One thing I love about Bayformer Starscream is you’ll know he’s coming before you even see him. He has that high pitched… almost mechanical squawking noise every time he transforms that’s super distinctive. I love that sound design for him
@@umairashraf5167 yes, prior to the point where Grindor dropped Sam and the other two into that warehouse thing, Starscream was playing Yahtzee with Megatron and failed to get a full house for the past four turns.
I seriously don't understand how people like ANYTHING about that fucking bitch ass twink, his design is ugly and way too skinny and his colors just scream misery like holy fuck, as for personality Jesus Christ not even g1 Starscream was this much of a pussy, the voice is fine but it can't save this diarrhea pile of a n iteration, the best of the traditional kind of starscream character is definitely animated, argue with the wall, there is no debate to be had or room for constructive criticism, I am always right
I respectfully disagree. You raise a valid point in that rolled oats are the most preferred choice out of the lot not only flavor-wise but also in their consistency, if cooked properly having a deliciously creamy yet hardy texture. I prefer my oats prepared in warm milk for about 5 to 10 min till the oats reach the desired consistency, the milk adding the creamy texture as well as enriching the flavor with a wonderful sweetness. The issues I take are with your oatmeal toppings of choice, them being plain fruit or strawberries as seen in the example shown. Whilst fruit in and of itself carries no (decepti)cons, it is my belief that it is a crime to not spare further time and resources in letting the oatmeal reach its apotheosis. I am of the mind that the milk brewed oats work best with small, bite-sized chunks of fresh apple, further adding to the sweet taste as well as a hint of sourness contributing to the complexity and depth of the dish, and some chopped walnuts for crunchiness and lastly a sprinkle of cinnamon, a minuscule edition to taste, but it gives the bowl a rich and pleasant aroma. The combination of all the aforementioned elements elevates the simple bowl of cereal grain into a delicious dish in ways that no single fruit topping can, and that will leave you not only full but also satisfied and full of energy to start your morning off right.
Armada Starscream by himself is definitely his own breed. But every other version in the trilogy I would never even call Screamer but a clone made in his image with vague memories who slowly became his G1 self on a grand scale
Yeah it’s hard to think of UT Starscream as the same guy. Armada Starscream had a complete arc where he grew to respect himself and learn what true leadership is, and died a hero. Then Cybertron Starscream was the exact opposite, a complete menace to both sides. And Energon is Energon
I think what they should have done with Energon Starscream is they should have had a subplot where Optimus, Hot Shot, and Alexis try to get him to remember who he was (basically that Dark Glass episode of Beast Wars that was scrapped) Also I think he's saying grazie
Funny thing: i thought that bayverse Starscream was saying "ragazzi". In italy, it means "teenagers/guys/kids" so I thought he was just saying "the kids..." in italian because, you know.. they found the kids. But now I see that he spoke in english so.. I have no idea too.
Fun fact:beast wars II starscream and bb is based on an actual cancelled version of g2 starscream and megatron and they were also a repaints of g2 smokescreen and dreadwing,plus the upgraded form of beast wars II bb and starscream (hellscream and max-b) were also a repaints and retools of beast wars cybershark and wolfang/k9
Even comparing him to the Armada version, I still think he's equal to that. You just have to realize they took the G1 characterization in two different directions. -G1 Screamer was an incompetent backstabber who rarely succeeded, and his abuse was played for laughs. -Armada took the abuse angle and played it for drama, causing him to have a crisis of faith when briefly siding with Optimus and the Autobots. -Cybertron took the backstabbing schemer angle and played it straight, making him more competent and cunning. As a result he became the most successful iteration of the character by far, a threat in his own right on par with that series' Megatron.
Doritoscream isn't really a joke anymore. It's evolved into a nickname; like you'd call beast wars Megatron 'barney', or menasor 'menny'. I can't think of a better name for him, and I wouldn't have it any other way.
