Re: Beast Wars/Beast Machines ancestors reference
While all that has been posted is true, the BW/BM shows really do or say nothing to contradict the Japanese shows either.
So just because they don't reference them, there's nothing saying that the events of Headmasters, Masterforce, Victory, Zone, Battlestars/Return of Convoy, or Operation Combination, didn't happen in the past of the BW/BM continuity.
And just MAYBE they more heavily reference the G1 Bots and Cons because the two leaders are named after the G1 leaders, not to mention the fact that said G1 Bots and Con actually appear in the BW show.
Also consider that in 1996 the internet wasn't what it is today and only the most truly die hard fans even knew anything about the afore mentioned Japanese series.
