Beast Wars was my introduction to Transformers. I think the deeper story and character focus was more of a Mainframe thing at the time considering they had also made the series Reboot and Shadow Raiders.

I wish Hasbro would repeat the formula used for Beast Wars. I'm not saying that they should redo Beast Wars (although I certainly wouldn't protest), but they should throw the rulebook out and try something fresh and controversial like they did back then. All the series now are just the same basic setup again and again, and it's getting a little stale. Yeah, Bumblebee's cool and all, but do we need another 57 toys of him to come out this year? Give us something new. Give us something fresh. Give us something weird.

I have to agree with you that a new, reinvented Transformers series would be nice. Hell, we have some TF media NOW that we could just remake for TV, like Beast Wars and MTMTE. Sure, dedicated fans are gonna know the twists and turns, but it would still be nice, admittedly. They'd just need to keep the story, designs, and characters faithful to the originals. But I also wouldn't mind seeing a new reinvention with some not so well known characters.

People should give some slack with the animation. Yes, it's dated, but it doesn't look BAD. You really have to remember the time it was made and the low budget they had to work with. Taking that into account, the show looked amazing.

I wasn't allowed to watch _Beast Wars_ as a kid, so 2008's _Transformers: Animated_ was my introduction to franchise, but I'm so happy I went back and watched all of _Beast Wars._ And you know what, I can actually appreciate a good chunk of _Beast Machines._ Like, okay, seeing my favorites Rhinox and Silverbolt as _very_ different bots (even after their brainwashing was "reversed") was a bit frustrating, but the animation and sound were nice. It's really cool to see the Beast Era characters reimagined into the more "vehicle heavy" franchises. I love _Animated's_ take on Waspinator, and I'm sure I'll love their appearances in IDW once I get around to reading them.

@natek4488

I think Beast Machines does have some good ideas underneath the cracks. Though it was even more of a departure to the norm than even Beast Wars and can be a bit preachy at times and the Maximals designs range from passable to hideous, there are elements that I think can be explored in future series. Techno-organic transformers, exploring the spirituality of transformers, transformers with plant alt-modes, and purely organic transformers.

I think that the main reason that 'Beast Machines' failed was due to the character designs -- none of them look "cool." Even the transformations were just sort of glossed over in the show, and as a result the toys didn't resemble their digital counterparts very closely, adding to the disappointment. Plus, they took the noble, cool-looking flying wolf-knight Silverbolt and turned him into an angry, disgusting samurai bird, so I for one could never love the series as much as Beast Wars, even though it had the more interesting story.

We've got Beast Wars Uprising coming up in a few episodes' time, but a dedicated BW toon episode is now an easier prospect, and if you're hungry for more info about all the different cartoons and comics in this video, they're all bound to receive their own dedicated Basics episodes in the fullness of time!

Awesome video, I loved the Beast Era it was such an cool time in Transformers history. I remember when I saw the first advertisement for the figures on TV, I was so excited because I honestly thought that Transformers came to an end again after not seeing any more G2 figures on the shelves. I will admit, at first I was like "WTH" why are they all animals and what was with the odd names, and even after getting the two pack with the comic, I really loved the figures but still thought the concept was odd. Then came the animated show for Beast Wars and after that I was hooked. And I have said this before but it is one of the best written Transformers show ever, and even though some didn't like it, so was Beast Machines. The other high point of the Era was the figures, they were so "out there" , very abstract and just plain original, it is sad to think we may never see designs like them again.

That's right where I got into transformers. Had a lot of G2 from the intro and a couple of beast wars :-D

Best series, I just remember getting pumped to see what kind of animal those pods would scan when they fell to earth,hype!!

I don't know if maybe you've already done one, but would you consider doing a "The Basics on Fuzors" video? Fuzors were one of the cooler ideas to come out of the Beast Era, in my opinion, and I'd love to have a video breaking down the various (largely toyline exclusive) characters who fell into this hybrid beast. You could even explore their even shorter-lived Beast Machines follow-up faction, the Mutants; former Fuzors who reacted so badly to Megatron's mode-lock virus that they ended up losing their robot mode and instead changing between two separate beast odes.

