3:12 fun fact; unlike beast wars which was syndicated, beast machines aired exclusively on fox networks, this came with a lot more cencorship guidlines the show had to follow, this is probably why no characters have external blaster and theyre al built into their arms
Fun fact! In beast wars 2, they didn’t use the biomechanic design style. The lore reason was because the maximal council just… turned the planet back to its original design. EDIT: yooo guys, thanks for the likes.
I know about that and it really annoys me. I know Japan was already making Beast Wars sequels before they probably knew about the ending of Beast Machines but it still feels inconsistent. I didn't even know if there was an explanation for it. You say the maximal council just changed it back? Do you know what the motive was as to why the council would? Was there some sort of issue with the organic parts being mixed or something thing?
@@Minipsil3 I don't remember this fact being mentioned at all in beast wars 2, but there might have been a mention in beast wars neo, but I don't remember. Maybe it was mentioned in the manga for the first or second series?
@ipattikuoloratti8643 that wasn't added in until after the fact and they now had to fit together all 4 Beast series together, how it goes is that Vecter Sigma did it because it sense Unicron's impending return and changed the planet back to help the residents be ready for him.
@@theonewhowatches869 Okay thank you. I was curious what the explanation was. I knew it would have been made after the show because they just didn't know about the ending of Beast Machines yet. I suppose the explanation is decent enough for something that is just trying to fix continuity errors although isn't anything great.
Given that whatever was meant to come after Beast Machines had the main cast with actual vehicle modes I wish they just scrapped Beast Machines and skipped straight to that and implemented the "Megatron escaped, we need to find him and stop him again" shit on a more normal Cybertron with the characters having their original alt modes back.
This guy is actually sick looking, happy to see BM at least getting a little love. Cheetor was one of the more tolerate designs too me despite having grasshopper legs.
I have to agree with you on this one, I do not need the Maximals from this show made, but I could live with getting some Deluxe or Voyager Vehicons, especially Strika and Obsidian. Those designs were far better than everyone else in the show.
What I would give for a proper voyager BM Cheetor. Beast Machines' character designs are beautifully detailed and alien, and deserve modern toys that do them justice.
@@PerspectiveEnd Eh, they seem as natural a next step as the Beastformers were from classic G1 designs. You've gotta keep in mind the entire transformers species was wiped out by a plague. To survive, the transformers had to essentially be reborn as a new form of life. Primal became the first of a new species. That's just really epic scifi and as much as I would've liked to see Transtech unify the aesthetic a bit, we never got that far.
Well not so much a plague but a Bio Weapon, and I mean how that works with robots is anyones guess, but anyways I just don't think it's important that the cure makes them look alien. There are a million ways you could say it worked without making them haunt my dreams.
I thought we were done roasting Beast Machines... 5:25 - In the words of Bobby Skullface: "What... The F$&# Is That?!?!?" *Pokes it with a ruler* "...I don't trust it..."
I would have liked if the tripredacous coucil were the villains of beast machines, and megatron was working in the shadows to help to maximals so he could use them to bring the concil down and he could rule cybertron
*Does walk of shame for actually liking the Beast Machines theme of "reconciling inorganic technology with the organic instead of being in constant conflict."* 😞
yeah I feel like when they were developing this figure they decided on "lets take the Beast Machines Happy Meal toy and give it some kibble and slightly more articulation." But kinda ballsy that they would choose one of the Maximals when it would have been safer to do one of the vehicons generals
Y'know, the argument could be made that Energon and Beast Machines are only getting core class toys because Hasbro recognizes the bad reps of these cartoons, thus not wanting to allocate any more budget to the characters than they have to. But you could also argue (for the Beasties at least) that they're made in core class to be scale accurate since the Maximals were significantly smaller than the G1 Autobots.
see I wouldn't mind I a full size update of energon megatron, heck I reckon you could retool it into g1 thunderwing as well, but energon optimus would be a hard sell as its such a poor rushed design after the winner that was armada and the greatness that was cybertron. His only decent super modes are with wing saber the rest are quite lazy
Wait, Energon has a bad rep? I mean, I get Beast Machines having an extremely awful reputation. But Energon of all things having a bad rep? I'm actually curious how that is.
