First I just wasn’t to say that Alien loves Predator had me literally laughing so hard I cried. Thank you.
I now also have added to my stupid long list a BW fuzor character that resembles an alien queen – maybe ceratosaur beetle combo (possibly anatomically correct female as if I could ever swing that). This place is doing for my imagination what every DnD Monster Manual and Players Handbook (damn you 4th ed), Dragon magazine, Races of Faerun and various other source books have been doing for years.
Anyone else wish their imagination would just stop?

... I'm pretty sure the answer to the anatomically correct business is implied, if not explicitly stated, by our "No penis" rule. Considering we've never even needed to enforce that rule (it was created largely as an in-joke), I'd really rather not have to deal with not only enforcing it, but expanding and clarifying it.
Not that I want to know why you're anticipating any scene where whether or not a beetle is anatomically correct is even relevant.

"Female", I was thinking eggs, dry walled avian style, rather than any adult scenes. I do realise I would have to be here years before I prove myself capable of handling any plot involving eggs and baby preds if I ever chose to. But yeah, just another idea in a long line of ideas.

First, note that I am not posting with my admin account. This is purely a personal opinion here.
But seriously, dude, if you want to play Transformers, play freaking Transformers. Stop trying to shoehorn other games/series/whathaveyou into a transforming robot form. I'm also pretty sure that eggs aren't going to happen for anyone no matter how long they've been a player. Because it's frankly rather ridiculous.

Thank you for being blunt and honest, I appreciate it. I wish more people were as forthright as you.

Just from my perspective, not anything official, I think, for a xenomorph-styled Beast Wars character, I'd rather see a character who was on an exploration mission like Botanica's, who just happened to run into the Planet Of The Xenomorphs and just happened to scan a xenomorph alternate mode. I would prefer that over a Fuzor. The thing about that kind of character, though, is that character would have had nothing to do with the main Beast Wars and would have missed most of Beast Machines, too. So, Cheetor, Rattrap, Dinobot - never heard of those guys, and so on. So you'd probably have an option of either vanilla Beast Warrior or technorganic, if the character went back to Cybertron when everyone else did and was reformatted like everyone else.
Again, just from my perspective, I don't want to see eggs. I know hatchlings show up in Bayverse, but the IDW Bayverse comics make it a bit clearer that there are hatchery factories that make them. Transformers don't lay eggs, and they particularly don't lay eggs in Beast Wars. We're told about the two factories, the Matrix and the Pit, which make new protoforms.
I would much sooner allow, say, "Perceptor and two other really smart people decide to scratchbuild a lasercore, which creates a more-or-less adult Transformer mind that has one major flaw of some kind," if someone wanted to apply for a character created in game.
