This dvd set brought back so many memories!
I hadn’t seen Beast Wars for years and, honestly, I didn’t think that I really paid a whole lot of attention to it when my kids were little. It was “their” show that kept them entertained while I was busy with other things. I was surprised at how familiar the whole thing was and how complex the story is. The episodes can be enjoyed by fans of all ages.
Season 1 is a great introduction to the Transformers saga for new, young fans and it will have nostalgic appeal for teens and young adults who remember enjoying it when they were young. They’ll probably also pick up on some extras that they missed when they were younger.
Fans will also enjoy the bonus features: Maximize! Creating A New Breed of Transformer, Art Gallery and Original Character Models. I always like seeing the behind the scenes footage to understand what went into making the program.
WHERE TO BUY – The dvd set is available at a discount on Amazon.
