@ Jestermonkey4u and PrimeEra:Friends, as I said earlier, Jeff Davis had stated hell a lot of reasons for not showing the so-called complete Alpha form (Peter's Wolf form). While all of us clearly know that the issue was budget, this was never explained in the plot-wise. 1) As PrimeEra said: Derek stated that the form you take depends on the person you are. This theory is completely disproved by the fact that Kali, despite being an egoistic and power-hungry werewolf, hardly shifts into a monstrous form. Also, except for Jackson's Kanima, no other person's alternate supernatural form matches their character.Ennis was a hulking monster. HE has a selfish, arrogant, bitch, yet his form only looked a tad different from Derek's form... ONly DEUCALION's form reflected his true self, a Demon Wolf, a wolf whose soul has almost gone beyond the point of redemption due to his evil deeds.

For now, let's assume that Alphas never take a full wolf form only becuse they cannot control it. Remember, in Episode 12, Peter Hale seems to kill Kate Argent in a semi-transformed state with claws and teeth. He only shifts into full alpha when Derek and Scott keep attacking him and frustrate him...... Let's also remember Peter's mind state at that time. 1) He had just become an ALpha healing Burns from the Halefire. His mind has not healed completely, and eventhough he looks sane, he is in a trance-like state and semi-insane.

2) Once Peter takes the complete Wolf-form, he is not able to speak or threaten others. He behaves like a proper animal...

Therefore, we can conclude for now, plotwise, that Alphas avoid the full-beast transformation or they cannot transform into a full-beast unless 1) They are filled with uncontrollable rage, or 2) They lose complete control of their human self and give themselves to their wolf side, intentionally or unintentionally thus becoming a wolf-like monster, which can think only a little, but kill others easily.

If you notice an episode in Season 1 carefully, Peter Hale visits Adrian, the Psychotic Professor, and speaks to him even in Alpha form (The only instance of Peter Hale speaking in Full Alpha form). He says to Professor Adrian Harris, "Turn around and look at me Adrian. Look at what I have become" clearly signifying the fact that Peter had no idea that he will transform into such a beast and is angry at Adrian for partially being a cause (Harris gave the idea to Kate for the Halefire resulting in Peter losing his family and getting burnt)

Thus, we can conclude that the beast form is not an actual full Alpha form, but actually the form of a demented Alpha, someone like PEter
