    I was living in Japan when Beast Wars came out, so I didn't notice which toys we missed here. Although Japan didn't get some figures like Razorbeast (so I had to hunt them down later), but we did get some cool stuff like Shadow Panther and the Volcano playset.

    The funny thing was that Australia got the European packaging with the early BW toys, which a lot of people didn't like - primarily because their tech specs sucked... but for me they were kind of a novelty since I was more used to the American and Japanese packaging. The first BW Transformer I bought in Australia was Inferno; and I really liked his European box. But then one day my dad tried to throw it out. I retrieved it from the recycling bin, but then later on when I was out he chucked it out again, and by time I got him it had been collected by the garbage truck! NAAWWWWW!!

    Ah well.

    Because she's a Beast Machines toy (or was released with BMesque packaging, anyway.) And she is on this list: http://www.otca.com.au/archive1.html

    I never said i didnt like the japanese ones, from what i've seen (Lio Convoy, Stampy, Break, Longrack, Big Convoy, Moon, Magmatron) they are quite nice, the reason i asked for only hasbro relases is because i wanted just beast wars (not beast wars II or Neo) because that is the series i grew up with and the toys i wish i had when i was growing up (i also mainly wanted to know which beast wars figures were released in Austrlia and which were not and i knew that Ravage was japan only but still part of beast wars so to keep from getting him (and any other japan only figures) on this list i just asked for hasbro relases not takara
    but speaking of which my friend's (who used to live in japan) birthday is comming up and i know he likes lio convoy, anyone know where i can find one online?
