==Megatron/Galvatron==

Regarding Megatron's marker... Were any of the Decepticons besides Cyclonus and Scourge even aware that Galvatron and Megatron were one and the same? - [[User:Dark T Zeratul|Dark T Zeratul]] 02:24, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

: Some damn episode had like, Astrotrain mutter "well, they're the same guy" or something, so yeah, I think it's common knowledge to 'em. --[[User:M Sipher|M Sipher]] 02:28, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

The episode you speak of is "Five Faces of Darkness part 1"...just to clarify. Cyclonus seems to regard Galvatron as a seperate person from Megatron, though, as in that conversation Cyclonus says something like "You mean GALVATRON would blah blah" to which Astrotrain replies "Well they'r ethe same fucking guy!" --[[User:DrSpengler|DrSpengler]] 03:02, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

==Starscream's tootsies==

Regarding Starscream's marker being a pair of legs, I think it was intentional, at least by the animators. When Octane reaches over to touch the marker he moves one of the legs like it was seperate and not connected to a torso (and no torso is ever seen and there are multiple shots of the two legs). --[[User:DrSpengler|DrSpengler]] 03:04, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

:Didn't the original script for TF:TM have Starscream leaving behind his "boots" when Galvy destroys him? I've thought that maybe that was somehow connected to the way his marker is drawn. --[[User:KilMichaelMcC|KilMichaelMcC]] 03:11, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

It's not Bloodron that Octane has his ominous reaction to- it looks like Bloodron is one-to-the-left of the ominious one.<br/>
This is the scary one.

Also, I move this article be moved to 'Decepticon Tomb' because it's not called a crypt anywhere, but one of the sweeps does comment it's as silent as a tomb. It's still not a proper name- but it's CLOSER. -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 01:57, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

Could the Decepticons have built the marker for Megatron during the 4 million years he was "missing"? But then the presence of marks for Thundercracker and Starscream might indicate either a recent construction, or all the 1984 Decepticons were considered dead by Shockwave after they and the Autobots went missing 4 million years ago. ~Ithekro<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>

Should this page be moved to have (BW) without the N? --[[User:KilMichaelMcC|KilMichaelMcC]] 03:47, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

: I suppose if that's how we're hangling all BW* series... --[[User:M Sipher|M Sipher]] 03:51, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

An Inpronouncable name? Sounds like Unicron was buying minions from Cthulhu at the time of Neo.

The Blentrons have a definate Lovecraftian influence; a cult of freakish monsters that can bend the fabric of reality, determined to revive a primordial God. One of the reasons why I loved those guys. --[[User:DrSpengler|DrSpengler]] 19:18, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

I have to ask, where can I get my hands on BW II and Neo cartoons? Can you buy it, or would I have to DL it? I'm having to get Region one DVDs for BW 1 since the English DVDs START at the end of Season 2(I live in the UK). It doesn't make a lot of sense. For some reason, I'm loving Transformers Animation more than ever recently. Has it even been translated (it sounds like they are Japanese Language) into English, or does all this info come from people who have learn Japanese?

*There have been some fandubs of Beast Wars II and Neo, but they're just getting started. You can download them at the usual places, but I don't know much about that so I can't really help you, there. I got mine in raw Japanese on bootleg VHS tapes many years.
To be honest, Beast Wars II is as awful as it gets and watching it is a real chore. Beast Wars Neo is a slight improvement but doesn't get really good until the Unicron Saga, and that's at the very end of the series. --[[User:DrSpengler|DrSpengler]] 00:44, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

I do support having humor in articles, but... is calling this character by a different retarded name every time actually funny? I think I'd prefer it just stick with Rartorarta, since that's the article name. --[[User:Steve-o|Steve-o]] 19:33, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

I thought it was funny, at least in so much as an expression of the authors disdain for the characters incomprehsible name. --[[User:UndeadScottsman|UndeadScottsman]] 19:38, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, I was thinking about that, too. Perhaps we should just leave the goofy names in the "(also spelled...)" and leave the actual information within the article alone. --[[User:DrSpengler|DrSpengler]] 20:17, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
:I disagree. I think the new-name-every-time is both funny and a good reflection on the retardedness of the original name. He's the Lump Beefbroth, Fridge Hardmeat, Buck Plankchest, Blast Hardcheese of TF-dom. --[[User:M Sipher|M Sipher]] 23:25, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

::I... have no idea what you are talking about. But regardless, maybe the problem is that I don't see what makes this name so ire-inspiring. It sounds just like any other nonsense name to me. It also bothers me that a lot of the false names in the article sound so little like the actual name. It all comes across, to me at least, as spiteful instead of being in good fun. --[[User:Steve-o|Steve-o]] 00:29, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

:::I don't think it's particularly funny, myself, but I can tell you the reason I have more ire for Rartorarta than almost anyone else is that it's impossible to tell what his name is supposed to be, which is frustrating. -[[User:LV|LV]] 00:35, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

::::It's a terrible fucking name. It makes no sense in Japanese, and even less sense in English. It deserves to be made fun of. Then again, I wrote the original article, so yeah, it's probably a leeetle spiteful. But fuck it, it's funny. [[User:Hooper X|-hx]] 01:09, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Monstructor (G1)

2007-01-24T00:36:57Z

75.30.185.197:

''Monstructor is a [[Decepticon]] in the [[Generation 1]] continuity''
[[Image:Monstructorg1.jpg|thumb|right|300px|Your only hope is to be eaten first.]]

