Believe me, months ago, when I first saw Prime's Teen Titans/Ben 10 design, I thought it was the Devil. But, it's all kind of growing on me, & really, the only TF shows I've ever truly enjoyed came from the US or Canada, the Japanese just can't seem to get it right, they always want to make it some wierd Pokemonish show. This, I can handle, & there's already 2 seasons done with a 3rd in the works!
This show, just might work. Sure, it ain't G1, nothing is, though, for non believers, Beast Wars is the continuation of G1, it's 300 year in the future. The 2 races in Beast Wars, are the direct descendants of the Autobots & Decepticons. The technology used on them, is an advanced mix of G1's Pretender shells(making life like alt modes) & Micromasters fuel efficiency. They were doing a Micromasters comic, that explains all that. And, for the show itself, it's deffinitly above anything I've seen on the PS1, especially with seasons 2 & 3. If BW could've been done on the PS1, why didn't the BW game look exactly like it? And even if the PS1 can do it, I don't care, I love the show. I used to hate it, just like I used to hate this new show.
With BW, it took years for me to accept it. I finally decided I like some of the toys, namely, TM2 Megatron, since he turns into a dragon, & I love dragons! But, then I noticed there were G1 bots on the show. Not just Starscream & Ravage, but, others too(without spoiling the story), & I realised what the whole point of the Beast Wars was. It's not even that all TF's now turn into animals, it's only that on this one particular planet, there are no vehicles, the only thing that would be worthwhile to transform into to blend in, is animals. On Cybertron, they pretty much are all vehicles. Even then, it's not like we didn't have animalbots before, we had lots, some peoples favorites, like the Dinobots, Predacons, Ravage, Lazerbeak, Buzzsaw, Ratbat, Skylynx, Terrorcons, Insecticons, & more.
But, like Nectarsis said, each to his own.
