- Screech is a Decepticon Action Master partner from the Generation 1 continuity family.
It's alright 'cause I'm saved by th- OW HEY QUIT IT YOU GUYS
As Take-Off believes in air superiority, Screech is a perfect partner for him, as the vicious avian can combine with the larger robot to give him flight capabilities and infra-red tracking to locate more targets. Even by himself, Screech is dangerous, packing neutron laser demagnetizer cannons that can evaporate the energon from within an Autobot target's body.

The Transformers
-
- Released in the seventh year of the European-market Transformers toyline (the first year following the end of the US line), Screech is a small, robotic bird-creature. Pressing a trigger on his rear section spring-launches his head forward; while this is pointless by himself, when Screech is plugged onto the back of any other standard Action Master, the beast-head flips over their head to act as a battle helmet.
- He was only available packed in with his larger partner Take-Off.
- As part of the European-only portion of Transformers, and unique molds to boot, Take-Off and Screech can go for some pretty hefty prices on the secondary market.

Notes
- Take-Off's bio calls Screech an "eagle scout". This may or may not be a punny reference, but either way, if Screech is an "eagle", it's a very liberal interpretation of one, even by Transformers's loose standards of beast mode accuracy.
- He is not played by Dustin Diamond.
