What are your favourite toys of each of these Series?

[bowspearer]

Ok here goes. I'm also including pre-TFs as well as some of those weren't made into G1

Pre-TFs: MC-18 Magneman. The gimmick is inspired while it manages to also shrink down the basic design of Soundwave at the same time. Simply brilliant.

Gen1: All the Turbomasters and Predators (I'm naming 12 here- deal with it ). They managed to take the G1 toyline in Hasbro distribution markets and breathe enough life into it to give us G2. The line has intelligent gimmicks and great designs with classic styling.

If it wasn't for this line coming out, I probably would have walked away from Transformers at age 12.

Alternator/Binaltech/Kissplay/Alternity - Tracks and Hound. Both designs managed to stay true to the G1 originals but

Gen2: Dreadwing, Tank Megatron and Laser Rod Prime. All 3 are simply brilliant in their designs.

Beast Wars - Polar Claw and Optimal Optimus.

Robots in Disguise/Car Robots - Mach Alert, Speedbreaker, Brave Max, Omega Prime, JRX, Build King. So many brilliant toys in the line. Another line where I have to list more than a select few.

Armada/Micron Legend - Overload

Energon/Superlink - Optimus Prime, Wing Saber and Omega Supreme - the most awesome Sentai style toy to ever grace a Transformers line.

Cybertron/Galaxy Force - Cybertron Defense Team. They're not a homage of any kind and manage to hold their own as original characters and toys brilliantly.

Animated - N/A (never really grabbed me- Ultra Magnus if I had to pick one)

Classic-verse/Henkei/Generations/Universe2/etc - Prowl, Bumblebee, Optimus Prime, Megatron, Seekers, Jetfire, Wheeljack. Brilliant Homages all round.

Movie-verse - Bludgeon and Seaspray (purely because they belong in the Classics line)

Masterpiece - US & JP - Masterpiece Magnus (he's not really ultra without his trailer ).

I just realised we could pick up to ten in each series, so I added some more!

Gen1
Autobot Car Jazz - purely biased, I have relatively little interest in other G1s
Ravage - I want to give a special mention to ravage though because when I was nine I had an upsized orange and yellow knock off ravage that I took everywhere. So the original has got to be just as good, right?

Alternator/Binaltech/Kissplay/Alternity
BT Meister (white)
Alternators Prowl
Alternity (Brilliant White Pearl) Ultra Magnus - the only one I've opened, displays great in both modes.
Alternity Super Black Convoy
Alternity Diamond Black Megatron

Autobot Car Jazz - purely biased, I have relatively little interest in other G1s

The original 1984 G1 Jazz toy is a really well designed figure for the standards of its day. If you like the engineering of that toy, I'd recommend checking out other Transformers that came from the Diaclone Car Robot series, like 1984 Optimus Prime and the 1984-85 Autobot cars, oh, and Ultra Magnus too.

It was toys like these that blew our socks off when Transformers first came out in the 1980s and really laid the foundation for what the Transformers franchise is today.
