To vote for the "Favorite Underrated Transformers Character" category click here.

Nominees for the "Favorite Transformers Character" category, mostly based on data from previous years, include:


Blackarachnia
Image
The femme fatale spider from Beast Wars and Transformers: Animated.

Cyclonus
Image
This iconic Generation One character has been seen in many iterations through the years. Cyclonus has recently seen a resurgence in popularity due to his depiction in IDW Publishing's Transformers: More Than Meets The Eye comic series.

Galvatron
Image
This iconic Generation One character is sometimes the upgraded and reformatted version of Megatron himself.

Omega Supreme
Image
This popular guardian robot is from several Generation One based series, as well as Transformers: Energon and Transformers: Animated.

Rattrap
Image
Sneaky Maximal from Beast Wars whose trouble causing antics can even today be found in the pages of IDW Publishing's Transformers comic series.

Ravage
Image
The loyal minion cassette to Soundwave, vengeful Tripredacus Agent in Beast Wars, and Megatron's constant companion aboard the Lost Light.

Scorponok
Image
The fear inducing Decepticon Headmaster general most notable for appearances in Generation One series such as the original Marvel comics run, who has also had character iterations in Beast Wars, Transformers: Energon and the 2007 live action Transformers.

Springer
Image
The experienced soldier and commander of the elite Autobot "Wreckers". Also well known for appearances in several IDW Publishing comic series. Wreck and Rule!

Thundercracker

Most notably known as "the blue plane" from Generation One and a seeker under the command of Starscream. Has most recently been seen on Earth writing screenplays with canine companion Buster in the pages of IDW Publishing's Transformers comic series.

Unicron
Image
The Chaos Bringer himself. Will this be the year that this dark titan of Transformers lore finally breaks into the Hall of Fame?


This poll will end sometime in the morning (United States time) of March 9th, 2016 to allow staff time to send results to Hasbro in time for their deadline. You may vote for one choice.

Feel free to use the thread below to discuss your choice for this particular category. General discussion of the 2016 Transformers Hall of Fame Fans' Choice voting (as well as the overall vote outside of fansite nominations) should take place in the main Transformers Hall of Fame 2016 thread.

It's been fixed, sorry about that! Must have been a long-standing bug that we weren't aware of until today. Let us know if you have any trouble from here on.

Couldn't you have found a better image for Blackarachnia? I hazard to say she's got one of the sexiest designs when it comes to her animated appearances and pretty much ever toy except her first one.

This one's on me, being the one that put the post together. This is a fair point, but I just liked the variety of throwing in the tech spec. Plus, I figured just about anyone on this site is well aware of Blackarachnia so figured it wouldn't be of much harm; early returns seem to agree with that :)

Wanted to vote for Optimus Primal, but since he's not an option, went with Blackarachnia.

Motto: "A cunning smile is more devastating than the fiercest weapon."
Weapon: Anti-Thermal Cannon
Was gonna go with Galvatron but remembered how much I dislike his season 3 characterization preferring the animated movie and certainly the Marvel UK version.

Went with Scorponok cos his character growth in the Marvel comics and having a touching death scene though really I class that as Zarak over Scorponok (and thus don't consider the Regeneration One character as the same one) but yeah that'll do. Easily my fave instance of a Decepticon leader allying with the Autobots (and in a natural and logical way, also not actually becoming one... yeah I don't like 'Megabot' in IDW at all).
I have anxiety, depression and aspergers syndrome so my behaviour can be erratic. I don't mean offense to anyone. Just very picky about my Transformers collecting. You're all cool! :)

Likes: Bayverse, Marvel UK G1, Geoff Senior art, '86 movie (more for style/soundtrack rather than Star Wars plot)
Dislikes: Bumblebee movie (lousy rehashed dumb crud), TFA, G1 cartoon, IDW G1, BW/BM, MP. The entire concept of Autobot Megatron

Primal is a painfully glaring omission, considering it's the big Beast Wars anniversary and the whole "wink-wink-nudge" of Hasbro specifically mentioning the character's "available" for the Hall of Fame.
