I know BM gets a lot of hate, and granted, the show was a big step down from BW, but honestly, I... actually liked a lot of the toys. Yeah, many of them based on the show sucked (like the aforementioned Cheetor), but some of the more random filler figs, like Hammerstrike, were pretty fun. And the Vehcions were almost universally great figures, even if they weren't very show accurate in the cases of the ones in the series itself.

BM Night Viper was a pretty fun figure and for a snake former, they really pulled off a great figure with no kibble.

Yeah Night Viper was pretty cool, the Unicorn with the Halbard was awesome, even the later Cheetor with the swords they reused for Catscan was pretty decent.

Ah, Night Slash Cheetor. I got the Universe repaint. Oddly enough, while I'm thinking of Cheetor, one of the few decent Titanium figures was based off his BM look... I wonder where mine is, and how bad it's decayed...

Apparently the story with that Titanium figure is that Hasbro wanted a Cheetor figure, but didn't specify which Cheetor. So the designer decided to do Beast Machines, and by the time they realized it, it was too late.

We also need Geneations Autotroopers. The ONLY good thing that came from KISS players...and I feel dirty saying anything good about it.... Firedrive/Shaoshao Li is pretty good too... But the rest? Yeah.

Well, here's the second trailer. "You thought it was Beast Wars, but it was secretly Beast Wars II!"

I'm surprised they kept that one big plot point a secret for this long. Unless I missed something. The trailer, really makes me excited for this movie. But I hope they don't try to cram too much into a single movie again. I know the selling point are the big robots, but I also like a coherent story as well.

I heard rumours they where using Unicron.... but I assumed he was like a trilogy deal of films.

I share iacon's concern -- there's a LOT for one movie here. It looks like it'll be great fan service and seems to actually give some personality to the robots.. but will it have a coherent story or be a damn mess?
