Did you get the Generations Waspinator, Rattrap, and Rhinox from around 2013-'14? Those were some pretty damn cool toys just on their own merits but that they were also like a mini Beast Wars revival was even better. Too bad it didn't lead into Hasbro actually bringing Beast Wars back and redoing more of the characters. Who knows, with the way they just went all nostalgia heavy for headmasters maybe we could see Beast Wars come back as the main line for a while. I need a new Quickstrike (of course I like the ridiculously over-the-top Texan robot), Megatron, Tarantulas, Silverbolt, etc.

Re: The BW cartoon; That was probably the best toy-selling-based cartoon we've ever gotten. I watched it all again a good while back when Netflix had it all and aside from the visuals being dated (though amazing at their time) it held up pretty well. As with any cartoon there are those episodes or moments that fall well below the rest of the series but as a whole BW was one of the good ones. Characters actually died (sometimes) meaningful deaths, there was a long running plot which was rare for a cartoon at the time, and it also had a good amount of references to the original G1 cartoon to feel like a real sequel.

Also, welcome to the Ark! I know this isn't your first post but you're still new enough and this is as good a place as any for me to say it.
