Beast Wars Alternate Season 3
Posted: Sat Dec 09, 2023 10:37 am
This, was the end of Season Two. This is where I personally would have had Season Three continue. Not with a deux ex machina and last minute saves. But with Megatron's gamble realised. But, this is Transformers. So here's the deal. This New Season 3 still has to incorporate the toyline presented IE Transmetal 2.
Basic
Nightglider
Optimus Minor
Scarem
Sonar
Spittor
Stinkbomb
Deluxe
Cheetor
Dinobot
Iguanus
Jawbreaker
Prowl
Ramulus
Tripredacus Agent
Scourge
Mega
Blackarachnia
Cybershark
Arcee
Ultra
Megatron
Tigerhawk
In terms of story, I'd lean into the themes of Other Victories. Rewriting history, as Megatron did, leads to the dispatch of Tigerhawk.
The setting and plot, I'd borrow from Beast Machines. No Vehicons, sadly. Just a Cybertron ruled by an increasingly unhinged TM2 Megatron. While also reversing the previously established social standing of Maximals and Predacons. The Maxi's now are a hunted minority. Gradually recruited by Tigerhawk to overthrow Megatron. Since his Vok powers aren't enough to do so on his own. They are the only ones, other than Megatron, aware of the original timeline.
The POV would be Optimus Minor (voiced by Garry Chalk). With all prior voice cast reprising titular roles or voicing new ones. The distinction being these are not the same bots that we knew. G1 namesakes however, would be those characters EG PrOwl, Arcee and Scourge.
I was considering including the latter made Fuzors, but then the cast would probably be too bloated.
