Personally, here are mine:
Scouts: Scrapmetal (if you can find him)
Deluxes: CD Hot Shot, but I've also heard very good things about Crosswise. If you haven't grabbed Sideways yet, make sure he's a priority. Metal Gear Online : Darque

#7 | | Decepticon Join Date: Nov 2002 Posts: 143 Location: Boston | i ended up going to Wally world and getting a 2 pack of the Cybertron Autobot minicon team (the one with Jolt) and Ransack (he's been warming these shelves for so long i took pity, and $6 for 2 basics cant be beat. Then i picked up Swindle (i think its incredibly gay that Cyberton is already relying so much on repaints, but since i didnt have the original of that mold, i got Swindle) He is a nice semi-homage to G1 Swindle. My only complaint is that they should have made his bio fit his charcater name/history better. Swindle is not a melee weapons fighter, he's the Decepticon equivalent of a crack dealer.

However, they had Downshift, who i think is one of the coolest deluxe TFs to come out in a looooooooooong time. Reminds me very much of an old school Dodge, back when Dodge made muscle cars. His color scheme is pimpin', and i love the fact that his guns can be hekd as guns in the traditional way OR used as shoulder cannons Very G1ish without the risk of losing the weapons. Also love the fact that minicons can be attached to his weapons, making him one heavily armored deluxe class TF. Even my girlfriend loves him, he's the only TF allowed on a shelf in the bedroom, the rest go in the spare room. She's really into classic cars, hence, loves this guy. My only complaint is a bot that cool should have been a Decepticon. A+, totally worth the 10 bucks
