'''Green Chameles''' (グリーンカメレス ''Gurīn Kameresu'') is one of the many Beastformers who joined the insurgent army under [[Alligatron]] raised by [[Galvatron (G1)|Galvatron]] in order to aid his [[Decepticon]]s in conquering the formerly-peaceful planet [[Beast (planet)|Beast]]. His role in the Decepticon-allied Beastformer forces is camouflage attack soldier. Greenchameles holds the rank of Emperor of [[Onomis]], under King [[Iguanamonss]].
 
What he lacks in physical strength, '''Green Chameles''' (グリーンカメレス ''Gurīn Kameresu'') more than makes up for in ambition and inventiveness. With the ability to change his colors to match his surroundings, as well as create mirages with his electromagnetic Magneleon (マグネレオン ''Magunereon'') weapon, he lies in wait to attack unaware opponents, aiming to strike the first and only blow in a fight. A beast of utterly evil intent, he is a firm believer in [[Alligatron]]'s quest to rule [[Beast (planet)|planet Beast]], and does all he can to make that goal a reality, always pushing himself to improve his skills, to learn more, to go beyond his boundaries, to more quickly adapt to new situations.
 
Following the war, he returned to his home island of [[Uorī|Onomis]] to rule as its Emperor, serving under the considerably less-ambitious King [[Iguanamonss]]. The igunana's reluctance to try anything outside his comfort zone might seem at first to be sore point for Chameles, but it is in fact the opposite: it gives him another opportunity to hone his own skills, this time  as a strategist and planner, working around his superior's hesitance and providing plans that make the reluctant ruler more proactive and effective.

Fiction

Beastformers pack-in material

At some point in the great war, Green Chameles entered the Holography Mirror, intent on killing Platinum Tiger, who had been trapped within it but was still helping White Leo through the device.

Legends comic

In 2038, the then-peaceful Beast was invaded by Galvatron II's Decepticons. Green Chameles was part of the joint Beastformer-Laser Beast alliance that fought against the invaders. He worked alongside Grotusque and Doublecross at one point. The Road to Legends' Revival Chapter 3

Toys

Beastformers

  • Green Chameles (Beastformer, 1987)
    • Beast ID number: 34
    • Accessories: Claw-blade
Part of the second series of Takara's Beastformers toys, Green Chameles is an anthopomorphic chameleon in blue robotic armor. The rubsign on his chest reveals one of three symbols; Fire, Water or Wood.
He came in a green-grid generic "Destron Beastformer" box, with a bio card with a painted character image on a jungle backdrop. Re-released in Series 3, the box was unchanged, but the bio card replaced the painted image with a simpler line-art image, first used in Hasbro's Battle Beasts cast poster. In both Series, depending on the "Pack" he came in, there was a chance of his bio card being replaced with a rare "Secret Photo", "Bewitching Serpent Seal", or "VS Holography Mirror" card (which he appears on).

Beastformers

  • Green Chameles (Beastformer, 1988)
    • Beast ID number: 34
    • Accessories: "Magneleon" MVP Weapon
Re-released in the Transformers-less Beastformers sequel series, Green Chameles was given a straight re-release with new packaging and a new, more filled-out bio card with corrected coloring. This new card also gave his weapon, now branded an "MVP Weapon", the name "Magneleon".
The initial early releases of this series had the chance for any Beastformer to have the rare Burstsun symbol; we'll probably never know if Green Chameles was ever actually one of them. Later in the run, the "mood ring" styled rubsigns were replaced with new rubsigns that revealed full-color Fire/Wood/Water images on black backdrops. (These rubsign variants also happened at the same time in the Hasbro Battle Beast version of the line.)


  • Green Chameles (Gashapon/candy-toy Beastformer, 1988)
    • Meiji ID number: 36
    • Accessories: ??? weapon
A small, super-deformed, articulation-free version of Green Chameles was seemingly intended to be sold as part of the Takara/Meiji candy toy assortment. A bio/data card matching the released candy-toy cards, with its own role-playing rules and using the Transformers-era painted character art, was released in packs of cards with candy, but the actual toy ultimately never saw release.

Notes

  • Chameles's 1987 checklist-poster art shows him carrying an unidentifiable gold weapon-thing that is completely not his nominal twin-blade weapon, plus it shows him with an odd two-digit claw instead of a "normal" left hand. His 1988 art corrects both of these mistakes.
  • His 1988 bio card gives him the nickname "Leon" (レオン Reon), as in chameleon, get it?

Foreign names