"Ph’nglui mglw’nafh '''Monstructor''' Vos wgah’nagl fthagn."

Beneath the gibbous moons of Cybertron, in the great dark spaces of the sunless void, far beyond the the realms of man‘s childish reachings, does the great dread Monstructor have his origin. A being that seems instinct with some fearful and unnatural malignancy, its form like a robot and a deep great shadow at once, his very presence is said to drain light and life from the world around him, feeding his ancient hunger. A palatable cloak of dread follows his movements, and the very sight of his summoning and formation has driven sane beings beyond the bounds of madness. All living things, mechanical or organic, decay and die at his mearest touch.

Monstructor is the channel for an evil beyond the darkest Decepticon imagination, and far beyond the puerile concerns of the insignificant beings who make up his composite form. He longs for the day, foretold in darkness, when he shall be split asunder no longer, and will rise one final time, free to travel the stars, from world to world, extinguishing all life sparks, ravening for delight.

Monstructor is the combined form of six [[Pretender Monster]]s:

*[[Icepick]] (team leader)
*[[Birdbrain]]
*[[Bristleback]]
*[[Scowl]]
*[[Slog]]
*[[Wildfly]]

== Fiction ==

== Toys ==
*'''Monstructor''' (1989)
[[Image:G1Monstructor_toy.jpg|right|thumb|150px|Pretend that you fear me. Then remember that is isn't pretend.]]

: Monstructor is formed by combining all six Pretender Monsters. Much like the earlier Transformer combiner teams, he requires the attachment of seperate accessories, including his head, waist, fists and feet, complete his robot mode. As such, his articulation is limited to his shoulders moving up and down.

: Monstructor was the final Generation 1 combiner released by [[Hasbro]].

: In Japan, Monstructor was repainted and the Pretender Monsters given new dinosaur-based Pretender shells. They were sold as [[Dinoking]] and the [[Dinoforce]], respectively.

==Trivia==
* Monstructor is one of the few ''Generation 1'' toys that has no boxart. However, [[Dinoking]] did.

Ramjet (G1)

2007-01-23T04:05:22Z

75.30.185.197:

{{disambig3|Ramjet}}

:''Ramjet is a [[Decepticon]] in the [[Generation 1]] continuity family.''

[[Image:RamjetG1.jpg|right|250px|thumb|I'm fulla piss n' vinegar! And before it was just vinegar.]]

What can really be said about someone whose only idea of strategy is to smash into things with his head? In '''Ramjet's''' defense he's specifically built to survive such midair collisions and his prey most definitely is not. The strategy can be frighteningly effective, since no one expects a fighter jet to ram them. Ramjet has a tendency to regard the sky as belonging only to him, and will frequently ram even neutral or friendly targets. Though he is built to take such hits frequent collisions and crashes can still take their toll on his internal mechanisms.

==Fiction==
===Animated continuity===
:''Voice actor:'' ? (US), [[Toshiro Ishii]] (Japan)

===Marvel Comics continuity===
Ramjet was among the Decepticons killed in the [[Swarm]]'s final attack on [[Autobase:Earth]]. {{storylink|A Rage in Heaven!}}

===Dreamwave continuity===

==Toys==
===Generation 1===
* '''Ramjet''' (1985, 1986, 2001)
: ''Japanese ID number:'' '''D-56'''

: The original Ramjet toy was a retool of the Diaclone "Jet Robo Acrobat-Type" F-15 Eagle that was used for Starscream, [[Thundercracker (G1)|Thundercracker]] and [[Skywarp (G1)|Skywarp]], with new wings, new bombs and the removable or projectile launchers. He is otherwise identical to the other Decepticon jets aside from colour.

: In robot mode his official instructions has the user pulling down his nose cone to complete his head transformation, like Starscream. However, Ramjet, as well as Thrust and Dirge's television incarnations depict them as having their heads untransformed, leaving a distinctive 'conehead' shape to their appearance. This has lead many owners to do the same thing, to differentiate the three later Decepticon jets from the three earlier ones.

===Generation 2===
* '''Ramjet''' (1993, 1994)
[[Image:G2_Ramjet_toy.jpg|right|thumb|155px|90's fashion victim.]]

: For the ''[[Generation 2]]'' line, Ramjet was redecoed with the purple replacing white, black replacing burgundy and light blue replacing the original black. He also features new firing missile launchers and a sound effects box which is mounted above his engines. These parts were also used on the ''Generation 2'' release of Starscream.

===Classics===
* '''Ramjet''' (Deluxe, 2007)
[[Image:Classics_Ramjet_toy.jpg|left|thumb|200px|Frack!]]

: ''[[Classics_(2006)|Classics]]'' Ramjet transforms into a modified fighter jet based off the hull of an F-15 Eagle. Like his original Generation 1 toy, he is a retool of Starscream, with a new nose cone/head, new wings and new projectiles for his missile launchers. Unlike Starscream, his shoulder movement is unimpeded due to a lack of wings behind his shoulders.

:As with most ''Classics toys'', he features a heat-sensitive [[Rubsign|rubsign]].

{{-}}

==Merchandise==
===Super Collection Figure===
* '''Ramjet''' (2003)
[[Image:SCFRamjet.jpg|right|thumb|111px]]

: During Act 6 of Takara's ''Super Collection Figure'' line, Ramjet was released, a limited articulation PVC figurine not actually based upon his cartoon model, as he is a retool of Starscream with new wings and a new head. He also came with one of the parts to for a Build-a-Figure PVC figurine of [[Grand Maximus]].

