Our Results for Hasbro's 2014 Transformers Hall of Fame Fans' Choice Voting

Posted by ScoutBumblebee Jun 5, 2014 at 9:04pm CDT 22,456 views
In late May, we offered members the chance to vote for the 2014 Hasbro Transformers Hall of Fame Fan's Choice. The Seibertron community has spoken, and the results are in. Here are your top five choices for the 2014 Fan's Choice:

    Devastator with 9%
    Arcee with 7%
    Rodimus with 7%
    Unicron with 7%
    Prowl with 6%

Remember, this list will be compiled with the lists from other Transformers fan sites, all of which will be combined together with each outlet getting an equal voice. The top character on each list is worth five points, second is worth four points, and so on. All point values wil be calculated, and those point values will be used to create a final ballot of five choices. Those five finalists will be up for voting on the Transformers Fan Page on Facebook.

Thanks for participating, and making your voice heard. Now you can tell us, do you agree or disagree with the final five from Seibertron?

More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

If I'm just a tad disappointed, it's because I'd really like Blackarachnia to be the first fembot inducted, rather than Arcee. While Blackarachnia's BW and Animated incarnations are just similar enough to be lumped together, inducting every Arcee from TF:TM to Aligned together as the same character (per past HoF policy) just seems disingenuous. Blackarachnia was genuinely bad-ass long before any Arcee followed suit, and complex without any major contradictions of character traits.

Still, Arcee will always be the first name in female TFs that most fans think of, and a win could help guarantee a proper G1 toy of her, so I couldn't exactly complain. Just a preference.

Not sure why the spike in Devy's popularity this year, but yeah, he's overdue, so he's got my vote.

Nah, they have to compile all the fan sites nominations, and then put them up on HASBRO's site to get the community to vote there.

Seems like a lot of the choices are based on what the characters were as opposed to who they were -- i.e. the first combiner, the robot devil, the main female character, etc..

Arcee's popularity likely spiked from her Prime counterpart moreso than her G1 counterpart.

After all, Prime Arcee was more of a character while G1 Arcee's roles have only ever been "The Chick" or "The Psychotic, Murderous, Violated Chick".

Couldn't have put it any better. My thoughts EXACTLY.

I voted for Inferno! Why is he not on this list? My votes should be equal to 90 votes!

Seriously though, I'm pretty happy with the results for Seibertrons poll. Except for Rodimus of course, but the other choices work for me! Here's hoping Dev comes out on top in other websites! We REALLY need a new Devastator figure!

Rodimus and Arcee seem to be the most ubiquitous winners across several fansites.

This could be the year that those two make it in.

Then again, it's not like the Hall of Fame is anything that special anymore. :|

I'm hoping for Unicron, I love the 1986 movie so much, and Unicron's appearance was quite memorable in my opinion. In the same vein Hot Rod would be cool, but Unicron's cooler

If they hadn't stopped doing auto-inductees, those two would have been obvious choices for either last year or this year.

Well, if Beast Wars Megatron got in, it's only fair Optimus Primal got in as well. I'm also throwing in my vote for Devastator in the hopes of us getting a legitimate official combining Generation One-inspired Constructicon figures that combine into a Generation One-inspired Devastator. [-(

Much as I hate Facebook polls, I'm gonna likely gonna alternate between Primal and Devastator.
