prowl

 

I really hope Bulkhead is the joke nomination or just filler. but anyways prowl or roddie maybe even BW megs for me

 

BW Megs. Yessss....

 

Swindle for sure

 

Swindle!

 

No joke nominations, Bulkhead's a perfectly respectable choice given he's probably the best new character added to the franchise in the last few years.

 

He's easily getting my votes, yes...

 

I couldn't decide between two of my favourites: Arcee and Rodimus.

So... I chose the only character that has made an impact back in '86.  

 

Like last year, I owe Locustreign money so Swindle it is.

 

He's got the touch. He's got the Power. He's got my vote. Rodimus.

 

sWINdle! sWINdle! sWINdle!

 

Decided to vote for Swindle, because there are already seven good guys in there but only five bad guys, so another villain would add more of a balance. That and Swindle is awesome. 

 

Wheeljack go go go! ...

 

Voted for Minerva.

 

I have to disagree. While Bulkhead's a great character, we're voting on the Hall of Fame of a franchise that spans almost 30 years. Enshrinees should be timeless, influential characters. He will be worthy someday, but I don't think Bulkhead has reached that status yet

Having said that, I voted for Wheeljack.

 

Swindle all the way.

If there was a second choice, it would have been Minerva.

 

I'd argue that Lugnut is more GLORIOUS but point is entirely valid   Bulkhead ain't a joke.

 

Bulkhead is willing to paint his own HOF portrait.

- economical.
