Beast Wars remains a celebrated and colourful part of Transformers history, although the Transmetal 2 line-up is notorious for pushing the boundaries in numerous ways! Today, we take a tour through this weird and whacky '90s roster, acknowledging that we really may never see something like this ever again.

We're back for the long-awaited follow-up to episode #68 where we began exploring Takara's 1998 Beast Wars II line, and now it's time to talk bad guys!

With a new season of Transformers Earthspark landing, it seemed like a good time to finally welcome Mr Nick Roche to the podcast! Well-known for his work on the cartoon, his legendary contributions to the IDW comics series, and for just being a literal force of nature, Nick makes for a wonderful guest during what is likely one of the most bizarre episodes we've ever done...

And the Mapes Brothers (who you might recognise)
Everyone loves a good Minibot, but something about the tiny Transformers was extra special in 1985! These five are some of the most unusual releases of the era, but they're as charming now as they ever were back in the day, showcasing exactly how to do a small 'pocket money' toy with a sense of flair. Today, we appreciate the little guys!

Now that the dust has settled on Missing Link Convoy, it's time for us to dig into this landmark Transformers release and see if it lives up to 40 years of hype! Is this the ultimate exercise in franchise nostalgia, and what might we hope to see from the line next?

And the Mapes Brothers (who you might recognise)
So, you think you know Transformers? Our hosts certainly do, but can they make it through Sixo's quiz on the Generation 1 toy line? We hope you enjoy listening to the results as much as we did recording it, and maybe playing along to see if you can beat our scores as you go!

And the Mapes Brothers (who you might recognise)
It's our 75th episode AND our third anniversary, so we're going back to one of our favourite years of toys to celebrate! Despite not being as widely lauded as what came before it, 1988 was a crucial period of change for Transformers. With new gimmicks - Powermasters, Pretenders, Micromasters and more! - and a return-of-sorts to Earthbound vehicular forms, there's a lot to say about this one. Which is probably why we brought back Maz to help chat through it all then!

And the Mapes Brothers (who you might recognise)
Unlike his nemesis, Optimus Prime, Transformers most maniacal villain has never settled on just one alternate form. Yes, Megatron has been a gun, a tank, a jet, a car and many more things besides! Today, the team deliver their definitive* ranking of every** Megatron alternate mode ever.

Before Titans, the Transformers toys giving the biggest bang for your buck were those found in the Supreme class, and often with gimmicks and features to match their sizeable stature! For this supremely-styled chat, the team take a look at the history of these often weird but wonderful specimens.

Clear plastic is as notorious as GPS or discolouration when it comes to toy collector woes, albeit much more commonly encountered! Yet despite that, clear plastic isn't always a problem, and can be highly effective and a lot of fun when used properly! Today the team talk the good, the bad & the ugly.

And the Mapes Brothers (who you might recognise)
It's the most wonderful time of the year... which means we get to discuss our favourite toys from 2023! What Transformers products most delighted us, whether they were naughty or nice? The team get settled in for a festive chat on all this and more from the last twelve months.
We're back on the Beasts for our latest episode except this time, we're off to Japan for one of the most colourful bits of late '90s Transformers - it's Beast Wars II! Take a tour on the wild side as Sixo introduces Liam and Jason to the delights of the Takara 1998 Maximal crew, be it lions, bugs or even a giant octopus!
NOTE: play along at home using the TFWiki as a guide (or get on our Patreon Discord, where all of the pics & more will be presented for your leisure!): https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Transformers:_Beast_Wars_(Japanese_toyline)
It's still early days for Skybound's new 'Energon Universe', but there's plenty to talk about already! Kicking off a new miniseries on the comics, today the team examine the first two issues of Daniel Warren Johnson's acclaimed new Transformers series, along with Robert Kirkman's Void Rivals. It begins here... spoilers abound!
Presenting an extra special episode now, as we delve deep into our bulging mailbag to answer questions from our dedicated listeners about Transformers, toy collecting, the podcast and much more than meets the ear. We're joined for this one by friend of the pod and all-round good guy Jason; but considering it's #66, will everyone make it out alive?
After the highs of Binaltech, a new 'real car' robots in disguise line emerged from TakaraTomy in 2009, only this time they were smaller and more stylised - it's Alternity! The team take a look at this repaint-heavy roster of toys and get ready to dish out the Alternity facts.
We're back for a third round of #Transformers 'hidden gems', where each of the team selects two toys from over the years that they feel never got enough love. Or maybe they did?
#Transformers #hiddengems #toycollecting
Now that TFNation 2023 is done, we roped in organisers Dave Mapes (who you might recognise) and Billy Stripes to give an insight into running Europe's largest Transformers convention! Get the skinny on the behind-the-scenes action here.

