Clearly, given my recent updates, "Let's get busy" would be one of my favourites. And "Never give an inch" would be wholly incorrect...

You clearly have no understanding of what makes for a bad motto, because some of these are SPECTACULAR

The Oxford English Dictionary defines a motto as "a sentence or phrase chosen as encapsulating the beliefs or ideals of an individual... a maxim adopted as a rule of conduct."
"Compassion is the currency of losers," "Imagination is the key that unlocks the chains of reality," "Reach for the stars, but never leave your friends," "The strongest tyrant cannot crush freedom of thought," and "War is the playground of the ignorant," are mottos for grown-ups.
Mottos are not helped by exclamation marks.

Should Generations toys have the same motto as the original character? I think so.
So who needs mottos - the Cyberverse noobs? Oooooooh. Should Cyberverse Prime have the same motto as G1 Prime?

Is there a G2 fluorescent pink Erector?

Who do these belong to? "Let's get busy?" That's High Beam's. As a team, the Go-bots' mottos are pretty cringeworthy. "Want to race?" - Blowout "Catch me if you can!" - Double Clutch "Decepticons belong in junkyards!" - Firecracker "If you race me, you will lose." - Gearhead "Let's tear up the streets... and the Decepticons!" - Motormouth The current poll-leader, "I have an appointment with danger... but I'll be back!" is Inferno's G2 UK motto according to toys.tfw2005.com/inferno-13-371"Hey, loosen up, guys! Saving the universe can' t be that big of a deal!" is apparently Skram's motto. Martin |

The votes are in, and G2 UK Inferno officially has the worst motto, with "I have an appointment with danger... but I'll be back!" Is he trying to be Arnie or Austin Powers? He should have stuck with "Where there's smoke, there's me."
Joint second place goes to Hooligan ("I'll break your funny bone!") and Skram ("Hey, loosen up, guys! Saving the universe can't be that big of a deal!")

Skram's is the greatest motto of all time!
Honestly. It tells you a lot about his character, which is what they are supposed to do.
It also hits the same humor as "I'll defeat you with the Power of Friendship, and this gun I found!"
