atopfourthwall: tfwiki: HAPPY 20th BIRTHDAY, BEAST WARS! On April 22nd, 1996, the Maximals and Predacons arrived on television screens for the first time - and Transformers was never the same again! Produced by Hasbro’s Kenner division, the Beast Wars toyline was a radical shift for Transformers, a reinvention of the brand following the unspectacular performance of the Generation 2 line that achieved massive success and saved Transformers from cancellation. The Emmy-award winning CGI animated series pioneered the character-driven, small-cast format that the best future Transformers cartoons would follow, and introduced concepts and terminology that would become intrinsic parts of the Transformers universe - chief among them, the spark itself. It created a new generation of Transformers fans, it brought many lapsed fans back to the brand, and today, it’s still widely considered one of, if not the best Transformers cartoon ever made. ‘Bots or beasts - they’re still the baddest! Yes, there will be some Beast Wars content this year. ^_^ …seriously, why does this year mark an anniversary for so much stuff. @_@ -- source link
