'''Windrazor''' leads the [[Skyscorcher]]s, a team of Decepticon jets. He holds the goal of [[Autobot]] annihilation above all else, including the lives of himself and his teammates. This single-minded ideal fuels his sick genius in battle.

He is also known as '''Tornado'''.

==Fiction==
===Fleetway ''Generation 2'' comic===
[[Image:Windrazor-UKG2comic.jpg|left|125px|thumb|Meet the new boss.]]

Tornado was part of [[Bludgeon (G1)|Bludgeon's]] team who went to [[Earth]] to lure out [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]]. After blowing the living crap out of a lot of buildings, he landed to tell Bludgeon that he and his troops were running low on fuel. But before Bludgeon could give the command to withdraw and refuel, Tornado was promptly blasted by their intended target, Optimus Prime. {{storylink|War Without End (issue)|War Without End}}

It apparently wasn't a critical blow, since he was able to fly away and gather up [[Eagle Eye (G2)|Hawk]] and [[Terradive (G2)|Terradive]], calling them away so they could tackle a new target; [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]], who had appeared to take out both Optimus Prime ''and'' Bludgeon. He attacked Megatron, and from there it's unknown how he fared. It's possible he was taken prisoner by the [[Autobot]]s along with several other Decepticons. {{storylink|War Zone|War Zone}}

===''Wings Universe''===
Windrazor was part of the "second generation" of Transformers created on [[Earth]] at the [[Cyberfactory]]. Although born without a faction, he soon chose one anyways and joined [[Clench (G1)|Clench]]'s [[Decepticon Syndicate]] alongside many others. {{storylink|Generation 2: Redux}}

===IDW Generation 1 comics===
Windrazor served under the command of [[Turmoil]] when their second-in-command [[Drift (G1)|Deadlock]] abandoned his post. {{storylink|Drift issue 1|Drift #1}}

==Toys==
===Generation 1===
*'''Tornado''' (Skyscorcher, 1993)
**''Accessories'': Radar array/rifle

: Tornado transforms into a General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon fighter jet. His undercarriage radar becomes a hand-held non-firing blaster weapon for robot mode.

: He was originally sold in the European market in 1993 as part of the "transitional" line that used the ''Generation 2'' [[insignia]]s, but lacked the new subline name. He was later released in the United States, with no notable changes beyond a new name, as part of the ''Generation 2'' line. He was then later ''re''-released in the European version of ''Generation 2'' in 1994.

: This toy is [[gang-molding|gang-molded]] with [[Afterburner (G2)|Afterburner]].

::*''[http://www.tfu.info/1993/Decepticon/Windrazor/windrazor.htm More information on Windrazor at TFU.info]''

===Generation 2===
*'''Windrazor/Tornado''' (Skyscorcher, 1993/1994)
**''Accessories'': Radar array/rifle

: Released in the United States in 1993, ''Generation 2'' Windrazor is identical to the concurrent European "Generation 1" Tornado toy. Tornado was re-released in the European ''Generation 2'' line the following year.

===Block Town===
*'''Airport Building Set''' (Block Town, 1996)
**''Accessories'': Radar array/rifle, airport building brick set
[[Image:Windrazor-BT.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Totally not evil now, really.]]

: Windrazor's mold was one of several intended to be used in the post-''G-2'' [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] ''[[Block Town]]'' line, as an Autobot. To be [[redeco]]ed in white, he was to come with the '''TFBT-3 Airport Building Set''', a building-block airport tower that could be rebuilt into a battle station of some form. This set ultimately never came to release.

: In 2005, a supposed Takara "release" schedule listed the Block Town sets among several other future items coming out. Only the ''[[Cybertron (franchise)|Galaxy Force]]'' items on that list saw release, however (and some only as store [[exclusive]]s to boot).

:Given that Windrazor's Japanese name was revealed on a [[BotCon|BotCon Japan]]-exclusive poster to be "Sky Tornado" - a poster that also showed Windbreaker's Japanese name as being "Carzap", which was what the Block Town Windbreaker redeco showed up as in ''[[Transformers Generations]]'' - it's likely that the Block Town Windrazor was going to be named "Sky Tornado" as well. The whole "Autobot" thing makes the issue somewhat hazy, though.

==Notes==
[[Image:WindrazorWasWhirlwind.jpg|thumb|250px|]]
*A piece of internal documentation containing an unfinished version of Windrazor's cardback once turned up on [[eBay]], evidently from the collection of a former [[Hasbro]] employee. This mockup shows that Windrazor once had the preproduction name of "'''Whirlwind'''".

* Though Windrazor was never released in Japan, he did gain a Japanese name via a [[BotCon Japan 1997]] [[exclusive]] [http://botcon.com/archive/1997j/bcj97post2f.jpg poster], which featured bios for all of the new ''Generation 2'' characters released in the US who weren't part of the Japanese line: the [[Axelerator]]s, the [[Skyscorcher]]s, [[Rotor Force]], four of the [[Go-Bot (G2)|Go-Bots]] and the [[Color Changer]]s.

===Foreign names===
*''Japanese:'' '''Sky Tornado''' (スカイトーネード ''Sukai Tōnēdo'')

Derrick posted an image of shattered glass isaac sumdac on his deviantart account, would this count? {{unsigned|66.131.45.156}}
:Unfortunately no. Unless it's reproduced in an official publication, we can't use it here. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 17:41, 31 October 2011 (EDT)

== Technodrome ==

On the lithograph, it's "technodrome", in the AllSpark Almanac Addendum it's "Terrordrome". I guess we should stick with the first name since [[Terrordrome]] is already a G.I. Joe thing? --[[User:Abates|abates]] 04:00, 8 June 2012 (EDT)
:For what it's worth, Technodrome was a mistake. Derrick asked me to correct it to Terrordrome in the Addendums. --[[Special:Contributions/71.235.80.16|71.235.80.16]] 07:21, 8 June 2012 (EDT)
