    I can't vote but if I could:

    Male
    Independant
    Slammoth (Because that is fucking awesome and all other choices are wrong).
    Devastator (meh to all three)

    I can see why people would vote Slammoth. But for me that just screams Beast Combiner with a giant hammer or maul. And sadly we aren't getting that.

    Hasbro wouldn't offer the option if they didn't think it would warm pegs. Especially since we're voting for what we want to buy. So if the fan votes says they would buy a female set, then I would assume all of those voters would in turn buy a female set.

    The more I see people sharing their ideas for "Slammoth" the more I hope we get *that* at a later date as well.

    No kidding. Abominus, Predaking, Piranacon, Computron, Menasor, Defensor, the list goes on an on. If anything, for as awesome a name as "Slammoth" is, it's the least combiner sounding one in the lot.

    It'd fit in awesome with Magnaboss and Tripredacus in beast wars, but it's not going to be a beast combiner...which to me would make it a waste of a name. And Quakebreak sounds too much to me like Landfill, which (personally) never felt like a Combiner name. If anything, Quakebreak sounds like the bot that forms Slammoth's torso.

    Now that I think about it, give me Quakebreak and Landfill as two members of an Autobot team that form Slammoth. I'd buy that!

    WOAH WOAH WOAH, hang on. That can't be right because it was mid Ferbruary before I found CW. Arcee and Chromia were supposed to come out in late October if I remember right. Hell, most stores haven't even gotten the CW wave in yet. They could have gotten that wave in 2 and 1/2 months if your idea was correct.

    if i could vote, i'd go with
    female
    victorion
    independent
    devastator

    the reason i'd go with devs is because i imagine that the powers of either raising gravity or teleportation could even the odds for the female combiner

    So you're saying Silverbolt won the torso vote? ;) 

    Heh. I wonder if each of the three names were intended to be paired with one of the three torso options.

    Silverbolt = Victorion
    Prime = Slammoth
    Hotspot = Quakebreak.

    What's that? More choices with no context of the previous results? Great! I'm sure a name like Quakebreak would be great for a earthy colored land vehicle. I feel like those names could be really hard to fit on certain molds. Like the only good name for the jet would be Victorion. unless it's like... the Scattorshot remold who likes to slam/break into things / the ground.

    Uhg! So fed up with every round! So frustrating! There's no brakes on this train!

    Man, could you imagine if they showed us the mold layout for something like this, told us any remolding availability and then {like I said last time} handled it like the Hall of Fame poll and let us all do whatever we wanted, voted for the best, and each website contributed their top [whatever number from 1-5 that Hasbro wants].
    Maybe they could just have 3 complete designs to vote for in public, but kids could still participate on a design on the various fan websites. I dunno.

    It's funny that no one has brought up Victarion Greyjoy from Game of Thrones yet.

    On-topic: Victorion is far and away the best name of the choices in the poll, male or female.

    I chose:
    Male
    Victorion
    Leader
    Galvatronus

    I think that name is AMAZING and to get a nemesis for galvatronus would be kickass. While i do grow tired of people just wanting to vote female to just shoehorn more females. Victorion would work great as male or female so in this stance the gender does not matter to me. I just hope that the name victorion wins

    I actually like all the names, but I feel Victorion would be most fitting for a female combiner made of vehicles. Hopefully the other two get used in the future for other characters though (especially Slammoth for a beastformer).

    Well, if the molds are straight repaints, I'll probably reference them as male, regardless of box or IDW fiction.

    But yeah, this is exactly what I voted for, too.
