Similar to my other thread. I am interested in your opinions on the top ten molds from the Cybertron toyline. Again all thoughts and opinions on appreciated.

*NOTE: If a similar thread exist mods please delete, thanks!

 

Optimus Prime's Leader Class mold - Possibly one of the best Prime toys as it is
Galvatron - Amazing looking figure
Those were really the only two I had.

 

In no particular order;

Primus
Leader Class Prime
Scourge
Galaxy Force Starscream
Evac
Hot Shot
Cyb Def Red Alert
Cyb Def Scattorshot
Cyb Def Hot SHot
Landfill
Wing Saber
Downshift
Sideways
Vector Prime
Hardtop

Oh wait . . . you wanted top ten? Lol.

Of the three lines that made up the Unicron trilogy Cybertron was the strongest line with the most number of great molds. And the Cybertron gimmick with the Cyber keys was the least intrusive gimmick too.

 

Sideways: It manages to walk that fine, fine line between looking alien and still looking like a vehicle. Plus very posable and great looking.

Armorhide: Just an awesome, awesome little Scout. He has one of the best uses of the Cyberkey gimmick, completely unobtrusive and it enhances the figure. He even has storage for it!

... okay, I'm getting bored and may finish this later.

 

Thanks for the input. How do you guys feel about Cybertron Soundwave?

 

Optimus Prime
Wingsaber
Vector Prime
Primus
Supreme Starscream
Metroplex
Galvatron
Crosswise
Sideways
Soundwave

... And I'm the damn fool that only has 2 figures from this list.  

 

Leader Optimus Prime
Metroplex
Voyager Starscream
Primus
Leader Megatron
Wing Saber
Voyager Evac
Voyager Vector Prime
Menasor
Legends Starscream (it's the one Cybertron Legends toy I really like)

 

Scrap Metals (nice little army builders)
Defence Hot Shot
Overhaul (Would love a Crankcase repaint)
Clocker (Why was it not repainted as Hot Rod?)
Hard Top (hate the head but would love a remold as Ruckus)
Vector Prime
Supreme Starscream
Nemesis Breaker
Skywarp
Voyager Starscream

 

For me (in no particular order):

Evac
Downshift
Armorhide
Starscream
Vector Prime
Snarl
Landmine
Primus
CD Scattershot
Hot Shot (regular, not CD)

I'm surprised to see Wing Saber show up on some lists, I've always found that mold to be a clunky, irritating mess.

 

I thought U Was Talking About FOC And WFC

 

It's the only one I have so far, but do not skip out of Sideways/ Noisemaze.

 

Leader Optimus
Galvatron
Primus
Vector Prime
Soundwave
Sideways
Scattorshot
Scrapmetal
Lugnuts
Undermine(If not only for having a bitchin beast mode. Spinosaurus, yo!)

 

Noisemaze (and his redecos)
Voyager Starscream (and his redecos)
Leader Optimus Prime
Primus (and his redecos)
Dark Crumplezone
Dirt Boss
Hot Shot (and his redecos)
Scrapmetal (and his redecos)
Vector Prime (and his redecos)
Scourge (and his redeco)

Which makes 10. Cybertron Defense Hot Shot/Exigeyser is just shy of the cut, though I could replace Scourge with it rather easily, depends on my mood and what you're basing it on.

 

Leader Optimus Prime
Scrapmetal
Voyager Starscream
Downshift
Crosswise
Hardtop
CD Hot Shot
Vector Prime
Sideways
Armorhide

 

Oh that's very difficult. Leader Optimus is amazing and so is Primus. I really like Hot Shot's mold but I have the Hasbro Excellion. Soundwave's cool and so is Sideways. I can go for hours orgasming about the Cybertron toyline.

 

For Cybertron molds, not repaints or repaints from Armada/Energon, I would say:

Leader Class Optimus Prime
Deluxe Hot Shot
Ultra Leobreaker - Some added articulation would help make it better.
Ultra Scourge - Great looking mold, but really suffers with arm articulation. This one had potential.
Voyager Mudflap
Voyager Soundwave
Voyager & Supreme Starscream
Supreme Class Metroplex

I didn't own them all so I can't say if they were good or not. I'm just listing the best ones that I owned.

 

Too fiddly.

 

I'd like him a lot more if it wasn't for the inward-bending knees/legs.

 

Didn't care much for it. The Transformation was too fiddley, neither mode as all that strong and if I had to use one word to describe it, it would be "restricted".

 

Thanks again for the input. I have only owned the Armorhide mold (Botcon Huffer) and the Sideways mold (Sideways, Botcon Scourge & the Sweeps, Universe 2.0 Ratbat) and absolutely love those figures. And sorta been wondering if there were other figures I should check out. Especially if they could fit in with my Classics collection.
