Cheetor from BW
way too obsessed with him self, like in the ep. The Web, he disobeys orders not once but twice, than he does so again in the very next episode. Sure Sunstreaker in G1 was rather vain and into himself but I would too if I was a lambo lol.

Wheelie
do I need any explination?

I never liked blur. Especially on tv as opposed to the moview. He just gives me headaches.

Blurr always annoyed me, as well, but to be truthful it was more the writing in general than any one TF that irritated me (in the cartoon, the comics were different).

Most any TF that had a 'cute' or 'funny' speech impediment.

That's not to say they wouldn't have been salvageable, though. I prefer Comic Grimlock over Cartoon Grimlock any day of the week, and Wheelie might have actually been tolerable if they had portrayed him like he was in the Marvel storybook that Norem painted.

The reissue Wheelie is better than the org. Here is my list.

The Gen One Megatron. Since the toy was from the Micoman toy line, It did not look like anything at all like the Megs in the Gen One Cartoon. I am gald that MP-05 Megs is closer to the cartoon one.

Gen One Optimus Prime. Like Megs Prime was from another toy line, the Diaclone line. The toy back was exposed. The 20th MP version of Prime is better. More cartoon accurate.

Gen One Bumblebee. Not very well bulit. Flimsy.

The Hasbro version of Ginrai AKA Powermaster Prime. They did not included the secondary trailer with the toy. They did corrected when they released a second time.

Machine Wars Thunderclash (AKA Prime in the US) The transformation was too stiff.

Constructicons Classics. The alt forms are to bulky.

Metroplex Superlink Terrible alt form.

The Actionmasters nuff said

I wasn't to fond of the Beast Wars toys.

Nightbeat. Why did Hasbro repaint the first "female" TF toy?

Warpath, Seaspray, basically all speech impediment Transformers that are not Insecticons, BW Cheetor, Rattrap and Quickstrike, Optimus Prime, most of the characters who possess intelligence low enough to only manage to speak in the third person, except Waspinator, Gears, Bumblebee, Wheelie and Blur, A-Demolisher, all versions of Hot Shot, Beachcomber, Cosmos with his bad Peter Lorry voice, a lot really. That's why I love the big character setup of Transformers, because for each of these I may hate there are plenty of others to love.

Quickstrike from Beast Wars. He's just not a good character.

Cartoon Grimlock is hilarious

Daniel: Where are we?
Grimlock: Not Cybertron, California maybe?

i've got to agree, but his comic incarnation was better!
to be honest Brawn was the one that p**sed me off the most, he was so full of himself!

Wheelie. Do I need to explain why? Next, Warpath. The whole thing of the sound effects was from watching too much Batman. I never liked Seaspray either. The whole talking w/an Aquatic accent was too much. Brawn, yes, was very full of himself. I hated "Microbots" where he continually persecuted Perceptor. Hated it. And then there was Cartoon Galvatron. Or Insane Galvatron if you will. The voice Welker gave him was too high & shrill for my tastes. But whatever.

Wheelie, Huffer, and Gears...I can't stand ANY of them! :BOOM:

Prowl: Hardly did anything in the show, and came off as a pompous ass in the Marvel comic (at least, to me)

Wheelie: Just...stop talking. Please.

Warpath: You, too.

Seaspray: And you.

Beachcomber: I have a thing about hippies. Ugh.

Marvel comics Megatron: It's like the cartoon version, only weaker, with a black head, zero charisma, and a bit too much crazy.

Yeah, Marvel Megatron was TOO insane, like almost to the point of not making any sense at all.

But that was the point!! Oh, and Galvatron is fantastic in any incarnation :D

And come on, people, let's be more original than "Wheelie" every other post...

My least favourite characters (get ready for "gee-wunners" to start wetting themselves in horror) are basically most of the Year 1 and 2 characters. Simply because - in both cartoon and comic - they had so little to do, and barely exhibited any real "character" at all. How can you "like" Trailbreaker, when the poor guy didn't get to do anything except stand around!?! They all had great potential, but besides a handful (Prime, Bumblebee, Ratchet etc) they all got a raw deal on the personality front...

Series 3 of the cartoon corrected these errors by primarily focusing on a smaller core cast.

But personally, I'm a Marvel UK guy through & through anyway.

Groove's a loser, just like Nosecone. Those guys ruin their gestalt teams. All the humans were a pain in the rear end too.

:-B OK a litle hitory lesson:
Hasbro boght the Diacloens and Micromens and what thernames are for the US market. Then they decided to put them into one toyline and to promote the toyline they asked Marvel to make a comic series and a cartoon series (wich they later produced), so they formed 2 teams renamed and recolered the carakters (thats wy the japanes cale Prime convoy) and did a litle redesigning to make them posible to anamate and bring to comics. :-B
Guess how owened the original Diaclones and the rest of the bots that came out in the 1970's?... yess TAKARA! :)

Ops almoest forgot to say who I hate. All of those pesky litle bloody crapy Minicons and the Cyberplanet keys!
And G1 Hod Rod or Rodimus, and the Transformers from Armada and Cybertron I mean they don't look that bad but I just hated toes series just raping Transformers, but maybe I'm wrong cos Armada suked big time in Germany and so Cybertron just came out and toes are the first toyes in Germany since Armada.

G1 Starscream.

He had a terrible voice, and was one-sided to the point that 99% of the things he did was attempt to tkae over the Decepticons. That's why the Combaticons exist, even.

I tend to hate him more when fangirls attempt at giving reasons why he's "Beautiful" "Has a lovely voice" and **** like that.

Skywarp was cooler, anyway, and had a better color scheme.
