Inescapable Duck posted:Beast Wars seems widely considered to have aged relatively well. It's a bit like Reboot in one of the early CGI shows that worked around the limitations of the medium to good effect: The expense of creating assets compared to animating them means you have a small, expressive cast, so work with them and have ongoing interpersonal drama and character development rather than disposable one-off characters all the time. I've mentioned this often becomes a problem with CGI shows and a bit of a trap; it really shows in the early seasons of the last TMNT show and Sonic Boom. Tellingly, Transformers Prime, a well-received recent CGI show, borrowed the most from Beast Wars tone-wise. Having watched Beast Wars not all that long ago, I can confirm that not only has it aged super well but it may also have some of the best writing in all of Transformers canon. Beast Machines is really good as well and looks even better. Also, I believe the team that worked on Reboot animated Beast Wars, so they did good work all around.

Randalor posted:The only major flaw with Beast Wars is the occasional slapstick/"Saturday morning cartoon" moments (complete with silly sound effects that are horribly out of place). I think those tended to be more season 1 than later on though. Any scene where Megatron is dressed like a judge in the white with is still great, because he's such an excellent villain.

The best part about Funko Pop figures is how you can't recognize half of them without the character's name next to them. Oh hey, that's... White Dude in Shirt!

Ghost Leviathan posted:Oddly enough I mostly know Sabrina from the cartoon, which had Norbert from The Angry Beavers voicing Salem. This was also the case in the live-action show. Nick Bakay is great.