@@ZackarySchejbalCODBO2RGM2 I've heard from various people about why they don't like Transformers Energon, some say the bad animation and others say it's got bad designs. Among other things.
Everything changed when the Beast Machines attacked. Only the Perspective End, master of all four review styles could stop them, but when the world needed him most... He was playing Helldivers 2.
5:59 the only good parts in my opinion are Cheetor’s character growth where he matures and became the leader of the Maximals, then Blackarachnia bringing Silverbolt back to the light and finally Megatron, he’s a villain that has been going extinct these days. Being a remorseless villain with irredeemable qualities, only Transformers can create a psychopathic dragon
I can agree I really miss when badguys could be bad. Though I think making Cheetor the leader is a Mistake, because there were so many more Qualified people to take that Mantle, like Rattrap, Blackarachnia, or Silverbolt.
With a bit of work BM could be a pretty good show. A crazy Megatron who's taken over all of Cybertron and keeps everyones spark locked away? Fantastic idea!
I cut the tabs off and it did wonders for the figure. Only downside now, besides being Beast Machines, is the hollow head is unable to look up for a gliding pose
I managed to get studio series grindor for R1000 ($54) when the original cosy was R1800 ($95) This has nothing to do with the video im just happy about this for some reason
As I have told you I ordered the universe Hound after watching your video!! I love it!! Everything from the ravage to the packaging to even how it doesn’t look like it transformers in vehicle mode!!
I'm happy to see some corners of the franchise finally get more attention. Can't say I'm ecstatic to collect all the beast machines characters, but I like seeing it nonetheless. Heres hoping for more superlink/energon figures. Also, if they could do a Reflector from the new comic who transforms into a complete camera by himself, I'd be super down for that
It's nice to get some winder franchise representation, but I don't see this selling none the less. It's Beast Machines after all. But I'd be down for more Energon figures.
BM somehow got scale accurate characters before the good Beast Era show. Also, I got Silverbolt from the same wave, and he is fantastic. The voyagers from that wave are damn near perfect and I didn't even buy Cybertron Starscream (nor any other Non-BW characters in Legacy due to my restrictions). In addition, we need a collaborative retool of this guy into an actual Xenomorph since Cheetormorph here is 90% of the way there.
Ah, so it pulls a Legacy Silverbolt by adding tabs to the limbs to make the beast mode worse. At least Silverbolt is a fantastic figure. Unlike this...thing.
This being a core class is probably the safest bet for beast machine maximals cause it’s the beast machine maximal designs. The only beast machine designs that might work at a larger size class is the vehicons cause those are more pleasing designs to look at over the abominations the maximals are.
I did enjoy Beast Machines, but at the same time you're not wrong. We need a Beast Machines Kai that's the story parts with all the repetitive chase scenes and Maximals arguing with each other cut out.

Megatron.
Saw this at my local target with the Tigerhawk, TFA BB and Lego Optimus. But IDC not just because it's Beast machines but because it's a core class, the only time I'd have a core class is if my mother would get it for me
I think I know who this person is that you mentioned. Bumped into her via an old video of Runestone Reviews video of BM Silverbolt and she basically said he was blocked off her channel for his negative review on said toy for calling him something-turkey related. Even made a bullying Silverbolt PSA video about it. In whose mentally challenged mind does it count as bullying a fictional character if the toy is shit? The only redeeming thing I have found with the figure is that he has a griffin mode, which is theorized to be an early beast mode for Silverbolt until it was chosen for a condor. It helps the figure a little, but not a lot. I even tried to talk some common sense in that he and other reviewers such as TJOmega who also have reviwed the toy with their negative opinions of the figure but no, she said that they are "WRONG!' and are bullies to the character? What? Then she rambled something about me and others hating BW and BM, whuch I didn't even bring up since I like both shows. And according to her opinions are like weapons of war. Take your meds, ma'am. Anyways about the toy, happy to see BM getting some recognition since Tankor in T30 (not counting the Savage recolor of the little TR Fangry figure we got in 2016-2017). And that's a solid 10 years ago.
