Beast Wars had so many great moments that rivals even the original Transformers. Dinobot's memorable death, Waspinator possessed by Starscream, a three episode appearance by Ravage, and cameos by Optimus Prime himself. When this show premiered in 1996 previous Transformers fans had their doubts (and who wouldn't when the Maximals leader's name was Optimus Primal?). However after a few episodes it was clearly over with old fans. This show never once slouched at any point. Sure their was certain characters who hardly had development (Terrorsaur, Scorponok, Tigerhawk etc.) but many other characters made up for them (Dinobot, Optimus Primal, Rattrap etc.). I own Season 2 and 3 on DVD. The shows are flawless and always packed with action. Something you don't see on Transformers shows these day.

Not only did this succeed as a brilliant TV show but the toy line was awesome. Sure Transmetals were made as a marketing plan but every toy seemed to be so well thought out and detailed. It's unfortunate that it's follow up (Beast Machines) did not receive the same success.

So basically the entire thing of Beast Wars managed to keep themselves flawless. An amazing show that will never be forgotten.
