Sorry but I’m still not getting the hate of The War for Cybertron Trilogy. Maybe I’m just a moron myself but I don’t think it was as bad as some think. Hell it was actually kind of really entertaining. The one thing I was annoyed with was Megatron constantly having such a loyal following and always seemingly had the leg up. Then again it made Megatron extremely hate able for my taste and I believe that was the intention then mission accomplished!

Do get that its a personal list but I loved MP52 over Crimson. Transforming Crimson is an absolute NIGHTMARE and the transformation has resulted in a ridiculous amount of paint chipping. I bought a Crimson and never transformed it just to have the "nicer" Starscream. MP52 however, I have enjoyed transforming continuously. The only bummer for MP52, for me, are the lack of waist swivel and the fact that the stand is pretty much useless in robot mode. But I'll take those compromises over what Crimson had to do get a waist swivel and a slightly better back (I don't mind the back kibble on MP52)

One of the worst of 2021 was Kingdom Soundwave. I was so excited for him, and I called two different GameStops to ask if they had him, and I hate calling stores! Butterfly joins in the shoulders are stupidly loose Left knee very loose Torso pegs too tight so he will get stress marks ON THE FRONT OF THE TOY if I transform him anymore, so basically I payed for a toy that was broken out of the box and I can’t find another copy. Also Hades Megatron was kinda disappointing. He looks cool but he can’t hold up Hades in weapon mode and transforming him is confusing, and Gora ii wouldn’t look right in weapon mode so I tried to fix it but I broke him

My worst figure of 2021 was, ironically, my favorite figure of 2021 as well. Ss86 hot rod was a joy to play with and transform, it was almost perfect except for 1 GLARING ISSUE. The way the arm pipes peg into the legs means 2 things-- 1. The entire vehicle mode is held together by 2 tiny clasps. And 2. Said tiny clasps are forced to transform in a way that encourages them to break. I transformed ss86 hot rod once before I had to get a replacement.

Eh, I’m not so sure about that. While whatever custom paint job you can/could give it will make it look amazing, I still don’t think that’d make it the best jetformer. I know that there are better jetformers out there. If I’m being honest, I think one of the best jetformers is the old Power Core combiners Decepticon combiner (idk the name). He has a sleek jet form, and while the robot mode is a little janky it’s still great. I think I was 2 or 3 when Power Cores was a thing and somehow he’s survived amazingly over these years with the only thing that’s gotten loose being his toes and I lost his target master partner a while ago, but then again I don’t know if he would still be living today if I didn’t because toddlers and clear plastic don’t mix. If you want a really good jetformer to customize, look into finding him. Edit: Skyhammer! That’s his name, Skyhammer!

Dr - great article, and good luck on your move! I really have list of pet peeves of my 2021 purchases, and one disappointment: Couldn’t Thrilling 30’s Jetfire’s hands be designed to fold/slide away. Couldn’t Cybertron Deluxe Excellion have longer forearms and why the need to wiggle the lower leg before extending leg to avoid breaking the hip ball joint. Also, why do G1 Computron’s arms extend out asymmetrically from the body? If one did disappoint me - Legends of Cybertron Megatron - front wings on very flimsy/fragile plastic, and with all the leg articulation, you can’t even raise the arms. A dishonorable mention would be Generations Selects Zetar’s lower legs falling off in some poses…

Scorponok is the one Kingdom figure I will definetively not buy, it looked bad from the pictures already and the character felt always a bit of a non-entity to me. Sincerely "worst figure" in my case is relative because I don't buy that many and I'm usually pretty selective, the "least good" is Road Rage due to the inherent issues of the mold but even then she's fine. PS: sincerely I think you are too hard on the CF/BB mold transformation scheme, I managed to get Bumblebee at normal price and I find it's a nice little figure. I would never had paid the stupid prices on eBay for it, but really the alt mode is delightful and the bot mode is a good representation of G1 Bee without being slavish.

