Cast your vote!

HASBRO wants to know what we think. Nope, this is not a joke. They really want to know what characters have been thrown around Seibertron.com as HOF worthy? You can check out the original discussion thread here to see some people's thoughts when they heard about the hall of fame being proposed.

The really cool thing though is that each website gets to submit their top five character choices to HASBRO as voted on by their community members. So you now have 7 days to get your vote in by clicking your top three choices in the poll that goes along with this post.

HASBRO “ROLLS OUT” TRANSFORMERS HALL OF FAME
TRANSFORMERS Fans Will Participate in Selecting One Robot for the Class of 2010


Pawtucket, R.I. (March 26, 2010) — After more than 25 years of “MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE” action, Hasbro (NYSE: HAS) is announcing the TRANSFORMERS Hall of Fame that will honor both “ROBOTS IN DISGUISE” and those influential in creating and building this iconic entertainment brand.

Heroic AUTOBOTS OPTIMUS PRIME and BUMBLEBEE, as well as evil DECEPTICONS MEGATRON and STARSCREAM, will be the first robots honored with admission as chosen by Hasbro’s TRANSFORMERS Hall of Fame internal panel of judges. TRANSFORMERS fans around the world will determine a fifth robot to join the inaugural class via voting on the Transformers.com website starting on Monday, May 10, 2010. The winning robot will be revealed Saturday night, June 26, 2010 in Orlando, FL at the annual TRANSFORMERS convention known as “BotCon” when the entire Class of 2010 will be officially inducted.

“The TRANSFORMERS Hall of Fame celebrates a global entertainment property that has sparked the imagination of millions of kids over the past 26 years and remains one of the world’s most iconic brands,” said Greg Lombardo, senior director of marketing for TRANSFORMERS. “Starting in 2010, Hasbro will annually honor fans’ most-loved characters from the world of CYBERTRON as well as those individuals who have helped shape a brand that has spawned an army of popular action figures, multiple animated series and two blockbuster live action movies that set worldwide box office records.”


Next Friday when we send in Seibetron.com's top five choices, HASBRO will then take all the fan website choices (including ours) and tally up the robot points. We will then be able to vote from the top five robot points receivers at Transformers.com to add one robot to the already elite group of bots that has been admitted to the TRANSFORMERS HALL OF FAME already.

G1 Wheelie.

If everyone hates him, everyone knows him. A perfect example of a famous bot. This is a hall of fame afterall. :P

I still want Kremzeek in there, but I don't think I can get enough votes. So I guess i'm going to go with Grimlock. He was tough enough to take over the autobots, strong enough to scare Megatron & ruthless enough to join the decepticons. On A side note, for HOF sigs, I'll help out on those too. Samsonator shouldn't have to do all the work. Just PM me.

I voted for Soundwave, Arcee and Dinobot, Arcee needs a new toy and Dinobot needs to be done in right colors, Soundwave is superior.

Oh man, this was tough. In the end had to pick:

G1 Soundwave
G1 Grimlock
G1 Devastator


I really wanted to cast a vote for BW Ravage, G1 Jazz, and to a lesser extent Hot Rod. If it was Rodimus Prime, Devastator would have been out.

man.. tough...

Poor Dinobot. I voted for him, and he's the best character in Transformers history... but I have a feeling that, if this were a baseball hall of fame vote, Dinobot would be Burt Byleven, the guy all the stat guys love (Just look at his numbers! What did Soundwave ever do in his career?) but that the traditionalist voters won't pick because he "never won a world series" or "just doesn't seem like a hall of famer to them" (His toy sucked).

Optimus Primal!

Prowl (Animated)!

They lived as warriors, soldiers, brothers to their comrades. And died as heroes, legends, saviors to many.

May their sparks live on forever in the Matrix, the Allspark, the Well of All Sparks. The greatest of Cybertron.

I think not everyone is finding the poll to vote. I too didn't understand at first that I had to open this thread as the vote didn't appear in the frontpage news. I'd suggest a link at the frontpage for everyone to see clearly where to vote.

Make sure you're logged in, and browse to the thread. If you reply from within the news story, you don't get the pol1.

Okay...
How did you come up with the list? Is there a predetermined cast (perhaps by Hasbro?) to vote on or did someone pull it out of thin air?

I picked.

BW Dinobot
G1 Soundwave
G1 Jazz

But why is he listed as BW Ravage when G1 Ravage and BW Ravage are the same guy?
