I fancy deluxes because they're a fair price, and the figures are great.

by **toxicity** » Fri Nov 02, 2007 6:00 am

agreed, deluxes for the win...

I also find them more playable..i can't really have fun messing with anything bigger than a deluxe, unless they're pretty close, like voyager prime from the classics

by **DoubleOScorpio** » Fri Nov 02, 2007 6:00 am

I also like the Deluxes, but find that so many of the Scout class figures have fun transformations that I have to go with that size.

Take for example: Armorhide, Hardtop/Swindle, Air Raid/Skyblast, and on and on....

Deluxe.

I also fancy deluxes for the majority of my figures.

Yep, deluxes are the bulk of most lines for a reason.
I love em too. Priced to sell and big enough for great transformations and articulation.

although, who doesnt want at least 2 supreme class bots per line?

Dont discount scouts. There are some really fun scouts, especilly in cybertron.

by **Ramrider** » Fri Nov 02, 2007 6:20 am

Not discounting Scouts, but yeah, Deluxes have the best mix of size and value - they're big enough to be interesting, and small enough to not hurt the wallet too much.
Actually, though, I think it's the Voyagers that come just behind for me.

by **5kywarp** » Fri Nov 02, 2007 6:22 am

yes, Deluxe for me, there are some great figures in that line.

I love the cybertron scouts, I have them all and they are great fun.

Simple, clever and they look great.

I dont think I would want to give up any of the size classes.
The animated line looks like leaders and supremes might not show up though. Prime and Megs look like voyagers at best.

Meh i like Voyager and Deluxe the most, though i do enjoy movie as far as detail and display goes. But overall i feel voyager has the best overall size and Deluxe has the best overall price .

Hmm, what would Combiners be put under for size category?

I honestly think that is a good thing.

Lets look at the leaders and supremes of cybertron (my fav overal tf line):
Leaders:
Prime, awesome.
Megs, pretty pants, silly colours, unimpresive gimmics, difficult to pose, and quite frankly utterly strange choice of alt for the all powerful leader of the decepticons.
Metroplex: wtf is he? I'll tell you wha6t he is. Pants.

Supreme:
Starscream, the giant voyager.
Primus, looks beautiful, but isnt as pig or as posable as unicron.

So to recap, in cybertron the only leader/supreme toy i truely felt was worth the money I paid for it was Prime.

Thats a lot of money I wont have to spend on the animated toys.

i use to like mega..now i only opted for deluxes

by **-Barricade-** » Fri Nov 02, 2007 6:56 am

Scouts and Deluxe for me.

by **heroic_decepticon** » Fri Nov 02, 2007 6:59 am

I like the deluxes. Not too small, but handy. Leader Class is just too big and cumbersome.

Deluxes FTW in my book, then comes the Voyager Class. Deluxes just fit in with a lot of lines, and you can get some pretty good transformations from that size. Voyager class is nice, but sometimes I find the transformations to be simpler then they should be.

by **Nujevad** » Fri Nov 02, 2007 10:11 am

I prefer Voyagers. They've got more detail and features than the deluxes without being too bulky and unposable like the Leader classes. Some of my favorite figures are Voyagers: Classics Jetfire, Classics Ultra Magnus, Movie Ironhide, Movie Starscream, Cybertron Soundwave and Cybertron Defense Scattershot, just to name a few.

I think Voyager figures are my favorite when done well, with somewhat complex transformations and lots of detail, such as Movie Ratchet.

However, a lot are overly simplistic, and I own a lot more deluxes. I've never liked the electronic features, so Ultra classes are like voyagers, but annoying. Leaders can be very impressive, but generally take up too much space.

I think deluxes are the best overall, fun transformations and detail, without taking up too much room (I have limited space). And they're nice and affordable as well.

Voyager class by far.

by **zemper** » Fri Nov 02, 2007 2:49 pm

deluxe for me.

Gotta say Deluxe.

More bang for your buck, easy to pose, less kibble.

by **Bluesummers** » Fri Nov 02, 2007 4:09 pm

Deluxe, for prices. Also, because I can never find much else anywhere. :grin:

by **Battlewagon** » Fri Nov 02, 2007 4:10 pm

deluxe. can't beat what you get for the price. they (for the most part) have cool transformations and are great looking robots with solid articulation. for me it would have to be the voyager class next though the only ones i have picked up recently have been starscream and blackout.

by **Raymond101** » Fri Nov 02, 2007 4:53 pm

Looking at the movie line, Leader Class did pretty well. Prime is awesome, Brawl is okay, and Megs isn't too bad if you repaint him.

Deluxe is usually more value for money. Voyager if you want to splurge a little. And Leader Class is for sheer epicness.

Unfortunately, movie line doesn't have Supreme, and I never got a Supreme figure since I started this hobby in Beast Wars, so I wouldn't know

by **Sportimus Prime** » Fri Nov 02, 2007 5:29 pm

The standard sized figures for the G1 line (like Prowl, Sunstreaker, Jazz, etc) seem just a tad smaller than Deluxe, but larger than a Scout class figure. Which is why I like the Deluxe and Scout class so much. I love the Cybertron Deluxe and Scout figures a whole lot, as well as the movie. So the Deluxe size is the winner for me, followed by Scout size that is tied with Voyager for second place.
