Many toys have been made of [[Generation 1 continuity family|Generation 1]] '''[[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]]''', enough to warrant this page!

*'''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'' releases. 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.

:The Italian release of Starscream (as "Astrum") by [[GiG]] put him in a generic "Distructor Planes" box, featuring names and tech specs for all three planes in the assortment.

: Starscream's mold was [[redeco]]ed into the concurrently-available [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys|Thundercracker]] and [[Skywarp (G1)/toys|Skywarp]]. It would later be redecoed again to make [[Sunstorm (G1)|Sunstorm]], and [[retool]]ed into [[Dirge (G1)/toys|Dirge]], [[Ramjet (G1)/toys|Ramjet]], and [[Thrust (G1)/toys|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.

*'''Good Bye Megatron''' (Multi-pack, 1986)
**''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 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)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|of sorts]]) in ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]''. Starscream himself was ''actually'' dead, but where was his "Good Bye Starscream" set, eh?

*'''Starscream''' (Classic Pretender, 1989)
**''Accessories'': 2-part Pretender shell, helmet, left & right wings, left & right "lasers"/tail wings, rifle
: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. When Starscream is inside the shell, his removable grey wings store in holes on the shell's back, while the blue lasers get plugged into the sides of the large rifle.

:The inner robot of Pretender Starscream was also sold as a [[Kmart]] [[exclusive]] "[[Legends (G1)|Legends]]" figure, sans its shell and the shell's accessories. It was otherwise identical to the Classic Pretender release.

*'''Hero Set''' (Multi-pack, 1989)
**''Accessories'': Left & right wings, left & right "lasers"/tail wings

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

:In Italy, [[GiG]] also forewent releasing the individual Classic Pretenders, and instead released their own version of the Hero Set named "Set Commandos". Starscream was given the name "Tornado", which was originally the Italian name of [[Air Raid (G1)|Air Raid]]. The "Set Commandos" toys were identical to the Japanese "Hero Set" versions.

*'''Starscream / Turbo Jet''' (Action Master, 1990)
**''Accessories:'' Turbo Jet, rifle, 2 missiles

: [[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.

: This mold was [[redeco]]ed as [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#ActionMaster|Action Master Thundercracker]].

**''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

:The first of numerous reissues of the original Generation 1 Starscream toy in the 21st century, this Japanese release of the figure included functional spring-loaded launchers, and was also simultaneously available as three different exclusive redecos, [[#Collector's Edition|listed below]].

===Generation 2===
[[File:G2Starscream toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|With my camouflaged wings, I'll appear to be merely a fuselage flying through the sky!]]
*'''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 ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' release is a slight [[retool]] of his original toy, armed with new, functional 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.

{{anchor|ATB}}
[[File:G2toy ATB megs and screamer.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|Transforms from backstabber to backpack and back!]]
*'''Megatron''' (limited test market release)
**''Accessories'': 12 missiles, 2 missiles launchers

: A planned-but-more-or-less-canceled redeco of ''Generation 2'' [[Dreadwing (G2)|Dreadwing]], "Advanced Tactical Bomber" [[Megatron (G1)/toys#ATB|Megatron]] would have come with Starscream, a redeco of Dreadwing'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: Super Lifeform Transformers (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 ''[[Robotmasters (franchise)|Robotmasters]]'' line as [[Smokesniper]].

: This figure was only released to test markets in Ohio in very limited quantities. It was never available as a wide release.

===Machine Wars===
[[File:MWStarscream Toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|I have no mouth and I must Starscream.]]
*'''Starscream''' (Ultra, 1997)
**''Accessories:'' 10 missiles
: Starscream's ''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' incarnation is a redeco of the [[Predator (subgroup)|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. The figure also features a barely noticeable yet enormous Decepticon symbol on the [http://www.seibertron.com/transformers-toys/view/machine-wars/starscream/608/2/25/ top of the plane] rendered in black paint on black plastic.

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

: This mold was later redecoed to make [[King Atlas]]. The toy was repurposed as the [[Starscream drone]]s.

===Transtech===
[[File:Starscream-transtech.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Obscure both by design and by accident]]
*'''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]].

: This design was revived by [[Draxhall Jump]] when they were contracted to create the ''[[Marvel Comics|Marvel]] Megamorphs'' line for Toy Biz; Starscream ultimately became the [[Iron Man]] toy.

===Collector's Edition===

[[File:GhostStarscream toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Wait a minute. Since when do ghosts have painted metal chests?]]
*'''Starscream Ghost Version''' (e-Hobby Exclusive, 2001)
**''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

: Available concurrently with the 2001 reissue of the original Generation 1 Starscream figure, "Starscream Ghost Version" is an [[e-HOBBY]] [[exclusive]] ''[[Collector's Edition]]'' 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)|original ''The Transformers'' 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 ''Collector's Edition'' 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: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' [[#Machine_Wars|Starscream]], despite the only real point of similarity being that they are both black. The toy's [[bio]] makes a rare fictional reference to ''Machine Wars'', describing [[Machine Wars (event)|the events]] of the series in the past tense. The toy shared the window-box packaging of the "Ghost Version" (see above), except its box was monochrome-black.

===Transformers Generations Lucky Draw===

*'''Starscream Secret Version''' (Lucky Draw figure, 2001)
**''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

: 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 was not even 100% known ''what the toy looked like'' until a picture of it appeared in ''[[Transformers Generations 2009]]'', showing it as being primarily clear and colorless. Prior to this appearance, it was suggested that both this toy and the ''SCF'' Skywarp were ''not'' officially released, due to the bankruptcy of ''Generations'' publisher [[Keibunsha]]. Whether or not this scenario is accurate is still unknown at this time, as no one has publicly translated the text regarding the figure from ''Generations 2009''.

*'''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 "[[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|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''.

===The Transformers Collection===
[[File:TFC09ScreamerHoldingMegs.jpg|thumb|"Megatron...I am '''ever''' your humble and willing servant."]]
*'''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)/toys|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 ''[[The 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 Playstation 2 video game ''[[The Transformers (PS2)|The Transformers]]'' and Japanese toy [[commercial]]s for Optimus Prime, [[Hot Rod (G1)/toys|Rodimus Prime]] and [[Chromedome (G1)|Chromedome]].

**''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.

===Robotmasters===

*'''Starscream''' (Deluxe, 2004)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''RM-12'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 null rays, 2 missile pods

: Starscream's ''[[Robotmasters (franchise)|Robotmasters]]'' 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 accommodate the generic spring-loaded missile launcher weapon included with ''Robotmasters'' [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Robotmasters|G1 Convoy]], [[Optimus Primal (BW)/toys#Robotmasters|Beast Convoy]] and [[Megatron (BW)/toys#Robotmasters|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 (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 ''Robotmasters'' [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Robotmasters|Skywarp]] and [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Robotmasters|Thundercracker]].

===Masterpiece===

{{MPSeekerMold}}

[[File:MasterpieceStarscream toy.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|And the fandom complained (and rejoiced).]]
*'''Starscream''' (2006)
**''ID number:'' '''MP-3'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 null rays, 2 missile racks, [[Doctor Arkeville#Masterpiece|Doctor Arkeville]] pilot figurine, gun clip, two-piece display stand

:The second new mold in [[TakaraTomy|Takara]]'s ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|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 unobtrusive built-in gimmicks, including ''numerous'' opening panels on his jet mode surface (highlighting the attention this mode received), 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 can store Starscream's accessories while they are not in use. [[Control drawing|Control art]] for ''Masterpiece'' Starscream which showed the figure wearing his [[Transformer clothing|Crown of Leadership]] (as seen in the coronation scene of the original animated movie) and a pair of otherwise-pointless flip-out notches in the finished toy's shoulders indicated that Takara planned for a set of clip-on coronation gear. Ultimately, it would take ''six years'' before these accessories were finally released.

: ''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 Starscream's tail-fin structures from his 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 ''[[Transformers: Armada (franchise)|Armada]]'' and ''[[Transformers: Energon (franchise)|Energon]]'' cartoons' portrayal of their [[Starscream (Armada)/Cartoon continuity|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 design was the abandonment of his traditional color scheme, replaced with an all-over greenish-tinged grey. Given that this color is inaccurate to most 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. However, there are instances of [http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6VLv-xwhhag/TZ7hPg5UX-I/AAAAAAAAAXo/UW1469Fm19M/s1600/F-15_three_shipper.jpg F-15 Strike Eagles] that actually utilize this (seldom seen) color scheme.

:This mold was later retooled into the ''Masterpiece'' versions of [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Skywarp]] and [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Thundercracker]], and was recolored by Hasbro into a [[#MasterpieceUS|more cartoon-accurate Starscream color scheme]] released under their ''[[#Classics|Classics]]'' line as well as redecoed into Hasbro's version of Masterpiece [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Universe .282008.29|Skywarp]] under the [[Transformers: Universe (2008 franchise)|Universe]] line. It was also redecoed and retooled to create the eleventh ''Masterpiece'' figure, [[#MP11|Starscream]].

:Though not stated on the package, Starscream is in fact a 1/60 scale F-15. The same scale used by many popular Japanese mecha toys including Kawamori's own ''Macross'' Valkyries. Coincidence?

:Cast almost entirely in translucent plastic, this "Ghost Version" ''Masterpiece'' figure is yet another callback to Starscream's spectral tenure from the Generation 1 cartoon. When purchased from [[e-HOBBY]], buyers received an [[MP-3G Destron Air Commander / Starscream Ghost Ver.|exclusive comic]] packaged with the figure. Surprisingly, Ghost Starscream comes with the same sticker sheet as the original MP-3 Starscream, only with the numbering designation changed.

