    Since Swindle or Erector aren't on the list, Unicron gets my vote.

    If Swindle is added to the Hall of Fame, does that also induct Movie Swindle and Armada Swindle?

    No, it wouldn't, based on past precedent.

    Really? From what I understand every version of Optimus, Megatron, Starscream, etc were inducted. That's what tfwiki seems to imply.

    My understanding is that it's not by name, per se, but character. In other words, Armada/Cybertron Red Alert would not be inducted if G1/IDW Red Alert were to be inducted, as they're rather different characters/tropes/archetypes. And truth be told, Hasbro could argue that A/C Red Alert is basically Ratchet and therefore already represented in the Hall of Fame.

    They may be named Swindle, but that doesn’t mean they are the same character as G1 Swindle. G1 Scourge, RID Scourge, and Cybertron Scourge aren’t the same character, nor are they different iterations of the same character, but they have the same name.

    G1 Optimus and Movie Optimus are different iterations of the same character.

    Whenever there's a female on the list the female wins. I'm not sexist or anything but it's tiresome.

    Edit: okay Agree didn't win that one time, but Windblade, Victorion etc.

    (I have Windblade Chromia and Slipstream on my shelf right now)

    And yet Blackarachnia did not win either of the two times she made it to the final three in the HOF vote.

    HOF Character Nominee: Unicron (of all the choices listed, I feel he is the most significant character)

    Toy of the Year Nominee: POTP Volcanicus (finally got him after 33 years of waiting)

    Here's to hoping Blackarachnia wins. All great choices, but this one is my first in this bunch

    I love that BA is winning. I just really, reeeeeally want to see them do her masterpiece toy. And if winning the HOF vote helps that along, then all the better.

    I'm sure she'll get an MP regardless. She's too prominent a character not to.