Armada and cybertron starscreams was probably one of the best starscream versions, especially the heroic,noble personality of armada starscream,he got even the best design from that series along with scavenger,demolishor and cyclonus,megatron and blurr and most of the minicons,and cybertron starscream is actually a really great version of starscream but it's sadly underrated,and it's great to see cybertron starscream using elements from his marvel comics counterpart
Weirdly, it's only now that I notice how much bird-themed Starscream's Bayverse design is. I've always noticed that strange beak-looking detail on his forehead/nose, but now with this whole design analysis, It's so fascinating to me just how much subtlety went in his avian resemblance. I still prefer classic design's core structure above everything, but I'm REALLY hoping some future character gets something reminiscent to THIS design. I'm near the end of "Transformers: Victory" actually! Could this be an ideal basics for possible redesign of Guyhawk? 🤔 Also, the only villain character in fiction I admire as much as Starscream, is Bill Cipher, and It's only now that I realize that both were at some point mistaken for a dorito 😳🤭
16:17 "He got the HEELS, he got the SWAGGER, he got the QUASIMODO HUNCH" the way you say it is so rhythmic and catchy, i swear to god it has bewitched me
I always found it weird that in the Bayformers films, Starscream had a different voice in the first film compared to the second and third films. I mean I understand why they changed it because it fits his sniveling character, but his first voice sounded way too cool for little amount we've heard just to throw it away.
I feel like Cybertron Starscream is underrated. He is seen planning to take down Megatron and becomes a separate threat for the Autobots on his own terms. Like the guy beat the entire team of Autobots on his own and when it seemed like Optimus got the upper hand, he used his wits to outsmart him. So he's by far the strongest incarnation of the character. Not to mention he's one of the few Starscreams that are still alive by the show's ending and continues standing in the way of the Autobots in his realm of the Fire Dimension. On another note, I think Starscream's different iterations in all 3 shows could have worked had it been written better where Starscream does get his memories back....after the events of Energon. And he is left distraught when he realizes that Megatron essentially lobotomized him into servitude and doesn't feel like he could ever happily reunite with his old friends in Armada after serving Megatron so loyally. That's when he starts to construct his plan into betraying him and trying to bring him down. It felt like Cybertron tried to allude to the brainwashing in Energon when Starscream accuses Megatron of making him his slave so I wish the show tried acting more as a sequel to the previous installments. It could have worked as a tragic character who went from redemption to corruption arc.
I like the design of the RID 2015 Starscream, if we get a proper Voyager class of it in Legacy, though understandably unlikely, it would probably be one of my favourite Starscream figure
Other than the "Dinobot/Dreadwing" type from Armada, my fav type of Starscream is the competent one who can pose a threat - Cybertron, Combiner Wars, Cyberverse (to a lesser extent early on but not later). Energon is NPC, G1, Prime, WFC/FOC and Animated (since S1 final) are punching bags. No opinion about Bayverse Screamer
There’s something to every part of the unicron trilogy Starscream. Armada is a big part of the story, I kinda like the idea of Starscream being an assassin in Energon and I think could work if tried again, Cybertron is if Starscream stopped being a coward but decided to punch all his problems while still strategizing by playing the long game since episode 1. I think all 3 should be done again instead of another G1 rehash to add some extra variety
Ikr? Galaxy Force shows that if Starscream had balls (to risk going for more interesting chances) and braincells (to keep his mouth shut at least), he'd be a (third) force to be reckoned with.
Prime and Animated are my favorite, Cyberverse is also up there too. But Prime Screamer will always be my definitive view of how he acts and sounds like.
@@pc_suffering6941what, not a disgusting enough voice like what do you even mean by that anyways? Also when was he ever depicted as being weak in TFP? Do you mean weak in his strength?😂🤦
@@pc_suffering6941 I mean, isn’t that the point of Starscream as a character? His strength doesn’t lie in his physical strength, but in his intelligence
@@anakinlowground5515starscream in both galaxy force and cybertron has both intelligence and strength/fighting skills, they combined the best aspects of G1 starscream and armada starscream
Bayformers Screamer just wanted to play Yahtzee One of the if not the best design was g1 and the only two I can think of can live up to it being Prime and Animated
It doesn't matter who's the best Starscream because they would all immediately start plotting against each other for the top spot (except Armada maybe)
Cybertron Starscream has the distinction of being the only Starscream to be the main villain of the series. Back in 2006, he was the centerpiece of the Cybertron line.