Starscream (G1)

2007-01-15T18:26:36Z

75.30.185.197:

{{Template:Disambig3|Starscream}}

:''Starscream is a [[Decepticon]] in the [[Generation 1]] continuity family.''
[[Image:Starscreamg1.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Let me guess. You're gonna attempt to overthrow Megatron, fail, cry, then repeat the cycle.]]

'''Starscream''' is the treacherous Decepticon Air Commander. He's famous not only for his incredible skill, but also for his limitless (and troublesome) ambition. Starscream believes that he is more suited for command than Decepticon Leader [[Megatron_(G1)|Megatron]]. Thankfully for Megatron, Starscream's mutinous, powergrabbing plots are almost always transparent, and he can never muster up enough patience to complete a grandoise powerplay. Despite his constant failures, Starscream believes it is only a matter of time before he prevails -- his destiny is inevitable.

Unlike most Transformers, he has a mutant, indestructable [[Spark]]. His lifeforce cannot be destroyed and can persist even without a body to contain it.

''Italian name:'' '''Astrum'''<br>

==Fiction==
===Marvel Comics continuity===
[[Image:Starscream uscomics2.png|thumb|left|With Megatron's guidance, Starscream may one day become a valuable team member.]]

Starscream helped invade the [[Ark]], got deactivated. Woke up, questioned Megatron, got deactivated. Fought Omega Supreme, got deactivated. Was mysteriously active when meeting [[Cobra]]. Rescued by [[Ratbat]]'s forces on the Moon, Starscream set about a chain of systematic betrayals that temporarily gained him almost limitless power thanks to the [[Underbase]], but ultimately resulted in both Ratbat's death and his own (not to mention about 75% of the entire G1 cast up to that point).

[[Image:ZombieScream1.jpg|right|200px|thumb|Braaaiiiinnnssss!]]

''[[Dreadwind (G1)|Dreadwind]] and [[Darkwing]] were sent by Megatron to reclaim Starscream's charred corpse on planet Earth. Starscream's remains were possessed by the essence of the Underbase and went on a psychotic rampage, nearly killing [[Dr. Susan Hoffman]] and her [[Dr. Susan Hoffman#Dr. Hoffman's Assistants|Assistants]]. The Underbase eventually realised it was acting insane and regained control, but as soon as it did, Dreadwing and Darkwind siphoned all the power out of it and Starscream's corpse returned to being an inanimate pile of scrap which the pair quickly collected.''

Starscream's remains were delivered to Megatron, who kidnapped [[Ratchet (G1)|Ratchet]] to rebuild Starscream with a powerful [[Pretender]] shell. Megatron ordered Ratchet to wipe Starscream's mind, so Starscream would wreak havoc on Earth among the Decepticons (led by [[Scorponok (G1)]]) and Optimus Prime. Ratchet, however, let his true mind to be only supressed. One good blast caused enough pain to revive the real Starscream. Completely outmatched, he surrendered and begged Scorponok for forgiveness.

''Briefly after becoming a Pretender, Starscream began to wallow in self-pity, believing that all the other Decepticons considered him a joke for his many failed take-over attempts and defeats. His self-esteem crumbled every time the other Decepticons refused to speak to him or spoke about him behind his back. In reality, the other Decepticons were terribly frightened of Starscream (thanks to that whole Underbase thing) and were avoiding him so they wouldn't be killed. Starscream sulked about it for a while until he defeated and captured a few Autobots and his confidence began to return. ''

Starscream fled [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] with [[Shockwave (G1)|Shockwave]] in the [[Ark]] after [[Unicron]]'s assault. Shockwave and Starscream found Megatron and Ratchet awakening from the [[Nucleon]], both very confused and addled due to their mind-link. Ratchet collected enough sanity to direct one of Starscream's null-rays into the Nucleon, causing enough of a chain reaction to send the Ark into a crash-landing on Earth. Apparently, Starscream and co survived.

Later, Starscream discovered firsthand the dangers of stealing the Matrix. While he held it, the Matrix rewrote his programming to better suit its own tastes. As a result, Starscream emerged a snow-white boy scout with no mounted weapons that would never hurt a fly and went out of his way to help old ladies across the street. (More or less.)

[[Image:Starscream uscomics.png|thumb|left|200px|"I am only saving you so that I may punish you later."]]
He fervently hopes the effect is only temporary.

===Animated continuity===
'''Voice Actor:''' [[Chris Latta]] (US), [[Hirotaka Suzuoki]] (Japan)

Starscream was the Decepticons' second-in-command. He was rash, boastful, cowardly, and even whiney. His rash and spiteful actions led to the resurrection of the Autobots on Earth, when a blast intended to trap the Autobots there forever caused Optimus Prime to fall into the life giving rays of Teletraan-I, who soon had all his fellow autobots ready for action again. Starscream would always demand action rather than waste time with planning, often calling Megatron a coward or taking action himself without waiting for the order. Needless to say, this got him nearly killed by Megatron on more than one occasion.

Starscream's status probably came from the fact he had command over the other [[Seeker|Jet Fighter Decepticons]], which formed pretty much 50% of the entire Decepticon force at the time of the first and second seasons. Megatron, very desperate for troops (Especially ones who were so predictible), kept Starscream around.

