It almost makes me wish Beast wars wasn't a Transformers line, but tis own thing. Maybe then we could have a BW revival running concurrently with the G1 stuff. It sucks seeing other companies doing a bunch of updates of other 90's lines I grew up with, yet BW has gotten maybe 5 figures within the last few years. And its all show based stuff; I was a fa of the toyline more than anything.

>Unfortunately the nostalgiafags of those control things so they're viewed as timeless masterpieces despite being shit.

I feel this so much. It'll happen, it's just like with politics, you gotta wait for the old people to die off.

Sadly not as great as it could've been if it wasn't for Lego.

Shinkis. Frame Arm Girls and Megami Device are both a license to print money and relatively similar and Koto has Starf and Arnval kits that are coming out any month now.

I feel your pain.

But at least we have 2 solid looking Beast Wars characters getting Masterpieces. Plus, there are 2 3rd party Optimal Optimuses coming out...so that's a good start, right?
