I noticed how on in the news article it says "discuss", not "vote", but discuss who you'd like to see nominated for the fans' choice 4th slot. Which leads me to believe it'll be up to the TFW staff to decide which characters will be submitted to Hasbro as TFW's nominees, and not the members votes. Which is a very wise decision considering last year. So to that end here are my nominees:

Beast Wars Optimus Primal and Megatron

What with the "rumor" of Gary Chalk and David Kaye being guests at this years BotCon, this would be the most opportune time to nominate both of the characters that they are known and loved for.

Beast Wars Rattrap

Another great character from BW and fan favourite of many. If Optimus and Megatron don't win, I hope Rattrap does because BW needs all the love it can get these days. And hopefully if Hasbro sees that a BW character has won the Hall of Fame fan choice 3 out of the first 3 years in a row, then maybe they'll think, "Hm. There's something here. Maybe we should show some BW love and make damned BW Generations figures already!" Plus it would be a hat trick for Scott McNeil, and maybe they'll invite him to BotCon as well and we'll get half the freaking cast there at one show!  

Robots In Disguise Scourge

One of my personal all-time favourite characters. He's just so badass and so awesome he inspired a trend of repainting Optimus Prime, and other prominent characters, figures black. Because afterall, how do you make a figure better? Paint it black! Just think of all the great repaints we might not have gotten if it wasn't for the granddaddy of them all, Poppa Scourge!

Sixshot

And last but certainly not least, another character near and dear to my heart. Again, an opportune time to nominate this character. With a reissue just announced and a third party Hexatron on the way, this is chance to say to Hasbro, "Hey! What haven't YOU done a new Sixshot figure yet?" And show another greatly overlooked character some much needed love.

Other honorable mentions:
Star Saber
Arcee
Sideways(Armada)
Bulkhead
Rodimus Prime
Ultra Magnus
Alpha Trion
Tarantulas
Wheeljack
Goryu
Kakuryu
Sentinel Prime

 

I'd go for Bulkhead. It would be nice to get some new blood into the HoF and as far as reoccuring characters go he's probably the newest addition to that list.

I also support Erector, if that's happening again.

 

Guess it's time to dig this out again...


Feel free to use this pic. But be aware I may update it w/ a better 'shopped pic of Rattrap (now that my 'shopping skills are better), which will affect anyone using the original image URL.

My reasoning for Rattrap

I'd go for Wheeljack, too.

If we're doing 5 again, let's see...

Tarantulas

Wheeljack
Arcee
Bulkhead
Lockdown

 

Bulkhead is fine with me, or lockdown. Yay, some new blood

 

Arcee

Between G1, The Movies, Animated, and Prime there is plenty material for an awesome induction video.

 

This x1000

 

My votes go to Sideways, Rattrap, Sky-Byte, Bulkhead and Arcee.

 

Owns Owns Owns Owns.



This campaign is really heating up fast, and there's some great choices coming forward so far. This is going to get interesting!

 

Who I'd nominate:
Wheeljack or Prowl, for they have contributed a lot in the war against the 'Cons.
I think also Ultra Magnus, but the first two definitely deserve it!

 

G1 Bludgeon
G1 Inferno

 

Kup...though Optimus Primal is good and makes sense if Gary Chalk is going to be there anyway.

 

THIS. Let's send a message.

 

Swindle.

My nominations in order of preference:

Wheeljack(fave G1 character)

Impactor(he died TWICE to save others!)

Ravage(most useful/successful Decepticon in history)

Wreck-Gar(who doesn't love the leader of the Junkions?)

 

Rattrap
Skybyte

 

I will seriously get behind this.

 

I'm going to say Prowl
