: ''Darth Vader is a [[human]] in [[Star Wars]].''

[[Image:VaderVsPrime.jpg|right|250px|thumb|"Does Darth Vader have to choke a bitch?" is always a rhetorical question.]]
'''Darth Vader''' was once a man named '''Anakin Skywalker''' who converted to the dark side. He is possessed of great power, cunning, and speed. Once he called [[Obi-Wan Kenobi]] "master" although the exact nature of that relationship (could such a powerful being have once been a Jedi's slave?) and how it ended remain a mystery. He's been a member of the [[Jedi]] himself, and has been called "the most gifted pilot in the galaxy". He flies a variety of ships, at some point even an odd spherical "[[Death Star]]", all of which can transform into a humanoid robot designed in his own image. Despite all the imposing weapons at his disposal, he is a very powerful man, one of the most powerful masters of the [[Force]], in his own right, known to fight [[Transformer|Cybertronians]] ''on foot''.

He is presumably related to the similarly named [[Luke Skywalker]] in some way.

== Fiction ==
===''Star Wars Transformers''===
As a Jedi, Anakin Skywalker fought on the side of the [[Galactic Republic]] during the [[Clone Wars]]. With his unrivalled piloting skills, control of the [[Force]] and a variety of transforming [[Jedi Starfighter]]s to choose from, he cleared some of the most challenging missions available without breaking a sweat.<ref>''Star Wars Transformers'' Anakin Skywalker Jedi Starfighter package</ref> At some point, Anakin ended up on [[Teth]] and found the ''[[Twilight (SW)|Twilight]]'', a freighter ship which he modified into another transforming mech.<ref>''Crossovers'' Anakin Skywalker to the ''Twilight'' package</ref> Using a [[Y-wing]], he later freed a number of hostages captured by [[Cad Bane]] on [[Coruscant]], then did battle with the bounty hunter.<ref>''Crossovers'' Cad Bane to the ''Xanadu Blood'' package</ref>

Shortly after being converted from his previous beliefs to the [[Sith]] faction, Darth Vader is given the task of crushing all resistance to the [[Palpatine|Emperor]] across the galaxy. Piloting his new, heavily modified Sith Starfighter and wielding dark power, he morphs his spacecraft into an imposing combat robot.<ref>''Star Wars Transformers'' Darth Vader Sith Starfighter package</ref>

Later, as a sinister Lord of the Sith, Darth Vader is on a mission to crush the Rebels and bring young [[Luke Skywalker]] before the Emperor. Vader combs the galaxy for Skywalker in his TIE Advanced Fighter, another spacecraft that can morph into a humanoid robot, destroying all Rebel ships, pirate fleets, and asteroids that get in his way.<ref>''Star Wars Transformers'' Darth Vader TIE Advanced Fighter package</ref>

Using his advanced TIE mecha once more, Vader participates in a shattering starship battle with his former master. Unable to best his opponent in giant robot combat Darth Vader is forced to fall back on his ship's vehicle mode's missile defenses. Giving us a true sense of their power, we learn that like [[Primus]] and [[Unicron]] before them, the conflict between these two powerful force users is enough to rock an entire galaxy.<ref>''Star Wars Transformers'' Darth Vader "Galactic Showdown" set</ref>

Darth Vader is also in command of the transforming [[Death Star]] battle station, which he uses in the battle against the [[Rebel Alliance]].<ref>''Star Wars Transformers'' Darth Vader Death Star package</ref>

:Darth Vader also has four other ''[[Attacktix]]'' figures not sold in ''Transformers'' packaging, designated "Starter Set", "Series 1", "Series 2", and "Series 3". The Starter Set figure reveals him to be the same person as Anakin Skywalker!

:Darth Vader's first mecha transforms into a [[wikia:starwars:TIE_Advanced_x1|TIE Advanced Starfighter]], featuring twin spring-loaded missile launchers. These missiles become "[[lightsaber]]" melee weapons for the robot mode. One of the vehicle mode's solar panel arrays forms a "cape" for the robot mode, the other a large deflector shield. Like all ''Star Wars Transformers'' toys, it comes with a tiny mini-figure of its pilot that fits into the ship's cockpit.

