It is a simple question I want to know which transformer they could not possible improve on no matter how hard they try.

Given the amount of repaints I don't think they've ever truly broken molds. :lol:

That being said, there's quite a few that I feel can't get much better, Cybertron Optimus Prime, Armada Bendy Prime, Classics Seekers, G1 Omega Supreme.

Bloody hell if I sat and thought about it it'd be a long list.

G1 Inferno cannot be improved on.

Cybertron Prime, TM2 Megatron and Cybertron Red Alert are all about as good as they can be as well.

Ya know ... I always thought G1 Grimlock was an exceptional toy when I was a kid. I never owned him, but my friend did.

After opening my Encore Prime, Megs, Soundwave and SS ... I gotta wonder if I would still feel the same way. Todays molds are just fantastic in commparison.

I'll agree with the classics seekers, there's not a thing that I would want to change on them. Now, if they all had cone heads like Ramjet ... yeah I'd change that. Beings it's just him with the cone head, it makes for an interesting difference to his other seeker counterparts.

Masterpiece Optimus Prime is the Bomb Diggity!!! you can't get better then that.... he's won several awards and is just the baddest bot ever!!!

Cybertron Optimus gets another vote from me, and oh yeah.....

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that Reborn Optimus Primal is the best ever... gimmicks not withstanding, I was always more impressed with his regular abilities as seen in the cartoon, who cares about the split hand gun thingy, or the weird robotic monkey face... the accuracy and paint applications is perfect.. they broke the mold with him..

Those toys were real classics.

Air Defense Mini-con team. Been remolded too many times, no way they're doing it again.

I would have to say the original takara fortress maximus not the remakes once you see this your never really the same.

Sure they can. They could add articulation to the hips and knees, give the head some articulation, and add more articulation to the elbows. Torso twisting would be nice too. :grin:
