Saw Boss is an Autobot-allied Gigantion Mini-Con from the Cybertron portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.

The indefatigable Saw Boss is a member of the Steel Reinforcement Team, the personal attendants of the Giant Planet leader Metroplex. He has a staggeringly positive outlook on life, which is surprising given the phenomenal bad luck he brings. If something can go wrong around him, it probably will—not that this ever seems to bother Saw Boss. He just charges head-first into life's next challenge.[1]
