    Me too! Seriously, each of them are so different, yet they all work together nearly perfectly! Too bad Bruticus is dumb as a boulder. I love their personalities. Onslaught is a perfectionist strategist, Brawl is a loud drill sergeant-esque character, Swindle is a sleazy, greedy arms dealer, Vortex is an insane interrogator, and Blast Off is an prideful space captain.

    I always loved that episode where the stuff happened. You know, the one with those characters? And then they did the thing and stuff happened? That was the best.

    I also remain hopeful that one day a series will come along that gives proper respect to Defensor and the protectobots.

    I say trans-FORM-er, which I think is how Victor Caroli used to pronounce it in the bits of narration and commercial bumpers. But it wasn't even universal across G1, as I distinctly remember at least once Spike pronounced it "TRANS-form-er"

    I liked the Decepticons more in g1 than the Autobots. They were bigger and cooler.

    I was a fanboi Orion pax-style. Jets and sound wave absolutely the best.

    I secretly love every g1 cartoon character individually. They were all so cool. So i need them all in MP scale.

    I want to build a MP scale metroplex shelf to recreate that awesome scene in fall of Cybertron....


    I still make the chi-chu-chu-chu noise whenever I transform them and quote the movie. My partner hums the theme after I've been watching it and will randomly shout '...hmmhnhmmh hmmhnnTHE DECEPTICONS!' it's cute

    Real talk for a sec, we need Dad Prime to come back.

    The stoic leader shtick is cool and all, but that was never what made him such a beloved character in my opinion. It was his compassion and heart. G1 nailed that aspect of Optimus for me.

    Right? The Combaticons are my personal favorite combiner team. They made such an impact for me when they were first introduced in "Starscream's Brigade".
