Sounds like what happened to me...I didn't like the name Beasties as a kid so when I heard "COMING UP NEXT! BEASTIES!" I'd change the channel...one day I'm flicking through and I see cheetor jump in cat form and transform.
WTF is this....BEASTIES!? GAH!!! WHAT HAVE I MISSED!?

Lol, same for me. I caught the intro one day and under "Beasties" it said "Transformers." Then I started watching and realized that they WERE Transformers and my mind was instantly blown. It was soon after that I discovered that there were Transformers toys in the stores!! Transmetal Dinobot was purchased soon after. And since then, its never stopped.

Aside from the commercial story I mentioned in the podcast. I remember first hearing about the show via the YTV voice over guy during the credits of other shows "From the creators of Reboot, be sure to catch Beasties!" I figured Mainframe did some animal CG kiddy show. When I actually saw it (Episode 2), I was not 100% sure it was related to Beast Wars cause Primal was not a bat, but then I saw Cheetor and all was kosher.

After a few episodes had aired, I was taken to TRU to buy one of the toys, not knowing which toys were out or not. When I got there I was like "Umm... thats not Optimus Primal! Where's the ape? Where's the T-Rex!?" So instead I came home with Cheetor

Yup, Red Eye cheetor. I didn't get many more until Christmas that year, when I got my Primal and Megs. I am very sad that I never owned a Rattrap though...
