I still love all the Beast Wars stuff, I really need to get my hands back on it all. They really are an amazing line.Originally Posted by GoktimusPrime
I think it says a lot when 15 year old Beast Wars toys are still outclassing current day TF Prime Beast Hunters toys.Makes you appreciate just how Beast Wars saved Transformers... after years of weakening G1 and G2 failing to boost the franchise, along came Beast Wars with these amazing figures that blew our socks off and gave us the 'Transformers Renaissance.'
As fans, we're often dreaming about G1 toys getting the Classicsverse treatment so we can have G1 toys with modern day engineering, but there isn't quite the same call from BW fans because IMO BW toys haven't become as 'dated' as G1 has. We are having new BW toys coming out in Generations for next year, but for the most parts the improvements are relatively minor; mostly cosmetic changes to make them look more like the show models. But the BW toys are still, for the most part, inherently just as good today as they were then.
As for today though, added some more vehicons to my collection and weaponizer prime has a couple of new buddies. I'm spewing the giant prime beast hunter thing, has such a crappy fluro red color to him. Would of looked so much better if they kept the red color from his non-beast hunter prime voyager.
[EDIT]: I absolutely love Weaponizer Bee. His posture, design, stance, face, all look amazing. He just has some weird hands, but facing them on his hips makes him so clean and tv show looking. Love him, first Bee toy I've liked from Prime.
