  • Beast Machines had some good attributes, mainly the ideological concepts and such (along with Jetstorm and Thrust, those guys are awesome).

    But still, Beast Wars was better than this. They made the characters look stupid/ugly/weird, and...

    Optimus turned into a pacifistic idiot (not because of his views, if you pay attention closely, he does some pretty stupid things). Cheetor turned into a wimp (watch the Fallout episode), Silverbolt grew stale, and Megatron became a germophobe.

  • Graphics here are better than those of Beast Wars.

  • (y)

  • Beast Machines was the worst. Beast Wars AND the original Transformers was the best.

  • A lot of people hated Beast Machines and I can understand why. Still though, it wasn't awful. I thought the the plot and the dark settings were really well done. If it was a show with a new set of characters, then it'd be pretty good. The only problem is that it continues the Beast Wars story and takes a complete 180 degree turn. They changed the characters' personas, which is understandable, but they changed them just to fit the plot. Rattrap is an example. They made him weak when he was not.

  • Interesting series; very dark and different. Not the best but I found it a captivating watch. The opening is awesome though!

  • Loved this show.

  • hated this series but as a transformers fanatic,i seen every season and episode. imagine my disbelief as i found out that optimus had became a hippie. i cried when they took the series in this direction. absolute shit. 4 out 10

  • 15 sonic satAM fan's would rather have that crappy theme song from their cartoon over this epic theme music

  • is there a full length version of this song?

  • @paulthegreat103 The song is called Phat Planet by Leftfield. Tidy little track

  • Ahhh thank goodness for you Beast Wars/Machine fans. Nothing like those grouchy Animated fans and G1rs' to make you feel like it's all one big feud... People here actually weigh both shows before making judgments and don't scream at each other. ..

  • maybe someone has said this before, but the track sounds like smack my bitch up by the prodigy.

  • is it just me or does this show seem to be meant for a 16:9 aspect ratio? Even as a kid, I thought the opening scene - especially from the Cybertron planet - the planet seems like a squeezed circle.

  • Beast Wars was better imo. This show was kinda forced as in it didn't need to take place at all.

  • i luved this show soo much

  • You know,I always saw Beast Wars as more character-driven,while Beast Machines was more story-driven.It doesn't mean one is better than the other;it just is what you prefer.

  • this series didn't really hold a candle to beast wars, but it still had that 90s flavor to it as the series was composed to be enjoyed by young and old as well when saturday mournings were the shit

  • I need tohe soundtrack to this series nao :(

  • @unpwnntent  Leftfield - Phat Planet

  • I like Beast Wars,and own all three seasons on DVD,but I thought Beast Machines was awesome. I own it on DVD as well and find myself rewatching it a lot. It was a more complex series,and while it wasn't as action-packed as BW,that wasn't the point of the show. But when there was action,it certainly left an impression!

  • some say that the problem with beast machines is that they made the tone of the series a bit too dark lol

  • @Shin27ecstasy i like it dark. XD.

  • man I miss these shows

  • I consider this to be season 4 of Beast Wars, so I don't see a point in arguing over which one's better.

  • @SergeantLuke You have a good point there, it pretty much is.

  • this was an ok series

    but wasnt as action packed and AWESOME as the original

  • This was my show back in the day! It was the spin off of Beast Wars. I wasn't as good as Beast Wars, but the graphics were sick!

  • 0:20

    That flying mecha looks like Konami's mechs in Sky-Girls and Zone of The Enders.

  • this shit was THE shit! hella dope

  • Phat Planet by Leftfield

  • does anybody know what this song is called...?

  • beast wars was so much better than this

  • This is a good series and I like the music from all the episodes.

  • i loved the action figures way moer the normal transformers... to bad they diddnt last

  • damn i used to watch this when i was in school...ha, long time ago bwooy....!!

  • holy f***, im back to my middle school yr watching this after school.

  • I agree completely, I loved the story, 3D models, and especially the animations more in Beast Machines.

    Good to see someone who isn't a hater!

  • Oh man I miss this show! Thanks for uploading!

  • I dont give a crap what you guys say, Beast Wars, Beast Machines both were classic

  • @TobiasRieper agreed I was glad and fortunate to witness something GREAT

    the story in Beast Machine was very intriguing and deep.

  • @MrNeyus LMAO I just realized I replied to my doubled account.

  • arrrrrggg this is history's greatest monster!

