Worthwhile Voyagers?

So with the Zellers sale happening this week, I want to take advantage of it and maybe pick up a voyager along with Superion.

So I'd like to ask amongst what's out, and what's easily ready to find right now, what are some good voyagers from any of the lines I should consider picking up?

Preferably something Animated, as I don't have many from that line(Just prowl)

I've had my eye on Grimlock and Prime for awhile. But for Prime I may just wait for the Wing Blade.

Shockwave

Lugnut
Grimlock
Safeguard

In that order, for me.

Skywarp, Shockwave, Grimlock, Lugnut, no particular order. The Voyagers for TFA are quite nice.

Re: Worthwhile Voyagers?

I'll be honest I think the only horrible voyager from Animated is also the worst figure in the line, Megatron

Anything else is awesome....well Optimus could be better but you gotta get him because he's Optimus :P

Re: Worthwhile Voyagers?

The only TRA voyagers I didn't pick up was Lugnut. They're all pretty good, well except megatron. I have him, and I think he's ok, but I only paid $15 for him at the sears clearance center. For that price he's fine.

Out of the rest that you can probably still find on the shelfs, maybe ROTF Ironhide. I'll reserve opinions on the rest of the ROTF voyagers because I'm so so on the movie toys in general.

Re: Worthwhile Voyagers?

Animated: they're all pretty good except Megatron. Wreck-Gar is my favorite. Shockwave/Longarm is fun but the 2 alt modes are lazy. Same for Safeguard.

ROTF: Long Haul and Mixmaster are my favorites. Starscream is pretty good too. Fallen, not so much. Megatron is overrated. Demolisher is unique but maybe not for everyone.

Re: Worthwhile Voyagers?

Why all the hating on Voyager Megatron? Except the lack of screen accuracy [something I tend to ignore] and the paint on his legs that refuses to stay on the plastic.

Although, yeah, he's probably on the low end of the list. But he's not terrible. I think I dislike the Starscream mold more [it just... falls apart.]

Re: Worthwhile Voyagers?

My main problem with Megatron is his lazy transformation (half-ass folding under a giant shell). He looks cool in both modes though, it's just what happens in between that bugs me.
