I've always preferred the fan name, "Armor Masters". That way you can call attention to the team's main gimmick and pay homage to all the "-Master" sub-types of Transformers that were coming out at the time they were first introduced. It even works because each member had a smaller partner that becomes a part of them, just like Head-, Target- and Powermasters did.

That would work well! And they could make it clear that using the animal partner as a weapon is giving up some of their defenses.
Having not seen Victory, that's actually really neat that they spent that long focusing on the individual members and building the team up. Makes Liokaiser himself much more of a payoff.

It's unfortunate for Deathcobra in IDW because when Liokaiser made the cameo in combined mode, the artist accidentally drew and colored him with Hellbat as the left arm like normal despite him being dead. Which means Deathcobra still has not "officially" been seen as part of the Liokaiser form. Poor guy

Its both. Lore wise Deathsaurus and Leozack were damaged and had to be combined resulting in Dezaras. Which is also the reason why the choose Skylynx (Bird mode =Deathsaurus, Lynx mode= Leozack)
I'm surprised they didn't make a comeback in the War of Cyberetron Trilogy, their original gimmick would have meshed well with the C.O.M.B.A.T. System. Maybe we'll see them in Legacy. It's weird, but I like Big Rescue Force Bot, at least in concept. Instead of turning into a humanoid combiner, he has a realistic mecha vibe, sort of like a MechWarrior.
I was always of the mind that if the Breastforce would get localized with the breast animals they would have been renamed Armor Masters, as the style is similar to HeadMasters and Target Masters.

I couldn't contain my Peter Griffin-esque giggles for this episode.
In Transformers roleplay, me and a friend of mine call these Decepticons something less embarrassing to say, but still close enough to the gimmick to be fitting. I gave them the name Heartmasters and also reinvented them into Decepticon members of the Transformers ninja group, the Six Clan. Members named, Leozak, Fellbat (renamed Hellbat), Jallguar, Ironbison (renamed Killbison), Guyhawk, Drillhorn, Lizak (who turns into Liokaiser's sword) and Cobranite (renamed Deathcobra, who turns into Liokaiser's shield) I also renamed their animal partners, giving one to Lizak and Cobranite as well. Lionbreast as Nemea (after the lion defeated by Hercules) Jaguarbreast as Jaguar (simple I know, but I couldn't think of anything else) Komoribreast as Revenant (spooky sounding) Hawkbreast as Rockbeak (kind of like Laserbeak, sort of) Bisonbreast as Rodeo (I mean why not?) Hornbreast as Dunehorn (close to his master's name, but it figures right?) Tigerbreast as Sphinx (he does have wing-like attachments after all) Eaglebreast as Garuda (after the bird monster from Indian myth) Cobranite's partner I named Coblast (slightly clever, but ya know) Lizak's partner is Sabor (after the leopard from the movie Tarzan)
Well unfortunate name aside, i hope that if Hasbro or Takara do a modern remake of Liokaiser they do it accurately. Both in terms of name and appearance. Also, i hope we get Deathcobra and his partner too.

@@snooze821 I think the Japanese intended it to be "Breastforce". If you look it up in the dictionary, one definition of "breast" is just the chest area of a person or other animal, male or female. The were probably just not thinking at all or completely unaware of the other definition referring to a woman's anatomy, considering all the Breastforce characters are male. "Donkey" comes from donkeys being stubborn. The whole mistyped "Monkey Kong" story is a myth. And Donkey Kong is a gorilla, so "Monkey Kong" would still be referring to the wrong animal.

@@KasumiKenshirou In Japanese media, the English word "breast" means "breastplate" (armor that covers the chest) more often than it refers to the chest itself. That's certainly what it means for the Breastforce. So maybe "Armorforce" would be a better altered name? (Or "Platemasters"? It's always been weird that they're the only "small partner gimmick" from G1 that don't have "master" in their name.)
Correction: "The unfortunate name" is due to the fact that "Chest" does not exist in the japanese language, and is a unisex word to describe both a male and female chest. This is also present in Mazinger Z's signature attack, Breast Fire. In short, "Breastforce" (named after their unique gimmick) in this context doesn't sound sexual at all where in the context of Kiss Players, the word is seen as sexual. Keep in mind that this is happening during the "sanitization era" of US animation during the Satanic Panic, between stuff like Kissyfur and the Little Clowns of Happytown.

