Thoughts on the Hall of Fame
Well the Transformers Hall of Fame voting has just begun for the 5th entrant into the Hall of Fame (the first 4 are Optimus Prime, Bumblebee (yay), Megatron and Starscream).
Who are you backing and what are your opinions on the field? Personally I would like Grimlock to win but Shockwave, Soundwave and Jazz are strong candidates. I just don't get the appeal of Dinobot (I missed out on the BW era and although I have the figure I'm not exactly enamoured by it). |

Re: Thoughts on the Hall of Fame
Everyone is a strong candidate. Dinobot is the best fleshed out character, but his non-G1 status will count against him. Maybe next year?
I'd love for Shockwave to win, but I really see this going to Soundwave. HamStar Customs - Mighty Muggs, Vinyl & More. Not currently accepting commissions, will update when open for orders again. |

Re: Thoughts on the Hall of Fame
i would love to own a g1 shockwave. i had a knock off as a kid, from a toy shop called merrits or something similar, sold a lot of diaclone stuff.
but yeah, he ticks all the boxes when it comes down to the most popular and likeable tf. dinobot would be a great addition. but why no galvatron???? from any line??? stupid idea this hall of fame. we all know id walk it :lol: IM NOT MAD, IM LOVEABLE!! |

Dino-who?
Without grimlock, there would not have been dinobot - so that counts him out. As you say Shockwave or Grim are the standout characters. Wraithchild666 reborn I used to be normal like you, but then I took an arrow to the knee.. |

Quote:Dino-who? Not to trend on your opinion (difference of which is what makes the world interesting IMO), but I don't think that's fair. Of course you're right that Grimlock paved the way for Dinobot, but that shouldn't discount him from the Hall of Fame anymore than not allowing BW Megatron and Primal (with G1 Megs & Prime being their predecessors) who should totally go in at some point. I agree that maybe he shouldn't go in yet though as there's plenty of G1 grandaddies that are more deserving at this stage. Maybe we should do our own TF@TM Hall of Fame? I'm sure the twins can work it into the site. Thoughts? HamStar Customs - Mighty Muggs, Vinyl & More. Not currently accepting commissions, will update when open for orders again. |

Re: Thoughts on the Hall of Fame
I'm actually with you on Galvatron. He probably should have been a candidate. The only problem is most people see Galvatron as just another Megatron (albeit upgraded).
Dinobot was also only featured in one series (i'm not counting Universe Dinobot as thats just a rehash of the original). All of the others have transcended their own series and been used multiple times in multiple ways. Personally I would like to have seen the occasional modern TF in the hall of fame. For example Hotshot (Armada/Energon/Cybertron). Doing a TF@TM Hall of Fame is a good idea. |

Re: Thoughts on the Hall of Fame
Maybe if the boys had more time I guess it would be a great idea doing a TF@TM Transformers hall of fame, perhaps each year on the anniversary of the sites creation perhaps? Would be interesting to see who gets voted in against whom each year
See, the bright light... it ain't heaven, son. It's just a muzzle flare |
