Beast Wars II (toyline)

Japanese Generation 1 continuity « Beast Wars II » Toyline Cartoon Comic Guidebook Commercials BW Special short Arcade game Board game Stage show Sausage

The Japan-exclusive Beast Wars II toyline took and redecoed or retooled already-existing molds from previous toy lines, such as Beast Wars, Generation 2, and even Generation 1. Only three characters received new toy molds: Moon, Lio Convoy and Galvatron.

Beast Wars II wasn't actually its own toyline per se—the toys related to the Beast Wars II fiction were all released under the regular Beast Wars banner.
