Seacon (BW)

The name or term "Seacon" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Seacon (disambiguation).

The Seacons are scurvy space pirates from the Beast Wars II portion of the Beast Era continuity, they is!

We are the pirates who don't do anything
We just stay home, and lie around
And if you ask us, to do anything we'll just tell you
We don't do anything!

With the Jolly Roger hoisted high and the cannon fuses smoldering, the Space Pirate Seacons (宇宙海賊シーコンズ Uchū Kaizoku Shīkonzu) sail the spaceways in a neverending search for plunder and power. These ferocious freebooters will gladly ally themselves with whomever proves most beneficial to their larcenous ends, be they Predacon or Maximal. In reality, the Seacons typically end up doublecrossing everybody, leaving them with few friends and a lot of enemies.

Their crew consists of:

• Halfshell, the greedy-yet-generous leader.
• Scylla, the lovesick squid of debatable beauty.
• Coelagon, the eldest member and source of senile "wisdom".
• Terrormander, the youthful slacker who's good in a fight but not for much else.
• Sea Phantom, the gluttonous dullard with a serious case of fin-in-mouth disease.

These scallywags can combine to form God Neptune, a powerhouse who keeps their rivals at bay (when his limbs aren't deserting him, that is).

• God Neptune (Multi-pack, 1998)
  • Japanese ID number: D-21
  • Accessories: Sword, super robot head, shell-shield/chestplate, 2 foot-plates, left & right fists

Sold only as a boxed set of five toys, God Neptune is a redeco of most of the Generation 1 Seacon team, combining Halfshell (torso), Coelagon, Scylla, Sea Phantom, and Terrormander. Since the set uses the Scramble City-style of construction, the body and limbs are interchangeable with similar-build combiner teams.

The set does not include a redeco of Nautilator, and almost all of the weapons and gun-mode stands for the individuals are also missing.

For unknown reasons, a great number of unboxed God Neptune sets—lacking all of their accessories, including combiner parts—ended up available on the secondary market. These went for considerably less than the "complete" releases, naturally.

This toy was later repurposed as Classics God Neptune in the comic arc Beast Wars Shattered Glass.

Notes

• Oddly, though they are referred to as such practically everywhere else, the term "Seacon" does not appear on the team's toy packaging.
