The Starscream vs Megatron dynamic was strong but I think I actually prefer the Autobot characters as a whole. Really distinct, fun characters include Prime, Grimlock, Jazz, Blaster, Tracks, Hotrod, Arcee, Kup, even a bot like Grapple had an interesting backstory. |

Autobots:
1. Optimus Prime
2. Bumblebee
3. Grimlock
4. Hotrod
Decepticons:
1. Megatron
2. Soundwave
3. Starscream
I think the Autobots win by a small margin. |

#18 | | bobpiecheese.multiply.com Join Date: Apr 2006 Posts: 1,013 Location: I come from a land down under... Collection Count: 156 w/ 54 Robot Heroes | Let's compare the two sides:
AUTOBOTS:
- Prime - Selfless Leader
- Bumblebee - Token Little Guy
- Mirage - Blue-Blooded ponce
- Tracks - Pouff
- Huffer - Pessimist
- Hound - Hippy
- Cliffjumper - Short-tempered
- Jetfire - Atheist
- Ironhide - Trigger-happy
- Ratchet - Pacifist
- Red Alert - Paranoid
- Prowl - Prick
- Grimlock - Moron
DECEPTICONS
- Megatron - Power-obsessed
- Starscream - Traitor
- Skywarp - Trickster
- Soundwave - All the personality of a stump
- Rumble - Street punk
- Dead End - Depressed
- Swindle - Blackmailer
- Dirge - Always dies
Autobots SEEM to have more, but they simply outnumber the Decepticons. I think they both have cool characters.  Quote:

#20 | | 'Til All Are Gone! Join Date: Mar 2007 Posts: 3,889 | Something to keep in mind is that the Autobots almost always outnumbered the Decepticons. When I was a kid (yes I rooted for the Decepticons) I always used to get mad that it seemed the Autobots always outnumbered the Decepticons. I remember yelling things at the tv like "Go get Devastator or those other jets!" Never seemed to work.  Quote:
