Re: are there any popular molds you just hate?

Not one mould, per say, but I hate it when Hasbro paints clear plastic pieces. It's a nightmare waiting to happen. The paint on parts of UC2.0 Silverstreak and Ironhide both completely rubbed off on me. Gah. Also, the mish-matching of clear windows and painted plastic is terrible on some figures, like UC2.0 Hotshot.

Re: are there any popular molds you just hate?

I finally got the universe Cyclonus about a month ago. It looked really great, and i love Cyclonus, but the figure just isn't as nice as some people had said. The main thing i hate is the articulation. I want to hate it but its still one of my favorite figures just because its Cyclonus. :P

I always hated the Transmetal molds. That shinny chrome paint was horrid.

I don't have a mold that I really hate. Galvatron would be my pick.. but I doubt he falls under the qualifier of "popular molds."

Re: are there any popular molds you just hate?

Hate is such a strong word...

Though I really dislike Masterpiece Grimlock more now considering how amazing and flawless people think he is despite how underwhelming he actually is overall.

Universe/Classics Prowl.
Agreeing with everyone saying the transformation scheme is awkward. The doors needed to just swing open just like RTS Jazz instead of that ball joint(which has recently been re-tightened -_-').

His head is also waaaaaay too high off his shoulders and it just looks very unproportioned. His feet need some ball articulation as well. When I first got him into robot mode that was my first complaint 'cause it was difficult to stand him with his double-jointed knees.

Re: are there any popular molds you just hate?

This is quite similar to my old opposite opinion thread: http://www.cybertron.ca/boards/showt...osite+opinions.

For me, it used to be Drift, but I love him now. Otherwise, I don't know.

This. They can do better. I know they can.

Although to be honest "hate" is way too strong a term. I have one, it's alright just not good enough to buy any more.

Agreed. Hate is...extreme. I have Acid Storm, just because I think you've got to be a hella ballsy jet to be flying around the bright blue sky painted in forrest camo. That or real dumb.
