Loved RID Scourge(Laser OP repaint or something)Too many wicked things about this toy.Surprisingly cool.

 

Hated PCC garbage spring-loaded limb gimmick messing up gestalt mode.Surprisingly crap.

Most recently, the paint on Generations Thrust is phenomenal. Like a crimson pearl.

 

 

:beer Yup yup!

 

Generations Drift got a HUGE thumbs up for approval as well.

 

You all saw how inspired I was in my other thread about Animated Starscream and Skywarp. Pleasantly, what great figures!

 

Biggest surprise AND dissapointment goes to Universe Hot Shot hands down. I think he's a great figure! There. I said it. The toy has a LOT of great stuff going for him (kibble aside) but the dissapointing factor comes in with the loss of weaponry which the Henkei version triumphs on. It's still my personal gripe.

pretty much the entire marverl crossovers line...thought it would be useless but ended up loving it

Surprise Like - Armada Red Alert, didnt get him until he came repainted in blue but I really was impressed with the figure.

 

Surprise dislike - Masterpiece Megatron, he legs are so damned skinny. I dont really know what I was expecting but I have never been able to get past that part of the figure.

My biggest surprise is probably Energon Landmine. He shelfwarmed for a bit in the toy shops around here and I had no intention of buying it, I don't think I ever even looked at the back of the box. Then one christmas by dad bought it for me (because neither he or my mother could find the tf figures I had asked for). And it turned out that the figure was great and is definitely one of my favourites.

 

If I recall, the toys I had asked for were the powerlinx/energon redecos of Armada Cyclonus and Demolishor. Thinking back, it's a good thing I got landmine instead.

 

 

I'm surprised how much I still like the first movie's Starscream even though I also have the one from RotF now...

 

Hear hear. I have the 4 main seeker repaints in that mold (G1SS, TC, SW, RJ) and I heart them.

I really like BW Optimal Optimus. Man, this figure is just plain awesome! Some people complain about his Jet and Truck mode. I say, in Jet mode turn the blue sholders is the same position as Robot mode, and in truck mode, flip the cockpit forward to cover the ape chest.

I also liked the ROTF Optimus Prime. The only real backfire is his combination with Jetfire.

And finally I really like the Autobot Energon Deluxes and Voyager combinations. They are the best Transformers who can "stay together," excluding ROTF Power Up Prime.

 

I really was disappointed at ROTF Devastator. He looked very nice in the package, but as a toy; he had a very simple transformation, his little legs could barrly hold him and he only came with 6. (In ROTF, there was 7.)

Also disappointed with any other combination excliding what I said before because they just would "stay together."

Recently, the Animated Activators..

i am kinda disappointed in sounds of the Europe versions of the leaderclass figures of RotF and 2010 lines. why only saying there names??! Animated line they kept all the lines.
