    Make no mistake though, this is my favorite Cheetor mold. It was my favorite TF to fiddle with too.

    Universe Galvatron. He's fun to transform.

    Still hope we get a better Galvatron, though. One that doesn't look like dog shit when posed next to Cyclonus and Scourge.

    Oh man, definitely this guy:

    [​IMG]

    His design is all over the place, and the place is a puke-covered gas station men's room. But god, I've held onto this toy since it first came out. I constantly rediscover it and play with it like it's brand new to me. I don't know what the appeal is, it's just so god damn ugly that it's gone around the bend to freaking exquisite.

    Universe Cheetor. The hunchback sucks but I still like him for some reason.

    Mine would be most if not all of the Kreo's,even tho some pieces pop off sometimes I still love to play with those things.Besides I have been playing with Lego's for years.I have almost all of the Harry Potter Lego's except the castle ($129 for that thing is a little expensive,but I'm hoping one day to find a bunch of lego's at a yard sale or flea market cheap that has that in it.

    Back to Kreo but I am about 75% complete on them.I only have 1 Kreo Megs,1 Starscream,and 2 Optimus Prime before I have them all.One for each mode basically.After I check my bills later if I have any money left I may go get either Starscream or Megs tomorrow,even tho I am leaning more toward Kreo Scream do yall think I should get him or Megs?.I like Megs too but IMHO I like SS more as he looks more G1'ish,whereas Megs is clearly the movie resemble figure.Let me know guys and thanks.


    Edit:
    And to NothingHead,even tho you pretty much nailed it about that figure I have one just like it,I swear its like someone threw up on it he is one cute figure.

    Man, part of the reason I want him is because his design is so goddamn insane.

    DOTM Icepick I've seen get some flak, but I can't help but love him/her (tell me the design aesthetic doesn't have some feminine qualities, come on). Despite the flaws, there's a great range of poseability, and the alt-mode is just nifty. Once I get a TF to utilize it, the chainsaw/waffle-iron of doom mode will add to that.

    Also, as I'm sure everyone knows by now, I do so love my GoBots, no matter how much they suck.

    BiS Hotrod. The paint apps on mine are fine, and all the joints/hinges work perfectly.

    BT/Alt Dodge Ram moulds (Optimus Prime/Nemesis Prime etc). The bot mode is chunky and awkward, but to me they are fitting to the character.

    I'd have added Henkei/Universe Galvatron as well, but my latest (from eHobby 3 pack) failed so badly I can't say I like it anymore :(

    I didn't end up buying any, but I laughed pretty hard when I saw these "transformable robots" or whatever in the dollar store today because they had a chibi lockdown among them.

    Personally, I wouldn't say any of these are horrible. Some are bad, some mediocre, some good, but I've seen some hate directed towards them all, yet I still like them.

    BW Optimus Minor.
    Lemony RiD Prime: I've seen people complain about the colors, but there are real yellow firetrucks, and he has a good bit of sentimental value for me.
    A lot of Armada toys, esp. Trailer Prime and Megatron, probably my two favorite designs for them.
    Energon five bot Gestalts with out add-ons.
    Cybertron Hardtop: People complain about the colors; I love 'em.
    Cybertron Soundwave: My favorite incarnation of Soundwave I have. Wish I could find more compatible minions for him.
    Universe Galvatron: I got mine last year from HTS so I can only assume it's some kind of forgotten last wave where the falling apart problems were fixed, cuz the only times anythings fallen off mine were when I pulled them off.
    Universe Tankane.
    All of PCC.
    Kup's stock head: It's just that Igear's is better.
    Most DotM Toys, esp. Voyager Prime and Deluxe Roadbuster and Sideswipe.

    I'm sure I'll think of more later.