*'''Darth Vader/Death Star''' (2007)
**''Accessories:'' Gun, missile, lightsaber, cape, 3 TIE Fighters, 3 Stormtrooper figures, Darth Vader figure
:The imposing, sole Supreme-class figure of the ''Star Wars Transformers'' toyline, this gigantic Darth Vader mech transforms into the planet-destroying [[Death Star]]. Featuring excellent [[Articulation]], it has ratchet joints at the shoulders, elbows, hips, and knees, with swivel joints taking up the remaining few. In both modes, it has a spring loaded missile launcher that fires a small, translucent green projectile. It also features lights and sounds, with several clips taken from the movie. In robot mode, it has a seriously gigantic light saber. Taped inside the package is a cloth cape which can be attached to the back of the figure in robot mode (be careful not to throw it away).

[[Image:SW DeathStar Vader details.jpg|left|100px|thumb|Darth Vader and his bitches—er, that is, Stormtroopers.]]
:Like all figures in the ''Star Wars Transformers'' line, it comes with a pilot figure of the character the toy depicts. Additionally, it comes with three more figures, all of which are generic [[Stormtrooper (SW)|Stormtroopers]]. Three [[TIE Fighter|TIE Fighters]] are also included, which also have a Mech Mode. Oddly, the instructions and description on the box refer to them as [[Mini-Con|Mini-Cons]]. In both modes, panels on the back open to reveal storage compartments for the pilots and TIE Fighters, while in Mech mode there are several smaller compartments on the legs and shoulders for the pilots.

:The instructions give no suggestion as to where to put the lightsaber in vehicle mode, though there is plenty of empty space inside. Additionally, the compartments on either side of the back seem at first barely large enough to accommodate more than one TIE at a time without disassembling the solar arrays, but it is actually possible to fit two of them as a whole in one case with some intelligent positioning.

*'''Galactic Showdown''' (2007)

: A redeco of the TIE Advanced Fighter in a light Imperial gray (as opposed to his original dark blue), this version of Vader was released in a Wal-Mart [[Exclusive]] two-pack with a redeco of the [[Obi-Wan Kenobi|Obi-Wan Kenobi Jedi Starfighter]]. The set did not change either mold, and both came with their original pilot mini-figures. The set saw poor distribution, and was primarily seen in west coast stores. The set was only available in Super Wal-mart locations.

===Crossovers===
[[Image:Crossovers-toy AnakinSkywalker.JPG|right|300px|thumb|]]
*'''Jedi Starfighter to Anakin Skywalker''' (2008)
**''Accessories:'' 2 hyperdrive ring parts, 2 hyperdrive engines/missile launchers, 2 lightsabers/missiles
:A [[retool]] of the [[Saesee Tiin]] [[wikia:starwars:Delta-7_Aethersprite-class_light_interceptor|Delta-7 interceptor]] mold into a [[wikia:starwars:Delta-7B_Aethersprite-class_light_interceptor|Delta-7B]] (the difference being that the [[R2-D2|astromech droid]] is in the center of the craft instead of on the left wing) and featuring a new head. Anakin once again comes with two lightsabers/missiles, this time fired from the thrusters on the starfighter's hyperdrive ring. Unlike the toys released under the ''Star Wars Transformers'' banner, this toy does not come with a tiny pilot figure.

:This version of the mold was retooled with new heads to make [[Ahsoka Tano]] and [[Kit Fisto]]'s Jedi Starfighters, while the original Saesee Tiin version was also used to make [[Obi-Wan Kenobi]] and [[Plo Koon]].

*'''Darth Vader to TIE Advanced X1 Starfighter''' (2009/2010)
**''Accessories:'' 2 lightsabers/missiles, 2 solar panels/shield & cape
:A repackaging of the very first transforming Darth Vader toy. While the toy is identical to the previous release, the mini-figure accessory was removed for this release.

:This toy was first made available under the ''Crossovers'' banner in 2009 in white and blue packaging, and later in the summer of 2010 in black and blue packaging.

*'''Anakin Skywalker to The ''Twilight''''' (2010)
**''Accessories'': Missile launcher, lightsaber/missile, small blaster

:This Anakin toy transforms from a robot with asymmetrical arms to the equally asymmetrical starship known as the ''[[Twilight (SW)|Twilight]]''. He comes with [[R2-D2]], who converts into the large engine pod on the left side of the starship. The figure's lightsaber doubles as a missile, which can be fired from a handheld launcher in robot mode, or from the starship's rooftop gun. The blaster at the end of the folding bottom wing can be used by Anakin as a handgun.

:Having been designed explicitly for the Star Wars Crossovers line, this mold does not feature an opening cockpit to fit a mini-figure, unlike many previous designs which were either carryovers or re-used from the Star Wars Transformers toyline.