Starscream's ambition was also great, and often sought to take command away from Megatron. One such attempt was to challenge him to a duel, and shoot him in the back when he turned away laughing. His "Victory" here was short lived, as Megatron was just stunned, shot Starscream, and banished him from his forces. This led Starscream to "create" the [[Combaticon]]s, from a bunch of wrecked army vehicles he found on the island he was deserted on, and some Decepticon "Brains" he stole from the Decepticon Prison. Megatron let him, and his newly formed army, back into the Decepticons soon afterwards, despite the fact they were all Decepticon outcasts and criminals.

Starscream's thirst for leadership led to his death in ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'', when, during the Decepticon's dramatic seige on [[Autobot City]], Megatron would fight his final battle with Optimus Prime. By the end of it, the Decepticon leader was battered beyond repair, left on the verge of stasis lock. Starscream, who if nothing else can see an opportunity in every situation, took advantage of this moment of weakness to rally the healthy Decepticons that remained after the battle, ejecting the "dead weight" of his wounded former comrades into space. Starscream, with transparent satisfaction, threw Megatron out personally, before closing the door on that part of Transformers history and beginning an inter-Decepticon brawl that would eventually place him at the head of the ranks.

Starscream couldn't have known, of course, that Megatron would be found and reshaped by the godlike [[Unicron]] before his Spark faded completely. Reborn as [[Galvatron (G1)|Galvatron]], he made it his first order of business to take back what Starscream had taken, interrupting the pompous and overblown coronation Starscream had set up for himself and killing him with a single, terrible blast, likely setting a record for the shortest reign in Decepticon history.[[Image:SSBQ.jpg||right|320px|thumb|Starscream had little accident a the Decepticon BBQ]]

This was not the end, however, as his ghost came back, with "cunning" schemes. First he possessed [[Cyclonus (G1)|Cyclonus]], and handed Galvatron over to [[Rodimus Prime]]. Rodmius didn't kill or even imprison Galvatron however, and he came back angered, and shot his second in command, not realising he had not been himself. Starscream had already found a new host in [[Scourge (G1)|Scourge]] by this time, whom he used in his next "master plan". This one involved making deals with Unicron, who requested Starscream help him find new body parts, in return for a new body for himself. Starscream followed his orders exactly, until his host ran off before his could connect Unicron's head to Cybertron as a new body. This is where Starscream showed his "true cunning", stating that if Unicron wanted him to connect him to his new Planet, he would have to give him his new body first. Unicron did so, repeating his request to finish connecting his head to his new body, however Starscream turned on him immediately, telling him mockingly to do it himself. At this point, the Autobots set off a load of explosives, unaware of these turn of events, that sent Starscream, in his new body, spinning out of control through space, past Galvatron and his crew (Galvatron took this chance to fire at what he thought was a ghost), and never to be seen again.

One last thing to note is Cyclonus's line after the last glimpse of Starscream: "Hey, since when have ghosts spun out of control through space?"

====Japanese manga====

[[Image:StarscreamGhost.jpg|right|200px|thumb|Starscream's Ghost being evicted by his landlord.]]

Between the events of "Starscream's Ghost" and "Ghost in the Machine" the 5th issue of the Transformers 2010 manga (simply called "The Transformer") takes place. In this story, Starscream's ghost teams up with the [[Quintesson|Quintessons]] who build him a powerful new body. The new body, equipped with attacks such as "Right Arm Destron Gun" and the "Revolver Laser", was created using a combination of Optimus Prime's and Megatron's designs. The result is [[Guiltar]].

[[Image:Guiltor-Gun.jpg|left|250px|thumb|Guiltor, preparing to complete the preparation for completion.]]

Guiltar joins the Decepticons and quickly becomes Galvatron's right-hand man (literally, in like, 5 seconds). Galvatron tricks Rodimus Prime into engaging him in a one-on-one battle and fake's defeat. When Rodimus least suspects it, Guiltar attacks and wrecks his shit. Galvatron compliments Guiltar on his power and loyalty, and instinctively, Guiltar beats the crap out of Galvatron and declares his ambition to take-over the Decepticons. Rodimus Prime and Galvatron call a truce and join forces to defeat Guiltar. They wreck him something fierce, destorying his body and forcing Starscream's ghost out. They then end the truce and go about their business.

===''Beast Wars''===
'''Voice Actor:''' [[Doug Parker]] (US), [[Kazuki Yao]] (Japan)

[[Image:Cap193.jpg|thumb|250px|EBENEEZER SCROOGE...!]]

Starscream's ghost travelled through time and space to the prehistoric earth of the [[Beast Wars]], where he possessed [[Waspinator (BW)|Waspinator]]'s body during an electrical storm. He ingratiated himself with [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]], claiming that he had been destroyed by [[Unicron]] while protecting [[Galvatron (G1)|Galvatron]]. After leading a successful raid on the [[Axalon (BW)|Axalon]], he was left in command of the captured [[Maximal]] ship, along with [[Blackarachnia (BW)|Blackarachnia]] and [[Scorponok (BW)|Scorponok]], the former of whom he took as his 'protege'. When the defeated Maximals surrendered to him, he took [[Dinobot (BW)|Dinobot]] and [[Optimus Primal (BW)|Optimus Primal]] hostage and ordered the remaining Maximals to attack the [[Darkside]] - Scorponok objected, but he was very forcefully overruled. Shortly after the attack began, the two captive Maximals broke out and drove the Predacons out of the Axalon. Starscream fled, pursued by Primal, and abandoned Blackarachnia to her fate. After a spirited chase, Primal cornered Starscream at an [[energon]] deposit, paralysing him. As he tried to bargain his way out of his predicament, his vengeful ex-partner Blackarachnia detonated the energon, blowing Waspinator to scrap and forcing Starscream's spark out of his body.

