Tripredacus is a Predacon combiner from the Beast Wars portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Surprisingly, not Violengiguar.

Tripredacus is a slimy "Battle Master" who prefers to emerge from underground to attack Maximal fortresses in the dead of night, tenaciously crushing all before him, spreading plague-like destruction wherever he goes. The weapons of his composite members form a slashing mega-missile launcher that he uses to tear his way into battle.

Tripredacus is composed of the three-member Tripredacus Council:

The Maximal tactical response was the Maximal combiner Magnaboss.

Fiction

[edit]

Beast Wars: Uprising

[edit]

Tripredacus formed during the final battle of the Grand Uprising using technology stolen from Magnaboss of the Maximal Nation. Taking advantage of their combined form, the Tripredacus Council tracked down Preditron and - after the original founder of the Predacons refused to kneel to their might - beat him to death.

He would be avenged by Ser-Ket, who hurled herself at the combiner and attacked the monster's thigh joints at point-blank. She was able to force them apart, leaving Sea Clamp half-dead. Cicadacon was shot in the back by Ram Horn, who had learned through the gestalt's mind that the other two members of the Council thought him a useful idiot. Derailment

Sold as 3-pack at the Ultra Class price point, Beast Wars Tripredacus is the combined form of Ram Horn, Sea Clamp, and Cicadacon. The three members' individual weapons combine to form a "mega-missile launcher". An undocumented feature is that by slotting his neck onto his body to complete his transformation, one can untab his head to give him a ball-jointed neck.
Unlike his rival Magnaboss, his arms are asymmetrical. For their time, he and Magnaboss were some of the most complicated combiners in the entire Transformers franchise.
This mold was used for Beast Wars II's Tripledacus.
