Sad to see Attacktix has never returned.

I voted for not sure because I am fine with either idea. As long as there are more strikers i'll be happy, and of course new factions.

I am leaning towards 'it should be a seperate line'. There are SO very many TF characters to pick from. The only problem I see is the fact that there were very few of the BW characters in the show.... most toy-only characters aren't widely known. But, either way, as long as there'd be a Rattrap, I'd be happy.

i voted yes for one reason, as long as they have the robot AND animal mode it would rock. And characters such as Optimus, Megatron and Cheetor would have 6 different modles

Transformers are transformers, same line. What sense would it make to seperate them?

because so far you have vehicles with the odd beast. the beast wars models would ALL require a beast mode (that might run for a few series)

I think they should be together. SW didn't do a separate line for every movie.

They made them into their own starters, not their own entire series. It would actually make alot of sense to do an all Beast Wars starter.

They are their own series, as indicated by the rear label where a ghost rider figure would have a GR, and a spider-man would have an SM... All the rest of marvel have an M. And its looks as if the spider-man series has spanned over into the spide-man tournament pack, as those figures are also marked with an SM.

What I mean is they're not their own entire series, as I said. There's not a separate set of boosters, with a separate set of 18 figs, plus chromes, to collect, as well as the starters. The Ghost Rider and Spiderman packs were just released to promote the movies. Just like the IGS pack was made to promote the release of TF, but there's not an entire set numbered as SWvs.TF.

Just because they have been released as a smaller series that doesnt contain boosters doesnt mean they are not their own series. Thats the whole idea behind the series designation on the back, its to designate a series. This is further complicated by the figure numbers being re-used. In other words, there is a M/1, a GR/1, and an SM/1... SVT figures are just that, SVT figures... If you were to call them SW4 or TF1 figures, I would have to say your wrong. You cant mix them just because they were released at the same time. They are designated differently, and intentionally.

I don't want to argue over something so frivolous, so I'll just end in saying GR, SM, and SVT are all Attacktix Mini-Series, as I've been trying to say.

Why there needs to be a spider-man series or a ghost rider series is just beyond me. They could have all just been marvel. And really, thats at the heart of the conversation here..Should beast wars be its own series? I say no, what would be the point, transformers are transformers. But given hasbros recent moves in breaking out little sub series' anything is possible. We may see a small BW series. IF there was any kind of small transformer spin-off mini series, my vote would go to constructicons. That would be so freakin cool.

Constructicons would be a cool spin-off, but are there really enough of 'em? You've got 6 from G1, 5 from TF: Energon, and maybe you could count the RID Build Team. (Were there 3 or 4 of those guys?) Of course, once you consider repaints, you could have the green G1 gang, yellow and/or orange G2 Constructies, RID team in Autobot and Devestator colors... well, I guess there would be alot to choose from. Maybe throw in a G1 Omega Supreme mega since he and the G1 Constructies had a closely-tied histroy.... I'm liking it. Make it so!
As for Beast Wars 'Tix, I was thinking about my main dino, Dinobot. Give his beast mode a striker tail, and I'm thinking his robo-mode could have a spining jab-fork, kinda like Ransack. His arm could be stretched out in front of him, holding his strange spinning shield-tail thingy. Hmm? Good?
