'''Killbison''' is the stereotypical violent jock of the Decepticon [[Breastforce]] team. He transforms into a double-barreled tank, and like all tanks, his barrels will either be (a) bent backwards (b) yanked at or (c) made useless once the first step has been completed. His [[Breast Animal]] partner is [[Bisonbreast]], a winged bull, who does not fly and is not red. This does not keep Killbison from joining with his fellow teammates to form [[Liokaiser]].

His hobbies include throwing knives at pictures conveniently hung on doors, and giving the finger every time he gets the spotlight.

(But does he kill bison? If he does, does he use every part, or does he destroy such magnificent beasts only for their tongues? Ah, the unanswered questions of life.)

:''Hacksaw is an [[Autobot]] [[Mini-Con]] from the [[Classics (2006)|Classics]] portion of the [[Generation 1 (franchise)|Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:TheNewWorld Hacksaw.JPG|right|200px|thumb|Teh leet Hacksaw.]]
Leader of the mighty Mini-Con [[Dinobots (Mini-Cons)|Dinobots]], '''Hacksaw''''s ''Stegosaurus'' form belies his true nature — although he's just as tough and strong as the pea-brained beast, he's a good deal smarter. His occasional lapses into [[Grimlock (G1)|Grimlock]]-style grammar mask his wisdom, but his colleagues know that he's a stoic leader and a loyal friend. He ''is'' still a Dinobot, though... which means he's not above fighting dirty, especially with his arm-mounted battle-ax.

{{bigquote|''If you cannot take risks, if you cannot sacrifice... then you are not strong. And you will never be strong.''|—Hacksaw to [[Broadside (Classics)|Broadside]], [[The New World]]}}

==Fiction==
===Marvel Comics continuity===
====''Classics''====
One of the Mini-Cons created by the [[Last Autobot]] to rebuild [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], Hacksaw served as [[Modus Prime]]'s second-in-command. He often led his Dinobots in missions to the planet's [[Underworld]], where they battled packs of marauding [[Mutant (G1)|mutants]]. On one such mission, they encountered his friend [[Broadside (Classics)|Broadside]] and the [[Predator Attack Team]]. During their brief encounter, Hacksaw had to prevent [[Terrorsaur (Classics)|Terrorsaur]] from getting into a scrap with [[Overbite (Classics)|Overbite]].

Later, [[Knockdown (Classics)|Knockdown]] informed Hacksaw of a suspicious conversation he'd overheard Broadside having with some shady characters at [[Maccadam's Old Oil House]]. Armed with that knowledge, he went to see Modus Prime at an energon plant—only for the plant to explode just as he arrived. The explosion, which Broadside claimed had been caused by a deranged Autobot [[bulk]], killed a number of Mini-Cons, including Modus Prime, making Hacksaw the new Mini-Con leader. His first command as leader was to inspect the bulk's body, only to find that it had been destroyed by [[Wideload (Classics)|Wideload]] and [[Sledge (Classics)|Sledge]], whom Knockdown had seen in Maccadam's with Broadside.

Knockdown called the [[Clear Skies Team]] and the [[Night Rescue Team]] to a meeting with his Dinobots, where [[Strongarm (Classics)|Strongarm]] presented evidence that indicated that the incident had been planned. As the Autobot Mini-Cons bickered over how to best act on their suspicions, Hacksaw departed alone to investigate a disruption at [[Proximax]]'s [[trans-hyperwave caster tower]]. Up on the tower's scaffolding, he found [[Oil Slick (Classics)|Oil Slick]] and [[Dirt Rocket]] tinkering with the tower's systems. After a brief altercation with them, he was ambushed by their partner [[Grindor (Classics)|Grindor]]. In the brutal battle that followed, Hacksaw was stabbed repeatedly by Oil Slick, but still managed to incapacitate all three of his opponents brutally. As he tried to ply Dirt Rocket for information, he was confronted by their employer—Broadside.

Broadside explained that he had ordered his underlings to send a warning to the Autobots to stay away from Cybertron, in order to prevent the Last Autobot, who had given them life, from returning and reclaiming that life. Hacksaw angrily disagreed with his claims, and the two began to battle. As they fought, Broadside explained how he had uncovered the [[datatrax]] of the fallen [[Decepticon]] leader [[Scorponok (G1)|Scorponok]], and how he planned to emulate him in uniting the Mini-Cons against the bulks. Crazed, he struck a mighty blow against Hacksaw, sending him toppling over the shattered edge of the scaffolding. Broadside grabbed the Dinobot's arm, and pleaded with him to join him in his crusade to make their people strong. His eyes full of pity for his former friend, Hacksaw told the Decepticon that he would never be strong. Broadside relaxed his grip, and Hacksaw plummeted silently to his death.

Broadside tried to blame Hacksaw's death on "unknown assailants", but a recording of his final moments revealed Broadside's ruse, opening up a schism in Cybertron's Mini-Con population and sending them plunging into a civil war. {{storylink|The New World|The New World}}
