    I'd have to say that the latest batch of Movie Figures is the best so far. The Allspark Power wave has the better figures in my book than the 1st couple of waves of Movie Figures that we saw.

    Look at figures like Incinerator, Landmine, Stockade, Nightwatch Prime, and Deep Desert Brawl and Hasbro is obviously saving the best Movie figures for the last waves.

    What do you think? Thanks for posting.

    For me it is obviously the last wave. But I still hope there'd be better toys as for The Sequel movie.

    most of the ones I like are from the originals. Like leader prime, voyager prime, 08 bumblebee, black ironhide, metalic ratchet(not sure if this is considered first wave) and the first leader brawl. The first leader brawl is one of the better transformers from any line.

    I've enjoyed both lines equally. There isn't anything particularly mind-blowing about the movie figures, but I've enjoyed the hell our of Wreckage and Stockade.

    I guess it depends on what you're basing the decision on. Articulation-wise, I would say the AllSpark line is better. Appearance-wise, I like the original line though.

    For 1st wave vs. 1st Allspark wave?

    Ugh, I'd say neither.

    I'd vote for the latter waves of the pre-allspark packaging by a long shot. Those with Longarm, Dropkick, 08BB.

    Most the first wave (other than leader Op) wasn't very hot and most the allspark line is repaints (Landmine and Incinerator are its only unique +s, if you like nightwatch Prime or any other repaints, shouldn't they be attributed to the first waves in which the molds came out?).

    They both have their ups and downs. Since both have a version of the Swindle mold*, neither is too high up :D ...

    Longarm, Dropkick, Arcee, and Concept BB are up there but not eligible for this comparison...

    Landmine and Stockade will forever be damn near the top. No question about it.

    I don't think I can decide. Honestly, they both have pluses and minuses that I don't want to calculate.

    *Since wave 1 and wave 2 were available on the release day, I'm counting them as being one wave

    First wave, the Allspark figures with the blue allspark paint apps look hideous, while some look overall better, some like incinerator just have awful color schemes.
