Beast Wars book

Unread post by transformersvoice »

I hope this is an appropiate place to mention this, I just bought a Beast Wars Transformers book containing virtually everything about the Beast Wars universe. It has the stories of The Gathering, The Ascending, The Beast Wars Source book with every characters profile, their background, strengths and weaknesses and a large glossary. The glossary contains a lot of information in alphabetical order, for instance the glossary tells us who Primus and Unicron are and other characters. Great pictures too, it wasn't cheap, $26, but I figured I would mention it.

Is that the full title, and who is the author, publishing information, etc? I would very much like to go hunting for this awsome-sounding book ;)

Thanks for posting this!

The book is called, Transformers Beast Wars/Omnibus. Try going to www.idwpublishing.com

I don't know what Omnibus is or means, perhaps the author? I don't know, I just got it yesterday so I have a lot of reading to do, precisely 373 pages of it! I found it at a comic book store.

omnibus is collection

such as if you have soaps on tv during the week, there might be an 'Eastenders Omnibus' at the weekend, where all the week's episodes are in the same place :D

I'm going through the Beast Wars sourcebook section and trying to create some voices for random characters.

I really do sincerely apologize for the bump, but I've been looking this book up from Amazon. Can either of you tell me if there's a hard cover copy?

Personally I see nothing wrong with bumping old threads, especially since I would most likely never have seen this thread about the awesome book if nobody had bumped it. :)

I simply do not have time to read every post before the time I got here, and a new reply adds to the content of the thread so it's got something new for everybody including the people who were around from the beginning.

That's the same one I've been checking out. I might buy one for around $15-20 USD. The only thing that's holding me back is that it's paperback! I'm afraid of something bad happening to a book this epic (such as it falling off my desk and bending the cover).

My grandmother refuses to let me buy something off of the internet that involves credits or debit cards, she don't like paypal either. So the only way I can buy something online is with money orders and I can't find this book with the choice od money orders T^T
