G1 is everywhere in Transformers.  Now they're proposing a 'filler line' that will basically be yet ANOTHER G1esque adventure.  Starscream an F-15?  Megatron a GUN!?  WHAT!?

 

NO, the best news is all about Beast Wars and its 10th Anniversary.  The packaging is sharp (although very Cybertron-ish), the figures have more accurate paint schemes, and we're getting BRAND NEW figures in terms of Transmutate, Optimus Primal, AND Megatron.

 

Anyone with me on this?

I'm with ya my brother!

I agrre that it's nice to have new improved versions of our favorite beasties and those news about the new series, we still have to wait to see what will happen. I hope we can see the return of the original megatron.

the tf fandom is not a collective organism, it is as bitterly divided as the UN. while BW 10th is good for the BW fandom, the filler line is good for the G1 fandom.

And the Commemorative Series Line wasn't?  What about Alternators?  Or Armada? Energon?  And now Cybertron?  Were they not good enough for the G1 fandom?

 

Seriously, the G1 rubes have got their glory, it's time to move on to something else.

PREACH ON, BROTHER EMPEROR MEGATRON!

The greatest news was not the BW 10th, the best news was that Hasbro effectively will have something for everyone in 2006. Which for people like me that means I'm going to need 3 jobs.

Move on...

 

to a 10 year old line comprised mostly of repaints. [/sarcasm]

 

:tflaugh

although i agree, i also know where the G1 fanboys are coming from. of all the tf series, G1 had the worst toyline. the tf's were unposable bricks and only rarely were they show accurate. the G1ers probably won't be satisfied until they finally get a toyline that does the G1 cartoon justice, ie, G1 cartoon-accurate toys made with modern engineering.