Great video PerspectiveEnd!! I hope that this will be the last of Beast Machines for a while, since as you said that face of Cheetor's. O_O lol Keep on being amazing.
I actually came up with something cool that they could do for the Vehicons. I was thinking that, with how good the Junkions and Rock Lords are doing, why not make the Vehicons the new Weaponizers? They could transform as normal, but have detachable limbs so you can customize them or display them getting blown to bits or something. That’d probably be a good incentive to army-build them as well. I would at least get one of each, cause they were the best designs of that crappy show.
2:11 Well, I wouldn’t call Cheetor a mistake specifically, even though he did fail at protecting the All-Spark… Oh, you meant that one… Yeah, he was a mistake.
In short, it's basic, but besides the stupid articulation limiting pegs, it's good enought as an modern BM Cheetor. Heck, If I ever get one , I may try repaint him in to one of his variant's, or in to Beast Pretender Catilla. Either way, I'm interested in getting him when avaible. As for the question of the video... If you had to pick what new Legacy BM figure would be next, who would you pick and why ?
Obsidian. I pick him, because the options are him Jetstorm, or Strika for me, Strika I'd want to be the IDW version, and Jetstrom I figure may get a figure on his own eventually, as he's the most popular of the Vehicon Generals. Obsidian, is awesome, and his incarnation in the show looks good already, so he doesn't need a revamp like Strika.
Easy Xenomorph retool/custom. The hole in the back of the head is perfect for it. Maybe I should buy a couple just to make a custom army of them. Maybe the purchase would tell Hasbro to make the cool Vehicons.
Why do you wish the arms tabbed in better, they have an IRON Grip already. And yes I know I could spin the head, but I think it's even more conspicuous like that.

Just give me a TM2 Megatron BM retool. A patchy, partially skinned dragon is METAL AF!
I assume you want it to come with it's sick Gamer Chair?
@@PerspectiveEnd Perhaps? LOL
A Beast Machines Megatron would be cool but new stuff has to be done and the size class he would fit in.
Saw this at my local target with the Tigerhawk, TFA BB and Lego Optimus. But IDC not just because it's Beast machines but because it's a core class, the only time I'd have a core class is if my mother would get it for me
I think I know who this person is that you mentioned. Bumped into her via an old video of Runestone Reviews video of BM Silverbolt and she basically said he was blocked off her channel for his negative review on said toy for calling him something-turkey related. Even made a bullying Silverbolt PSA video about it. In whose mentally challenged mind does it count as bullying a fictional character if the toy is shit? The only redeeming thing I have found with the figure is that he has a griffin mode, which is theorized to be an early beast mode for Silverbolt until it was chosen for a condor. It helps the figure a little, but not a lot. I even tried to talk some common sense in that he and other reviewers such as TJOmega who also have reviwed the toy with their negative opinions of the figure but no, she said that they are "WRONG!' and are bullies to the character? What? Then she rambled something about me and others hating BW and BM, whuch I didn't even bring up since I like both shows. And according to her opinions are like weapons of war. Take your meds, ma'am.
Anyways about the toy, happy to see BM getting some recognition since Tankor in T30 (not counting the Savage recolor of the little TR Fangry figure we got in 2016-2017). And that's a solid 10 years ago.
If you think you know who it is, then you probably know who it is yeah. And that sounds like her MO.
We need a Jetstorm way more than a Tankor.
