Timewars, seeing Megatron and Galvatron fighting of a small army was the most kickass scene ever.

Legacy of Unicron. Why?

Death's Head
The most massive battle scenes in any Transformers story to date.
Inferno's sacrifice.
Shockwave's assassination.
The origin of Unicron / The Transformers.
Far better plot that the other two contenders.
Probably a whole load of other reasons I can't remember at the moment.

Space Pirates.
It was probably my least favourite when I was younger, but I've begun to appreciate the story more and more, esp as Time Wars continues to fall apart under increasingly close examination.
It's just chock full of great characterisation, some Furman-patented TF ultra-violence, and rips along at a roaring old pace.

Don´t vote. Too young to remember anything of it. Except for Armada that is going on Chanel 5 of course, but that ain´t the voting´s about, so...

Danke danke! ^_^

I´m not that young really, but young enough not to remember much from TF. Had plans to rent the movie, but ended up with Kill Bill... :/

I think that's probably Sweden's Channel 5, rather than five.

Got it man! Kanal 5, the commercial channel. :roll:

Thety send it in the mornings, wich means I get a daily dose before I go to the school. :) Even if I´d prefer to see another serie, they´ve broadcast Armade atleast 4-5 times by now, starting to know the episodes by heart...

@Spiderfrommars: Why thank you! :) TF is not that popular if you ask my friends. But hey, they don´t like anything I do, everything from my intrerest in militaria, to my support for the Antifeministic coalition here in Sweden.

And before you ask, yes, I am for equallaty, I just don´t think feminism is the right way. Now we do not talk about this ever again.

More Starscream for the people! ;) :lol:

I just heard him speak swedish, except for one or two sound clipp, and the swedish voice kicks ass. And I only have Armada to refer to, but anyway... :)

*edit*
Besides, he´s a jet! The only thing cooler then a jet is a sub, and I boubt THAT´ll ever come in TF. :P

Eh, I think I lost you...

What I meant was that he dont sound so, feminine with the swedish voice. I prefer goril voices in front of male ones (:P), but not on guys. Even if it dosen´t matter, aren´t transformers sexles? :P

*edit*

This is getting to off-topic, so I am gonna leave it here... :)
