Each Transformer line has some kind of innovation with their figures and of them wich one do you think it was best implemented?
I mean,who had the best use of Automorph?Who do think had best use of their Minicon port?
Best Cyber Planet Key use?Who used better the concept of a HeadMaster?

I though it was an interresting thing to discuss.

cool idea for a thread. looking at my shelf I see a prime candidate for this: PCC Smolder and Chopster. They work so well together, As a fire-truck and water-cannon, or a fire-fighter looking robot with an axe, or you can change up the gun mode and stick him over Smolder's shoulder so it's like a gun or water hose. The chest-armour mode is ok, but you can also make it look like he's got loads of guns coming out his chest, like RioBlast from He-Man or that one Centurions guy. It's a versatile and well themed (pair of) toy(s).

I want the ULTIMATE GIMMICKY TRANSFORMERS!

It will have automorph fearures, a functional mninicon port (plus minicon) a Mechtech weapon, a spring-loaded missile launcher activated by a cyber key, with a head-master, a powermaster (that unlock part of the transformation) , and a targetmaster. It will have drones to combine in a super mode. Featuring lights and sound. The whole thing would fit in a big-ass pretender shell, with a fire-breathing feature involving a flintstone. Covered in rub signs and a sword that change color once you soak in hot or cold water. The sword does shoot water too.

An I missing anything?

MAKE IT HAPPEN!

At least, trhough a custom.

Armada Sideways is a great example of getting the most out of Minicons.

Maybe not the best, but one of the coolest and most amusing uses of the Cyber-planet key is Armorhide. And as a Basic sized figure, no less!

I liked PCCs Heavytread and how he incorperated his minicon partner into his ramming grill, then into a terrifying claw.

When it came to the Energon Combining teams, I loved how the Autobot SWAT team pulled it off. A very nice cohesive look.

Fortress Maximus: king of Headmasters
Overlord: King of Powermasters
Skyhammer / Roadblock: shared kings of the Pretenders

The Animated Activators Bumblebee and the Starscream molds both show how well an autochange transformer can work.

Also the Classics line as a gimmick shows how great a toy line can be with nearly no gimmicks as their gimmick is just good solid transformation.

The Energon weapons combining to create massive weapons were great as a gimmick with Cruellock having some of the best connector parts(mainly his small gun).
Plus they can really spruce up movie figures like the versatile Laserbeak.

I love the automorph in Leader 07Prime and the legs of deluxe concept Bee and 07 Ironhide.

The only electronic gimmick I like is the variety of sounds in RiD Ultra Magnus / Optimus Prime / Omega Prime.
