Went with MP Skywarp. I actually like the mold, and Skywarp has always been my favorite of the seekers. But I do give it up to ROTF Prime as a very close second, followed by CS Snake-Eyes and Deadpool fighting it out for 3rd.

While the Buster Prime from TakaraTomy looks better, I'll have to say the US version here is still worthy of toy of the year. Out of all the summer blockbuster movie based toylines, ROTF seems to have been the most successful, and this Prime figure certainly helped with that.

Despite the high level of detail, it's still rugged enough to be played with. It's got great heft, an involved and rather challenging tranformation, and overall it's just pretty damn impressive. Kudos to Haskaromy for turning out a bad ass version of Prime for the mass market.

Not to mention he can combine with Jetfire, which is also an impressive toy regardless of what anyone thinks of the movie's portrayal of his character.
