    So, two different versions of the Megahead Megatron figure, in a form that the character didn't use in the show...but no Transmetal II Megatron? That's one of the best figures that BW Megatron got!

    Other than that, cool display. Hope to see SkyByte win.

    I'm curious about the thought process behind picking the toys for the display. Jazz doesn't have any Animated or Movie toys, Starscream doesn't have any UT stuff, Ratchet's space is just sparce in general, and so forth. It really makes the display seem rushed and half-assed. On a related note, inB4 "this proves that that wasn't Wheeljack in DOTM"

    Is Hasbro trying to move away from Animated? Like it never happened?

    Huh, looks like they put less effort into the cases this year. Maybe they left figures out because they have limited space to work with?

    if i'm wrong, i'll stand corrected but i can't see a classic mini-bot Bumblebee in there.

    Surely that should have been one of the first...?

    That would imply a sense of humour on their part, though. :(

    Sky-Byte doesn't mind if he's mis-transformed. He's just happy to be there.


    Who's the greatest shark in town? Also where the fuck is TM2 Megatron and his demon dragon self?

    I'd be pretty suprised if Sky-Byte wins. However BW Dinobot was able to win despite him being in one series so Sky-Byte does a pretty good chance.

    I really like the fact that they made displays for all the nominees.

    Yeah, you can tell a lot of thought went into it. Like having the candy toy Megatron and little Chibi Waspinator. I'm wondering if they simply couldn't find a TM2 Megatron in time. Hell, even the Sky-Byte bath toy from that perverted little T-Ai figure is there.

    It wouldn't surprise me, considering all the support that has sprung up here since he was announced to be in the final 5. He doesn't share the support with a good amount of the other fan sites, but TFW is larger than them. It seems to me like practically everyone who voted for Swindle in the nominations went to Sky-Byte after Swindle got kicked out

    BW Megatron is the guy that I think most people are expecting to win. Which, if the past 2 HOFs are any indication, means he won't end up winning. Then again, maybe he won't fall to the same fate as Soundwave and Grimlock did

    Wheeljack was only 30 or so behind Megatron in this site's nominations, and with the removal of Swindle puts him in second when looking at the votes from the nominations. I saw a lot of posts on Seibertron saying that they were voting for Wheeljack, and some of the smaller sites like tformers had a lot of support for him as well.

    Arcee didn't seem to have a lot of support from other sites. Even if she doesn't win, I'm pretty sure she'll be auto-inducted next year

    Rodimus has the least support of the 5 on this site, however some of the other sites had a good amount of support for him. I still think that he has the least likely chance of winning. But once again, he'll probably just get auto-inducted next year.


    So, as I see it, it seems like it's between Sky-Byte, BW Megatron, and Wheeljack.

    Still say Swindle should have been there and won.

    I'm sure he'll get his chance in a couple of years, once Hasbro forgets about the funpub thing being associated with him
