As I get older I'm finding my tastes shifting away from the bigger more elaborate Transformers and, despite all my expectations, I am getting more into the sub deluxe sized figures. Basics (from the beast era, etc). Legends. Cyberverse Commanders.
I have limited time and space to play, so something easy to carry around and fiddle with is more convenient. I'm just not as inclined to pick up and play with something large.
Sure, they can be really cool, but I'm seeing leaders and voyagers more as something I only need one or two of on shelves around my apartment to look at and appreciate. Even deluxes (my staple!) feel like something to cut back on. A little. Of course I'm not getting rid of all my deluxes, lets not go crazy.

Can you guys recommend any really good sub-deluxe figures? Nice articulation and moulding. Not smothered in kibble?

I don't have much experience with these figures but of the few I have, my favourites are DOTM Cyb Commander Megatron & Beast Machines Silverbolt.

Anyone else gone through a similar shift in figure preference?
