Underrated Transformers Toys Thread

...plus no gold plastic! Shame they omitted the hand gun/launchers.

I reckon G1 Thunder Clash is also underrated. Yes, the colours are awful (typical early 90s fad) -- but the mega missile gimmick is really fun.

Skyquake was one of my favorites when I was a kid. He was huge! Plus had a fairly accurate bomb targeting system lol and missiles that fired pretty far. Of the turbomasters/predators thunderclash was the only one I didn't have.

My underrated vote goes to the duocons - battle trap and flywheels. As a 6 year old I loved them. They went everywhere with me.

Duocons are awesome. I must say another advantage Skyquake has over Starscream seems to be the Predator scope gimmick. For some reason the smaller Predator jets don't work as well w/ MW Starscream's scope as well as w/ Skyquake's. By that I mean it's harder to get them to interlock, and once you do it's damn hard to disengage. I tried it once and it felt like I was going to break Starscream's scope. Never tried that again and I don't recommend anyone else try it. I don't know if Hasbro slightly retooled the scope on Starscream to make it less compatible w/ the Predators or if it's some kind of slight mould degradation (probably the latter I suspect).
