Are there any Beast/Beasts that you absolutely can't stand? Judging on playabilty, or your own perception of that particular Beast, or for any reason. I personally can't stand Octillian Octopus, Squirely Squirrel, and Tarsier Tyrant.

How about you guys?

I wouldnt say HATE but definately some of the characters (can i really call them that without their having a true back story? Im going to have to read White Leo's translations again.)
are ...frustrating.
With regard to playability...they are what they are. I look at it as the lack of playability (lets be honest...i dont see to many of us utilizing the symbol rub game aspect) allows me to really enjoy the customizing . Im adding something to the figures instead of them being perfect. I have to admit though...
-
Octillian Octupus - At first glance that figure seems like it has a lot of potential. I dig the upper arms but the tentacles kill it for me. Cool lower legs. If they had given the figure a helmet design (think ancient Rome or Greece) then it would have taken away from that bulbous dome that reduces the cool factor. You combine a big head with no hands and its a "What could have been .." figure for me. Same with the Cuttlefish

Bloodthirsty Bison - Whats up with its right hand? Is it supposed to be a hook? If so why isnt it painted? IS he deformed ?

Wolfgang Walrus - Has no redeeming qulaities what so ever lol.

Dragoon Racoon - First of all Dragoon Racoon looks like a pimp. I like the figure none the less. WHat bothers me is the playability here...why not give the Dragoon Racoon a swivel arm (mid bicep) so that the open palm can actually be used for smackin' hoes? Or perhaps provide him a turntable so that he can DJ Battle Beast parties with that right arm? Like Lazzy Lizard said ..Aint no party like a Battle Beast Party cuz a Battle Beast party dont stop!

Antic Anteater - I look at this figure and think "if your going to give this figure a generic design you could at least give him an ORB for his right hand representing planet BEEST so that he can have dreams of Grandeur like the late Rick James.". It would be different if the right hand was turned sideways but in its current state it looks like he is preparing to throw an underhanded fast pitch at the Freaks and Drag Queen softball tournament.

Bludgeonly Bulldog - COme on man....WTH is up with his upper body. HE looks like he is ready to go to a semi formal event as opposed to battling anyone. On top of that...he is the only BAttle Beast with what looks like Sneaker inspired boots. One of these Beast dont seem to belong...and Bulldog is he.

Zealot Zebra - I have a hate/love relationship with this BB. Why? Because its as if the designers teased us with what could have been a human or robot character in the line but stopped halfway. TEASE.

Ya know I was really lovin your post until i read the part where you rip on my favorite character....Bludgeonly is absolutely PIMPARRIFIC!! Those aint boots man....those are Timberlands bro...absolutely PIMPTASTIC!!

That's cool though...each to their own....anyways, for me....I would have to say Sly Fox...that character just looks like a wuss...with the hairbow and all....I wouldn't be to scared to fight that chick.

Frenzied Flamingo as well...something about pink feathers just isn't all that intimidating.

[Tars Tarkas]

Flamingo looks like he could get beaten up by a slight breeze, but Anteater usually died first in my games, probably due to the fact I had two of him (going after different paints of either Walrus or Jaguar) and his weapon seemed like a four year old designed it

Dont get me wrong...Bulldog is great as everything BUT a BattleBeast. I mean he has a cane ...he cant be all bad. Personally...id love to see a Hoodie on him to go along with the boots.

But...Dude has a suit on man LOL. A suit and Timbalands (ah..my bad..Timberlands. Was thinking of Timbaland the producer for a sec). Could White Leo issue a command of death with a straight face to him?

Frenzied Flamingo...i didnt mention him because he is such an easy target. What exactly is the function of his head gear. THey could have given him a Tin foil cap and it would have looked equally appropriate.

While its on my mind...what is the official back story of FLamingo and Bulldog (what do the cards say about those 2)?

I personally hate Run Amuk Duck. I think both the figure and concept of a duckling Battle Beast are quite stupid.

That's the point....the cane is his P-I-M-P cane. He is like a personal bodyguard to White Leo, he dresses like a PIMP, looks like a PIMP and has the PIMP cane to handle business with. He personally escorts White Leo around Beast Planet.

i always hated the water buffalo guy and the bright green chameleon.

water buffalo looked too happy

and the chameleon just looked boring to me for some reason

[skippy2003]

I don't think there are any beasts I truly hate but if I had to pick one it would be Musky Ox those horns look like a blonde wig!

[pooyabee]

The only one I really don't like is the Deer Stalker. We had this same question last year on the boards and I gave the same response. Only one other person agreed with me. I just think he looks pinheaded with those shades. Alot of people like that figure but I just never have.

Ditto on that one bro. Those shades friggin ugly!!

[Czarcher]

Personally I hate the color scheme they gave the Anteater.C'mon RED fur/skin? WITH that turquiose armor,Looks ridiculous.

[Chogokin Jawa]

Well...Run-Amuck Duck too

[Ghost Lion]

Haaattttteee the Polar Bear. I think he should be much more bulky/powerful looking. Don't care much more the Zebra either.

For the longest time, I thought it was a Possum.

[Ghost Lion]

I thought it was a lamb as a kid.

By all means ...trade me your Zebras lol.

[WarOnTheShore]

Cuttlefish and Triple Threat Snake, for sure.

[instant_karma]

Cuttlefish and Triple Threat Snake, for sure.

i hate some of it....


antelope, he looks so skinny among the rest

colonel bird, why he had the colonel rank? he didn't look strong at all

pig, erm...no comment, i just don't like pig, but i eat pork

more to come...i cant remember the names

[asator]

Bludgeonly Bulldog looks more like a butler to me. His boots look exactly like spats, like Scrooge McDuck or something.


I didnt like Pixelated Pointer. He was just so boring to me. I think Danger Dog was a way cooler representative for the Canis family. Better by far than both P. Pointer and B. Bulldog.
