Cool characters, crap toys

Feel free to discuss anything about any of the thousands of Transformer toys here. Anything from Generation 1 all the way to the soon to be released, the never to be released or the hope to be released is fair game! Want to show off your stuff? Please post your's and see others in the Transformers Collections Forum.

The worst figure I owned was Thunderwing. He had great coverage in the comics but his toy was very 'meh'.

On the other hand, Perceptor had a rather dull character IMHO in the movie, but his toy is great. He's probably got the most articulation out of all the Gen 1 toys. Possibly bar Jetfire.

I guess when Titanium G1 Ultra Magnus comes out, we can remove his name from the CC,CT list.

Oh, I don't know. I had G1 Ultra Magnus as a kid, and I loved playing with him. Sure, he didn't have much posability, but all the different things one could do with him: the shoulder missiles; the chest guard that became a sort of flying drone; the pretending his armor was all damaged and he needed to shed it and could still carry his gun in Optimus Prime mode; the way other transformers could be carried on the trailer; he could punch out my Starscream from a pretty good distance (extending arm :lol: ); and he was durable, he could take hits or be dropped and not break.

All in all, I'd say he was among the more fun G1 toys I ever played with.

I completely agree with you. I still love that figure. I just understand why many people wouldn't.