Adrift in space once more, Starscream's ghost screamed vengeance into the void...

===Dreamwave comics continuity===

===''Robot Masters''===
Voice actors: [[Kunihiro Kawamoto]] (Japan)

When [[Megatron (BW)|Beast Megatron]] travelled back in time to modern day [[Earth]] in search of [[solitarium]], he immediately recruited Starscream to his cause. Starscream went head to head with another time-displaced transformer, [[Star Saber (G1)|Star Saber]] only to find himself defeated once Optimus Prime arrived as back-up. Beast Megatron, arriving on [[Smokesniper]], saved Starscream from a crashing into the ground but quickly chucked him aside after lamenting over the Decepticon's worthlessless.

Later, Beast Megatron discovered a large deposit of solitarium beneath [[New York City]] and ordered the Decepticons to tear the city apart. Starscream, Smokesniper, [[Gigant Bomb]] and [[Wingstun]] did just that, blowing up buildings and razing a good portion of the Big Apple. Starscream was then shot out of the sky by another time-displaced Autobot, [[Reverse Convoy]]. Reverse Convoy quickly gained the trust of the other Autobots after being seen blasting Starscream. 10 seconds later, Reverse Convoy reveals himself as the original Megatron, now going by the name [[Megatron (G1)|Rebirth Megatron]]. Makes sense.

===IDW comics continuity===

Starscream is the leader of a Decepticon insurgent cell that has operated covertly on Earth for at least four years, working to destabilise Earth's governing organisations and create global anarchy. However, since the discovery of the mysterious, Energon-like substance, [[Ore-13]], Starscream has stepped outside standard procedure, establishing a second command bunker in [[Oregon]] above a richer seam of the ore than the one in [[Nebraska]] and ordering [[Blitzwing (G1)|Blitzwing]] and [[Skywarp (G1)|Skywarp]] to cover his tracks. Starscream intended to use Ore-13 to challenge [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]] for leadership of the Decepticons, but when the moment of truth finally arrived, the energy source proved insufficient to destroy the Decepticon leader, and Megatron blasted Starscream with his fusion cannon at point blank range, virtually obliterating him. It is unclear whether or not Starscream will recover, as Megatron told the other Decepticons, "See to the remains. If he lives, then I'll decide what to do with him."

===''Kiss Players'' continuity===
====Radio drama====
One night, the disembodied spirit of a Transformer possessed the body of the [[Earth Defense Command|E.D.C.]] [[Kiss Player]] [[Atari Hitotonari]]. Discovering that it could not transfer itself to the bodies of other Transformers with [[spark|souls]], it forced Atari to seek out the twisted [[Doctor Arkeville]], who built it a new body converted from a stolen fighter jet. Kissing it, Atari transferred the spirit into its new form. Starscream was reborn!

A couple of minutes later, Starscream's new body got blown up by [[Autrooper|Autroopers]] and his ghost flew back into space again.

''Note: This is so far the only fiction-based appearance of the Masterpiece Starscream toy.''

==Toys==
===Generation 1===
* '''Starscream''' (Decepticon Jet, 1984/1985/1986, 1991, 2001, 2003, 2004)
: ''Japanese ID number:'' '''D-22, TFC-09'''
[[Image:G1Starscream_toy.jpg|left|thumb|150px|The beginning of a long line of redecoes.]]

: Starscream's first toy was taken from the ''[[Diaclone]]'' line, transforming into an F-15 Eagle fighter jet. In this mode he is armed with two cluster bombs, essentially shortened projects made to resemble (somewhat) the drop tanks that a real F-15 might carry. There are numerous minor construction variations on this mold, common for most of the ''Diaclone''-based Transformers.

: To transform Starscream, one must essentially take most of his plane parts off and transform his body, then reattach his plane parts on again. In robot mode, the cluster bomb projectiles are replaced with long 'null rays''.

: For some reason, the stats on Starscream and Skywarp's tech specs were switched, which explains Starscream's low rank.

: The first reissiue of Starscream was practically identical to the original toy, and was released by [[Takara]] in Japan in 2001. An all-clear lucky draw was made for a contest with ''Transformers: Generations'', although due to the demise of the publisher, it's never been confirmed if this came out.

: Starscream was reissued in normal colors for Hasbro's Commemorative Reissue line in 2003. The release had remolded elongated missiles and launchers as to comply with current US toy safety laws.

: Starscream's Transformer Collection reissue from 2003 was redecoed into show-accurate colors, and came with retooled fists to hold a new miniature Megatron gun mode accessory. An [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] fist that could hold the gun was also included, as was a DVD.

: This mold is [[redeco]]ed and [[retool]]ed into [[Dirge (G1)|Dirge]], [[Ramjet (G1)|Ramjet]], [[Skywarp (G1)|Skywarp]], [[Sunstorm (G1)|Sunstorm]], [[Thrust (G1)|Thrust]] and [[Thundercracker (G1)|Thundercracker]].

