Why Airazor Never Transformed in Rise of the Beasts

Why Airazor Never Transformed in Rise of the Beasts? After getting a sneak peak at the Maximals in the form of CG renders and toys. The concerns of Beast Wars fans were put to rest. Not only were we gonna see our favorite animal based Transformers make a return. They were actually gonna mirror how they looked in their original show. Or so we thought. After the movie released fans noticed that Airazer didn't transform into her robot mode. Even though Hasbro released a toy for it months before the film hit theaters. Leaving many wondering why she didn't change during her multiple encounters with Scourge. And its because the producers never planned for her to. That's right she never intended to maximize. Apparently her design changed after her merchandise was ready for production. Which is why the beast mode for her toys looks so different from the movie. No robot mode renders have been released either, and the toy designers had to come up with one for the toys.

Not just Airazor. We barely got 30 seconds of the rest of the maximals in robot mode.

Fans like me who grew up in the 90s were dissapointed 😢

They didn't give us all our favorites. They forgot about Rattrap!

[didjargo]

Many of the Beast Wars characters went underused. Cheetor got a total of one line in the entire film, and Rhinox didn't even speak once.

I thought it was because the animators weren't paid enough to animate her robot mode

[baltazarosilva]

I think they should at least release an official Concept Art of her in robot mode, or bring an Air Razor Toy in the Yolopark line like they did with Apelinq.

It would’ve been cool of Scourge forced Airazor to transform and we saw her painfully turning into her robot mode, while Primal dud a smother & cleaner transformation to contrast it.

Not only did we not get my favorite Maximal Dinobot, but they did my second favorite so dirty by killing her and not letting her transform 😭

[TheAmenez]

imagine making a movie called transformers about big alien robots that can transform, and then you make it just a talking bird.

[Allstarjedi]

Not having Rattrap in the film was a crime

[spec]

High IQ moment of these people to not ever think to make a Transformer transform

[shadowblade_sm]

They never showed the maximals robot modes clearly, i wanted to see more screen time of rhinox and cheetor

[Treysor]

Even just for a moment, even if she was controlled by Scourge.

If that had happened, that wouldve been a great precursor to the other Maximals in the final battle.

[Burning-Twilight]

It was such a weird choice to keep her in beast mode, itd be like if any Autobot or Deception characters were kept strictly in their vehicle modes.

Sure everyone loves a cool looking vehicle but we dont want them to stay stuck in that mode forever.

They did the Maximals dirty. The movie call "Rise of the Beast" but they only appear in their robots mode for few seconds. If you blink you'll miss it. Optimus Primal should be the one kill Scrouge instead of Optimus Prime.

Beast wars was my childhood I was so happy to see them on the big screen, I was let down but still was happy to them and the movie was still bad ass, but we need a live action transformers movie with just transformers no humans

[NineHundredDollarydoos]

Imagine making a Transformers movie where one of the most prominent characters never actually transforms.

[kennethsatria]

Maybe a prequel could be made to rectify this, like something set in the past on their planet before Unicron

[TuberoseKisser]

I always imagined that Airazor never transformed cause that's just her character, She barely transformed in Beast Wars, her and Tigertron preferred their beastmodes.

Should've guessed it would be like this when her toy was a recolour of the prior year's airrazor toy from thw WFC kingdom line
