    Ok so I decided to split away from BW on the terms of this poll. I personally see BW as a whole (excluding BM), including takara, since they recoloured alot of the moulds. So im also including the show in my choice hehe. The reason i chose Tk-BW is because I honestly think the colours are much better and I love how they went into a different direction by choosing more realistic beast modes rather than supporting transmetals (or should I say transmetals 2?). Perhaps my liking of animals makes me biased. However, I did grow up with with g1 and the Love the characters (woot classics!) and appreciate the foundation it represents and realism in the toys, but honestly, I knew they were bricks even when I was younger. Balls joints are the best (imo) thing to ever happen to tf's. RID/CR, Galaxy force/CYB and classics are the next best line(s) to me.

    King Atlas: Umm... you do know that Beast Wars II and Beast Wars Neo are in the same continuity as Beast Wars (Canadian) right?
    i.e.: it's not just your opinion, it's a canonical fact. They're meant to be an expansion/extension of the Canadian BW series just like how the UK comics were an expansion on the US comics and how IDW are expanding the movie universe with stuff like Saga of the AllSpark, Reign of Starscream, the prequel etc. Watch the Beast Wars movie - it establishes the Japanese and Canadian series as being in the same universe. Simon Furman also made further links between the Anglophone and Japanese BW series in the IDW Beast Wars comics and profile books.

    Yeah I knew that, but I thought some people might not have seen it that way (Perhaps the reason it is seperated in this poll, plus some people dont know much about the takara BW "era"). I downloaded the movie, but it was only half and the other part was not available so I didn't get to see Burning Beast Convoy and Flash Lio Convoy. Might get it later if it is easy to find (or should I say seeded well). Henshin!!

    I grew up watching Takara's Headmasters through to Victory (and recently saw Zone) - so it's that for me - Ahh - nostalgia (So I obviously snapped up the DVDs madman put out when they appeared )
