![]() This still does not explain why Beasts such as the Armadillo, Anteater and Pangolin for instance have joined sides with the Decepticons so that is a blank that remains. This division of the flying Beasts seems to have continued amongst the Series 2 and 3 Beasts as well both having an equal amount of flying Beasts. Most likely the Bat joined the Decepticons as well in order to have a flying Battle opponent in both factions with Colonel Bird on the Autobot side and Blitzkrieg Bat on the Decepticon side. The Bat is a more clear exception that might need a bit more clarification. ![]() With the Spider having its own order within the animal kingdom it is not very strange to find him amongst the Decepticons as well knowing the Autobots are mainly composed out of endothermic vertebrates. But looking into the storyline of this episode again those exceptions can be explained relatively easy. While this explains the large majority of the division, namely that ALL the reptiles, fish and amphibians from Planet Beast are Decepticons it does not explain everything knowing there are a couple of exceptions. Rebellion on Planet Beast still (at 10.02 min) Here are the stills out of the episode from the actual sentence (English subtitled since Transformers The Headmasters series was fully in Japanese): ![]() At 9.55 min these famous words are spoken by one of the Autobot Transformers arriving on Planet Beast to support the remaining Beasts, who automatically join the Autobot faction, in their Battle against the Beasts who have joined sides with the Decepticons. This very important and crucial line for the origin of the actual division comes from the Transformers The Headmasters Episode 5: Rebellion on Planet Beasts. But where did it originate from and who decided to place one Beast in the Autobot faction while the other ended up on the Decepticon side… ¨I see, so it´s the reptiles, fish and amphibians Since TAKARA launched the Battle Beasts line in Japan as a spin-off from the Transformers line the presence of the two famous Transformer factions amongst the Beasts is not so strange. Firstly shown and explained is the origin of this division.įor the origin of the division of the Battle Beasts into Autobots and Decepticons it is impossible to ignore the connection that this line has with the Transformers. Please scroll down for the actual division of the various series of Beasts over the two factions. So, that's your lot! Here's the full album collected in one image.One of the Inserts that was included in the Japanese single boxes which clearly shows the presence of the two factions.Īs briefly mentioned in the introduction about the Battle Beasts the Japanese Beastformers were divided into the two factions known from the Transformers Cybertron (Autobots) and Destron (Decepticons). Right then, here's the full album for you to enjoy. I opted against including characters like Sunstorm and Acid Storm however, as as the time the cartoon aired they were just nameless background characters, and would feel odd as part of this line-up. Oh, and in case anyone is wondering - yes, this is the full cast of main characters that appeared in the cartoon's first season! Characters like Buzzsaw didn't appear until season 2, and even though the likes of the Dinobots and Constructicons were in the second wave of vintage toys they did appear in the first year of the show. However, it's a good snapshot of where my collection currently stands and the choices I have made so far for each character. ![]() Well, now it's time to share the entire completed series in one place, with a full album of all forty-five characters! The idea really came about as a celebration of seeing every season 1 main character represented in Masterpiece or third party form of some kind, even though in reality that roster is ever-evolving! In fact, with a new Masterpiece Bumblebee having just been properly revealed, not to mention a new Optimus Prime and Hound on the way, it shows you how much this line-up will likely change in the future. If you follow me on social media at all then you may have come across my series of G1 cartoon portraits, which I've been posting daily for the last few weeks.
