Why wasn't Dinobots like Dinotron and others didn't appear on the cartoon? Dinotron came from Dinobot dna like his other clones but I don't remember who split it Megatron or Primal? Maybe someone here knows? Maybe there is a reason they didn't because they might like Cheetor taking in charge or Night creeper rebelling against Primal like the real Dinobot would have thought dishonor to do so. Any thought for reason why they didn't have them in the series?

BecAUSE the Dinobots were a toy-only line.... Just like why loads of the BW toys didnt appear in Beast Wars itself....Just like why loads of repaints dont appear in the actual animation.... It's just to reuse molds...

And it's Nightscream, not Night creeper...

Then stop reading them maybe? :???:

But yeah, there were a lot of non-show characters in Beast Wars and Beast Machines. Personally I loved it as it cut down on repaints as opposed to the Armada/Energon/Cybertron stories and lines that basically incorporated repaints as simple power-ups for existing characters and left us with very few non-show characters.
