| '''''Beast Wars II: Super Robot Lifeform Transformers''''' (ビーストウォーズII 超生命体トランスフォーマー ''Beast Wars II: Chō Seimeitai Transformer''), pronounced "Beast Wars Second", was the first Japanese-only [[Beast Wars: Transformers (franchise)|''Beast Wars'' franchise]], consisting of the following components:

| *A [[Beast Wars II (toyline)|toyline]].
| |
| *A [[Beast Wars II: Super Lifeform Transformers (manga)|manga]] series.
| |
| *A [[Beast Wars II: Super Lifeform Transformers (cartoon)|cartoon]].

| The ''Beast Wars II'' toyline consisted almost entirely of [[redeco]]es (and the occasional [[retool]]) of [[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1]], ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'', ''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'', and American [[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|''Beast Wars'' toys]], although all new molds were created for the two faction leaders: [[Lio Convoy]], a white lion, [[Galvatron (BWII)|Galvatron]], a purple dragon, and [[Moon (BWII)| Moon]] an oft-abused robot space bunny anime mascot. Most of the [[Predacon (BW)|Predacons]] are mechanical while the [[Maximal]]s all have beast modes.

| The cartoon series aired in Japan between season one of [[Beast Wars: Transformers (cartoon)|''Beast Wars'']] and seasons two and three, in order to fill the gap until the later seasons could be dubbed into Japanese. It was followed by ''[[Beast Wars Neo: Super Lifeform Transformers (franchise)|Beast Wars Neo]]''. The Cybertron (Maximal) team starts off with Lio Convoy, [[Apache]], [[Bighorn]], [[Tasmania Kid]], [[Scuba]], and [[Diver (BWII)|Diver]]. The Destron (Predacon) side starts off with Galvatron, [[Megastorm]], [[Starscream (BWII)|Starscream]], [[BB]], [[Dirge (BWII)|Dirge]], and [[Thrust (BWII)|Thrust]].

| Years later, [[IDW Publishing|IDW]] worked the characters from ''Beast Wars II'' and at least some version of the events of the anime into [[Beast Wars timeline (IDW)|their Beast Wars comic continuity]].
