Revision as of 08:14, 11 April 2007
- Buzz Saw is a Predacon character in the Beast Wars and a Maximal in the Beast Machines portions of the Generation 1 continuity family. His name is also parsed as Buzzsaw.
Buzz Saw fights on the Predacon side in the Beast Wars on prehistoric Earth. Using his skills in aerial surveillance, he locates his prey from above, then "stings" with his paralyzing missiles. And then he tells everyone what a great job he did.
He later returns to Cybertron and joins the Maximals.
Pre-release name (Beast Machines): Mudobber and Sting
Fiction
Timelines: Intimidation Game script reading
The Tripredacus agent Flamewar was held prisoner and interrogated by a group of Autobots and Maximals. However, this was actually a ruse perpetrated by Scourge and a group of Megatron followers, among them Buzz Saw (disguised as Obsidian).
IDW Beast Wars comics
Buzz Saw was one of the protoforms on Earth reprogrammed into Predacons by Magmatron. He was sent to search for Razorbeast and his team of Maximals from the air by the recently revived Ravage. When Sky Shadow discovered the Maximals lair, Buzz Saw was among the Predacons who participated in the battle that ensued. After being beaten by the Maximals and their newly arrived reinforcements, Buzz Saw presumably retreated along with the other Predacons. The Gathering
Beast Machines toy bio