* '''Starscream''' (Classic Pretender, 1989)
[[Image:PretenderStarscream_toy.jpg|right|thumb|150px|You can tell he's evil because he's spikey.]]

:Starscream was released as a Classic Pretender with a human shell. The inner robot was a simplified version of the original toy. The K-Mart [[exclusive]] "Legends" release had only the inner robot. The Legends figure was released with the other three Legends in a Japanese giftset the same year.

* '''Starscream''' (Action Master, 1990)
[[Image:ActionmasterStarscream_toy.jpg|left|thumb|150px|He loved the gray helmet so much, he used it again.]]

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

{{-}}

* '''Ghost Starscream''' (2001)
: ''Japanese ID number:'' '''D-22'''
[[Image:GhostStarscream_toy.jpg|right|thumb|150px|Wait a minute. Since when do ghosts have painted metal chests?]]

: Ghost Starscream was an [[e-Hobby]] [[exclusive]] release of the 2001 Starscream reissue, cast almost entirely in transluscent plastics, except for those parts made of die-cast metal.

* '''Black Starscream''' (2001)
: ''Japanese ID number:'' '''D-22'''
[[Image:G1BlackStarscream_toy.jpg|left|thumb|150px|Wait, who am I again?]]

: Black Starscream was also an e-Hobby exclusive release, with his colours based upon [[Machine Wars]] Starscream, though his colours have much darker shades of grey, lacks clear blue plastic and has gold as one of his primary colours.

{{-}}

===Generation 2===
* '''Starscream''' (Decepticon Jet, 1993)
[[Image:G2Starscream_toy.jpg|right|thumb|150px|With my camoflauged wings, I'll appear to be a fuselage flying through the sky!]]

:Starscream's ''Generation 2'' release was a [[retool]] of his original toy with new missiles, launchers, and a sound box. His colours are essentially a combination of G1 Ramjet, his own original colours, and a replacement of his dark blue plastic with light grey.

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

:''(A recolor of [[Smokescreen (G2)|Smokescreen]] was planned for 1995, but was never released. The deco was used for the [[Beast Wars II]] [[Starscream (BWII)|Starscream]] and [[BB]], with only the stickers being changed.)''

===Machine Wars===
* '''Starscream''' (Ultra, 1997)
[[Image:MWStarscream_Toy.jpg|left|thumb|150px|Ohh! Slice!]]

: Starscream's Machine Wars release was a recolor of the Predator [[Skyquake]] with fewer missiles, no hand-held projectile launcher, and most of the gimmicks removed. He transforms into a large bomber based vaguely upon an SR-71 Blackbird. He still retains his "carpet bombing" gimmick, a rolling drum that drops the his missiles from each wing.

{{-}}

===Smallest Transformers===
* '''Starscream''' (2003)
: ''Japanese ID number:'' '''GTF-03'''
[[Image:STFStarscream_toy.jpg|right|thumb|150px|I will rule all the redecos, Megatron!]]

: This version of Starscream was a very small-scale simplication of the original Starscream toy, retaining most of its functionality and accessories, except for his long null-rays.

:This mold was redecoed and retooled into Thundercracker, Skywarp and Thust.

===Robot Masters===
*'''Starscream''' (Deluxe, 2004)
:''Japanese ID number:'' '''RM-12'''
[[Image:RobotMastersStarscream_toy.jpg|left|thumb|150px|I feel correct. That can't be good.]]

: Starscream's ''[[Robot Masters]]'' toy is a reimagining of the original toy, designed to be closer to the animation model, with greater poseability and integrated parts that did not require detachment during transformation (with the exception of his null-ray blasters). After re-engineering the design to stay roughly in one piece during transformation, Takara then gave him chromed missile pods that attach to his chestplate. Although not his usual choice of weapon, these are show-accurate: Starscream used them once in the episode "Fire On The Mountain" to attack [[Trailbreaker]] and [[Brawn]].

{{-}}

*'''Starscream Limited Black Version''' (Deluxe, 2004)
[[Image:RMBlackStarscream.jpg|right|thumb|150px|Okay now I feel used. That's much better.]]

: Available only via mail-order from ''Figure King Magazine'', Black Starscream is a repaint of ''Robot Masters'' Starscream, swapping out his reds and blues for black, and some of his grey for black.

===Masterpiece===
* '''Starscream''' (2006)
: ''Japanese ID number:'' '''MP-03'''
[[Image:MasterpieceStarscream_toy.jpg|left|thumb|200px|And the fandom complained (and rejoiced)]]

: ''Masterpiece'' Starscream is a high-quality, superbly detailed collectable Transformer toy. He transforms into a mostly accurate F-15D Eagle, with weapons options ranging from a rack of Sidewinder missiles to his trademark null ray cannons. In robot mode he is a highly detailed, well-articulated, yet stylised version of his original robot mode. His chest turbines flip up to reveal a bank of missiles each, and his face can be rotated so as to display either a stern or a smirking face.

:He comes with a small figurine of [[Doctor Arkeville]], his partner-in-crime for several early episodes of Generation 1; a display stand that can be used in both fighter and jet modes; and an extensive sheet of sticker decals, including variously sized Decepticon symbols, squadron numbers and squadron markings, including one of [[Waspinator]]!

