For example, Unicron, Primus, movie Megatron.

Movie Prime is quite a classical, typical design. Earthen truck.

There are also unusual alt modes. Bonecrusher is one, Cybertron Galvatron's Batmobile is another.

Do you like Cybertron Optimus Prime's unique firetruck and jet or just the normal truck of movie Prime?

Opinions plz. I for one appreciate the very alien look of movie Megatron and his alt. mode.

def. like unique designs.
the minicons for example have a lot of unique ones.
almost as if they are experiments or something

firetruck
???
starts with "f" and ends with "uck"

i wish megatron's head would be hidden in alt mode, but it is cool. i like traditional AND unique designs, for different reasons.

****
did that work?

Only if "unique" does not eaqual "crap".

I don't really like Movie Megatron's design. Especially on the toy. Death Star Vader is looking sweet. Cybertron Unicron is also neat, although he could use a bit more paint apps.

Change is almost always good.

Different is often good, so long as the design works and the mold is good.

I think it's an old issue! I'm not sure if it's there as a joke or a bug in the code caused by the word beginning with 'f' and ending with 'uck', or even if it started off as a bug and has become a long-running joke...

Anyway, I like unique designs. I like my Earth vehicles, too, but I certainly enjoy Unicron, etc. I even like the lens-faces of Dreadwing/Dreadwind (I forget) and Swindle. Oddly, I'm also really fond of G1 Kup's design, even though his design is so simple it probably rests at the other end of the spectrum!

I like unique designs. But NOT Cybertronian modes.

I'm not sure how there can be any answer to the question other than "it depends if they're good." As they're unique, you can only judge on a case by case basis.
