    Man, I love BWII... I hope this series gets a dub. Then again, that's like hoping we'll get a G1 Megatron re-issue here in the states without the BLAZING ORANGE! safety tip.

    Maybe this means Shout Factory will bring it over Stateside, as well. Even if it's sub-only, I'd be interested in seeing the Japanese BW stuff.

    I'd really like a BW2 and Neo release with Shout Factory.

    What everyone else said! I'd love to see BWII, even if I have to read subs. It's be worth it!

    BRING ON NEO DAMNIT!!!!!!

    this gets me pumped, if beast wars II gets done that means a good chance for neo, and maybe FINALLY we can get some subtitled versions of that show

    Neo will happen. Japan wouldn't start this without finishing it. While raws of both shows are readily available for those willing to hunt for them, this also GREATLY increases the chance of either an official Shout Factory release, or at least some fan subtitled work.

    Heck, if we're really lucky, the releases could be happening BECAUSE Shout Factory is negotiating with Takara about this.

    I hope it gets a little more than a DVD sub here, how about the toyline if the molds are in good enough shape? It could be done in the style Car Robots was to make Robots In Disguise here. I say that worked out pretty well in revitalizing Autobot VS Decepticon TF series into the present day. You can't tell me that if you liked a DVD sub of this, you wouldn't be hunting for the figures later on.

    Awesome. Now to wait for it to be released in the States or in Australia with subtitles.

    I would love to finally see the Japanese exclusive series from the Beast Era.... Especially Neo, since Unicron makes an appearance in that one.
