The TF thread is getting a little long, so I thought I'd start a new one.
So, what (or who) is your favorite Prime? Discounting, of course, the 99 billion versions created by fans.
Mine is Laser Optimus Prime from the Generation 2 toyline. His gimmicks were well done, and he was one of the most overly armed Prime's ever made. For those a little new to the toyline, he was repainted into Dark Convoy/Scourge for Car Robots/Robots in Disguise.

There is only one Prime, and that is the 20th Anniversary Optimus. Everything else is crap compared to that bad boy. -Phenotype

I have a one true Prime and just about every Primal.
I have the RID Firetruck Prime. I should have bought that 20th aniversary Prime when I saw him..

My favourite would probably be the 20th Anniversary Edition, if I had it. Since I don't, yet, I'll say Optimal Optimus Primal from Beast Wars. He was a wicked four-way Transformer.
Primal's character is also my favourite Prime from all the TV Series. He was the best to watch.

My old G1 Prime is pouting 'cause he's not 12" and super articulated. Anyway, I think it's a tie between Takara's Masterpiece Optimus Prime (subtley different that the US counterpart, but I hate small smokestacks on a Prime) and Car Robots God Fire Convoy!! (known as RID Omega Prime in US). the Japanese version is once again superior IMO, this time beacuse it speaks Japanese!! WOOHOO! Now If I could just get my hands on a God Fire Convoy giftset....

Fave Prime toy? Gotta be Laser Op. So poseable. So badarse. So grossly-over armed. I've got him posed with scourge on my book case; the two are fighting. In a second, Scourge is going to drop his sword and look like a tool like he allways does.
Fire Convoy annoys me. A character THAT dumb does not deserve a toy that good. OTOH, that's pretty much the motto of any RID chracter...
