Beavop (ビーバップ Bībappu) is one of the many Beastformers who joined White Leo's resistance forces as Galvatron's Decepticons began to conquer the formerly-peaceful planet Beast with their army of cold-blooded insurgents. His role in the Autobot-allied Beastformer forces is amphibious scout. He holds the rank of Emperor of Arxan, under King Power Jaguar, and was born in the Arxan River.

Toys

Transformers: Beastformers

• Beavop (Beastformer, 1987)
  • Beast ID number: 44
  • Accessories: Saw-blade

Part of the second series of Takara's Beastformers toys, Beavopis a yellow anthropomorphic beaver in brown robotic armor. The rubsign on his chest reveals one of three symbols; Fire, Water or Wood.

He came in a green-grid generic "Cybertron 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.

Beastformers

• Beavop (Beastformer, 1988)
  • Beast ID number: 44
  • Accessories: "Saw Beat" MVP Weapon

Re-released in the Transformers-less Beastformers sequel series, Beavop 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 "Saw Beat" (ソービート Sō Bīto).

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 Beavop 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.)
