- Saberback is a Predacon from the Beast Wars Neo portion of the Generation 1 continuity family's Beast Era.
Saberback (セイバーバック Seibābakku) is a mysterious warrior. His origins are shadowy at the very best. All anyone does know is that he is a warrior not to be taken lightly. He is an expert in black magic and can create deadly illusions and spells, along with divining from tarot cards. He is evil to the core and his wizardry reflects it. Saberback prefers to remain hidden during battle and perform his trickery from a safe place. This makes him difficult to locate by the enemy.
One of his favorite hobbies outside of sorcery is the constant berating of the Predacon Sling.

Toys
Beast Wars Neo
- Saberback (Deluxe, 1999)
- Japanese ID number: D-30
- Accessories: Tail-weapon
- Saberback transforms into an organic stegosaurus. He also has a dubious (well...okay, lame) third "Claw Trap Mode" that basically involves splaying out the dino-limbs so he's on his belly, then raising up the dino-spine and tail so the opening panels on the tail-claw face forward. His tail detaches to become a hand-held (non-firing) blaster/claw-weapon for robot mode. Saberback's robot mode has a rather Aztec feel to it, what with the headdress, loincloth, and skull chest decoration.
- This mold was also used to make the Beast Machines Dinobot Striker and the Walmart-exclusive Dinobots Snarl.
- Showdown in the Desert: Corrada VS Saberback (Deluxe VS set, 1999)
- Japanese ID number: VS-30
- Accessories: Tail-weapon
- Saberback was also available in a two-pack with the Maximal Cohrada. The two toys were identical to their individual releases.
Notes
Foreign names
- Korean: Stegorat (스테고라트 Seutegorateu)
