Well, I might keep an eye out for the trade on ComiXology with this one...

I feel like they handled that about as well as they could have in service of the story they're trying to tell, which is their upcoming bout with FTR and potentially bringing "Scapegoat" Jack Perry into the Elite. It was pretty good in that regard, really. My biggest problem is that I just was...

I'm interested, but with the SS86 one coming up... I dunno...

Fair enough, I suppose. For me, there wasn't a marked enough difference between the two for me to really separate them, especially when there were a fair few games featured across both. That said, I feel like Beast Wars looked better than either PS1 or N64, and yet, here we are, discussing why...

Plus... It was probably less about Rhodes and more about Roman and his ilk. And let's not forget... ...because he sure didn't.

How do you mean? I wasn't really trying to lump anything together. For me, there was 16-bit consoles, then 32/64 bit, and then 128 or whatever Dreamcast was, since they quit counting. For Beast Wars, I was just pointing out it came out during the PS1 era, and around the time the N64 hit...

"Swapticons and Mixmashers and Gimmicks, Oh My!"

With scant few exceptions (Mega Man Legends, Metal Gear Solid, maybe a few others), the 3D video game graphics of that age (which, incidentally, is around when Beast Wars was airing) felt like a big downgrade from what we had on SNES and 2D games on the same platform to me. It wasn't until the...

That is a significant reason I am sorry I overlooked.

NGL, one of my favorite things about Fortress Maximus in G1 has been the idea that instead of Spike running that whole thing, it could be me! Kinda lost something to me when they swapped out for Emissary in Titans Return, though.

Yeah, that's kind of how I view it. Sort of like the growing nostalgia for PS1 era game graphics.

Primus's work.

Safety last!

Maybe they find piloted mecha more aspirational. Oh, huh. I could have sworn the Japanese toys I'd seen had blue eyes, while the American had red.

Good to know! Thanks! Maybe I'll get lucky and find something good.

It depends. I first saw Dragon Ball/Z in dub form, and I prefer those voices, though earlier on, the localization kinda blew, but that got better with time. Even watching through Super now, I prefer hearing the English cast I'm familiar with. Death Note, English is what was on TV, and I liked...

Honestly, as far as the mold goes, the only thing that really bothers me is the... protrusion... on the front. (The flames should be better, too, but that's a separate issue.) In RiD 2001, even. They just made X-Brawn's headlights into circles and called it a day.

Cool, but I've not had the good fortune to attend a BotCon yet, and I don't think this is going to be the year, either.
