Finally a good BA toy...

Crap! No money this week!

Yay. I'm getting me Beast Convoy and Beast Megatron. Maybe Dinobot and Blackarachnia as well. Has Tigatron been confirmed?

the card reminds me of the D-vices from Digimon... ughh I hope they dont make a transformable D-vice.. that would make me sick to my everything.

Is that the voyager size Convoy and Megatron, Like the first ones released here? If so I might be in.

This is the path to releasing BWII & Neo on DVD hopefully ^^

Trust me you're not missing much (especailly BWII).

Nope, it's the Robot Masters versions with show-accurate decos. In case you don't remember, the Toys 'R Us exclusive 10th Anniversary set was a direct import of the Japanese Beast Wars Reborn set (see the galleries here and here), excluding the DVD. No news on the Cybertron versions being released over there.

I dont suppose the dvds are in english

I have to disagree. While I hate most everything Beast Wars, BWII and Neo were fantastic. Even though I couldn't understand a word being said, I still hold them above the first three seasons released in the States.

How can anyone hate Beast Wars???

BBTS has a pre-order for Tigatron on their website. Fan to Fan mentioned that these toys were wave one, and Takara has several other characters listed on their website. http://www.takaratomy.co.jp/products/beastwars/story.html

Then what are Corahda, Archadis, and Drancron supposed to be?

All Neo. BWII had mostly either repaints, or direct re-releases of earlier toys. Lioconvoy and Galvatron were the only two original molds for the line. Take note they're not all definite.

That was sarcasm, my good fellow. Ninja Sixshot probably did need that info, though.

I'm really curious to see how Drancron will turn out. Probably just minor differences, in the same way Archadis and Corahda were repainted, but can't wait nonetheless. I like the Sky Shadow mold, but love it colored that way even more (and Blendtrons are nearly impossible to find!).
