Which Line Had The Best Toys To Go With It?

[SKYWARP]

If you had to pick from these lines only, which one do you think had the best toys to go with it?

[Dark Gundam]

Armada had some really great toys,including every tf from the show,but it lost points with not making Tidal Wave show accurate,so I choose Energon.

[Insane Galvatron]

I also voted Energon. I like all the G1 homages. No other line has had this many. I almost voted BW. Only reason I didn't, is I'm not keen on animal TF toys.

[jcjdotcom]

Energon. I didn't mean to, but I purchased almost everything from this series. Great homage toys and some cool new ones as well.

[Insane Galvatron]

I'm starting to think they should've add G1 to the list just to give Energon something to compete with...

[Plaz Tech]

BeastWars is what got me back in to collecting TF's. So my vote went there. Also almost every single toy transformered just like on the show (or the other way round )

[TheCasualOblivion]

Energon. Only non G1/non Alternators line I care about. First time since G-1 they've had a main line in the same spirit.

[DPrime]

RiD toys rocked... even though the show left much to be desired.

 

I'm not loving the Energon stuff like most others are.

[SKYWARP]

I would have but I thought G1 would take it in a landslide.

[Natas]

i think RID by far takes it. they were great looking toys and were had good use of ball and sockets which make them look better than other lines. i think that they are the 3rd best line ever

1st being G1 followed very closely by Alt. then RID

[TheCasualOblivion]

RiD was crap. More than half of the line was recolors from previous lines, or leftovers from BW/BM (Megatron, Bruticus, ect). I've never been fond of the Autobot bros, crappy Shell bots with spindly organic arms and legs and very little of the car mode apparent in the robot(compared to G1, Armada, Alternators or Energon). Optimus Prime and Ultra Magnus have some of the same problems, not having much of the vehicle mode in their robotic forms and having organic arms/legs(robots should look robotic). Optimus Prime is a Fire Truck (not pure crap as some say, but definitely less cool than a semi) that falls apart if you breathe on it, though not as crappy as Energon Prime(Wingsaber Prime rules though). I'm not really big on the combiners either, Ruination is Bruticus(been there done that), Landfill has weird colors(Wal-Mart yellow is better) and I've never been that high on Rail Racer(consierably less cool when not Rail Racer, more so than other combining sets). My favorite figure of the line is Scourge, a repaint of a G2 mold.

 

I prefer Energon in almost every way.

[Mega_Plex]

Energon.

[Starscream49]

Energon just is awesome in every since.

[grand theft autobot]

Energon.

 

It's a great line with some amazing molds and nice G1 touches. Robots have weapons again, mostly, and there's the greatest Megatron toy ever!

 

Beast Wars is second. It's also a great line with a ridiculous amount of pieces to pick from, but they don't have Shockblast.

 

RID was great too, but it lacked in the numbers department.

[redrum2581]

RiD

[computron]

energon: because it is starting to show new features and new ideas incorporated into the transformations and designs

[Insane Galvatron]

RID was great too, but it lacked in the numbers department.

Actually, that's one of the things I liked about RID. I didn't go broke buying all the show figures. Alot like BW and BM. G1, Armada, and Energon have waaaaaay too many. I voted Energon, but it makes my wallet cry. @cry@

[Metatron1050]

BW, my first TF line ever. It was original, it had story lines that heald up, if not, surpassed G1 storylines. Most of all, it had RHINOX!

[Wingus]

Energon!

 

Unlike a lot of people I really like the 'Mega Zord Prime'...

 

And that Inferno Volt figure, shoulda been called Grapple...

So many homages. E. Divebomb also looks kickarse in G1 Divebomb colors.

[Ledezman]

RID all the way

[grand theft autobot]

I really liked the designs the new molds were sporting in the series, like most of us here, but I was dissappointed there wasn't more. I bought all the japanese versions of the new molds and always hoped there would have been more "Car Brothers."

[TheSlup]

Had to go with Energon. Great gimmicks, G1 homages, and molds. If I didn't have a TF buying restriction on myself, I could easily see myself picking up most all the Energon figures.

[abraxsis]

Gotta go with RID. It's still miles ahead of Armada & Energon toy wise.

[Three Storms]

I'd have to say RID. All it was missing was Unicron to make it the best since G1.

[rodimusconvoy21]

In my opinion its hard to say; I dont want to bash any of them all 4 had something good about them. For instance, Beast wars had good looking robots even if they were animals, the first serie had nice weapons, as well as the TM2, they looked like their show counterpart etc.

 

RID, I love those because they brought back the vehicular modes, we had really good figures for prime and Megatron, etc.

 

Armada gave me Prime again a truck, some cool characters, STARSCREAM, and Unicron for the first time.

 

And Energon gave us G1 homages, Omega Supreme, a nice Megatron, etc.

 

So its hard to say for me.
