Starscream`s first toy began life as “Jet Robo” from the Diaclone line; transforming into a grey; red and blue F-15 Eagle fighter jet. To transform Starscream; one must essentially take most of his plane parts off and transform his body; then reattach most of plane parts on again; along with the addition of two blue fists. If you don`t mind being fiddly; though; transformation can certainly be achieved by only removing the fists; weapons and landing gear (which can store in Starscream`s cockpit). Owing to the modular nature of his design and the fact that it is impossible to store all the parts in either mode; it can be quite difficult to find an intact original set of this toy.

Starscream is armed with a pair of missile launchers that mount on his arms in robot mode; and under his wings in jet mode; with a pair of specialized projectiles for each. In jet mode; two short “cluster bomb” projectiles are fitted into the launchers to make them resemble the drop tanks a real F-15 carries; while in robot mode; they are replaced with the long barrels of Starscream`s null-rays. The original Diaclone version of the mold featured spring-loaded firing mechanisms in these launchers; while this feature was removed for the Hasbro release of the toy; it was left intact for the Takara version; and all subsequent reissues.

The Diaclone version of the Starscream mold featured tailfins with solid tips and solid fists; and both these features carried over to the earliest Transformers releases. Soon; however; the Transformers mold was modified to add hollow tips to the fins; and tabs to the insides of the fists to allow them to hold onto his arms tighter; resulting in a visible slit on either side of each one. These altered versions became the standard for all subsequent reissues of the mold. Like all his 1984 brethren; a rubsign was added to Starscream in 1985.
Presumably by mistake; the stats on Starscream; Skywarp; and Thundercracker`s Tech Specs were switched around. Starscream`s box was given Thundercracker`s numbers; notably giving him a lower rank and speed that stood in contrast to the bio printed next to them.

The Italian release of Starscream (as “Astrum”) by GiG put him in a generic “Distructor

Planes” box; featuring names and tech specs for all three planes in the assortment.

Starscream`s mold was redecoed into the concurrently-available Thundercracker and Skywarp. It would later be redecoed again to make Sunstorm; and retooled into Dirge; Ramjet; and Thrust. On top of this; given his role as a major Generation 1 character; Starscream himself would be reissued many times down the years; the first being still in his original packaging in Australia in 1990.

Subsequent reissues had more distinctive presentation; and this article strives to list each one under its own header. The long lifespan of his toy actually began in 1986; when Starscream remained part of the assortment for that year despite the departure of nearly every other 1984 toy from store shelves.
