I haven't collected transformers in years, but Beast Wars is more than special for me. I have to have them.

Yeah, I'm in the same boat. I just want to get waspinator and rhinox.
Maybe a MP soundwave if I can find one.

They came out the year I was born, so I hold no attetchment to them. I would be gettin Generations Armada Starscream, but I hate it. Why have it come from the series with Minicons and not have his? HotShots Universe version came with a new Jolt, where the hell is Swindle?!

I remember seeing some of Beast Wars when I was little. But I was too busy watching Animorphs to remember much.

Because that means more plastic which is more expensive than it was when Classics Hot Shot came out. Also unlike hot Shot, Starscream actually keeps both of his gimmicks in his Deluxe form.

I can understand that. Ive seen the prices go up at my local stores. But still, the point of all of Armada was the mini-cons, I get Starscream was a popular character and all. But if youre gonna still give him the ports for a mini-con, why not try to include, I wouldve understood making him a bit bigger or putting him in a voyager box for Swindle to be with him.

Finally decided to order a sengoku driver, got it for 6500yen shipped on mandarake. Not too bad.

You need to watch Beast Wars. It is the second greatest Transformers show ever (Animated is the best) as it had great characters with a nice story, especially in its second season. The first season introduced us to the world, gave us a slight backstory as to how BW fits into Transformer history, and then season 2 changes everything and the stakes are raised while Season 3 expanded on that and gave us an end to the war.

It really is one of the best series. Why do you think the "thrilling 30" has at least 3 molds based on Beast Wars?

Cheetor was one of, if not my first Transformer. I wasn't watching the show as often as say Power Rangers but I was aware of it

I have to echo the sentiments here. Being born in '89 Beast Wars is my G1. It was fantastic stuff , very compelling, and far more enjoyable than nearly any Transformers show before or since. Animated is also very excellent. I'll essentially buy any Beast Wars figures they want to make in the future. I even love Beast Machines for the crazy dark tone it had, weird personalities for characters and all. So the upcoming Tankor excites me to no end.
