Much like the movie, the character designd(save BlackArachnia) suck beans.

The story however(in my opinion) is one of the best told in any of the animated series.

Interesting that they used a pseudo-movie style logo for the packaging. I like how they used "Transformers: Beast Machines" rather than the official "Beast Machines - Transformers." That always struck me as being extremely awkward.

Agreed, that is some rather interesting artwork.

I thought this was old news. Anyway, Europe is also getting these discs, but the UK is getting a complete series 1 set and the 2 wolumes have all the first series episodes.

I also noticed the "Their world. A new battle" tagline at the top and the G1-style lettering on the disc name at the bottom, along with the movie-style colouration and overall style... Cashing in on confused buyers much?
