    Im noticing a trend of people saying thwy never transformed this toy or that.
    which ones have you never transformed? I wont limit this to 3rd party items, its just posted here so people dont gripe when we do include them.

    untransformed:
    Green Giant, although i did tf Yellow G.
    MP Acid Storm
    MP Prowl
    PE Warden
    MP Soundwave
    MMC Fortis
    KO Tigertrack
    YotH Prime
    Steelcore
    PE Reflector

    I think its pretty much everything ive bought lately, as i look at what i have transformed, theyre items bought before the above list, except steelcore.

    edit: ive also had a few toys i havent been able to transform completely.
    MP Megatron
    MP Rodimus.

    Only one of my Transformers has never been transformed, and will never be transformed either, as it just 1) doesn't need to be, 2) possibility of braking expensive toy, 3) looks too damn good the way it is, and this toy is

    Perfect Effect Aranea. It already has both bot mode and Spider mode, without needing to form bike or fan giant spider, so I am happy to never risk it!!!.

    Which transformers have I transformed the most? Probably Bovis / Fortis and Voyager Springer and Beast Hunter Arcee (now dino queen).

    I can't NOT transform them at least once. I have OCD, and not seeing each mode for myself at least once would be unacceptable. Sure, there are some that just mostly stay in one or the other mode, but most get switched time to time anyway. Except warden. I went through the transformations just to appease my OCD, then it was right back to robot mode. The only transformation he's likely to see is between robot to super robot.

    JUST got him today... so I think that Warden is the only one. Oh... and Chaos/Paladin... 'cause when I tried, he broke. We'll see when I get the replacement part. Oh... and not sure it counts, but I never put FP's Superion add-on parts on the bot or alt-modes... same with Colossus.

    Least times transformed though? Probably FP's insections... they're a pain.

    Most times would probably go to Steelcore and CODE... both are lots of fun to go back and forth.

    i would never buy a transformer that didn't transform, but I don't always feel the need to transform them all. sometimes its just a time thing and when I get a chance to sit down and do it I will. light some candles, you know, make it real special. ;) 

    that mp-05 megs will probably never get transformed though...

    Lol.. I like your make it special comment.. I have my own OCD'istic ritual, my gf loves to pick at me for it.

    I smoke a cigarette before. Wash my hands thoroughly, smell them to make sure they don't stink like smoke, maybe wash again. Get one of my "special" knives, and open the box. Admire whatever mode it's in, maybe pose it a bit, then on to the transformation. Then it gets posed on the shelf and the instructions/bio card filed away and the box (in third party cases) stored. Smoke again. ;)

    Aranea because I have to repair all the things that simply popped off and weren't properly glued in addition to impossible peg tolerances and loosening the joints.

    I cannot imagine buying something that is designed to be transformed and not transforming it. I've transformed everything I own, even Warden, who I feel people are missing out on if they don't at least try out the engineering on head mode

    Yeah... I did a couple of 'em and wasn't impressed. Actually, I'm trying to sell that guy now... not sure what it is about him that puts me off. Maybe if he was a bit smaller... seriously.

    Lol... I had ONE of those. It was a Voyager movie figure... only one I ever bought... back before 3P figures. Black voyager pick-up truck. Was that Ironhide? Just couldn't get the undercarriage right.

    I can't say there's a Transformer in my collection I haven't Transformed at least once, but I'd say Masterpiece Rodimus has been transformed the least amount of times simply because of how goddamn fiddly his transformation is. I also prefer not to transform Classics Ironhide because he doesn't like to fit back together in vehicle form (Plastic may have deformed)
