Injector (BW)
- Injector is a Predacon in the Beast Wars portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Injector has a self-esteem problem - he has too much self-esteem. Despite his freakish appearance, Injector is convinced that he's the handsomest thing on six legs. But his vain, foppish demeanor belies his true nature; his charisma, cunning, and sheer malevolence make him a lethal opponent. Like other Air Commanders of the past, Injector's vanity doesn't prevent him from being one of the deadliest air terrors of all.
- Pre-release name: Aquasting
- European market name: Terror Torpedo

After Magmatron was defeated, Injector presumably retreated with the rest of his comrades. The Gathering, Part 4
Weeks later, Injector joined in on the all-out assault ordered by Ravage on Razorbeast's Maximals. When Rartorata showed up, Transquito noted the Angolmois-fueled newcomer's resemblance to Injector, but Injector refused to acknowledge it. The Ascending issue 3
