Childhood favourites vs Adult favourites

[Brawn]

I think my favourites now are still highly linked to my childhood toys or what my friends had.

As a kid my favourite toys from the groups where:

Seacon - Nautillator (He was sturdy and fun to play with, plus his colours are cool)
Stunticon - Dragstrip (The only TF I ever lost, plus I loved Racing cars in general)
Protectorbot - Hotspot (Loved that you could do a beefy punch action, plus he had play value),
Aerialbot - Silverbolt (Never saw him outside toy brochure, but I liked the concordeness)
Combaticon - Vortex (Helicopters ruled, great fun to swoosh!)
Dinobot - Sludge (Played with my cousins all the time, I wanted him)
Insecticon - Bombshell (Didn't have him but though he was cool in the 85 annual)
Constructicons - I never even knew existed, back then.

As an adult:

Seacon - Nautillator (but Snaptrap is so very close on his heels.)
Stunticon - Deadend (like the design, but they are all cool)
Protectorbot - Hotspot (Agree with you min, just the coolest, I like blades a lot too though),
Aerialbot - Slingshot (Harriers are awesome and I found out Silverbolt was lame!)
Combaticon - Vortex (Helicopters still rule)
Dinobot - Slag (Love the character too)
Insecticon - Kickback (Just a cool looking bot mode)
Constructicons - meh, maybe hook, not that bothered about them.
