Fiction

Ask Vector Prime

In Tyran 511.0 Kappa, Wild Rider managed to successfully elude Cemetery Wind. Once Optimus Prime put out a call to remaining Autobots to gather, he and Axel answered out of desperation. Though the Autobots remained skeptical of their true intentions, they learned to appreciate Wild Rider, who in turned remained loyal to the Autobot cause even after Galvatron revealed himself and went on a rampage. Axel, however, betrayed the team to Lockdown. Ask Vector Prime, 16/9/2015

Toys

Speed Stars

  • Wild Rider (Mini Vehicle, 2011?)
    • Series: Double Siders Series
    • Number:
Wild Rider is a small, non-transforming, die-cast sports car with his robot mode sculpted underneath. He has huge wheels to allow the toy to roll upside down, and they use through-axle construction that lets the toy zip around at high speeds on smooth surfaces.

End of the road.
This Robot Powered Machines/Speed Stars item has been canceled, with no current plans for release.

Notes

  • As Wild Rider's toy had no insignias and in-package pictures never surfaced, it wasn't actually confirmed that he was a Decepticon until his packaging art showed up on the Indigo Studios website. Still, it was a pretty safe bet, as the name "Wildrider" has only ever been applied to Decepticons.
  • Wild Rider's sculpted robot mode details appear to be based on the Classics Rodimus toy. This was presumably intentional!
