Transformers Cybertron Starscream
Transformers Cybertron Starscream is a Decepticon that frequently
appears in many of the Transformers series. He sometimes takes the
role as leader of the flying Decepticon Seekers and other times he’s
known to be second in command under the almighty Megatron. In
various instances he manages to seize complete control of the
Decepticons when Megatron is killed by Optimus Prime. However
Megatron always gets back to him in one way or another to regain his
rightful position as leader of the devilish crew.
Starscream’s only true ambition is to tackle Megatron’s leadership of
the Decepticons rather than follow orders. His cruelty and superior
intelligence actually makes him a real threat to Megatron, but his
inferior strength always leave him defeated. He thinks himself of being
more modern than Megatron and often takes pleasure in critizicing him
for his old-fashioned ways. Starscream obsession for speed-tactics
makes him think that Megatron’s brute strategy of sheer force and
destruction inferior. Verbal and physical rivalries are not a rarity
between the two, but these often end up with Starscream being
ridiculed in front of other Decepticons.
In the animated series Transformers Cybertron Starscream was
actually an Autobot who worked with Skyfire as scientists during the
Golden Age. The two went on to explore planet earth and Skyfire
mysteriously disappeared. When Starscream returned to Cybertron
they were in plain civil war, and he decided to join the Decepticons
because he thought destruction was much more exciting than his old
scientific pursuits. Starscream was one of the Transformers who were
trapped and frozen in earth for million years. However, thanks to a
volcanic explosion the Decepticons were miraculously reactivated,
Starscream along with them. Starscream mistakenly shook the
Autobot base with one shot causing the Autobots to also reactivate
thus the endless war between the Autobots and Decepticons
continued.
In the 2007 Movie the writers agreed that Starscream would maintain
his negative attitude and rivalry against Megatron. Although
Starscream selfishly escapes when he notices the Decepticons had
been demolished by the Autobots, the movie doesn’t do a good job of
showing the rivalry between the two. Following Transformers tradition,
Starscream can turn into a full powered jet. In this case he turns into a
modified F-22, being bigger than the average Decepticon.
Transformers Cybertron Starscream’s Jet characteristics give him the
ability to make huge jumps when he’s in robot mode. He can also use
any of his two wings as deadly swords against his enemy.
