You're just an Legacy Armada Smokescreen away from being able to try to build one!

Anyone tried this with the original Armada toys?

Were these all released at the same time? I'm sure I've got Prime and Red Alert, and a couple of cons, but I don't recall having Hot Shot.

I believe they were. But like all McDs toys they were probably rotated in and out of Happy Meals by week Bogatan might no more |

I remember the Optimus toys being quite common, and was always finding them at boot fairs etc.
(And yes, they always greeted me with an 'allo guvna!)

I find it it hard to believe I ate enough in a McDonalds to get any of these toys at all. I'll have to inspect the Armada box again to see what I have.

I remember picking up a lot of these from a convention in 2002 when Armada was 'new!' I'm sure it was the one with the Prowl police car.

I never knew Mighty Robot was a thing. Somehow that doesn't make me want one. I've never seen a Hotshot or Smokescreen, Smokey looks rubbish, Hotshot looks like it might not be awful just weird. Prime is the nearest thing to a toy there.

Mighty robot! Meaty vehicles!
All the robot modes are a little janky, but Hot Shot has the cutest car mode, so despite my general loathing of the character I’ll have to go with him.
And no, I don’t think we’ll be seeing Happy Meal toys for Transformers One, sadly, now that most fast food chains seem to have committed to not filling landfills with too much plastic crap. Obviously these would be an exception, but in general it’s probably for the best. Probably.

It's ok. They still sell drinks and food in containers with plastic crap.

Cyclonus for me - although Jumpstarter is a great gimmick, it's hard to beat spinny flying things.

The asymmetry of Demolishor hurts me on a level I didn't know I could be hurt on.

I know here I've got Cyclonus and Starscream but I've never seen the other two. There must have been two waves of these surely!
Incidentally, RFC were saying on the last episode that Burger King are doing Transformers One toys.

These polls are dangerous. I want to reacquire all the McArmada toys now.
I have a Unicron McEnergon.