Why it’s always important to translate your product name into other languages! 😂 Chevy learned this when the Nova failed to sell in Mexico where it translated into “No Go.” FANTASTIC VIDEO!! I died laughing when you sighed before saying, “Breast Force.”
Here’s how I think they might work, they start out as new recruits, leozack could be the leader trying to rise to the top (although not through treacherous means unlike starscream, who could be his mentor) guyhawk could be a narcissistic jerk who becomes a better person, hellbat (or fellbat) could be a loner who later gets along with his team later on and has a friendly rivalry with death cobra (or ghost cobra) who replaces him later when he is killed battling the armies of unicron, jaguller could be someone with anger issues who often gets into fights, kill bison (or iron bison) could be a muscle of the group, who isn’t vey intelligent, and drill horn could be the team’s mechanical expert. The autobot rescue team could be shattered glass versions of them.
you would have thought somebody at the marketing department would have thought maybe armour force be a more appropriate name
Since Deathcobra never had its own toy, a friend and I made our own custom figure in 2019. It is fully transformable, has breastforce weapon and can combine with Liokaiser as his left arm. We made it as an exclusive for a toy con in Norway, and there now exists only nine figures of Deathcobra in the world. The next year we changed it a bit and made it as an Autobot called Diveblade that combines as a right arm.

Dubious Team name aside, I will call them "Destrons" since they are named that on their US Toy packaging and in the mobile game. Although, given their gimmick involving beast partners, why not rebrand them as the "Beastforce" or "Primal Force" Regardless, these bots are the stand-out stars of the Victory anime, what with their conflicting yet memorable personalities, and the stories that featured them (even if that is by of being Deathsaurus' Goon Squad). Also, I do hope Jallguar makes it in the mobile game if only as a non-combining member of the team.
given that we are getting a six man combiner team from the Dinobots in Legacy Evolution, we could see an new iteration of Liokaiser in the future.

I think Liokaiser would make a great haslab. Especially if they could figure out a way to maintain the fact that the g1 figure didn't need any additional parts to combine beside like the head. Maybe a team of voyagers. Given how well Star Saber did its possible
Additionally: the (sigh) Breastforce also inspired Soundwave's way to deploy Laserbeak in Transformers: Prime.
Ahh, that blue and white rescue force car was possibly the final G1(?) transformers toy I ever received and it always bugged me that I never knew its name... and now I finally know, that it was because it never had one..!
I think Megatron would be extremely pleased having Liokaiser in his army, considering his brute strength, cunning, and unlike the other combiners (with a small exception to Predaking since he's always focused on one thing) he doesn't really have a mental handicap and has the ability to turn invisible. I mean I can picture Liokaiser giving Optimus Prime and the Autobots a hard time as if Devastator wasn't bad enough.
Personally a good name for them could be "adaptacons" because their partner figures can form into a chestplate/ detachable shield for added defence, a gun for long range offense, and an anine for scouting.

