What morphs would you have liked to have seen on the covers?
« on: July 15, 2008, 12:56:38 PM »
-Chimpanzee
-Armadillo
-Crab
-Pelican
-Heron
-Seal
-Sea Lion
-Seagull
-Pigeon
-Frog
-Sperm Whale (At least we got a killer whale...)
-Humpback Whale (see above)
-Lion
-Trout
-Marlin
-Zebra
-Stingray or Manta Ray
-Great White Shark (At least we got a hammerhead)
-Rattlesnake (At least we got a cobra and anaconda...)
-Sea Turtle
-Camel
-Moose
-Elk
-Skunk
-Hedgehog
-Fox
-Squirrel (Could have been the cover morph for The Proposal)

I hated it when Applegate wasted a perfectly good cover to show another one of their raptor morphs like The Conspiracy and The Arrival. I also thought the human fighter pilot morph in The Deception and the Super Rachel morph in The Return were wastes too. The Poodle morph was stupid also. We had enough dog morphs.

This great evil - where's it come from?
How'd it steal into the world?
What seed, what root did it grow from?
Who's doing this?
Who's killing us, robbing us of life and light, mocking us with the sight of what we mighta known?
Does our ruin benefit the earth, aid the grass to grow and the sun to shine?  Is this darkness in you, too?  Have you passed through this night?

isn't there already a thread about this, or was that at RAF classic?

ok maybe not. guess it was on RAF classic.

um...I really don't have any morphs I wish I could've seen. there are scenes I would've liked to see on the stepbacks.

The Animorphs morphing to another Animorph.

Yeah... but... well... I didn't really consider Ax as an Animorph...  :)
He was the only real Andalite bandit...  :)

     Anything that resembles a battle morph for Tobias! Aside from Ax and the Taxxon, Tobias had these woodland/domestic Morphs. Then, you have the encounter and the change covers; which are pretty much identical (that was pointless). Then he Morphs a rabbit and a dog! Meanwhile, you give Jake a tiger! Rachel and elephant and a grizzly! Marco gets his Gorilla! And Cassie gets a wolf, Hork-Bajir, and buffalo (wasn't she supposed to be the PASSIVE one? Is that supposed to be ironic?)

     I would disagree about the raptor morph. I would have liked to see each of them morph their own bird of prey. I also think we should have seen MORE alien Morphs; have each character morph one. Less woodland Morphs; maybe more insects. Less morphing into other humans.

     I would have liked to see:
     Howler
     Leeran
     Nartec
     Kafit Bird
     Lion
     Taylor
     Bald Eagle
     Golden Eagle
     Osprey
     Gedd
     Wasp or Hornet
     Cougar
     Lynx
     .....Cool looking Morphs! No ant-eaters, or house pets.

These weren't ever acquired, but I thought they would be neat morphs anyway.

Flamingo
Turtle/tortoise
Something "useless" like an anemone or giant clam (I suppose starfish counts, but that's boring)
Secretary bird
Giraffe
Earthworm
Walking leaf
Manta ray
penguin
Gedd
Hippopotamus
Ostrich
Toad

I could go on forever, but I'll stop there.  For now

If Marco did morph Rachel,I bet Rachel would have broken both of Marco's arms. :P

If Tobias morphed Taylor on the cover,then then they will have to get rid of the taxxon morph and the taxxon morph was pretty cool

Oh yeah, I was kinda waiting for a penguin morph while I was reading the series. That would be an awesome cold-weather morph, especially Emperor penguins.
Instead we got polar bears... :(
