    I don't see your point really. The success and quality of a toyline needn't be dependent on the quality of the TV series - look at Energon and Cybertron.

    Surely as a Beast Wars fan you'd rather have a mediocre television series and an entire toyline than two mediocre toys in a filler line, like we've already had?

    Also, re the Megatron and Prime molds that got redecoed in Cybertron, during the design process there was still uncertainty surrounding the 10th Anniversary line so they made them compatible with Cybertron's key gimmick as well, just in case the worst case scenario came to pass.

    Our opinions of 'success' must differ a lot

    I don't think the BW line would have had the impact it did if the original show was mediocre, would you want the new generation of kids be subjected to a degraded version of BW television series? I know I wouldn't, If they do a new series and do it right then surely the popularity of the series would increase. Increased interest in a series normally means Hasbro will put more effort into (fingers crossed) a more diverse and better designed toy line.

    But that could be said of any Transformers TV series, not just Beast Wars.
