ahhhh i didnt do your....

Realistic vehicles. Ground or aircraft. Sadly, it seems like most TFs based on real aircraft, have ten tons of undercarriage, hanging off the alt mode. I'm going to vote ground vehicles, because those seem to bethe ones in my collection, that I mess with, the most.

I traditionally hate sci-fi alt modes, but traditionally the sci-fi alt modes have sucked. Some of the newer sc-fi based TFs have been pretty cool, though.

Ironicly, I like the G1 style mechanical animal alt modes, but I hate organic based alt modes. TFs shouldn't be made out of meat. Most of the Cybertron beasts haven't really apealed to me, though.

Hm... Yeah... Military vehicle is pretty much a mode all on its own. Though would have to be "military ground vehicle" as the majority of TF plane/jet modes are all militray vehicles. >.>;! In fact... All I can think of that aren't to date are the original G1 Airial bots. o_o;

What about armada Jetfire? that was a space shuttle I believe, and astrotrain

Yeah, sure... Don't pay attention to the fact that the poll's first option is "Airplane/Spaceship." :roll:

And yeah... You're still making no case. I said "plane/jet." Why did I say that...? Because alot of people I've known irl consider alot of planes to be "jets." (Even I alot of times call them jets. Jetplanes/Jetfighters/Etc...)

So... Yeah. I was talking gneral "in/on planet" airial vehicles - nothing for space travel. There have been many space vehicles in the TF realm... Alot of which are "futuristic."

Astrotrain was also a triple changer and turned into a train, too. Wonder how you classify triple changers in a poll like this... Pick which alt mode you prefer/preferred...? Hm...

To note, also... I'm actually not voting until I see an option for "ground military vehicle (futuristic or otherwise)" up there. They all tend to be my favs... The rest can kind of go flog themselves imo.

So, what would you think of an evil version of CD Hotshot, in proper camo colors?

Now, if I could just find a CD Hotshot....

have tons of them here if you need help getting one...

What about bases? As a kid metroplex was my most used tf.

I started hating beasts when they first came out and the majority are crapy but some of my all time best tf are beasts (AAOP for one). Imo the cybertron beasts have been ok to good. I like scourge a lot and the basic beasts are also good, eg backstop.

The realistic cars are the easiest to like. Part of it is that you do not need to explain to anyone what its for. Try putting octopunch or that tomato headed monsterbot in your display case and see the reaction from family who drop by :lol:

If my patience wears thin enough, I may take you up on that. This part of the state is still devoid. The local wal-mart is pretty overstocked with the wave with Crosswise, Sideways, Thunderblast, and the Armada remolds. I want to check more stores in Lima, first.

You mean Decepticon Thunderblast? (Autobot version.) If so... Might I have you buy one for me in a couple of weeks or so if she's sold out here by then? Have plans around her...

by **Greyryder** » Thu Mar 02, 2006 12:11 am

Yeah, the Decepticon. Chromia, with her Hasbro name.

by **tintin** » Thu Mar 02, 2006 10:05 pm

Ah yeah...

And my question still stands of possibley having you buy one for me... Would that be ok and all? I'd pay you back, of course... That's why I want to wait a couple of weeks as that's when I get paid again.
