- Comment from Michael Widmann (on Facebook)
- What do you guys thing about all the new beast wars themed figures coming out? Personally I’m very excited because beast wars was the series I grew up watching. I thought I heard you mention a new ongoing IDW series starting up soon? What do you think the likelihood of it being beast wars related would be? I think it would be an awesome way to bring some of those beast wars era character into the current continuity.
