Woo! Newbie here.

I am happily surprised to see a fairly active group for Beast Wars. Just wanted to find a place to share my happiness at my mail delivery today. Recently I got back into Beast Wars and dug out my old toys. I decided to start trying to finish my old collection and went on eBay. Got the first of my purchases today. ^_^ I got RatTrap, Megatron, and the Fox Kid's version of Waspinator in the mail today. Eventually I need to get the properly colored Waspinator, but the one I have will do for now.

I'm thinking of taking some pictures of them with all the old members of my group. I wish I had the boxes for Waspinator and Megatron, though. I'm having a hard time figuring out how to transform them. XD

Hey welcome to the community! :D I think there is a site with all the instructions scanned. Did you try google?

I've looked around a bit but haven't found quite what I'm looking for. Did find a great site with pics of all the different versions of each character, though, so I know what to look for awhile I'm buying. ^_^

ok just so you know the FoxKids Waspinator is just a repaint, so the instructions are on Hasbro's actual website.

Welcome aboard! And yeah, BW toys are hella hard to transform. *_*

No kidding. I used to have the instructions for Inferno and I can't remember what I'm doing anymore. XD Doesn't help that his ant legs tend to fall off pretty easily. Almost lost one of them shooting it out of his gun. *lol*

*snerk* I think I like you already.

XD It had been a long time since I even looked at my Beast Wars stuff before I dug them out, so I was messing around with them and making sure I wasn't missing any pieces. I noticed Inferno's mouth looked like it was supposed to be able to have something in it and figured out it was one set of legs, so I stuck one in the gun and shot it at him. It bounced off and landed on the floor. Took me a bit to find exactly where it ended up. Gotta find somewhere else to do that before I shoot off projectiles again.

Hahaha, Inferno is such a troublemaker. And projectiles get lost so easily. I'm sure there are several missiles scattered around my apartment for that very reason.

Your story sounds similar to mine -- I was into the series, forgot about it, got back into it, bought toys, etc etc.

Anyway, welcome! If you like to role play, we are always looking for more BW characters at [livejournal.com profile] tf_ic_prompts

Hey, welcome on board. *Grins* I'm pretty sure you can find transforming instructions on Youtube, although maybe not for BW ones. >>

Here are Megatron's instructions. If you want more, just go to this link and insert the applicable character name.
