    It's a toss between DOTM Shockwave and Skyhopper. IMO...

    Ebay:
    Legion: Crowbar. He might be my favorite of all time in this size.

    Commander: Blackout. I can't believe he is a thing. He packs in all the gimmicks that movie 1 advertised and his Voyager figure lacked, and then he's a Targetmaster on top of that.

    HA Basic: I only have Backfire, and I really like him. Mostly as a BFG.

    Deluxe: I didn't expect to like any, but fell in love with several. If I have to pick one, I must go with Ratchet. Guess I'm just a big kid, Bumblethumper!

    Voyager: I love Shockwave's robot mode and Megatron's vehicle mode. Advantage: Shockwave. Megatron would score higher (I really like him) but I think his proportions and sculpt really fail to do the design justice. Sorry to waffle here.

    HA Deluxe: N/A, but out of the three announced I obviously have to go with Roadbuster. Not interested in any others. I mean, I have that BB already, he's pretty good.

    Leader: Sentinel Prime. I only own SP, but I have no interest in BB and Ironhide seems fairly flawed. I LOVE this big bastard.

    I'd have to say -

    Cyberverse: Ironhide (with Powerglide a close second).
    HA Basics: haven't been released here yet, but Sandstorm & Backfire look good.
    Deluxe: Crankcase...but may be Optimus when I find one.
    Voyager: Megatron.
    Leader: they all look underwhelming, but Sentinel Prime appears the best.

    I only have 2 Voyagers and like 7 or 8 deluxes, but there are a good number of stand-outs.

    Shockwave, Bumblebee, Sideswipe, Topspin, Ratchet and Crankcase are probably the best of the bunch I own.

    Cyberverse: Blackout
    Deluxe: Starscream
    Voyager: Megatron

    Dont have any other size class as HA basix hasnt been released here. I will just use this space to advise you to avoid Cyberverse Topspin as he's utter rubbish.

    I happen to like the Mech Tech figures. Right size for Mudflap, Skids, Barricade and Thundercracker. Maybe for Bumblee too I dunno

    Cyberverse: Blackout, for being somewhat complex and having a tiny Scorponok Targetmaster

    Deluxe: Ratchet. He may not even be the best of the few I have, but I'm most impressed that they made me like a design that I've never liked enough to buy a toy of.

    Voyager: Megatron because the articulated trailer hitch area baffles me

    Leader: I'd really like to say Sentinel, but I think Ironhide is a huge, kick-ass hunk of plastic.

    I honestly had no interest in this line minus Shockwave.

    But after seeing the movie I had to get the wreckers. Haven't opened Roadbuster yet but Topspin is freaking great so far.

    Son and nephew got me Shockwave and he doesn't disappoint either, a great rendition of the character.

    Sadly the rest of the line still don't have me, but glad I got these lil' jewels.

    Deluxe Starscream and/or Thundercracker. The new Seeker mold is pretty cool and fun! Skywarp should be available soon too. Seekers unite!

    Cyberverse Commander Powerglide. Love this little guy!
