Jazz and Silverstreak look the best as bots and Hound is
close to his G1 form.

It's really hard to choose though. Yeah, I chose Broadblast, but Tracks deserves honorable mention too. Very G1-ish!!! I know they all are, but this one seems to be more than any of the other. :-?

I forgot all about Tracks. He is very close to the G1 toy. Of course mine is still in the box, because I won him last year at Iacon, and I never saw him in stores in my area. Same with mu Alt. Prowl. The one the Mrs. got me for my b-day last year is the only one in box I've ever seen.

Well sideswipe got me into BT but he's been eclipsed by Tracks as my favorite (They all look pretty sharp in both modes however). Honorable mention to Hound as well, though I wish he had his rocket launcher

My votes gotta go to Skids, mostly for all the untapped potential of the figure/mold.

Aside from more likely Ironhide and/or Ratchet, there's a number of G1 characters that could've slipped into the mold easily enough. My personal favorite was the fan made Perceptor. And honestly, there's no reason why Bumblebee couldn't have worked.

I, for one, am [slowly] working on Goldbug:

Honorable Mentions: the Mustang and GT molds, the new Ravage for being outside the norm and of course, the Subaru mold though the Mazda went back and cleaned up a few of the flaws in the Subaru's design.

But really, the alt/BTs never went wrong. Even the Dodge Ram wouldn't be so bad if they'd just tightened up the knees a little.

Why, is it because the mold became as repecitive as your wit?

BT Hound is my favorite. The mold and transformation are great and very poseable. KISS Hot Rodimus is my second favorite.

If you're serious about being evil/a dick, learn to spell. That way, people at least know what you're talking about before laughing at you.

Firefox spell checker tells me he meant 'Repetitive' an obvious stab at Burn, other than that I have no idea what this guys beef is.

Burn and he are having jabs about whose being evilest. LE's recent positive dealings with Tommy Tek led to Burn suggesting a name change.

I had no idea LE was taking this seriously. It seemed to just be in fun.

Sledge, you need to be careful about getting in the middle of that. You never know if LE is using a word that came from Burn or if it was truly his own mistake.

Your inviting him to play the flame game with you. Clearly he is angry, so please stay off his back. And LE needs to stay off Burn's. Since neither has been here lately, maybe it can just drop.

Returning to topic please.

Of the few that I own, I love Tracks. Corvette & Robot mode are just awesome & look awesome as well. One I don't own but have my eye on is Shockwave. Always been a Shockwave fan. I think he looks good like that.
