon, which can fit in his cockpit. Finally, he includes a two-piece, reconfigurable display base that allows the figure to be posed in mid-flight in either jet or robot mode, and which can store Starscream's accessories while they are not in use. [[Control drawing|Control art]] for ''Masterpiece'' Starscream shows the figure wearing his [[Crown|Crown of Leadership]] (as seen in the coronation scene of the original animated movie), which, combined with some otherwise-pointless flip-out notches in the finished toy's shoulders, strongly indicate Takara intended to either include with the figure, or release in the future, a set of clip-on coronation gear that has failed to emerge in the years since the toy's release.

: ''Masterpiece'' Starscream's creation was overseen by famed Japanese mecha designer [[Shōji Kawamori]], who was particularly intent on hiding the robot-mode details on the underside of the fighter mode. The first prototype for the figure was essentially an upgraded, more complex version of the original toy, with much more accurate robot and jet modes, but Kawamori's desire to avoid simply making a new version of an old toy saw the figure go through a major redesign into its finished form. Perhaps the most notable change was the repositioning of major structures from Starscream's legs to his hips, with the intent of creating the feel of a samurai wearing a pair of swords at his waist (presumably, if somewhat oddly, based on the then-recent ''[[Armada]]'' and ''[[Energon]]'' cartoons' portrayal of their [[Starscream (Armada)|Starscream]] as a noble swordsman). Even so, Kawamori was still unhappy with the amount of robotic parts visible underneath the plane, but conceded that too many changes would essentially not make the toy look like Starscream in robot mode. In this pursuit of realism, the most visible concession to the Starscream's design was the abandonment of his traditional color scheme, replaced with an all-over greenish-tinged grey. Given that this color is inaccurate even to real F-15 fighters (whose Gunship Gray coloration is ''much'' closer to Starscream's traditional shade), the question of why it was changed at all is not an unreasonable one.

:This mold was later redecoed into ''Masterpiece'' versions of Skywarp and Thundercracker, and was recolored by Hasbro into a more cartoon-accurate Starscream color scheme released under their ''[[#Classics|Classics]]'' line.

===Classics===
[[Image:ClassicsStarscream toy.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Fear my extra-long null rays!!!]]
* '''Starscream''' (Deluxe, 2006)
**''Accessories:'' 2 null-ray cannons (left and right), 2 missiles

: Like the other entries in the ''[[Classics (2006)|Classics]]'' series, Starscream is faithful "modernizing" of his original Generation 1 form, updating his original toy with modern standards of toy engineering, transformation, sculpting detail and articulation (not dissimilar in principle from his ''[[#Robot Masters|Robot Masters]]'' incarnation, but with less of an adherence to his cartoon [[character model]]). Sharing many design elements with his ''[[#Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' toy, Starscream still transforms into an F-15 Eagle, but has the nose of an [[wikipedia:F-14_Tomcat|F-14 Tomcat]] fighter jet. His color scheme is, of course, based on the traditional Starscream palette, but seems to owe its new layout to [[wikipedia:Image:F-15A_first_prototype_2.jpg|the original F-15 prototype]].

:As ever, Starscream is armed with his familiar null-rays, which mount under his wings, on his shoulders or in his fists, and fire spring-loaded projectiles. The large size of his null-rays (necessary for safety reasons) restrict his arm movement somewhat in robot mode, as they bump into his wings. Like all ''Classics'' figures, he has a heat-activated rubsign on his left wing. Certain of Starscream's pieces, like his back panel and tailfin assemblies, are made of unusually rigid gray plastic that is slightly prone to cracking or breaking, and should be handled with care.

: Later versions of Starscream saw a [[retool]] in the jet intake area, which involved the slope of his shoulders being decreased, and a fifth small rectangle being added to the vertical area. This version of Starscream is the harder to find of the two, but was redecoed to create Starscream's ''[[#Heneki! Henkei!|Henkei! Henkei!]]'' counterpart, ''Classics'' [[Skywarp (G1)#Classics|Skywarp]] (on whom the retool was first observed), ''[[Timelines]]'' [[Thundercracker (G1)#Classics|Thundercracker]] and ''[[Universe (2008 franchise)|Universe]]'' [[Acid Storm]]. The toy was also retooled to create ''Classics'' and ''Henkei'' [[Ramjet (G1)#Classics|Ramjet]], and ''Timelines'' and ''[[Henkei!_Henkei!_(toyline)#Gentei! Gentei!|Gentei]]'' [[Thrust (G1)#Classics|Thrust]] and [[Thrust (G1)#Classics|Dirge]].

