Wildrider is the name of three fictional characters from the Transformers franchise.
A Decepticon with ADHD would best describe Wildrider's personality. Wherever the Stunticons are, you'll find Wildrider boucing off the walls... literally. Wildrider delights in the carnage he causes on the roads, but his hyperactive driving frequently puts him out of commission with tire failures. Deep down, the thing he fears more than anything is peace and quiet. He combines with fellow Stunticons to form Menasor.
Wildrider first appeared with the rest of the Stunticons in the two-part episode "The Key To Vector Sigma". Like the other Stunticons, he was created after Megatron commissioned Rumble to find him some vehicles to be turned into Decepticon warriors, in order to more effectively battle the Autobots on the roads. Megatron modified the cars so they could transform into remote-controlled robots, and then took them to Vector Sigma so they could be given personalities of their own.
In the second season, Wildrider's voice was loud and boisterous, however by the third season he spoke more like a Texan. Wildrider, like most of the Stunticons were built as 200-mph cannonballs. Their strong hulls allowed them to smash through barricades, trees and rock. Wildrider used this ability to his advantage many times, including ramming himself into a rock face to knock Bluestreak off his back.
In the episode "Masquerade", Wildrider and Breakdown are sent by Megatron to steal laser lenses for his new weapons. While en route to the crater where Megatron was waiting, the Autobots intercept them and take them into custody. In order to discover Megatron's plan, the Autobots disguise themselves as the Stunticons. Windcharger, the fastest of the 1984-85 Autobots, is selected to be Wildrider.
