    Yeah, I like Cyberverse, but no. Mine can't even stay in vehicle mode completely-- the canopy keeps springing up. It's a rather frustrating toy, even if the gimmick is cool.

    I’m sorry but the Porsche is a way better product. I know we are TF fans but let’s not kid ourselves here….

    Kind of unfair there\'s a $150 toy in there. By that rule its obviously Unicron with all the drama around him.

    THIS gets to be in the vote?  Not like one of many proper figures in the main toyline or even the normal Cyberverse figures?  Wow.

    There\'s literally a better transforming figure on that list too. Bewildering choice by hasbro. 

    Vote Lego lol.

    I have to agree. There is no way a toy that looks like this should have been put forward as best of 2021. On this occasion a better toy from someone else deserves to win.

    I note that despite being in the best toy vehicle category, Bumblebee is only shown in robot mode and not vehicle mode. I also note that Hasbro wasted their text box advertising the tv show rather than talking about what the toy can actually do. Given that there is also a separate action figure toy category, Bumblebee falls into that more so than the vehicle category. I guess Hasbro run out of slots they could have for the action figure category.

    The Porsche should win. I don’t think it being a $150 toy should count against it. Matchbox put forward a $9.99 toy as their competitor against the others to win best toy award. Some of these toy companies clearly aren’t putting their actual best product forward. Both being $49.99, I’d also say that the Playmobil Volkswagen bus looks far better than Bumblebee.

    Honestly as far as transforming toys go, that dinosaur looks like it has way more creativity, a much larger fun factor, and probably a more complicated (albeit still simple) transformation

    I'd vote for the shitty paw patrol thing before I'd vote for this POS.

    List is obviously rigged. Don't know why or what anyone would gain from it, but toy of the year this shit is NOT.

    It's worth clicking on the other categories if you are a toy lover, some great stuff in there. Cool to see Mini Brands Toys on there, been buying tons of those. Sad to not see Snap Ships anywhere, they launched right at the end of 2019 and would have benefited greatly from a robust convention season.
