Sunstorm

Sunstorm, Decepticon age of sun and night

Sunstorm, is a Sycophant Decepticon, but a humble type of seeker, built from the same chassis as his most brilliant commander, Starscream, as well as his flattering, "suck-up" nature incarnate. He will offer his fawning platitudes to anyone within eyesight. All he asks is to offer his meager energy-absorption powers in the services of that amazing genius, Starscream, and he can also beg to please you by blinding your enemies with flashes of brilliant light. Needless to say, that amazing genius Starscream likes him a lot.

Though he would never compare his abilities to another seeker, this overriding personality trait does not seem to affect his performance as a warrior too badly. He just heaps praise on his deserving victims for their efforts, even when he's somehow winning. He does, however, have a knack for talking when he should be shooting. Of course, he's not nearly as awesome as you, wonderful article reader. You're so cool!

Uh oh I'm gonna poop

Appearance

Voice actor: Steve Blum (English), Tadashi Miyazawa (Japanese)

Yet another seeker under the command of Starscream has appeared on Earth to threaten the Autobots and Teen Titans. Sunstorm is a cackling madman, determined to destroy everything in his path. He is also a living power battery, absorbing any energy directed at him, from sunlight to high-powered lasers. Only Ratchet has the scientific know-how to develop a device capable of defeating such a powerful new enemy.

As a Seeker, he has no Cybertronian-based veichle mode, but he has an Earth-based veichle mode of a Harrier Jet (based on Starscream's jet mode.)

Attributes:

• Absorbs energy to use as powerful laser blasts.
• Can generate blinding flashes of light.
• Fastest of the Seekers.

Weapons & Abilites

Like the other Seekers, he possess incredible speed and firepower, enough to put even Megatron off balance. However, the incomplete personalities of most of the clones mean that they are generally less effective than Starscream (if even more entertaining to watch).
