75.181.69.137: /* Starscream's Cockpit */ new section

Not being very familiar with Gundam, I tried to find images of the fighter that [[User:66.114.66.77]] has added. What I found was [http://www.mahq.net/Mecha/gundam/0083/lineart/rx-78gp03s-corefighter2-sp.jpg this], which doesn't have swept-forward wings at all. What am I missing? --[[User:Steve-o|Steve-o]] 15:11, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

How is he a fucking Su-47 Berkut? What does he look like? Where is his fucking vehicle mode photo?
:Again, the toy isn't out yet. We've seen some at Comic Con, but that one was painted up as Thundercracker, and was a hand-painted proto to my knowledge. We can't really put much up until there's more official stuff.--[[User:Rosicrucian|Rosicrucian]] 00:55, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
:: No, it was painted as Starscream. --[[User:FortMax|FortMax]] 01:25, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
:::Starscream is dark blue now?--[[User:Rosicrucian|Rosicrucian]] 02:07, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
::::He certainly is in the clips we've seen... --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 02:55, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
:::::Weird.--[[User:Rosicrucian|Rosicrucian]] 02:57, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
::::::Starscream is not so blue in actual screen grabs from the animation here: http://derrickjwyatt.blogspot.com/2007/07/transformers-animated-at-comic-con-2007.html --[[User:Swindle|Swindle]] 03:12, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
:::::::[http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?act=attach&type=post&id=13435 If you say so!] --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 13:31, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
::::::::Considering the quality of the screen grab on Swindle's link is better than on yours, I'd tend to agree with him more. --[[User:Detour|Detour]] 13:54, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
:::::::::Eyedropping that one ALSO gives you blue. Starscream is also blue in [[Eric_Siebenaler]]'s Animated art for the next issue of the Collector's Club magazine, as seen in a recent upload here. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 15:02, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
::::::::::Re: Starscream being blue now: Why not? He's already been black, dark grey, copper green, tan, and black and purple.
:::::::::::If you look at it, you can see that all the decepticons has that basic purple color on them, so they look more like a whole military-unit raither then a bunch of rapair-bots. -[[User:Hepathos|Hepathos]] 16:11, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

His toy next year once it comes out or something will be mighty expensive. Hey I saw his jet mode and it looks like a Cybertronian Jet based off a Su-47 Berkut.([[User:Anti-Spammer|Anti-Spammer]] 20:15, 31 October 2007 (UTC))
:His toy is a Voyager-class figure. As such, you're looking at around the $20 range, just like all the other Voyagers. It'll still be less expensive than the Ultra/Leader/Supreme toys, if any.--[[User:Rosicrucian|Rosicrucian]] 20:19, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

Geez, that picture of him makes him look twice as conniving and backstabbing than he ever was in G1.

== I have an image of his toy ==

Here it is. I need help with the caption, though. Any ideas? [[User:Florky Man|Mr. Florky]] 14:53, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[[Image:Starscream_toy.jpg|right|thumb|200px|The not-so-Crimson Chin?]]
:Lotta watermarks on that. Got one without? [[User:JW|JW]] 14:54, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

And a watermark is.....? [[User:Florky Man|Mr. Florky]] 15:09, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
:Those words superimposed on the image. In any case, we cannot use this image on the wiki, as the toy pictured there was ''stolen''. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 15:20, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

::Stolen?!? I had no idea. So sorry. Can you fill me in on the details? [[User:Florky Man|Mr. Florky]] 15:23, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
:::That is a test shot of a toy made by the factories to test the toy for painting and safety, or are just pre-production versions. They were likely swiped as they are usually destroyed afterwards. Hasbro and TakaraTomy do not like these being leaked and distributed around because poor posing/incorrect transformation in these sorts of photos or incomplete colours/paint may impact negatively on the perception of the final retail toy. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 15:30, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Okay. Got it. Again, really sorry. [[User:Florky Man|Mr. Florky]] 15:37, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

