Beast (planet)
- Beest is a planet in the Generation 1 continuity family.
Beest is a distant planet inhabited by a race of anthropomorphic animals known as the Battle Beasts. Beest used to be a relatively peaceful planet, with dissenters few and generally quiet about their dissatisfaction with the planet's then-rulers, until the Transformers came to stir things up, with each faction joining with their appropriate Battle Beast counterparts.
(Note: The only official English interpretation of the planet's name appeared in the Dreamwave Summer Special, where it was referred to as "Planet Beest". Previously, the planet was simply spelled "Planet Beast" in most English episode guides written by fans, as no English version of the name was ever officially released.)