Honestly would have been cool if they had kept Energon Starscream as basically an incomplete ghost, would have made him such a bigger threat as you'd have no way of really hitting him, and you wouldn't even know where he'd attack from next.
What a bold statement "watch BW2"...yes i agree whole heartly!! Also...yeah wow i never realized how much animated starscream had acomplished until you laid it out like that! 10/10 tier list
The only thing I liked about Prime wars Starscream is that in the second show he possesses trypticon and goes on a rampage. I feel like him and cyberverse would make a good duo since they both of have super powered forms. And are crazy. But that’s really it. He does sound really freaky possessing them too, sounds like a demon for the depths, All weird and pitchy half the time I can’t tell what he’s saying! But that’s kinda all I like about him-
I agree regarding Armada Starscream and how he was done dirty in Energon. I haven't gotten to watch Cyberverse as I still haven't finished what I think was the final season of RID 2015, but it does seem like a fun show, and this video has made me more interested in watching it. I also agree with the top three and the love given to BW2 Starscream. :3
I respect you on a whole new level,I FULLY agree with your placement of TFP Starscream,he is the BEST incarnation of Screamer I also choose to believe the Transformers Energon doesn't exist and Cybertron is a different universe compared to Armada Starscream
I would like to say, as a bisexual Starscream was what GOT ME INTO Transformers. Mind you, it was because I saw him in a transformers dating sims page (which is now lost media), but HE was the reason I watched the shows.
I like Starscream so much I am seriously contemplating writing a fanfiction series in an original fan continuity that focuses on him rather than Optimus or Megatron.
At 10:37 I NEED someone to make an edit of Starscream's body being thrown off the ship, a little sped up and with the g-mod ragdoll sounds. Please, pretty please
For personal matters I like most of the Starscreams in the Transformers franchise and they're all great in their own right. The G1 Starscream of the Transformers G1 cartoon series isn't stupid, he's a badass bookworm and he's very intelligent and I like G1 Starscream and he never gives up and he always comes back.
15:31 it’s funny you mention that because when I first saw “the transformers: the movie” starscreams death made me the most sad out of all the deaths because “how could they have killed starscream” I think this video is great!
Whats great abt prime screamer is that his design took inspiration from Bayverse starscream. His concept design shows that the most, where he has digitigrade legs like bayscreamer, i need more Starscreams (and seekers in general) that are like birds, its too cool to just be a Bayverse (and kind of a Prime) thing
I really like Starcream myself and I have quite the fondness for the character, I genuinely wouldn’t mind seeing more of these type of incarceration ranking videos. Here is my opinion on each of the onscreen screemers 10: Despite a lack of screen time I do quite like Starscream’s design in Bumblebee and I can’t wait to see more of him in Rise Of The Beasts (if it doesn’t get delayed again) 9: I don’t think he’s great either, but I do have his siege figure and honestly he was easily my favourite character in the prime wars trilogy, which isn’t saying a huge lot 8: I don’t care about this Starscreem, I like how they took inspiration from the IDW comics but that’s his only saving grace 7: Another studio series figure that I have, and one which I decided to order on Amazon because thought that Hamley’s charging £65 for a voyager class was a good idea. I love this Starscream but only because of my fondness of the bayformers franchise and does have some memorable scenes like when he swipes all of those cars out of the way 6: I heard that Armada Starscream was a completely innovative take on the character and I do have my eye on his legacy figure. Despite this, I couldn’t care less for Energon and I had a brief period of time when I watched Cybertron and I forgot everything he did there. 5: I never got into Cyberverse so I’m not the most familiar on this take of the character, but Megatron live-streaming his “funeral” honestly that alone makes me want to try out cyberverse 4: I don’t watch that much anime, but Beast Wars II Starscream is by far the most unique Starscream 3:I never watched Transformers Animated, but I already like this incarnation based on the fact that he was voiced by Tom Kenny alone 2: He finally got to rule the deceptions for 5 seconds, 5 precious seconds 1: I watched Prime and he is an absolute chad lord. I love his lanky arms and his threatening voice and he’s just such an entertaining character to watch. Really entertaining and funny video. Can’t wait to see more :)
6:50 he's clearly offering his guests some TEEEEA. The spit was really just left over tea he was getting out of his mouth because as we know a gentleman doesn't talk with his mouth full. Its just a shame Optimus and bumblebee bust in before the kettle was boiled.
