i wasnt a real big fan of the powerlinking gimmick to be honest, more often than not, the only real good powerlink combo was when you linked a bot with himself

I like powerlinking - heck, I have to use the instructions on most of them still :redface

 

Minicons were great by themselves - pretty annoying, when required for transformation :grr

 

I liked Headmasters, Targetmasters, and  Powermasters. Fuziors and Mutants weren’t too bad, just very ugly.

 

I’d have to go with Other. Repaints of the same named character using the same mold :tdown

Landcross was the original powerlinker way back in Victory, and I actually like him, but as a gimick for an entire line I thought it hurt alot of Energon figures.

Landcross was a combiner wasn't he?

 

I like the powerlinking idea, but not to the degree it was done in energon. In Armada, you had Prime/Jetfire, Megs/Tidal Wave. Not too much, not too little. The idea is sound, but they over did it in energon. Yet another reason to hate the show

 

The repaints weren't really a gimmick, but for reformatting purposes, I hate them. If a character is being reformatted, give them a new body...YOU HEAR ME HASBRO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't like the mutants too much, but the Energon stars were pretty darn retarded- I think they take the cake.

Landcross was a combiner wasn't he?

 

Both, really. Any two Landcross members can form a larger robot, and they can all combine together.

I'm so glad Takara reissued him a while back or else I would have never had the pleasure.

Other-Action Masters

 

Id's be willing to bet real $$ that rehashing that gimmick could destroy TF all over again. :tdown
