    Any interest in this concept? I think they'd be great, with Commanders Primal, Megatron, Rampage etc, and with Axalon and Nemesis bases. Hell, BW Ravage could even be done!

    I'd especially be interested in the playset bases. I would love having the Axalon and Nemesis on my shelves.

    I would be absurdly in favor of this. Especially if we got Commander class Dinobot out of it.

    I've had this exact idea for a long time. I'd be all over it.

    I would buy anything Beast Wars/Cyberverse in a heartbeat!

    It's about time the Beast Era got some more love...

    I can't imagine a better way to get some new Beast Molds out with limited risk on Hasbros part. At these price points and small size the cost risk would be much lower than making a whole deluxe line of figures.

    And if they make a Waspinator, I would troop build a bunch, disassemble them and keep a ton of parts in Rattrap's corner of the Axalon base set. :lol

    OMG yes. Do want.

    Snowball's chance in hell of this happening, but I'd be all over it if it did.

    I'm throwing money at the screen but nothing is happening. Definitely down for some new Beast Wars figs.

    Would love to see that happen, but somebody would need to bust into Hasbro and force them sadly.

    I could see someone wanting BW Cyberverse to approximate the size difference and interaction between the average Maximal/Predacon and the average Autobot/Decepticon.

    Me for instance.

    Won't happen. Hasbro hasn't really done anything with Beast Wars in a few years. Do you really think they will start off with playsets? Playsets generally don't sell anywhere close to what figures do. Baby steps. Start with a few Beast Wars figures and then if they are popular, make a playset.

    They'd also be compatible with the already existing playsets, which was a big part of the Micromasters charm back in the late 80s.

    The playsets started with DOTM and continued with Prime. I'm thinking about the next wave of the concept.
