'Power of the Primes' Fan Vote Final Round Open

Munkky! Munkky! MUNKKY! MUNKKY! MUNKKY!

My vote went straight for Maximal Prime. That is my pick and will be my vote for all 4 days.

I'll be happy no matter what depending on who wins, but please be Primal

Oh Primal, here's hoping! I really hope that if he wins we will have a Beast Wars renaissance in figures to folLow up to Rattrap, Waspinator, and Rhinox from a few years back in Generations. I need an updated Generations Beast Wars Dinobot and/or Megatron NOW.

Optimal Optimus!
Primal Prime!
Maximal Prime!
MUNKY Prime!
The Optimal Vote is a Vote for Optimus Primal!

I voted for Star Saber, primarily because I want a new toy of him and this seems the best way to get one.

I voted for Primal today, then Star Saber tomorrow, then Primal, the Star Saber. I don't have enough money to buy two masterpieces and besides, Magnums has had multiple chances (he only did well in Animated) and failed. And Deathsaurus is well, evil.

I hate BeastWars.....

My vote was for that Deathsaurus. But if not him then I hope Star Saber wins it since we already have several UM's figures. That silly monkey version of Optimus has always reeked of not knowing what to do with the TF franchise during that time.

So I want no parts of it.

Actually, Beast Wars is generally considered to be the franchise savior during a time in the late 90's when Hasbro legitimately didn't know what to do with the franchise, where neon rapaints of G1 toys rebranded as G2 was the best they could come up with. Plus, a lot of BW engineering is still used today (ex. ball joints). If you haven't watched it, you should definitely give it a chance. If you have, that's a shame, a lot of people really enjoyed it, and still do. Do you have MP StarSaber? I've been waffling on MP Primal for weeks now myself.

Primal got my vote today, I might change it the next couple of days. Wouldn't mind seeing a different Primal in a new role.

Well, as far as giving "some" figures a chance does Waspinator and Blackarachnia count? I have CHUG versions of those. Just never been a fan of Optimus and Megatron as Gorilla's and Dinosaurs. But if one of the Ongoing IDW books can successfully implement the other BW characters in that universe one way or another then who am I to argue right?

Honestly Arcee was my top choice as I thought she'd be the most interesting of them, but with her gone, I went for Primal.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I really really wanted Shockwave. I dunno. Primal, I guess. Ultra Magnus would be fine by me too.

I don't want Star Saber.

I voted Primal, because he's the optimal choice.

Voted Primal. Yos.

Houndimus Prime is a crushed dream so I'm going with Star Saber in the hopes that him winning boosts his popularity in the west.


I also actually want a toy of him too that's not either an expensive japan exclusive or a masterpiece figure since I hate Masterpiece.

Unknown Evil ... because I hate you munky fans and want to shatter your dreams.

The term "Alt-Autobot" was formed by some random racist mech (Sentinel Prime?) and a bunch of people on Twitter picked it up and thought it was a good term and didn't know it means they are a bunch of utter jackasses.

Why did the winners have to be the worst from each category -_-

I was kinda hoping Megs would win over Saber.

Maximal Rainmaker wrote:Why did the winners have to be the worst from each category -_-

Because...



That's why.

G1 Star Saber is awesome. IDW Star Saber is the worst thing ever conceived in Transformers fiction. I HATE IDW Star Saber. He disgusts me.

...but I digress.

My vote each day is going to Optimus Primal. Seems he's an early favorite right now. This pleases me.

He probably hates you too.

As does Primus.

Maybe the real joke was the friends we made along the way.

Before Burn killed them.

Well, naturally. You're one of the friends I've made here and he had to kill you to protect the secrets of Braingate.

Sounds like someone is salty Tentakillary Clintron lost.

Every so slight bump back on topic (don't even think about it). Please no American or otherwise election comments please

Now, to steer the ship back into calmer waters, I was thinking of some names for everyone should they change their name to be Prime. Other than Maximal Prime, we have:

Dino Prime
Saber Prime
Star ConvoyPrime
Magnus Prime
Ultra Prime
Prime Magnus

Idk, just some stupid ones to throw out

Oooh I'm good at this game.

Optimus Primal:
-Primal Convoy
-Primal Prime (yeh)
-Optimal Prime


Star Saber:
-Starlight Prime
-Nostalgia Critic

Ultra Magnus:
-(ehhh who cares.)

Deathsaurus:
-Dr. Evil

I originally wanted Thunderwing to win because he had established matrix-affinity.

But now I'm behind Primal. Not just because Beast Wars deserves more love, but because he did have an Energon Matrix in the BWII movie, meaning a win here could force western media to deal with the largely J-exclusive concept of multiple matrices, or just sow more confusion, reinforcing his inclusion in the Chaos category.

Apologies. Been reading too much news lately.

Does Saber Prime fight Berserker for the Holy grail Matrix?


Star Saber the last knight confirmed.

Number 1: I should've said "worst character".
Number 2: Beast isn't so bad. Kinda cool to me actually.

Dunno what you're talking about at all. You just linked to a couple of empty pages; about things that simply don't exist, have never existed and will never exist. Such an utterly bizarre post.

Some people would consider the Bay films among that list Sabr (not me I love em their entertaining to watch in a theater which in the end is all I care about not if their great but if its entertaining)


Also never understood the problem with Beast even after reading the comic could I have some context please?

One by one the enlightened continue to mysteriously vanish. We're all on a list.

A staff member has already attempted to keep this thread on topic, it's disappointing that other staff members feel they can undo that.

Knock it off.

I forgot to say this before, but I think the only reason they have the "wild card vote" is because Hasbro is trying their best to push Deathsaurus through because they have plans for fiction with him. Either that or they just really love Burn.

Sorry, Burn, (if you're talking to me).
Although, I don't quite understand what was off topic in my post, (reacting to SillySpringer's suggestion for what StarSaber's Prime name should be, and just making a quick Braingate joke ((not meant to be a reference to current politics)) but I still apologize.

Anyway, moving more directly on topic, I'm disappointed by UM being chosen, as much as I love him, considering we just got a pretty good toy of him. I his have much preferred Hound, with more G1-styled toy than the CW version.

Or, because they have plans for a new toy of him, according to the Titans Return rumors.

Of course they have plans. This is the joke, we're expected to believe we actually have an input into this.

Throwing Star Sabre and Deathsaurus into Earth Wars was out of left field, but when you factor in this "vote" it's suddenly not so left field, it's generating interest in two some what lesser known characters.

Or, because he had the most votes out of the losers.

Maybe all of the above? Maybe none. Maybe the person in charge of the vote just really likes Deathsaurus.

Kurona wrote:Or, because he had the most votes out of the losers.

I really doubt he had the most votes out of the losers compared to say Megatron or Arcee.


I think the wild card placement was always meant to have him if he did not win the Chaos vote I also doubt there would be a wild card category if he did win the chaos vote.
