    So with Kingdom almost done and with Legacy being revealed this week. I am wondering which part of WFC was the best in regards to figures?

    There's too much to unpack. War For Cybertron brought much to the table.

    For me -

    The best part of WFC: The remake of the Autobot cars and (so far) Diaclone versions.

    The second best part of WFC: Commander Class!

    The third best part of WFC: Shockwave.

    The fourth best part of WFC: 1986 movie characters getting bumped to Studio Series for the inclusion of Beast Wars characters.

    I felt Kingdom was the best,
    Siege was probably the weakest especially when according to leakers earthrise was the first they came up with meaning they knew most of siege would be replaced with better molds the year after

    Despite some QC mess ups, Kingdom definitely feels like the highlight of the trilogy, cause while Siege had generally the best distribution and QC, as well as a bunch of great figures, it also shares the problem with Earthrise and to a lesser extend Kingdom of some shady business practices with the whole "here's the G1 cast, now replace them with Earth mode versions" thing. Earthrise was a bit of a mess comparatively to the other parts of the trilogy with the shoddy distribution and poor QC, and subjectively it was the most boring of the 3 for me since it didn't have the cyberpunk stylings of Siege or the Beast Wars of Kingdom. But Kingdom has been fun, and I've collected a majority of the figures from this line and enjoyed basically all of them, save certain exceptions Tracks just sucks I don't care what you say

    So for me it goes:
    >Kingdom
    >Siege
    >Earthrise

    I really loved all 3 lines and I loved how they were assorted with a little something for everyone. I voted for Earthrise just because it had just slightly more of my favorites including Sky Lynx, Scorponok, Snapdragon and the modulators.

    Kingdom was far and away the most interesting to me in terms of character lineup. Like not even close.

    I chose "other" because Kingdom is what I bought the least of and I wound up not liking a couple of those purchases at all. I didn't factor in Selects nor exclusives because, that wouldn't be a fair comparison. I also didn't factor in Battle Masters nor Micromasters because, I didn't buy any other than the "Selects Soundwave Spy Patrol 3rd Unit".

    just a dope trilogy. I've replaced just about every classics/generations/universe figure on my shelf with one from this trilogy. I don't know where they'll go from here. my shelf is pretty much where I want it. I'm satisfied. I probably could quit collecting today and be happy...but I won't.

    For me Kingdom. The main reason is I got back into collecting this year and have been having so much fun.

    Earthrise for me, because it gave me so many good versions of favorite characters. Kingdom was a nice attempt, but it feels like there's room for improvement for the BW guys. And the fossilizers fell flat for me. And the G1 updates more mostly meh ( except Cyclonus)

    I like them all too! These are the toys i've been waiting for since my childhood. Definite improvements over the old lines. There were exceptional figures across all siege, earthrise and kingdom though i have a preference for figures with no arm/leg hollow gaps. Kingdom primal and rodimus, earthrise prime, siege Starscream, ss wreckgar and so many others were near perfect!

    I had to sell off a lot of my generations collection just before the Prim Wars Trilogy started. So the WFC gave me a chance to get a lot of figures that I sold off but they are also so much better than the figures that I had. I've loved the whole WFC but even though I was just the right age for Beast Wars and those characters mean a lot to me so I have to say Kingdom was my favorite part. Although Siege did help me improve my painting and cleaning skills getting off the battle damage off of those figures.

    Siege has better plastic quality, or so it seems to my hands. I regularly pick up Siege figures way more than other trilogy figures, because they just seem to be of higher quality IMO. Plus, I give it credit for having something interesting and unique going, with the main G1 crew being in the new Cybertronian look, but having faithful updates for those characters who have barely gotten anything, such as Flywheels, Spinister, and Apeface. Doing this helped fill holes in the existing CHUG lineup without having to rehash the entire thing. But the whole idea was quickly scrapped, and now a bunch of us are burnt out and bored of G1.

    TL;DR: Siege figures felt nicer and it had some originality, so it wins for me.

    I already said Kingdom was my favorite but I totally agree with this, and Siege definitely comes in as a close second. I love having the main G1 cast in an aesthetic that matches the futuristic design sensibilities of the season 3 and beyond G1 characters. The Siege incarnations of everyone are the main version of the G1 cast in my Gens collection.
