Fiction
BotCon Comics
In a distant 32nd Century, Cybertron is ruled by the Predacon Warlord Shokaract and only a tiny resistance of Maximals and Predacons remains to fight him.
In order to gain vital inteligence, a Maximal known as The Veteran merged his spark with a dying Predacon- the Cub. Windrazor was the result, powered by a strange dual spark. (Much like the Beast Warrior Tigerhawk.)
Windrazor traveled back in time to the closing act of Optimus Primal's Beast Wars to undo the damage which caused Shokaract to rise to power.
With Shokaract's timeline unraveling, Maximal Apelinq grabbed Windrazor and opened a transwarp portal back to his own time.
Windrazor's fate is unknown, but where two entered Apelinq's time portal, only Apelinq emerged...

Toys
Beast Wars
- Windrazor (Deluxe, 1999)
- Windrazor is a white-with-purple-accents redeco of the Maximal Silverbolt, transforming into an eagle-wolf hybrid creature. His wings have spring-loaded missile launcers, while pulling on his beast-mode tail swings them forward. Though easy to confuse with the much darker Silverbolt at a glance, it is impossible to mistake the two toys side by side.
- He was available exclusively at the Botcon 1999 Transformers Convention.
- Windrazor is the only convention exclusive sold on a card with a sealed plastic bubble. The packaging proved unpopular with collectors as it is impossible to remove the toy without destroying its packaging, and so that style was never used again.
