You read the title right, this is where everyone can talk about anything they'd like to regarding Beast Wars! This includes the American Beast Wars and Beast Machines figures, Beast Wars II and Beast Wars Neo figures, along with the Armada and Universe repaints and any other figure that ties into our beloved Beast Franchise.

Now as this is a toy discussion, cartoon talk should be limited, but so long as the cartoon talk ties into your Beast toys, it is permitted!

So without further ado, share some pictures of your Beasts, and lets talk the Wars of the Beasts!

Huh, i come back from a long hiatus and i see a thread to my most favorite line/cartoon. ;)^

its probably a bunch of different reasons why, from the outrageous beast heads as hands, the random body shell pieces as some kind of armor. to the missiles shooting out of random areas, the wacky colors, repaints to die for, a giraffe with a fake hair tail, i could keep going all day

:MAXIMAL:

Oh the cartoon is good too

An excellent idea for a thread and great timing as I'm planning on working on rebuilding my beast wars collection, and this time, I'm going after the Japanese releases (or Japanese releases via the Korean reissues)

All the transmetals are on my list, including the much unloved Optimus Minor, I love that little guy.

I remember that Airazor was one of my more memorable figures when i was young.
I only had G2 Motormouth Nautilator and Seawing back then (Those last 2 were from a yardsale) Unfortunately i lost her claw/gun and it wasn't until several years later that i found out she was a female which was mindblowing sine Beast Wars was never broadcast on Fox Kids in Denmark back then :BOOM:

Air razor was a fun toy, I think she deserved more then getting fused with Tigatron in the shoe but then Tiger Hawk is a fun toy in of itself

The universe repaint of Tiger Hawk is one of my favorites

OK, My obligatory Beast post to start!

Did some rearranging this past weekend after getting a lot of new Beasts from the Collectors store. The Beast guys need 3 shelves now, which I feel pretty good about.

Also, I now have all 4 Predacon commanders!

Also have a bunch of Neo guys incoming, pretty much managed to get the rest of the main cast plus Hardhead and Sharp Edge over the past week, looking forward to them!

Big Convoy and Tigerhawk are my favorite of the crew, they are such fun toys and I enjoy the characters too. Heinrad, Cheetor, and Depthcharge are also up there in terms of favorites

"Oh My.... "

That is an awesome collection!

Just want to ask of curiosity. One of my friends owns a Transmetal Optimus Primal figure which has both clubs and pistol missing and possibly lost the kneecaps for gorilla mode toes and the elbows are loose.
The paintjob has not flaked off.

How much is the figure worth in this condition ?

About $15-$20, also depends on the color of the transmetal

About $15-$20, also depends on the color pf the transmetal.

Its a standard Hasbro/Kenner European figure with original colors no variation, not a Takara figure.

There's 2 different color's that Hasbro/Kenner released. There's the more common blue and less common purple color

I saw one of them the other day in a charity shop minus the accessories, gorilla knees and a fore arm piece, was a steal at £1.50 :lol:

I didn't get it as it would be more costly to get replacement parts versus just buying a more complete figure of ebay.

Yeah, those parts are no joke. :ic$:

On my Optimus Primal, the forearm pegs snapped on one arm, effectively leaving one side permanently open. Other than that I didn't really have anything else fall off or go missing. TM Megatron and Rampage however, both lost a leg. Megs leg fell off the hip pin and Rampage lost a lower leg to a broken knee joint. My favourite of the TM's though is probably Tarantulas. There is just something about him I really adore in both modes. With Waspinator and Depthcharge being a tied, close second.

Loving the collection pics, by the way.

I love the BW line. they were a quantum leap ahead of what had come before. Great articulation, cool gimmicks, just some awesome toys. When I can, I'll get some pics up of mine. Although STngAR and D-Maximal_Primal have already posted some great pics.

My older collection is in storage now, however, pics of my newest stuff is over on the 'whats on your desk' thread. TM 2 Scourge being my newest piece and quite possibly my favourite. I would have loved having so weird and asymmetrical a figure when I was a kid.

Can I use this thread to lodge a complaint that Beast Wars only two combiners were the stuff of transformation nightmare? It was so bad I only managed to combine my Magnaboss as an adult. >:oP

I had no problem with transforming either of them. My complaint was how ridiculously top-heavy Magnaboss was. On an aesthetic and balance level, Tri-Predacus was sublime.

News Credits: 1350 · by **ZeroWolf** » Sat Jun 08, 2019 5:34 pm

Yeah I didn't think the Combiners were that bad, especially after the first time. I'm trying to find tripredacus now, and a replacement silver bolt (darn you GPS)

Actually, there were three Beast Wars combiners, but (import shops aside) the west didn't get Magmatron until Beast Machines.

I have an Ultra-class Optimus Primal that I've been slowly accruing accessories for (also fabricating facsimiles for a couple) and who is missing his left back panel, an Ultra-class Megatron who I'm fabricating a new robot head for (his own was completely gone) and who is missing his squirter (and missiles), and a Dinobot who's missing his left tail half - I have an extra right half I can trade, if anyone's interested. All three are missing their mutant masks.

I'll try and get current pics up ASAP.
