Skywarp isn't like most other Decepticons. He cares not for power, conquest, or battle. Knowledge is the one goal he has in his life. Others can fight the war, as he is far more comfortable in the solitude of the workspace provided by Megatron. For the generous gift of peace and near unlimited time to research, he develops countless experimental weapons and tools for the Decepticons. Although a scientist, Skywarp is far from unarmed, and is equipped with many weapons that are both insanely powerful and near impossible to describe.

Skywarp is a Walmart exclusive redeco of Thundercracker, who was a retool of the original Voyager-class Starscream toy with a new head. Cast in black and purple plastic homaging Generation 1 Skywarp, he transforms into a Lockheed-Martin F-22 Raptor fighter jet. As with Starscream, this vehicle mode is ridiculously inaccurate. Pushing the fighter along a smooth surface causes the barrels of his gigantic spring-loaded Gatling missile launchers to rotate and fire their projectiles, which can also be stored in the black flip-up braces on the launchers.

During transformation, pushing up upon the canopy fuselage piece activates Skywarp's Automorphing gimmick which pushes panels out of the torso, wings and stabilizers. In robot mode, his projectile missiles are sculpted to resemble fingers, should users choose keep them loaded while Skywarp is in robot mode.

The original mold of this toy was also used to make Revenge of the Fallen Ramjet.