Gen 1 will always be my favorite! Starscream in G1 is so funny, scary, sneaky, and cute all at the same time! Plus his design might be the best, in my opinion, I love his colors 💙 He's ICONIC. Seeing him on screen always made me happy, he's so entertaining
I grew up with transformers prime and now 11 years later I’m obssesed with g1 the comics, the movies everything also it’s no wonder I turned out gay and trans with growing up with tfp ss lmfao
Out of interest, where would Armarda Starsream have ranked if he was standalone? Armarda was the starscream i grew up with. Armarda Starscream legitimately shows he would have been a better leader than Megatron/Galvatron. He also clearly does earn Megatron, and even the more unhinged Galvatron's respect... even if they would never *admit it*. Armarda Megatron is hard on Starscream because he thinks that will make Starscream better. He dosen't treat Cyclonus or Demolisher or the others like he does Starscream. He's always pushing Starscream. And look in their final confrontation, Galvatron clearly doesn't want to kill Starscream, he keeps giving him final chance after final chance to back down. Because deep down Armarda Galvatron does value and respect Starscream; even if he dosen't agree with him until Starscream goes so far as to lay down his life. And even then, I think Starscream knows despite Galvatron trying to hide it. After all; before his suicidal attack; he told Galvatron to work with Optimus for him. And he *did*
Me personally I think that tfa starscream is better than g1 starscream because tfa starscream is more conniving than g1 starscream. Even tho both were equally trying to kill megatron and be the leader, g1 starscream gets kind of annoying due to his voice(no slander on g1 starscream, his voice is cool), while tfa is devious and as you said, gets things done. I feel tfa starscreams story is more in depth too, and I like his immortality story more than ghost starscream imo
Starscream in prime is the meaning of “work with what you have” From the Apex Amr to the red energon from two doses of it and a dead dummy, all the omega keys in one fell swoop Plus his loyalty to Megatron at the end of the show, holy cow It was art watching him work
I was not expecting Cam. I just watched that video a couple weeks ago and it was amazing. But Bayverse Starscream, I don’t like his design but as an F22 Raptor fanatic, having him transform into an F22 Raptor is freaking amazing. However, his death was utter bullcrap and was anticlimactic. And it’s even more dumb when he doesn’t return when Starscream in almost every incarnation canonically has an indestructible spark. Then again, Bay also killer off Jazz by having him ripped in half, something he would survive by his Spark remaining intact (this is clearly survivable as we’ve seen other transformers survive far worse). I did not feel for his personality mainly because he doesn’t appear much and he just feels…bland. For me, though, my first introduction to Transformers was RiD but I dropped it when Armada started airing because that show drew me in and Armada Starscream was my first exposure to the character. Having Starscream join the Autobots was such a crazy concept I’m disappointed they never tried to tackle it again. G1 Starscream I didn’t care for when I watched him but, honestly, he’s so affably evil and the comedy is gold: Megatron: Are you lying to just stupid?! Starscream: I’m stupid! I’m stupid! G1 is such a gem.
I think Armada Starscream is my favorite of the Starscreams. I always love the conflicted characters like Dinobot, or Ahsoka in which they don’t know which team they want to be on
Starscream:"It's time for a change,Megatron! It's time for action,not words...I am the leader of the future!!" Megatron:"You couldn't lead anidroid to a picnic! How can you claim to lead the Decepticons!?!"
Out of all the Starscreams, Bayverse has to be my fave design. Aside from his tortilla chip torso. The bird like features, and the tattoos just fit his character.
The fact that prime star scream killed the rock shows he put in the work and put in the power
Plot twist: it was John Cena posing as Starscream, why he didn't just give Megatron the attitude adjustment is beyond me.