  • @MethodD no it isn't you sally acorn loving furry' history's greastest monster was sonic satAM

  • hmmmmmmm, yeh i spose ur all right, i laughed alot more to beast wars

  • i loved this show when i was like 3 or 4 and i still do even though im 14

  • mainframe was badass back in the day.

    reboot, beast wars, beast machines.

    i miss these shows.

  • War Planets, too.

  • Beast Wars > Beast Machines

  • 100% agreed.

    Beast Wars was so much better.

  • beast wars was much better than beast machines from story to dialogues.

  • yea, optimus primal wasnt even the same

    I watched it all last year and it just changed their personalities

  • even the toys, Waspinator pwnage!

  • you have to be a sucker to pick this over the beast wars!!

  • beast wars was the best cartoon ever made.i mean for the 90s it was awesome much better than cartoons like yugi oh and that weakass pokemon.on the other hand Dragon ball Z was a blast

  • I'll admit, Pokemon and yu gi oh were good....for their first 3 "season" but anything comminga after...who gives a fuck?

  • @shaban96 I have to agree that I'll always prefer Beast Wars to Beast Machines... but Beast Machines had a special "dark" feel to it, something unique... like you had a weird dream about Beast Wars and this is what you saw...

  • ooohhhhh mann...... the good memories! This was the definitive show to wake up to every morning! this and beast wars. everything from story to action was phenomenal. Thx for posting and the intro song is called leftfield- phat planet

  • Beast Machines wasn't such a bad idea, but they should have kept the writers for Beast Wars. Also, the computer graphics technology may have been better, but the actual art itself was hideous.

  • i kinda like  prime in his ground/flying form

  • This show was awesome, I was a huge Beast Wars fan but BI think Beast Machine is just really one of thoughs perfect RARE Sequels ever made. Beast Machine's did everything right from music to its dark setting. Love this show! :)

  • ooh iimemba watching this show when iiwas little..

    ooh this was the SHiT!

    no a days the cartoons are whack!

  • Beast Machines was the bomb, all u haters are hatin too much.

  • is beast wars and beast machines the same?

  • no beast wars is on earth with activation codes and decepticons,beast machines is with autobots on cybertron with veicons

  • Beast Machines was continuing from Beast Wars though. I didn't like Beast Machines that much especially compared to Beast Wars, that was definitely where it was at lol.

  • Watching this show made me feel cool.

  • I remember this back in the days

  • OH YEAH! OLD SCHOOL!

  • what is the name of this song?

  • Its called "Phat Planet" by Leftfield

  • Theirs this song that's always playing when there's some sort of conflict or fight in Beast Machines. Figured it was just part of the OST, but I heard part of it being used in so NFL commercial a while back so I guess not. If anyone know the name of the song, it would be a huge help.

  • No on, not the opening theme. Here, I'll give you and example.

    Search up: Beast Machines - The Reformatting - 3/3. The song that is playing right as this part of the episode starts.

  • optimus's primes head doesnt look like the original head im a bit disapointed

  • me to besides i hate this show but i like the theme song

  • i liked this series i just hated rattraps and cheetors robot mode especially rettrap like he has no weapons just wheels

  • i agree i that is why i hate the show the maximals looks are awful the veicons are way better

  • IMHO the best Transformers series, just edges out G1 and better then Beast Wars (and way better then any of the Japanese animated crap). This is also the most grown up and adult of any Transformers series, which is another reason why it appeals to me. Plus it's visuals are easily the best. In short, for me it would be:

    1 - Beast Machines

    2 - Transformers G1

    3 - Beast Wars

    The rest I pretty much hate.

  • Oh, and also the finale of Beast Machines and the fight between Primal and Megatron is IMHO the best fight ever in Transformers, and also one of the best episodes.

    Also guys, whilst I love Beast Wars, some of you might want to re-watch the first half of S1, and you will find that it actually sucks quite a lot. Only towards the end of S1 and onwards does BW improve.

  • Would have to agree with you, Beast Machines gets an incredibly hard time from fans who aren't able to appreciate that in order to make something good you have to take risks. I also think that, as Beast Machines was still being watched by a younger audience, they weren't able to digest the more adult concepts the plot was weaving.

    And for all the criticism he got, Primal proved himself a worthy leader and warrior in the end.

  • wow i feel 12 all over again

  • the song for this, Phat Planet is awesome though

  • Beast wars actually were better but as beast era fan I had to watch this series too :)

  • this show sucked..........beast wars was so much better/

  • yeah, same here.

