    Trying to narrow it to 3 is difficult! But I'd have to say

    Generations Drift
    Generations Wheeljack
    RTS Jazz

    Special mentions go to
    Classics Optimus Prime
    Classics Megatron
    Generations Skyshadow
    Universe Sideswipe
    Generations Kup
    Generations Scourge

    Have to go with:

    TT Tracks
    TT Jazz
    TT Blurr

    Honerable mentions to Generations Wheeljack, Thrust, Dirge and Lugnut.

    In all honesty, i absolutely loved this line both TT and Hasbro. Choosing 3 favs was a tough choice.

    The biggest drawback for Jazz is that his chest doesn't lock in. If it weren't for that it'd be hard to beat. Windcharger is also a great figure that kind of popped up out of nowhere.

    Aaah, they're all so good it's hard to narrow it down.

    I'd go...
    + Classics Optimus Prime
    + Henkei Megatron
    + Classics Jetfire

    Hmm, I think:
    WFC Optimus Prime
    Sideswipe
    Scourge

    Has no one else mentioned WFC Optimus Prime? That's a great, complex, figure.

    Honourable mention to Cyclonus (fantastically awesome robot mode but the legs in vehicle mode let it down) and the Seeker mould (since I have over a dozen of it!).

    I started collecting because of this line, well, mainly classics and universe 2.0, but it all falls under the same umbrella. I blame Rodimus!
    My three favourites for display, in order, would be:

    United Jazz - Chalk another one up for this guy! The best representation of G1 Jazz to date. He looks extra sharp thanks to the metallic details. Solid silhouette.
    United Stepper - Basically flawless. Striking deco and details, love the colours. Displays perfect.
    Henkei Smokescreen - Classic transformer form with an interesting and understated colourscheme. Just lovely.

    To strictly talk about Generations only figures, I'd go with Thundercracker, Thunderwing and Thunder Sky Shadow.

    Honestly though, this line has so many awesome figures. I'm in agreement with a lot of people's choices so far. Lugnut, Mirage, Cyclonus, Tracks are all fantastic too. Gosh, us ozformers have got some good taste!

    Slightly different. Alfes2010 has some good comparison shots on his blog. I think United looks a little nicer as it's missing the weird red/orange paint apps. Although, he could do with getting his "angry eyebrows" back. Sorry for cutting in Bidoof.

    Yes! This is super annoying on the RTS version, as with the Gift set redeco. They fixed this on the United Jazz though. I don't know how, but it works.

    I really like them all. Except WFC Bumblebee which I have thrown against the wall numerous times! but It's hard to pick the best.
