Both Primes have problems in the size department for me. Leader class simply overshadows any and all other toys. True, he's one of the smallest leader-sized figures in robot mode, but the others turn into firetrucks, not into a semi cab.

Voyager prime is just too small. Ambulances do not stand windshield-to-windshield with semi trucks, no matter what the toys say.

But, seeing as how this is about favorite movie toy, and not complaining, I have to say.... '70's Bumblebee right now. When you push his windshield/doors far enough forward to lock in place, they look like actual wings like they should, instead of kibble.

Does Leader Prime 2007 overshadow Cybertron Optimus Prime? I was under the impression that Galaxy Convoy was much bigger and would overshadow all other Prime toys except MP Prime.

08 Bumblebee blows every other movie figure out of the water.
(well maybe not Ironhide)

The detailing is less than that of Ironhide, and articulation is also less than Leader Prime, but he looks great in both modes, even with slightly dodgy paint apps. He has 3 different sections that automorph well, his transformation is not complex, yet is not as easy as you would first think either.

Best of all he is priced reasonably well, and has that "pick up and play with over and over again" vibe that few of the movie figures have.

You are ALL wrong!!!

Everyone knows it is SCORPUNOK that is the BEST of the BEST!!!

Just kidding.

For me, it's a tossup between Robovision Prime, 08 BB, and Barricade. They're ALL good really...except for poor Scorpy.

You think? For me the movie line is basically over... only a couple more figures to go and then it'll be time for all the "animated" stuff...

Still got my fingers crossed for a Voyager (or bigger) Bonecrusher... but it probably won't happen. I never get the figures I want to see... maybe I should just become a hardcore G1 purist-fanatic, they seem to always get what they want...

They seemed to be pretty interested in making Bonecrusher a larger class when I talked to the good folks at Botcon. I'm sure we'll see Bonecrusher bigger and with better arms.
