Editing Popular beast alternate modes

[[File:Class06-toy Grimlock.jpg|thumb|upright=2|There's more of these than you'd think.]]
Earth is a planet literally teeming with organic life forms. Millions of genera, of all shapes and sizes, inhabit the planet, and a [[Transformer|Cybertronian]] might scan any of them for a potential [[alternate mode]]. Some genera, however, are extremely popular with Cybertronians.

{{SITENAME}} has certain requirements for an animal to be listed here. There must be at least '''three unique toy molds''' (or in-fiction appearances, in the case of non-toy bodies/characters) that share the [[beast mode]]. There must also be at least '''one unique character per mold'''—a single character getting numerous revamps in similar bodies over the years would not count as a "popular mode." 

Each mold is listed on its own line, with all different-character decoes/[[retool]]s on the same line. The list is (more or less) organized in chronological order of toy release or fictional appearance.
