Now there's an idea for a story, primal, lio & big convoy in a team up story, we've had the first two team up but as far as I'm aware, not all three...you know what let's throw convoybat in there as well
ZeroWolf wrote:Yes the mini comic would have led to an interesting series as well but I think we did get the better one (and hey, prime and megs did appear in beast wars still)

I've given this some thought, upon viewing a similar comment in another thread regarding the Takara series.
Why does it matter to acknowledge the Japanese only series?
The comment I refer to, in one of the List threads, a comment was made that the Takara series don't count as G1. Several people staunchly disagreed. Yet from a certain point of view, the original comment is correct.

. Did you see anybody claimed it was around the same time at Sunbow?AllNewSuperRobot wrote:Certainly a lot of ignorance being batted around. For one thing, The Takara Series was never shown in the UK around the time of Sunbow. I live here, I know it first hand.
Yeah I lunped the uk into the same sentence that I mention the other two markets where it aired that was my mistakeWe had Sunbow then that "G2" repeat of Sunbow and then nothing until Beast Wars in 1996. Coupled that with the fact that when The Takara Series was released on DVD in 2005, it came with a little text description on the case that said "never before seen in the UK". So there's that too.
No not my intent at all I apologize if that’s how it came offI'm sure the point of that little rant wasn't supposed to be as condescending as it came out, I'll ignore the majority I deemed too patronising to invite discussion just the same.
Canon does come down to the individual also.
I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make theirTake two fans. One only watched the cartoons and only collected the toys from the show, oblivious to anything outside that. The other watched the cartoons, read all the comics and collected all the toys. Both say their experience is 'G1'. Both are correct.
Also The Cartoons, Story Books, Comics etc were there solely to sell The Toys. THE END. All the ideas of multiple continuities etc were applied retroactively, not a planned design by any means.
I agree but I’m not sure why you brought that upToo many people in this day and age base their knowledge on worthless wiki's and such.
Well saidWe may live in the 'information age' that doesn't mean said knowledge is always applicable. Knowledge is power and without first-hand experience, has no real power at all.

I believe what he means, and he’s free to correct me if I’m wrong, is that he and others don’t feel that those shows qualify as G1 because they weren’t aware of the Existence of no-shows at the time that they were originally being shown in other parts of the worldZeroWolf wrote:I'm actually a bit confused now as to what the original point was that you were trying to make by saying takara (headmasters/masterforce/victory) wasn't g1

So let's get back on track. Seeing as this thread is all about missed opportunities within Beast Wars. I've already expressed that other than Depth Charge, most of Season 3 could be given that title. So let's talk about the Big One, shall we?

@sabrblade basically allnewsuperrobot asks questions about beast wars and wants opinions about the answers and why we think that way. As you can see his first one was about seeing more of what could have been with the agenda episodes
