All parts and accessories: Starscream (War for Cybertron: Earthrise)
When the Transformers cartoon began in 1984, the Autobots had a significant numerical advantage over their opponents. For toys, there were 11 Autobot cars, six mini-cars, and Optimus Prime, for a total of 18 good guys. The Decepticons had Megatron, Soundwave and his five cassettes, and the three Seeker jets, for a total of 10. Sunbow Productions bolstered the Decepticon numbers in a number of ways in early episodes of the series, including the addition of "generic" Seekers; they had bodies in the form of Starscream/Skywarp/Thundercracker, but with different colours schemes and no names. A set of three more Seekers is therefore needed to represent these characters, but with names and personalities and everything. They are Crosswind, Nosedive, and Overshot.
Tech Specs:
DECEPTICON - CROSSWIND
"The sky is my playground."
CROSSWIND loves to fly. Nearly as fast as STARSCREAM himself, reaching Mach 2.7. Thinks that speed and more speed is always the key to victory. Arrogant and dismissive of anyone slower than him. Carries delayed-fuse firebombs and magnetic rail guns for armaments. Sometimes puts himself in difficult situations by showing off instead of doing his job.

Transformers Universe Profile:
CROSSWIND
Allegiance: Decepticons
Sub-Group: Seekers
Function: Air Warrior
"The sky is my playground."
Profile: No one loves to fly more than Crosswind. Not any of the other Seekers, not anyone. Travelling nearly as fast as Starscream himself, Crosswind delights in climbing, diving, banking and turning, doing loop-de-loops and barrel rolls. The more difficult and dangerous the maneuver, the more he likes it. He firmly believes that speed is the key to victory in any battle. Just speed and more speed. Most other Decepticons consider him to be an arrogant show-off, and he is indeed contemptuous and dismissive of anything slower than he is. Crosswind believes that anything slower than Mach 2 isn't worth anyone's attention.
Abilities: In his alternate mode, Crosswind's maximum speed of Mach 2.7 makes him one of the very fastest Decepticons on Earth. His advanced gyroscopic compensators and aero-capacitors allow him to execute maneuvers that other Transformers can only dream of. In battle he uses two delayed-fuse firebombs, which wreak havoc over a wide area on the ground, and two magnetic rail guns, which fire deadly projectiles at incredible speeds, but have a low rate of fire.
Weaknesses: Crosswind's propensity to show off causes problems. He will always go for the spectacular move, regardless of whether there are better tactical options. He will abandon a superior position in order to execute a dangerous maneuver, just because it's a dangerous maneuver.
