I prefer Silverstreak for the Subaru's
I prefer Meister for the Mazda's (Shockwave is bloody good too)
I prefer Hot Rod for the Ford GT
I prefer Hound for the Jeep's
I prefer Dead End for the Viper's

Cannot comment on the Mustang's as I do not own any of them.

My favs:

Name/Mold

Shockblast (RX-8 )
Deadend (Viper)
Wheeljack (Mustang)
Rodimus (Ford GT)

...and for most original, hands down RAVAGE XK. The Jag mold is just so freakin' sweet 8)

If I had to choose ONE fav it would actually probably be the Jag mold.

So no one likes smokscreen? I like him alot, though I'm torn between shockblast and meister, so I dont know which one to buy. Which one should i get and why?

Tracks & Hound are very close to their G1 counterparts in both modes so they are probably my favorites.

...ok they are both great, i think it just boils down to which character/faction you prefer.(i'm speaking from a binaltech perspective if it matters)

My favorites of each mold:

Dead End (Dodge Viper, racing stripes)
Prowl (Acura RSX, police look)
Repro'd Jazz (Mazda RX8, perfect G1 look)
Battle Ravage (Chevy Corvette, cuz of his cat head)
Hound (Jeep Wrangler, green color wins)
Mirage (Ford GT, racing stripes again)
Windcharger (Honda S2000, removable hardtop rules)
Wheeljack (Ford Mustang GT, blue racing stripes on white body, THIS IS MY FAVORITE)
Nemesis Prime (Dodge Ram SRT-10, black looks better on this mold)
Smokescreen (Subaru Impreza WRX, very nice rally racing application)

Cheers!

I think the Mazda mold is the best. Great detailing and poseability.

Smokescreen or Hot Rod.

I'm hoping to see an Alt Insecticon. I saw photos of a custom Kickback (built from movie Dropkick - a pickup) at another TF site and was amazed.

Out of the ones I own, I like:

Tracks (Corvette)
Battle Ravage (Corvette)
Swerve (Corvette)
Sunstreaker (Viper)
Silverstreak (Impreza)

Optimus is ok, but not my favorite by a long shot. My favorite is probably Swerve or Streaker. The colors just fit both molds well.

Grimlock and Wheeljack look great, but are miserable to transform.

Deadend and Sunstreaker are actually pretty good vipers.

The Jeeps are good too.

And, of course, Mirage/Rodimus.

I'd love to have Ravage, myself. Very unique.
