I personally love Beast Wars and Animated better. But all of the installments have their ups and downs. I don't get why the GeeWunners think G1 is so perfect when it has more plot holes and contiuity errors than any other series :/

[destructionsnakepit]

Not to mention the animation errors. Watch the first episode and count the amount of errors. I love G1 but its by no means perfect

[ncstatester]

Great vid bro! There is something for everybody in all of the series of Transformers. I used to be only G1 but I am very glad I expanded to love Beast Wars and Animated too.

[destructionsnakepit]

Yeah when I was a kid I thought Beast Wars was an abomination and believed G1 to be the only cartoon worth watching. Luckily I grew up and broadened my horizons. I eventually want to own Beast Wars on dvd and as I've given up on owning the "Unicron Trilogy" so I'll check them out on here instead

The Transformers was so crap and cheesy that it has 80's written all over it :D

Hope it gets sorted soon mate

[destructionsnakepit]

Thanks mate

You should invest in one eventually man. I'd loveto hear your views on all things Transformers

Good video, I have not much clue about TF's back in the day but I can relate to how you feel about G1 because I see My Little Pony in terms of G1, G2, G3 etc..

[ExaggeratedElegy]

..., now of course, because TFs have such an established and varied fan base, any material that's produced is going to be much more closely scrutinised and criticised; it must effectively do what Beast Wars, Beast Machines and Animated do quite effectively; appeal to both the younger and older fans, which is a tricky thing to balance.

hope this finds you well,

George

Hey Pred, you've said pretty much everything I was going to say in my reply to Kalel :). I particularly agree on the point that the original gen 1 cartoon doesn't stand up qualititively when you watch it now; I think the principal difference is how the status of toy collecting has changed. You have to bear in mind that when TFs originally came out, they were kids toys; not collector's items or anything to that effect, and the same goes for the cartoon; it was made for kids and it did its job...
