This took some research, as I'm barely familiar with the latter part of G1, and my energy flagged by 1990, but that's still a lot more than I originally listed, so here I go...

Best Autobot Powermaster (1988): Getaway

Best Autobot Headmaster (1988): Hosehead (and as a result I would possibly change my Protectobot from Hotspot to Groove)

Best Autobot Targetmaster (1988): Quickmix

Best Autobot Pretender (1988): Sky High

Best Autobot Pretender Beast (1988): Catilla

Best Triggerbot (1988): Override

Best Sparkabot (1988): Guzzle

Best Pair of Autobot Mini-Cassettes (1988): Grand Slam and Raindance

Best Decepticon Powermaster (1988): Dreadwind

Best Decepticon Headmaster (1988): Squeezeplay

Best Decepticon Targetmaster (1988): Spinister (mostly for that name)

Best Decepticon Pretender (1988): Bugly

Best Decepticon Pretender Beast (1988): Snarler

Best Triggercon (1988): Crankcase

Worst Firecon (1988): Cindersaur

Best Pair of Decepticon Mini-Cassettes (1988): Beastbox and Squawktalk

Worst Seacon (1988): Tentakil

Worst Autobot Pretender (1989): Doubleheader

Best Autobot Micromaster (1989): Erector

Worst Decepticon Pretender (1989): Stranglehold

Best Decepticon Monster Pretender (1989): Sorry I gotta pass on this…

Best Decepticon Micromaster (1989): Flattop

Best Autobot Action Master (1990): Rad

Best Autobot Micromaster (1990): Autobot Astro Squad

Best Decepticon Action Master (1990): Treadshot

Best Decepticon Micromaster (1990): Decepticon Battle Squad

One thing this has driven home for me is how cool Micromasters were. They were more nicely detailed than many larger Transformers of the time. They had some cool playsets (something lacking from the Transformers brand overall). And you could get a bunch of them quickly. Had I been younger (while still being discerning) I can see an alternate past version of me collecting Micromasters exclusively.
