beast wars (american version) is the true squeal/continuation to transformer generation 1 (american version) well that is after adding thousands of years after the ending of the TG1 movie.
@IgorWelkenbach neither are worth it. The live action films tried to give an interesting design Which they did, and maybe in some cases have some realism, but I'll always love G1.
@IgorWelkenbach Thank you for putting into the words my thoughts these past few years, yet never came up with the perfect description. You did me a service.
@jelliena Uh...technically. Not sure if it's THE Starscream considering Beast Wars is riddled with characters with names based on previous characters. Also...why are there vehicle predacons in this anyway? Isn't the whole Beast Wars theme that they all had animal alt-modes? True there were the vehicons(who might as well been just called Decepticons) in Beast Machines but that was after this so it is made moot.
I am completely happy that North America got the Cgi version. An anime woulda been nice if the writers were the same as the NA version of the Wars saga and if the action was more...abrupt, like if the violence was on the same lvl as G.Wing or Escaflowne.
People judge the CGI beast wars too quickly (without watching the entire show of course), yet they'll accept this kid-friendly poor quality anime series instead.
The CG beast wars a serious show and killed off important characters while connecting to the original G1 series. It's also because of the japanese shows which confuses transformers lore in terms of the time after the Pax Cybertronia was signed. I hate this series and Beast Machines for ruining what Beast Wars was really about.
@cannonfodder4000 well the english dub was pretty bad too, although i did like how they implemented sound effects from the american beast wars. Only thing I hated about the original japenese dub is how gay they made starscream -.-
If your talking about the BWII english dub then i do agree, but thats mainly because it was a fan dub by TFcog (I think their still at episode 6) and yeah you're about BWII starscream <=L at least his voice is sorta cool.
@syuku777 You've misunderstood me. I in no way hate on 2D, in fact I often prefer it over 3D animation. In my opinion, many of the anime Transformers are of very poor quality in not just animation but in writing (ie: beast wars II and Neo).
Besides, when they "brought Dinobot back" it wasn't technically him- it was just a robot/cone Megatron built to replicate him. His death wasn't the only great one; Depth Charge's death was very meaningful as his revenge against Rampage became his own demise.
@Luminak Like some of the G1 fans who would later love the Beast Wars-verse,I'm going to reserve my judgments till I can find out and say if this is worse than the Unicron Trilogy.
@Luminak As much as I agree, the writers of the original beast wars were just winging the plot line. They never really watched the original transformers thoroughly and some of the connections were just coincidence.
Anyone know where I can buy Beast Wars II or Beast Wars Neo series? I've also been looking for the "Beast Wars Second: Chô seimeitai Transformer" DVD. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The bunny in this, just helps tell the story. There actually is a Transforming rabbit/robot on the side of the Maximals in Beast wars Neo which aired after Beast Wars II
Both beast wars II and Neo were aimed at kids, so it's not rare that the writing in general is more kid friendly than Beast wars and beast machines, still, both series weren't that bad and have their good moments (In Neo, Unicron appears once again)
Damn, I wish TFcog would get their asses into gear, finish Victory, then finish this. Surely Victory is almost finished. Probably not. But they promised this finished next.
Vangelus as Thrust is awesome, too. However, as much as I liked Beast Wars Second, I absolutely HATE Artemis and Moon - the two single-most stupidest characters ever created.
the animation is great in this, but the story plain out sucks. they should have atleast talked it over with the people who wrote the story line for beast wars and beast machines. yeah, the head people are practically the same for both.
I believe there was a couple more exclusive molds used in this series, but yes most of these were unused Maximal/Predacon figures from the first Beast Wars line and repainted G2 figures. This and Beast Wars Neo was to fill in time in Japan while Mainframe finished Beast Wars seasons 2 and 3 in which the Japanese put together and called it Beast Wars Metals.
@darkqueen01 no mexigojira means than beast wasr ii and BW Neo is better than beast wars and beast machines but i think ist bettes BW ii and beast wars when megatron stole the golden disk and landed on the primitive earth
play asia ebay any where try those websites i tiped in but ebay wont sell it but it i thinkk play asia ran out i forgot of one website but i want them to i think we hould get them since we had the rights the beast wars series first so i think they might come over here to america

lol, you mean killing off important characters to make room for new characters and toys.
the only meaningful death in the entire series was like Dinobot and they still cant keep him dead.
I have seen the whole Beast Wars franchise but honestly, I don't see 2D series being any inferior to CGI series except the fact that they are not CGI
but I do agree with you that Beast Machines was a crap that should never have existed
