    Either G1 Astrotrain or Blitzwing, they have 2 great alt modes, unlike alot of triple changers where one or both alt modes suck.

    I would say Blitzwing is the best all around triple changer. You get an ultimate warrior with the bot, tank, & jet. Although I like astrotrains bot mode better his alt modes are more transport based not battle based.

    G1, the classics just isn't as good imo because it's alt modes both have problems.

    Between G1 and Classics Astrotrain, I personally would go for the Classics version. As for the others, I'm waiting for Animated Blitzwing and Universe Tankor. If what Hasbro said about wanting to make updates of all triple changers stays true, I'll also be waiting for Springer, Sandstorm, and Broadside, though how long I'll be waiting for those, I don't know, but I don't have any plans to buy the G1 versions of them ever (I'm honestly not a big fan of G1).

    I had Sandstorm way back when, awesome toy. I'd go for Animated Blitzwing and Classics Octane as well.

    I think Sandstorm has a cool looking Dune Buggy & Helicopter. Figure's arms are ******ed, then again, Blitzwing's robot mode is pretty stiff too.

    Of the 6 you have to chose from one that is very good is Blitzwing. The other 5 are good but Blitzwing comes with gun, sword, missiles,tankmode,botmode and jetmode. The other are great especially Octane but If you only goingto get one or start with one get Blitzwing.

    He was my favorite. Very good alt modes with little or no alternate vehicle kibble showing in either vehicle modes.

    I don't recommend Octane for the kibble reason. His arms just stick out too much in either mode.

    I own G1 Blitzwing and I just love him to death, I even try to time myself as to how quick I can Change him into all three modes!

    I acctually don't own that many Tripple Changers, but I'm looking forward to Universe Octane/Tankor, Animated Blitzwing? Ehhhh...not so much
