I had a big collecting epiphany this week- a huge realisation that I need to collect an entire line and it's going to hinder my current collecting goals. And that is to collect Beast Wars. (I blame Kup)
I came back into collecting with interest of the g1 verse- however as much as I watched g2 reruns as a kid (where my love of g1 came from), I fully loved and grew up with the original airing of Beast wars. Revisiting it was always at the back of my mind. While I had some Beast Wars toys, they got thrown out unintentionally along with an entire bag of figs including minty Power Rangers Megazord/Tigerzord.All that remains are 2 BW cardbacks of TM Cheetor and Rattrap.
Anyway, I need some help from the Beast Wars experts here (Hursty I'm lookin at you). I want to collect all season 1 and 2 show characters from BW. Season 1 & 2- I aim for Carded stuff. Boxed figs-mib/misb (maybe). I only have a limited budget so I might make alot of concessions- I'm not that anal about bring fully original- might settle for a cheaper variant- but I definitely want sealed/carded- at least for season 1.
With preliminary searches there are so many variants/ i.e. "fox kids" stuff and different bubble/ 10th anniversary I want to know what the distinctions are? So Ill start off with season 1.
Maximals
Rattrap- Basic
Airrazor-Basic
Cheetor- Deluxe
Dinobot- Deluxe
Rhinox- Deluxe
Tigatron- Deluxe
Optimus Primal- Ultra
Predacons
Terrorsaur-Basic
Waspinator-Deluxe
Tarantulus-Deluxe
Blackarachnia-Deluxe
Scorponok-Mega
Inferno-Mega
Megatron-Ultra
Is this an accurate list of show characters in toy form? Am I missing anything? Can anyone tell me the different variations. Prices if possible? Or can someone point me to somewhere that has info for this?
Will appreciate any help. Sorry for long post!!![]()
