It's not a difficult task, you take the ones you want to the counter and pay for them then leave. You'd have to be pretty... 'special' to mess that up. :???:

I think the 10th Anniversary BW figures are worth it, esp. since you buy all the ones that have individual parts to make your own Transmutate figure. I already have a complete Transmutate figure and he's really cool looking! :grin:

In all fairness it's a pretty odd question to ask.

Anyway.
Can you aford all of em?
Do you actully like Beast Wars?

If the answer to either of these questions is no, then you made a big mistake you great ninny.

Oh, and for the record, the tansmutate thim is the Hasbro reissues.

of course i like beast wars its in my opinion the last great transformer toyline and cartoon to grace television and toy shelves.

Nah, course not. I asked myself the same question when I bought an MIB Optimus Primal from a comic shop which a friend of mine runs, but all doubts soon disappeared.

think the only mistake may be buying from toywiz.

aren't they notorious for overpricing items?

Did you already pay for them? Have you received them yet? If the answer is Yes, no, then it's a little early to tell.

Personaly, I never got into Beast Wars, so they are not worth it to me. However, everyone has different opinions and somethings mean more or less to others.

I got into Beast Wars when the Hasbro reissues came out. A really good show!

I bought all the Hasbro reissues. I recently bought the Takara version of Waspinator, Cheetor, and Black Arachnia. They have better paint applications. I might get Dinobot, but I like the Hasbro paint better except I wish it had a mouth.

I prefer the larger Primal and Megatron. The latest Takara Megatron and Primal reissues are very small. Primal and Megatron should be larger, which is why I prefer the ones reissued about a year ago (similar to the TRU two pack).

Personally, I wouldn't (and didn't) buy them all - just the figures I wanted to replace.

I have heard bad things about Toywiz. I hope you don't have any problems with them.

I've gotten all the Hasbro BW re-issues & I haven't been diappointed yet. I never got most (nay, hardly any of them) when they were originally released. I was a little taken back when they put out TM Rattrap instead of basic Rattrap, but whatever, I got the Wal-mart Rattrap, & I didn't really like him.

Other than Rattrap, I liked that Tarantulas got a better paint scheme, much like Blackarachnia has gotten for the Takara re-issues. Same goes for Primal & Megatron, althoguh I like the Takara's Megatron face better.

Then of course you have the "re-issues" that aren't really re-issues. That would be the Primal & Megatron that also got Cybertron releases. Those are two of the best figures I've ever had. I absolutely love the Megatron. Primal reminds me of the first TM version, w/the hoverboard & everything.

So, no, you didn't make a mistake in purhcasing the BW 10th figures. They're a lot better than the first wave in the 90's.