The Breast Force was a force to be reckoned for in Victory. Leo Zack wasn't the typical Starscream copy, he was clever, resourceful and an accomplished fighter. Even going against Star Saber without combining. Kaizer were also the reason [spoilers] Victory Leo exists. And Death Saurus was sometimes reluctant of them because of their skill and power.
Classic Saturday vibes. Watching the latest basics episode followed by a new jobby review. Life’s good.
Kinda surprised they didn’t just drop to R and call them Beast Force since they have the animal motif robot modes and names. Heck make them a dark parody of sentai teams like the Ginyu force
Never mind the odd repaint, I’d give someone else’s left arm for a Siege-level line of Victory toys (throw in Dai Atlas, Grandus, and Sky Garry too)…
Great video as always....I bought the Combiner Wars set a few years ago and just thought he looked cool as hell. Really didn't know his backstory but now it makes sense to me. Keep these videos coming bro...expanding my Transformers knowledge is always a plus.
The pauses after saying something related to "breast" is what made this video all the more entertaining besides learning about Liokaiser lol.
I feel like a suitable replacement name would be "Blastforce" since someone on Twitter pointed out that in Japanese, it's pronounced basically the same way.
I wish I had known more about this team for the Liokaiser combiner set. I would have picked it up when it was semi-readily available. Toy shop I usually frequent in StL got in numerous cases of Combiner era toys, but most of them were bought by some guy with Wyoming plates. They were packing him up as I was coming in. I had to joke and point out where I was parked. 😜 I did manage to get a few planes and other Combiners out of that lot, tho. I think I still have several chest pieces from Marshall’s when they were dropping there for $15. Only ever saw one SkyLynx, tho.
I feel like you could easily just change you could just change the name to Armor Force or something like that. The breast animals are on their chest like armor boom there you go its like prime armor
I like how they gave a 10,000 ton robot invisibility like nobody was going to notice his footsteps or something
Ah, yes the Breastforce. 😆 I'm currently planning a fanfic which will feature the Breastmasters but I'm going to call them Thoraxicons (thorax is latin for chest and con is so they fit better with the naming convention of other Decepticon combiner teams). The Breast-Animals will simple be reffered to as minicons and their individual names will be Lionbeast, Komoribeast, Bisonbeast, Jaguarbeast, Hornbeast and Hawkbreast (I feel no need to rename Hawkbreast since breast just has a different connotation when its a bird). I'm also giving Lyzack her own minicon named Lynxbeast cause I feel she deserves it.😊 Despite the silly name, I love the Breastforce. Their dynamic was one of the highlights of Transformers Victory.

Since they're kinda based off of the idea of knights wearing their crests on their breast plates, I've thought of a few new team names. "Crest Force", "CrestCons", or "CrestFormers" would be better names to me. They should have their "Crest Creatures" back, that double as their weapons & breastplates. And their new combined name should be "Crest King", "Kaiser Crest", or "Lio Crest".
Thank you so much for covering my favorite combiner
Just only one thing- how come Nosecone and Drillhorn both are same body styles, form, and shape, transform into alt modes differently, most notably their turret heads?
About time,Deathsaurus' goon squad gets some love...even if some them are sadistic AF. But, slight Deviation, Hasbro authorized Liokaiser to be a 5-bot combiner to keep things even with Computron in Earth Wars....have to wonder if the 6th bot will come back as a gun for Liokaiser? Side note: Here's hoping the Trainbots get a little love. I mean sure they have Masterpiece figures, but nothing for others. Also, for those unfamiliar, these bots, currently called "Destrons" are actually called the"Brestforce" (Deliberately misspelled based on the Anime) Two of the members, "Hellbat" and "Killbison" were renamed to "Fellbat" and "Ironbison Also, said Kill//ronbison is pretty fond of "flipping off" his adversaries
I never understood why Hasbro didn't import them and sell them as "Battlemasters" (We already had Head, Power, Target, Brain, God, & Micro). Battlemasters makes sense when it comes to the chest components: +Attack when a Weapon, +Defense when a Plate & Balanced when an animal.

With Hasbro/Takara set to finish of Legacy Menasor within the next few months, there are plenty of Combiners for them to tackle now, who knows, maybe liokaiser will get a little love.
This is so unfortunate that these characters haven't been reuse more often just for a silly name of their team which even the dub version already have a good alternative name.

The Japanese don't have any issues with the name. It's more that they've simply been passed over like most of the characters from that era: you don't see any new mainline toys of the three smaller Brainmasters, Multiforce, Victory Leo, Deathsaurus or Galaxy Shuttle either. Star Sabre is the poster boy of Victory. Everyone else is out in the cold.
Ribforce might be a good name. It's still named after the same general area while being a bit morbid, which is fitting for an evil team.
So cool, I still need to get the Victory DVD collection to truly enjoy these characters!
Getting a legacy breastforce pack would honestly be so funny and cool I would get it in a heart beat. He a character that I would love to see released either in the Mainline or part of Haslab with incredible articulation and other goodies

I’m seeing a lot of people commenting the seemingly loved fan name of “Armor Masters,” so I figure I’d take a crack at an alternate name. I saw the team deployed their companions as ranged laser weapons as well, and they still had the broad shaping as per the design of the toys in chest plate or animal form. I could see them redesigned so that the companions bots could be used in chest plate mode as a handheld shield, say, to accompany an energy saber. Ergo, how about “Shieldmasters?”
Given the success of the Victory Saber Haslab, I've been hoping Liokaiser would be the next one up. Probably wishful thinking, I know.

