| The name or term "Wind Sheer" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Wind Sheer (disambiguation). |
- Wind Sheer is a Mini-Con from the Armada portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.
Wind Sheer is the Mini-Con partner to Wheeljack, through thick and thin. Like Wheeljack, Wind Sheer used to be sided with the Autobots, but after their seeming betrayal by their teammates, Wind Sheer followed his partner over to the Decepticon side. He's not as sure about the decision to change sides as Wheeljack is, but won't abandon his friend, no matter what. And in return, Wheeljack fights hard to make sure none of his new allies try to take advantage of Wind Sheer.
- Japanese name: Hawk
Fiction
Dreamwave Aramda comics
Wind Sheer was among the Earth-based Mini-Cons gathered at the Black Mesa in Arizona, just before the Transformers left Earth to return to Cybertron and fight off Unicron. Presumably, he was at the Loop in Cyber City, and gave his power to the Mini-Con Matrix, which dealt the critical blow to Unicron.
Fun Publications Cybertron comic
Wind Sheer is seen among the Mini-Con rebels led by the Sky Terror Mini-Con Team, using powerful energon weapons to strike at bases held by the Mini-Con Council of Sages. He was present at the battle where Unicron made his presense known in a big way, though it is not known how he fared in it.