Now what's his mother friggin name

@@anakinlowground5515 *laughs in Galaxy Force*
@@anakinlowground5515starscream in both galaxy force and cybertron has both intelligence and strength/fighting skills, they combined the best aspects of G1 starscream and armada starscream
The goddamn little birthday guy joke cracked me up way too hard how dare you
6:48 I just thought starscream was saying si as in yes or just random cybertronian noises
Bayformers Screamer just wanted to play Yahtzee
One of the if not the best design was g1 and the only two I can think of can live up to it being Prime and Animated
1:38 "lovable twink" 💀😭
It doesn't matter who's the best Starscream because they would all immediately start plotting against each other for the top spot (except Armada maybe)
I love TFPrime do much, and prime starscream is just one of the many reasons why.
Yeah he’s actually the reason I love Starscream and then I heard G1 guy and fell in love more 🤣
Cybertron Starscream has the distinction of being the only Starscream to be the main villain of the series. Back in 2006, he was the centerpiece of the Cybertron line.
Honestly would have been cool if they had kept Energon Starscream as basically an incomplete ghost, would have made him such a bigger threat as you'd have no way of really hitting him, and you wouldn't even know where he'd attack from next.
What a bold statement "watch BW2"...yes i agree whole heartly!!
Also...yeah wow i never realized how much animated starscream had acomplished until you laid it out like that! 10/10 tier list
5:47 I always thought he said “let’s eat” like he’s tryna scare Sam or sumn
"I look like Thundercracker"
- Armada Starscream after getting more blue.
The only thing I liked about Prime wars Starscream is that in the second show he possesses trypticon and goes on a rampage.
I feel like him and cyberverse would make a good duo since they both of have super powered forms. And are crazy.
But that’s really it. He does sound really freaky possessing them too, sounds like a demon for the depths, All weird and pitchy half the time I can’t tell what he’s saying!
But that’s kinda all I like about him-
Charlie Adler needs to play another version.
I agree regarding Armada Starscream and how he was done dirty in Energon.
I haven't gotten to watch Cyberverse as I still haven't finished what I think was the final season of RID 2015, but it does seem like a fun show, and this video has made me more interested in watching it.
I also agree with the top three and the love given to BW2 Starscream. :3
I respect you on a whole new level,I FULLY agree with your placement of TFP Starscream,he is the BEST incarnation of Screamer
I also choose to believe the Transformers Energon doesn't exist and Cybertron is a different universe compared to Armada Starscream
5:23 I like to thinks of his legs as a similarity with how Satan gets portrayed having goat-like legs. I find that interesting.
I do love Prime Starscream. His voice fits perfectly, and I do like a voice that can give chills.
18:26 apparently Earthspark agreed with you because Steve Blum is back!
This vid is probably one of my favorite videos that you've put out. It'd be great if you ranked other characters sometime in the future.
I bet you were thrilled when EarthSpark brought back Steve Blum
Armada starscream not being higher on the list, is just a crime.
Right…
All the gay people i know love starscream even if they've never seen any transformers. You couldn't PAY for that kind of public awareness.
I would like to say, as a bisexual Starscream was what GOT ME INTO Transformers. Mind you, it was because I saw him in a transformers dating sims page (which is now lost media), but HE was the reason I watched the shows.
@@Crystreas a fellow Bisexual, Starscream was the one who got me into Transformers too!!!
Lesbian here, Starscream was the character to convert me into a full fledged Transformers fan lol
This was such a good video.
Look at all them chickens.
I like Starscream so much I am seriously contemplating writing a fanfiction series in an original fan continuity that focuses on him rather than Optimus or Megatron.
1:12 Starscream, what are you doing in that left panel?
He was touching Windblade in the exact part the bomb affected her
"He's such a fuckhead! It's great!"
At 10:37 I NEED someone to make an edit of Starscream's body being thrown off the ship, a little sped up and with the g-mod ragdoll sounds. Please, pretty please
“His Dorriii.. Shit-“ Search your feelings, you know it to be true
Hhhmmm.........*gasp* YAHTZEE!!! he said YAHTZEE, definitely
also G1 Starscream is the Spamton of Starscreams
that or Animated.
