Top 10 Transformers Tanks

One of the most popular bruiser modes for Transformers is tanks; so this week's fan-voted countdown list delved into the best ones. While several molds of the same characters got votes, i amassed them all under that one character name and discuss the molds for each as we go, for example, all Impactors, or Warpaths or Bludgeons got lumped together, but for each character, I address which molds got votes...clear as mud? You'll see how it works out as we make our way to number one!

Re: Top 10 Transformers Tanks

These ones were pretty predictable - too many of these "tanks" are kind of cheating though, like made up "cybertronian" garble jumbled together
Stick a cannon on it and boom that's ur tank - meh

TANKOR! Come on folks its even in the name.

The Beast Machines Mega class toy also remains a good mold even to this day.

Don't think he's be first on my list, but he'd definitely be in the top ten.

He would be on mine too. He started with a vote right away and, sadly, quickly fizzled. I was pretty bummed.

Nice list, but I would swap out G2 Megs for Combiner Wars Megatron. While the robot mode left something to be desired in the legs, the overall robot mode was good. His size as a leader was great, and his tank mode, with rubber treads was awesome. Plus the Armada alternate version was pretty good as well all things considered.

Forgot about that one! He would replace Bludgeon in my list.

I can't replace anything. The votes are the votes. Had I separated molds, G2 and other molds, the CW would have taken second. But many of the same character taking up several spots seemed redundant so I talked about the varied molds in ea h character section.
