Starscreams Squadron

[Darth Rockwell]

Seeing as Starscream is still around at the end of movie it seems to me the next logical step would be to bring in the other jest and have him form a squadron. I mean there is Thundercracker, Ramjet, and Skywarp to name a few that could be used. But what kind of planes should they be?

I know that they repainted the Starscream figure gave it a different head and called it Thundercracker. But if they were brought into the movie I think they should all be different types of planes. I've got to look around and see what kind of planes I would like in the movie.

If they do bring the other planes in what types do you guys want?:trans:

I think Ramjet should be an older style plane. He could crash down by an air musiem and a model of the Red Baron type of plane could be out side.http://news.bbc.co.uk/olmedia/550000/images/_552969_baron300.jpg

Skywarp should be something stelthy. Something like a F-117 http://www.telcom.es/~jcastjr/aviones/f-117.jpg

Respectfully, I disagree. The "Seekers" should all be generally contemporary fighter jets, or it wouldn't look as cool to see them fly in formation. The stealth fighter might make for a good single character (Jetfire/Skyfire, Cyclonus or Soundwave) and the prop plane should be reserved for Powerglide, the Bumblebee of the sky.

See the reason I think Ramjet should be a prop plane is because it would be more into him fist to fist fighting. Running into other character, hence Ramjet making since.

Autobots vs. Planes? Seems like a 1 sided battle, we saw how unprepared and inadequate they were at dealing with a flying starscream. And when it gets hairy, they just transform into jet and fly away....

Sorry, I don't think more planes will be a good thing, I'd rather see more fist to fist, or ducking behind cover shooting action.

Yet if you want to remain faithful the majority of Decepticons are arial.

[Starscreamer]

An easy solution is to give the Autobots some serious Air power of there own like say Jetfire/Skyfire or even possibly the Aerialbots.

Personally, I don't mind that. It gives the Decepticons a clear advantage over the Autobots, which is a good thing, IMO.

One thing's for sure, I would not be satisfied with Thundercracker and Skywarp being mere re-colors of Starscream. :down:

Skywarp as an F-117 and Thundercracker as an F/A-18 though, I like. :up:

Considering the way Megatron, Brawl and Starscream OWNED the Autobots and the US Military I think the advantage is apparent LOL only the bravery of Sam Witwicky saved the universe

Thats why I never really got the seekers toys, I'd always get starscream, but never bother with the others, as it was the same toy.

If you're going to have a Decepticon use an old airplane as a alt mode then use the G2 Deceptcion Ransack who transformed into a WWII Chance Vought F4U Corsair. Hell, I would love to see this. As for the reason of taking an outdated form, I don't know.

I don't have good image of him, so here's the toy version of him I found Wikipedia.

Obviously Starscream's squad should all be different jets. Keep Starscream, make one of them a VTOL and make the other something else fresh.

As for advantage, how about the Autobots just plain old outsmart these guys next time? It would have been awesome for Starscream to transform to fly away and then get knocked out of the air by Jazz or Bumblebee getting an ally-oop from Ratchet/Ironhide... totally awesome stuff, super embarassing and gloriously cool...

There are dozens of ways to beat flying opponents... don't you guys play any video games?
