Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!
Here we are on the penultimate story of ‘Beast Wars: Transformers’! It’s time to check out the episode ‘Other Victories’ in Season 3 of ‘Beast Wars’. In this episode, we resolve the story arc involving the mysterious aliens that appeared in ‘Chain of Command’, ‘The Trigger’, ‘Other Voices’ and ‘Other Visits’. We also have the return of Tigatron and Airazor, who were captured by the mysterious aliens in ‘Other Visits’. Will Tigatron and Airazor’s return to ‘Beast Wars’ be very satisfying? Will the story arc involving the mysterious aliens be resolved in a very satisfying manner, despite this being a single-episode story and not a two-part story? I first saw ‘Other Victories’ as the first of the last three episodes of Season 3 of ‘Beast Wars’ on Volume 4 of the four official ‘Beast Wars’ VHS releases containing Season 3 episodes that had never been shown before via GMTV in the UK. I’ve also seen ‘Other Victories’ in the ‘Beast Wars’ 15th anniversary DVD box set, and it can now be seen on YouTube. Continue reading

We’re getting close to the end of ‘Beast Wars: Transformers’, everyone! Let’s continue our look into this ‘Transformers’ series by checking out the episode ‘Master Blaster’ in Season 3 of ‘Beast Wars’. In the episode, the Predacons attempt to take control of Optimus Primal’s Optimal body in order to infiltrate the Autobots’ Ark again. Megatron is intent on stealing the spark of the original G1 Megatron, leader of the Decepitcons, so that his powers can be on par with Optimal Optimus’. Will the Maximals thwart Megatron’s attempts to be more powerful or will a couple of his Predacon troops betray him in the process? I first saw ‘Master Blaster’ as the last of three episodes on Volume 3 of the four official VHS releases of ‘Beast Wars’ containing Season 3 episodes that had never been shown before via GMTV in the UK. I’ve also seen ‘Master Blaster’ in the ‘Beast Wars’ 15th anniversary DVD box set, and it can now be seen on YouTube. Will this be an exciting instalment in ‘Beast Wars’ as we draw closer to the series’ conclusion? Continue reading

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!
It’s Easter Monday today, and how fitting that I’m sharing another updated review on a ‘Beast Wars: Transformers’ episode, as I used to enjoy watching ‘Beast Wars’ on GMTV as a kid over the Easter Holidays, Bank Holidays and October half-terms from 1998 to 1999. Today, we’re checking out the episode ‘Go with the Flow’, a Season 3 episode where Rattrap and Depth Charge have to work together to save Una, a proto-human girl, who gets kidnapped by the Predacons to help finish Megatron’s deadly disruptor ray weapon that will be used to destroy the Maximals and their makeshift base whilst protecting the Autobots’ Ark. The first time I saw ‘Go with the Flow’ was on Volume 3 of the four official VHS releases of ‘Beast Wars’ containing Season 3 episodes that had never been shown before via GMTV in the UK. I’ve also seen ‘Go with the Flow’ in the ‘Beast Wars’ 15th anniversary DVD box set, and it can now be seen on YouTube. Can Rattrap and Depth Charge save Una and stop the Predacons at the same time? Or will the Predacons finds themselves unwittingly defeated by an unexpected enemy? Continue reading

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!
We’re back to a single-episode story in Season 3 of ‘Beast Wars: Transformers’, as we’re checking out ‘Proving Grounds’ – a story about Blackarachnia, who leaves the Maximals and is convinced she has no place among them. She also isn’t willing to be reprogrammed to have her Predacon core removed. Blackarachnia also gets stalked by the Transmetal II version of Dinobot, who is the only other Predacon featured in the episode. Megatron and other Predacons like Waspinator, Inferno and Quickstrike don’t appear in this story at all. The first time I saw ‘Proving Grounds’ was on Volume 2 of the four official VHS releases of ‘Beast Wars’ containing Season 3 episodes that had never been shown before via GMTV in the UK. The episode was later released in a ‘Beast Wars’ Volume 2 UK DVD release, which included it and the two-part story ‘Feral Scream’ set before it. I’ve also seen ‘Proving Grounds’ in the ‘Beast Wars’ 15th anniversary DVD box set, and it can now be seen on YouTube. Will Blackarachnia leave the Maximals forever or will Silverbolt persuade her otherwise? Continue reading

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!
It’s time for a two-part story in Season 3 of ‘Beast Wars: Transformers’. Today, we’re checking out ‘Feral Scream’, a story about Cheetor where he gets a new Transmetal II body. We’re also introduced to a Transmetal II version of Dinobot, who was created by Megatron to become part of the Predacon cause. This story has a horror aspect to it, particularly when paying homage to ‘Frankenstein’ and the Werewolf story. The first time I saw ‘Feral Scream’ in its two parts was on Volume 2 of the four official VHS releases of ‘Beast Wars’ featuring Season 3 episodes that had never been shown before via GMTV in the UK. The two-part story was later released in a ‘Beast Wars’ Volume 2 UK DVD release, which included it and ‘Proving Grounds’. It’s funny looking back on that Volume 2 UK DVD release, as I thought it would’ve included more than three episodes compared to the Volume 1 UK DVD release, which had seven episodes on it. I’ve also seen ‘Feral Scream’ in the ‘Beast Wars’ 15th anniversary DVD box set, and it can now be seen on YouTube. Continue reading
