SS, TCracker and Skywarp specs

Starscream is fastest (and cutest, ha), Thundercracker makes a controlled sonic boom. Is that just his character trait or has it been used as a weapon somewhere along the line in a comic? What is Skywarp good at, he doesn't get much attention at all? Which one can teleport? I always thought it was Thundercracker, spec says Skywarp. The comics often are different from the cartoons. My spec sheets all vary. What is the real poop?

You've answered your own question.

All the flyboys are freaking adorable! :oops:

The following informative video sheds some light on the seeker trio.

Thanks, That video is pretty funny, but it didn't really go into any detail about their bios. I asked a friend of mine about it and they said that Thundercracker did indeed teleport in one of the comics but it was an outside influence that caused him to be able to it and just skywarp has teleport ability. At least he cleared that up for me. I try to use G1 as my baseline for abilities. Comics seem to be better though.

According to what I can find, or know from the past, Starscream is a treacherous backstabber, self-convinced of his own universal superiority. He is the most accomplished flyer in the Decepticon army, earning him the top spot in the Flyboy Society! :grin:

Thundercracker is a lover of mayhem, he creates those massive sonic booms for his own amusement. He is also wishy-washy on his feelings for the Decepticon cause and sees little need to harm humans (He keeps all this to himself, since he knows voicing his feelings would get him slagged), but still does what Megatron orders out of sheer fear.

Skywarp is a prankster with the knack of opening spacial portals, allowing him to teleport. He is the "dumbest" of the Seekers and needs guidance almost constantly, or he'll screw something up but good! His jokes get him in trouble often, with Autobot and Decepticon alike, as they often push the envelope of survivability!


I am sure I left something out, since I am going on some really ancient memories from back in the day!