== Quote? ==

How come the dramatic "Do not try to deceive a Decepticon" quote isn't used. That sounds really cool. [[User:Inferno'sQueen|Inferno'sQueen]] 15:07, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
:I personally think the "solemn face" quote better captures Starscream's personality.
:Also, the ''very first thing'' you did upon getting an account here was to change that quote. We prefer that new users make more substantive contributions before tweaking the frippery. [[User:JW|JW]] 15:19, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

::Hmm... I guess the "solemn face" ''is'' more Starscream-ish. However, I have also uploaded a screencap for [[Roll Out (online game)]] and fixed a grammar mistake on this talk page. [[User:Inferno'sQueen|Inferno'sQueen]] 15:23, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
:::We appreciate your efforts, and we look forward to your future contributions.
:::However, on Talk pages, I'd strongly recommend against editing other people's comments. Fixing grammar mistakes in articles is wonderful, but you shouldn't edit other people's Talk page comments, unless there is some ''serious'', page-breaking problem in them. In this particular case, your edit was harmless, but I wouldn't do it again. [[User:JW|JW]] 15:35, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

And then Starscream was undead.

Thanks for the tip. ; ) [[User:Inferno'sQueen|Inferno'sQueen]] 15:40, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

== A reminder to editors: Spoilers Warnings Please! ==

Earlier, somebody put up spoilers for Mission Accomplished without any sort of header or warning. I've added the warning now. Just a reminder to editors to put warnings on new episodes. I'm pretty sure that the newest US episode is the rule, right? --[[User:Netbug009|Netbug009]] 05:25, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
:That is correct. Spoiler tags for the newest US episode, and no spoilers in the intro paragraph whatsoever.--[[User:Rosicrucian|Rosicrucian]][[User Talk:Rosicrucian|<sup>Talk</sup>]] 05:37, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
:::My bad!

== Toy ==

Does anyone know if a starscream toy will be released in show accurate colors?

== Starscream's Cockpit ==

Anyone else think Starscream's cockpit looks vaguely like Spongebob's tie? --[[Special:Contributions/75.181.69.137|75.181.69.137]] 23:29, 27 May 2008 (UTC)<div id="wikia-credits"><br /><br /><small>From [http://transformers.wikia.com Teletraan I: The Transformers Wiki], a [http://www.wikia.com Wikia] wiki.</small></div>

75.181.69.137: He's dead.

Sorry is my question seems silly, but I'm new to this whole Wiki thing.
I recently purchased a Jazz movie toy from Target. My question is: Would it be legal/ethical to post the toy's bio text in the otherwise lacking article section? Further, would it be permitted to expound a bit on the toy's features? [[User:SilentSooYun|SilentSooYun]]
:Legal? Well, yeah. Ethical? Odd question. But either way, that's not something we do here. We have a pretty firm policy against cut-and-paste information from other sources, be it official bios or even wikipedia. Sum up the character in your own words. --[[User:M Sipher|M Sipher]] 14:36, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
::I think he should wait until the street date, for the reasons stated under "Unofficial releases" on the [[Help:Coming_soon|Policy]] page. --[[User:Sntint|Sntint]] 17:13, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
:::[http://www.shortpacked.com/comics/20070426adrenaline.png Fuck 'Street date' and the horse it rode in on.] -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 18:01, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
::::Ignoring its writer being an admin, I don't think off-site webcomics determine site policy. But what does everybody else say? --[[User:Sntint|Sntint]] 18:14, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
::: I understand and concede posting the bio, and I agree it would be best to wait for a more official ''movie'' source for more Jazz info. But would it still be acceptable to update the toy info? This ''is'' the actual toy, after all. [[User:SilentSooYun|SilentSooYun]] 18:27, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
::::That's probably safe. Hasbro's officially released at least pics of the toy (which are frequently the basis for toy write-ups,) go ahead. -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 18:30, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
We don't just post verbatim transcripts, so... no. You can use it to write a proper bio for him though. -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 14:34, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

