    what transformers toy has really made you consider leaving the franchise because it was that bad? Like my 'best tf toy ever?' thread, any reasons are acceptable. Mine is Armada Skywarp. Like Starscream, he sucks as posture. I did a bit of research but never came across this fact. My fave tf character ever with the crappest mould possible. =[


    BTW! Joint first is also Universe Hotrod! My God he is crap! Who else has this figure???

    I admire your taste in toys and music too.

    Injector fails on Alt mode, robot mode, and the transformation between the two.

    At least Armada Sideswipe has a semi-decent alt mode.


    Start: Remove 11 parts from plane.
    Step 1: Flip out feet, arms, fold nosecone to reveal head.
    Finish: Replace 8 of the alt mode parts, add 4 new ones and pray the rest of them don't go missing.

    Joking about agreeing with you or about RID Bruticus?

    If its the latter, no way am I joking. That mold was dogshit-tastic.

    I want to say Universe Ironhide/Ratchet would be up there, but honestly, I kinda like the mold, despite its glaring flaws.

    My temporary vote is probably for any and all of the first generation Beast Wars Basic figures. Look! It's a robot under an animal! Pop the spring-loaded tail and it's transformed...yay. Now it's a robot with ninety pounds of animal on its back.

    Come to think of it, didn't Omegus do a Plastic Addict review of Bruticus? I had to look the toy up to remember which one it was. :D  Yeah, that thing is...scary at best.

    You only really need to remove the landing gear and missle launchers when going from alt-robot. And the only parts you have to reattach are the missle launchers and the fists >_>
