Wingwaver is two Autobots from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Laughed at his name so hard that his sides are splitting.

Wingwaver (ウイングウェーバー Uinguwēbā) is the combined form of the Autobot Multiforce members Wing and Waver, combining Wing's forceful and charismatic personality with Waver's calm and thoughtful demeanor, resulting in a charismatic, forceful team leader. It's small wonder that this is the form the two are most often seen in, even when not engaged in battle. Of course, even Waver's influence on the pair can only do so much, which leads to Wingwaver occasionally overreacting to slights and charging foolishly into battle.

This combination also allows the two to merge their already-impressive wind and water powers into a devastating typhoon attack, the "Multi-Dead Hurricane".

Wingwaver was the somewhat hot-headed leader of the Autobot Multiforce, operating under Star Saber's supervision when the latter was promoted to become Supreme Commander of all the Autobots. The Brave Hero of the Universe - Star Saber The Multiforce comprised a sizeable portion of Star Saber's forces, and settled on Earth shortly after their leader's promotion. Wingwaver was still something of a junior officer, leader of his own troops but still a rookie in the eyes of Star Saber's other troops, the Brainmasters, especially their veteran leader Blacker. Wingwaver often felt like he needed to justify himself to Blacker, and made careless mistakes at times because of that. He once accidentally gave away the Autobots' position during a covert mission that depended on reaching the Decepticon installation undetected. Despite this, Blacker took responsibility for his actions when questioned by Star Saber, and this eased Wingwaver's self-doubt somewhat. Explosion!! The Energy Base

Zone cartoon

[edit]

The Multiforce, as Landcross, continued to be an active element in the Autobot forces even after Victory Saber retired and passed on command to Dai Atlas. Enter the New Supreme Commander, Dai Atlas!

Micromaster

[edit]

After stumbling into the past through a dimensional rift, Wing, Waver, and the rest of the Multiforce joined forces with the Autobots from the local timeframe. Wing and Waver combined into Wingwave to take on Decepticon Sixbuilders, but struggled with fending off the Decepticons when Berserker Sixwing joined the fight. Wingwaver then separated into his components so that they could recombine into Landcross and defeat the more formidable opponent. The Menace of Landcross's Combining Formation!

Victory comic

[edit]

After receiving an S.O.S. from the Earth, Star Saber had Wingwaver, Dashtacker and Machtackle join him in battling the Decepticons causing trouble there. They battled Dinoking as Landcross. So Cool! Our Ally, Star Saber!

When Star Saber was alerted that Leozack was terrorizing the Earth, he left Wingwaver, Machtackle, and Dashtacker stationed at the Galaxy Shuttle while he dealt with the situation himself. Leozack's Rampage!

Dreamwave Generation One continuity

[edit]
Dumps like a tru—No, wait, that's Dashtacker.

Wingwaver was among a crowd of Autobots that had assembled to hear Prowl totally fail to give a speech about how great things were really going to be on Cybertron after the toppling of Shockwave's supposedly-benevolent rule. Skyfire

Toys

[edit]

Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers

[edit]

  • ID number: C-316
  • Accessories: "Multi-Wing Gun", "Multi-Waver Gun", "Punch Part B" Landcross left fist, Landcross head
  • Known designers: Kōjin Ōno (TakaraTomy){{#if: |, {{{2}}}}}
Wingwaver is the combined mode of the individuals Wing and Waver, sold together in a two-pack in the Victory portion of Takara's Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers toyline. Wing forms the top half of the combiner, while Waver forms the lower. He can also be swung around into "Waverwing" mode, with a new Waver-dominant head revealed in this form. Of course, the two individuals can also combine with any other member of Multiforce in similar fashion.
Wingwaver also forms the torso to the team's combined Landcross mode, with Wing and Waver once again in the upper and lower positions, respectively. Theoretically the two can also form limbs to the combiner (as they all share the same general engineering and transformation scheme), but they are the only bots on the team who have the proper connectors to properly attach limb-bots and super robot armor, and only in their nominal upper/lower postitions at that.
Wingwaver came with a pair of cards, each featuring bio and battle info for the pairing.
In 1995, the three Multiforce two-packs were released in mainland China as part of the severely-delayed Hasbro-distributed Chinese Transformers toyline. They came in slightly-modified versions of their original packaging, with the characters' names now written in Chinese, and the Japanese Transformers logo replaced with a similarly styled Chinese language logo saying "Battles of Victory" (胜利之斗争). They toys themselves are also slightly modified, with their molded-on legal/manufacturing information blotted out and modified to remove Takara's name.


  • Landcross (Multiforce gift set, 1989)
  • ID number: C-319
  • Accessories: "Multi-Wing Gun", "Multi-Waver Gun", "Punch Part B" Landcross left fist, Landcross head
  • Known designers: Kōjin Ōno (TakaraTomy){{#if: |, {{{2}}}}}
Wingwaver was also available in a gift set containing the entire Multiforce team. All of the toys in this set are physically identical to their individual releases.
However, this set does not include the bio/trading cards for any of the component duos, only the combined Landcross mode.


Micromaster

[edit]
  • Wing (DX Micromaster, 2002)
  • Micromaster ID number: 1
  • Accessories: "Multi-Wing Gun", Landcross head
  • Waver (DX Micromaster, 2002)
  • Micromaster ID number: 2
  • Accessories: "Multi-Waver Gun", "Punch Part B" Landcross left fist
Takara re-released Multiforce in the final wave of the Micromaster series, as "DX Micromasters". Wingwaver was never sold as a "complete" robot; you had to separately-purchase his individually-boxed components Wing and Waver. The boxes have a small hole in the front to show a number printed on the instructions, revealing which toy is inside.
These toys have slight deco differences from their original releases, see the individual components' pages for further details.


  • Wing Stealth Mode (DX Micromaster, 2002)
  • Micromaster ID number: 1
  • Accessories: "Multi-Wing Gun", Landcross head
  • Waver Stealth Mode (DX Micromaster, 2002)
  • Micromaster ID number: 2
  • Accessories: "Multi-Waver Gun", "Punch Part B" Landcross left fist
Both individuals were also available as black "Stealth Mode" chase figures, with two randomly-chosen boxes per case of twelve toys replaced with the chase versions. And no, you can't peek in through the hole in the box to see if it's a chase or not, as the instructions block it off.
