I’m in the overwhelming minority here. It has to the be hands down the transforming. So frustrating for MISB collectors.

BW snarl has the lamest gimmick of bws. Does it work for anyone?
POTP Predaking has 87 stickers to be precise 37 of which go on Divebomb!
I am not a fan of the oversized weapons that came with the Bay Movie Mechtech Deluxes either and same goes for some of the WFC Generations Figures. Sideswipe comes to mind...already a downsized figure compared to the Optimus/Megatron Wave, so they fill the mass with a huge weapon that adds no value to the figure IMO.
One steps are usually an easy pass for me too as I feel the engineering usually makes the robot look off, unless there is no deluxe/warrior option available (Springload from RID is a classic example) Great for kids but not for me...

Heh, true... Retrax has a more compromising gimmick but it does work well. Very well. Plus he was everyone's default Unicron toy until Armada.
I'm not a fan of the fictitious space jet on TLK Megatron. Makes no sense storywise either. My favourite Bayformers Megatron is DOTM (Mack truck) <---proper robot in disguise.
I don't think they're even that great for kids. The Flipchangers that we had in Beast Wars, Machine Wars and RID were great for kids and adults. IMO a good gimmick is also a timeless one. I don't imagine too many kids continuing to play with most One Step Changers toys as they get older, whereas I still enjoy playing with Flipchangers today (was playing w/ my MW Megatron just a few days ago ). Flipchangers gave us the option of instant change but still maintaining a full action figure with 9 points of articulation and stowable weapons. All for what would be about $15 in today's money.
I'd like to throw my disdain at the MechTech gimmick on the DOTM figures and TFPrime voyagers as well.
I'm really just here for the free food and open bar.
G1 jump starter gimmick, I’ve had twintwist for over 30 years and not once has that sucker landed on his feet.
