Re: What's your favorite three Transformers in your collection & why?
This was my list last year:
1. Buster Prime
2. HA Jazz
3. HFTD SS
This year I've gotten more Tfs, just haven't bothered with an updated list yet. Maybe when I got more time to assess my collection.. should not change much or at all, those were really good figures!

I can't really pick, but posed together to recreate the RotF forest fight, HftD leader Starscream, RotF leader Optimus Prime, and RotF leader Megatron sure make for one impressive display.

It's best if you host the pics somewhere else (photobucket, tumblr, whatever) and then use the Img button from the row of buttons above where you type your forum replies. Press the button, paste in the code from the host site (starts with http://).

Re: What's your favorite three Transformers in your collection & why?
G1 Repugnus, Doublecross and Grotusque. I like my monsters and those guys have awesome bios. They are the original TF misfit team. Next to the Dinobots i guess but you get the idea.
Honourable mention to my G1 Computron. I really like how he was portrayed in the G1 cartoon. I know he's super slow but brains AND brawn are a great combo. Plus he's a misfit combiner as well. In my opinion he's never been truly used to his full capabilities and needs to be re-introduced in some current media. Whether it be comics or T.V show.

Re: What's your favorite three Transformers in your collection & why?
I thought this would be really hard to answer, but really, it's not too hard at all.
G1 Powermaster Prime is my number one favorite, because it was the first Prime toy I ever got as a kid and the one I always wanted. And by extension, because it's all beat up and not suitable for display, its replacement God Ginrai gets to also take the number one spot as a centerpiece of my collection. Sentimental value is high with this one.
Next, probably 20th Anniversary Prime. He was one of the toys that got me back into Transformers and my first higher-priced TF purchase. Not to mention, he's what I always thought a G1 Prime toy should be.
Third, this changes a lot, flavor of the month sort of thing, but right now I'm still impressed with MP Hot Rod. He was always one of my favorite characters (unlike a lot of people), so I was super excited when the mold was revealed. I could only afford the Hasbro version, but that's okay, I missed out on all the design flaw heartbreak.
Honorable mention gets to be Prime FE Bulkhead for sheer engineering genius. I'm amazed every time I transform him!

Re: What's your favorite three Transformers in your collection & why?
wow, a very difficult thing to come up with an answer for. There are some toys I like more than others, which, as simple pieces of plastic, are much better, just because of the characters they represent. Then there are those toys which I love so much despite being based on characters I might not like that much, or characters with little-to-no characterisation in fiction. I'm also not going to list 3rd party items.
As toys themselves, barring character attachement and in no particular order:
Generations Skullgrin - because his big axe is great fun, his head sculpt is pretty cool, his colours work brilliantly and he has a ton of articulation, as well as a somewhat challenging transformation and a nice, fun (if overused) alt mode.
DOTM Human Alliance Basics Sandstorm - I have the repaint too, but the paint job is a little better on this one, and the red on the head makes him stand out a bit better. This is one of the single most fun to play with Transformers I've picked up in years. Even without the human partner figure and the multitude of modes you can set up to have the 2 figures interact, he's got a great robot mode, and a nice tight transform into a pretty decent little buggy. Super-posable and loads of cool little details on the sculpt.
Generations Jazz - a near perfect update of the G1 toy, elevated above the Classics Seeker mold because it's more posable and a much cleaner alt mode. The United version does look nicer, yes, but Hasbro's one is mire than I'd have expected from an Autobot car in terms of transformation, articulation and weapons storage. The added bonus of the speakers, and the beautifully designed weapon storing away so well in car mode make this a clear win.
Might do my favourite TFs based on character as well as toys later. Jazz would be a good pick for that too, except I'm not a huge fan of the character. The toy is spot on to what I'd want from plastic representation of Jazz, but, there're loads of characters I like better.
