SKYWARP AND THUNDERCRACKER SKYWARP AND THUNDERCRACKER

These two Decepticon seekers, each with their own special powers, are as deadly as they are stupid!


SKYWARP

Skywarp was the first Transformer to be revived by Teletran One. Skywarp then saw to the rebuilding of his leader, Megatron, and the other Decepticons. He shares a close bond with Thundercracker, and although the two are physically identical, except for colour schemes, there has been no evidence to confirm or deny any family ties between them.
Skywarp transforms into the likeness of an F-16 fighter jet. In this mode, and in robot mode, he has the ability to teleport himself and other objects over marginal distances. Whether he needs precise co-ordinates or relies on line-of-sight is unknown. In robot mode, Skywarp is armed with two arm-mounted concussion rifles.
Skywarp is not the smartest of Decepticons. If it were not for Megatron giving him instructions, he would more than likely be totally useless. Despite this, he served Megatron well, until the Earth year 2005, when he was greviously injured during the Autobot City Massacre. It is unclear who inflicted the damage to him, but it sems likely to have been Autobot leader, Optimus Prime. On the return journey to Cybertron, Skywarp was cast into space along with the other wounded Decepticons to lighten the load, and was taken in by the planet-eater, Unicron, and reconfigured into Cyclonus by the monster planet. He was also given a clone of himself, known as "his armada" - a reconstructed version of the Insecticon, Bombshell.
Further information on Cyclonus can be found in his own profile.


THUNDERCRACKER

Thundercracker, along with Reflector was the first Decepticon to ascertain the existence of humans on Earth. Thundercracker doesn't much like being stranded on Earth, and would rather go back to Cybertron, to live a little more peacefully. He sometimes has his doubts about the Decepticon cause, but his fear of Megatron usually overcomes them.
Thundercracker possesses the ability to transform into an Earthen F-16 fighter jet. In this mode, while flying, he can create deafening sonic booms to confuse and aggravate his enemies. Decepticon Air Commander Starscream just finds it annoying. In robot mode, Thundercracker is armed with two arm-mounted concussion rifles.
Thundercracker, despite a lack of intelligence, served Megatron well, until the Autobot City Massacre of 2005, when he was gunned down by Autobot leader Optimus Prime. Thundercracker was dumped into space with the rest of the wounded Decepticons on the return journey to Cybertron, but was taken in by the monster planet Unicron and reconfigured into Scourge, the tracker, and was given two clones of himself, known as the Sweeps (reconstructed versions of the Insecticons Kickback and Shrapnel), to command.
