Megastorm (BW)
| This article is about the Beast Wars II Predacon. For Megatron (any of them), see Megatron (disambiguation). |
- Megastorm is the Predacon Duke of Destruction during Beast Wars II. He was later upgraded into Gigastorm.
Megastorm is the Predacon Duke of Destruction and baby brother to Galvatron, the Emperor of Destruction. Megastorm is a devious little twerp, always plotting to kill his big bro and take his place as leader of the Predacon rebellion. Galvatron is well aware of this, but looks the otherway purely out of brotherly love.
Megastorm can transform into a tank. He is later upgraded into Gigastorm, a giant mechanical ceratosaurus (or possibly Hojoni), which gave him a base mode and a battle station mode. The upgrade included an enlarged title as Arch-Duke of Destruction.

Toys
Beast Wars II
- Megastorm (Predacon, 1998)
- Japanese ID number: D-12
- A redeco of the first Generation 2 Megatron toy (which had not been released in Japan previously), Megastorm transforms into a large combat tank. In both modes, his main cannon stocks up to six missiles, and gravity slides the next missile into place when one is fired. Megastorm lacks the electronics present in the Generaton 2 toy, however.
- Gigastorm (Predacon, 1998)
- Japanese ID number: D-22
- Gigastorm is a partial retool of Trypticon, mainly giving him a new dino-mode nose-horn. He transforms from a t-rex-thing to a base-form-thing. Gigastorm lacks most of Trypticon's accessories, only coming with Gigascouter, a redeco of Full-Tilt.
