Seacon (BW)
From Transformers Wiki
The name or term "Seacon" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, seeSeacon (disambiguation). |
- The Seacons are scurvy space pirates from theBeast Wars IIportion of theBeast Eracontinuity, they is!
With the Jolly Roger hoisted high and the cannon fuses smoldering, theSpace Pirate Seacons( vũ trụ hải tặc シーコンズUchū Kaizoku Shīkonzu) sail the spaceways in a neverending search for plunder and power. These ferocious freebooters will gladly ally themselves with whomever proves most beneficial to their larcenous ends, be theyPredaconorMaximal.In reality, the Seacons typically end up double-crossingeverybody,leaving them with few friends and alotof enemies.
Their crew consists of:
- Halfshell,the greedy-yet-generous leader.
- Scylla,the lovesick squid of pristine beauty.
- Coelagon,the eldest member and source of senile "wisdom".
- Terrormander,the youthful slacker who's good in a fight but not for much else.
- Sea Phantom,the tough guy who favours surprise attacks.
These scallywags can combine to formGod Neptune,a powerhouse who keeps their rivals at bay (when his limbs aren't deserting him, that is).
Lawbhammerwould've been the sixth member if he didn't walk the plank.

- The set doesnotinclude a redeco ofNautilator,and almost all of the weapons and gun-mode stands for the individuals are also missing.
- For unknown reasons, a great number of unboxed God Neptune sets—lacking all of their accessories, including combiner parts—ended up available on the secondary market. These went for considerably less than the "complete" releases, naturally.

Notes

- Oddly, though they are referred to as such practically everywhere else, the term "Seacon" does not appear on the team's toy packaging.
- The original depiction of the team in 1998 excluded theLobclaw/Nautilatormold. In2020,the digital characterLawbhammerwould be created to fill this gap.
- At some point very early into production, the Space Pirate Seacons were going to use theSuper-God MasterforceSeaconmodels in theBeast Wars IIcartoon. Evidence of this was found in a collection of production materials that featured print-outs of theMasterforceSeacon models (including the unusedrobot modemodels), where theMasterforcenames were crossed out and replaced with the Space Pirate Seacons' names in red pen.[1]For reference, theactualSpace Pirate Seacon models used in the cartoon are supplied to the right.