I just love how right you were about the retro Scorponok reissue being better than the kingdom one. I got it as a Christmas present from a friend this year, and it was amazing. It's surprisingly articulated despite its age, and the gimmicks it has don't even cause any compromise. The only flaws I could find were the fact that the scorpion mode looks kinda hollow, one of the claws can't be fully closed due to the cyber bee, and the legs feel a bit loose (it's not like it instantly falls when you try to make it stand up, but they still move a bit too easy.) Nevertheless, it's still a great figure. Thank you for having advised me to not but Kingdom Scorponok, Doc.

I can't say that Top Lists are my thing, but I can/could offer my opinion about some of the entries on your list here. I don't hate the Dominus set. I quite like the Barricade in some capacity, but my issues lie in some tolerance choices. It's not exactly the clear plastic used, as I have watched other reviews prior to getting the set, and I have been careful on transforming him (and for that time I got him in vehicle mode, it did 'sit flush' (I say that for the car roof's sake). But my problem lies in the feet, with the worst offenders being the heels. They're so tight, I'm afraid of breaking the figure because of it. (And I do find it somewhat hilarious and a bit frustrating that the shoulder JOINTS are strong/tight to move, while the shoulder TABS are weak that they move off when trying to move the shoulder.) And no, I don't mind the lack of purple on the Earthrise version, since both versions are going for different aesthetics, and something tells me that they somewhat prioritized the vehicle mode on the Earthrise (yes, hence said clear plastic). (And I can't say that P-CP is a bad repaint, just needed some form of effort put into it, and I did paint the wheels red and a bit of Punch's thighs red (oh, and I painted the tail lights on Barricade as well as the black shoulders.), and no, the acrylic paint I had to do this didn't come with silver paint.) The Sparkless Seeker is an oddity. It looks less like a zombie and more like a generic Seeker with those colors and smirking face. (Maybe it was the point, maybe it wasn't. They did give him two Targetmasters, after all.) And yes, painted eyes over the light piping does suck, but I doubt the light piping would be effective if the eyes WEREN'T painted. (Seriously, who's dumb idea was it to go with that choice of transparent plastic?) Sure, a part of me wants the world collide box set, if for the Fangry and Nemesis Primal (& if I wanted the latter, I'd want the Shadow Panther to go along with it). I can say that obscure characters of The Transformers intrigues me*. (I'll find a way to acquire the WFC Horrorcons.) (And I don't really collect third party figures and Masterpiece figures, though I WILL admit I am intrigued by those Masterpiece(s) Road Rage and Exhaust.) I don't hate the Earthrise Arcee, and I'd say that Arcee is (probably) the best of the mould, but I doubt you'd care. And I could say that your list here is the kind of thing you need to get off your chest. (I never voted on what list you should do.)

(*Dunno if the the thing to 'steer the ship' out of the trajectory of what Transformers media aims at in terms of bringing in more people (based on what you had to say from those Diagnosis Insanities) would be to give the obscure entities the spotlight as opposed to the same characters over and over (ex: Optimus Prime, Megatron, Bumblebee, etc.), but what would I know?

It's more that its mediocre in comparison to the movie bots. The transformations and paintwork aren't of the same quality, aside from the dinobots who are amazing. It's also the fact that they deliberately make fewer movie bots in exchange for more geewun, which is getting real tiresome at this point. It's not even the interesting stuff past 87 that never got updates: it's the same old characters on a constant loop

The nemesis primal looks like such a cool figure but it comes in a bad overpriced (secondary market) figure pack. Could we see a generation selects rerelease heck hasbro could release it as a shattered glass version. Something else that would be a cool release is tetra jet coneheads it’s a good figures so why not remould the wings to match each conehead but cyber stylized and do a legacy release. For kingdom tracks maybe if you don’t care for the colours get the roadrage version due to if you find another tracks figure you prefer like an older or newer figure you won’t be stuck with the floppy knees of kingdom

