A tie between Leader Megatron (the best non-gun Megatron ever), and Prowl (the best transforming motorcycle ever)!

 

I've always loved Voyager Prime and Leader Megatron. I think Rodimus may have trumped them both. I was prepared for disappointment because I didn't think it could ever live up to the mental hype, but he sure did, and then some.

I think it's a tie between Lockdown and Blurr for me, with Arcee in a very close second.

I have to echo SPLIT LIP in that I'm pretty fond of each Animated toy I own  

 

Swindle all the way. The mold has so much character packed into it: the torso cannon, the colour-changing missile launcher barrel, the neck tie, the head sculpt and the greatest light-piping EVER! The only faults I can find are with the alt-mode, which I rarely have him in.

Runner up would be EM Ratchet, for convincing me to buy the entire line.

 

Really hard question as I love all my Animated figs. Each one of them has something that sets them apart and makes them great.
I am still waiting on my Arcee and Rodimus and am pretty sure they will be right up there, but can't count them yet.

Blurr is the best representation of the character from any line to my eyes. Generations Blurr looks good but doesn't capture his character as well as Animated. He is just joy !!!

I think my personal fave will always be Samurai Prowl though. As great as Blurr (and Rodimus and Arcee) are, we have had a lot of great car TF's from the various lines over the years. As a rule motorcycle transformers are usually pretty weak or outright suck. Prowl is slick and kibble free in both modes. The way the sidecar actually transforms (rather than just pull apart and snap on) is genius!! As others have said he is the best transforming motorcycle ever made (he is also my fave character in the show!!!

I miss still miss Prowl

Leader Megatron
Leader Ultra Magnus
Leader Bulkhead

Voyager True Colours Shockwave
Voyager Lugnut

Deluxe Battle Begins Optimus Prime
Deluxe Lockdown
Deluxe Arcee
Deluxe Oil Slick
Deluxe Jazz
Deluxe Swindle
Deluxe Soundwave/Lazerbeak

Activators Thundercracker
Activators BB and Cliffjumper


That's about it.

 

all of them are great! but here's my top five:

blitzwing, prowl, leader megs, acree, activators bumblebee (he's so fun to transform for some reason)

 

Lockdown, followed closely by Rodimus and Ultra Magnus.

 

I know everyone hates it, but when I'm looking to mess around with one of my animated figures, I seem to always grab deluxe Bumblebee. So for me, it's gonna be the Bee.

 

Shockwave.

 

Favorite ones I have:
Shockwave
Soundwave

Favorite ones I don't have:
Blitzwing
Arcee
Blackarachnia
Oil Slick
Bulkhead
Waspinator
Ratbat

 

Deluxe Blurr is my ultimate and total favourite. The car mode is awesome, the transformation is interesting without being tricky, and his robot mode is hella posable and full of attitude. I also like Atomic Lugnut for being big and chunky~.

 

I think, even relative to the amount of toys produced per size class, this line is defined by the Deluxes.

None of the Leaders are bad, but some are better than others. Most of the Voyagers aren't that great, imo...

...but most of the Deluxes are at least good to excellent.

 

Deluxe Blurr is indeed just chock full of win. He has one of the best car modes of any TF in the history of car modes IMO.

I'm also a big fan of voyager Grimlock and leader Bulkhead. They are both so chunky and full of character, plus the matte finish and overall cartoon aesthetic really suits them.

 

I can't choose one from this line, so I'll do my Top 5:

1. Rodimus Minor
1. First Release Prowl
1. Leader Megatron
4. Voyager Optimus
5. Blurr

 

Animated Crystal Rodimus sons of cybetron set...

 

Deluxe Blurr -- I personally thought his mold was awesome. His transformations was enjoyable, I liked how expressive he was in bot mode and his vehicle mode was just awesome.

 

My top Animated Line
1.Voyager Grimlock (He is my first and best Animated toy that I in joy with)
2.Deluxe Arcee (She so nice,and the best gal pal to Grimlock)
3.Deluxe Soundwave (He is SUPERIOR,and his Birdtor Laserbeak is great,and I'm don't have the one with Ratbat.)
4.Deluxe Waspinator (He so cute,and buggly)
5.Leader Ultra Magnus
6.Deluxe Lockdown
7.Voyager Starscream
8.Deluxe Blurr
9.Voyager Lugnut
10.Voyager Optimus Prime
