Under-3

Under-3 is a character in the Beast Wars portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.

He targets young boys.

Under-3 is a Maximal Defense Soldier. His eyes, ears, and nose are very good, presumably because he is a giant head. Information gathering is his primary duty.

That is one creepy altmode he's got.

Japanese name: Lionhead

Toys

Beast Wars

• Under-3 (McDonald's Happy Meal toy, 1996)

Part of the first McDonald's Beast Wars promotion, Under-3 was, well, the toy developed for children less than three years of age. Hence his incredibly simple transformation and lack of small parts in any capacity. He transforms into a disembodied lion head.

Notes

• "Under-3" may seem like an odd name, but the text "Under-3" was printed on the baggy in the same location as the names of other McDonald's toys such as Beetle, Panther, etc.

• Under-3's Japanese name and brief character write-up come from a Japanese Beast Wars guidebook called the Beast Wars Perfect Book.

• Ben Yee specifically points out that he didn't include the "Lion Head Optimus Primal figure" into the Beast Wars Sourcebook. Boo!
