Hasbro Fan Built Bot Poll

UPDATE: Alright guys Round 2 of Hasbro's fan built bot poll has begun

----------------------------------------------------------------------

exciting new guys, as part of Hasbro's Transformers 30th anniversary celebrations, they have announced the "Fan Built Bot Poll"
fans can vote on a variety of features including allegiance, weapon, alt mode, colour scheme and personality to create an all new character who will appear in an upcoming IDW comic and also be made into a toy for the generations line (with the development of which shown on their website through design sketches and stuff)
you can cast 1 vote a day
to vote visit this link http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/e...T-BOT-POLL.cfm
so what are you waiting for? get voting

April 18th: Decepticon Spaceship w/ Spear who is Purple/Bronze and a Wildman..

I've gone for a wildman Decepticon truck with a sword in red and black :)

Hope the execution is good on the build, after the rotf figures I couldn't select helicopter, motorcycle or beast figures after what they have tried to dish out with Beast Hunters. No faith that the toy would actually be any good.

Like some of the colour options, certainly different. Weapons too, a cybertronian taser sounds intriguing.

At the moment an Autobot character is in the lead, we haven't had a new Autobot character since Drift, so I don't like the recent history there, but there's been some success with Decepticon characters like Oilspill and Lockdown, so ill keep voting for different coloured Decepticons with anti jet modes, just to counter all the G1 jets that will get voted for. :D

This is a fantastic concept from Hasbro.
Real Fan interaction, even limited input like this is very interesting.

So far, I've selected an autobot jet, blue and silver, with nunchucks whos cranky.

I'm thinking a guy that flys in and lands in the thick of the battle looking for nothing but Hand to Hand combat. a sky ninja if you like.

At least Hasbro learnt to not risk certain fansites sabotaging their projects, by having set options this time instead of letting fans submit suggestions.

A 'green and gold' option sounds interesting... give it an Australian accent to it, and we have a winner. :p

Wait hold on, does this mean Springer's an Aussie bloke all along?

I voted for
Autobot
Construction Vehicle
Flamethrower
Orange and White
Grumpy
but I'll probably end up voting for something completely different tomorrow haha

it'd be nice if there was more to vote for (maximals? predacons? females? Sea Beasts? Trains? more weapons? more personalities?) of well, still a pretty nice selection to chose from

although, what's the point in voting when this guy probably won't end up making it to Australia (like all the other generations figures)