The very last trivia... it's not accurate. There is a close up of his face after Megatron blasts him with his canon. It's barely 2 sec. long, but it's there. [[User:Kyouraku-taichou|Kyouraku-taichou]] 23:08, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Isaac Sumdac (Animated)

2008-01-02T20:11:47Z

75.181.69.137: Dr. Quack

Should we add a voice actor credit for Tom Kenny to this guy, since David Kaye said at his first panel that he's Sumdac? -[[User:Rotty|Rotty]] 19:45, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
::Any reason his name is "Cadmus" backwards? Some kind of DC nod or something?--[[User:MCRG|MCRG]] 03:00, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

::: More likely I would say it's a reference to the Greek mythological Cadmus (from which DC took the name). He was a king who sowed the teath of a dragon sacred to Ares, they grew into powerful and warlike fighting "men" (sometimes depicted as skeletons) which he feared so much he set them to fight each other until almost all were destroyed. Seeing how Isaac is a "king" of future Detroit and creates artificial men (robots) (perhaps from the "teeth" ie parts of Decepticon tech? ) that's likely where they're going with it I'd guess. Maybe Sumdac robots are something the Decepticons want to use as a new army to take over Earth?--[[User:ZacWilliam|ZacWilliam]] 10:40, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

As far as the name is concerned, I also think that Sumdac's first name "Isaac" is more than likely a nod to Isaac Asmiov, known as the Grand Master of Science Fiction who wrote quite a bit on robots (he was actually the first to even USE the word robotics). --[[User:72.150.81.76|72.150.81.76]] 17:13, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

[[Image:Soundw_anim.JPG|right|thumb|180px|"RUMBLE: EJECT. OPERATION: PIERCE THE HEAVENS."]]
'''Soundwave''' has a [[Laserbeak (Animated)|pet bird]] that turns into a guitar. He's ''that'' awesome.

==Fiction==

===Transformers Animated cartoon===
:''Voice actor: [[Jeff Bennett]] (US), ??? (Japan)''

Soundwave probably will have guitar-solos. ROCK ON!

Also, he will sport similar glasses to [[Prowl_(Animated)|Prowl]] and [[wikipedia:Gurren Lagann|Gurren-Lagann]]. SPIN ON!

:''Megatron is a Decepticon in the [[Transformers Animated]] [[continuity family]].''
{{coming soon}}
[[Image:Megatronanimated.jpg|300px|thumb|An insult to G1, we swear!]]

Secure in both ranged and melee combat, '''Megatron''' wields both a huge kick-ass arm cannon and a katana.

==Fiction==

===Transformers Animated cartoon===
:''Voice actor: [[Corey Burton]] (US), ? (Japan)''

[[Image:TFA_Megatron_Starscream.jpg|left|thumb|Ominous silhouettes make anything look cool.]]

Megatron will not be the most active leader, but will apparently be directing a lot of what the evil fleshies do. He wants the Allspark, and in an early encounter with the Autobot crew manages to manhandle [[Optimus Prime (Animated)|Optimus Prime]] and toss our poor heroes about like rag dolls. Yes, even [[Bulkhead (Animated)|Bulkhead]].

Until Prowl cuts his arm off.

*'''Megatron''' (2008)
: Transforms into an alien VTOL jet that looks significantly more jet-like than his [[Megatron (Movie)|Movie counterpart]], despite the fact he seems to have stolen Movie Megatron's head. His cannon is indeed HUGE, but sadly, he doesn't appear to come with his katana.
*'''Megatron''' (2008)

: Megatron's "Earth" body bears a significant resemblance to ''Generation 1'' [[Megatron (G1)#Battlestars:_Return_of_Convoy_.28Japan-only.29|Super Megatron]] from the ''Battlestars'' storyline.