:Like Gentei Ghost Starscream, Masterpiece Ghost Starscream is cast in light purple translucent plastic instead of just colorless clear plastic like the G1 Ghost Starscream figure.

:''Extreme'' caution is needed while transforming/posing this toy: Several parts of him (especially the wing connectors) are prone to breakage.

**''ID number:'' '''MP-11'''
**''Accessories:'' Crown, pauldrons (left and right), cape, 2 null rays, hologram pilot figurine

:Following up on the original plan for the ''Masterpiece'' Starscream figure six years after the fact, MP-11 decks Screamer out in his coronation gear from ''The Transformers: The Movie'', including crown, twin shoulder pads, and a sculpted plastic cape (rather than a fabric one). In addition to his new accessories—which also include a new hologram pilot figure in place of Doctor Arkeville—Starscream features some extensive retooling to wind his ''Masterpiece'' design away from Kawamori's original, less Generation 1-accurate look, with most of the robot mode being newly tooled parts, including chunkier legs that now incorporate his tail-fins, [[retool]]ed shoulders and wingtips that no longer curve into one another, a new head (with collapsible head fins), new heel spurs that flip out for added support in robot mode, and re-engineered null rays attached to extending armatures that mean they no longer have to be [[Partformer|removed]] for transformation. Despite the similarity to the original MP-3 prototype, the retooled parts are in fact a whole new design heavily based on the original concept. This new version of the mold was redecoed into [[Sunstorm (G1)#Masterpiece|Sunstorm]] and (without the coronation gear) into Hasbro's [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Transformers (2010)|Thundercracker]], [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#MP11SW|Skywarp]] and [[Acid Storm (G1)#Masterpiece|Acid Storm]]. It was later retooled into the [[Seeker (body-type)#Coneheads|Coneheads]] [[Ramjet (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Ramjet]], [[Thrust (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Thrust]] and [[Dirge (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Dirge]], although the mold by that point had noticeably [[Mold#Deterioration|deteriorated]], resulting in numerous quality control issues.

:2013 saw a China-only re-release of MP-11 Starscream. While announced as the same as the original, it featured some changes. Chief among them are the head is no longer molded in light gray plastic painted over gloss black and dark metallic gray (for the face) but it's molded in a more cartoon accurate dark gray (for the helmet) and a lighter metallic gray for the face. This release also features the nosecone molded in light gray plastic rather than molded in blue and then painted over light gray. The black tabs on the top of the jet are now the same grey as the rest of the jet. It also included a collector's coin like the original Asian (excluding Japan) release.

:This version was released by Hasbro [[#Masterpiece 2|under ''Generations'' co-branding]].

*'''Starscream''' (Deluxe, 2006)
**''Accessories:'' 2 null-ray cannons (left and right), 2 missiles

: Like the other entries in the ''[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]'' series, Starscream is a 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 ''[[#Robotmasters|Robotmasters]]'' 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 {{w|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 {{w|File:F-15A first prototype 2.jpg|the original F-15 prototype}}.

:As usual, Starscream is armed with his familiar null-rays, which can 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 parts of Starscream, 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.

: [[Variant#Running changes|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 used as the basis for all subsequent redecos and retools.

*'''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 ''Masterpiece'' figure from Takara, recolored to resemble the character's animation model, down to the orange canopy and the silver nosecone, although the cartoon-accurate silver paint on the nosecone actually covers ''toy''-accurate blue plastic.<ref>[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/radicons-customs/206593-clean-mp-ss-cleanscream-blue-nosecone.html Clean MP SS - Cleanscream(blue nosecone) - tfw2005.com]</ref> 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 as 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 as a "[[USA Edition]]", 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 operation]]s were dialed back, and those that remained were switched to a lighter gray.

:Perversely enough, ''[[Titanium Series|Titanium]]'' Starscream is actually a redeco of ''Titanium'' [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#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 series ''[[Transformers: The War Within|The War Within]]'', this version of Starscream transforms into Cybertronian "tetra-jet", as designed by [[Don Figueroa]].

:This red and black redeco of the ''[[Transformers Sports Label|Sports Label]]'' [[Megatron (G1)/toys#Sports Label|Megatron]] figure (itself a retool of the ''Sports Label'' [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Sports Label|Optimus Prime]]) appeared on eBay in mid-2007, identified by the auctioneer as Starscream. More pictures followed from a different source a month later, but after that, this strange little redeco quietly vanished, never released, and never even officially ''acknowledged'' by [[TakaraTomy]]. Was it a [[knockoff|knock-off]], or an abandoned official product? We may never know.

:As a redeco of the one communal mold used for all the ''Sports Label'' toys, Starscream, if that's who he really was, would have transformed into an undersized Nike sneaker with real fabric shoelaces, and would have been armed with a modular two-piece gun that split and stored inside each half of the large sneaker "shell" that made up a big chunk of his alternate mode.

This edition of the figure featured no extra accessories, with its only notable change from past versions being a pale yellow window instead of dark gray, and the inclusion of [[tampograph]]ed Decepticon insignias on its wings and nosecone, rather than stickers (similar to the ''[[#Transformers Collection|Transformers Collection]]'' reissue before it but not flipped like the animation and metallic purple and silver instead of glossy purple and white).

: Starscream Ghost Version uses the altered version of the ''Classics'' Starscream mold that originated with Classics [[Skywarp (G1)/toys|Skywarp]] and was last seen with [[Acid Storm (G1)|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 [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Classics (2006)|''Classics'' Starscream]], with a considerably lighter gray base color, more vibrant red paint, his face painted in dark gray compared to ''Classics'' Starscream's flat gray plastic color for the face and a deco more faithful to Starscream's original Generation 1 toy, very similar to the ''Henkei! Henkei!'' release.

:Several minor changes were made to the sculpt for this release: his launcher pegs were widened, and the peg-holes for them on his shoulders and wings were modified in order to accommodate them. His air intakes were further modified (on top of the changes made to the mold for [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Classics (2006)|''Classics'' Skywarp]]) so that the bottom-most rectangle goes completely across the air intake's surface rather than just the center.

:The figure is reported to suffer from heavy quality control issues, most commonly mentioned are the joints and hinges being incredibly weak. As a result, Starscream's wings are difficult to keep in place in robot mode. The elbows, which previously snapped into place when articulated, now slide freely, and the entire hip joint system can be shifted out of alignment.

:This modified version of the mold was used for ''Henkei! Henkei!'' [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Henkei! Henkei!|Skywarp]] and [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Universe (2008)|Thundercracker]].

Like the other toys in the line, he features [[die-cast]] metal parts and rubber tires, as well as an opening hood, trunk and doors. This is also currently the only ''Alternity'' mold to feature [[Kibble#"Faux-parts"|a fake kibble chest]].

:In car mode, small wings are ''supposed to'' be able to flip out from under Starscream's rear wheels, giving him the appearance of a flying car. Unfortunately, this [[gimmick]] suffers from a rather nasty [[design flaw]]: there is simply not enough clearance under the car for the wheels to be able to pass and hinge through, and attempting to do so will result in the plastic reinforcement struts underneath ''deforming the rims and chipping the tires''. His door panels also tend to detach from their [[ball joint]]s ''very easily''.

:This mold, with a different head sculpt, was also used to make the simultaneously released ''Alternity'' [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Alternity|Skywarp]], and later [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Alternity|Thundercracker]] and [[Banzai-Tron (G1)#Alternity|Banzai-Tron]] as well.

:[[Legends Class (2005)|Legends Class]] Starscream is a new sculpt based on his Generation 1 jet appearance with many fuselage details borrowed from the [[#Masterpiece|Masterpiece version]]. This is the first Starscream in many years to attempt an entirely new transformation for him, with the arms now forming the rear of the jet and the legs folding under the wings. Amusingly, he has ''two'' cockpits, with the one that is actually part of his jet mode folding ''right behind'' the [[kibble#faux-parts|fake]] one on his chest in robot mode. As part of the "[[Reveal the Shield]]" [[subline imprint]], Starscream sports a [[rubsign]].

: Early specimens of the toy released in Asia and at United States retail feature an unpainted gray-plastic helmet, a comparatively rare [[variant]]. This variant is the one featured in the Hasbro [[stock photography]], although the stock photo depicting the figure in [[multilingual packaging|European packaging]] has the more common black helmet, as this was the only version ever available at European retail.

Throughout 2011, they eventually started appearing in discount stores like Ross, TJ Maxx, Marshalls, and Tuesday Morning, with perhaps the largest and most consistent outlet being Five Below stores.

**''Japanese number:'' '''TG09'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 assault cannons
{{note|This toy was [[repurposing|repurposed]] as Generation 1 Starscream in [[IDW Publishing]]'s ''[[The Transformers: Robots in Disguise|Robots in Disguise]]'' comics.}}

: Part of the third wave of [[2012]]-onwards ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' Deluxe Class toys, ''[[Transformers: Fall of Cybertron|Fall of Cybertron]]'' [[Starscream (WFC)#Generations|Starscream]] transforms into a Cybertronian jet fighter. He comes with two spinning, triple-barreled "assault cannons" which can combine to form a larger hand-held weapon that is geared to spin its two triple-barrels together, and resembles the [[Neutron assault rifle]] from ''Fall of Cybertron''. Each of the weapon halves features two [[5mm post]]s, as well as a peg-hole on their hollow sides, while the combined form features another peg-hole at the top, but makes the peg-holes on the hollow sides inaccessible. Starscream features numerous 5mm peg-holes, such as his hands, forearms, lower legs, and wing undersides.

: In an undocumented feature, Starscream's tail-fin is attached via a 5mm post on its underside, and can be detached to reveal three additional peg-holes, with two of these peg-holes being just the right distance to accommodate the two pegs found on the underside of the combined assault cannons/rifle, with the tail-fin pegging on the rifle's top peg-hole. This allows the weapon to mount on top of the vehicle mode, and store on his back in robot mode.