And the Mapes Brothers (who you might recognise!)
TFNation has come and gone again for another year! The cornerstone of the UK's Transformers social calendar is always a fun and exciting time, and the team are here to relive all the highlights from 2023's event... including the toys we met along the way!
#Transformers #TFNation #toycollecting
How do Transformers fans respond to mysterious new toy reveals that are yet to be confirmed? The recent Missing Link Optimus Prime (Convoy) announcement from Takara Tomy could be the most significant collector-aimed TF product in the last two decades, but before it was all official, we had a chat about our reactions to blurry unconfirmed toy reveals!
#Transformers #Generation1 #MissingLink
We're back for another stop on the tour through each year of the classic Transformers toy line! 1987 was rather appropriately a year of significant change for the robots in disguise, with 'blockier' toys and new gimmicks such as Headmasters and Targetmasters. Some may even say it's one of the best years ever... perhaps even on this podcast!
The robots in disguise are back on the big screen, and there's plenty to say about it all! Prepare for a spoiler-filled deep dive into everything we enjoyed about the latest film and a fair bit of critiquing besides as we get into it with Transformers Rise of the Beasts. Let them come!
#Transformers #RiseoftheBeasts #BeastWars
In a very special episode, Triple Takeover sits down with Hasbro to talk all things Transformers! We are delighted to welcome Hasbro's Ben "Bmac" MacCrae (Associate Brand Manager of Global Brand Development & Marketing) and Mark Maher (Transformers Generations Lead Product Designer) onto the show for an extensive chat about our favourite brand of transforming robot toys - this is one you won't want to miss!
There are no doubt moments where every toy collector is asked by their friends or family that eternal question: why? Why collect toys to begin with? And why is it Transformers that appeals so much, both now and back when you were little? Today we're getting a bit philosophical and attempting to answer all that and more.
We frequently hear from our listeners how we've 'enabled' them on various toy purchases as a result of what we've discussed on the show. Well, to prove we're no different, the team are looking at some specific examples of self-enablement, all of which are non-Transformers related! We do it to ourselves.
We all love robots in disguise but what about actual robots? Robosen has already made waves with their fully interactive self-transforming Optimus Prime and they have more on the way soon! But where do these sorts of consumer robotics sit in the market and just how appealing are they for more traditional toy collectors? Let's find out.
#Transformers #ToyCollecting #TripleTakeover #Robosen #OptimusPrime
The unofficial 3rd party Transformers scene can feature diamonds and duds, be it Masterpiece, Generations, Legends scale or more. Check out the Triple Takeover team's best and worst experiences with 3P TFs!
It started in the best way possible with the iconic pink Hot Rod, but now the Transformers Retro reissue line promises to bring collectors yet more exciting new takes on classic G1 toys that we could never have dreamt of! With Hound and Thundercracker currently on release, we look at what could be on the horizon and which other characters we would love to see given the same treatment.
Anyone who grew up with Transformers in the '80s or '90s will remember the allure of the many protoypes visible in the catalogues of the era, especially as they were often different to the toys we had in hand. Well, today, we're joined by a very special guest in Ras, a vintage prototype enthusiast who has the largest collection of pre-production Transformers currently known, including the only privately-owned copy of G1 Unicron from 1986! If you've ever been interested in what these prototypes represent, this is an episode not to miss.
We're back for a second round of Transformers 'hidden gems', where each of the team selects two toys from over the years that they feel never got enough love. Or maybe they did?
Triple Takeover celebrates its 50th podcast episode by tackling The Transformers: The Movie. A discussion beyond good, beyond evil, beyond your wildest imagination.
