Silverbolt (Beast) Retrospective - The Maximal Bird Dog! 

The same can be said about G1 inferno and beast wars inferno

Beast Wars Silverbolt can be inspirational in small doses but too much of him will just make you put your face in your hands and say just stop talking.

So two animals mixed together. Basically a chimera.

Silverbolt was my favorite one. The toy was amazing and I model alot of my DnD characters off him.

That was one of my fave lines... Venus Terzo delivered it , beautifully

So whose wife does he.. ya know?

And yet he constantly got his butt kicked by, of all bots, Waspinator.

@@Okiedog1 I forgot about that part, makes me feel like the universe gave Waspinator a chance to return the favor. Everyone else blows up Waspinator and then Waspinator turns around and blows up Silverbolt, sounds like a form of karma. Another reason to love Waspinator, at least returning him t some level of his skilled "Beast Wars pt.1" appearance

Beware of the nice ones. Especially those with an sense of chivalry and honor

@@Okiedog1 He was actually one of the most effective maximal fighters considering how late he came into the series with a very respectable ratio of victories versus defeats. He placed third overall with Rat Trap and Rhinox taking 1st and second (Rat Trap is the most effective fighter in the whole series), then followed by Dinobot in 4th, Depthcharge in 5th, Optimus in 6th, the rest kinda falling into the spaces between, and dead last is poor Cheetor who is the only maximal that wound up with more losses than victories. I think it's largely due to just how strong his primary weapon is, how he can fly, and how he does have some strategy when fighting. Compare it to Quickstrike who is the worst fighter in the entire series (yes even worse than Waspinator) who only has a venom bite, a weak-ass green laser, can't fly, and is dumb as rocks. Overall yes, he did get ganked by Waspinator once, but he has a good track record otherwise.

@@Okiedog1 think waspinator had the best aim, they took out waspinator bcuz he was the real threat. Look how many times he downed Optimus & bullseyed just about everyone

"well I like your resume." still great line nonetheless!

Agreed. I'd really like to see what could be done for both modes.

I doubt we’ll get it

Well, we are getting BW2 Skywarp, so you can reporpuse him.

Yes we need a kingdom Silverbolt. And a kingdom Waspinator.

@@CameronHudson06 Waspinator is confirmed, while Silverbolt isn't.

Yup. One is old English and the other old japanese.

Scott McNeil can describe both of them too

Ah...My...Predacons! ❤ ( Seriously this'll make an awesome spinoff!)

Megs smile killed me, it was a cute family portrait!

I could not agree more!!!

Other than his love for heroism I prefer flying-target Waspinator and Dinobot

The three of them are voiced by the same actor

Or he would be added in some universe, with Blackarachnia of course

@@illyanesterenko8930 Yeah.

Curious, you manage to get the Legacy release of Silverbolt?

'beast wars'

Me too

@Insecticon Bob I think they ruined everyone but Cheetor in Beast Machines.

@@aikou2886 No they didn't!

@@humangirl2122 Care to explain why or how is it that they didn't ruin everyone but Cheetor? A lot of people seem to believe Cheetor got some character development/growth in BM but in reality that has always been a thing for him since he was just introduced as the kid who got into war (pretty much the reason he even got a TM2 form on the first place, in order to better represent his passage from a child to a teenage/adult) so everything stayed the same for him. Optimus Primal became a zealot obsessed with the oracle to the point of almost starting his own cult so that's why Cheetor had to take his place as a leader (they even mention several times that he has become a danger to the others but still respect him). How did he go from a born leader, a rational character and the voice of reason to… pretty much a feeble minded preacher? Blackarachnia was a little more than a babysitter but when she wasn't then her entire character revolved around finding Silverbolt or suffering because of him. She was the enbodiment of a strong and independant woman in the previous series, she even intimidated Dinobot if I'm not mistaken. Silverbolt just became an angsty teenager. Do I need to say more? While Rattrap became a substitute for Rhynox he also happened to became a one dimensional hacker (some attempt of a hacker because reasons) despite being the most irrational character in the whole series. As a matter of fact I think he was less of a coward in the previous series since he had no problem to face the enemy face to face. Rhynox… just became a different character. Call it brainwashing if you want but that was a completely different character even after he regained his conciousness. We had a magnific depiction of what an evil Rhynox would have looked like on the previous series so I don't know what their excuse was for this one.

I’m surprised with the multiverse crossovers, they haven’t done that with them or Inferno.

He was always a maximal. He was just tricked by Megatron into joining him when he was first acitivated

Well we got silverbolt for Legacy United wave 2, maybe depth charge in wave 3 or 4

Yeah that would have been a great story to cover.

I can see something dynamic out of it. The Autobot wondering if he’s left a worthwhile legacy as the bot of the skies and the Maximal pondering on if he’s worthy of bearing the name of a legendary war hero.

I have at least five Maxamals, so I look forward to the Silverbolt toy.

I hope so too

BuT We WAnT mORe g1

I also thought Silverbolt was great in Beast Machines.

Thanks brother!

The molds might have been good, but the colors were not my cup of tea. Considering how much they shelf warmed back in the day, a lot of people felt the same way.

That's cute when they're together

@@frederickgrandison3609 thanks! LoL

I liked him as well. Especially since his experience as a Vehicon gave him more of an edge.

Thanks!

That would be awesome if they did. Bring in Silverbolt, Tarantulas, BW Inferno, and Gears!

Lol I was just about to say that. Glad I'm not the only one who thought that😄