: He was later redecoed into ''Fall of Cybertron'' [[Skywarp (WFC)#Generations|Skywarp]] and ''Thrilling 30'' [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Thrilling30|Thundercracker]] and [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Generations|Skywarp]].

*'''Starscream & Waspinator''' (Legends Class, 2013)
**''Series / Number'': '''02 / #003'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 null ray cannons

:Part of the fourth wave of 2012-onwards ''Generations'' Legends Class toys, ''[[Thrilling 30]]'' Starscream is a new mold that is roughly the same size as a ''[[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]]'' Commander Class toy. Based on a [[Guido Guidi]] [[Seeker (body-type)|seeker]] concept for the [[The Transformers (IDW)|first IDW ongoing series]], Starscream transforms from a hybrid F-15/F-22 style jet. He features a fold out front landing gear, [[5mm post|5mm-compatible]] hands, and back/roof, and has [[C joint|3mm-compatible]] upper arm ports. He comes with two removable null rays that have both 5mm and 3mm pegs.

: Alluding to the ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (cartoon)|Beast Wars]]'' episode "[[Possession]]", Starscream is partnered with [[Waspinator (BW)/toys#Generations|Waspinator]], who can transform into a wasp, a robot with 3mm-compatible hands, and a gun with 5mm handle. He has an [[autotransformation]] feature that folds up his wings when his gun barrel is extended.

: This figure was redecoed into ''[[Thrilling 30]]'' [[Acid Storm (G1)#Generations|Acid Storm]], ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' Legends-class [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Generations|Thundercracker]], and ''Combiner Wars'' [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Generations|Skywarp]].

{{note|This toy was repurposed as a body for the [[Starscream (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|IDW 2005 incarnation]] of Starscream.}}

:Part of the eighth wave of 2012-onwards ''Generations'' Deluxe Class toys, ''[[Thrilling 30]]'' "[[Starscream (Armada)#Generations|Armada Starscream]]" is a modern update of the original ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' [[Starscream (Armada)#Armada|Starscream]] figure. He comes with two "Energon Swords" which he holds via 5mm post, and can fold up and store on his wings. He has numerous [[Powerlinx]] plugs on his forearms and turbines. Additionally, his turbines can each fire a missile in either mode via pressure-launch, and can be positioned in robot mode to either face forward or lay flat on his back.

:While his [[bio]] paints this toy as ''Armada'' Starscream, the included comic by [[IDW Publishing]] repurposes this toy as a new body for Generation 1 Starscream in their ''[[The Transformers: Robots in Disguise|Robots in Disguise]]'' comic book series, debuting it in the [[Dark Dawn: Dark Cybertron Chapter 1|issue]] the figure comes packaged with.

*'''Starscream''' (Leader Class, 2015)
**''Accessories:'' Missile launcher, missile, 2 arm cannons, 2 leg cannons, 2 "Seeker guns", crown

:Starscream is a redeco of ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' Leader Class [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#CWLeader|Thundercracker]], itself a retool of ''Thrilling 30'' [[Jetfire (G1)/toys#Generations|Jetfire]]. He transforms from a robot into a jet fighter, and includes a missile launcher and four limb-mounted weapons, two guns based on the traditional Seeker arm rifles, and the infamous crown based on the equally infamous coronation scene from ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'', which fits around his head. He also features a faux cockpit.

:Starscream does not include the original Jetfire mold's "Turbo Thruster" booster pack accessory, but is still compatible with it.

*'''Starscream''' (Cyber Battalion, 2015)
**''Accessories'': 2 null-ray rifles
:As one of seven toys in the [[Transformers: Generations#Cyber Battalion Seres|Cyber Battalion]] series, Cyber Series Starscream is a Voyager-sized figure intended to be sold at a cheaper price point. Starscream features a transformation similar to his ''Generations'' Legends Class counterpart. Undocumented in the instructions and as shown in the packaging art, Starscream's rifles can be attached underneath his wings and his robot mode arms.

:Unfortunately, the figure did not get distribution in the United States, but has been reported showing up in Asian markets and was also solicited to South America. Toy importers did stock this series in a limited capacity and they sold out quickly in 2015 and effectively disappeared at that time. In 2016, the Cyber Battalion Starscream figure (along with ''Cyber Battalion'' Optimus Prime and Bumblebee) saw release in the Universal Studios Theme Park, and finally ended up being turned into a Walgreens exclusive.

[[File:Hasbro_MP_Starscream.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|And the award for the worst posed and badly transformed ''Masterpiece'' photo goes to...]]
*'''Starscream''' (2015)
**''ID number:'' '''MP-07'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 null rays, 2 missile racks, hologram pilot figurine, two-piece display stand, gun clip

:The Hasbro version of [[#MP11|MP-11]] differs from the Takara release in a toy-accurate blue nose cone, borders around the Decepticon logo, a slightly different grey plastic, the tabs of the top of the jet are in grey (like the second release of MP-11) and is missing the coronation gear. However, he does come with the stand from previous Masterpiece Seekers and two racks of missiles that can peg onto the bottom of his wings in place of the null rays. Neither the box nor the instructions mention this, but he comes with the gray clip that can hold the Megatron gun that came with other ''Masterpiece'' figures, such as MP-1 Optimus Prime or MP-13 Soundwave. Official images, including the box art, shows the top of the wings mis-transformed in robot mode.

:Despite still using the numbering system of Hasbro's ''Masterpiece'' line begun in 2013, Starscream was [[co-branding|co-branded]] as part of the ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' line. He was available exclusively at [[Toys"R"Us]] stores in the US, Australia, and Canada.

:''[[Alt-Modes]]'' Starscream is a super deformed toy whose body transforms into a jet when the Decepticon faction symbol on his head is flipped. He was [[Blindpacking|blind-boxed]] and available in all four cases of the toyline.

:This mold was redecoed into ''Alt-Modes'' [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Alt-Modes|Skywarp]], [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Alt-Modes|Thundercracker]], [[Acid Storm (G1)#Alt-Modes|Acid Storm]] and [[Sunstorm (G1)#Alt-Modes|Sunstorm]], and would have been retooled into [[Dirge (G1)/toys#Alt-Modes|Dirge]].

**''Accessories:'' Two null-rays, 2 Prime Armor/combiner feet, [[Enigma of Combination#Generations|Seeker Enigma]]
[[File:PowerOfThePrimestoy-Starscream.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|left|Arise, THICC-Scream.]]
:''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'' Starscream is an all new mold that transforms from robot that utilizes the [[Evergreen]]-styled design into a fighter jet. He also features some markings on his jet mode: an Autobot kill count on the right side of the cockpit, and a Decepticon symbol with the number "D-22" (a reference to Starscream's Japanese ID number). Starscream can also form the torso of [[Starscream Combiner|an unnamed combiner]] using any selection of ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]''-style Deluxe Class figures as limbs. His instructions and [[TakaraTomy]] stock photos depict him with the ''Power of the Primes'' Deluxe Class figures from Wave 1. He also includes Prime Armor that can hold a [[Prime Master]] (and by extension, a [[Titan Master]], Enigma, or [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#Power of the Primes|Matrix core]]) and can turn into feet for said unnamed combiner. The silhouette of Starscream's torso mode appears to homage the robot mode of another [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]]. Like all the other Voyager Class figures, Starscream includes an Enigma of Combination (dubbed the ''Seeker Enigma''), based on a Prime Master, which can attach to Starscream via the previously mentioned Prime Armor or the combined mode chest, which can also facilitate the other previously mentioned objects. It's very possible the ability to combine is a reference to the [[Starscream (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity#Deviations|Deviations combiner Megascream]], but it could also just be a thing they did because why not.

:There are several reports of the peg that connects the wings often refusing to connect well. In 2018, a running change was made in the re-release of the toy: the peg that connects between the wings and the robot back has been retooled to connect firmly. The only way to identify this running change is the code "73101" stamped onto the box.

:Starscream was later retooled into [[Elita One (G1)#Generations|Elita-1]].

====War for Cybertron: Siege====
[[File:WFCS-Voyager-Starscream.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|Rise of the Flyangles.]]
*'''Starscream''' (Voyager Class, [[2019]])
**''ID number'': '''WFC-S24'''
**''Japanese ID number'': '''SG-19'''
**''Japanese release date'': '''[[April 27]], 2019'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 "HPI [[Null-ray|Null-Ray]] Laser Launchers"
:Part of the second wave of ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege (toyline)|Siege]]'' Voyager Class figures, Starscream transforms from a heavily G1-inspired robot to a Cybertronian 'tetrajet' based on the [[Seeker (body-type)|Seekers']] appearance in "[[More than Meets the Eye, Part 1]]" and back; although the jet mode has the robot legs sticking out from the undercarriage. He includes two "HPI Null-Ray Laser Launchers," which can mount on his upper arms, or under the wings in jet mode. As part of the ''Siege'' [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]], Starscream has 5 mm ports on his biceps, forearms, shins, under his feet (thrusters), and wings. The 3mm pegs on his shins, forearms, left bicep, and the tips of his Null-Rays can accommodate effects parts sold separately. Similar to his wavemate Soundwave, Starscream is absolutely ''slathered'' in battle damage paint, heavily coating his legs, chest, forearms and the ''entirety'' of his jet form.

:Like the rest of ''Siege'', his robot mode focuses on articulation, with double-jointed elbows, knees that bend at nearly 180 degrees, ankle rockers, and waist articulation(!) being notable articulation points for a Starscream toy. Being a rather heavy shellformer, Starscream can be separated into both a wingless robot mode and a nearly complete tetrajet easily, via a friction hinge.

