The Seacons are scurvy Predacon space pirates in the Beast Wars II portion of the Beast Era continuity they is!
SWIM AWAY, SWIM AWAY!
The Space Pirate Seacons scour the spaceways for treasure and power. Though they are Predacon by creation, they hold no true affiliation with Galvatron and his crew. Led by Halfshell, they prove themselves troublesome for Maximal and Predacon alike!
God Neptune is the name of their combined form, a mighty sea-warrior who brandishes the powerful "Neptune Sword". This mode has great strength --equal to that of even Galvatron-- and is almost unstoppable in the sea... but the combination is partcularly stressful on the members who end up forming the legs of the super robot, leading to arguments and breaks in the team's mental coordination that can really cripple God Neptune at bad times.
The team consists of...

The bio for Transmetal 2 Cybershark mentions that he "honed his skills while bounty hunting a rogue band of Cybertronian space pirates."

Toys
Beast Wars II
- God Neptune (Multi-pack, 1998)
- Japanese ID number: D-21
- Sold only as a boxed set of five toys, God Neptune is a redeco of most of the Generation 1 Seacon team; not only does the set not include a redeco of Nautilator, but the weapons and gun-mode stands for the individuals are also not included. Since the set uses the Scramble City style of contruction, the body and limbs are interchangable with similar-build cobiner teams.
- 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.
- (The complete set of Generation 1 Seacon molds (all six members with all accessories) were slated to be released as an exclusive set during Energon as Piranhaking, but as of now remains unreleased.)
