Transformers: Beast Wars Telemocha Series (トランスフォーマー ビーストウォーズ テレもちゃシリーズ) is the Japanese counterpart to the Transformers: Beast Wars 10th Anniversary line. The Telemocha Series features old Beast Wars molds redecoed to be show-accurate.

All toys come with a DVD containing an episode (or two) of the first season of the Beast Wars show, along with a photo-montage short called a "Diorama Story" that was tied into a cross-promotion with the Japanese release of the live-action movie's Fast Action Battlers line. These shorts depicted the figures interacting in a diorama, and together with a blurb on the Fast Action Battlers' packaging, presented a scenario in which the Autobots and Decepticons of the movie universe were somehow transported across the dimensions into the midst of the Beast Wars.

"Telemocha" is a combination of the words "television" (テレビジョン) and "omocha" (おもちゃ), the Japanese word for "toy". "Teletoy", essentially.

    Notes

    [edit]
    • While TakaraTomy reissued two of Tripledacus's components, namely Gimlet and Motorarm, as part of the Telemocha Series, they omitted DJ from the line-up. Therefore, the only way to complete Tripledacus from the Telemocha releases would be by using an original DJ toy.
    • At some point during the planning for the Telemocha Series, the idea was tossed around to create some brand new toys for the line. Internal TakaraTomy documents include designs for a jellyfish, a [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}manticore|{{#if:||manticore}}]], and a [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}triffid|{{#if:||triffid}}]].
