    Seeing how the game has a unique take on the G1 style with more of an alien feel which character designs from the games do you like the best?

    Here's my list:

    The Dinobots: I'm not going to lie. This has got to be my favourite design for the Dinobots ever. They still have thier G1 aspects but with a more powerful feel to them. And that they can also fit into the Prime verse too. :D 

    Insecticons: Again like the Dinobots they have a good fusion of bulk and slenderness that gives them character.

    Shockwave: A fairly strong G1 homage to the character which is good for any neo G1 verse.

    FOC Megatron: This may sound unpopular but I actually like how he appears in FOC. He looks powerful and impressive with Dark Energon showing through his body and having some Prime influence in his look like in the eyes and alt mode.

    Trypticon: Simply a marvel to behold. I love how he envokes his G1 version yet gives him a makeover to make him look even more impressive and intemidating. :) 

    Slipstream: She pretty much has a very attractive look to her as well as a cool look in both robot and jet mode need I say more? :D

    Perceptor; I just like his laser pointer platform alt mode.
    Grimlock; other dinobots are fine, but they don't drive me crazy excited like Grimlock's
    FoC's post resurrection Megatron. He looks so evil.
    Shockwave- Mainly the one briefly shown by the audiotape that shows his big gun.
    Combaticons- love their more uniform color appearance and Bruticus is a beast.
    Omega Supreme, Metroplex, and Trypticon- High Moon is really good at making big scales look good.
    Jazz- just so smooth, stylish, and perfectly captures his character.

    That's it for now, I just love these designs.

    both of Megsy's designs kick ass

    of course the Combaticons'

    Metroplex

    both of Optimus's

    Shockwave

    and Kickback's.

    i don't like Omega's cause he look too fat and has stubby legs. that and he's really boxy and sticks out like a sore thumb

    Shockwave is hands down my favorite design. Next would be Jazz, both Optimus', Bruticus, Brawl, and both Megatron's. I love that Aligned Megatron, in WFC, FOC, and TFP, also strongly homages Animated Megs' Cybertronian mode.

    The Dinobots are freaking dinosaurs, so naturally I include them.

    Grimlock. He's just plain awesome. It's a very sleek, yet hulking and menacing design.

    Optimus for similar reasons. I love the shine on him, and I love his arm designs.

    Mostly, I like designs where there's a lot of really shiny areas. Like 'Bee, Starscream or Ratchet.

    This, with the notable exception of slapping the TFP Cliffy head on Cliffy. That's my only bitch about the WFC/FOC stuff.

    Practically all of them, but my favorites will always be my mp characters.

    Sideswipe has a great style.
    War Megatron is my favorite Megatron design EVER.
    War Optimus is fantastic.
    Starscream and the seekers are the perfect modernization of their g1 modes (faces could be better though).
    Shockwave also has his best design ever in my eyes.
    Soundwave is fantastic.
    Jazz is great.

    Really it would be a shorter list if I listed what I didn't like.

    Barricade (why weren't his parts in FOC!?)
    Slipstream

    Overall, Magnus needs a redesign, and Warpath's design would be more kickass if it wasn't shoved in your face in MP in both WFC and FOC.

    No order:

    Snarl
    WFC Prime
    Shockwave
    Swoop
    Grimlock
    Soundwave
    Ironhide
    Ratchet
    WFC Megs (would still have liked more G1 homages though, don't know why that didn't happen with his FOC re-build)
    Warpath
    Bumblebee
    Jazz
    Omega Supreme
    Metroplex
    Trypticon


    There's tons of great ones really, can't praise the designers enough for what they've done..only a few mis-steps (mainly Seeker design, FOC Prime and Megatron) Slag's bot-mode leaves a lot to be desired (Triceratops form is amazing though) also, looks a lot less G1-ish than the other Dinos.
