Which ones would they be and why? For the purposes of this thread, I'll limit classic to pre-2000 cartoons. For instance, I'd say 40k would be transformers. Its been around a long time with tons of reboots yet it largely stays the same with only some tweaked superficial changes. Folks who got in at the beginning (g1/rogue trader) swear it is the best but newer fans just see dated mediocre visuals in that early stuff and don't understand what the fuss is about. The most recent reboot has cranked up the flash to 11 but at the cost of it's real substance.

Yes, and Robotech would be Robotech. I forgot to put in that disclaimer when there was an official cartoon! As for Battletech, I'd put it in as Dragonball Z. Overly complicated fights between funny looking combatants that have tons of detail bogging the action down leading to multiepisode fights where nothing actually happens till the final scene/roll.

Battletech HAD a saturday morning cartoon, though.

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.

That is not dead which can eternal lie ...

... and yet, with strange aeons, even death may die.

I get that... so did Robotech. The joke/point was to pair it with a game that matches its style/flair for various reasons, not the most literal translation to moving pictures.

I refuse to acknowledge that there was an actual Battletech cartoon.

Somerset Strikers, Enhanced Imaging, all the rest of the BS that didn't EXIST in Battletech makes it invalid.

So... I'm still waiting on a REAL Battletech show.

Battletech would be Robotech.

Robotech, obviously would be Battletech.

Both Warhammers would be Masters of the Universe - Herohammer with big swords and skulls.
