Don't think about it! Just read the question and post an answer!

1) Toy you wouldn't accept if somebody offered to give you one for free.

2) Episode you wouldn't sit all the way through if somebody offered you $5.

3) Character you despise so much that you would punch his voice actor in the nose if you ever met him in person.

4) Event you would forever strike from the official canon if you could time travel.

5) Overpriced toy that you would love to see get a second production run and totally saturate the market.

6) The one thing that you hate that the fandom does and you wish was illegal.

7) Character who still hasn't gotten a toy that desperately needs one.

8) The writer you would hire to be the official writer for every official story from this point forward.

9) The character who most desperately needs a new toy.

10) The one thing about Transformers that you would never want to see changed.

I don't know... one of the middling latter Energon episodes?

None.

The moment when Megatron referred to Tarantulas as Unicron's Spawn. It's a great moment, but it then got taken literally.

Energon Ultra Magnus.

Meh.

Nora Roberts. Because we need more romance!

Actually, I really like that we have had some very different writers and styles over the years.

Anyone but Simon Furman. If Michael Bay tried half of what Furman did in
Regeneration One, fans would have flipped shit, but since it was Furman, it
was like the word of a god.

The ones I've been wanting most like Whirl, Roadbuster, Jetfire and
Bumblebee as a VW are all on the way, so I really can't think of one. Maybe
a version of Devastator based on the RotF Legend/EZ figures redesigned and
up scaled a bit larger. I never got the set (the one day I saw it at
Walmart, was the day before I got paid, and it was gone the next.)

Actually now after reading the JP Masterpiece poll article, I realize I have turned down a free Armada Prime...

It's been about a month. Time for me to answer my own questions.

Cybertron Megatron.

The first episode of Armada.

Skids and/or Mudflap.

Devastator testicles.

Headmaster Nightbeat.

Belittling people for having a different opinion.

G1 Arcee. Pink car. From the cartoon show. Looks like she did in The Transformers: the Movie. Surely this cannot be this hard.

Joss Whedon.

Trypticon. Titan-class, baby!

Non-TFs from a line I don't collect. Or stuff I already have.

Or, I guess, a Movie Bumblebee.

Most of Armada, Energon and Cybertron.

That's mean.

Shattered Glass.

> 5) Overpriced toy that you would love to see get a second production run and totally saturate the market.

Aside from vintage stuff (which there's a lot that'd fit that criteria!) I'd love new runs of a lot of recent Botcon stuff, which I like some individual figures from but not enough to justify spending $300+ on an entire set.

> 6) The one thing that you hate that the fandom does and you wish was illegal.

Third-party figures--oh wait!

Well, related to that, outright shitting on Hasbro's efforts (no matter how good or bad they may be this week) and saying the third party knockoffs are somehow inherently "better" or that they "understand true fans" somehow better than the company that makes the toys in the first place.

> 7) Character who still hasn't gotten a toy that desperately needs one.

IDW's Fortress Maximus. Chromedome. I had a few others a couple years ago, but Hasbro is steadily filling the gaps.

> 8) The writer you would hire to be the official writer for every official story from this point forward.

James Roberts.

> 9) The character who most desperately needs a new toy.

Ultra Magnus. MP doesn't count and I don't like it.

> 10) The one thing about Transformers that you would never want to see changed.

That they transform!

...also hey, I guess I'm sort of back?
