We've had three different kid 'favorites', or pseudo-Wolverines/Anakin Skywalkers.. in our franchise which is almost hitting 30 years. Funny is that they're all yellow. Which one is your favorite of the three?

Of those listed, I like Cheetor the best. We got to see him grow from goofy kid to team leader over the course of BW/BM, and he had such a fun personality thru it all. The BW/BM characterizations in general are my favorite.

Of course, I'm terribly biased towards the Beast Warriors. I'm pretty sure Hot Shot had essentially the same story arc (in fact I think Hot Shot even calls Optimus "Big Bot" just like Cheetor does) but he'll never beat Cheetor purely because of that bias.

I grew up more with Hotshot than Cheetor. I miss him. Animated gave me hope, than swiftly took it away.

cheetor is fine and dandy, but I didnt remember much about him as apposed to Hotshot.

Bumblebee has just become a spotlit, over saturated, cash cow of a spotlight whore, and Im tired of him. Bring back Hotshot!

Oh, I voted for Hotshot.

I'm a Beast Wars man and I was never into any of the series at all that featured Hot Shot so I'm not familiar with the character. I find the modern incarnation of Bumblebee to be quite boring, not just because he doesn't speak, but also because as much as the movies/Prime try to sort of make him seem like such, he's never as hardcore/bada$$/ninjamatic as I'd hoped he'd be.

I do like G1 Bee, and Movie Bee is fairly amusing as per his gimmick. I've gotta give it to Cheetor, for doing the character right. Noideaforaname did a good job of listing the reasons why. :)

Overall, I have to say Cheetor is my favorite. Most likeable, at least.

Movieverse Bee comes in at a close second, although the whole radio clips thing is getting old.

G1 Bee.

I hate 99% of beastformers, and Hot Shot is a bad example of a character that tries too hard. Meanwhile, all Bee's since 2007 (except Animated) have all been missing the entire point.
