- Wildfly is a Decepticon in the Generation 1 continuity family.
Wildfly is one of those robots who would be considered a monster and hunted down whether there was a war on or not. He destroys random office buildings for fun, and tears the wings of passenger jets to pass the time. Like Swoop he actively sows fear in those below him to gain a psychological edge in combat, but unlike the airborne Dinobot, Wildfly is every bit as horrible on the inside as the image he strives to project.
The saddest part is probably that Wildfly likes to think he's an exceptionally clever jokester, and that his ever impulsive destructive outbursts are hilarious jokes that make him "the life of the party". He doesn't realize that his sense of "humor" is so base and so predictable that even among the Decepticons he's usually the only one laughing at the tiresome antics.
He can combine with his fellow Monster Pretenders to form Monstructor.
Fiction
Marvel Comics continuity
Generation 1
In an alternate future where the Decepticons had conquered much of Earth, Wildfly and his fellow Pretender Monsters were led by Galvatron to the remains of New York City in an attempt to root out the last remaining vestiges of Autobot and human resistance. As Galvatron ranted on in the third person about his "historic victory", Wildfly noted that their leader was a few Froot Loops short of a complete balanced breakfast. Galvatron overheard him, however, and threatened to destroy all of them if they dared to challenge his power. Icepick gave Wildfly an angry rebuke for his indiscretion.
Not long later, Wildfly and the others rejoined the Decepticons to defend the Decepticon Powerbase against an Autobot attack.
Devil's Due G.I. Joe vs. Transformers comics continuity
Wildfly was among a group of Decepticons who made a deal with Cobra-La, receiving power-enhancing organic shells in exchange for defending Cobra-La's underground kingdom. They attacked a trio of Autobots aboard the submerged Arc II. When Birdbrain proposed taking on an attacking GI Joe force as Monstructor, Wildfly thought that sounded just fine. Black Horizon, Part 2

Generation 1
- Wildfly (Pretender Monster, 1989)
Wildfly's Pretender shell is a demented, bulging-eyed, hunch-backed, fanged winged ghoul. His inner robot transforms to a winged bird-creature and can function as either of Monstructor's arms. His transformation scheme, though simple, is unique among the Monster Pretenders, the rest of whom share one of two basic schemes. He comes with his shell, shell plate, a gun, and a fist for Monstructor.
