One of the name choices is "Windblade", and two of the names begin with "Autobot". Looks like they've already decided it's an Autobot with a plane or copter alt mode.

Voting female, and hoping to convince other people to vote female. There's so few female Transformers as is, and he or she is going to end up in the IDW comics, where the only female transformer is Arcee, and only because of a Jhiaxus experiment!

definitely voting female. Assuming from the Autobot prefix on a few of the names that it was definitely a bot that won the last poll? :-(

Still, if we get a new fembot it'd be nice to not have a femme fatale bad guy, and instead maybe get an amazonian type? Brienne from Game Of Thrones as a TF?

I wouldn't mind a female combat medic, assuming that First Aid in MTMTE may or may not already be female.

A bodyguard would also be cool.

So i went Female from Kaon, as a close quarters combat specialist. Defiantly want a fembot, but i couldn't decide between the former, or a doc-bot.

Cripes. Cashotron? Let's try to take this seriously, okay?

Very cool to see all the cities listed. I'd love to see a decent map of them all. there are so many now, it's hard to keep them all straight.

I will be very pleased if it turns out to be a female Transformer. Granted, I feel that it should have been a Decepticon, rather than Autobot. Also nice to see it will be a flier.

seeing as how there is autobot in two of those names i guess thats the faction that won, just what we need another autobot. Oh and great job spoiling part of the outcome hasbro.

I'm not expecting my choices to be the ones chosen. I'm really pulling for a female Decepticon medic from Kaon. How could would that be?

And as I pointed out above, the fact that one of the names is "Windblade" pretty much guarantees it's a helicopter or plane.

I went with:

Autobot Wraith
Female
Iacon
Recon

I think a stealthy, ghostlike fem-bot with a needler type rifle would make a great recon bot. Think a TF version of a Starcraft Ghost.

I want to see Charon, female, and either bodyguard or telepath cause we really don't see those things that much in Transformers.

If "female" wins (and fingers crossed it does), then I really hope "motorcycle" didn't win. It'd be neat to see something big and strong and "for boys" like a construction vehicle or a tank be used for a female Transformer.

Eclipse makes me think Spaceship, Charon boat, and Cashtron armored bank truck. *shrugs* But yeah, obvious the Bots won. Seems like they could've kept the mystery by simply leaving "Autobot" out of those two names, but I guess legally they have to include them even in this case.

Telepath?! I dunno, to me that word shouldn't belong in the Transformers universe.

They're getting very specific with this poll. If they ask for any more input, surely they'll be asking us to submit our own designs.

Me? I went with Windblade, female, Kalis and recon.

I'm starting to think I'm going to be really bummed with the character that'll result from these polls. I've spent far too much time envisioning the sum of the options I've been voting for. :-(

So, we clearly know it will be a

. So, we can pick gender now?

FEMALE ALL THE WAY!

Also, I want her to be a burly bodyguard. The wasp-like-ninja slot is already filled with Prime<s Arcee. GIMME SOME BIG MAMMA! :DANCE:

This is almost exactly what I voted, just different origin. The moment I saw the name Wraith and the Recon option the SC Ghost is exactly what popped into my head. :grin:

I'm glad other people have the same idea, I sincerely hope this one wins! I did say Telepath though, just because why not? :lol:

How does a Transformer Telepath you ask? Why Mass Effect of course!

ENOUGH WITH THE WAIF GIRL!

WANNA BIG MAMMA TANK WITH SUSPENTION EQUIPED BOOBIES! :HEADHURTS:

No, seriously. The only "big mamma" female TF I remember is what's-her-name vehicon in the Beast Machine cartoon. And that may be only in the toon as a "need to have more females".
I really want a female bot, designed to be female from the ground up, to be BIG and POWERFUL for once.

Hopefully those Autobot names are nothing more than a ruse, or legal placeholders. I'm sure they could just as easily be changed to 'Con names, and I'm hoping Hasbro aren't dense enough to be giving the game away already.

Honestly, I won't mind what the result is, so long as it's something different; i.e. not an Autobot car.

I went with:

Windblade (Easily the coolest name on offer)
Female (For rarity value)
Kaon (Like she was a defector)
Combat Medic (Gotta love a fighting doctor)

by **MINDVVIPE** » Fri May 10, 2013 6:39 pm

Voted Charon, Female (duh, we need more females), Kaon, close combat, so she doesn't get stuck with some oversized guns that don't fit (well) anywhere.
