| This article is about the exclusive toy for Transformers Generations 2009. For the Action Master partner to Take-Off, see Screech (Action Master). |
- Screech is an Autobot from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Screech was once a Skids from an alternate timeline, unwittingly pulled into another timeline by that timeline's Skids. Together, they fight crime!
Mostly, Screech hopes one day that he can find his way back to his home dimension. Until then, he and his "brother" Skids have paired up as Quantum Operatives, scouring the multiverse for anomalies. For these purposes, the Quantam Phase Attack Specialist has covered himself with a Dimension Slide coating, and he carries a substance accelerator pistol and a Quantum Shield. The doors on his back allow him to glide through the air.
Fiction
Henkei! Henkei! Generations comic
Along with his fellow "Quantum Operative" Skids, Screech pursued Starscream's ghost across the multiverse to a parallel dimension where he was causing trouble. While the two dimension-hoppers kept the ghost busy with wordplay and pop culture references, the Mirage of that world used his illusion casting powers to scare Starscream into fleeing the dimension by projecting an illusion of his greatest fear: Galvatron! Starscream's New Body
