RTS Leader Battle Blades Optimus. I used to have the original movie Optimus (unfortunately had to sell it) and I wanted to replace it. This one PALES in comparison. It has cheap looking plastic, the transformation changes they made seem unnecessary, very loose and just doesn't want to stay together correctly in either robot or vehicle mode. I'll try to go thru it and get some of the loose stuff tightened up but the only thing good about it is I should be able to combine him with leader Jetfire.

edit. I guess it's HFTD BB Optimus but I though it was RTS. Threw the box away so please forgive me.

The first one I ever got and then turned around and didn't like was G1 Rachet way back when. I just didn't dig it at all. The las t one I bought and didn't like was Classics Astrotrain.

The best movie Transfomer toy is scorponok although he has a few minor issues, he is best value for money toy and looks awesome in "monster mode"

The only Toy I have disliked currently were the G2 Gobots I dislike the toys as they are too small and are just lumps of plastic.

ROTF Leader Megatron. Actually, a part of me knew he was going to be clunky. I bought him anyway. His tank mode is just a large awkward mess, and his robot mode isn't too great either. For that size, there's no excuse for not having arms with elbows.

ROTF Chromia -__- I like Chromia as a character, but her toy was horrific. Works fine as a bike, but you can't transform her... well, technically you can, but her chest/shoulders refuse to clip together no matter how hard you press. It makes her look like someone sliced her in half.

I think they fixed that on the Elita-1 repaint. There's an extra piece of plastic that holds the chest together better.

Generations Thrust. I only knew of his existence when he arrived in a set along with the Wave 1 WFC figs, so I had no idea how he looked in bot mode [strangely, it never occurred to me to look at the back of the package.]

Seeing that he looked nice in alt mode, I picked him up along with WFC OP, Bee and Drift. But when I transformed him for the first time, it was a major letdown. Short arms and legs, and a pair of overly large nul-rays that greatly limits the range of motion in his arms. While the Seekers still look proportionate due to their normal sized heads, Thrust's conehead makes him look too short and stubby.

Classics Octane. One of the only Classics figures I truly don't like. I also don't like the deluxe classics Prime from the two-pack but I did not think it was "awsome" lol when I first saw it.

Thx for that skywarped_128 i was gonna buy him from sainsburys but stopped due to a lack of funds. Buying transformers is very expensive and now more so Due to the recession.

Has any1 got the reissued predaking?

I'm a big Starscream fan. ALL versions.

I was pretty exited when I finally received my DotM Target Exclusive Voyager Starscream. I knew it was a RotF repaint. I never had the Voyager of RotF. The Leader is a Masterpiece after all. But the DotM repaint seemed fine.

WHAT A PIECE OF ****! #-o

First, contrary to the youtube review, the cockpit and his eyes are made of PLAIN pastic. Not transparent. WTF?

Then, his elbows bend the wrong way.

But the worst offender: His hands are sticking out of his ass in jet mode! The manual clearly state that you can fold them inside, but for some retarded reason, that point of essensial engineering was omited.

This is the first time ever that a transformers actually made me angry.

Ya didnt like the g1 ratchet.

Your lucky that actually got astrotrain. I would have done anything to get one back when it was out.

I don't collect Movie-line toy, and G1 is...well G1, so I have to say one I was really disappointed was Henkei Classics Prowl. Doesn't like to stand well, ugly arms, head is kinda meh, and he paint on the doors smudges. Well, at least it has nice Chrome.

There's a variant with translucent plastic. You just didn't get that one.

What do you think of his hands sticking out of the jetmode's ass?

I recently got Generations Scourge...
I bought it for £18, took it home and had a good long look at it and realised i hated it for some reason.

I loath the black goatee, the hovercraft mode looks stupid in my view. It might be cause i have the botcon scourge which is awesome, but this figure sucked so much i attempted to sell him on EBay and no one wanted him...

I think the hands are sticking out of his ass because he knows he's a piece of crap and he wants to pick some of it out of his rear end :SICK:

Cybertron Smokescreen repaint. That thing is a major pain to transform because of his side doors.