Dinobot was my all time favorite Predacon/Maximal. He was also the second Transformer that I actually felt something for when he was destroyed.

I was shocked by the sheer hatred TF fans has for Beast Wars. I loved how it created a huge new fan base and the animated series was brilliant. As this video shows the TF ‘Beast era’ it was really, really great. I loved both the toy range and animated series. 1996-2001 was a brilliant era. I loved the era and find them far more better than Robots in Disguise that follows in 2000-2.

The thing about season 1 is, a lot of people don't seem to get on with the "Autobots fighting supervillains" stuff, but I'm talking aboutit as a piece of CRAFT. It's all about precision-enacted escalation, laying down a steady path to the season finale while also building the world and shaping the characters. Beast Wars season 2 has the same thing going on, with the bonus of a strong foundation already laid to build on. When Season 1 of Animated ends, every bit of overplot and subplot have been so perfectly executed that, if you sliced off the stinger with Megatron and Sumdac, you could end the show there and feel content that a complete story had been told, even though they went in knowing they were getting two seasons out of the gate. Compare that to season 3, where NONE of the subplots it spends the whole season setting up are actually resolved at the end, causing the endless frustration we all have to live with now about there not being a season 4!

The BEAST WARS series was the first Transformers series that me and my little brother sat down and watched all the way thru when it aired on tv. I remember when it was advertised on tv before it aired and thought WOW FINALLY a new Transformers series to watch! Because by that point the last cartoon for Transformers on tv was the Generation One cartoon that I can remember and it had been long gone by that point. I did grow up with the Generation One cartoon but by the time I was old enough on what was going on, it was nothing but the same rerun episodes that they played over and over again on tv. So I knew very little on the whole series and characters of Generation One until years later when I bought the series on home video.

Beast wars was what got me into transformers as a kid, still hold it dearly to this day💖

Beast Wars was amazing! Great video and research, thank you 😊

Imagine a Beast Wars series done by Big Finish Productions that fills in the narrative gaps and tie together all four of the show's together in a cohesive matter. Maybe produce Dark Glass with the original cast as a missing tale.

I can't wait to see Transformers WFC: Kingdom and Rise of the Beasts. It'll be interesting to see how different writers handle the G1 cast interacting with Beast Wars characters and how they incorporate the Beast Wars into a continuity.

I like Beast Wars when it first came out. I can take each new thing and like it for its differences and look for the similarities at the same time. I enjoy the idea of Transformers turning into animals as well as much as I like them turning into vehicles. I had no problem with either way.

This was my era of of Transformers, and it had a big impact on views of Transformers as a whole for years to come. For instance since Beast Wars introduced the idea that the Beast Modes protected their robot forms from overexposure so I thought that was the case with EVERY Transformers series until Transformers Energon. I really loved Beast Machines as a kid (though not as much as Beast Wars) but I have to admit it had its problems, most of the characters were REALLY ugly and uncomfortable to look at and even as a kid I noticed a lot of them didn't match their toys. Maybe if they had tried to be less ambitious with their character designs and tried to match the toys more closely the show would have been better recieved.

Ron Perlman? As in In Hellboy and pacific Rim, etc. I hope he can try to give them some voice direction advice so that they can get help with the way that Machinima Show is doing their characters' voice lines. :/

I think the main issue with beast machines is they just looked really gaudy. I understand where they are coming from with nature vs machine, but really they could have just g1 decepticons designs with slight tweaks. While the autobots are essentially animals with a laser gun, because aesthetically Mother Nature is really good at picking designs that work in a process called convergent evolution.

Good work on the basics Beast Wars Era my friend! I was born in the late 90s and my favorite BW toy is Megatron's dragon form. But still I really love it when I was young.

