The name or term "Maverick" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Maverick (disambiguation).
Maverick is a Unicron-allied Mini-Con from the Armada portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.
I feel the need...the need for speed! (Maverick is the topmost one.)

Maverick is a member of the Aerial Extermination Mini-Con Team, and a personal attendant to Nemesis Prime. Staunchly loyal to Unicron's goals, this assassin strikes silently and unseen, like a ninja in the night. Unfortunately, while he absolutely despises his teammates, he can't do anything to them, so he suffers in solitary silence.[1]

Fiction

Armada/Linkage

Maverick is never seen as an individual, only as part of the combined Vorpal Saber sword. Puppet Linkage Part 11

He also forms the hilt to the Vorpal Saber|Dark Saber sword, which can be held by any other Transformer that has 5mm fist-holes. This toy is largely identical to the Hasbro "Air Assault" version of Sonar, but uses transparent plastic with a hint of purple instead of the Hasbro version's opaque off-white.
