Since there are a fair number of Transformers fans on here, I thought maybe it could have its own thread. I'll start things off with the question: What is your favorite series/season?
I mentioned a while back that I was going to give the G1 Takara shows a try. I've finished Headmasters and am currently seven episodes in to Masterforce. While Headmasters was kind of a chore, really just a novelty for continuing the American series, I'm really enjoying Masterforce. It's very Japanese, and sometimes unintentionally funny, but overall it's really solid. I can easily say that it's my second favorite series after the combined entity that is Beast Wars/Beast Machines. The few episodes of the Unicron Trilogy I'd seen convinced me that the Japanese shouldn't touch Transformers. I now know otherwise, and when they try, they can even use human characters in an effective, interesting way.
Weigh in? I know Animated is highly praised, and I regret that I've only seen a few episodes (which I did enjoy). After I'm done with all the G1 material I was thinking about picking up either Animated or Robots in Disguise. I'll probably never sit through any of the Unicron Trilogy series.