  • i loved this show it was siick

  • holy shit!! i remember this shit aww man i used to luv this show en i was lik 5

  • you have 6?

  • that was a cool intro

  • I watched beast machines when I was like... eleven or twelve I think? So maybe I was a bit older than it's average viewer. I REALLY liked this show, even more than beast wars. I thought its darkness and crazy, omg-our-entire-world-has-gone-­to-pieces theme was unique. Did they ever finish it though? I feel like I never knew how it ended....

  • yea, megatron and optimus was reformatted in the cybertron core and i forgot how all the transformers came back to life at the end. But i liked beast wars more than beast machines though but i like the original transformers the most. armada was my third best but the other remakes like animated are trash

  • I haven't watched this series much, but I like it so far.

  • I watched Beast Wars when i was like 3.

  • I remember watching this a little bit, but I didn't like the new looks. I'm glad it was made though. Its a neat marriage between beast wars and the original. It needed to be made to resolve the whole thing.

  • the theme song is creepy

  • Indeed... All of the music in this series is creepy... I wish there was a soundtrack album... Oh, and by the way, the theme song is the track called "Phat Planet" by Leftfield from the album "Rythm & Stealth"

  • beastwars was better in my opinion

  • the show is decent its story is cool and they look cool but it lost the funienes of beast wars and almost made this show creepy, dark. but it is better than some of the other shit (cybertron,RID) but beast wars is ways better. The toys for beast machines were mostly crap exept for BP optimus primal. but even though every one thought supreme cheetor sucked i thougt he was kinda cool(exept for the fact he has no lips and cant realy hold his sword) any way i thiught beast machine is pretty decent

  • ANYTHING is better than the Unicron Trilogy.

  • omg this fucking show is the best its all like techno crazy in the city beast wars was really good to but beast machines was so crazy

  • Beast Wars was better then beast machines, yes. But damn guys.. beast machines wasn't THAT bad.. in fact it was pretty damn good.

    A lot of the things people are saying are things you learn more of when you watch.. your judging it by it's cover. Beast Machines is good so just put aside your high expectations and enjoy it as it is.

  • yes beast wars was better but I dont like

    the fact the optimas primal lost his body

    witch was optimal optimus and on beast machines he was back to optimus primal witch

    I fid that fucking stupid I used to own primal

    prime witch should of been on beast machines

    whuy wasnt he and megatron stole optimus primals body that was fucking gay.

  • Well said, this is a brilliant series, the first Transformers show which is aimed at an older audience. There are so many great episodes in this series, and storyarc regading the techno-organic isn't that bad.

  • just another way they could sell toys

  • BRAZIL:Essa abertura é bem legal.

  • I think this season (Beast Machines) is a bit weird, they still look like animals even though they transformed!!!!

  • this show was not as good as Beast Wars BUT it was still good...it had its own dark, techno feel to it and some interesting plots and character designs

  • I only liked this for the theme song, thanks for the name of the song

  • i really never liked this one, but its cool to see it again

  • one inhibitor of this series was that when you watched it for the first episode you werem't too sure it was the next season of Beast Wars so to say,

  • }poen ingles sheet

  • THE SONG IS CALLED "PHAT PLANET-LEFTFIELD"

    enjoy crystal method as well :)

  • the main reason imo why people hate beast machines is that isnt action-packed like in beast wars and had philosophical measures bout the uses and abuses of technology. if the last one was out of this (and cuz its a transformers, where i dont remember any philosophical matters) i believe that it could be good series not better than beast wars still a good installation at the transformers franchise (even hasbro admmited that it wasnt good series)

  • hey umm wats the diference between beast wars and beast machines..isnt it the same? i see all the characters as beast wars.

    please tell info me as much as you can.thanx.

  • beast machines is sequel to beast wars. in bm, the maximals go back to cybertron only to find it occupied by sparkless robots the vehicons. primal cheetor rattrap and blackarachnia who are shown here are infected by a virus that makes them not transform. the oracle the one who made the 1st transformers reformat them in new forms. they find that megatron of predacons is behind the vehicons. the maximals dont transform anymore like in bw. they have to concetrate to transform.

  • thank you.

  • the only reason to watch it is to know what happened with the maximals when they came back to cybertron.

  • how can i download it in limewire the theme song? i put search beast machines and it and show anything

  • fuck the maximals!

  • Megatron?!?!? i watched all the beast wars season. Megatron was supposed to be locked up

  • nope, tied on top of the shuttle.

