The Beast Machines and IDW intepretations of Magmatron derives from the old misconception (among both official and fandom sources from the western side) that BWII and Neo took place in-between BW and BM, rather than thousands of years after. It wouldn't be until better translations of II, Neo and other Japanese sources were made that this misconception was cleared up.
@ChrisMcFeely7 ай бұрын
See, I don't like calling it a misconception; it's obvious the original Japanese intent was to have their two BW series be set in same time period as the BW toon - they just screwed up the continuity when they did it (partly by genuine error, partly because they're not mind readers and couldn't predict what BW and BM would go on to do). Then seven years they later made a timeline to fix it, undoing the errors by declaring the series really were set in the future.

Hi Chris, Great video About Transformers: The Basics on Magmatron, keep them coming, Also your latest video was outstanding, Also Magmatron is not only one of my favorite Preadcons, but also one of my favorite and best Transformers Beast Wars characters of all time, Also The following information/Bio/ Profile is the following Comic Books they are:1.Transformers Beast Wars: Sourcebook(limited, mini-series)#2(of)3(2007),2.Transformers Beast Wars Sourcebook Trade PaperBack(2009), & 3. Transformers: A Visual Guide Hardcover(2019), Also the following bio/profile/Handbook entry for Magmatron is: Allegiance:(as of 2024):Preadcon, Function/Primary Function(as of 2024): General, Transformation/Beast Modes(as of 2024):1.SkySaur/Landsaur/Seasaur, Magmatron is not only a Force to be reckoned with on both sides of the Preadcon/Maximal divide. Also not only is Magmatron the General of the Preadcons, not only is he Charismatic, and level headed, but also he is inspirational and influential, Also He's just a Villain an Honorable Villain like Dinobot: proud to be a Preadcon warrior, but has his own strict code and even possesses some redeeming qualities like a love and respect for his own home. So my takeaway is that Magmatron tends to be a bad guy until Unicron gets involved, at which point he'll go out of his way to help out and sacrifice himself if need be. Also Magmatron might be a Villain but Cybertron. Is still his home. Also I for one agree with Fre4k4life He may be a bad guy, but he's not a bad guy🙂 Also Just like Dinobot. A Preadcon who actually has Redeeming qualities. Also Magmatron is easily one of my favorite characters out of the Japanese G1 Continuity. Also Thanks for shining the Spotlight on this great, if obscured character. I love to see Magmatron appear in a future TF cartoon or movie. Also I Gotta say Magmatron sounds like a real badass. He's got a super unique design, he is a highly competent fighter and honorable in methods and tactics, and is smart enough to know that guys like Unicron are not to be triffled with. Hope we get to see more of him in some form of media in the future. Well I can thank Beast Wars Transformers The Unofficial Guide by J.E. Alvarez. For introducing me to Japanese Beast Wars characters and toys. Also The fact that Beast Wars Neo is when the Maximals and Preadcons finally calling a truce shows that War is indeed Hell. Also Good work on the video on Magmatron, my friend! I've got both The Transformers Beast Wars Sourcebook Trade PaperBack and The Transformers Beast Wars Omnibus Trade PaperBack featuring Magmatron, The Preadcons and the rest of the characters in the Comic book. I also like his saurian chimera form too! Also That new Magmatron figure look so cool!

This was such a cool episode!❤ Thanks Chris for making this.💯 Interestingly enough, I do remember seeing a HASBRO release of this character in stores years ago. However, I don't remember it being for BEAST MACHINES but instead I thought it was released for BEAST WARS. I remember sometime after the TV series BEAST WARS had ended that Hasbro was still releasing figures for it. And I remember being very confused because they were figures that were NEVER shown in the TV series. Like for example the character MAGNABOSS. That was a triple character released by Hasbro for the BEAST WARS series that I had no idea who that was. It wasn't until I started watching your videos Chris that I learned there was MORE BEAST WARS series and comics released after the 1st one in Japan. And in that Era there when I seen the Magnaboss character in stores is when I thought I remembered seeing the Magmatron character also released for BEAST Wars because it was both leader characters for the Maximals and Predacons respectively. And then I remember shortly after seeing those characters in stores, they were clearanced out and no more BEAST WARS characters were seen again.

“Magmatron Inuk Chuk!!” That’s what I imagine magmatron saying to activate “Dino-centipede” mode.

I am both waiting for the new toy and somewhat angry at it. Mainly because I have been working on making my own version with 3D-modeling for the past year.
