Just wanna say real quick that I finished Beast Wars Neo just a couple days ago, I thought it was delightful. If you like Car Robots, you'll prolly like Neo, even if you may not enjoy BW II (I didn't).
I liked the setup of going to a new planet every episode, and Big Convoy's characterization as an edgy lone wolf learning to care for his cadets was pretty refreshing and cute. Magmatron mostly sat in a chair but he still managed to have a pretty dominating presence, I liked how he was always pretty calm and level-headed - made it feel like both him and Big were the only two adults in the room, with how the Maximal cadets were kids, and how stupid or crazy the Predacons were lol. Also surprisingly enjoyed D-Navi, she was funny; am now sad a tiny figurine doesn't come with the new Legacy Magmatron (regular Navi was also cute tbdesu) - stark contrast to me hating Artemis in II lol (Moon was chill tho he could hang).
I really hope this means we get more Neo toys in the future, I love most of their designs. Do you think they'd retain the extending claw features somehow on a hypothetical new Longrack or Mach Kick? Like I seriously doubt they'd make a new Heinrad with a working clock (cowards), but the extending scissor arms are p easy gimmicks to engineer I think, no?
Anyway they should make a Core Stampy. Love that lil fagget.
