(Ages 8 and Up / Approx. Retail Price: £22.99 / Available: Summer 2021)

(Re)start a vintage Beast Wars collection with this TRANSFORMERS: VINTAGE BEAST WARS RATTRAP 4-inch figure! Inspired by the classic 90s toy, RATTRAP is designed like the original version – including figure styling, packaging, and art from the 1996 Beast Wars releases, plus classic tech specs and accessories. The RATTRAP figure converts from rat to robot mode in 3 steps, also features spring-action one-step conversion from rat to robot mode activated by pulling up on the base of his tail and comes with a snap-together blaster accessory that can be stored in a secret location inside the rat mode hind legs.

Scouring city streets for PREDACON enemies, RATTRAP maintains his strength by feeding on grunge and grime and any wretched refuse he may encounter along the way. His fellow MAXIMALS rely on his reconnaissance reports to locate enemy outposts. Inspired by the original Beast Wars packaging in the “rocky bubble,” this pack features the original Beast Wars logo and character art. Clip out and save the on-box tech specs to share, then see how this figure stacks up against other heroic MAXIMALS and evil PREDACONS (each sold separately, subject to availability). 

Transformers: Vintage Beast Wars Cheetor

(Ages 8 and Up / Approx. Retail Price: £22.99 / Available: Summer 2021)

(Re)start a vintage Beast Wars collection with this TRANSFORMERS: VINTAGE BEAST WARS CHEETOR 5-inch figure! Inspired by the classic 90s toy, CHEETOR is designed like the original version – including figure styling, packaging, and art from the 1996 Beast Wars releases, plus classic tech specs and accessories. The CHEETOR figure features green eyes, a flip-down mutant head, converts from cheetah to robot mode in 9 steps, and comes with a classic tail blaster and water-squirting “gut blaster” weapon accessories. The tail blaster attaches as a cheetah tail, and the water blaster attaches as a cheetah stomach in beast mode, with the water blaster functional in both modes. 

Like a bolt of greased lightning, CHEETOR strikes fast and strikes hard. Quiet and confident with incredible reflexes, he is equally efficient when battling in robot mode or his artificially enhanced organic earth form. CHEETOR constantly stalks the jungle searching for PREDACON enemies, daring them to challenge him and his laser-powered quasar cannon. Inspired by the original Beast Wars packaging in the “rocky bubble,” this pack features the original Beast Wars logo and character art. Clip out and save the on-box tech specs to share, then see how this figure stacks up against other heroic MAXIMALS and evil PREDACONS (each sold separately, subject to availability). 

Transformers: Vintage Beast Wars Optimus Primal

(Ages 8 and Up / Approx. Retail Price: £44.99 / Available: Summer 2021)

(Re)start a vintage Beast Wars collection with this TRANSFORMERS: VINTAGE BEAST WARS OPTIMUS PRIMAL 8.5-inch figure! Inspired by the classic 90s toy, OPTIMUS PRIMAL is designed like the original version – including figure styling, packaging, and art from the 1996 Beast Wars releases, plus classic tech specs and accessories. The OPTIMUS PRIMAL figure converts from robot to gorilla mode in 7 steps, features a flip-down mutant head and the switch on the back of the figure that triggers chest-beating gorilla arm action and comes with seven accessories, including skull flail, 2 Cyber Blades, and 4 missile accessories. The flail accessory can be stored in the right arm, and the left arm opens to reveal a double-barreled missile launcher!

OPTIMUS PRIMAL has biogenetically re-engineered his body structure into a gargantuan robotic gorilla! Cybernetically fused musculature has enhanced strength to super-powered levels. Shoulder-mounted, mega-blast missile cannons launch devastating attacks upon foolish PREDACON invaders. When they force him to fight, they force him to win! Inspired by the original Beast Wars packaging, this pack features the original Beast Wars logo and character art. Clip out and save the on-box tech specs to share, then see how this figure stacks up against other heroic MAXIMALS and evil PREDACONS (each sold separately, subject to availability). 

Transformers: Vintage Beast Wars Predacon Megatron

(Ages 8 and Up / Approx. Retail Price: £44.99 / Available: Summer 2021)

(Re)start a vintage Beast Wars collection with this TRANSFORMERS: VINTAGE BEAST WARS PREDACON MEGATRON 7.5-inch figure! Inspired by the classic 90s toy, PREDACON MEGATRON is designed like the original version – including figure styling, packaging, and art from the 1996 Beast Wars releases, plus classic tech specs and accessories. The PREDACON MEGATRON figure features classic Beast Wars conversion from robot to T-Rex mode in 11 steps, bat-like wing adornments that fold to become a mutant head, and comes with 2 missile accessories that can be stored in the figure’s thighs. The missile launchers work in both modes, and he also features a water-squirting T-Rex head that functions in both modes.

Millions of years ago, Tyrannosaurus rex ruled the earth. Today, MEGATRON plans to do the same! Duplicating dinosaur DNA stolen from human research labs, the evil leader has re-engineered his body structure and equipped it with fearsome high-tech firepower. Inspired by the original Beast Wars packaging, this pack features the original Beast Wars logo and character art. Clip out and save the on-box tech specs to share, then see how this figure stacks up against other heroic MAXIMALS and evil PREDACONS (each sold separately, subject to availability).
