Wing was not sold separately, Waver was not sold separately, Dash was not sold separately, Tacker was not sold separately, Mach was not sold separately and Tackle was was not sold separately. We are not voting for these toys here. However.... C316 Wingwaver was on sale consisting of Wing & Waver C-317 Dashtacker was on sale consisting of Dash & Tacker C-218 Machtackle was on sale consisting of Mach & Tackle We are voting on Wingwaver, Dashtacker and Machtackle. Legal poll, Burns is smited one robot point.

"None of these were sold indvidually." Your own words betray you! Ravage and Rumble weren't sold separately. Soundwave and Buzzsaw weren't sold separately. I think the criterion for this thread is whether or not toys have their own tech-specs. The Spy Cassettes did. Micromaster and Multiforce mini team members did not. Now, next Monday's Extra poll is one where I may cry foul. It's one thing to include the likes of Wingwing as options. (Wing combines with himself? How is that even possible? He was a unique character in Japan. Is half of Wingwing from a parallel universe?) But it also occurs to me that Wingwaver and Waverwing are the same toy, in different modes, like Punch and Counterpunch. Normally these polls are asking us which is the best toy out of a number of different toys, giving them credit for all their modes. But to have a poll where some of the options are different toys while some of the options are the same toy standing on its head... How can one decide which toy is better out of Wingwaver and Waverwing, when Wingwaver has a Waverwing mode and vice versa? They are equally good, because they are identical, surely! This one could go all the way to the Supreme Court... Martin

I vote Machtackle. I know Wingwaver probably looks the neatest, but I like Machtackle's colour scheme and his legs aren't stuck together - indeed, he stands rather proud with them apart. Don't forget, we're voting on the toy overall, not a specific mode of the toy. Each of the three has two medium-sized robot modes, two smaller robot modes and two small vehicular modes. The Wingwaver toy transforms into Waverwing as well as a jet, hydrofoil and two small robots. Dashtacker transforms into Tackerdash as well as a sports car, armoured car and two small robots. Machtackle transforms into Tacklemach as well as a space shuttle, ground vehicle and two small robots. Pictures of their Waverwing, Tackerdash and Tacklemach modes are all here: www.tfu.info/1989/Cybertron/WingWaver/wingwaver.htmwww.tfu.info/1989/Cybertron/DashTacker/dashtacker.htmwww.tfu.info/1989/Cybertron/MachTackle/machtackle.htmMartin

Lots of cogent reasons to go MachTackle here, especially Martin's, but I like the big white disco dancing shoes WingWaver is wearing. He is the John Travolta of Transformers.

I've looked at the pictures, and sorry guys these are doing nothing for me at all. Think I have to go with John Travolta though.

Vote Machtackle. The Multiforce bot with the Wideload trousers. Or Wideload jumper, depending on which mode he's in (i.e. depending on which limbs he chooses to employ as legs and which as arms). Lots of cogent reasons to go MachTackle here, especially Martin's, but I like the big white disco dancing shoes WingWaver is wearing. For the record, Martin has always been voting for Wingwaver/Waverwing because Martin favours combiners with colour co-ordination over those without. Martin

Has the forum been down while I've been at work today? I've never known it so quiet!
I really dislike this team. I find the main characters in the cartoon irritating, and their colours are a mess. Which is a shame, because if they had a good colour scheme I'd rate the toys themselves quite highly, at least individually. The animal breastplate gimmick is interesting and they have decent vehicle modes.
Voting for Jaguar... Jargar... Jargua... Jallguar... Jaga... you know, the black car.

I'm still deciding who to vote for here. They are all fine toys but none of them leap to mind as my favourite at all. Nothing wrong with them, but just not outstanding. I shouldn't say that actually, as they have quite a strong fan following. If it were the Rescue Force versions, I'd vote on the tank, but this version doesn't have claw arms. I might just vote Leo Zachary Smith as he is the only one I own.
