- The Beast is
an abomination that we like to pretend doesn't exista combined robot from an unknown portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
The Beast is the combined form of the five Dinobots. Like them, his strength is awe inspiring, far beyond the other combiners. Unfortunately, he is also a mindless monster, whose single impulse is simply to kill, regardless of allegiance. He is also an aesthetic nightmare of broken robot parts, most of which can't clearly be recognized as part of any Dinobot.
Fiction
The Beast Within
With the Autobots moments from death (some several moments past death) Grimlock laid all his cards on the table and combined with his team mates into The Beast. After killing the Decepticon combiners, and any Decepticon foolish enough to attack him, he turned on the Autobots. Optimus Prime attempted to reason with him, but to no avail. The Beast Within After significant casualties, the Autobots were forced to kill him, which was much easier said than done. The Beast Within Part 2, Consequences