The Japanese language has always preferred to use the word “breast” when using an English word for chest, and it’s never in reference to female anatomy. They did that because “chest” is very similar in pronunciation to an actual Japanese word, and that would be too confusing for the audience. But people can’t help but immediately associate it with boobs when it comes over here, despite the fact that terms like breastplate are still in our vocabulary. It’s not some crazy terrible word. They didn’t go around calling themselves the “boob patrol.”

As an ESL tutor to Japanese people, this is why I tell my students to NEVER use Japanese English in actual English, to assume that almost all of these terms are incorrect, since, as shown with "breast" instead of "chest", either pronunciation or use are indeed incorrect. There are a few exceptions, like "anime" and "salaryman", but that's coz those terms are a culture unto their own. Though, I don't tell them to not use such in their own language, coz it's fine and ultimately harmless, with the sole exception of "mania", meaning what we would call "geek".

You can defend penchant of the Japanese to use cool-sounding (in their opinion) English words semi-randomly in their media, but no matter how you slice it, "Breastforce" is a silly name. Even if you skip the mammaries connotation, the next most popular one refers to meat cut from poultry. If Hasbro has any serious plans to incorporate Japanese media to Transformers in the west, they need to hire someone talented to rewrite 80% of names so they don't stick out like a sore thumb. The recently announced Velocitron "Galaxy Shuttle" is one of those cases in dire need of a new name.

If they ever merge the characters with modern transformers media, the "Chestforce" for lack of a solid name at this point, could come from the same colony planet as all those Animal themed Decepticons that still turned into Vehicles from RiD, the ones who were held on the prison ship Alcamor. That is one way they could explain the oddness of those Animal Decepticons from that series and leave the door open for such a concept if any future TF writers wanted to use it and bring back any of the RiD Alcamor Prisoners as-is rather than having to re-design them to fit. Steeljaw and Thunderhoof are probably enjoyed exactly as they are, so fans of the characters would probably dislike their designs being changed. I know I got off topic there but the out-of-placeness of the RiD Animal Decepticons always bugged me, so I always wanted to give them a proper explanation on why they are like that, and the Breast Force really fit the bill, given that they are Animal themed Decepticons who still oddly turn into vehicles.
Nice video about characters I've never heard before. But I kind of wish the next video would be about an Autobot again.
LioKsiser is hands down one of my favorite Combiners. I'd love to see more encounters with them and other combiners like Superion, Bruticus etc. Also, Im one of the few that actually liked the CW toy, but if Hasbro/TT actually developed alternate deluxe versions of Leozack and Jagullar to form the body, and the limbs would still work, I'd definitely get them.
Timelines Seprpent O.R. (based on the GI Joe character) could do a good stand-in for Deathcobra, especially the IDW version.
Can't wait for the rest: Computron etc
I thought the next combiner was going to Menasor because breakdown was announced recently however, I really liked this episode
The westernized "Chestforce" name is fine, but there were other various names such as the "Rack Pack" or maybe "Bosom Buddies" for example!!! Did you noticed that the seventh member and Hellbat's replacement Deathcobra resembles Serpentor, which he was Cobra Commander's replacement as well as the new leader of Cobra!!!
Great Stuff, as always!
I wonder if there will be another update to Liokaiser?
Love Chris’ unfortunate sigh as he had to say the word “Breastforce,” as if he’s like “Ugh, people are gonna make jokes in the comments non-stop about this…”
I think a good alternative name for the group could be "The Six Pack" in reference to their number, animal partners, and chest motif
I really do hope that there will be either Legacy line or MPG release of Lio Kaiser soon...
