I admit this is a bit of an unusual request since, while it does involve the merging of similar threads, it also involves moving certain posts from one thread to the new merged thread. A recent off-topic discussion that derailed the Legacy thread (which I apologize for starting, btw) has led me...

Not exactly what I meant, but hey, you do you and go have fun with your new Armada thread. I'll go do what I was gonna do and see and about getting us a main Beast Era thread.

Here's something unexpected. Similar to how Beast Wars Again has rebroadcast certain episodes of the Japanese dub of Beast Wars (albeit, cut in half to make two 15-minute episodes each), TakaraTomy has gone and uploaded the Japanese dub of first three episodes of the G1 cartoon, the three-part...

I wish that mold could pass for a Transmetal, but all that fur all over its back sure makes its beast mode look a lot more like an organic feline instead of a mechanical one. Also really miss the fold out jet boosters.

Must have been the behind-the-scenes episode that all the reruns keep skipping on purpose, and which can only be watched on the DVD release.

Both RobotKingdom and Action Robo have the two at discounted prices, but their shipping costs are higher than most since they're in Hong Kong. But sometimes it still works out. When I bought my MP Optimus Primal, I got it from RobotKingdom since it turned at that even with their shipped costs...

Sure thing. I'd love to continue this Beast Era talk, but it deserves its own thread. Lucky Australia.

Funny thing, it actually did go to theaters... In Germany.

They're also inexplicably labeled as part of the Masterpiece line for some reason.

Sure, but you watched both, so you had the prior context of G1 to be able to connect the "Great War" mention in BW Episode 1 to G1, like the rest of the established fandom at the time did. But in my case, I started with Beast Wars as a kid, and had zero prior familiarity with any of G1 or G2 at...

I'm always a sucker for the Fierce Deity look.

Aye aye!

The Autobots and Decepticons didn't even factor into the world of the Beast Wars cartoon at all until the fans came up with the idea of the "Great War" mentioned in Episode 1 referring to the Autobot/Decepticon war of G1. As mentioned, Bob Forward originally just threw in those two words to say...

Besides, we all know BW Megatron is really a disguised G1 Shockwave anyway. Purple, blaster arm, hyper calculating, thinks he's better than G1 Megatron, etc. 😜

I guess what all of this really boils down to is the original absurdity of the G1 comics and cartoon making the Autobots and Decepticons able to live for millions of years in the first place. The whole reason the Ark was stated to crash-land on Earth "four million years ago" was to allow the...

With the writer/actor guest announcements finished, now begin the artist announcements. For those unaware, it is via Candice's YouTube channel that Garry Chalk performs all of his Christmas greetings videos and other "Primal Parodies" videos every year.

A movie about a dinosaur who's a cop? 😜

Yeah, it's been confirmed that these chain and axe accessories are indeed intended for Battletrap and Optimus Prime, respectively, essentially making this Optimus Primal toy a stealth accessory pack release.

Tarantulas being a literal "Unicron spawn", too. Full disclaimer: I actually don't mind him being a Unicron minion during the 2003 Universe fiction since every bad guy in that fiction was (and it'd suit his personality that he'd join up with what he'd consider the winning side and use that to...
