Youtube removed part 2...someone complained or something... sorry...

[WanderLink]

Beast Wars was one of my favorite shows when I was a kid. I really regret giving away my Beast Wars toys. Dinobot was my favorite.

[MikePetel]

Thanks for the comment! Yup I still have all of my Beast Wars Toys, close to 100 of them! Only missing the original Air Razer!

One thing I never understood about "Beast Wars": Why did the decendents of the Autobots and Decepticons begin calling themselves Maximals and Predacons within the 300 years after the great war? Because the series made it clear that both races were no longer called Autobots or Decepticons.

[MikePetel]

They mentioned during the first season that sometime after the Great War (G1) All transformers went through "the Great Upgrade"

in which they shrank in size, became more advanced (Internal computers they talk with) and Changed their faction names. They did this to mark a shift in their history and new adoption of organic technology, though many Transformers still remained vehicle based (On Cybertron).

great review i think you just explained the whole two series for me thanks, oh ya one more thing do you think the old 80s transformers movie is better than the two new ones i do

[MikePetel]

Thanks for the comment! I covered a lot in these 2 parts...maybe too much in a short time span and I still missed things...which I might cover in my Beast Machines review that's coming up. About the old Transformers movie versus the new ones...that's a tough one. I grew up with Beast Wars and I felt the rock music in the original Transformers Movie was quite odd and out of place. I feel the 2007 movie was the best one so far because it felt the most G1, plus the 1985 one killed off my favorites!

BWAHAHA

I love the pictures that went along with your words

xD

And I LOVE LOVE LOVE beast wars too! <33

[xXNHMXx]

ya but the old one got balls for killing off the characters, the only kind of carnage i saw in transformers saga was in the armada series where megatron stabbed ironhids right through him and metal and sparks went everywhere and im like holy shit! then i saw the old transformers movie and when i saw people die in that i nearly shit my pants. i also like the new movies but the old one just does it justice

[flameheat1000]

@MikePetel ikk you posted that 2 years ago but i have one question are you excited for fall of cybertron and im looking for a transformers show i watched it was when the transformers were on earth but used these tiny bots made them stronger

[Revkor]

@MikePetel then redo part 2

[monster4128]

I agree man a very well done review! i agree with alot of these other comments beastwars was definitely what got me into transformers. Redo it or do another second part it is and always will be my fav trans era!! one more thing the best and most evil megatron ever!! my fav character esp towards the end.

[murdamike110ohc]

@MikePetel so put it bacc up

[Ostnizdasht206]

I grew up during the 90's so I never saw the G! transformers show, but I have to say, I like the idea of robots turning into animals better than cars. That's just me though.

[morath11]

So glad I have Beast Wars and Beast Machines on DVD

[Kosyghin]

4:22 a Blankarachnia?

[thecvideospiczo]

[MEGAXSTU]

3:46 Optimus has seen better days.

[addis504]

@MikePetel To bad pretty nice review a well defined recap on the history of transformers at least the first part I saw. Beast war was what got me into transformers. I would love to see the second part do you have it posted some where else?
