I detect fear in you, Autobot. You're scared, and I don't blame you at all.
~ Thundercracker upon defeating Cliffjumper.

Thundercracker is a major antagonist in the Transformers film series. While not appearing in the films themselves, he appears in the expanded comics, written and published by IDW. He is a Seeker who served as Starscream's second-in-command of the Decepticons, following Megatron's demise.

Personality[]

Unlike Starscream, Thundercracker is a loyalist to a fault. He is very willing to serve the Decepticon cause and work under the orders given to him, regardless of who is under command. Working with Flatline has also led him to expand more upon his scientific knowledge, allowing him to work with space bridge technology to create one that can send him back to Cybertron.

When facing against the Autobots, Thundercracker senses fear within them and enjoys inflicting upon it further. He does not hold grudges of any sort, however, as when he received a scar across his neck from Arcee, he instead acknowledges it as a fault of his own doing.

Biography[]

Defiance[]

During the pre war era on Cybertron, Thundercracker is depicted as being a member of the Cybertron Defence Force commanded by Protector Megatron. After aliens from the Eshems Nebula attacked Cybertron, Thundercracker, Starscream and Skywarp were among the flight-capable forces sent up to face them. After Megatron announced a ruthless counterattack, Thundercracker flew up to their fleet, and competed with Ramjet over how many ships they destroyed. When the flagship was reached, Thundercracker and the rest of the Defence Force began tearing into it.

Dawn of the Civil War[]

After Megatron discovered that Science Division leader Optimus had snooped through his things, he issued orders for the scientist's arrest, but assigned the team of Starscream and Thundercracker to assassinate Optimus' escorts. However, they underestimated the scientist's fighting prowess and paid for it when an entire city collapsed on top of his head. They survived, and Thundercracker witness Megatron's resulting speech, where he declared Optimus's followers traitors and the Defence Force would be reformed into a new faction: the Decepticons.