With the new IDW Beast Wars comics being pitched as an “Ultimates” take on Beast Wars (which if anything makes me really, _really_ hyped because that was basically their pitch towards G1 with the old IDW comics) one new twist that I think would be amazing to do to change things up from the original? _Make Waspinator Protoform X_ It would make so much sense, how he seems so unkillable, which was the entire point of the project, a maximal attempt to recreate the immortal properties of Starscream’s spark

And here we are 3 years later! Beast Wars back front and center and paying a role in the current WFC line! Hell yeah. Oh and of course the fresh new IDW comic run! Crazy how time flies

thank you so much for making this

I was just a bit too young to get into the original G1 show. I couldn't get into the animation and designs. So Beast Wars was the first Transformers that I fell in love with and now I've come back around to loving a lot of the G1 designs as well.

The beast era perfectly showcases how once a tyrant ruler turned into a friendly kind hearted dinosaur who sings songs about friendship for children.

It also looks like that Beast Wars could be getting a Reboot on Netflix

Aaron Nicewonger Netflix dropped a trailer recently

I grew up with the G1 Transformers cartoon series, but only that (cartoon and toys only, no comics). During the time that G2 tried to be a thing my family had moved to a new town (with considerably fewer retail options) and I had stopped keeping up on it. Then the CGI cartoon happened, and ... well: Beast 'formers are *best* 'formers. BW's fresh take on the franchise paired very well with my distance from it, and the CGI cartoon was inimitable. Beast Machines at least tried to be worthwhile, but _its_ take on the franchise was (and still is) controversial. I have since not watched any of the later series's cartoons significantly (nor still, read any of the comics), and I have since mostly just occasionally 'checked in' with whatever the current toy line is from time to time.

Now I'm excited for War for Cybertron: Kingdom

i own the 3 timeline figs, depth charge ,Rampage ,and transmutate. and trust me when I say Rampage was the bane of my existence, until I got lucky finding someone on eBay selling for a fair price with transmutate is bonus.

The thing about Beast wars that intrigued me most was the more extensive look into relations between cybertronians. Their ability to love, and chose their allegiance. I know Jetfire/Skyfire is the first to show this in G1 but it was never really touched upon again until Beast wars. It also makes me like Jetfire a lot. Blackarachnia is probably my favorite BW character. And I am curious how their procreation works exactly. I mean they said that they are the descendants of the Autobots and Decepticons. But all we saw in G1 was that either they get created Dinobots and Technobots or inanimated robots given life by vector sigma like the Stunticons and Aerialbots. Which does not exclude one or the other as a side. Having a direct lineage like what happened when Megatron shot Primes face clear off, which would "erase" all maximals because of their direct lineage to Prime. With Blackarachnia who was a pred/maximal protoform also kicking the bucket if he died.It makes me curious if they make life from their own spark? Something like that.

Beast Wars is NOT cannon to the original Transformers show. It uses elements from The Transformers cartoon, Marvel comics and their own ideas to created their own back story for Beast Wars. They are descendents to a G1 lore which doesn't exist in any media we have. Now you know🤓

We seriously need a new Beast Wars.

Or better yet, take the original audio (well at least the original voice actors) from Beast Wars, keep the story intact, and just reanimate it!

Transtech does look pretty cool. Maybe a little gritty, but still cool.

Those transtech designs look AMAZING.

Beast Wars II is still my favorite TF show, and one of my favorite shows ever. Its so funny and cute, and they did such a great job making most of the characters memorable and quirky.

Awesome video and for me Beast Wars was my Transformers. I loved the show, characters, stories, everything. Something that I can understand as an adult is at times you do need to grow with your audience but you grow too quick or not quick enough and that's what I think happened with Beast Machines. Because Beast Wars ran for 3 years pretty my time through later elementary school into middle school but was quickly followed up with Beast Machines and the spiritual nature of the stories was too big of a jump for most fans to get into because it's a kid show. And that's why I think as time went on fans while they still love Beast Wars have an appreciation for Beast Machines now that they are older and can understand many of its higher story elements.

5:28 "The leftfield approach" I get it. Leftfield was the creator of Beast Machines's opening theme song 'Phat Planet"