: ''Masterpiece'' Starscream was the second all-new sculpt in the ''Masterpiece'' series of toys, and was envisioned as the finest toy representation of the original Starscream ever created. To this end, famed japanese mecha designer (and former Diaclone toy designer) [[Shoji Kawamori]] was recruited to oversee the design and engineering of this toy. The first prototype design was essentially a much more complex version of the original toy, based upon his cartoon and recent comic appearances, with a much more accurate F-15 Eagle fighter mode. However, Kawamori felt the design could be improved, particularly the details and underside of the fighter mode, as he did not want what would have basically been a new version of the old toy.

: Based on Kawamori's suggestions, a new prototype design was made, with major structures located in his legs now moved up to his hips, with his transformation and design streamlined to create an even more realistic F-15 design. 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.

: On his control art, there are pictures of Starscream that have him wearing his Decepticon Crown of Leadership, as seen in the coronation scene of the original animated movie. On the toy itself, his head and shoulders have notches for parts to attach to, suggesting that Takara have reserved Starscream's coronation parts for a later release of this toy.

===Classics===
* '''Starscream''' (Deluxe, 2006)
[[Image:ClassicsStarscream_toy.jpg|right|thumb|200px|My fellow Decepticons. It is will a heavy heart that I must declare that you are all morons!]]

: ''Classics'' Starscream is a faithful reproduction of his original toy, but with modern standards of toy engineering, transformation, sculpting detail and articulation. He still transforms into an F-15 Eagle, but has the nose of an F-14 Tomcat fighter jet. Dissapointingly, his fighter mode has poor leading gear, consisting of bumbs on his feet and his chest turbine fans.

: In robot mode, Starscream is essentially a very detailed version of his cartoon robot mode, with many design elements that will later find its way into Masterpiece Starscream. He is armed with two (overly large) null-ray missile launchers, which are so large that they restrict his arm movement due to them bumping into his wings.

===Titanium Series===
* '''Starscream''' (Robot Masters, 2006)
[[Image:TitaniumRM_Starscream.jpg|left|thumb|100px|Wait, I have Megatron. Let's talk this over.]]

: Released in wave 2, the first ''[[Titanium]]'' Starscream is a small, non-transforming die-cast metal figurine, based upon his Generation 1 cartoon appearances. He is sculpted holding Megatron in gun mode in his left hand, and holding up is palm outward with his right, while using his jets to fly up. EXCITEMENT.

* '''War Within Starscream''' (Cybertron Heroes, 2007)
[[Image:TitaniumHeroesWWStarscream_toy.jpg|right|thumb|150px|Wait, how did I become the redeco here!]]

: War Within Starscream is a redeco of War Within Thundercracker. He transforms into a cybertronic 'tetrajet', as reimagined by [[Don Figueroa]]. As with all 6-inch Titanium Cybetron Heroes, he is constructed mostly of fully painted die-cast metal.

==Merchandise==
===Heroes of Cybertron===
:A series of non-transforming PVC figures released to [[Market 6]] stores in the early 2000s. Largely based on Japan's SCF line.

* '''Starscream''' (Regular)
: Repaint of the Japanese SCF Starscream figure. Non-transforming, true to the animation model. Distinctive from the Japanese release with its glossy paint and "light-up" eyes.

* '''Starscream''' (from the Convention Set)
: Above, but part of a six-pack of figures which also included Thundercracker, Skywarp, and three Clones.

* '''Starscream''' (with crown)
: Originally a chase figure in Japan, this remold of the regular figure includes a cape, newly molded limbs, and a head with the crown as seen in the movie.

Devastator (G1)

{{disambig3|Devastator}}

:''Devastator is a [[Decepticon]] [[combiner]] from the [[Generation 1]] continuity family.''

[[Image:DevastatorManga1.jpg|right|300px|thumb|He devastates things. Devastates them right in the mouth.]]

'''Devastator''' is an immensely powerful warrior, and in that sense the combination of the [[Constructicon]]s into a merged being is a huge success. Mentally, on the other hand, he's very much less than the sum of his parts. Devastator's primitive psyche is limited to only the thoughts and actions on which all his components can agree, which results in raging bouts of destructive fury. Given the sheer power Devastator brings to these rages, [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]] has no complaints.

Nominally he is composed of the six robots...

==Fiction==
===Animated continuity===
====Generation 1 cartoon====
:''Voice Actor:'' [[Arthur Burghardt]] (US), [[Seizō Katō]] (Japan)

The Constructicons did not initially have the power to merge into Devastator. That ability was given to them by Megatron after he warped their minds into servitude with the [[robo-smasher]].

Millions of years later, in 1984, Megatron had the Constructicons built on Earth to steal high-tech electronic components for his [[Power chip rectifier]] furnace, as well as tunelling under the [[Ark]] to destroy [[Teletraan I]]. Teletraan I, sensing the imminent danger, activated the [[Dinobot (G1)|Dinobots]]. The Dinobots responded and started pounding on the Constructicons, opening up a lava channel in the process. The battle not going in their favor, the Constructicons pulled out one last trick and combined into the super warrior, Devastator.

The returning Autobots saw the battle, but were unable to help (due to losing a tournament which prevented them from interfering with the Decepticons). Inside the Ark, Teletraan-I was able to show that Megatron had cheated and the Autobots rushed outside to help the Dinobots. Distracted by one of [[Hound (G1)|Hound]]’s holograms, Devastator was shot by Optimus Prime and fell apart into the lava. {{Storylink|Heavy Metal War}}.

