What figures do you use as G1characters ?

Since it’ll be a year before we get more classics, I’ve started using some characters as other G1 characters, so I got to wondering what characters do other people use? I’ll be happy to hear what you all think is a good makeshift G1 character, so here’s my list so far

Movie Strongarm - Brawn
Cybertron Redalert - Ratchet
Universe Ratchet - Ironhide
Energon Scorponok - Socrponok

Well I don't have many Transformers that I use to represent G1 characters, but I do have a few.

G2 Terradive - SKywarp
RiD Jetfire - Thundercrakcer

And if I ever manage to get my hands on them:
Energon Downshift - Wheeljack
Cybertron Armourhide - Pipes.

What I meant was updated G1 characters with good articulation, like classics.
And I thought of a few more.

Any homages can be represented as G1 in my collection. Grimlock, Unicron, Swoop .... they were mostly in the Energon line. I'm thinking of getting Cybertron Blurr so I have a G1 Blurr representation, actually...

I don't use modern toys as G1 characters. G1 is G1, Classics is Classics, and so on.

I was just being a smart @ss. I don't have many other TF outside of G1. However, I use Tit Scourge as one of the sweeeps.

Do you have Tit Fallen? There’s no toy for the character outside of that one, if you’re a big G1 fan you might want to pick him up.

Well sooooo sorry, I like G1 but don’t have any of the toys except for Sideswipe, I do have a ton of figures spanning through early beast wars to the movie, so I was just wondering what figures from my collection I could use as G1 characters with good articulation until more classics come out. G1 is G1 but you can open up a bit to other things.

I love that figure, but I never mentioned him because I thought he was a homage to WW Kup.

Silver Galvatron as Megatron. The name has a ring 2 it. Not 2 mention shorter to pronounce. Cybertron Soundwave as Soundwave. Energon Shockblast as Shockwave. TakaraGF SS as SS...etc. G1 still lingers, so all the updated figures from Energon and Cybertron dat i bought are all my G1 representatives, so2speak. My collection is mini compared to most, so i tend to be picky.


G1 still rocks dat hard.
