Fiction

[edit]

Thundercracker was a member of the Cybertronian High Guard. Upon bearing witness to Sentinel Prime's betrayal of the Primes, he and the rest of the High Guard resolved to hide away from the rest of Cybertronian society and delegate resources towards sabotaging Sentinel's rule.

Thundercracker stood in attendance as Starscream interrogated a quartet of trespassers. He bore witness to a duel between D-16 and his leader Starscream in which D-16 was victorious in. Shortly afterwards, a swarm of Death Trackers led by Airachnid descended upon them. Thundercracker fought bravely against them and managed to avoid being captured himself, but could not prevent the numerically superior enemy from carrying off many prisoners including Starscream, D-16, and B-127.

Thundercracker took part in the assault on Sentinel's tower. He watched and cheered as Megatron tore Sentinel in half and participated in the destruction of Iacon, only to be interrupted by a returned Orion - now rechristened Optimus Prime. After Megatron's defeat at the hands of Optimus, Thundercracker and his fellow High Guard officers chose to follow Megatron and retreat after Optimus exiled Megatron and all his followers from Iacon.

In their exile, the group was rechristened the Decepticons, and the faction's insignia based on the face of Megatronus Prime was branded onto Thundercracker's wings. Thundercracker blasted rays from his weaponry alongside with his fellow seekers as Megatron called upon them to 'rise up'. One

Studio Series

[edit]
  • Thundercracker (Deluxe Class, 2026)
  • Movie: Transformers One
  • Accessories: 2 blasters
Studio Series Thundercracker is a retool of Starscream with a new head, wings, and chest grill and is based on his appearance in Transformers One, transforming into a Cybertronian jet fighter. The weapons from the original mold are omitted, and instead he includes two triple-barreled cannons that he can wield or attach to his shoulders.
Though he is part of Wave 31, Thundercracker was left out of any marketing for that wave, presumably because he is the sole figure not part of that wave's 40th Anniversary of The Transformers: The Movie push. Instead, he was revealed by himself on Hasbro China's Taobao site on March 9 of 2026, while Hasbro revealed him alongside Wave 32 on April 13 with pre-orders the next day, a mere week before he showed up on store pegs alongside his actual wavemates.
