Ok, part of why the beast stuff doesn't appeal to me is... well.. what's the
point? The original Transformers were created because the Ark repaired them
to be able to fit in with the vehicles and machinery of Earth. So they're in
"disguise" right?
What's the point of making a robot that can turn into an animal? Is it to
disguise themselves from animals? Why would you do that?
Is there some piece of back story from Beast Wars that will help me
understand this?