Devastator was continuously called upon during battle for many years to come. Some of his adventures include scaling the Empire State Building like King Kong, helping [[Grapple (G1)|Grapple]] and [[Hoist (G1)|Hoist]] build their solar tower, being brainwashed by [[Wheeljack (G1)|Wheeljack]]'s [[dominator disk]]s into serving the Autobots and pummeling the Dinobots again during the battle of [[Autobot City]].

====''The Transformer'' manga====

===''Zone'' OVA and manga===
'''Voice Actor:''' [[Hirohiko Kakegawa]] (Japan)

[[Image:DevastatorZone1.jpg|right|150px|thumb|PHALLIC!]]

''(Devastator is referred to as one of the [[Nine Great Demon Generals]]. This terminology, coupled with the presence of the previously deceased [[Black Zarak]] in their ranks and [[Violen Jygar]]'s supernatural origins, could mean that Devastator died previously to Zone and was likewise brought back to life. However, this is unconfirmed, meaning that Violen Jygar may have simply recruited the still-living Devastator to be a General.)''

Devastator was selected by [[Violen Jygar]] as one of his 9 Decepticon Demon-Generals. Gifted with a new bitchin' drill-weapon and armor, Violen Jygar sent Devastator to the [[Earth]] to steal the [[Zodiac]] before the Autobots could get it. Devastator drilled deep within the planet, reaching the Zodiac's chamber, and went toe-to-toe with [[Dai Atlas]]. He managed to get the Zodiac first and pass it off to [[King Poseidon]]. Devastator had the upper hand in battle until Dai Atlas opened a vein of hot lava upon the Decepticon. Devastator was washed-away in the molten magma, apparantly killed by it.

Along the way, he demolished the World Trade Center. That terrorist scum.

===Marvel Comics continuity===

===Dreamwave comics continuity===

After Megatron freed the other Decepticons from [[Adam Rook]]'s control, he sent Devastator down the west coast of North America. Along the way, Devastator destroyed a US Navy submarine, before arriving at his destination, San Francisco.

Devastator helped destroy the city until he was initially stopped by [[Superion]], and finally put into stasis lock when [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] blew up his head.

==Toys==
===Generation 1===
*'''Devastator''' (Giftset, 1985)
: ''Japanese ID number:'' '''D-37'''
[[Image:G1devastator_toy.jpg|right|thumb|125px|I was here first, Scramble-boy!]]

: Normally, Devastator could only be assembled by buying all six individual Constructicons with the additional large-scale weapons components that were assigned to them. However, six-robot gift sets were made available in many markets, including the US, Japan, and several European countries.

: Devastor's forearms are also spring-loaded missile launchers, able to fire his fists as well as his drill attachments. He also comes armed with a large purple laser rifle.

: Unlike the later [[Scramble City]]-style combiners, Devastator's limbs cannot be rearranged into any other configuations.

*'''Devastator with Scorpulator''' (Action Master, 1990)

[[Image:ActionMaster_Devastor.gif|left|thumb|150px|Dinkystator]]

: A non-transforming action figure compatible with any other [[Action Master]] vehicle or accessory, Devastator's sculpt is a combination of the original animation model and several more toy-based elements. He came with his small animal partner [[Scorpulator]].
{{-}}

===Generation 2===
*'''Devastator''' (1993)
[[Image:G2Devastator_toy.jpg|right|thumb|100px|Yellow, but not mellow.]]

: During ''[[Generation 2]]'', the Constructicons were only available as individuals, never as a giftset. The team was released in two different colors, initially in yellow, then later in bright orange. All individual members are tampographed with the G2 Decepticon symbol and the words 'Decepticon'.

:Other than colour scheme and the lack of [[rubsign]]s, G2 Devastator is functionally identical to the original release.

===Classics===
*'''Constructicon Devastator''' (Multi-pack, 2007)
[[Image:Devastatorclassics.jpg|left|thumb|100px|And then there were five.]]

: For ''[[Classics (2006)|Classics]]'', Devastator is a [[redeco]] of the ''[[Energon (franchise)|Energon]]'' combiner [[Constructicon Maximus]]. He was available only in a full five-pack, [[exclusive]] to Wal-Mart stores.

: Since the original combiner contains only five robots, the Constructicon team here contains only [[Bonecrusher (G1)|Bonecrusher]], [[Hightower (Classics)|Hightower]] (who may or may not be related to [[Hook]] and/or [[Mixmaster]] as his bio seems to combine attributes of both), [[Long Haul (G1)|Long Haul]], [[Scavenger (G1)|Scavenger]] and [[Scrapper]]. Also, because of the combination method used, he can also use any of the ''Energon''-series limb-robots.

==Merchandise==
*'''Devastator''' (Bust, 2003)
[[Image:Devastatorbust.jpg|right|thumb|I BEND METAL BAR FOR FOOD.]]

:This bust of Devastor was released by Hard Hero, and was based on his G1 cartoon appearance.

*'''Devastator''' (Statue, 2006)
[[Image:Palisades_Devastator.jpg|left|thumb|130px|Brother, won't you spare a dime?]]

:This statue of Devastator was released by Palisades.

{{-}}

==Trivia==
* Though a yellow version of the Constructicons were released in the European market at the tail end of Generation 1, they did not come with any of the parts to form Devastator. In fact, [[Scavenger (G1)|Scavenger]] and [[Hook]] had the connector parts on their actual toys removed.

* It has been rumored that the orange ''Generation 2'' Constructions were a Kay-Bee Toys exclusive, but this is unconfirmed.
