Question Which of these "Classics" series do you love the most?

For those who love to get their modern G1/homage fix.

I'm not counting the G1 molds re-packaged nor the Mini-Cons.

Just to jog all your memory banks (I'm listing most of that line, but not all):

Classics - Optimus, Megatron, Starscream, Rodimus, Astrotrain, Bumblebee, Grimlock, Ramjet, Mirage, etc

Universe 2.0 - Sunstreaker, “Octane”, Sideswipe, Onslaught, Ratchet, Ironhide, Cyclonus, Acid Storm, Inferno, Powerglide, Hound, Prowl, Silverstreak, etc

Legends sized: Cosmos, Beachcomber, Rodimus, Warpath, Wheelie, Jazz, Hound, Brawn, G2 Megatron, and Bumblebee

Generations - Thrust, WFC Collection, Dirge, Thunderwing, IDW Blurr + Drift, Darkmount, Red Alert, Skullgrin, Kup, Scourge, Thundercracker, etc

RTS - Jazz, Tracks, Perceptor, Wreck-Gar, Grapple, Windcharger, Strafe, etc

Legends sized: Gold Bumblebee, Starscream, Megatron, Optimus, Trail(breaker), and Prowl



Which of these attempts to capture the 80s do you love most?

What the heck, throw in your fav figure from each series too.

Obviously up to what we have now, who knows what's next.

Re: Which of these "Classics" series do you love the most?

Gotta be Classics Deluxe Bumblebee. Even though he doesn't change into a VW Beetle, he seems to embody everything iconic about the 80s Bumblebee.

He's small, stocky, has car front for legs, car rear for back, easy to pose, easy to transform. I think the only fault is the jetski-wing accessory (which I have him use as a wrist mounted sword). And on top of that he's got a rub symbol.

Re: Which of these "Classics" series do you love the most?

It's a really tough call as each line has stand out toys, but off the top of my head the stuff in generations is my fav overall. Scourge, wheeljack, skullgrin...

Although there's cyclonus which is probably my favorite mold... *shrug*

Re: Which of these "Classics" series do you love the most?

What! No Henkei, no United, how is this fair? Lol! But seriously I am a japanese fan boy so I voted other for the Henkei/United line. Love my Henkei Bumblebee and almost all of the United figures, to me they are worth the extra money.

I consider these to all be the same line.

I enjoy the entire Classics Universe line, and each has had figures I really wanted.

Sorry. I figured it's technically the same figures per batch...the only figure off the top of my head that "jumped" was the Red Alert...Henkei released him along with the batch that came with the equivalent Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, Cyclonus, etc waves. While we got it in the third chunk of our"Classics-verse".

Of course they are, I just broke it down to it's batches to see which chunks people liked.

If I had done this poll using G1, and asked which series (1 thru 7) people liked, would you 2 have said the same thing? (ie "it's all the same line")
