Who is your favorite individual 'Bot or 'Con from subgroups in G1
Posted: Thu Jul 26, 2012 6:35 pm
Hi, guys.
Just looking at a couple of subgroups, like the Dinobots, Insecticons, Constructicons, etc. and thinking "Okay, so these guys form a group, but let's not forget the group has individuals." Then I asked myself a question; Who is my favorite of each subgroup in G1, and who is my favorite overall?
Well, I'm here to list that, and then find out yours. Just out of curiosity. And when I say G1, I'm talking about the ones in the U.S cartoons, not including those of the toylines or the Headmasters cartoon.
Warning; This has got to be one of the longest threads I've done. Grab a bag of popcorn!
Seekers
I've been fiddling back and forth on whether or not to consider the Seekers a subgroup, so I put it in anyway, considering I have my favorite out of them too. Let's review who's in the bunch.
*Starscream
*Thundercracker
*Skywarp
*Dirge
*Ramjet
*Thrust
(and technically:)
*Sunstorm
*Acid Storm
Honestly, my favorite out of all of these would be Thundercracker, just because he's different........that's it, really.
Dinobots
Me PrimeStriker say they Dinobots are superior Autobot subgroup. Me PrimeStriker think I list they Dinobots now:
*Grimlock
*Slag
*Sludge
*Swoop
*Snarl
Me PrimeStriker favorite Swoop out of all of them Dinobots. He Swoop, and he fly! He Swoop awesome!
Constructicons
One of the best Decepticon subgroups/combiners of all time! But for all you newbs out there, the Constructicons consist of:
*Scrapper
*Long Haul (Why is Scrapper always listed first. Why can't I be listed first? This is bull!)
*Bonecrusher
*Mixmaster
*Hook
*Scavenger
*And their Gestalt: DEVASTATOR!!!!!!!!!!!111
Mixmaster has got to be my favorite out of those 6. Come on, he's a freakin' CEMENT TRUCK! CEMENT!!!!!
Insecticons
The army builders of 1985! The Insecticons could mass-multiply! Incredible! They consist of:
*Bombshell
*Shrapnel
*Kickback
*Bombshell
*Shrapnel
*Kickback
*Bombshell
*Shrapnel
*Kickback
*Bombshell
*Shrapnel
*Kickback
*Did I mention Bombshell?
Oh yeah! My favorite out of those 60k+ is Kickback, Kickback, Kickback, as well as Kickback.
Aerialbots
Oh my god! Flying Autobots! That's never been thought of before! I mean come on, it's pretty obvious that Skyfire can fly, and pretty much everybot in the series defies gravity by being able to take to the skies in robot mode, but come on, they can FLY, and they're AUTOBOTS!
They are:
*Silverbolt
*Slingshot (Damn humans!)
*Fireflight
*Skydive
*Air Raid
*And their Gestalt: Superion
My favorite is Air Raid, probably because I can't pick one out of all.......
Stunticons
Oh my god! Decepticon cars! What the hell?! All the Decepticons are jets & various human devices! There aren't any Decepticons on the ground! Well, except for Blitzwing, and those construction vehicles....what were their names? Uhm.....we should probably either rethink this toy selling gimmick or bring the land vehicles into battle more often.
*Motormaster
*Breakdown (STOP LOOKING AT MY NAME! DAMN!!!)
*Dead End (Life is useless)
*Wildrider (ADHD IS FOR CHUMPS!)
*Drag Strips
*And their Gestalt...Menasor!
I favor Breakdown. Why are you guys looking at me like that? Stop it! Okay, I changed my mind! Goddammit! THEY'RE OUT TO GET ME! *Jumps out the window*
Protectobots
Hey, there are those guys that appeared out of nowhere! Buy our toys!
*Hot Spot
*Groove
*Streetwise
*First Aid
*Blades
*And theit Gestalt...Defensor!
Favorite? Blades, without a doubt. He can fly!
Combaticons
Starscream's holy grail. Anyway...
*Brawl
*Onslaught (Hey! I'm the leader! I should be first! Hate you forever, Brawl)
*Vortex
*Swindle
*Blast Off
*And their Gestalt...Bruticus (Maximus)!
I like Vortex because he's a helicopter and hes awesome and he just is.
Predacons
Holy god! It's the Predacons! Maximals, att-, wait, I think I'm in the wrong continuity.
*Razorclaw (A)
*Rampage (E)
*Tantrum (I)
*Divebomb (O)
*Headstrong (U)
*Their Gestalt, Predaking
*And sometimes Gnaw! (Y)
Anyway....uhm...oh yeah, I'm going to go with Divebomb. He can fly!
Technobots
Get Techno! Get Retro! It's suprising that Grimlock made these sons of b- . They consist of:
*Cybertron Defense Scattoershot
*Strafe
*Nosecone
*Afterburner
*Lightspeed
*Grimlock
*And their Gestalt...Computron!
I really don't have a favorite out of these guys, considering I have no connection with them at all, but I'll choose Scattoershot because he's also in Cybertron and hes cool in Cybertron and he was my last my Cybertron figure and I like talking in incomplete sentances and st00f.
Throttlebots
Hey! It's Bumblebee Goldbug and the Throttlebots! They'll surely save the da-(Devastator steps on all 6 of them)
*Bumblebee Goldbug
*Chase
*Searchlight
*Rollbar
*Freeway
*Wide Load
My favorite is either Freeway or Searchlight. I don't know, I can't choose.
Terrorcons
It's Megatron's Decepticon uprising! Quick, Autobots! We must get to the Decepticon space bridge before Megatron can bring the warriors of Cybertron through! Wait, this isn't the Aligned continuity.
Oh yeah, now I remember!
*Hun-Gurreee
*Whippersnapper Rippersnapper
*Blot
*Sinnertwin
*Cutyourthroat
*And their Gestalt...Abominus!
I had many pleasures making fun of their names. Heh, okay, I like Hungry, I mean, Hun-Gurreee, I mean...Oh you get it!
Wow, I think I just went through all the subgroups in the 1980s U.S Transformers cartoon. Or did I miss a few? Oh, god, I don't care, any other subgroups I don't know about and therefore can't have a favorite out of.
Well, my favorite subgroup out of all of them is the Constructicons, and therefore my favorite individual out of all the subgroup 'bots and 'cons is Mixmaster. Mixin' sh-
What are your favorites. I hope you can keep it a shorter post than the OP -.-
I'm tired of typing. I'd love to see what you guys say
