And by "interesting", I mean very obviously fake. How do I know? Because this toy doesn't exist! Go ahead, do a google search for "Beast Wars Pocket Beast", and tell me what you come up with. That's right, nothing! Clearly, LongHaul designed 4 small figures, prototyped them in resin, cast the mold, poured the plastic, removed the sprues, cleaned up the parts, painted them carefully, quickly learned enough Japanese to fake the crude kanji and katakana seen on the card back that he made from an old piece of cardboard, sealed the whole thing up, and added a record to our database for it. That's right, the oldest trick in the book. I knew LongHaul would do anything for a few photo points, but this is getting ridiculous. For shame, sir. If you want photo points, you'd better earn them the hard way, like everybody else!
