I bought a second-hand one (Hasbro version I believe) a decade ago and never experienced any tolerance issues. Chrome was already scratched off but it all held together amazingly well.

For those of us who can remember back that far, there used to be an official Beast Wars website: Beastwars.com

On said site, there was a gif of the Beast Wars eye, that would sort of blink. Now, I've scoured the net for a copy of it, but thus far I've been unsuccessful. I was wondering if anyone had a copy of it?

Try Ben at BWTF.com... he was all things Beast Wars at the time, and is close to Hasbro, so might have archived that sort of thing on a computer somewhere.

Does anyone know where i can get acrylic cases for the Universe Cyclonus figure MoSC from?
I've looked on eBay & Google, but there was nothing that i found helpful. Has anyone had custom cases made & what sort of $$$ are we looking at?

That is indeed it :D That's the only size of it I could find as well. It used to be about 8 times bigger. I'm not giving up hope it still exists.

I'm considering getting the Protectobot Evac Squad set and plan to use the 'Hot Spot' as my Classics Hosehead. I'm stumped on Blades though. What's a good repurposed Classics character (or any other series would be good) to use Blades for?

I suspect the colour scheme is 'supposed' to make him 'Classics' Fly-Up (Guard City Blades). He would also make a good 'Classics' Cop-Tur to go with Fracture, or at a push he could be 'Classics' Highbrow or Windmill.
