Crackder
A "Change-Bot" that appeared in issue 4 of Sonichu. A jet-style Transformer not unlike the Seekers, i.e. the many repaints of Starscream. Formerly an off-brand generic Transformer, like a Gobot, Crackder has since been upgraded to be a Decepti-Clone, and thus an actual Transformer, again like the Gobots.
His name is a portmanteau of the Decepticons Thundercracker and...um...Thundercracker.
“ | JETS Loud and Fast like lightning, the Crackder Bots are equipped with Missiles in Vehicle Mode and a Cannon in Robot Mode. They Fly through air; they are the quickest of the Trio of Mary's Decepti-Clones, and most deadly and cunning. | ” |
Crackder is not even allowed to be a single individual.[1] |
It's debatable whether Chris took Crackder from Transformers Animated or G1; If one takes in consideration the fact that there is more than one Crackder (a.k.a. clones), it is then more plausible that Crackder's model comes from the Animated continuity for Thundercracker is one of Starscream's clones. Also, the adjective "most cunning" may probably make reference to Starscream's intelligent and deceitful nature.
