Who is your favourite deluxe, voyager, and leader class figure from ROTF.

For me it is:

deluxe skids and mudflap combo (ice cream truck)

voyager Starscream

leader Optimus Prime

well...

that is a difficult question: not every toy has arrived at the stores yet.

thus far... hmmm?

Swerve (Sideswipe repaint)
&
Dune Runner
&
Voyager Megatron
&
Ransack
&
we'll see

Leader OP...
Swerve / Sideswipe Deluxe class...
Voyager Long Haul...
Ejector...
Legends 'Swipe...

That is, of the ones I currently own.

Jolt
Sideswipe
Ransack
Ejector
Jetfire
Prime

For me its EZ Devesator and my Bludgeon but getting Buster Prime soon so that will be my favourite I think..

I'll list my favourite RotF figures that I currently possess and are molds unique to the RotF toyline:

Deluxe - Thrust(I love the Breakaway mold and Thrust's colour scheme)

Voyager - Stratosphere(I'm a fan of this unique design)

Leader - Optimus Prime(A breakthrough of Transformers toy design)

Leader Prime is by far the best figure in the line.

Voyager Megatron as he and Mixmaster are the only two ROTF Voyagers I own. Oh wait, I own Longhaul too... hmmm I change it to Longhaul.

HA is Bumblebee is a no brainer. Skids is a pretty close second though.

Deluxe would probably have to be Thrust.

Scout is Dune Runner fo' sho'

Legends... hmm tough one... I'd say Sparkcrusher because I love the Warpath mould.

Gift Set figure / Exlusive - Hoist. Best repaint ever.

I won't count figures that aren't out and or that I don't own yet or Mindwipe, Lockdown, Skystalker, Leader Starscream, HA Mudflap and Legends Devastator would be on that map.

It wouldn't be fair for the Leader Screamer, HA Barricade or Recon Ironhide, since they're not even released yet, but here's my list of currently available favorites:

LEADER: OP (who else?)

VOVAGER: Long Haul/Starscream (tied, due to the latter's massive improvement over the 2007 version)

DELUXE: Breakaway/Sideswipe (tied)

HUMAN ALLIANCE: Bumblebee

SCOUT: Duner Runner (would've been tied with Sonar if he's already available)

Legnds Devastator, far, far superior to that PlaySkool Gobot thing they had the audacity to charge £100 for!

Preview BB
Sideswipe
Longhaul
Starscream

Scout - Ransack

Deluxe - Cannon Bumblebee

Voyager - Bludgeon (tank-murai)

Leader Optimus- even though I took him back because I thaught that the Buster Optimus was coming out in the US, Hasbro lies.

Voyager Megatron definately! I got him saturday, hes my fave TF ever! Well, eventhough Leader prime is better...I DONT HAVE HIM ANYMORE!

Sideswipe- Even though mines leg is loose as crap just like my faith is in Hasbro now that they lied to me about Optimus.

HA Bumblebee- I took him back too, because he was broken and I needed the $ for the ROTF DVD, just as I took back Optimus.

Leader Megatron he is almost as awesome as Leader Optimus.

So, as you see, every thing falls back on Optimus, and Ill never forgive myself...at least Christmas is commin up

Delux: Sideways
Voyager: the only one I've bought is Skywarp. He required lots of modifications before I liked him.
Leader: Prime

Favourite RTOF figure overall is HABB.

Scout: Dirt Boss, love the forklift mode and prong weapons in robot mode.

Deluxe: Robot Replicas Ratchet, not sure if it counts as a deluxe.

Voyager: Stratosphere, and I got him for half price.

I haven't gotten much from this set yet, three deluxe figures, of which Soundwave was surprisingly my least favorite.

I also have Dead End and Gears, of which Dead End rules.

His vehicle mode is the coolest thing ever, and he looks a lot like an Insecticon in robot mode. He's really cool

Even with the back kibble, HA Sideswipe.

Deluxe Sideswipe/Swerve.

Leader Prime-That figure is just great in EVERY way.

Except those goddamn red tabs on the chest.

He would be the best figure ever if not for those.

Don't forget the arm blade gimmicks.

This is a tough call, it's been a great toyline.

Leader: Optimus, no question
Voyager: Mixmaster with Starscream being a close second.
Deluxe: this is hard to call, I'll give it to Arcee since I spent 3 months hunting her down. After all that anticipation I wasn't disappointed which has to count for something.

My opinion is


Leader: Optimus Prime hands down!

Voyager: Starscream soon to be replaced by Nebular Starscream (AKA Acid Storm). Long Haul & Mixmaster would be next in line after SS.

Deluxe: Bludgeon, Thrust and Arcee


Cant wait for E-lita 1, so the girls can combine!!!

I can live with that, actually. I almost always have them deployed, so it isn't a big deal.

Hehe, I'm the opposite. I don't have problems with the red tabs on the chest but I can do without the arm blades.
