PTTV Talking Robots: The Transformers and Toy Collecting Podcast!

Show Notes

It's Y2K y'all! The Beast Wars are over and it's time to return to Cybertron for Transformers Beast Machines! Beast Machines is devices in the Transformers Fandom, primarily because it tried to do something a bit different whilst still being a direct continuation of Beast Wars (which, in case you haven't' been paying attention, is still in the Transformers Generation One continuity! Beast Machines = G1 in the future!) We have new versions of the Beast Wars cast as well as a new enemy in the Vehicons. Optimus Primal, Cheetor, Black Arachnia and Rattrap return to Cybertron only to find their memories wiped, their friends missing and Megatron is in charge! This year has some truly interesting toys so join Oddimus and Moff as they expose the first Transformers of the new millennium! Oh, and ff you haven't already, be sure to check out our interview with Bob Skir, writer of Beast Machines!
