- Sawback is an Autobot Mini-Con from the Robots in Disguise portion of the Aligned continuity family.
Sawback loves fetch, and he can track his target from miles away. Sometimes this target is a stick; more often, this target is a Decepticon. But once his target is acquired, this noble beast often lets him go, trusting that his brush with the law will set him back on the straight and narrow. And if it doesn't, there's nowhere he can hide.
Most of that is not true when the target is a stick.
