- For this Transformers Talk, I wanted to tackle a topic that hasn't been covered by a lot of the Transformers RUclips community, the cancelled 2001 toyline, TransTech. Designed as a followup to Beast Machines, It has an interesting history to it, and its legacy can be found spread out throughout a lot of the brand throughout the years. It would have brought back characters like Optimus Prime, Starscream and many more, and has some very unique designs to it. It has certainly earned its place in the Transformers History Books.

It is a shame we never to see Peter Cullen And Scott McNeil Talk to each other
Totally forgot about this, but I love these character designs! We need more Y2K aesthetic craziness in Transformers. Also noticed that one mockup of TransTech Megatron looks like the APC from Aliens in vehicle mode
3:27 The reason why Megatron looks like a Mobile Suit from the gundam series is because it actually is a gundam kit (can't remember the MS name tho)....which is incredibly weird in my opinion...
i went to Botcon 2000, and saw poster art for Transtech and fell in love with it. It took Beast wars and made them into machines: Cheetor car, Monkey Truck, etc.
Excellent video! The only thing I'd be tempted to add to this would be that what we came to know as RID (2001), AKA Car Robots over in Japan, was only imported because TransTech got cancelled and Hasbro went "Oh crap, we need something to put Transformers on shelves with!". For which I'm personally quite grateful as those toys rocked.
Thanks! Yeah I was debating adding that too but was unsure if it would interrupt the narrative or not. And RID can deserve its own talk, there's a lot there
Great vid! I learned about transtech when I was dumpster diving through TFwiki a while back.
Ultimately, I'm glad it didnt get made because doubling down on the failure of BM may have actually killed the brand, vs Armada which is still the best selling TF line to date.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it.
@@TheDoomerDen Maybe They Released the Unicron Trilogy after Transtech, And I bet Peter Cullen, Frank Welker And Corey Burton would be honoured to reprise their roles
Thank you! This is a great video that shines a light on what happened after Beast Machines. The art concept for all characters was amazing and youri totally right, the designs did migrate into future Transformer shows. Thanks a mil for this video! Great work!
Thank you! So happy you enjoyed it
@The Doomer Den - I have an inquiry and a request. Do I write it here or is there a way to DM you? Please let me know.
@@wolfram07 you can write it here or reach out to me on Discord if you want
I would have loved the Transformers TransTech toys.
as always, content is presented in an excellent manner...understandable by everyone...keep up the great videos!
Thank you!
As a Rhode Island native and one of the kids who used to watch Beast Wars and Beast Machines, I can honestly say it was a MAJOR disappointment that Transtech wasnt continued in some form as a show or toyline. I would have liked to see a new Cybertron and Cheetor take a leadership role. I loved the concepts and I thought they'd revitalize the series.
6:45 AAH Transformers Armada. A.k.a Transformers Pokemon. Seriously though, having minicons be Pokemon. Sher genius.
Gotta catch 'em all
Love it or hate it, Armada has the best incarnation of Starscream
I know it's been 20 years. But i hope Transtech still get's made some day. The Beast Wars story is incomplete with out Transtech.
recently found your channel and i love your TF content and i would love to see more of it
Thanks, I really appreciate that! I'm glad you like it. I'm working to have some more TF video concepts so I can make some new scripts, so expect a bit more soon
I want this transtech series and toy line to be a reality I just came across a hour or 2 ago when I was looking up sequels for transformers 6 and rise of the beasts
I hope they make petition about Transformers Trantech tv show being bought back and and make the animation to look like the 1990s and early 2000s CGI and not change the story
It's such a shame we never got this, the designs are awesome!. Granted beast machines already had a brilliant conclusion so there wasn't a need for a sequel.
Btw the audio in your intro sounded like metroid prime. If that's the case it's great to see another fan
Actually beast machines wasn’t that good minus the villains
@@ryanmatthews3609 beast machines is the best tf show. So yes it was THAT GOOD
@@novustalks7525 no it wasn't
@@ryanmatthews3609 yes it was
@@novustalks7525 no it's not
4:47 I KNEW HE WAS ALIVE!
I want the concept art of the transformers transtech to draw them and concept models for the toys 3d print the stuff
Great video. I was wondering if you can do a video talking about the shopping, sneaker and scalper bots that is affecting the manufacturing and shopping of all retail stores and consumers.
It happened to me recently due to a recent purchase of the G I Joe Cobra Island Major Bludd release, in which I tried to get the Cobra Island Major Bludd release at my local Target store. I paid for it and I was going to get it from the local Target store this past Saturday, and then I found out, that when I paid for it on Friday of last week, it was immediately sold out after I paid for it. I was refunded the money, but, I really think that this is what I have found out, and is currently a problem. This is what I think needs to be addressed. I have contacted Target Corporate, Walmart online, PayPal and even Hasbro Pulse about it.
There are shopping and scalper bots that are currently working that are scalping even the current release of the Snake Eyes and Timber from Hasbro Pulse website and is selling it for an inflated price on eBay, even though it is not available for retail stores until next month.
There's even shopping bots like Carnage and EVE AIO X that are currently available for download. I talk about it in my Major Bludd review video on my channel in the description box, but I think that it needs to be addressed, even with your subscribers, because it is happening now, and to me, that's an idea for your next video.
If scalpers are using these scalper bots and shopping bots on eBay for the PS5, what is to say that they are not using it for G I Joe or anything Hasbro Pulse website related, including Transformers as well?
Thanks! That definitely is an interesting one, I'd love to do a video on this, though it'd be another one a bit research heavy. I know for a fact there's documentation of bot use on Twitter, especially during Firefly/Cobra Viper's release.
Right now, in regards to G.I. Joe related content, I want to work on a "State of the Brand" type video, as an update to my previous Classified video, but I'd like to wait for Yo Joe June to conclude to fully paint a more fair picture.
Yay it was meeeeeeeee
I would love to see Trans-tech made.

What Happened to transformers hero but why it come transformers animated
Trans tech was passed over for robot in disguise not armada.
Robots in Disguise was the filler series they selected to import from Japan, as they developed Armada. Very few RiD toys were newly designed.
the little animated dude is not necessary to the video, over done, and is annoying.. it makes your video far less enjoyable ..drop the ugly cartoon in the corner for the love of god please.
We need predacon megatron back
We did twice
@blueraccoon1088 na I mean beast wars megatron in the movie david Kay as the voice of megatron, yess!
