i know :/.

the newer releases of beast wars and G1 are pointless.

but i wonder if these seasons will stay in stores like the simpsons seasons which can be found all the time or are they gonna be cancelled within like a year.

and are they re releasing armada, energon, and cybertron? does anyone know?

BEAST WARS <3<3<3<3<3

I would love a re-release of Energon. The only ones on ebay are just too expensive.

yeah i hope they re release those three series

i really only need to complete armada but the first half is really expensive online and even when i saw it in stores.

it would be cool if hasbro makes a new universe line and they release toys from beast wars through cybertron

i need another energon prime <3

Both Exlies and this? Sweet!

Though, I'm waiting for the complete series set. Darn it, when is that gonna come out already?!

The new releases to G1 are superior to the old ones.

As for special features, this set includes:

• Remembering The Spark Featurette: Members of the voice cast reunite to look back on voicing the Maximals and Predacons of Beast Wars
• Original making of Beast Wars
• Art gallery
• Original character models

No word. If they do, I hope those don't include any bonus features, as the previous releases didn't and I don't wanna double dip on the Unicron Trilogy like I am with G1, JG1, and Beast Wars.

no word yet : (((((

Does anyone know if it includes the deleted scene from the last episode? Were Optimus primal returns the spark of the Original Megatron after stopping The Nemesis.or the full animatic? What about any info on the Episode "dark glass " (shattered glass?)whereRattrap tries to restore the memories of Dinobot into Dinobot 2 and failing But better explain his actions one Rampage is defeated.The episode was considered too dark and replaced with "go with the flow".

It was actually the spark of Optimus Prime he took, to save him from being killed by ol' Grapeface.

I'm waiting until November when the whole set is released as one, along with the prequel book.

Unless I'm missing something, those appear to be the only two bonus features that weren't carried over from the Rhino DVDs

What else is there to say of it that isn't already known?

He's talking about a deleted scene, not what happened in the actual show. Remember that BW Megs took G1 Megs' spark for himself too.

Unless you live in Canada. If you do, thanks to the jerks @ Alliance Atlantis, it's to quote Homer Simpson "a day like every other day."

I guess the spoilers were unnecessary... Anyway, for some reason I forgot about that. I just remember G1 Prime's spark. 4 more weeks, and the whole set is out.

Excellent. I was wondering when this would come out.

Had to get mine online, no stores had it in stock. I only saw a few episodes of the second and third season during their original airings, so I'm seeing a lot of these for the first time. I was kind of disinterested back in the day because of the changes to the line-up and the new designs, but so far I'm actually liking these episodes better than the first season. Really like Beetlej...er Quickstrike.

Any word on if Shout Factory is going to put out Beast Machines? I haven't seen a single episode of that but it's reputation is extremely intriguing. I'd blind buy the original release of it, but I'd kind of prefer to have a uniform packaging if Shout Factory is going to release it.

No word, but I kinda hope they don't. nothing against Shout! Factory, but Rhino's release of it was pretty darn good (minus one or two quibbles) and had a fair number of pretty good bonus content (three audio commentaries and four interviews).

It's also out of print, meaning those of us who missed it the first time around would like to have a chance to get it again. And I don't imagine they wouldn't, since they did release Beast Wars.

Of course, it doesn't really matter for me, since whatever rights issues prevent Shout from releasing Beast Wars in Canada most likely also apply to Beast Machines, too.

Bought mine...left it in the car to watch when picking up kids. Pretty cool. I have rhino and still bought this. Megatron trex rules, "YESSS!"
