Generations Thundercracker

[Dominic]

Well, it could be worse. Imagine if was written like a "Hunt for the Decepticons" profile.

Thundercracker has real doubts about the Decepticons. He wonders of all of the killing and destruction are really necessary. Might there be a better way? Thundercracker often spends time along pondering this and re-evaluating his life. Unfortunately for him, he will never get the chance to really change, because the Autobots are looking for him. And, when they find Thundercracker, they are going to break his wings and stomp his face into the curb. The sad irony is that while amidst all of the killing, everybody will be wishing there were some other way.

No no, you have to have it cross-reference one of the other toys in this wave, possibly someone entirely inappropriate, like this:

Now, how to work Scourge in to this....

After this, Thundercracker will travel into space to become the Unicronian warrior Decepticon Scourge.

I can't wait for the day when a toy is officially titled something like "Hasbro Transformer Autobot Ratchet". They have to make the box bigger specially.

How about this?

Thundercracker has real doubts about the Decepticons. He wonders of all of the killing and destruction are really necessary. Might there be a better way? Thundercracker often spends time along pondering this and re-evaluating his life. A cryptic warning from Decepticon Scourge, who claims to be Thundercracker's future self, has given Thundercracker more to think about. However, this is a bad time for Thundercracker to be distracted. Autobot Wheeljack is looking for him. And, when Wheeljack finds Thundercracker, he's going to break Thundercracker's wings and stomp his face into the curb. Thundercracker might consider death to be a mercy instead of living with the memories of the whoop=ass can that Wheeljack is gonna open up.

[Onslaught Six]

It still needs something about Wheeljack's electro-can opener that he'll use. And it needs to acknowledge some absolutely inconceivable ability that is never used in fiction, like flying so fast he causes sonic booms.

Thundercracker will have to use all of his sound barrier shattering speed to escape the wrath of Wheeljack!

Well, if we're going movie-style...

Thundercracker's long since tired of the life of a Decepticon Soldier. He's been good at inspiring terror with his sonic boom attacks, but he doesn't know if it's worth it at all. In fact, he's out looking for an Autobot to surrender to so he can defect to the Autobot side. Unfortunately for him, he's run into Autobot Wheeljack, who doesn't accept surrender. Autobot Wheeljack intends to break his wings, tear off Thundercracker's face, stomp the stump from where his face used to be onto the curb, and then lubricate on him.

As far as the toy goes, I'd do a proper review, but c'mon. If you like the mold, this is a REALLY good iteration of it. The paint all looks really good, the joints are all really tight, and the silvery paint on this version is really nice and shiny. This thing's great, seriously, I'm really excited by this toy, and it's one I've already got a damn stack of already.

Scourge should write character profiles. He totally should.
