    because the robot modes are cooler than the alt modes. and if the alt modes are cooler than the robot mode, then i don't buy it. i'm not into the vehicales, i'm into the robots.

    well, since I have multiple soundwaves, I keep all of them in robot mode except the MISB one (for now) and I don't really ever transform them anymore.

    and I'm pretty sure that the people who have MP megatrons don't go to town TFing him day and night "just for fun".

    but other then having multiples, or having a difficult transformation, it could either be form having an immense collection, or just form liking one mode over the other.

    Meh, I transform all of my figures at least once or twice. Then they either go on display, in storage, or up for resale. Those that go on display are only transformed when I feel like changing my display or if I'm bored and need to fiddle with something.

    As for robot vs. Alt mode... if it's a vehicular transformer, odds are heavily in the favour of it being displayed in robot mode most of the time. If it's a Beast Wars figure (and that's mainly all I collected) that all depends which mode I think looks better. For instance, Mach Kick is usually (though not currently) in bot mode because as much as I do love the horse I like the bot more. On the other hand, BW Megatron is generally in T-Rex mode.

    i have to say i almost never fail to transform mine once in a while.i do usually leave the more expensive ones,like my mp optimus alone most of the time,though.
    when someone inevitably asks,i tell them my collection is in extremely good shape,considering how little effort i put into keeping them that way.

    I keep some of the jets in vehicle mode for display and not every bot is in robot mode. on top of looking cool I'd need a significantly wider shelf to display them all as vehicles.

    But thats not your point. your point is do we take some down twist and rotate them to rollout and foil megatrons plot etc. answer: Yes

    Mine usually end up displayed in robot mode, but I do occasionally grab one, and transform it. Even my customs occasionally get transformed. Movie voyager Prime, and G1 repaint Jazz have been in vehicle mode for the last few days, because they look cool that way.

    I transform mine. But out of like 1000 I can only concentrate on a few at a time. So the rest usually sit there not being transformed collecting dust. Not cuz I don't want to, but because I have most from every line & I can't possibly transform them all.

    I sold all my Alternators because those were a bitch to transform. I didn't enjoy transforming them at all, so I figured what's the point of owning a transformer that I don't enjoy transforming? So I got rid of them all.

    There are a few figures that I've never transformed at all. Unicron for one, I dont see the point of making all that effort to change him into a little football. I also haven't transformed MP Megatron since he is so damn hard (and I don't want a gun in my cabinet so I'd have to transform him right back). Finally there's BT Blue Tracks and Dead End who look so damn good in car mode that I don't really want to change them. I recently put BTA Sunstreaker in car mode for the first time though.
