Title:
Dirge 1st Seeker
Description:
Dirge (Decepticon Plane, 1985/1986)
Japanese ID number: 97
Accessories: Left & right fists, front landing gear, 2 concussion missiles
A retool of the Starscream mold, Dirge transforms into a modified F-15 fighter jet with a delta wing and front canard. The spring-loaded missile launchers were replaced with simplified non-firing... rifle barrels?In robot mode his official instructions have the user pulling down his nose cone to complete his head transformation, like Starscream. However, Dirge’s character model depicts him as having his head untransformed, leaving a distinctive ”conehead” shape to his appearance. This trait is shared by Thrust and Ramjet, leading many owners to do the same thing to differentiate the three later Decepticon jets from the three earlier ones. Dirge’s robot mode stickers are the same design as Thundercracker’s, but in different colors.In Japan, Dirge was only available as a mail-away in 1986 (for 1980 yen and 4 Robot Points).This sculpt was also used to make Ramjet, Skywarp, Sunstorm, Thrust, and Thundercracker.
