    3:47 I remember as a kid, adjusting to my new life in America, my parents struggled a lot financially as immigrants. They bought me this huge Cheetor for some reason even though they couldn't afford it (maybe they knew I was having a hard time at school adjusting), and it instantly changed my life. It cheered me up and gave me confidence because I had one of the coolest toys at the time. It's amazing what a toy can do to a kid hahaha

    As a kid, I always thought the pink part of Cheetor's gun from Beast Wars was his "brain" gun. As in the reason he acts so stupid or impulsive was because he was missing his brain because they put it in the gun. And he shoots his brain at enemies. But decades later I found out it's supposed the "guts" of the Cheetah beast mode. I like my version better lol.

    You said it best in the video, and it's one of the big reasons I love Cheetor. He has fantastic development throughout his time in the Beast Wars and Beast Machines. Most transformers seem to stick with one note and that's it. So it's always refreshing and compelling to show an "annoying kid bot" evolve and grow into a true leader. Love Cheetor and your videos a tone.

Whenever new ones are introduced older ones "die") & Hasbro wanting certain characters in the series in order to sell more toys?
      I mean that would explain it a bit better, because Tigatron could've always popped up to help the Maximals & return to his seclusion. That really wouldn't have "cramped Cheetor's style" as being "the lil cat". In fact, it would've strengthened his role, because he had a "big cat" to look up to--much like a boy looks up to his "big bro".

    Cheetor's Cyberverse adventures are pretty cool, and he also appeared in the War for Cybertron: Kingdom cartoon.

    Seeing as how Power of the Primes had a Optimus Primal figure, I can't help but feel that they should've made a few more Beast Wars-Machines figures in that toyline. Cheetor being one of them.

    Another absolute banger Chris! I never grew up with Beast Wars, it wrapped a few years before my break into the fandom, but if Generations was to go all out in Beast Was nostalgia I would buy all the toys.

    I’m pretty sure Cheetor is a descendent of Hot rod, like they’re both cocky young autobots, and even Cheetor’s vehicle form looks a lot like Hot rod’s just recoloured 4:50

    I'm honestly shocked at how well some of the animation of Beast Wars holds up. Like, yeah the models and textures are very 90s, and some of the more automated animations (like the transformations and some of the run cycles) are pretty clunky. But for the tech at the time, the facial expressions and character work in the animation is still great.

    thanks to the patron for getting Chris to do this episode.
    Thank you Chris for all the hard work you do.
    I love Cheetor. I have never seen him as a Bumblebee allegory. I've always seem him as Hot rod to Rodimus. I've said for years that cheetor ages well. From Beast Wars to Beast Machines we see the character grow up. Where as Hot Rod / Rodimus didn't really have time to grow up in G1. When Steve Megatron and I got to interview Ian James Corlett in 2010, I kinda gushed all about cheetor.

    "Beast flesh and Transformer metal fused at the cellular level." Pops up a lot in these Basics videos on Beast-Era characters. Like, the same exact wording. I'm not complaining. I just thought it was amusing.
