    Times that a recolor or a new version of a character looked better than the original? This applies to media and figures, so feel free to post your own custom repaints.

    I always preferred Transmetal Megatron's look over the original in the BW cartoon.

    I have the Planet X figure with this deco but I figured it'd be best if I linked an image of the official toy for the purposes of this thread.

    Fully agree. Cybertron Downshift has a great color scheme.

    Dragon Megatron is great, but Cryotek is even better.

    Yeah, that's why he's Combat Hero Optimus Prime.

    G2 Sideswipe over regular Sideswipe. In particular, Animated's take on it:

    Also, Energon Tidal Wave over either of his Armada color schemes:

    Looks so crisp. While I do like his normal Transmetal look, too, this simpler deco works wonders on him.

    And already mentioned here, Energon Tidal Wave. Something about the bright greens and the garish lightning bolts on him just work for me
