If you can locate a pink hunky fembot in the Season 3 Five Faces of Darkness series, that's Strika. The screenshot should be in the first few pages of the thread.
If all you want is Machine Wars redone and nothing else added, that would make for a boring set, wouldn't you think? 8 molds, 4 repaints from those molds?
Hunky fembot?

I'm a little confused as to why she's an Autobot...So I guess Strika was a Maximal before her reformation into a Vehicon in Beast Machines, and that's what has influenced the move here?

Even though she's a Vehicon General in Beast Machines, her original allegiance was never made clear. Her primary directive was "The Protection of Cybertron", so she'd default to whoever has the same goal, in this case Autobots. As Megatron was Cybertron in Beast Machines she defaulted to him.
As BM Thrust said to her, if you're loyal to everyone, you're loyal to nobody.

We're talking G1, not Animated. Different universe completely. Ever watched Beast Machines? It's -that- Strika.

That's not his point. He means after watching Animated, he finds it hard to picture Strika as a good guy gal. Kind of like after the movies, I find it hard to picture an Autobot team without Bumblebee. That doesn't merit a "have you ever watched Armada."
In other words, no kidding we're talking G1. His post proves that he couldn't care less.

Seriously - what's all this 'Strika Tank Mode... REVEALED!!!!' nonsense? Like we didn't know that the alt mode was going to look exactly like Warpath, only with different colors?

Mmm. Sarcasm against sarcasm is entertaining indeed.

Right. Beast Machines is part of G1.
Beast Wars' characters are from the future, after the events of G1, and then they get stuck in the past before the events of G1. Did you watch "The Agenda," when they visit the Ark and there's a bunch of references to what happened in G1, like how they'll wake up in 1984.
And Beast Machines is the sequel to Beast Wars. You could make the connection now.

Depends on what you mean by G1. The name originally referred only to the toys produced between 84 and 91 (the "first generation" of figures), and not the fiction. Under that interpretation Strika is definitely not G1.
However, Beast Wars and G1 do exist in the same continuity (*if* you are talking about the Sunbow Cartoon). So, Strika is not a G1 figure, but she does exist in *some* G1 continuities.

I see what you are saying though, your separating them by toyline, like how armada is a separate toyline/story from energon, but both occur in the same continuity.
Strika was in the g1 cartoon briefly though. She was a very...ahem...bulky lass, but more pink.
