It's quite surprising that there's only one character vote, could they not think of a "Best something" category for this year?

Favorite Character: Nautica

Favorite Toy: Power of the Primes Legends Slash

I’m pretty sure the only Hasbro figures I’ve bought this year that came out this year are Beachcomber and Slash lol.

Nominee - Tarantulas

Toy: MP44 - Megatron

I only buy the Masterpiece line. However, all of those I would have thought of, MP Primal, MP-36 Megatron et al all came out last year, apparently?

Doesn't time fly....

Best toy: Studio Series Starscream.

POTP Blackwing for the toy even though its a combiner limb the robot mode looks fantastic best version of Darkwing since G1
character nomination i think can go to wingblade there has been so much of her lately

by **Stealth Claw** » Wed Jun 13, 2018 8:39 am

My vote would go to either beast wars Tarantulas or Ratrap.

Toy wise I'd say potp grimlock.

Mine would have to be Ravage (come on, Cosmos is in the HoF!). Very important roles in a lot of continuities with the odd exception being G1 and his non-speaking role.

Toys: mp-41 if we can include Takara, movie Thundercracker if not. Seriously, this is a really awful year for Hasbro with PotP being short (wave 1 was released in 2017), very limited kid's releases (2 cyberverse, 2 rid, 3 rescue, all terrible). No MP releases, which leaves me looking at the movie toys, which I won't buy with a few exceptions. Therefore I'm going the movie Thundercracker (repaint of Nitro Zeus).

Yes, thank you!

If anyone that voted for a Takara Tomy product wants to revote, please feel free.

I'm going to assume that PotP wave 1 counts as "2018" even though it was released in late 2017 - not that anything has enough votes to matter in this case, just putting that out there.

Character: Springer
RUNNER UP- Thundercracker
RUNNERS UP - Buster, DOC, BOB

Toy of the Year: POTP Elita One

CHaracter:

Overlord: He's just stood out as a great Villian character because of the IDW work, in ways that Megatron even haven't.

Nautica: Probably my favorite of the author made characters, maybe in part because she wasn't forced on us like Windblade.

Springer. Because Springer.

Runner up: Rung, but hes prominant for not being Prominent.

Toys: Battletrap

Gee, looks tough. Particularly for a neophyte like me... Never done this before, but here goes.

I think G1 Elita One should get in there as far as the favorite character. Honestly, for the character nomination, I've grown to like her a lot (I mean my username is a play-off for goodness sake) and I think she's deserves a slot (Also I think she and Prime would like to spend some more time together after all these long separations). She may not have much of a running chance, but I want to suggest her anyway.
As far as toys go, I'm sorry to say, I'm a new collector, but I do happen to really enjoy the Generations Skywarp. I like the feel and the look. Easy to transform unlike all the Live action and TFS: Prime based ones which take forever to actually get back and forth.

First of all, welcome to the boards! Just a warning, we're all crazy, but come on in and make yourself at home!

Elita is certainly a great choice. You are more than welcome to pick two more if you would like. Character polls are open to up to 3 choices.

Welcome to the boards!

As for your favorite toy, for this poll it needs to be a Hasbro figure coming out this year, so unfortunately Skywarp cannot make that cut. Which one are you talking about? legends, deluxe, or leader?

by **Elitabeth-1** » Wed Jun 27, 2018 7:19 am

Got it! Umm, I am looking forward to the POP Predaking that I can't find listings for anywhere. Either Walmart is slow in getting stuff in or they just don't carry the ones I'm looking for. Amazon too. The Power of the Primes Predaking is pretty awesome looking!

Not sure, the Boss already counted them up and sent them in a week ago, as the deadline was last week I believe. May have been simply the first name given, I'm not sure
