That would fall under merchandise, but even then, it's unofficial so it cannot count. City Commander is what's more commonly known as a garage kit.

It was just a shameless plug, no need to discuss the awards here. I'm just trying to divert some attention towards the awards where we'll see collectively what the best toys of the year were.
I'm not even sure what my top ten TFs of the year would be. I think I'd share some of STL's list but would never have even consider City Commander.
:D My original Lugnut post was in the "Animated Lugnut - Love it or Hate it??" thread:Quote:

Lugnut's autotransformations and mace are pure love melted into a plastic mold and solidified. Like the cyan, magenta, yellow and black of the printing process, Lugnut is perfect four-colour harmony. The fact that Lugnut cannot turn his head is a necessary single flaw, as in an Islamic rug, because only Primus is perfect (but Lugnut is the next best thing)."
Three guesses who my favourite Transformer was this year. (You won't need the second two guesses.)
I would like to place Animated Universe Time Warrior as #1 had HasTak bothered to make it. Grr!
Well as far as its packaging is concerned, City Commander is its own unique character with his own story!
However that was probably done just to get around the copyright and to give us the most awesome instructions concept we have ever seen. It would be cool of TakTom merged the instructions with their comics in such a way.
Okay, this thread didn't go the way I originally intended to. It was supposed to start a discussion of what people thought were the top 10 of 2008. Unless of course I was spot on, that is. (not that that happens very often, mind u)
Why wasn't Encore Sky Lynx at number 1? :mad:Quote:
