WOW!!!, Yet another release of these guys.
Does anybody feel that we are drowning in Primal & Megs re-paints, re-issues, anniversary editions, accurate cartoon paint scheme issue, super increased poseability issue, yet another issue, one more issue just for he sake of it re-issue, issues of these guys.

*Gurgle Gurgle.... Gulp*

I haven't bothered with the reissues. I have enough Primals:

Bat
Ape
Transmetal
Optimal
Optimal Titanium
Onyx
Minor
BM
Blast Fist
Air Attack
Happy Meal toy
10th Anniversary
10th Anniversery Brown
And a similar listing of Megatrons.
I had Robotmasters but gave it to a friend of mine. Though I am looking for Primal Prime... :-?

And PP Titaniumwhen it comes out.
Oh, and as for your sig comment, Cheetron, there is one version of OpOp from the show that had no Beast Mode. At the very end of Beast Machines, Megatron rebuilds the OpOp body for himself only minus "that disgusting beast mode." Kinda made me happy when I realized that there is a logical explaination to the Tit not having one.

Ahem, wouldn't the reborn editions be a better and "Show Accurate" depiction already?? The original releases have issues don't they?

So, accurate show versions, of the crappiest versions of the toys?

Pass?

Why would anyone want that when they released those beautiful BWR box sets over a year ago?

If this keeps up, Primal & Megswill have more re-issues than any other TF character! As if I didn't have enough already........but really, a faceplate for Primal? The first release was enough...............

I have the Takara BWR set, I don't need another.

I'm actually still waiting for the last TRU special two-pack to go on sale so I can finally own these guys. Maybe another version will make them FINALLY go on sale...

I'm a sucker for these molds, but I'm not plunking down cash until I see much clearer pictures.

I can practically hear all my Primals and Megatrons chanting "join us... join us...".

How many versions of these do we honestly need? Eh, pass.

News Credits: 5 · by **Overcracker** » Tue Jul 10, 2007 4:37 pm

I have a question:

How many & which ones of the many re-leases of Beastwars Megatron, have a left Fist, not just the tail piece.

And which ones if any have a right fist inside the T-Rex head?

They look nice but I have to start asking how many times do I need these same figures?

If you don't have then though, I realy recomend them!

I have to agree here. The new paint jobs do look very nice but the BWR set is so good, I really don't see the point of these. Hopefully this is ramping up to more BW reissues.
