Indeed. My set arrived last week from Amazon. This was the series that drew me back to the fandom after having been away since childhood, and made me care enough about the characters to go back and investigate Beast Wars, which I had prematurely written off entirely.
I scored an
utterly complete and mint set of Beast Machines toys about five years ago for $275. Every single toy in one shot, including all the Dinobots, Apelinq and all the variations of the Deployers and Beast Riders.
A personal high point in this hobby for me was the airing of BM in Japan last year as Beast Wars Returns. Accompanying that was the release of a small set of BM toys in all new color schemes. This was a terrific flashback, so I had to get all of them through F2F.
Damn, I really love Beast Machines.
Off topic... Suba-Saab and e3NiNe, I noticed your location info says you're north of Chicago. I have to travel to Lincolnshire several times a year for business. Just curious, is that anywhere near you guys or do I have my directions goofed up?
