The most unlucky TF ever

Post by Cassettacon 27 »

Since Nevermore said that we should stop beating dead horses, I thought that this subject would fit under a new horse to beat.

Now, your opinion on who is the most unlucky TF from any and/or all TF series ever produced.

My vote is Waspinator from BW. The poor guy can never get a break.

I'd say its Skids. Barely seen in the cartoon, and in the comic where he actually got a bit of characterisation he spent most of the time stuck in limbo whilst Galvy went on a rampage.

damn someone beat me to it seconds Skids . That limbo thing plus plus those nasty monsters that followed him out which made deciding to commit suicide in a nuclear reactor to beat them look like a good option.

Trypticon.

In the cartoon (at least) he was supposed to be all powerful and intimidating...yet he never EVER won. Never!

Metroplex always kicked his ass every single time. Hell, Daniel and Wheelie took him down with minimal effort in Headmasters.

Then as far as the comics are concerned, Hound defeated him with a hologram in an issue of the Manga, and he got pussy-whiped by Ratbat in the US comics becuase he was using up too much energon.

Typticon is a total loser.

Actually I think trypticon left more to avoid a dinobot (and once they enevitable recovered autobot) full on assult. It wouldn't be long before escape would be too difficult. To be different rattrap is last lucky.
He became a total wuss in BM, and yet has no universe toy.

Beast Wars Waspinator and Quickstrike-both never got girlfriends and were always blasted to hell and back BM Rattrap-tehnicaly they ruined him:rant: and RID asides from the cool looking figures the series is a bit letdown really-the running joke with the Girl with the Red cars and sideburn stalking her were dull after a while:glance: ,

How about Wheeljack. I mean, other than getting killed he was always having his stuff blow up in his face.

In my opinion Longtooth isn´t that bad,he some what okay... but there just are so many better ones to get


The most unlucky, In my opinion Bumblebee,why did he have to be so weak. and the toy versions of G1 Ironhide and Ratchet why did they have to be without a head, they could´ve been designed a lot better ?

Gears or Huffer, they always find the negative in something even though there is some good benefits...can't they just lighten up? Sadly no...unless Megatron removes their personality components then maybe there'd be a chance...just maybe!!

S- Megatron is that you?

G- Here's a hint!!

I didn't think they were codenames, but the moniker's given to them at birth/creation? Either way, it's possible the names sound better in the original cybertronian...

Maybe "codenames" isn't the appropriate term. Still awful.

Yeah... poor Starscream. All he wanted was ultimate power... :(
It really stinks that he died in the movie.

starscream he had megatron beat but menosaur messed him up and even though he wasn't smart enough to kill Megatron before throwing him out of Astrotrain, how was he to know that Unicron would rescue megatron