:Speaking of friction hinges, the initial release of Starscream suffers from a production flaw: His robot chest usually pops off during transformation, due to a late design change removing a pin from the chest without adjusting the plastic tolerances. Said initial releases also use the live action "angry eyes" Decepticon insignia design. One or both errors were corrected for later wave shipments, with both being fixed by the time the figure shipped again with Voyager Siege [[Springer (G1)|Springer]].

:Amusingly, the panel on his instruction sheet demonstrating where to attach C.O.M.B.A.T. weapons depicts him mistransformed, with his left forearm opened along the transformation hinge. He is also slightly mistransformed in package, with his arms rather adorably left unextended and the panel behind the head not being locked in place between the shoulder pylons.

:Starscream was later redecoed into [[Thundercracker_(G1)/toys#War_for_Cybertron:_Siege|Thundercracker]] and [[Red_Wing#Generations|Red Wing]] with a new smirking face, into [[Skywarp_(G1)/toys#War_for_Cybertron:_Siege|Skywarp]] with a new sneering face, and into [[Acid_Storm_(G1)#War_for_Cybertron:_Siege|Acid Storm]], [[Ion_Storm#Generations|Ion Storm]] and [[Nova_Storm_(G1)#Generations|Nova Storm]] with the original head sculpt.

He has a "spinner" in his chest that shows his three attack types and power levels. His head is very much like his classic Generation 1 design.

: This mold was [[redeco]]ed to make [[Thundercracker (G1)#Bot Shots|Thundercracker]], [[Acid Storm (G1)#Bot Shots|Acid Storm]], [[Skyquake (Prime)|Skyquake]], [[Skywarp (G1)/toys|Skywarp]], and [[Sunstorm (G1)|Sunstorm]].

:Part of the second wave of ''Bot Shots'' launchers, Starscream is redecoed in grey. He comes with a launcher modeled after a jet, which is named the ''Harbinger'' in his online bio. The launcher can attach to him like a trailer, or open up into a base mode. Like all the Base-launchers, the weapon on top of it is an homage to a different version of the character it came with. In Starscream's case, it has a gun resembling G1 Starscream's Null-Ray laser gun.

As a Flip Shot, an impact to the front of his vehicle mode would cause him to flip up when autotransforming. He would be packaged with a launcher and a target. Like many of the Bot Shots from the second year, however, he was cancelled before release.

: This version of Starscream is heavily based on his cartoon appearance. He features a light gray (lighter than the Henkei!

:Another release of the ''Reveal the Shield'' Legends Class sculpt. The deco for its initial release is unchanged from the ''Transformers'' release from 2012, whereas the tooling is identical to the 2012 release's running change variant, with the retooled hands and holes inside his wings compatible with [[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]] [[C joint|3mm]] pegs. Bizarrely, the [[package art]] is lifted directly from the ''Generations'' Legends Class Starscream/Waspinator two-pack's packaging, whereas the [[stock photography|stock photos]] depicted on the back of the packaging are taken from ''Reveal the Shield'' Starscream's packaging and only slightly altered, advertising a "[[Reveal the Shield]]" [[rubsign]] [[gimmick]] the toy doesn't actually have. Meanwhile, Hasbro's official stock photos provided to online retailers (including an in-packaging photo) depict the toy with the Null Rays that came with the running change variant of the sculpt's 2012 release, even though the actual toy doesn't include the weapons.

:Legion Class Starscream has been found at Family Dollar and Dollar General stores in the United States. A later [[variant]] replaced the purple Decepticon insignia with black versions. This later version was also released at general retail in Australia, New Zealand, and Europe.

:This figure was re-released in 2017 in a minor variant of the 2014 version's packaging (including the original product code number and barcode) that now lacked the reference to the non-existing "Reveal the Shield" gimmick.

:Like [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#Transformers (2014)|Bumblebee]] and [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Transformers (2014)|Optimus Prime]], the black insignia variant of the toy ended up being dumped to some hobby shop dealers in Asia.

The cannon can also be swung out and deployed for use in jet mode. He lacks Doubledealer's blaster and sword accessories, but instead comes with two of [[#Masterpiece|''Masterpiece'' Starscream]]'s [[null-ray]] cannons that can plug into the [[5 mm post]]s on his shoulders/vehicle sides, cannon base, and wings.

:''[[Transformers Unite Warriors|Unite Warriors]]'' "Ghost Starscream" is a [[retool]] of ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' [[Skydive (G1 Aerialbot)#Generations|Skydive]] with a new head, cast almost completely in translucent plastic, presumably as a [[homage]] to either his ghost appearance in the third season of the cartoon, or the [[e-HOBBY]] exclusive that was also based on the former. As a Deluxe-sized ''Unite Warriors'' figure, he can combine to form the leg or arm of any ''Combiner Wars''-style Combiner or into one of [[Godbomber#Legends|''Legends'' Godbomber]]'s legs, but would usually be associated with [[Grand Galvatron#Unite Warriors 2|Grand Galvatron]].

:He was sold in an [[TakaraTomy Mall]] exclusive giftset of Grand Galvatron along with [[Cyclonus (G1)/toys#Unite Warriors|Tactician Cyclonus]], [[Thrust (Armada)#Unite Warriors|Curse Armada Thrust]], [[Breakdown (WFC)#Unite Warriors 2|Zombie War Breakdown]], and [[Roller (G1)#Unite Warriors 2|Wandering Roller]].

:This tooling of the mold was also used to make ''Combiner Wars'' [[Starscream (SG)#Generations|Shattered Glass Starscream]] and served as the model for ''Shattered Glass'' [[Thundercracker (SG)#Timelines|Thundercracker]] and [[Skywarp (SG)#Timelines|Skywarp]] in "[[Epilogue Two]]".

:''[[Transformers Legends (franchise)|Legends]]'' Ghost Starscream is a semi transparent redeco/retool of ''[[Titans Return (toyline)|Titans Return]]'' Titan Master [[Nightbeat (G1)#Titans Return|Nightbeat]], featuring a new faceplate. His Headmaster form is designed to invoke the look of his ghost form. He comes as an accessory with Octone, homaging "[[Starscream's Ghost]]" with the aforementioned transparency. The stock photography shows that, in order to differentiate him in control of the body from Octone, the shoulder and head pylons should both be moved up instead of leaving them down. This might be an attempt to replicate Starscream's iconic shoulder pylons and head embellishments.

He comes with two null-rays that can attach to his arms or under his wings. His transformation is nigh-identical to his ''[[Thrilling 30]]'' toy, with a few minor changes; his null rays can now peg to his wings, his face is hidden in jet mode, and the nosecone no longer flips back when forming his chest.

:Amusingly, the Decepticon symbol on his chest is ''ridiculously'' tiny, to the point where it's little more than a purple triangle.

He was released by [[TakaraTomy Mall]] and in [[Cybertron Satellite]] stores as part of TakaraTomy's celebration of the brand's 35th anniversary. In 2019, he also saw an official release in Australia, where he was available from Mr Toys Toyworld.

:The original Starscream toy was reissued as a [[Walmart]] [[exclusive]] in 2018, under the ''[[Vintage G1]]'' label, using the version of the mold from [[#The Transformers Collection|''The Transformers Collection'' release]], complete with a Megatron gun. However, he still retains the elongated null-rays and cluster bombs from the [[#Commemorative Series|''Commemorative Series'' release]]. His eyes have also been painted gold rather than using the old terrible [[sticker]] across the bridge of his nose. His [[rubsign]] is an all-new type used on all of the ''Vintage G1'' toys; the insignia only turns red rather than the mood-ring multicolor of older rubsigns, plus the silver border is mirror-level reflective.

[[File:G2SSJungleprotojet.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb]]
*A hand-painted mock-up and accompanying artwork for what seems to have been a proposed ''Generation 2''-era redeco of Starscream appeared in auctions on [[eBay]], amongst similar items put up for sale from the collection of a former [[Hasbro]] employee. The mock-up features the words "Black Death" on its nosecone, which would probably lead fans to refer to the figure as "Black Death Starscream" if anyone were aware of it existing.
**Somewhat confusingly, there appear to be two different pieces of artwork related to this redeco concept: one is simply a palette-swapped version of Starscream's [[:File:G2StarscreamPackageArt.jpg|''Generation 2'' artwork]] (down to having exactly the same color stickers), while the other features numerous alterations, among them new foot, knee, and shoulder intake detailing, differently positioned wings, and the missile launchers included with the ''Generation 2'' releases of Starscream and [[Ramjet (G1)/toys|Ramjet]]. Though unconfirmed, it is thought that the second piece of artwork was meant to go with the final release.
**Speaking of the final release: in 2012, it was revealed that "Black Death Starscream" was ''much'' further along in production than the fandom had previously suspected when a sticker-less test shot was discovered on the Chinese auction site TaoBao (from a seller also possessing loose ''Generation 2'' [[Stunticon (G1)|Stunticons]], [[Protectobot (G1)|Protectobots]], and a production-colors [[Sandstorm (G2)|Sandstorm]]). The test-shot differs from the package art and mock-up by possessing black missiles instead of blue ones and having no Decepticon symbols on the rear stabilizers (although it's possible those were meant to be stickers).
**The actuality of the figure being intended as Starscream is uncertain. In fact, the "desert" redeco of Ramjet discovered at the same time has been revealed as having been intended as [[Sandstorm (G2)|a separate new character]] and not an alternate version of Ramjet as had been assumed. It very well may be that this toy was likewise intended as a new character with the working name "Black Death," and not Starscream at all, but without confirmation of this it may as well remain listed here.
*A second unproduced redeco of Starscream for the ''Generation 2'' line was found in 2007, also in an auction on eBay. It is known to the fandom as "Jungle Attack Starscream", although just as with "Black Death Starscream", it is unclear if it was intended to actually be another Starscream toy.

