Optimus Primal rocks! He's my favourite non-Optimus Optimus Prime. Beasties was such a great show (Beast Wars in the States)

Edit: Also obligatory Beast Machines was a disappointing sequel.

I can agree with this. Beast Wars was great in general and Optimus Primal was a big part of that.
 
I wonder how many people voted for him based on what they remembered.

Versus the description they had of him in the poll, two very different characters, so was Rat Trap when he showed up, couldn't have been any more different.

They at least had a beast wars quote in there and used his OG version.

Well they said
Our "Power of the Primes" fan vote will raise the stakes higher than ever. The Prime sets the tone for all things in the Transformers universe, and we're excited to see which direction our fans want to take.

So hopefully there's some good shit.

So long as they bring back the voice actors (or at least David Kaye and Scott McNeil (especially since Scott was like, what, five or six characters?)).

I'm sure David Kaye would be more than willing to come back for Megatron. Hell, he does a yearly Christmas song/poem as Megatron still.

I love that man.

About Star Saber, I never understood that push.. it was like "here he is the best because reasons" and the leader..

He has a really fucking cool design though. Like Optimus Prime as a Gundam.
 
Its the least they can do after shafting Beast Wars' 20th anniversary.

I really hope this brings us some new variations of the characters in toy form and the MPs. Theres clearly enough fan support out there for Hasbro to not have to worry about the series that saved the fucking franchise.

Beast Wars is a tremendous show, good on Optimus Primal for winning!


While we're at it, if there's a Megatron poll/contest, Beast Wars Megatron should totally win--Beast Wars Megatron is best Megatron.

Dinobot's death was the first show that really made me break down crying as a kid. I remember where I was sitting and looking at the clock as it was going to be 4:30. How my mother asked me what was wrong.

It's burned into memory. He knew his fate but chose it anyway.

Also Beast Wars had this motherfucker.

Loved his Transmetal design.
