    Closer to the other way around, since Archaeopteryx was already believed to have feathers. Some scientists believe the two species are related, but they are not the same. Archaeopteryx is believed to have been capable of flight and lacks the scythe-like hind talon of the Velociraptor. Raptors, on the other hand are still generally believed to be flightless. Also, Archaeopteryx is abou the size of a magpie, while Velociraptor is about the size of a large turkey. Archadis is still pretty accurate to what Archaeopteryx is thought to be like, unlike Dinobot compared to the new feathery concept of Velociraptor.

    What about asking for pics of Corahda?

    [​IMG]

    If you wanted the toy instead, well, there's pics everywhere, including from the recent Wondercon.

    For the record, the main show characters:

    Gung Ho
    Navi (No figure)
    Big Convoy
    Long Rack
    Corahda
    Break
    Heinlad
    Stampy

    Dinosaur
    D-Navi (No figure)
    Magmatron
    Dead End
    Saberback
    Guilledart
    Sling

    Blendtrons (post episode 25)
    Elephaorpha
    Drancron
    Rartorarta

    Those characters were in every episode, more or less. One of them may not have been in it, and I didn't notice, but I'm pretty sure they're in all of them. Part of what makes the show a bit different, was that both sides would assign the mission to 2-3 bots to go down and collect the capsule, so there was a different focus/dynamic every week. Sometimes they'd both use the full crew, but not all the time. Far more common was everyone but the leaders.

    Several other toy characters were in the show as well, a single episode cameo essentially as a guest star. Rockbuster, Mach Kick, Randy, Bump, Hardhead, etc. They don't join the "cast" so to say.

    The neat thing was that if you just wanted the main show characters (Like I did initially), there's VS sets, like Break VS Dead End, a 2 pack that had both figures. So, outside of Heinlad, you could buy the cast of the show by purchasing 5 VS packs (Not counting the Blendtrons) and you're done.

    Nice summery, Pravus Prime :)  Just one thing, Mach Kick and Arcadis are normally counted as regulars because even though they didn't appear until ep 15, they stay on unlike other "guests" who only appeare in a single episode.
    (If I may nitpick, Hydra appeares in 2 episodes ;) )

    Boo, get back to me! *waves*

    Yeah, Neo Dead End is a pretty cool toy. Not bad for a shell-former at least. I never could quite get his arms and legs to fold back up right when converting him back to beast mode...

    Anyone else think he looked like a big peppermint in his beast mode? :p

    There's a trick to his transformation. You have to fold the arms and legs in a very specific way to fit the shell onto him. I'd detail it but don't have my Dead End in front of me. I really need to get his MIB ass out of storage.