[[Image:Hasbro Masterpiece Starscream toy.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Wait, you say the ''Hasbro'' version is the slavishly 'toon-accurate one? Your credibility is on shaky ground, Wiki.]]
* '''Masterpiece Starscream''' (2007, 2008)
**''Accessories:'' 2 null rays, 2 missile racks, Doctor Arkeville pilot figurine, gun clip, display stand

: A [[Walmart]] exclusive, Hasbro's ''Masterpiece'' Starscream is an ''extensive'' redeco of the previous year's Takara's figure, recolored to resemble the character's animation model, down to the orange canopy and the silver nosecone (as opposed to the original toy's blue). In an effort to bring out detail in the sculpt, he has also been given an extensive paint wash to bring out his panel lines. His colors were not the only thing changed, however; the tips of his vertical stabilizers were shortened and rounded, and the plastics used overall have greater resilience to impact and damage than the fragile Japanese release.

:Starscream includes the same accessories from the Takara version of the toy, including a two-piece display stand, null rays, sidewinder missiles, a small figurine of Doctor Arkeville (which now has the correct skin color), and a clip to hold 20th Anniversary Optimus Prime's Megatron gun while in jet mode. Starscream was finally given the correct tech spec stats he was originally supposed to have back in 1984 for this release, which had been mistakenly given to Skywarp instead.

:Takara got in on the act the following year when they released Hasbro's version of Masterpiece Starscream, adding a Japanese sticker to the Hasbro ''Classics'' packaging. This version of the toy was not without a few changes: the original mold for the tail fins was used, an extra Decepticon symbol was added to Starscream's nosecone (which was present on his original toy, but not his animation model), and his black "scorch mark" paint applications were dialled back, and those that remained were switched to a lighter grey.

**''Accessories:'' Display stand

:Perversely enough, ''Titanium'' Starscream is actually a redeco of ''Titanium'' [[Thundercracker (G1)#Titanium Series|Thundercracker]], instead of the other way around. Based on the Seekers' [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertronian]] forms as seen in the [[Dreamwave Productions|Dreamwave]] comic book "[[The War Within]]", this version of Starscream tranforms into Cybertronian "tetra-jet", as designed by [[Don Figueroa]]. As a ''Titanium'' figure, Starscream is made in large part from die-cast metal, and comes with the generic display stand shared by all of the 6" "Cybertron Heroes", with a unique removable nameplate.

: This mold was redecoed into ''Titainium'' versions of [[Sunstorm (G1)#Titanium|Sunstorm]] and [[Skywarp (G1)#Titanium|Skywarp]].

: Available only as a mail-away exclusive offered through ''[[Transformers Generations 2009]]'' Vol 2 that was released in November 2009, this redeco of Starscream is the second in the character's history to pay homage to his time as a ghost in the third season of the Generation 1 cartoon by casting him almost entirely in traslucent colored plastic. Parts of the figure made in softer plastic, like his thighs, remain opaque.

: Starscream Ghost Version uses the altered version of the ''Classics'' Starscream mold that originated with Classics [[Skywarp (G1)|Skywarp]] and was last seen with [[Acid Storm|Acid Storm]] (down to the 2006 copyright date stamped on it), rather than the modified version first used on ''Universe'' Starscream and the iterations that followed ([[#Universe (2008)|see below]]).

:The second ''Universe'' Starscream toy is a redeco of ''Classics'' Starscream, with details and a darker color scheme inspired by Starscream's original Generation 1 toy. Several minor changes were made to the mold for this release: his launcher pegs were widened, and the peg-holes for them on his shoulders and wings were modified in order to accomodate them, while his air intakes were further modified (on top of the changes made to the mold for ''Classics'' Skywarp) so that the bottom-most rectangle goes completely across the air intake's surface rather than just the center. This modified version of the mold was used for ''Henkei'' [[Skywarp (G1)|Skywarp]] and [[Thundercracker (G1)|Thundercracker]].

*'''Starscream'''

: The ''[[Attacktix]]'' Starscream game piece was to be a small figure depicting on his robot mode. A missile-type piece, he would have featured an oversized null-ray missile launcher on his right arm. Starscream would have been a Captain-class piece worth 30 points.

: Hasbro displayed Starscream at a few conventions, but he was ultimately canceled alongside the rest of the ''Attacktix'' line.