[[Image:Crossovers-toy_AnakinY-wing.jpg|thumb|right|300px|]]
*'''Anakin Skywalker to Y-wing Bomber''' (2010)
**''Accessories'': Vehicle nose/gun, missile, lightsaber, 2x blaster pistols

:Anakin is a [[retool]] of the [[Y-wing|Y-wing Pilot]] toy with a new head and chestplate, transforming into a white and yellow Y-wing bomber. The nose of the craft can fire a two-pronged missile, and detaches to become a handheld gun in robot mode. The figure also carries a lightsaber and two small blaster pistols that fit into holster's on Anakin's hips. Early [[stock photo]]s didn't show Anakin's lightsaber, leading to the belief that the toy lacked one, but the weapon was present when the toy was eventually released. As the Y-wing mold wasn't designed with a lightsaber in mind, it has nowhere to store in vehicle mode.

{{-}}
[[Image:Crossovers-toy_AnakinStarfighter2010.jpg|thumb|right|300px|]]
*'''Anakin Skywalker to Jedi Starfighter''' (2010)
**''Accessories:'' Lightsaber

:This Anakin toy is the same as his 2008 Jedi Starfighter toy, except it has less accessories. Like the 2010 [[Obi-Wan Kenobi]] toy, Anakin doesn't come with his hyperdrive ring and has only one lightsaber. ''Un''like Obi-Wan, he retains the same head mold, hand molds and paint layout as the original toy.

{{-}}
[[Image:Crossovers-toy_Class1_AnakinStarfighter.jpg|thumb|right|300px|]]
*'''Anakin Skywalker to Jedi Starfighter''' (2011)
**''Accessories:'' 2 lightsabers

:Part of the first wave of a smaller, simpler class (Similar to the Cyberverse Commander class) of ''Crossovers'' toys, this new Anakin mold again transforms into an Eta-2 Actis interceptor. Interestingly, the instructions neglect to mention that the figure has storage for its lightsabers. The sabers can clip on within 2 clips underneath the legs, which form the front sections of the ship.

{{-}}
[[Image:Crossovers-toy_AnakinVader.jpg|thumb|right|300px|]]
*'''Darth Vader to Star Destroyer''' (2011)
**''Accessories:'' 2 blue lightsabers, red lightsaber, 2 missiles, shield/Star Destroyer hull

:This large toy has two robot modes and two vehicle modes, representing both of the character's distinct personas as Darth Vader and Anakin Skywalker. He transforms into both an Imperial Star Destroyer and a "Jedi Cruiser" (actually a Republic Attack Cruiser).

* The Darth Vader/Death Star Transformer was at one point going to be based around the incomplete second Death Star shown in ''Return of the Jedi'' and had a similarly incomplete robot mode with one shattered eye.<ref>Hasbro Design Sketchbook Volume 1 - 2008, p 12-13</ref> This was eschewed in favor of using the complete Death Star and robot mode. It is otherwise identical to the concept art.

Early one morning at [[Fire Station Prime]], Chief Charlie directed [[Heatwave (RB)|Heatwave]] to participate in a fire training exercise on the other side of town. After Heatwave left, Chief Charlie's son Cody arrived, eager to be given his own mission. However, Chief Charlie only trusted Cody with washing [[Sparkplug (RB)|Sparkplug]], the firehouse dog. Though dejected, Cody and Sparkplug were able to alert Chief Charlie to the presence of an electrical fire within Fire Station Prime itself! Trapped on the roof of the burning station, the Burnses struggled to activate the [[Prime Signal]] to call for help, until ultimately Cody was able to activate it manually. Heatwave quickly returned, and Chief Charlie's son was surprised to learn that their fire truck was actually a fire-fighting sentient robot! After the fire was extinguished and the group spoke with Optimus Prime via teleconference, Chief Charlie nodded with approval as his son was welcomed as a full member of the team. {{storylink|Prime Alert}}

Beast Wars: Transformers (video game)

'''''Beast Wars: Transformers''''' is a third-person shooting game released for the Sony [[PlayStation]] platform in 1997. It was later [[wikipedia:Shovelware|ported]] to the PC platform in 1998.

Players picked their side and sent their Transformers on missions against both the opposing side and the extradimensional [[Skriix]] aliens.

==Plot==
{{note|This game takes place in an alternate version of the [[Beast Wars (event)|Beast Wars]], branching off from main continuity during the first season of the cartoon, presumably at least after [[Inferno (BW)|Inferno]]'s introduction in "[[Spider's Game]]".}}
[[Image:Bw game wtf.jpg|200px|thumb|left|Dude! Dude. Seriously... what in the Pit?!]]
The Maximals and Predacons have been battling on prehistoric earth for an extensive period of time. So long have they been stranded on this hostile planet, that each warrior now has their own personal base and army, each located in a separate region of the planet. However, as the battle between the Predacons and the Maximals rages on, the aliens known as the Skriix invade the planet, forcing both factions to take arms against this new threat.

