Beast Wars: Transmetal Tarantulas

[A77Everything]

spiders!!!! looks like someone watches the Nostalgia Critic

[FoxsDumbSeriesMaker]

Tarantulas is awesome! They should put him in Transformers Prime or something.

[HydraLing1]

Anyone know where you can find this guy?

[3ssay]

Also, how is a spider motorcycle not awesome?

[3ssay]

How dare you sir, the whole series must be watched. Yea, there are a few in the first season you can skip, but there are so many episodes that really develop characters, build up the word, and stir up a sense of depth and mystery you might as well watch them all. No, it's not as good as season 2, but it really sets a great tone for the rest of the series.

[gundam0010001]

sorry...but you put the shoulder pads wrong...the clip on the wheel bits, then sort of long one at the back, thats teh bit that clips into the arm

[MrHarryscreations]

if waspinator and blackarachnia were in transformers animated and beast wars was in 4000[3000] do you think they were the first beasts that could transform?

[MrVash104]

@MrHarryscreations but remember they went back in time

[JNBakuBrawler]

@Gar8mar8a What do you think?

[ChaoticTeen16]

Dinobot threatens to kill him if he didnt take Dinobot to the protohuman valley in the episode 'Code of Hero'. Tarantulas then sneak attacks him when they get there.

[bigdaddycreamsicle]

@Gar8mar8a Tarantulas is a Predacon.

[vecterprimus22]

they should make a Decepticon version of Tarantulas,like they did with Blackarachina or Waspinator

[JNBakuBrawler]

@vecterprimus22 They are already Predacons..... (Decepticon descendants as beasts')

[vecterprimus22]

@JNBakuBrawler ik i have seen and own the entire series of the beast wars.i was saying like an update like they did with Blackarachina and waspinator in Transformers animated.

[Sgtscorpious]

anyone know where i can find him along with others for a reasonable price nowadays?

[UnholyJesus181]

If you're still having trouble with the wheels, you can use a pair of the spider legs on his back to hold the shoulderpads in place.

[DetectiveBarricade]

This has probably been stated at least a dozen times, but the trick to getting the wheel halves to stay in place is to swing the arms forward fully. The assembly they're on connects via a double hinge, and said hinge doesn't move as easily in the back than it does in the front.

[ggggfan1]

can't you collapse wheels down?

[TFfan7]

he's like the soundwave of beast wars.

[Quantumfroce7]

i could have sworn that Tranatulas was a girl. maybe it was that in the american version.

[TFfan7]

@Quantumfroce7 that's blackarachnia

[ShinAkumaru]

Please tell me you have TigerHawk

[jowerewolf]

There is some peg to lock the wheel on place on his arm.

I dont know if you have the figure but you should to a TM waspinator review. Its one of the few TM that i think have a good vehicule mode. I also like ratrape vehicule mode.

[longknight]

Check out Peauh's veview of Tarantulas. It may solve your wheel shoulder pad problem.

[Jpmsell]

The shoulder pads can be locked, the tab that has the shoulder joint has a tiny clip that locks into place against the wheel when the wheel is slightly rotated back.

Fact ;)

[RodimusMinor1987]

It was Dinobot in Code of Heroes he rides him in that Episode. Ratrap was my favourite TM figure but I do love Tarantulas he is somewere in my Atic

[deathguy007]

dinobot rides him.. :)

[OggSquirrelHunter]

i lost mine



[NewKira16]

I had this guy as a kid. Was a damn good figure too. Thanks for reviewing it, Spada! ^^

[The45Quests]

I still have this guy, Tarantulas is one of my favorite characters from the series. This was/is still one of my favorite figures.

[MouMouShit]

you have to pull the arms all the way out

then you can see there is a === on the arm part and a ---- on the wheel part

and you can put them together

[Ballpython77]

i love this figure and character , but the best of all is i have 2 of him, complete and in 100% perfect condition and only paid $1 each.

[carnut015]

This guy looks like he is about to whoop some ass! The colors work well and he looks great.

[XelhosTallyn]

There's a groove in the shoulder that locks into the tab on the wheel halves. Also, there's a little double hinge in the shoulder that brings the arm out and forward to lock in better. One of my favorites too!

[Darkscorponok]

@XelhosTallyn i was just about to remark on that too because i remember always doing that as well

[gundamboy195]

dinobot rode him.

[JTAZN]

Don't forget, Megatron had roller blades :D

[Predaking4ever]

The shoulder pads on mine would always stay in place.

[MasterGravitron]

I love how the spider legs make him look like and Indian god in robot mode. One of the most gorgeous beast wars toy ever

[MrVash104]

dude his soo BAMF !!!1 i soo want lol

[gigator39]

I never had a Taratulas figure but I love the character. He's one of the few BW characters that I wish they'd do a new version of for Generations

[uSCOTTpwnd]

To be honest, my favorite transmetal is Rattrap, just cuz i love the character, and how honestly that his transmetal form is a simple update to his original form. Plus he has the most effective transmetal vehicle mode as a go cart drag racer type deal.

[duweyjoe]

i agree that Tarantulas was definitely one of the strongest characters ever in Transformers

[SubjectXer0]

This is one of my favorite Beast Wars figures too. Tarantulas is one of my favorite characters cause he was always doing his own thing no matter what anyone else said, he also has an awesome voice.

[mikesstupidcomics]

My shoulderpads have a tab you can stick them in to make them stay. Plug the arms right into the shoulder pads.

[taxork511]

oh yes. a bug and a motorcycle. were have we seen that before, waspinator?

[TheoryFan1051]

legs are multiple kick stands lol ..... it was Dinobot who rode him.

[rico24545]

Dinobot rode him in sesson btw dinobot made into the transformers hall of fame

[ArthasvsLeon]

Spideeeeeeeerrrsss!!!

[NickonAquaMagna]

I always thought he was badass with this look, too. The shoulders really add a bit of bulk to him, I love how the spider legs hanging off his back look kinda like wings, and his body proportions in general make him look surprisingly lithe and more competent than his first body.

[devilNaruto03]

Great Review!