I'm happy that this is a thing, because if we're lucky that means we're getting the badass Vehicons in CHUG. I'd love a new Beast Machines Jetstorm.
I would be thrilled to get a Jetstorm and Obsidian, though I'd want Strika to be the IDW version.
I found myself really liking this figure, definitely gonna be a deskbot in the near future
great video
Thank you so much!
Great video PerspectiveEnd!! I hope that this will be the last of Beast Machines for a while, since as you said that face of Cheetor's. O_O lol Keep on being amazing.
He’s staring into my soul.
He's staring into the souls of everyone on earth at once. When you feel a random shiver... That's Cheetor.
Definitely gonna make a Xenomorph custom with this figure
Good luck. Let me know if it works out.
He did connect his swords once or twice.....to glide.
I semi remember that.
I actually came up with something cool that they could do for the Vehicons. I was thinking that, with how good the Junkions and Rock Lords are doing, why not make the Vehicons the new Weaponizers? They could transform as normal, but have detachable limbs so you can customize them or display them getting blown to bits or something.
That’d probably be a good incentive to army-build them as well. I would at least get one of each, cause they were the best designs of that crappy show.
As long as Jetstorm got his own non Weaponizing figure, I'd be pretty cool with that. Would make sense too cause they were built with Spare parts.
@@PerspectiveEnd yeah we need a new Jetstorm regardless, seeing as he was one of the saving graces of BM.
2:11 Well, I wouldn’t call Cheetor a mistake specifically, even though he did fail at protecting the All-Spark… Oh, you meant that one… Yeah, he was a mistake.
It took me a minute to realize you were talking about the Cyberverse one.
@@PerspectiveEnd What other significant Cheetors do you know? (Emphasis on significant)
I really like beast machines, always have
That's fine. Don't let me convince you to stop liking it.
@@PerspectiveEnd hot take, but i think its vastly better then the whole cybertron trilogy
How quiet can you get when Asking for likes before it sounds muted?
At least he’s competent in the show
In short, it's basic, but besides the stupid articulation limiting pegs, it's good enought as an modern BM Cheetor. Heck, If I ever get one , I may try repaint him in to one of his variant's, or in to Beast Pretender Catilla. Either way, I'm interested in getting him when avaible.
As for the question of the video...
If you had to pick what new Legacy BM figure would be next, who would you pick and why ?
Obsidian. I pick him, because the options are him Jetstorm, or Strika for me, Strika I'd want to be the IDW version, and Jetstrom I figure may get a figure on his own eventually, as he's the most popular of the Vehicon Generals.
Obsidian, is awesome, and his incarnation in the show looks good already, so he doesn't need a revamp like Strika.
Easy Xenomorph retool/custom. The hole in the back of the head is perfect for it. Maybe I should buy a couple just to make a custom army of them. Maybe the purchase would tell Hasbro to make the cool Vehicons.
Found mine at target, and I really like it. Wish the arms tabbed in to the chest better, and the claws on the back of the arms fly around too much
And you can rotate the head around to hide the high face but that gives his alt mode have a yellow goat tee
Why do you wish the arms tabbed in better, they have an IRON Grip already.
And yes I know I could spin the head, but I think it's even more conspicuous like that.
@@PerspectiveEnd I don’t want those things to tab in. When I already pop the elbow off every two seconds I try to lol.
2:56 personally to make myself feel better after seeing the face, i pretend that the purple lines under the “eyes” are the real eyes, and the “eyes” are eyebrows or smth idfk
That's kind of cute honestly. Kind of perpetually squinting.
Lol
Hmmmmm… why am i in this shitty show?- beast machines cheetor
Also bro the algorithm REALLY likes ur vids i watched one or two and oop my entire feed is FIRST: YOUR LIKES
Beast Machines needs a remake that doesn't suck, or Beast Wars needs an actual sequel.
Let’s continue supporting all the transformers content creators
I now want to give my version of cheetor a bow
