Since I don't have much to rant about right now, and no exciting new products in stores (yet) to review, I thought I'd post what is probably a common message board topic - rank your favorites! Below I'll post my fav lists, please do post yours, too!
Top G1 Figures:
1.Fortress Maximus - Obvious top choice, huge guy with lots of playability and features
2. Sky Lynx - My biggest TF purchase as a kid, I had to choose between him and Metroplex. One of my worst days as a kid was when I discovered my mom accidentally stepped on it and broke one of his shuttle panels (I glued it, but it was never the same!)
3. Scourge - Its unique boat/plane style is neat, and love the wings in robot mode
4. Soundwave - Best cartoon voice, tough guy robot mode, and fun to hide the cassettes inside
5. Motormaster/Menasor - The closest I came as a kid to having a full merge group set, I had 4 of the 5 Stunticons. Motormaster was sometimes used as my Optimus Prime when playing (as I didn't have one until I traded for a friend's back in the day). Bruticus looks cooler, but Menasor wins out in the sentimental department.
(Sky Lynx and Motormaster were the only two listed above that I owned as kid. I didn't know anyone else back then that owned a Fort Max. A friend of mine lost his Soundwave at a baseball game when we were playing. Sigh, the memories...)
Post G1 Figures:
(Subject to change, but at top of my mind right now)
1. Red Dragon Megatron
2. Titanium Scourge
3. RID Scourge
4. Unicron (robot mode only, hate the planet mode)
5. Alternators Shockwave
Vintage Star Wars Figures:
1. Luke Jedi - my favorite toy as a kid, he could kick butt!
2. Biker Scout - another sad experience as a kid where I was playing catch throwing him to a friend back and forth over a fence and his head broke
3. Boba Fett - Colorful figure and could fly
4. Emperor's Guards - Red is my favorite color, and they seemed tough without having to do anything
5. Yoda - Small yet detailed
(The first 4 above I owned as a kid, Yoda my brother had)
