	...and they appear literally ''right in front of'' [[Perceptor (G1)\|Perceptor]], [[Cliffjumper (G1)\|Cliffjumper]], and [[Bumblebee (G1)\|Bumblebee]] as the Autobots help [[Santa Claus]] deliver his presents. Starscream and Thundercracker berate Skywarp for blowing their element of surprise, a distraction Bumblebee takes advantage of to allow Santa to slip away. However, Bumblebee's mention of Christmas ticks off the already irate Seekers, who turn their anger towards attacking the Autobots! (Thundercracker is not so willing, but Starscream and Skywarp browbeat him into participating.) The Autobots rally against the Seekers, but Thundercracker's powerful sonic booms and Skywarp's unpredictable teleporting leave them disoriented and wide open for a missile barrage that blows them off their feet. The three Seekers wrap the defeated Autobots up as a present for Megatron...		...and they appear literally ''right in front of'' [[Perceptor (G1)\|Perceptor]], [[Cliffjumper (G1)\|Cliffjumper]], and [[Bumblebee (G1)\|Bumblebee]] as the Autobots help [[Santa Claus]] deliver his presents.

Looking at the defeated Seekers, Optimus gets an idea... forcibly conscript the Seekers into pulling Santa's new sleigh ~~with Optimus himself as passenger~~, complete with antlers and red noses! As the bickering Seeker sleigh races across the night sky, the Autobots wish everyone a Merry Christmas.		...but that's when [[Optimus Prime (G1)\|Optimus Prime]] comes charging in, called in as reinforcements by Santa and his trusty reindeer!

	It's Christmas day at the [[Decepticon]] base, but [[Starscream (G1)\|Starscream]] is stuck on warehouse cleaning duty under orders from [[Megatron (G1)\|Megatron]], a role he sees as beneath his status as Decepticon second-in-command. His [[Seeker (body-type)\|Seeker]] cohorts, the prankster [[Skywarp (G1)\|Skywarp]] and the lethargic [[Thundercracker (G1)\|Thundercracker]], are likewise less than enthusiastic about their boring task. That's when Starscream gets an idea – they can go "clean up" those pesky [[Autobot]]s instead! Jumping on the chance to partake in some action, Skywarp teleports the trio away...
