Summary: An Awesome Season for an Awesome Show!
Review: About the above, only my mother has bought from this site, so
I had to use her name. Now to the review!

I have been a fan of Beast Wars ever since I saw the first episode, and I saw every episode when it was on TV. The third
season is my favorite season since it wraps the show up very
well.

The Things I Like About Season 3:

1. Newer and better forms to already-great Transformers; the
new forms of Optimus, Megatron, and Cheetor to name some of
them. They look better than ever.
2. The true revelation of the Vok aliens; they were mysterious
in the first 2 seasons, but their physical appearances are
finally shown. They look really cool.
3. New Transformers; there's really only 1 new Transformer in
this season (Depth Charge) if you consider Tigerhawk as a new
form of Tigatron and Airrazor.

The Things I Don't Like About Season 3:

1. Optimal Optimus barely showed his beast mode in the show. I
think he only showed it in 'Optimal Situation', 'Feral Scream
Pt. 1', and 'Feral Scream Pt. 2'.
2. Transmetal 2 Megatron, Transmetal 2 Blackarachnia, and
Tigerhawk are revealed toward the end of the series, so they
aren't in the series for very long.

(The disadvantages can be overlooked pretty easily.) I think
this season wrapped up the show very well, especially since it
has a very funny ending - Waspinator becomes the tribal leader
of the Neaderthals! (Who would've thought?)
I can't wait for Beast Machines to come out on DVD, so then I'll
own my 2 favorite Transformers series. I can't wait!

Summary: why did they make the box pink?
Review: anyway this is the last season of beast wars and it is really cool. This season really ties into the original transformers series back in 84. With the maximal base destroyed they have to protect the arc. This season also introduces a few new characters and brings some back. again with the othere seasons rhino messed up with the packaging...well kinda. The first is that they used a back quality pick of waspinator for disc 2 and in the insode they used a pic of cheetor from the first season.
But all in all it is whats on the disc that counts.

Summary: Beast Wars Season 3 a MUST for any Transformers fan!!
Review: Beast Wars is one of the greatest "kids'" shows that I have ever seen. It is totally true to the original Transformers with a style all its own. It takes the spirit and story of the original Transformers and enhances it to be better than before.

The show has creative plots, on-going storylines, 3 dimensional characters, and excellent dialog. It is so much better than the slop that has been showing lately with 1 dimensional characters with dialog that makes me grit my teeth at times.

Beast Wars brought Transformers back from the brink of extinction. It showed that it could be told in such a way that both adults and children can enjoy it, paving the way for the Dreamwave Transformers comics.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Beast Wars: The Complete Final Season
Review: Ending one of my favorite series of all time, season 3 is the best season in my opinion. What makes it the best? the high stakes, Optimal Optimus, and the many revelations about the G1 Transformers. Beast Wars is a terrific series and i nearly screamed like a school girl when i saw season 3 at the mall. My friends arent really into some of the things i like (cartoons,comics etc) and they didnt understand my glee. It feels great to own the entire series and i recommend to everyone to buy this season and the other 2. I think theres a Beast Machines set coming out, i didnt really like it because of the drastic changes and lack of characters, but i might get it just to complete the collection

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: finally i own it all.
Review: Growing up as a kid i watched a lot of garbage that i cant even remember the names of but one show has stuck with me all these years, beast wars. this was the one show that i watched wich hap plot humor action and even had people die in. when i saw the first season had come out i immediately bought and was then excited to find the second season was coming out soon too. know though i can finally own this great show in its entireity minus beast machines which i did not watch. by the way the special features on this set are a deleted scene! on nemesis part 2 and animatic. everyone should buy these dvds. by the way the special features are hidden in the chapter selection area go through the chapters and it will come up after nemesis 2.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Best storyline of the Transformers since G1
Review: I have been a fan of Transformers since G1 and my interest in them seriously declined with the advent of the third and fourth season as well as the Pretender toy line... My interest because almost automatically peeked with the birth of the Beast Wars because I felt that the Beast Wars addressed many of the problems which the third and fourth seasons suffered from... (1) Too many characters, the Beast Wars had many characters but not so many which prevented proper character development of each major player. You felt like you really knew the characters by the time the series wrapped itself up(2) An underlying plot even bigger than the Beast Wars, something not really dealt with in G1 until the appearance of Unicron in the movie, in Beast Wars it was the Vox who controlled the planet before the arrival of the Transformers and I thought they did an excellent job of tying this series to the G1 series. (3) A credible villian leader, boy did I miss Megatron after he was converted to Galvatron, the insane tyrant thing got old very quick and the Beast Wars Megatron was the same clever, sly villian the original Megatron was. (4) It had a PLANNED ending, unlike G1 which sort of faded into an ending instead. The last season was my favorite because so much took place and I happened to like the transition to Beast Machines, the following season. I also hope that they will release Beast Machines into DVD like they did the Beast Wars. In my opinion, these two combined series had some of the best plot writing I had the pleasure of watching since the whole thing began in 1984.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The 3rd and Last Season
Review: It's great to finally have all the Beast Wars episodes on DVD in great quality. I had rather low-quality VHS copies taped from TV when this show still aired, but they do not compare to these DVDs.

Special features include an animatic from Nemesis Part 2 and a very important deleted scene. Though I wish we could have gotten some interviews with the voice actors or other creators, any special features at all are a treat, and the ones we get are nothing to complain about.

Each episode is divided into four chapters, so you do not have to watch the intro every time.

How can you lose with this great set? And at such a cheap price... it is certainly worth the money!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Third Season
Review: So now the third season is released and long-time fans of the show such as myself will be able to own the entire series. Ok the first episode picks up where the season 2 finale left off and effectively wraps things up. This season was not as dark as the second (except for the two-part series finale) but had some great episodes with some great moments. The Ark and the Autobots and Decepticons inside play a big part in this season as they figure into many of the storylines.
SPOILERS AHEAD:
The last two episodes are unique among 'childrens' shows for many reasons, one of which being that death of most of the cast.
Dinobot reappears as a clone, Megatron steals the spark of the original Decepticon, as well as many other storylines make this a season worth owning.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Almost perfect.
Review: The top five things I hated about Season Three?
1. Less Comedy, more drama.
2. Blackarachnia becoming a "Good Girl". Blech.
3. Silverbolt. Funny sometimes, but too anyone most of the time.
4. Optimal Optimus. Bigger target anyone?
5. TigerHawk. ENOUGH SAID!

But otherwise, great season, 4 stars!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: good but....
Review: This was a good season very cool how they mix in the transformers as well. I had one major problem, and that was the upgrades ever show. I just got stupid after a while. worth getting to complete the set, but do not buy if you are some what interested.
