Who is the awesomest Starscream? This is not about who is strongest, fastest, least cowardly, ect, this is just overall awesomeness. So, in short, your favorite Starscream.

Armada.

Great characterisation (let's face it, when Galvatron blew G1 Starscream up in the movie we all laughed, but when Unicron smited Armada Starscream we all cried), great design, and a damn good toy!

Gotta go with Armada. He was a tragic bad-ass, a breath of fresh air after G1's obnoxious wannabe-backstabber. His voice is ales annoying, too. Animated comes in close second.

Though we didn't get to see a whole lot of him, Movie Starscream was one bad dude. The way he took out all those Raptors, no other Starscream can even compare.

Movie Starscream FTW

Wow, I reacted the opposite way to both those.

I thought movie Starscream was pretty badass. Ape-like features is one of the things I like about him, and that display of jet judo was pretty rad. Hopefully we'll see much more of him in the sequel.

G1 Starscream is still the handsomest of all the Starscreams. :)

As some people know, I prefer movie Starscream, he was totally awesome in the first movie despite the fact that he had little screen time. But what really made me like him was The Reign of Starscream, he was totally awesome in that. If I had to pick a second favorite, it would be Armada Starscream. (let's face it, I'm a sucker for the cool villains that can kick some skid plate XD)

Wow. A little bit surprised to see so few votes for Cybertron Starscream. Yeah, I know it wasn't the best series ever made...but I liked it. And there were few more epic Starscream moments than that five-minute sequence (can't remember the ep) where Starscream plowed through around a dozen Autobots to get the Omega Lock, and succeeded. I thought that was a pretty impressive moment.

Definately Animated Starscream, hed kick your ass and tell it to your face that he was gonna kick your ass! And hes immortal, except for when you take the Allspark out of his head. Animated Starscream had a cheap death, but alll the other SCs where beaten fairly in battle, Starscream was beaten by Megatron a few times, and he betrayed Megatron in his face, but Megatron still needed Starscream to do his work for him, even when he was just a head.

He was another contender, for me. I suppose I'm simply biased since Cybertron was a series that I watched heavily.

My vote is Bayverse, honestly. Because in canon he more or less actually was in charge of the 'cons for a while. And while that did not go entirely well for him (*cough cough Blackout*) he had to have been more or less competent.

Plus, his design has really grown on me.

Second? The moron eyerolly fangirl in me wants to say Armada for the whole teen angstitude angle, but....no. Going to have to go with G1.

HK, I love TFA but Chinscream doesn't really...work for me? :shock:

of all of the Starscreams ever made or shown in a series, they all are just different incarnations of G1.

I love G1 Starscream the most. Sure hisdeath in the movie sucked, but even bayverse is no more than a G1-esque Starscream.

Though the G1 cartoon was cheesey, I found Starscream to be slightly smarter than Megatron, but at times arrogantly stupid.

When exiting the ark, he had the idea to leave after getting energy, but Megs insited to stay...smart. The Starry shoots at the ark causing who else but Prime to be awaken first..arrogantly stupid.

He creates the strongest gestault, Bruticus. But his arrogance causes him to lose from a sneak attack by Mensaor.

As for Armada/Micron Legened, I like that version of Starscream too. he died a hero and yes you wanted to cry too.

I always like star scream. He did kick ever ones ass for leadership in the Cartoon movie. He kick some major butt in the first live action movie, but suck in the second. Great character in any version, but should have finished the job on Mega-tron when he had the chance, come on Newb.

Armada. Well developed and able to be liked. Very interesting twist on Starscream.

Starscream's great anywhere but I prefer the depiction in Bayverse films where he's most realistic. You see how versatile he is against ground targets, aerial targets, towers, humans, power plants, etc. This is his natural element, strafing the heck out of everyone and occasionally landing for specific shots and beatings.
