Now that the line is pretty much done... your top 3 favorite Movie toys
At this point, we've gotten pretty much all the movie toys save for a few redecos. What is your definitive Movie Top 3?
01. MA-21 Leader Battle Mode Optimus Prime (TakaraTomy)
Ok, I don't have it yet, but after seing the latest pictures showing all the chrome and already knowing the Premium version of the mold is my favorite with the new head, the sword and the transformation sound, I know that this version of Optimus is probably my favorite ever. The size, the rubber wheels, the complex transformation, it's an awesome toy.
02. TS-02 Trans Scanning Bumblebee (TakaraTomy)
This is my ultimate version of Movie Bumblebee. Maybe not movie-accurate, but it's extremely well detailed in car mode (looks way better than the Premium version imo), the robot mode is nicely articulated, the transformation is satisfyingly complex but not overly frustrating, plus you get 3 additional modes (entry mode, protoform and core body) that are just fun. I totally embrace the Trans Scanning concept, I hope we get more toys like that in the future.
03. Leader Brawl (Hasbro)
Big, complex, armed to the teeth, gimmicky.. I think it has a lot of presence on my movie shelf.

Hmmm....Landmine for sure. He's one of my top three figs ever. Posability is crazy, alt mode is really cool. He's just limited in some poses cause of the roller skates.
Then probably Leader Prime and Longarm.
Leader Brawl's my favorite 'con for sure.

Re: Now that the line is pretty much done... your top 3 favorite Movie toys
1.) Landmine
Great articulation, cool vehicle mode, shock absorbers, articulated hands and claws, a weapon that stores logically into his robot mode (unlike Jazz) - what more is there to ask for?
2.) Leader Brawl
While his articulation is not very impressive (even for a leader-class toy), he's packed with all sorts of features and goodies. Impressive and imposing.
3.) Stockade
I really love Stockade (only slightly more than Concept Camaro Bumblebee). I think it's because he has wide-shoulders and extending arms, so he appears bigger than he is. His gorilla shape makes him look fairly unique amongst the movie decepticons.
(I assume you don't consider the Real Gear bots as part of the movie line, but I love all those little suckers)

Landmine gets a close 4th.

Re: Now that the line is pretty much done... your top 3 favorite Movie toys
1) Deluxe CC BB.
- By far the best deluxe ever. The design, the transformation, both alt and bot modes = amazing. 1st TFTM figure I bought. It's what got me addicted to TFs again. The articulation is second to none and it finally makes BB a kick-a$$ ride. I'm not a traditionalist, and BB was a big weinie in the old cartoons. Never liked the character until now. It's about as perfect a product as Hasbro is capable of making. (That's sort of like being the smartest idiot in the room if you know what I mean, but whatever).
2) Deluxe '77 Camero BB (Japanese version)
My favorite alt mode of the movie line. The North American version sucked, but the clear windows makes a huge difference! Love the design. The only thing that prevented it from being #1 on my list is the god aweful bot mode.
3) Deluxe Barricade.
His alt mode is really cool, and looks even better next to BB. the Reprolabels make it much better than the Premium version, way more movie accurate. I love the bot mode too. I love how different he looks, how he's not in proportion, what with the big arms, tiny legs and buff chest; makes him look like a body builder on roids.
What makes these three so much better than the rest, is the bang for the buck. at $15 bucks a pop, it's pretty awesome.