The Masterforce Seacons are drones, have different names, never appear in robot mode, etc etc etc. Turtuler is not Snaptrap.

Move to create an article ''Seacons (Masterforce)'' to cover these guys. (probably all in 1 article, as they're non-entities ez Turtular.)

*'''Bumblebee''' (Mini Vehicle, 1984~1986)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''11''', '''C-56'''

:Bumblebee's original toy, released in 1984 and in Japan in 1985, originally hails from the ''[[Micro Change]]'' series, transforming into a "penny-racer"-proportioned Volkswagen Beetle. He was available through the first three years of the ''Transformers'' series, the entire duration of the [[Mini Vehicle]] assortment, the only 1984 Mini Vehicle to do so.

:'Bee has a lot of minor variations. Throughout 1984 and 1985, Bumblebee was produced in both yellow and red (as was [[Cliffjumper (G1)/toys|Cliffjumper]]), a move meant to "make the line look bigger" according to former [[Hasbro]] R&D Vice President [[George Dunsay]].<ref name="dunsay">[http://www.tfarchive.com/fandom/interviews/george_dunsay/george_dunsay_interview.php Interview with George Dunsay at TFArchive.com]</ref> For his 1984 release, both color versions had an Autobot sigil on the roof/chest. In 1985, this was replaced by a [[rubsign]]. The rubsign remained on the 1986 release, though he was only released in yellow that year.

:Packaging-wise, there are several more variations. In 1984, the Mini Vehicles were packaged in vehicle mode. Come 1985, a picture of the toy in vehicle mode was added to the front of the card, and ''later'' the toys proper were packaged in robot mode. From this point on, the Mini Vehicles were also part of two different pack-in promotions; the [[Mini-spy|Mini-Spies]] and iron-on reflective patches.

: For his 1985 Japanese release, Bumblebee came in a small box rather than on a card. He was available in both red and yellow, both versions having the rubsign rather than the foil faction symbol. He was also released in the 1986 assortment, but only in yellow. This is why he has two ID numbers in Japan; in 1986, the line switched from a single-series number listing to splitting it up between "C" (Cybertron/Autobot) and "D" (Destron/Decepticon) groupings.

: Bumblebee was released in a wide variety of colors in markets south of the border, which will be covered in separate entries below (as to not make this entry unreadably long; there's a ''ton'' of variants and more keep popping up!).

:This mold was later [[retool]]ed into a [[#Keychain|keychain version of Bumblebee]], as well as for a [[#TFCollection|''Transformers Collection'' multipack]] (see below).

:The original mold is also used by the [[Optimus (faction)|Optimus-faction]] [[Volks (G1)|Volks]]. Later [[retool]]ings of this mold were used to make [[Glyph (Universe)#Toys|Glyph]] and [[Bug Bite (GoBots)#Toys|Bug Bite]].

{{-}}{{anchor|Mexican}}
*'''Bumblebee''' (Mini Vehicle, 1985)

: When he was released in Mexico by [[IGA]], Bumblebee came in a wide variety of colors: both the original red and yellow, as well as blue, silver, and white. The silver and white versions are particularly notable (and significantly rarer), as they have red-painted faces. The sticker on the back of Mexican Bumblebee's head is also slightly different from the Hasbro/Takara release, being the same general design, but smaller and with thicker, simpler lines.

: Years later, large numbers of Mexican Transformers somehow made it to various European markets.

[[File:G1toy silver volks.jpg|thumb|''"Eu vou a pé eu vou de fusca / Eu vou em busca de um amor..."''|upright=1.67]]
*'''Volks''' (Robocar, 1985)

: Bumblebee was released in Brazil by [[Estrela]] in 1985 as the Robocar "Volks", initially available in two color schemes: his original yellow and black, and slick-looking silver and black with a gold face, both decorated with a new thin tech-detailing sticker on their chests based on the original ''[[Micro Change]]'' decals. The design of the sticker on the back of his head was also changed to a more complex grid pattern. The raised "DUNLOP" branding on the tires was also removed.

: Later, Estrela released red and orange versions of Volks sporting the new "[[Optimus (faction)|Optimus]]" faction insignia; given this new factional alignment, for the purposes of this wiki, the Optimus-aligned Volks is considered a [[Volks (G1)|separate character]] from Bumblebee.

[[File:AntexVolks.jpg|thumb|''"... Eu vou a pé vou de fusca / Aonde tem amor eu vou!"''|upright=1.66]]
*'''Volks''' (Robocar, 1985)

: The aforementioned red and orange versions of Volks were released in Argentina by [[Antex]] in 1985, both sporting the Estrela stickers and "DUNLOP"-less tires. Later releases of the orange version have been found with different paper stickers: the one on his chest/roof being one that was originally applied to [[Salt-Man Z]]'s groin. (The back-of-the-head decal was ''probably'' also changed, but right know we don't know for sure.)

: The card's toy photogrpahy depicts the Estrela yellow and silver versions, but it is believed this was merely a holdover from the Estrela-designed packaging, and that neither coloration was never sold in Argentina.

: These toys are more readily available on the secondary market than their Estrela predecessors. They also have lower quality control.

{{-}}{{anchor|Rubiplas}}
*'''Bumblebee''' (Mini Vehicle, 1985)

: As far as foreign Mini Vehicle variants go, the Venezuelan release of Bumblebee by [[Rubiplas]] is pretty tame. He came in both the Hasbro yellow and red versions, and retains the Hasbro stickers. However, his head lacks both the silver paint on his face, and the [[Vacuum metallizing|chrome silver]] on the "plate" part of the head, leaving it as black plastic.

{{-}}{{anchor|Lynsa}}
*'''Bumblebee''' (Mini Vehicle, 1986)

: Manufactured by Argentinean company [[Lynsa]] but sold in Peru, this version of Bumblebee is similar to the Rubiplas release, lacking any paint or chrome, but this version also has plastic tires instead of rubber. So far, three different colorations have been confirmed: the original yellow-and-black, red-and-black, and peachy-orange-and-black. It is claimed that there may be ''six'' different versions of Peruvian Bumblebee all told, with the three others being unique to that market, but no-one has been able to find and confirm the others so far.

{{note|Peruvian company BASA (which eventually changed to HUDE) apparently also (briefly) sold ''Transformers'' in Peru, but these were straight imports of Hasbro Mini Vehicles with a company sticker applied to the packaging.}}

[[File:Goldbugg1toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Older, squatter, faster.]]
*'''Goldbug''' (Throttlebot, 1987)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''C-97'''

:The [[Throttlebot]] Goldbug was released in 1987, and like the other Throttlebots, he has a pull-back motor and a simple transformation. The vehicle mode was not designed to look like a penny racer, as the original toy was, so its variation on the Volkswagen Beetle was much more realistically-proportioned. Though the other Throttlebots seem to have always been intended to be new characters, Goldbug's head was based directly on that of Bumblebee's original toy. Bumblebee was the second Transformer to be given a second toy (as both [[Hot Rod (G1)/toys|Hot Rod]] and Rodimus Prime had been released the year previous).

:This toy was reissued in Europe in 1991 as part of the [[Classics (Europe)|Classics]] reissues, along with the rest of the Throttlebots. It was [[retool]]ed to remove the [[rubsign]] indent, the heat-sensitive decal proper replaced with a glossy-paper faction symbol. Ironically enough, he doesn't suffer from [[Gold Plastic Syndrome|gold plastic syndrome]], given his plastic is not swirly or even particularly brittle despite being gold.

:This toy also doubles as the ''[[Beast Wars: Uprising]]'' incarnation of [[Goldbug (IDW)|Goldbug]].

*'''Bumblebee''' (Pretender, 1989)
**''Accessories'': Pretender shell, helmet, large "sonic blaster" rifle, small "laser pistol"

:As part of the sixth year of Generation 1, Bumblebee was released as a "[[Classic Pretender]]", expanding the range of [[Pretender]]s toys. This version of Bumblebee is still a Volkswagen Beetle, but now has what look like off-road tires. His vehicle mode has a realistically-proportioned front end, but the cab area is more relatively compact than on the Goldbug toy (though not quite as deformed as the original Bumblebee). He came with a gun for his robot mode that could be mounted on his roof and another gun for his human shell. Oddly, the robot's head is modeled after [[Cliffjumper (G1)/toys|Cliffjumper's]] toy head.

:In Italy, [[GiG]] released their own version of the Hero Set, named "Set Commandos", instead of the Classic Pretender versions of the toys. Bumblebee was given the name "Saetta", which was originally the Italian name of [[Wheeljack (G1)/toys|Wheeljack]]. The "Set Commandos" toys were identical to the Japanese "Hero Set" versions.

He comes with his [[Heli-pack]] that transforms into a large "high-powered air rifle" with spring-loaded deploying barrel. Bumblebee and his Heli-pack are cross-compatible with any other Action Master figure, vehicle or accessory; plus the hole in his back is compatible with [[5mm post]]s.

:Bumblebee was reissued as a keychain by [[Fun4All]] under license from [[Hasbro]] in the US in 2001. Along with having its rear bumper [[retool]]ed to accommodate the chain, the keychain form lacked the "Dunlop" text on the tires. The toy also returned to its original sticker set-up, doing away with the rubsign and restored the Autobot symbol on his chest. Hasbro made the figure available again in 2007, this time under the "[[Heroes of Cybertron]]" banner.

:In Japan, all four Mini-Bot keychains were released in Japan in 2003 as [[7-Eleven]] [[exclusive]]s. Each of the keychains also had black "[[Chase figure|chase]]" versions. The black deco was later [[Repurposing|repurposed]] as [[Black Bumble|an evil clone]] of Bumblebee.

