Its time to find out which of all the TFs you own is truly your holy grail, greatest treasure.. But to do this, you must become a pretender, what does this mean? This means when considering this question, the rules are as follows-
(1.) Only one TF can be chosen, and you must already own said TF.. That means TFs you want and dont have, do not count.. (and minicons with said TF don't count, so if your one choice came with a minicon, or head/target/power masters partner/ or trailer/tapes)Thats fine and counts as one TF
(2.) You must pretend that said TF has no money value, is worth zero/nothing in any place around the world.. Keeping it MISB forever is fine, but it will never be worth anything.
(3.) You must pretend that anyone can have this TF for free, at any time.. Pretend you got it for free, and if you lose it, you could get it again for free, anytime..
Now with these rules, its time to decide which single TF you own is truly your holy grail.. Since its worth nothing, that takes away your most expensive easily getting the nod for your choice.. Since anyone can have it at anytime, including you if you lost it, that takes away the hardest to find in your collection getting the nod for your choice.. Now it comes down to this- Which single TF of your collection means the most to you when you only look at how much you enjoy looking at it/posing it, and transforming playing with it.. This will tell you what the true Holy Grail to your heart & soul is of your collection.. The one that truly "means" the most to you..
My choice from my collection is G1 Soundwave, love the look, love to transform him.. Dont care its G1 easy to transform.. Even if he was worth nothing, he brings me the most joy to have..
Become a pretender, whats your choice?

You could have saved yourself, and us, a lot of time by just asking "What's your favorite TF in your collection?"

Well Guyincognito you could have saved yourself from looking ignorant and rude by simply using your brain.. If I had just asked whats your fav TF in your collection.. Many would choose the most valuable, or hardest to obtain.. Its not rocket science, brainmaster.. There was more to the question..

MP Grimlock, nicely combines his cartoon and comic personas and the best version of my favourite character.
Also I got him in Singapore whilst on holiday, and haggled with the shopkeeper to get a really good deal.

The little figure that came with BTA Sunstreaker. I love RiD, so I was super happy to get a toy of one of the most important characters to the series.

Car Robots Black Convoy. I've never kept it in the best of shape, but I just love how it looks. Even though it's a gutted repaint of another Optimus I feel like it's the definitive version of the mold.

Wow, great question and qualifiers...
About 10 jump to mind (Predaking, G1 Devs + CrazyDevy upgrades, Cyb. leader Convoy, etc), but without any monetary value or limitedness, based on just enjoyment of transformation, personal like of aesthetics, fun of accessories, etc...
I'd have to go with Henkei Convoy + G3 trailer + DIA commander armor. With those add-ons, they are the cat's meow of constant fiddling fun for me... and I'm not even that big of a Convoy fan (much prefer Megs in all incarnations [which I collect] over Prime).

G1 Scorponok: not my first choice as my favorite TF, but considering the 'Pretender' rules this is my favorite.
Big, chunky, pose-able enough (for its size), lots of gimmicks and three very playable and displayable modes.
