Battle Beasts

-In the Beging......
For those of you who don't remember these guys the Battle Beasts was a series of mini action figures from Hasbro from 1987. Each of these creatures was basically a humanoid version of an animal from the wild kingdom with a weapon and a heat sensitive icon on their chest that indicated a special elemental power (Wood, Fire or Water.)

Thing is Battle Beasts were known as Beast formers in Japan and had actually appeared on the Japanese version of the Transformers cartoon in the 80's.
I didnt figure this out, till i watched the Headmaster series

The fought on Planet Beast, and if you look in the DW TF summer special, Megatron tracks the Predacons down to none other than Planet Beast

ASLO - Scourge (Flame Convoy) of TFC is ruler of Planet Beast
-tho for some reason, the little cretures are no where to be found
