Looks alright, but I have no interest in Beast Wars or Beast Machines.

Machine Wars was a small line of store-exclusives, using repaints from G2. they're vehicleformers, not beasts.

the reuse of the name/chracateristics of a BM character is no different to G1 Starscream appearing in the BW cartoon.

Good to know. lol I wasn't into Transformers when these Machine Wars came out. And I don't particularly like the toys. So, my opinion of it is still the same.

I'm glad the Con exclusive is something neat, rather than something heavily wanted, like Springer.
