In that case, it's gotta be Wheelie. :P

Um, any of the Classics, MP Prime, Hybrid Prime, um... really, you'd be best off browsing the net and seeing what takes your fancy.

Just curious, but do you have a mental disorder that prevents you from making a decision on your own? Search the picture galleries here or search the web and just buy what you like.

Geez how many mold repaints of that 2nd Arcee are they going to make? I've got one that's white/black/pink, and I know I've seen like 3 others.

All these repaints are kind of annoying.

Cybertron Shortround is good and cheap.

Classics Jetfire is one of the most comic-accurate toys out there.

G1 Trypticon is lots of fun.

Do you have an MP or Anniversary Optimus Prime to act as a counterpoint to your forthcoming MP Megatron?

Armada Unicron is a fun toy, too.

Transmetal Tarantulas is quite a show-accurate toy.

It really depends on what you're looking for.

Counting the two from the original line, two from the Target movie scout assistant line, and then two more a la Universe packaging at Family Dollars, I've seen a total of six different paint jobs on that mold. Wee bit excessive, if you ask me.

But answer the original questions...

I'll limit my answers down to pretty much what you see at retail these days...

Any classic figures you might see that Wal-Mart has stuck back out in clearance aisles. Definately Mirage and Jetfire. Those two have got to be some of my favorites.

I don't have them all, but the Cybertron scouts I do have are really neat little figures, and for only $7 a pop, I don't think you can go wrong. Here at Seibertron, I've seen the highest vote go to Armorhide, but personally so far, Scrapmetal is my favorite, hands-down. I'm avoiding Backstop like its the plague, though. Anything that "shoots" and/or "rams" you from its stomach region just looks weird to me. <-- Personal opinion.

As for movie figures... Again, I'm personally avoiding anything with a gut attack like the drones, but for must-haves, Leader Prime totally rules. I'd say the same thing for Leader Megs, because I like him personally, but if I said that I think everyone here might key my car. :lol: Longarm is a really decent looking guy, but turning him back into a truck is as much fun as hanging out with your ex-girlfriend's new boyfriend. Even though Bonecrusher is really fugly, I think he's a great figure overall. Actually, pretty much any movie figure but deluxe Brawl gets my vote. Oh, and please, I beg of you: Give Scorpinok a chance...

Classics Ramjet is nice as well (if you can find one).

Oh I almost forgot, ENOUGH OF THE NEGATIVE COMMENTS AND INSULTS.
