| Omnibot  Join Date: Aug 2008 Posts: 291 News Credits: 1 | The reason why Beasties isn't on Canadian Netflix is due to ownership. In Canada, Alliance Atlantis owns the distribution rights to the show where as Shout Factory has them in the US. It's why we didn't get the DVD box sets released last year. Sig pictures are to be no larger than 40KB in file size and should be no larger than 300 pixels in height and 500 pixels wide - 2005 Staff Quote:

Collection Count: I don't have enough fingers and toes... | I think the more important question is; who can resist the urge to giggle when you here 'Beasties!' in the opening song? I sure as hell can't. It really cracks me up.  http://www.thedeli-guy.com http://jimclassicstoycollection.tumblr.com/ |

I do remember 'Animutants' too but can't find it on my packaging. But then I've only got photos of my cardbacks and boxes to hand here so maybe it was on the card fronts.  | |

| "Apart" ≠ "a part"  Join Date: May 2004 Posts: 8,798 Location: Germany News Credits: 50   | Beast Wars toys came in several multilingual packaging variations. Canada and Central/South America got English/French/Spanish packaging named "Beast Wars/Guerre Bêtes/Guerra Bestias". In Europe, France, the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany got French/Dutch/German packaging named "Beast Wars/Ani Mutants" (the latter being for the French market), whereas the United Kingdom, Spain, Italy and the Scandinavian countries got English/Spanish/Italian named "Beast Wars/Biocombat" (the latter being for the Italian and Scandinavian markets). Also, the latter version often featured double English/Italian names for the characters. The only exception were the European-exclusive "Transmetal" redecos of Spittor and Claw Jaw, which came on English/German/Italian cards named "Beast Wars/Biocombat".  My sales thread, my feedback as a seller and buyer. |
