I thought you were just refering to Classic/Original Gen1 (1984-1992), not neo-Gen1 characters 'retroconned' into Gen1 20 years later. As such, I'd have said Drift as well, as it is a significant character that is portrayed to be 'great', but isn't necessarily seen that way by some fans (like Razorbeast, Stryka, and quite a few others already listed).
the usual suspects like the cast of Beast Wars.
Demolishor (Armada/Energon Demo was the only good thing about the energon toon, the only character to be vaguely interesting. Then they went and lobotomised him. yay)
Sky-Byte (I'm not 100% on what makes him great, he is just awesome.)
RID Scourge (Awesome enough to forgive the knock-on effect of Nemesis Prime)
BM Strika (Best Fembot Evar!)
Lugnut!
Lockdown!
Let's not forget Prowl2!
For me, I'd say probably only Dinobot ranks up there with staples like Starscream, Optimus Prime & the like. BTW BW Primal & Megs are effectively tribute characters.
Eagerly waiting for Masterpiece Meister
Dinobot is my number 1 character of all TF's but he was already mentioned so thats why I put forward BM Strika as one of the best female Characters around. Boy did I give that vote for Dinobot button a hammering for the hall of fame induction![]()
Primus I guess, all the others I can think of have been mentioned.
Which brings us to where we are today...