For one thing, I'm a chug collector only. For two, I haven't been collecting nearly as long in my adult life as you or many others (started during Earthrise, shortly before Kingdom dropped), so rather than restrict myself to 2021, I'll simply speak of the figures I've gotten up until today in mid-2022. These are also in no particular order. Legacy Core Skywarp: I have no qualms with the figure itself. In fact I rather like the Core Seeker mold. It's the accessory choices that annoy me. Releasing a Seeker without Null Rays is blasphemy. And the thing they were removed for - his dinky little axe(?) doesn't even combine with the other two Core weapons properly out of the box, because its 3mm peg is too long. I had to shave over half the length of the peg down with a file. Design your combining weapon gimmick right Hasbro, this is a rookie mistake. Accessory snafus all around. Earthrise Cliffjumper: What can be said by me that hasn't already been said by the Doctor himself? Now, I don't hate partsforming across the board, but this figure does it poorly, and it feels like the designers just got lazy and cheated. The partsformed piece doesn't even look good as a "shield", and his back looks terrible without it pegged on (even though the backpack also juts up weirdly), essentially making it feel like a necessary chore. And the peg in the "shield" is impossible to flip out without a tool like a flathead or file. Just bad design. Also I don't like his feet, they're too big proportionally and make this figure look like the clown that it is. (Netflix Bumblebee is more forgiveable because the shape of the retooled pieces make it look a lot better than the clunky, boxy Cliffjumper.) Earthrise Arcee: Barebones design, bad vehicle mode, barely a transformer. "Shellformers" *can* be done well - like 86 Scourge - but this figure is not that. And her face is just... kind of offputting. The hoverboard is like Cliffjumper's "shield", it barely looks like a hoverboard and seems like a thinly veiled excuse for partsforming to make the backpack look right, because the designers didn't want to include a piece that has to be removed for bot mode and then literally does nothing when detached. Feels like cheating again. I only keep her because I want to own a representation of the G1 character. She's easily the least favorite figure in my collection. Elita One is more forgiveable to me similar to Netflix Bee, because the retooled parts make her bot mode look a bit better. She gets a pass by comparison. Kingdom Dracodon: I like the Vertebreak mold, I do. And a green redeco *sounds* cool. But they absolutely botched the execution. I know they were going for "radioactive", but the green they picked says "hi-liter" to me. The look of the color makes the figure *look cheap* even. And the worst part is, the gold accents are great! If only they made him a darker, less garish green I would actually love this figure. As it is now, it's just a disappointment. Kingdom Scorponok: Short and dumpy, and the altmode feels incomplete. I don't like how his chest just kinda hangs half-open on the underbelly in beast mode. It looks like the transformation hasn't been finished. The first time I transformed him, I literally tried multiple times to see if it could be closed or if I was reading the instructions wrong, in disbelief. Same story as ER Arcee, I keep him just to *have* him, not because I particularly like the figure. Earthrise Wheeljack: I don't dislike the figure, I just think it could be better. The "wings" and the shoulder cannon(?) are kinda pathetic, and they could've done better. But I supposed upgrade kits fix that.

Honorable Mention to Kingdom Galvatron: He's not *bad,* but I would've preferred a release that was like Legacy Galvatron from the beginning. The "battle damage" was oddly-done and doesn't even look in-place with other Siege battle damage. Great figure, but the Legacy release is what Kingdom Galvatron should've been from the start. Thus as the only figure that I've actually sold (because I bought Legacy Galvatron to replace him), Kingdom Galvatron gets an honorary place in my list.

Don't care what you think, the Earthrise Seeker mold is cool. Never had the Classics one, but I really liked the engineering. Siege Starscream is good, but the mold doesn't do it for me and some other people. I don't like the Siege headsculpt, I don't like the details as he doesn't really fit in with other WfC releases. Earthrise mold is just more fun to me.

@@DrLockdown It was refreshing to hear that. They do look nice. I kind of wish that they had started out like that but for me it was the cheating with faux parts, over engineering, and the PRICE. Also the sudden shift in style. I already have my old MP collection. I wasn't going to start over with a NEW line of MP figures that now clash with the aesthetics of the old one and also cost a whole lot more. I like me old MP figures. I'll check out your MP52 video.
