Whats your favorite Autobots or Decepticons team that you've created with your TFs?

I just started collecting, but here's my Autobots team so far:

Optimus Prime (movie Leader, but don't have him yet), Ironhide, '74 Bumble Bee, Skyblast (Placeholder for classics Jetfire), StrongArm (Placeholder for Ratchet), and one undecided member (maybe Arcee or LongArm)

I don't have any Decepticons yet, but here's my planned team: Scorponok, Bonecrusher, Wreckage, leader Brawl, classics Soundwave and Starscream (any version but movie). Basically just a group of mindless killing machines led by Starscream with the help (intelligence) of Soundwave.

Whats your current or favorite teams you've made?

I assumed you were joking but I didnt' want to joke about it just in case you were serious, lol.

I saw my first Barricade this morning at TRU. A came back a couple hours later because the aisle was too full of little kiddies and the pegs were absolutely bare except for a few Wreckages and Scorponoks. It also made me very sad to a see a little child purchase the only Blackout I've ever seen. I hope she'll appreciate it.

But anyway, I'm not a big fan of Barricade. He's not on my list of must haves. His bot mode is pretty sweet looking.

I'm glad that Arcee comes in blue. Not a big fan of the pink, even if it is a fembot.

Keep the teams comin.

oh ok it's just that barricade really does look great both modes but i hope your going to get wreckage as a substitue... that figure is an underdog even though his not in the movie he kicks ass as a decepticon figure... lot of good reviews and commects about him a while ago and he got a lot of surprises...

well i hope your not skipping wreckage as well...

Nope, Wreckage is on my must-have list. He is a just a great fig overall. I love his bot mode, especially the wrist blades. It's ashame he wasn't in the movie, but I fear if he was, he would've been taken out even faster than Bonecrusher.

I'm planning on picking him up next week. He's been on the pegs everywhere I've been to, so I'll have no problem finding him.

Well I only have 4 Movie Autobots and they are Voyager Ratchet, Deluxe 1974 Bumblebee, Deluxe Jazz and Deluxe Protoform Optimus Prime. However If I could involve non transforming figures... Unleashed Bumblebee and Unleashed Optimus Prime.

VS

The Movie Decepticons. The 4 I have selected for them is Voyager Blackout, Deluxe Brawl, Deluxe Bonecrusher and Deluxe Wreckage.

Again if I could involve non transforming figures... Unleashed Megatron

Omega Prime(RID) protects Primus(CYB) with the help of
Rodimus Prime, Wheelie, Swerve, Outback, Brawn, Tailgate,
Siren(G1),Glyph(Botcon) and Bumblebee(movie).

Trying their best to repel the likes of Megatron, Starscream,
Ramjet(classics), Soundwave, Laserbeak, Ravage(TRU reissue),
Deadend(Binaltech), Rumble (Alt), Cruelock(energon), Darkwing(G1), Sky Shadow(Cyb), Blackout and Barricade(movie).

I would name all the minicons attacking and defending Primus,
But I don't know all their names.

Looks like the Cons could take Primus.
Bots may need a little more firepower, especially if the Constucticons show up.

Thats quite the freakin' battle! I don't even know some of the names on both sides.

Any ideas on who you are going to get to help out the Autobots? You should movie Ironhide or classics Jetfire. Those two are big and have some power. It sounds like the Autos don't have much hope right now tho.

You have a pretty awesome collection, my friend. Do you have teams yourself? Are you an Autobots fan or Decepticons?

How is protoform Prime? Not a big fan of them myself because their alt mode looks bad, but what do you think of him?

And do you have any intention of picking up anymore Autobots? Ironhide? Payload? leader Prime? etc.?

SB

CYB Autobots Crosswise and Downshift lead by Jefire.

VS.

CYB Decepticons Lugnutz, Cannonball, and Dark Scorpinok lead by Sideways.

Did you just start collecting? Or do you just like the cybertron figs more than the movie figs?

Man, Jetfire is such a beaut. I wish I owned one.

SB

Autobot Racecar team:

Armada Blurr, Cybertron Hot Shot, Excellion, Override, Movie Bumblebee '08 and Jazz.

My current Decepticon team is Wreckage and Blackout (Scorponok too if you include the mini-figure). But their team is hampered by Megatron's poopy figure, which I don't want to get. I don't want Starscream or Bonecrusher and I can't find Brawl or Barricade.

I have both Arcees. The blue Arcee is a repaint of the Energon scout. The pink one is Deluxe, and more in line wiht the movie aesthetic. I think the pink one is the one with official canon existence in the movie universe. That's why she's on my team.

OP , BB, Ironhide, Ratchet, Jazz vs. Starscream, Blackout, Megatron(soon), bonecrusher, and brawl
just like the movie

Protoform Prime is awesome for the robot mode. I guess Leader Prime should take top priority but Protoform Prime is a very worthy substitute.

I'd say Bumblebee 08 is a must-have for the Autobot team. Either him or Arcee/Jazz. There needs to be at least one warrior on the Autobot team. The best team in my opinion would be:

Leader Prime - Supreme Commander
Ironhide - Weapons Specialist
Ratchet - Medic

The two Voyager figures flank Prime really well, I love how the three of them go together like in the movie.

Then, for Deluxe, you have:

Jazz - Second in command/First Lieutenant, commanding:
Bumblebee 08 - Warrior/Infiltrator
Arcee - Warrior/Infiltrator

I would actually build on Leader Prime as the centre, then Ironhide and Ratchet, before moving onto the Deluxes and choosing which ones I want. For example, I'm not sure if I really want Jazz, but I would love Bumblebee 08 as an extra warrior alongside Arcee.

So in essence, my ideal Autobot team will have: 1 Leader, 2 Voyagers, and as many Deluxes as you want it to have. That way I'm not excluding Longarm or any of the future Autobot deluxes that may come out.
