[KalEl]

Toys
-Fort Max
-Scorponok
-Ginrai

Comic Issues/stories
-Cant comment only just started reading cominc from any franchise recently...

Cartoon Episodes/stories
-I love the headmaster Story/gimmick so that series has a soft spot for me.

[Bidoofdude]

For me, it's:
Toys:
-Scorponok
-God Ginrai
-Chromedome

Can't say for comics since I haven't read them.

Cartoon/Episodes:
-Operation Cassette
-Scramble City (bonus)
-The Mystery of Planet Master

I have a more broad opinion, so many will probably have different ones to me.

[Tetsuwan Convoy]

Can't really buts out a top 3,

But best toy
STAR CONVOY!

Best Cartoon, tricky one, as I really enjoyed MasterForce and Victory quite a bit.
Victory wins due to the kick ass fight between Dezasarus and Star Sabre at the end.

COmic book?
Um, I like the compilation of comics that I picked up that is from some TV magazine apparently. Mainly because they actually provide some story for the Return of Convoy series. And a rather creepy looking Megatron!

[Shirokaze]

Toys
-God Ginrai

-Sixshot

Comics

Toys

• Scorponok
• Deszaras (WAY long-term Holy Grail #1)
• Overlord (WAY long-term Holy Grail #2)

Comic Issues/stories

• I can't say that I've read or even ever seen any Japanese Manga from this era.

Cartoon Episodes/stories

• Headmasters: Explosion on Mars! Scorponok Appears - (The unveiling of an awesome character & a favourite figure of mine )
• Headmasters: The Death of Ultra Magnus - (Fairly self explanatory, the battle between UM & Sixshot is just hilarious but so too the ensuing funeral! )
• Headmasters: Seibertron is in Danger! (Part 2) - (Rodimus, Kup & Blurr do something at the end of this episode that is completely bewildering & hence, entirely amazing! )
