which transformers do you appreciate the most in their alternate mode? i leave all my binatech figures in their vehicle modes because they aren't that impressive in robot mode because of their height and sizes.

You should edit your posts instead of double-posting.

I alternate a lot of my TFs from mode to mode when I feel like it. Some of my Alts stay in vehicle mode because I already have another version of the figure in bot mode, it adds variety to my display.

I really like the alt modes for MP Megatron & Starscream, but the robot modes are just too impressive not to show. When I get the G1 versions I'll probably have them in alt mode.

I have to say rid prime amd ultra magnus because prime looks so much like a really fire truck it is scary and ultra magnus is a amazing looking car carrier in that series. The othe one that I have to say is pretty amazing is black convey (scourge) from the same series his tanker truck mode is amazing especial the japanies version.

By default, Alternator Grimlock because he's a big pain in da arse to transform to robot.

Scorponok seems the best to me. But then again there are realy nice cars that look nice, other than that I can't say all my Transformers are in Robot mode!

G1 Scorponok is the badassness in Scorpion mode.

But I still display him, like all my TFs, in ROBOT mode.

Movie Scorponok simply because he bot mode is horrid.

Goes for G1 Ironhide too.

Mp-o3 Starscream looks good in both modes :grin:

Beast Wars Bonecrusher.

Because nothing is cooler then a transforming Buffalo (American Bison).

Currently, Classics Grimlock. Always Grimlock.

But that's a given, isn't it ?

Yeah, Classics Grimlock is the ONLY transformer I leave in alt mode... only because his bot mode is a total mess.

Oh yeah and movie scorpinok too but he doesn't count... his bot mode is dead to me(but the alt is great).

2007 Leader Prime, although I don't keep him in truck mode. 2007 Skyblast redeco, his plane is better than his robot mode IMO.

I'm looking forward to getting some Cybertron figures, most of them Autobots. Their vehicle modes look slick (the racers)

Well, the one that should NEVER be converted to 'robot' mode is Armada Sideswipe...

Holy crap.

Movie Leader Prime and Barricade are two whose vehicle modes I really like. Alternator Mirage also gets Awesome Points just because that is such an amazing car. Just about any of the first wave of G1 figures have great alt modes, but Megatron gets special mention here. He was almost as fun to play around with in gun mode(back when you could play with things like that) as he was in robot mode.

Cybertron Scourge. I'm surprised I managed to resist getting Cryo Scourge, honestly, given the general awesomenes of the dragon mode and the fact that icy themes appeal to me.
