| This article is about the Beast Wars II combiner. For the Classics combiner "God Neptune", see Piranacon (G1). For a list of other meanings, see Neptune (disambiguation). |
- God Neptune is a Predacon-allied Seacon combiner from the Beast Wars II portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.

For space pirates like the Seacons, pillaging and plundering often encounters considerable resistance from those who would rather keep their stuff. When the opposition is too much for the Seacons to handle individually, they combine into God Neptune (ゴッドネプチューン Goddo Nepuchūn): A towering powerhouse and their ultimate ace-in-the-hole.
Halfshell, leader of the Seacons, forms the dominant personality in this fusion, with each Seacon more or less maintaining autonomy over the limbs they form. While this allows God Neptune to boast a level of intelligence not seen in most combiners, it comes at a price. The flighty fembot Scylla will often abandon her position in the combination to pursue her own interests (almost always Scuba), leaving God Neptune to hop around on one leg and at the mercy of his enemies.
God Neptune is made up of:
- Halfshell (torso)
- Coelagon (left arm)
- Scylla (left leg)
- Sea Phantom (right arm)
- Terrormander (right leg)