For personal matters I like most of the Starscreams in the Transformers franchise and they're all great in their own right. The G1 Starscream of the Transformers G1 cartoon series isn't stupid, he's a badass bookworm and he's very intelligent and I like G1 Starscream and he never gives up and he always comes back.
15:31 it’s funny you mention that because when I first saw “the transformers: the movie” starscreams death made me the most sad out of all the deaths because “how could they have killed starscream” I think this video is great!
I’d say that the saddest starscream death was when he got killed by unicron in armada
Incredibly based ranking. Always good to see fellow Starscream enthusiasts
Whats great abt prime screamer is that his design took inspiration from Bayverse starscream. His concept design shows that the most, where he has digitigrade legs like bayscreamer, i need more Starscreams (and seekers in general) that are like birds, its too cool to just be a Bayverse (and kind of a Prime) thing
I really like Starcream myself and I have quite the fondness for the character, I genuinely wouldn’t mind seeing more of these type of incarceration ranking videos. Here is my opinion on each of the onscreen screemers
10: Despite a lack of screen time I do quite like Starscream’s design in Bumblebee and I can’t wait to see more of him in Rise Of The Beasts (if it doesn’t get delayed again)
9: I don’t think he’s great either, but I do have his siege figure and honestly he was easily my favourite character in the prime wars trilogy, which isn’t saying a huge lot
8: I don’t care about this Starscreem, I like how they took inspiration from the IDW comics but that’s his only saving grace
7: Another studio series figure that I have, and one which I decided to order on Amazon because thought that Hamley’s charging £65 for a voyager class was a good idea. I love this Starscream but only because of my fondness of the bayformers franchise and does have some memorable scenes like when he swipes all of those cars out of the way
6: I heard that Armada Starscream was a completely innovative take on the character and I do have my eye on his legacy figure. Despite this, I couldn’t care less for Energon and I had a brief period of time when I watched Cybertron and I forgot everything he did there.
5: I never got into Cyberverse so I’m not the most familiar on this take of the character, but Megatron live-streaming his “funeral” honestly that alone makes me want to try out cyberverse
4: I don’t watch that much anime, but Beast Wars II Starscream is by far the most unique Starscream
3:I never watched Transformers Animated, but I already like this incarnation based on the fact that he was voiced by Tom Kenny alone
2: He finally got to rule the deceptions for 5 seconds, 5 precious seconds
1: I watched Prime and he is an absolute chad lord. I love his lanky arms and his threatening voice and he’s just such an entertaining character to watch.
Really entertaining and funny video. Can’t wait to see more :)
6:50 he's clearly offering his guests some TEEEEA.
The spit was really just left over tea he was getting out of his mouth because as we know a gentleman doesn't talk with his mouth full.
Its just a shame Optimus and bumblebee bust in before the kettle was boiled.
Gen 1 will always be my favorite! Starscream in G1 is so funny, scary, sneaky, and cute all at the same time! Plus his design might be the best, in my opinion, I love his colors 💙
He's ICONIC. Seeing him on screen always made me happy, he's so entertaining
I grew up with transformers prime and now 11 years later I’m obssesed with g1 the comics, the movies everything also it’s no wonder I turned out gay and trans with growing up with tfp ss lmfao
Yeah, I understand why Bumblebee Starscream is bottom of the barrel since we don’t know much about that continuity’s version of Starscream yet
Starscream was always only loyal to himself. He would betray you in a heartbeat 😬
Out of interest, where would Armarda Starsream have ranked if he was standalone?
Armarda was the starscream i grew up with. Armarda Starscream legitimately shows he would have been a better leader than Megatron/Galvatron. He also clearly does earn Megatron, and even the more unhinged Galvatron's respect... even if they would never *admit it*. Armarda Megatron is hard on Starscream because he thinks that will make Starscream better. He dosen't treat Cyclonus or Demolisher or the others like he does Starscream. He's always pushing Starscream.
And look in their final confrontation, Galvatron clearly doesn't want to kill Starscream, he keeps giving him final chance after final chance to back down. Because deep down Armarda Galvatron does value and respect Starscream; even if he dosen't agree with him until Starscream goes so far as to lay down his life.
