The winner this year for the new character induction is the purple and black seeker himself, Skywarp! Skywarp originated from the first wave of the 1984 toyline, cartoon, and comics, and many fell in love with his teleporting capabilities. And it would seem that his teleporting abilities finally got him into the hall of fame.
And the winner of this year's toy induction is the Titan himself, Omega Supreme! Omega has been on the market now for around 2 months, and has proven to be a very popular Titan, with many considering him to be the best Titan we have gotten so far. This titanic monosyllabic character made his way into our hearts, and how so has his toy.
So what do you think of these results? Was this the result you had hoped for? Let us know what you think in the comments section below!

Fan-favorite and thoroughly-developed fembot Blackarachnia won last year.MeGrimlockKing2018 wrote:Dang nab it I wanted Arcee to win sick of all the male TF'ers getting in and no love for the fembots of which Arcee is my ONLY favorite
Besides, Arcee wasn't even an optional candidate to vote for since this poll was nothing but 1984 characters and Arcee was from 1986.

Just PR and kind of an afterthought at that. I'd speculate that the poll serves a dual purpose of gauging fan interest levels in characters, but who knows.Lucky Logician wrote:Is there an actual Hall of Fame website or something for these? Or is just a PR thing every year for fans?

It used to be a bigger deal in its first three years, but then the brand team changed soon after.ScottyP wrote:Just PR and kind of an afterthought at that.

I remember this being a big deal at Botcon. It was fun to see which characters would win and to give awards to the people who deserved recognition.
But if we aren't having a Hascon or even any sort of ceremony, this just kinda rings really hollow for me.

It would be nice if we got something like a special Hall of Fame toyline in the future, probably just an all-Deluxe line like the original Generations range, or perhaps mostly Deluxe with like three or four Voyagers and a Predaking box set. There are enough characters to fill out a toyline now, so it could probably work.
