I must fail them for not including Waspinator.

In the beginning came the beasts, and all that creeps and crawls and flies. But nature lies, they're ROBOTS IN DISGUISE!

Ummmm...is this somehow the result of that poll they did a few weeks back? Were votes for obscure G1 characters so spread out that the core Beast Warriors cleaned up, just like in 3 out of 4 Botcon Hall of Fames?

I've just started playing this again after a period of inactivity... Must admit, Beast Wars characters has me intrigued. I wonder if that opens the possibility for other continuities to enter this game? Anyone interested can add me - level 237, 2365 battle victories... Input code 58721979.

Is it just me, or does Rattrap look different from his original toy...?

Gee, everyone's on a killing spree.

I noticed that too, but there are subtle differences. Most notably, there are wheels on his shoulder where his mouse-head halves are supposed to be. None of his toys/animation models have had wheels there. On top of that, that spine on his rat mode is something to look at too.

Yeah, it's like a mix between his two BW bodies but with new stuff thrown in.

But in all seriousness, I was actually thinking that they may be drawing inspiration from a as-of-yet concept of that Generations Rattrap toy that is more than likely true.

This almost makes me wish I had a smart phone. I'm glad to see yet another sign that we are possibly on the verge of a serious Beast Wars revival.

Damn it, why did it have to be Beast Wars? I LOVE BEAST WARS! And I'll never get a full set of the cards from this event because I'm not willing to pay $300 or more for the top cards. I don't even care about their stats, I just want the cards themselves. Oh well, I'll push for a T2 finish.

Also, it seems I used my extra Elita One from last month as upgrade fodder. Now I hope they change the login bonus next month so I don't forever regret not being able to have five full E1s after four months.

Anyone else notice that Dinobot is apparently aligned with the Predacons for this? He's attacking Autobots in his beast mode art.

You have to remember, though; Dinobot was briefly a Predacon during the outset of the original show.

Not really digging the card art, but it's very interesting to see BW guys slaughtering G1 looking generics. So is part of the premise here that the Beast Wars happen in a G1 "present" on some alien world, and search parties hunting for the Axalon and Darksyde get overwhelmed by their crews, who've gone feral? I almost feel like this is set in the original BW microcontinuity, implied by the mini-comic, early bios, and jigsaw puzzles.

Did any of the previous campaigns' cards feature redshirt disposal on this scale?

I know. Just pointing it out.

I've never felt Legends events to be very concerned with continuity. The story scraps they throw together have pretty much no bearing on gameplay.