And even then, I think Starscream knows despite Galvatron trying to hide it. After all; before his suicidal attack; he told Galvatron to work with Optimus for him. And he *did*
Livestreaming your 2nd in command's funeral after YOU freaking kill him??? that's a whole new level of low lmao
Me personally I think that tfa starscream is better than g1 starscream because tfa starscream is more conniving than g1 starscream. Even tho both were equally trying to kill megatron and be the leader, g1 starscream gets kind of annoying due to his voice(no slander on g1 starscream, his voice is cool), while tfa is devious and as you said, gets things done. I feel tfa starscreams story is more in depth too, and I like his immortality story more than ghost starscream imo
I really thought that you were gonna do a bit with Starscream's ghost at the end but that was pretty good too 🤣
Tbh I think that Bay Starscream said in that one scene "let's seeeeee"
good video, the max payne music in the cyberverse segment really caught me off guard
1:10 *Casually puts the best comic version of Starscream*
Now rank every Paperplane
In Bayverse, Starscream speaks a lot more Cybertronian than the others, so in that scene, he’s was most likely speaking Cybertronian.
Starscream in prime is the meaning of “work with what you have”
From the Apex Amr to the red energon from two doses of it and a dead dummy, all the omega keys in one fell swoop
Plus his loyalty to Megatron at the end of the show, holy cow
It was art watching him work
Cyberverse Megatron: *murders Starscream* Welp better tell Facebook
Love watching Transformers videos and hearing the Devastation soundtrack in the background
3:04 I like the WFC’s starscreams realization about unicron I think that shenanigan was a good take on the character
I am now calling him "Stars cream" now 😆
I just curious, how would you rank GF/Cybertron Starscream if you were to see him as his own version separate from Armada.
i like to call bayverse starscream crabscream cause... the resemblence is uncanny
NEW PP VIDEO HYPE
BAYVERSE STARSCREAM DORITO🤪🤪🤪
Oh my God, it's the famous youtuber, Key in Car
Animatet is my personal favrite, but I admit im biosed cause Animatet is the show I grew up on, so hes the first I was ever introduced too.
I rewatched Revenge of the Fallen (or maybe Dark of the Moon????) with subtitles and even that didn’t know what Starscream said in that scene-
I was not expecting Cam. I just watched that video a couple weeks ago and it was amazing.
But Bayverse Starscream, I don’t like his design but as an F22 Raptor fanatic, having him transform into an F22 Raptor is freaking amazing. However, his death was utter bullcrap and was anticlimactic. And it’s even more dumb when he doesn’t return when Starscream in almost every incarnation canonically has an indestructible spark. Then again, Bay also killer off Jazz by having him ripped in half, something he would survive by his Spark remaining intact (this is clearly survivable as we’ve seen other transformers survive far worse). I did not feel for his personality mainly because he doesn’t appear much and he just feels…bland.
For me, though, my first introduction to Transformers was RiD but I dropped it when Armada started airing because that show drew me in and Armada Starscream was my first exposure to the character. Having Starscream join the Autobots was such a crazy concept I’m disappointed they never tried to tackle it again.
G1 Starscream I didn’t care for when I watched him but, honestly, he’s so affably evil and the comedy is gold:
Megatron: Are you lying to just stupid?!
Starscream: I’m stupid! I’m stupid!
G1 is such a gem.
12:10 I'm honestly getting tfa random blitzwing from this starscream and I love it
underrated robot youtuber
I always thought Bayformers Starscream was saying "Nazi" as a kid 😂
I think Armada Starscream is my favorite of the Starscreams. I always love the conflicted characters like Dinobot, or Ahsoka in which they don’t know which team they want to be on
Starscream:"It's time for a change,Megatron! It's time for action,not words...I am the leader of the future!!" Megatron:"You couldn't lead anidroid to a picnic! How can you claim to lead the Decepticons!?!"
14:03 the delivery on the “YES” 😂
Out of all the Starscreams, Bayverse has to be my fave design. Aside from his tortilla chip torso. The bird like features, and the tattoos just fit his character.
To me Starscream in that scene in Revenge of The Fallen is saying "That's it". Meaning he is probably enjoying the fear from Sam and his friends.
