Depends on the character...for RotF Scouts 'cos they're chock-full of tiny goodness.
Lugnut should have been Leader class dammit.
Scout/Basic. While it's a neglected size, I feel that Hasbro knows how to do that size best. Deluxe is a close second.
Anything larger is loaded with often poor gimmicks and (in Australia, at least), usually overpriced.
I love the deluxe class but I'm fond of bigger toys as I kinda feel good when I have my hands full. :)
+1! Hear out this fancry Hasbro!Quote:

Scouts and Deluxes on the other hand I'll happily pay full price for.
*puts hands up* i dont care how much as long as i get it rather than fighting for it from the little kiddies and had a hard time looking for it later on the sale. but if i can get it cheaper why not :D:cool:Quote:

Same here. This is why I prefer the bigger toys.Quote:

Alternators and binaltech are the better balanced ones. Not too big or small, highly poseable and complex enough to make transforming satisfying. Although price isn't very attractive.
Yeah, that's why I paid full price for my TF1 movie Megatron, but I still don't think that the toy itself is worth the $100 that I paid, whereas I do feel that I get more value for my dollar with a $30 Deluxe. The problem with hunting is that it consumes time and often money for transportation (commuting or driving around), so sometimes getting something on sale is negated when you think about the time and transportation-cost you used spending extra weeks or months hunting for an elusive toy. Having said that, most Leaders aren't elusive - being big and expensive they will sit around on a shelf for longer. If I see an elusive carded toy and it's a bit more expensive, then I'm more likely to grab it. But there's a limit to this... I grabbed Universe Galvatron when I saw him for $35 - paid an extra $5 because I'd already been hunting for this toy for ages. When I was looking for Animated Swindle, I found him first at Myer for $40 -- passed it. No way I'd pay that for a freakin' Deluxe. Eventually got him for $30 at Target a month or so later.Quote:
