    They had a tagline that stuck with me after all these years with "Wood beats water, water beats fire, fire beats wood".

    I don't think this line will do well beyond the niche/collector's market, but good luck to 'em.

    yeah, I had 2 when I was little. They were never really successful here. I knew only one kid who had them as well, but they were kinda cool, although they had even less articulation than most transformers...

    Already got a full set of BBs, but I'd sure like to see them on shelves again (original molds, not whatever these things are).

    Battle Beasts are awesome, I love them and try to get as many as I can. I consider myself a pretty big fan.

    I would love to see them back in some form, but the lack of faction/element symbol kind of takes a bit away from what they were to begin with. Also wouldn't want them to be lumped in with some damned minimates line, they're Battle Beasts!

    Also moving this to Toyark.

    Nice to see the BB making a comeback. Don't know if I will be picking any up as of right now. But well see.

    Maybe if they had "rock", "paper", and "scissors" they'd be more successful? :D 

    Jokes aside, I'd like to just see . . . .

    . . . . Autobot/Decepticon rubsigns, or at least a place to put them for reprolabels :ev: 

    YES!

    That's AWESOME. I'm envious, sir. :)
