I'd have to break it down by series:
1 ) A/E/C: Cybertron Leader Prime, Voyager Evac. And all repaints thereof. Prime is probably the most PLAYABLE Leader Prime we've had in a LONG time, as well as with homages to Star Convoy, Powermaster Prime, and more, while Evac is still one of the best Helicopter molds we've had to date (Voyager Skyhammer comes pretty durn close to dethroning him, however).
2 ) Classics, etcetera: RTS Jazz is my personal fave of the line, here, though the Seeker mold pretty much also is frelling awesome, as it fulfilled a personal dream - a recognizeable F-15 that transforms into a mostly cartoon accurate Seeker, no matter how it's painted.
3 ) Animated: Leader Ultra Magnus is just plain fun. As playable as Cybertron prime mentioned above, and it kept the animated aesthetic despite a very blocky vehicle mode.
4 ) Movieverse: Another tossup - this time between Human Alliance Jazz, and ROTF Leader Prime (and its variants), for multiple reasons.
5 ) Other: Masterpiece Grimlock (Takara version) and 20th Anni Prime without a doubt, and Music Label Soundwave for the icing on the cake. 20th Anni Prime even got me back into collecting.
BUT... if I had to drag it down to a single figure... it'd be 20th Anniversary Optimus Prime.
AUTOBOTS, ROLL OUT!