==Gameplay==
The basic object of the game is to run around blindly and shoot everything in sight. You have two meters: your life meter and an energon meter that drains while you're in robot mode (switching to beast mode stops the process and allows it to slowly refill, but you can't attack in this mode regardless of what dangerous beast you are). Both sides have four characters you can play as, and if you lose one, they're lost for good unless you can find a "rescue" icon in the level and complete the resultant rescue mission. It is generally a few shades this side of sadomasochistic.

==Notes==
* A game model was made for [[Waspinator (BW)|Waspinator]] with plans to have him in the game, but those ultimately fell through.
* The Beast Wars cast did not reprise their characters' voices for the game, and while their presence would have made the game WAAAAAAY better, it's probably best that they managed to avoid marching in this crap parade.
* While the Playstation version of the game was limited to a single-player affair, the PC version surprisingly had an option to play with up to 8 people over LAN or online; in fact, for a while during the game's release, the MSN Gaming Zone reserved several rooms for multiplayer Beast Wars games. "Fans" of the game claim this is enough to dredge the game out from being horrible to barely mediocre.
* Upon its release in the UK, the PC version of the game was available bundled with a regular-class Beast Wars figure, making it a not-completely worthless purchase.
* The game was featured in the first episode of the Animorphs television series. The main characters are playing the game at an arcade, though the show makes no reference to the game being related to Beast Wars at all, in fact the game narration has nothing to do with Beast Wars either.

Megatron (Kre-O)

2011-07-17T16:57:17Z

98.217.25.72: /* Kre-O */

{{faction|decepticon}}
{{disambig3|Megatron}}
:''Megatron is a [[Decepticon]] from the [[Kre-O]] continuity.''

[[Image:KreO Megatron.jpg|right|thumb|250px|Me, myself, and-- Shockwave, what are you ''doing'' here?]]
'''Megatron''' has a reputation for being a bad guy. Mostly it is because he is a diabolically evil commander. If people knew the softer side of him, they might change their minds. But, then again, the softer side of him includes his love of crushing [[Autobot]]s... so maybe not.

Megatron has a swing on the front porch of his building where he likes to read the ''[[Kreon Kode]]''. He prefers seafood restaurants that give you a mallet to crush crabs. The thought of being lost in a box of random Kre-O bricks scares him.
{{--}}

==Fiction==
Megatron fought Optimus Prime and lost. But he quickly rebuilt himself and tagged [[Starscream (Kre-O)|Starscream]] in. {{storylink|Last Bot Standing}}

Megatron was a judge at a dance competition he gave Bumblebee a bad score and gave Starscream's terrible performance a ridiculously high score. {{storylink|Bot Stars}}

==Toys==
===Kre-O===
* '''Megatron''' w/ Megatron, [[Shockwave (Kre-O)|Shockwave]], Specialist Kreon, and police officer Kreon. (2011, 310 pieces)

:Megatron transforms into what resembles a Mack truck, loosely based upon his [[Megatron (Movie)|Movie counterpart]]'s appearance in the [[Dark of the Moon (film)|third live-action film]]. In truck mode, up to two Kreons can ride in the cab.
{{charstubfiction}}

Like many other Kre-O sets, The stock photography features robot construction that differ from the final product. Megatron's upper arms have several of the extraneous parts, mainly his truck cab doors, added to the construction. Whether this is due to a change in the design or the photographers creative liberty with the figure is left to be seen.

{{mainpic}}
'''Sentinel Prime''' is well-known for his courage and strength. He is renowned by the [[Autobots]] and feared by the [[Decepticons]]. He's retired.

==Toys==
*'''Sentinel Prime''' w/ [[Soundwave (Kre-O)|Soundwave]], [[Thundercracker (Kre-O)|Thundercracker]], Sentinel Prime, and Fire Chief [[Kreon]]s
:Sentinel is part of the first [[wave]] of [[Kre-O]] sets and can be built in either robot or [[Dark of the Moon]] inspired fire truck mode. A Kreon can fit in his cab.

Like many other Kre-O sets, The stock photography features robot construction that differ from the final product. Sentinel Prime's shoulders, feet, and legs are a bit different than on the actual toy.

:The design of the Sentinel Prime Kreon is inspired by [[Sentinel Prime (G1)|Sentinel Prime]]'s appearance in the ''[[Megatron Origin]]'' comics.