:Bumblebee's first ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' toy was a [[redeco]] of his original toy, transforming into a "Penny Racer"-proportioned Volkswagen Beetle. However, this version has yellow chrome on the previously matte-yellow plastics. Thankfully, there seem to be few to no reports of chrome flaking on any of the ''Generation 2'' Mini Vehicles.

:The figure pictured here features a G1 Autobot [[Insignia]] on his chest/roof, but this is nonstandard. The figure as released featured a bare chest/roof. The only symbol on the figure is the G2 Autobot Insignia stamped on the bottom of his foot followed by the word Autobot.

*'''Minibot Team Set''' (6-pack, 2004)
**''Japanese ID number'': '''12'''

:"Bumble" was again reissued in Japan as part of ''[[The Transformers Collection]]'' "bookbox" series in a six-toy multi-pack, with [[Huffer (G1)#The Transformers Collection|Drag]], [[Cosmos (G1)#The Transformers Collection|Adams]], [[Gears (G1)#The Transformers Collection|Gears]], [[Powerglide (G1)/toys#The Transformers Collection|Powerglide]], and [[Warpath (G1)/toys#The Transformers Collection|Warpath]]. This time around, Bumblebee was [[retool|retooled]]to have a new [[Show-accuracy|cartoon-accurate]] head. Additionally, this version of the figure gave Bumblebee both an Autobot symbol ''and'' a rubsign, keeping the former in its traditional placement on his chest, and relocating the rubsign to the back of his head, replacing the original tech-detailing sticker that had previously been there.

:The entire set was redecoed to make the [[G1 GoBots|"G1 GoBots"]] set; this version of Bumblebee became [[Bug Bite (GoBots)#Toys|Bug Bite]].

===Alternators/Binaltech===
[[File:AlternatorsBumblebeeDesign.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66]]

: One of the earliest proposals in the ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators/Binaltech]]'' line was for Bumblebee as a Volkswagen New Beetle, with [[Cliffjumper (G1)/toys#Alternators/Binaltech|Cliffjumper]] as the redeco. Unfortunately, VW evidently did not want to be associated with "war toys" [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|at that time]], and therefore the design never made it past the control drawing stage. Control drawings for both Bumblebee and Cliffjumper have been published in the Japanese ''[[The Transformers: Binaltech & TF Collection Complete Guide]]'' book. The design did, however, end up appearing fictionally as Bumblebee's form in the "[[Descent into Evil]]" comic.

An alternate head of Cliffjumper was seen as well, indicating a retool. Unfortunately these never made it into production.

*'''Bumblebee''' (Deluxe, 2006)
**''Accessories:'' Wave Crusher trailer/backpack

:The Deluxe ''[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]'' Bumblebee transforms into a yellow hatchback sports car (labeled as a "cruiser" on the package) that's basically Hasbro's typical cross between several existing car models: The general shape of the car is based on a heavily customized one-of-a-kind 1992-1995 {{w|Honda Civic (fifth generation)|fifth generation Honda Civic hatchback}} with lots of aftermarket "ricer" add-ons (such as a large front bumper, large fenders and a large rear wing).<ref name="ricercivic">[http://www.tuningfever.fr/fr/pics/gal-1596-stephan/pic-33883-honda-civic.php Photos of a "ricer" 1992-1995 Honda Civic], photos taken from an eBay auction posted before September 2005.</ref> The front section takes some design cues from various models of the {{w|Subaru Impreza WRX}}, namely the hood vent present on all models, the front grille of the 2004-05 WRX and the headlights and the midsection of the front bumper from the 2006-07 WRX STi.<ref name="wrxsti06">[http://www.insideline.com/subaru/impreza-wrx/2006/first-drive-2006-subaru-impreza-wrx-and-wrx-sti.html 2006-2007 Subaru WRX STi], officially unveiled in September 2005.</ref> The shape of the rear fenders is also vaguely inspired by the {{w|Volkswagen New Beetle}}.

:Bumblebee comes with a single accessory, a jet ski called "[[Wave Crusher]]" on a trailer. This is a bit similar than his Action Master toy's transforming heli-pack. His robot mode is designed to look like a typical teenager, dressed in a hoodie with pockets and wearing big chunky trainers.<ref>[http://pingmag.jp/2007/06/29/transformers/ Interview] with [[Alex Kubalsky]]</ref> He is articulated with ball joints at the head, shoulders, elbows, hips, and has hinge knees. Wave Crusher converts into a [[jet pack]] that mounts onto his back.

:Later versions [[retool]]ed the area the [[rubsign]] rests on to be larger.

:This retooled version of this mold was also used to make ''Classics'' [[Bug Bite (GoBots)|Bug Bite]], [[Cliffjumper (G1)/toys#Classics|Cliffjumper]], and [[Glyph_(Universe)#United|''United'' Glyph]], which remains unreleased.

While the ''Movie'' and ''Animated'' Bumblebees are identical to their original, single carded releases, the ''Classics'' Bumblebee has been redecoed to more closely resemble his ''Movie'' and ''Animated'' counterparts, changing his white stripes to black, his gray/silver plastic to yellow (similarly to ''Henkei! Henkei!'' Bumble, see immediately below), and the clear parts from a very faint blue-ish tint to deeply saturated clear blue plastic. In addition, the shoulder straps are no longer painted yellow, instead showing the clear blue plastic they are cast in; the head is no longer be painted over in yellow, due to the change of the plastic color from gray to yellow; and the [[Wave Crusher]] replaces the white paint with black paint for the upper half and an unpainted yellow lower half, and the orange stripe with a yellow one.

**''Accessories:'' Wave Crusher trailer/backpack

:''[[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (toyline)|Henkei! Henkei!]]'' Bumblebee is a redeco of [[#Classics|''Classics'' Bumblebee.]] Bumblebee swaps some of his black plastic for dark gray, and his light gray plastic for yellow. His yellow plastic is almost entirely covered in yellow paint to deal with the common problem of yellow plastic being near-translucent against darker plastics and the inconsistency between bare plastic parts and painted clear parts. His eyes are painted blue despite being molded in translucent plastic. As with all ''Henkei'' toys, he lacks the ''Classics'' heat-sensitive rubsign, but has some [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metallized]] parts: his hood-mounted scoop and his spoiler.

:The ''[[Transformers Encore]]'' series of reissues featured a set similar to the 2004 ''The Transformers Collection'' Minibots set; this time, rather than a mix of 1984 and 1985 Mini-Vehicles, it included mostly figures from 1986 plus Bumblebee (whose original toy had still shipped in 1986), bundling him with [[Outback (G1)#Encore|Outback]], [[Pipes (G1)#Encore|Pipes]], [[Swerve (G1)#Encore|Swerve]], and [[Tailgate (G1)#Encore|Tailgate]].

*'''Bumblebee''' (Legends, 2008)

:''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'' Legends class Bumblebee has a vehicle mode that is something of an amalgamation of the vehicle forms recent Bumblebees have adopted. While he forms a modern hatchback like the ''Classics'' Bumblebee and ''Animated'' Bumblebee toys, the more aggressive design with large flared wheel arches, and small windows evoke the look of the [[Transformers (film)|live-action movie]] version of [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]]. He transforms similarly to, but not exactly the same as, his [[#Generation 1|Generation 1 toy]].

:Care must be taken while rolling the vehicle: pushing down while moving the vehicle forward can chip the paint underneath the hip section.

:This mold was redecoed into ''Henkei! Henkei!'' [[Cliffjumper (G1)/toys#Henkei! Henkei!|Cliffjumper]], [[#Transformers (2010)|''Transformers'' "Gold Bumblebee"]], and ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' Cybertronian [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#BeeStarscream|Bumblebee]] from the Bumblebee/Starscream [[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]] four-pack.

:The [[prototype|sample]] used for Hasbro's official [[stock photography|stock photos]] sported unpainted gold legs, but the final toy has the legs painted over in blue. So far, no gold-legged specimens have been found in the wild. Conversely, the vehicle mode stock photo on the back of his packaging implies that the ''entire'' leg pieces (or at least his ankle joints) have been painted blue, as there are two very obvious blue patches on his hood.

:Part of the first wave of ''[[Transformers United|United]]'' product, Bumblebee is a [[redeco]] of the [[Bumblebee (WFC)/toys#Toys|''War for Cybertron'' Bumblebee toy]], transforming into a "[[Cybertronian courier]]." He comes with a handgun and features two wrist-mounted flip-out blades. The handgun can be stored inside his rear bumper in either robot or vehicle mode. Like the original mold, His legs are generally loose at the mid-thigh joint due to being used for transformation.

:TakaraTomy's release features an extensive metallic paint job on the car mode panels as well as some of the robot's parts (such as the head and forearms). In addition to some painted detail differences from the Hasbro release, United Bumblebee features a lighter gray as well as a brighter pink than the Hasbro version.

:Another redeco of the ''Classics'' Deluxe toy, ''United'' Bumblebee is painted mainly in chromed golden yellow with silver bumpers. He was sold alongside his Cybertron Mode (see above) in the first assortment of ''United'' product.

:While very similar in appearance, this version of Bumblebee is cast in a lighter yellow plastic than the ''Henkei'' release, with most of his car mode parts (along with his robot mode head and forearms) painted over in gold. As noted above, he also features a silver front bumper and other painted details different from his previous TakaraTomy release.

:Unfortunately, because he is packaged in robot mode and his vehicle shell is entirely coated in paint, quite a number of Bumblebees have the gold paint between their jointed leg/hood panels and feet scratched off ''out of the box'', resulting in ugly scored lines on the hood in vehicle mode.

