On the opposite end, I haven't really found one that could qualify as my least favourite since I have none of the voyagers and aside from the 3 listed above, I only have FE Cliffjumper and the Legion-Class Arcee, Bumblebee, Cliffjumper, Ratchert and Vehicon.

If I had to pick one to be my least favourite though, it would have to be both Deluxe-Class Bumblebees. Great molds, but there's just too many of them packed with the other figures.
Sometimes I have this odd notion, buy a second FE Bumblebee to give my other one two blasters and keep the second one MIB as a display piece.

Then I remember how wasteful that is for the toy and his purpose. Thank you Toy Story 2. (Also, it would kind of be a waste of money better spent on something else... Now if it was a BOGO sale and the only option was Bumblebee as the freebie, that's a different story altogether.)

Re: PRIME: most/least favorite toy

Can I say I don't have a favorite? I love FE Prime, FE Starscream, FE Cliffjumper, FE Arcee, FE Bulkhead, DLX Soundwave, DLX Megatron and DLX Wheeljack.

FE Bee is my least favorite though and I have no intention of getting a DLX version either... I hate his giant boots... they never get his feet right.

I can't wait for DLX Ratchet and the rest of the gang.

Voyager Starscream is definitely going to be out of scale but I'm getting it as a stand-alone piece anyway. I even wish they'd do a Masterpiece version for this guy. One can never have too many Starscreams.

Re: PRIME: most/least favorite toy

My favorite as in the one I can't stop playing with has to be Wheeljack. I got TWO of him for pete sake (one is Makeshift) because I love to transform that toy so much.

Least favorite so far is FE Bumblebee but I think mine is totally gimped, his joints are super loose and he has too many panels and parts that don't clip into place and are just meant to HOLD at just the right place it's a very annoying design. As a car its pretty cool.

Otherwise the rest of the FE toys are just fantastic. Soundwave oozes personality even if he's not that exciting of a transformer.

Meh, I bought a 2nd one during the $10 sale at TRU, specifically for his blaster. I figure I'll give the spare BB to one of my nephews, the young ones wont care about a missing blaster.

thats what I did with FE bumblebee and I did that with the RID voyager Prime for his sword...my nephew is 4 so he would just chew in the damn thing and loose it the first day anyways.

Re: PRIME: most/least favorite toy

I don't think it's fair to judge right now what is the best and worst of the line JUST YET........

But if I had to pick FE Voyager Prime is pretty high up there along with FE Deluxe Starscream.

Least fav....... it's always DA BEE. Heck let's put the NYCC one

Has there been a review or photos of this taken anywhere? I would love to know what it looks like so I can figure out if I want it or not for that Starscream. If it's a decent enough repaint he could stand in for another seeker of some type.