  • yeah thats what i mentioned

  • one of my favorite shows

  • I love Beast Wars and I kind of like Beast Machines. I only problem I had with it was that all the Maximals who make it back from the Beast Wars are out of character.

  • Beast wars OWNED this sucked

    Plus to the person who asked why they made Optimus Primal a monkey

    Well primal, primmate

  • Beast Wars was much better than Beast Machines.

  • Ew... any beast wars fan had to hate this show.  I did. Talk about a let down...

  • the only thing i like about this piece of shit show is tha music op it cool but i don't like anything else...beast wars was great but this is just lame

  • i like this show too

  • wow people hate people who like this show.

    how can you hate a transformer lover!

  • kinda true. beast wars was alot beter and actioned packed. why wouldnt poeple be pisedd off when all of a sudden, the good guys like, lose there metals and sweet , uh suits? lol

  • wow i member this from win i was a young . but i like beast wars better then this series . seen like in this series they tryed to do to much .

  • I think beast wars and beast machines are the same shit. They have a rat, a chita, a gorilla.. Beast Machines too.. I don't get it at all.. Wasn't this the sequel or something?

  • Yea. This occurs when the guys from beast wars return to cybertron

  • Alright. So why these people are complaining about it?

    I mean... they look different alright but damn.

  • how fucken gay i love beastwars i never missd a episode my favret one woz the last one were they found the transformers and yer

  • wtf!! compare to beast war, this is sucks

  • uhg beast machines i hated this show beast wars and transformers was so much better then this peice of shit

  • whats d name of d song

  • @Culexis, Megatron broke free of the ship and exited time space at that time. He probably exited YEARS before the Maximals returned to Cybertron so that is how he created the virus and captured the sparks.

  • i know how beast wars was and shit. but didn;t they "tie down" megatron to the roof of there lil shuffle that they launched from inside th arch??

  • beast wars was first then the next season was beast machines

  • how the fuck did this shit

    get started anyways. wtf happened to beastwars...

  • like they supposedly thought they beat megatron

    and were heading home to cybertron

    but then on their way back

    they discovered that megatron didnt die or something like that

    and something bad happened and their sparks got crazy

    and most people lost their memories like the rhino guy

    and the bird wolf dude

    and they ended up being decepticons in this series

    the rat dude became a total douche if i rmb correctly

  • Beast Wars was much better before this got started.

  • This is better than Transformers Cybertron NUFF SAID!

  • YA this show suckz i mean the orginale 1980's Transformers is the best and 2nd beastwars.

  • Beast Wars was pretty cool; but I had one problem with it really - Why did they make Optimus Prime a Gorilla!!!!!??? and Megatron got to be the T-rex, that was cool ... but Optimus Prime an f'ing Monkey?!!!!

    LOL

  • Prolly becuase a gorilla most resembles a human? I dunno but show was tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight :)

  • this wsas hardly transformers at this point

  • cheetor, botanica, thrust, tankor etc. the memories are flooding back!

  • Man this was my favorite show for like 1 season. I don't know why they didn't continue the storyline. As I remember they were searching through the innards of the planet, and it seemed really cool.

  • i remember at the end of beast wars they were flying home to cybertron and then the beast machines start and all of a sudden there all in old animal forms and they some how they had to find each other again it was confusing they should stick to the old storyline.P.S what happened to rhino?

  • i think rhinox got reformatted as tankor

  • lol rhinox efectuallly got transformed in tankor and starscream got transformerd in the other jets that don´t have legs

  • ha i dident know wen i wozx like 9 it woz left field who did the music on the opening scene

  • great intro music. sub par series.

  • This very suck.... first two parts was so cool- but this is not beast wars- this is other thing...:(

  • optimus was sooo ugly in this

  • this show sucked so much ass in so many levels

  • Damn straight

  • I'd take this over RID or the Unicron Trilogy (Armada, Energon and Cybertron) any day of the year. The newer shows are just too blatantly kiddy for me.

  • nice song at the op

  • this show sucked

  • OMFG I totally miss this show!!! I'd rather watch this instead of Viva Pinata any dayyyy!!!!!!! X(((((

  • this was not the beast this sucked ass

  • omg, I miss Beast Wars so much!!

  • Beast Machines was awesome.

  • Beast Wars was way better than this.

  • Damn right man beast wars was 50 times better that beast machines i wonder why they didn't keep in the lines of beast wars and not some random story line.

  • It isn't a random story line, it just sucks!

  • Damn I like both BW and BM! BM the last episode was sad :(

  • beast wars was the best