Nice. His face tampograph is new, but his torso uses the "Class of '84" deco.

: The set comes with two bags of Kre-O parts, one coming from the first-year large Bumblebee (mostly all the small bits and the now-useless neck joint), the other "new" with some basic bricks and plates, as well as a set of axles, rims and tires. The set has no instructions, as it's just a box of bricks to makes whatever with.

He transforms from an Earth-style car into a robot styled after [[Andrew Griffith]]'s design for the character in [[IDW Publishing|IDW]]'s ''[[The Transformers: Robots in Disguise|Robots in Disguise]]'' (which is in turn modified from ''[[Transformers: War for Cybertron (games)|War for Cybertron]]'' [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]]), and features [[5mm post|5mm-compatible]] front wheels, back/roof, and hands.

:He comes with [[Blaze Master#Generations|Blazemaster]], who can transform into a helicopter, a robot with [[C joint|3mm-compatible]] hands, and a weapon with a 5mm handle. In weapon mode, his rotors detach and mount onto Bumblebee's forearm wheel peg-holes.

:There are two packaging [[variant]]s of this two-pack: One version (which is also reflected by the official [[stock photography|stock photo]] of the toy in packaging) features the same layout for the cardboard name insert as its [[wave]]mate [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Legends|Optimus Prime]] & [[Roller (G1)#Generations|Autobot Roller]], while the other version has various texts and logos rearranged and relocated, and is lacking both the difficulty level and the [[Hasbro]] company logo.<ref name="genvar">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/generations-classics-44/generations-legends-bumblebee-with-blazemaster-packaging-variant-177748/ Comparison] between both variants of ''Generations'' Bumblebee & Blaze Master's packaging</ref>

:Part of the fifth wave of 2012-onwards ''Generations'' Deluxe Class toys, this ''Thrilling 30'' Bumblebee is a new mold with a robot mode based on the character's body from IDW's ''[[The Transformers (IDW)|The Transformers]]'' ongoing series; more specifically, it is the version used by [[Guido Guidi]] in [[Space Opera—Final Tableaux: Orphans of the Helix|issue #21]]. He transforms into a muscle car that resembles a fifth generation [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes#Ford Mustang|Ford Mustang]], and comes with two "stinger blasters" which peg via 5mm post into his hands, forearms, and rear vehicle sides, and can also combine into a large weapon.

:The American release is packed in with a copy of ''[[The Question|Spotlight: Bumblebee]]'', with a cropped version of the [[Clayton Crain]] RI cover that is called out as a '[[Hasbro]] Exclusive Cover'. In European and Canadian markets the figure is packed without the comic.

:For some reason, Hasbro's official [[stock photography|stock photos]] provided to retailers which depict a [[prototype|(pre-)production sample]], including a photo of the toy in [[packaging]], feature a Bumblebee that lacks the [[paint operation|painted]] stripes on the [[kibble#"Faux-parts"|fake]] car hood on his robot mode chest. The same applied to the packaged sample on display at [[BotCon 2013]]. Fortunately, the final toy sports the stripes after all. For their own official website, Hasbro remedied this with a new set of stock photos that are more representative of the final product... which were later replaced with the inaccurate photos.

The figure's transformation engineering takes cues from the ''Prime'' Cyberverse Bumblebee figure. Bumblebee also features 5mm-compatible hands.

:Like every Cyber Series figures, Bumblebee was available in limited quantities from online retailer BigBadToyStore.com, initially not hitting mass retail anywhere besides Asia and Latin America. However, alongside Starscream and Optimus Prime, it eventually saw a limited release in the Universal Studios Theme Park, and was later widely available as a Walgreens exclusive.

**''Accessories'': Blaster, rear-view mirrors, [[Spike_Witwicky_(G1)/Generation_1_cartoon_continuity|Spike Witwicky]] (Exosuit), spare tire cover, license plate, neutral face, smiling face

:This Hasbro version of [[#Masterpiece 2|''Masterpiece'' MP-21 Bumblebee]] is virtually unchanged from its Takara counterpart. All accessories included with the MP-21 version (minus the retailer-exclusive battle mask) are present in this release. Unlike the Takara version which (confusingly) identifies the Exosuit figure as Spike or Daniel, this version identifies him as just Spike.

:Oddly, the instruction manual and package has a couple quirks—first, stock photos of Bumblebee's robot mode show his hood vent flap exposed and his backpack untransformed, where the flap should be tucked into its compartment in his pelvis and the backpack rotated, then the bumper folded in. The instructions also show this, but it shows the steps for tucking in the flap and transforming the backpack. Second, the instructions for the swappable face gimmick has two errors: The regular face is shown twice instead of the smiling face being swapped, and the battle mask is shown in the instructions, despite not being included with the actual toy.

*'''Bumblebee''' (Legends Class, 2016)
:''[[Titans Return (toyline)|Titans Return]]'' Bumblebee is a new Legends Class mold who transforms from a robot to car, with a vehicle mode based on his alt mode in ''[[Transformers: Earth Wars]]''. As with some of the ''Titans Return'' Legends Class figures, Bumblebee features an opening canopy for his cockpit, which allows any Titan Master figures to ride inside him. He also features 5mm-compatible hands, although the yellow piece can prevent any weapon's slightly longer posts to peg down through his hands. Also, take note that the vehicle back wings/shoulder kibble can sometimes block the way for wielding weapons; however the shoulder parts can be swapped for better tolerance, but prevents him from fully transforming into vehicle mode. Oddly, his molded license plate reads "100 STRA" which is a variation of his movie counterpart's "900 STRA" plate.

:Although the instructions tell [[you]] to immediately swing down the chest/vehicle roof to his shoulders/vehicle rear, you have to give a slight opening gap on the shoulder parts in vehicle form before you swing the roof piece down, and squeeze the shoulders against the piece properly until it clicks (make sure the rear vehicle's pegs and the shoulder's rectangle holes are in place first). Take note that where the tail-end of the chest/roof piece connects is prone to paint chipping due to the poor tolerance of the fold-able vehicle rear piece.

:This mold was also used to make [[Chase (G1)#Generations|Roadburn]].

He also lacks the two shoulder-mounted launchers as well as his rear wheel wells and spoiler attachments, making his vehicle mode appear much smaller. He swaps out his dual longswords for the fork blade originally included with Optimus Prime.

This weapon can either be plugged via 5mm post on his roof/back or held in hand. As with all other ''MechTech'' Deluxe weapon accessories, the converted weapon cannot lock into place.

: The two-pack was one of the three Evolution 2-packs available as a Toys"R"Us exclusive in Japan, with no changes on the figures with an exception of the packaging, which the front box features Japanese translated versions of the English text, and a sticker on the back confirming that this was a Japanese release.

:Another release of the 2014 ''Universe'' sculpt. The deco is a hybrid between the [[Toys"R"Us]] exclusive ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' Cybertronian [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#BeeStarscream|Bumblebee]] release of the sculpt and the ''Transformers'' release from 2012: The Autobot insignia is placed on the chest/roof again (like on the ''Dark of the Moon'' version), but the "running boards" on the sides of the vehicle mode are still unpainted (like on the 2012 release). Bizarrely, the [[package art]] is lifted directly from the ''Generations'' Legends Class Bumblebee/Blazemaster two-pack's packaging, whereas the [[stock photography|stock photos]] depicted on the back of the packaging are taken from ''Universe'' Bumblebee's packaging and only slightly altered, sporting a highly inaccurate deco and even advertising a "[[Reveal the Shield]]" [[rubsign]] [[gimmick]] the toy doesn't actually have. Meanwhile, Hasbro's official stock photos provided to online retailers (including an in-packaging photo) depict the sculpt's 2012 release's deco.
:[[File:Transformers-2014-Legion-Class-Bumblebee-packaging-variants.jpg|left|200px|thumb|left|2014 packaging left, 2015 packaging right.]]
:Legion Class Bumblebee has been found at Family Dollar and Dollar General stores in the United States. A later [[variant]] repleaced the red Autobot insignia with a black version. This later version was also released at general retail in Australia, New Zealand, and Europe. In addition, the version with a black insignia was later re-released in 2015, this time in packaging mimicking the then-current ''Generations'' packaging design, but replacing the name "Generations" with "Authentic Transformers". It was also given a new Hasbro product code number and UPC barcode, thereby technically making it a separate product. In 2017, it was re-released ''again'', this time in a minor variant of the 2014 version's packaging (including the original product code number and barcode) that now lacked the reference to the non-existing "Reveal the Shield" gimmick.

:Like [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Transformers (2014)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Transformers (2014)|Starscream]], the Black Insignia variant of the toy ended up being dumped to some hobby shop dealers in Asia.

*'''Bumblebee''' (2014)

: A special edition [[Bearbrick]] released in celebration of the ''Transformers'' 30th anniversary, Bumblebee is a [[retool]] of the Bearbrick [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Bearbrick|Optimus Prime]]/[[Megatron (G1)/toys#Bearbrick|Megatron]] mold with a new chest and head, transforming from a Bearbrick painted up like himself to a bear-eared robot. He has no accessories, but holes in his robot mode hands can accommodate other toys' weapons.

: The chest used for this mold was also used to make the simultaneously released Bearbrick [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Bearbrick|Starscream]].

