Description My favorite transformer ever. The way he smirks in his beast mode... The way he thinks... His code of honor... His growling voice and shark-like teeth... His majestic appearance despite that ridiculous color palette... His Shakespeare-like verses in that episode where he voluntarily put his neck under the guillotine of honor and duty. His valiance and loyalty to those who weren't supposed to be his allies. His care for them despite his almost despising demeanor... Everything abut Dinobot is full of mystery yet perfect sense.
Arrrgh.. I missed him during Transmetal Arc and Cybertron Arc T_T

You didn't know I was into those, hey? And I'm a Silverbolt/Blackarachnia shipper :3

My favorite part about him? The interaction between him and Rattrap. So hilarious!

So easy to think of them as a couple by the way they argue.

THERE ARE ARTWORKS OF DINOBOT AND I FIND AN ABSOLUTELY PERFECTION ONE! Dinobot is the BEST! Next to Rattrap... Hmm. I can't seem to decide which of the two I like better, actually... But the scenes between them are ALWAYS enjoyable - even on the hundredth thousandth viewing of it

Hehe, I liked how Rattrap and Chopper-face used to fight with each other I bet Rattie was the saddest when Dinobot died - it was him, after all, who used to doubt his loyalty all the time.

Aah.. I missed him in the third season Although Blackarachnia was cool and her search for "Birdbrains" and such, but still. It's not the same.

Indeed. But I loved Cheetor's story. He became really cool after all Rampage and Depthcharge were also great. The idea of showing underwater fights was awesome.

Yeah. Cheetor could easily replace Optimus as a leader.

I swear I remember this...or at least I think so. There was a cheetah or leopard....a gorilla...oh I can't remember!

Yeeeesss!
cheetah - Cheetor
gorilla - Optimus Primal
rat - Rattrap
rhino - Rhinox
falcon - Airazor
tiger - Tigatron (him and Razor are a canon pair)
wolf/eagle - Silverbolt
black widow - Blackarachnia (her and Silver are a canon pair)
velociraptor - Dinobot :3
That's the more or less stable Maximal team

YES! That's it! Aw what I would do to see that show again...!

Just search youtube or similar video streaming sites for "Beast Wars". It helps to have the list of all episodes' names in the next window - you might need them to make a better search, since episode 1, 2, ...15.. 18 and so on might not get you what you want.
I can feel ya, I watched the show till the episode where Optimus launched himself in a pod into that star-like thing to save the Earth, and I remember the screen darkening and the words "The End..?" on it. I was around 12 back then, and they never showed Beast Wars again in that country. It wasn't until about a year ago that I got my hands on youtube's collection of almost all episodes. It felt much different from what I thought it was in childhood, and the graphics was not so cool anymore (10 years ago 3D cartoons were a REAL KABOOM), but it was definitely worth watching again - from the very beginning and to the end. Even brought tears to my eyes here and there.

Yeah... and it's amazing how I forgot almost all transformers who weren't in the initial groups

Hey you did better than me! I forgot their names even....and I also forgot how many there were!

Aen-Riv In reply to Jaddahakarie [2010-09-19 00:07:51 +0000 UTC]

There...were...a...LOT
Plus all of those cameo appearances of other transformers from the mainstream story and such. I still don't quite remember what the heck was Depth Charge doing.. well, I do remember there was some stingray-like bot, bot that's it. After Optimus' seeming death, they started popping up like mushrooms. Sometimes that drove me nuts 'cause I tried to do my best in remembering their forms and names, and allegiances XD And when they went into Transmetal stage, thet was even worse - they started CHANGING THEIR APPEARANCES But I kinda like how Cheetor lookd in the first transmetal stage. Rattrap's form, however, is not so appealing

Wow, I didn't even get that far! Though it was during a very...unfavorable time of my life that I was watching that, so it's kinda expected that I don't remember much of the show, but I know I didn't get that far!

Go watch them if you have time - maybe that will also act as a boost to your inspirations

I meant all these nostalgic feelings that surface when watching Beast Wars again just might help you find some more inspiration. You never know ^_^

Oh! Yeah that too. XD Now I get it, but I gotta fuel this inspiration towards my unfinished projects instead of drawing Kurai....forcefully showing her admiration for Renji. XD
