Cartoon Overview
Out of all Starscream's clones, the Thundercracker-colored one is probably closest to the original. Described as an egomaniac by the female Starscream clone, his main habits including bragging about how great he is, about how much others are not fit to be in his presence, and about how his one-liners are so much better than his opponent's one-liners.

Unfortunately his ego was his downfall - during Starscream's assault on Megatron's fortress, the Egomaniac got into a fight with Mixmaster, who hit the Egomaniac full on with a blast of cement, immobilizing him and causing him to tumble out of control. He collided with the Cowardly Skywarp and Blurr, entangling them both in the cement around him, then all three fell through the Spacebridge to an unknown destination.

On an unknown planetoid, Egomaniac Thundercracker entertained a suggestion from Blurr, and was able to free all three Transformers from Mixmaster's cement. He tried to attack Blurr and continue their earlier battle, but Blurr ran, intent on getting to Cybertron with word of the traitor on the planet. Thundercracker was last seen receiving a kick to the face as Blurr used him as a springboard as he began his run across the galaxy to get back to Cybertron.

Powers and abilities

Like Starscream, his clones all 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).