*'''Bumble''' (2014-[[November 29|11-29]])
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MP-21'''
**''Accessories'': "Laser Gun" pistol, rear-view mirrors, [[Exosuit]], spare tyre cover, license plate, neutral face, smiling face, "Battle Face" ([[Amazon (website)|Amazon.jp]] exclusive)

:''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' Bumble transforms into an officially-licensed Volkswagen Type 1 Beetle. As with other figures in the ''Masterpiece'' line, he is intended to be an accurate representation of his cartoon model. Roughly as tall as a [[Size class|Deluxe Class]] figure, he is also in [[scale]] with [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#mp10|MP-10 Optimus Prime]] in robot mode (making his car mode very out of proportions with the other ''Masterpiece'' cars), and can fit inside [[Combat Deck (G1)#mp10|Prime's trailer]] in vehicle mode. In contrast to larger entries in this line, Bumblebee lacks [[die-cast]] parts, and his tires are cast in hard, non-rubberized plastic. Additionally, following the trend started with [[Wheeljack (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Wheeljack]], his side mirrors come detached out of the box, and can be found separately packaged inside the instruction bag. Accurate to the real-life Type 1 Beetle, he only has one mirror, on the driver's side; an extra is included in case of loss or breakage.

:For accessories, he comes with his gun (called ''Lazer Gun'' {{sic}} in the instructions), a second interchangeable face with [[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys#Armada|an open-mouth smile]] to replace his regular neutral face, and a spare tire cover that can be plugged on the rear of his vehicle mode by pulling away the license plate, which then fits inside the cover. The cover mounts on his back in robot mode; indeed, it only ''exists'' in order to replicate the large yellow circle on the back of Bumblebee's [[character model]], a visual adaptation of some molded circular detail on his original toy. Illustrating its non-essential vehicle mode role, it can also be stored out of view on the car's underside.

:To make up for the smaller size of Bumblebee when compared to other figures in the Masterpiece line (and to keep up with the price tag), MP-21 comes with an Exosuit figure, which can transform into its vehicle mode as seen in Transformers: The Movie. The figure itself is referred to only as "Exosuit" on the instruction book, but according to the lineart included in ''[[The Transformers Masterpiece Official Guide]]'' it's supposed to be [[Daniel Witwicky (G1)#Masterpiece|Daniel Witwicky]], though the back of the box refers to it as Spike.

:If purchased in Japan through [[Amazon (website)|Amazon.jp]], one additionaly gets an interchangeable "Battle Face" based on the original G1 toy's one. If purchased in other Asian markets outside of Japan, a collector's coin is included instead of or in addition to the face. The coin package is shaped like his head, and identifies him as "Bumblebee Autobot".

*'''Bumble G-2 Ver.''' (2015-07)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MP-21G'''
**''Accessories'': Laser gun, spare left-side rearview mirror, 3-piece jetpack, spare tire cover, "normal" and "smile" extra faces

:A redeco of ''Masterpiece'' Bumble in shiny ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' gold, this version does not come with an Exosuit figure. Instead, he comes with a three-piece jetpack, as worn by Bumblebee in the cartoon episode "[[Dinobot Island, Part 1]]". The toy-inspired "battle face" from the normal version's Amazon Japan special release is included as the default face, along with the two cartoon-based faces from the original release.

: He also comes with an extra [[sticker|sticker sheet]] for customization. The sheet includes both Generation 1 and ''Generation 2'' style Autobot insignias in two different sizes, two yellow ''Generation 2'' style "AUTOBOT" logos (as was stamped on the original toys), ''180 Deceps'' and ''I♥Cybertron'' (from his appearance in the [[The Planet-Eater!|Marvel Comics adaptation of ''Transformers: The Movie'']]), and the "'''I♥NY'''" license plate decal as seen in the episode "[[City of Steel (episode)|City of Steel]]".

:The non-Japanese Asian market version came with a special collector's coin. The coin package is once again shaped like Bumblebee's head (with the "battle face" faceplate on the front), but actually identifies him as Goldbug. Go figure.

: This toy was released by Hasbro [[#Masterpiece|under ''Generations'' co-branding]].

:Another redeco of ''Masterpiece'' Bumble, in red colors (based on his original G1 toy variant) and chromed bumpers. ''Masterpiece'' Bumble Red Body was released as a Cybertron Satellite exclusive.

:As usual, the non-Japanese Asian market version came with a special collector's coin. This time, the package is shaped like the Beetle's front hood, and the coin identifies him as "Bumblebee Red Boby" {{sic}}

:''[[Q-Transformers]]'' Bumble transforms from a licensed [[super deformed]] Daihatsu Copen to a cute little robot. In spite of his new vehicle mode, molded detail on his feet still evoke the traditional Volkswagen Beetle hood. He comes with a code for unlocking Generation 1 Bumblebee as a playable character in the ''[[Q-Transformers: Mystery of Convoy Returns (mobile game)|Q-Transformers: Mystery of Convoy Returns]]'' game.

:Bumblebee was retooled into ''Q-Transformers'' [[Cliffjumper (G1)/toys#Q-Transformers|Cliff]].

:''[[Transformers Legends (franchise)|Legends]]'' Bumble is an extensive redeco of the [[#Titans Return|''Titans Return'' Legends Class figure]], with most of the yellow parts now recast in transparent plastic with yellow paint applied. This allows his windows to be transparent.

:Bumble comes with [[Spike Witwicky (G1)#Legends|Excelsuit Spike]].

**''Accessories'' display stand, swappable display cards

[[File:INFOBAR-Bumblebee.jpg|thumb|... some joke about a bee-line.]]
:Released in conjunction with Japanese cellphone maker au<ref>[http://www.takaratomy.co.jp/product_release/pdf/p170201.pdf TakaraTomy au x Transformers Project press release]</ref>, ''au x Transformers'' INFOBAR Bumblebee is a remold of the same line's [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#au x Transformers|INFOBAR Optimus Prime]], with a new head and decoed in black and yellow.

:The INFOBAR figures celebrate 15 years since the 2002 au Design Project that resulted in the INFOBAR cellphone, as well as the 10th anniversary of the [[Live-action film series|live-action films]]. He transforms into a (non-functional) scaled-down replica of the 2002 au INFOBAR, and in lieu of cellphone functions, the figure can be paired via Bluetooth with a smartphone, such as an iPhone, to act as a notification alarm in either robot or INFOBAR mode. The screen is also non-functional, but pre-printed cards are included which can be slid into the screen to show an Autobot logo, Decepticon logo, a mockup of a cellphone home screen, or a technical "Transformers INFOBAR" design. The figure also includes a display stand.

:The project was crowdfunded through Japanese crowdfunding site Makuake<ref>[http://news.tfw2005.com/2017/01/31/transformers-x-au-transforming-phones-launch-crowdfunding-campaign-332289 Transformers x au Transforming Phones Launch Crowdfunding Campaign at TFW2005.com]</ref>. Both Bumblebee and Megatron could only be obtained by contributing 16,2000 yen to the project to receive a package of all three INFOBAR figures; at the 5,400 yen level, contributors received only INFOBAR Optimus Prime. The project received one million yen in the first 24 hours, ultimately topping out at over 32 million yen.

:This figure was differently remolded, with another head, and redecoed into [[Megatron (G1)/toys#au x Transformers|INFOBAR Megatron]].

*'''Autobot Bumblebee''' (5 Inch, 2017)
:Released in the first wave of the [[Transformers Authentics|''Authentics'']] toyline, "Autobot Bumblebee" is a new mold the size of a 2015 [[Transformers:_Robots_in_Disguise_(2015_toyline)#Mini-Con_Battle_Packs|''Robots in Disguise'' Battle Pack]] toy. In just four steps, he changes from an [[evergreen]]-inspired robot into a car reminiscent of his [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#Classics|''Classics'']] iteration, and he features ''very'' limited articulation consisting of his head and his shoulders.

*'''Autobot Bumblebee''' (7 Inch, 2017)
:Around the height of the average Voyager figure, "Autobot Bumblebee" is nigh-identical to his smaller equivalent. He features the same four-step transformation, while adding some sideways-oriented elbows and additional paint. His legs are stiff as ever.

{{-}}{{anchor|Super20inch}}
*'''Super Bumblebee''' (20 Inch, 2018)
:4 inches below the size of a Titan Class figure, "Super Bumblebee" is a retool of another [[Bumblebee (WFC)/toys#Super Class|Super Bumblebee]] toy from the ''Robots in Disguise (2015)'' line, with a new upper body and a head with the arms, legs & vehicle body remain unchanged. He is packed with 15 sounds and phrases that activate when his [[Autobot]] symbol is pushed on his chest. He transforms in 3 steps.

===Vintage G1===
[[File:Walmart-Vintage-G1-Bumblebee.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Sweet boy will outlive us, mere mortals, with periodical re-releases on a per decade basis. As it should be.]]
*'''Bumblebee''' ("Legion Class" reissue, 2018)

: Part of the first (and so far only) wave of the "[[Vintage G1]]" line, Bumblebee is a seemingly straight reissue of the ''Encore'' Bumble, using the newly tooled head utilized for ''[[Bumblebee_(G1)/toys#The_Transformers_Collection|The Transformers Collection]]'' and the ''[[Bumblebee_(G1)/toys#Encore|Encore]]'' release, as well as the ''Encore'' version's improved deco. Despite this, card still displays the original toy-based package art. Of particular note is that this is the first ever release of this figure that's identified on its packaging as being an "official licensed product" approved by Volkswagen.

:Like all ''Vintage G1'' figures, Bumblebee was [[exclusive]] to [[Walmart]] in the United States and Canada. He was also available at general retail in Hong Kong, and exclusive to the website of Australian fashion chain Cotton On. Oddly, the Australian release came in [[multilingual packaging]] intended for the European market, a rare but not entirely unheard of occurrence. Due to the limited space on the back, this, unfortunately, means the iconic [[Tech Spec]] card is omitted, replaced by parental warnings in 24 languages about the possibility of breakage due to excessive force, and that parts are not designed to reattach. In Singapore, Bumblebee is released as a giveaway for their screenings of the [[Bumblebee (film)|''Bumblebee'' live-action movie]].
