I thought we got that

She's an awesome character, I hope she gets a new toy tooAnd since she does have some kind of backpack in robot mode, she seems a tad more feasable than Terrorsaur.

I meant a screen accurate Ravage. Obviously he couldn't be a small enough cassette to fit into MP or G1 Soundwave, but maybe he could pull off a real life cassette size.Ultra Markus wrote:Rodimus Prime wrote:So no one else wants a Beast Wars Ravage...?![]()
Now that you mentioned it
A beast wars ravage that's not a combiner
That has beast robot and some sort of vehicle or cassette modes

I get no Prowl or Grimlock, but Ravage was an integral part of the end of Beast Wars. He should get a toy. Besides, he is a G1 character directly affecting the event, lives and futures of the next generation of characters, so if there ever was a poster bot for a line called "Generations," he is it. I understand there were other cross-generational characters/events, but Ravage was 1 of the earliest ones and likely 1 of the most impactful as far as story goes.AllNewSuperRobot wrote:However for Generations, in particular a Beast Era-centric line, Personally I think they should just stick to the characters of the era. No Grimlock, Prowl, Ravage etc.

But where do you draw the line? Starscream, albeit indirectly, is integral to Beast Wars. Starscream begat Rampage and he greatly influenced the world around him. So does he get a toy?
Likewise, Optimal Optimus and TM 2 Megatron wouldn't exist without their G1 counterparts, which greatly influences Season 3 and Beast Machines. So do they get toys too?
Starscream wouldn't, because he didn't have a body, just a spark that took over another bot. And both G1 Prime and Megatron, as well as Optimal Optimus and TM2 Megatron, have toys, even though I would like to see a Generations line update of the latter 2, as well as Rampage, even if he did get some love at a recent BotCon. That figure was a repaint though, it wasn't really screen accurate.AllNewSuperRobot wrote:But where do you draw the line? Starscream, albeit indirectly, is integral to Beast Wars.

Here's your second Big Convoy figure, in CHUG style no less, dressing up as a Decepticon and calling himself Big Fight to motivate Blitzwing.
Happy now?![]()

The Legends/Generations one we got 2 years ago might not be perfect, but I really dont think its a bad choice to the point that we should concentrate on another toy of her rather than another character and this pic shows what I was thinking:
Looks the part enough in a generations line.
Plus I remember when there were 4 chan rumours of a Beast Wars subline in Power of the Primes (which turned out false), part of the rumours was that Hasbro would be releasing Takara's Legends Blackarachnia and lots of fans were happy. So to see all this disdain for that same toy now seems odd.
