Hallowe'en 2018 Special - What Monstrous Transformers Do You Love?
While i'm not big on the whole Halloween hype train myself, I figured we could have some fun on another episode of TaZZerath's Thought-provoking Talks: What's your favourite Monster Transformers? You can list these as either the characters, the toys that represent them, or both. Anything beastly or monstorous I feel is fair game (including dragons) because around Halloween all the monsters are out to play!
I'm gonna try and collate 5 of my own in no particular order:
Transformers: Prime Predaking was great in the show and my GOD did his Ultimate class figure (with that wingspan!) look amazing. He was one of my regrets in not purchasing (due to price and room thanks to that massive wingspan)
Fangry was always a Marvel Comics favourite of mine along with his winged wolf mode. The first Marvel Comic I owned was "Exodus!" Where thanks to Andrew Wildman's art (which I didn't mind) really brought Fangry to life when he got his tail handed to him by a Nucleon-powered Grimlock. His little Titan Master figure is also adorable.
Blackarachnia as a character in Beast Wars, the femme fatale and polar opposite to her later love Silverbolt. Beast Wars reignited my passion for Transformers and I feel that the way they drove Blackarachnia's character forward really helped cement that. Beast Machines was an aberration because I felt things became a bit disconnected. Her Animated universe counterpart with her alternative backstory was also pretty cool.
Beast Wars Silberbolt, another fantastically fleshed-out character from Beast Wars (until he was nerfed in Beast Machines). Noble and honorable but with a weakness for bad girls (see above) his winged wolf mode always dominated the screens and his head scuplt was something else. Another purchase I never got to getting, at that stage I was only watching and not collecting transformers.
And finally Horri-Bull/Bullhorn. The Alt Mode is the giant demon dogs from Ghostbusters. Enough said!
So what are your favourites? Your list can be as long or as short as you like. Please share!
