Quick question: What is the most used TF mold ever?

I know this thread will be short lived, but here goes anyway:

What is the most used Transformers mold ever? Counting every repaints or retools. Even reissues will count.

What are the numbers?

I could guess the G1 seeker mold but I don't really know the details.

I could give you an answer, but it'd take some time tallying up the numbers. In any case, Seeker molds are a strong contender in any toy line.
Top 5 Priorities:

1) BW Neo X-7 Elphaorpha
2) BW II VS-18 Powerhug vs. Autocrusher
3) Universe 2003 Night Slash Cheetor
4) RiD Landfill (regular, not the yellow)
5) BW Convobat (red) & Megalligator (purple)

Also looking for any clear Arms Microns, like Shadow (Gora & R.A.), Hellflame and Shining (O.P. and R.A.).

I would say, off the top of my head, probably the Generations seeker mold (not the same as G1) and G1 Optimus's mold are the top 2. The newer seeker mold includes all kinds of variations from the classic trio to repaints such as Acid Storm, Sunstreaker, and some of the G2 Botcon guys. Prime, on the other hand, has been repainted into Magnus, Nemesis Prime, G2, Pepsi, and other specials. Also, lately, the Classics Rodimus mold has been used for everything from Rodimus himself to TFCC Sideburn and others.

Motto: "Freedom is the right to KNEEL BEFORE ZOD!"
I was actually thinking of this yesterday because of the upcoming Artfire. In the Classics/U2.0/etc. series, the Starscream mold has been used at least 20 times, Rodimus at least 10, Sunstreaker/Sideswipe 9, Prowl has 8 off the top of my head, and Inferno will be up to a surprising 7 matching Bumblebee's 7.

But the mold with the most total uses is probably G1 Bumblebee.

Cliffjumper and Bumper are not retools of Bumblebee. They merely share the same engineering and transformation like BT Smokescreen and BT Meister or even G2 Smokescreen and Energon Starscream.
And let's not count the South American varaties, please. :lol:

Weapon: Null-Ray Rifle
Many of the real bigger ones have been mentioned. The original cheetor mold has seen a fair share of use

-Cheetor
-Tigatron
-Fox kids Cheetor
-10th Anniversary Cheetor
-Shadow Panther
-Telemocha Cheetor
-telemocha Tigatron

You may also count the US Vs Japanese release of tigatron, as the US is off-white, while the japanese release was more pure white. Usually getting at least 6 uses is something for a seeker mold.
