I'm voting those not because G1, but because of the roles they fulfill. Warpath never had a movie toy, Springer reminds me of Incinerator, who was a cool non-screen 2007 toy, and Shockwave was the leader of the drones in the 2007 game, which I love, and he's a movie styled triple changer, with one of his modes being a Howitzer cannon, which is a very unique altmode.
If you don't believe me that I didn't vote because of geewun, just check my post history, lol.

Its kind of like Basic Instinct, but not in a good way...
Goddammit, now I can't unsee it.

I don't mean to "criticize". I'm just very cynical when it comes the fandom anymore. Probably because I'm old as dirt.

It's understandable, we're getting a new comic and it's all G1, next year's movie is called Transformers ONE, we were supposedly getting an Animated Bumblebee and it's G1fied to hell... Those of us who became fans when Transformers was all about diversity of style and innovation are feeling left out by Hasbro. That's why CamaroBee's customs and polls are always such a good thing in this ocean of toxic 80's nostalgia.

First-Aid wrote:Bro, we need to sit and have a cocktail. I grew up with G1, but there is a stagnation in creativity right now with Hasbro. Even the live action movies have gone more G1 and to me, it's beating a dead horse. It's like Gen 2 where we got horrible repaints of old toys and were told they were new. Unfortunately, this time Hasbro has managed to fool people into thinking what's old is new again. We need a new "Beast Wars" type reinvention.

Does it, though? I only discovered the existence of things like He-Man or G.I.Joe from older Transformers fans, and I'm not that young... Those things have been barely alive for decades. Transformers was not barely alive, it oscillated from a constant influx of new fans and being a proper mainstream thing.Jelze Bunnycat wrote:And we all know how that went initially before the show aired.Besides, the whole "reinventing the wheel" approach, as much as I dislike it, seems to be working for other toylines..

I didn't vote for either of these guys through the whole tournament. Going to have to vote for which one I dislike least.![]()
