As have I, but I looked at their Victory Saber kit multiple times and each time I was like "I don't like/want any of this".
The sword blade looks too big, the cannons are too long, the wing extensions make the wings stick out too far and throw off the proportions of their shape... and the new...
Speaking of that "Tread Unit" (as Mark called it in the stream video), turns out we have ourselves another case of the early 90s online fandom passing around a mistranslation until it became widespread enough to be believed by everyone.
The name "Tread Unit" seems to have been born out of...

"Megatron must be stopped! No matter the cost!"
"One shall stand, one shall fall!"
"Why throw away your life so recklessly?"

Alignment at least got a big ol' two-page spread of acknowledgement in The Ultimate Guide book that a lot of people did read including several writers who would go on to work on the brand in an official capacity.
Named "Soundblaster". The BWR story that introduced him was released after that...
It's because Beast Wars Reborn is an uber-obscure prose story that has only ever really been heard of by us diehards who are deep in the sauce and/or have kept up with Andrew Hall's translation work. And at the time of 2010, only two of its four chapters had been fan-translated into English...

Starscream was not a ghost in Cheetor's dream sequence in "The Web".
(He looks a little fuzzy because everything in that dream sequence was fuzzy, to make it look more dreamlike and less like a flashback)
The first script for "Possession" (September 4, 1996) was actually first drafted only 14...
