Who do you view as the greatest tf of all time?

Postby shortround » Mon Feb 11, 2008 3:05 am

Simple enuff question to answer so go for it let us all know what you think it can be from any series of transformers from g1 to the new universe line and anything in between.
For me it has to be predaking he is perfect there is nothing I would change about his mold.
Runner ups would be:
1)sixshot
2)classics skywarp & jetfire
3)powermaster optimus prime
4)omega prime(made up of rid prime & rid ultra magnus)
5)black convey(rid scourge in the united states)

A simple question, but really hard to answer since there are quite a few awesome Transformers made throughout the years.

For me, I would have to say Classics Skywarp. He isn't the most fancy, and he certainly is no Masterpiece figure. But everything about him is done so well. Excellent articulation, looks exactly like his G1 self. Has a good, clean transformation. Good posability. Great colors. Very few flaws. Looks fantastic in both robot and jet mode. So, I guess it does not have to be super-fancy to be great.

Runners up are: Classics Jetfire, Classics Prime/UM, MP Prime and MP Megatron.

Uhm,
Scarem This answer brought to you by the spirit of Chosen
No! Stalker This answer brought to you by the spirit of HC and Burn
Uhm, no, definitly Wheelie This answer brought to you by the spirit of Dai Atsutori (or whatever the hell that guys name was)

Anyways... Just going by the molds that I've actually owned, I'd have to say that I'm partial to RiD Scourge. (the TRU version, not the KB or Spychanger versions)

He's decently posable given the age of the mold, has a nice heft to him, Lots of Acc's, and was a frickin' awesome concept before the whole "Nemesis Prime" thing was done to death.
Even now he is the best of the Black Primes IMHO (yes even including Uni. NP)

I highly recomend people to check out the Seibs gallery of him here.
*Side note
I really wish Ryan would go back to taking his time on his galleries like he used to :?
The opinions expressed in this post are well-reasoned and insightful.
Needless to say, they are not those of SEIBERTRON.COM, its staff members, or any other site lackeys.
Anyone who says otherwise is itching for a fight.

Weapon: Electro-Sword
i think G1 Grimlock was pretty good for the time he was made in, his transformation was very simple, it looked like it did in the cartoon, and he was fairly flexible

Cyb. Hotshot. First TF that got me hooked. I love everything about it. The modes, the transformation, and the weapons.
Skywarp is afraid of the creepy grey bar of ads.

Weapon: Reciprocating Laser Cannon
Metals Tarantulas. The most badass transformer in robot mode.

In both modes: Laser Prime. The original is the best.

Motto: "If I win again I'm still the champion. If you win HAH! that's just impossible.

Weapon: tea cup."
How odd - I thought of this question last night and was going to post it today!

My vote: Masterpiece Prime because he looks good in both modes and the robot mode looks almost exactly as we remember from the cartoon, plus he's so poseable. He'd be better if his hands were more like MP Starscream's but IMHO he's about as close to perfect as we're likely to get.
2nd place goes to either Movie Bumblebee cos he's so CGI accurate, really fun to transform (the two automorphs are really cool) and very poseable or Movie Landmine who has 26 points of articulation. A bit of work with a knife on his hands and he has 32! That's good for any transformer let alone a delux - and is catching up with MP Prime!
