Is the worst thing ever the fact that Wal-Mart still has deluxes on sale, and there aren't any more that I want? I got money, darn it, and the figures are cheap!
If only I liked Animated, I'd be in good shape right now.

Energon Megatron. He is still, truthfully, the only TF I fully regret purchasing. I wasted a $40 birthday gift on him. Stupid!
Granted, Armada Hot Shot and Smokescreen are horrible toys too, but Hot Shot has the charm of being Hot Shot and I knew Smokescreen sucked to begin with.

So, you went out and bought the worst one, wow. Even the GI Joe ref couldn't help that turd of a figure.
Well, slight mistake on my part, he was bought for me. But hey, he has a cute head, turns into a "real" vehicle, and has SKIS! That's enough for me, really. Only EnerCon I would've liked to have as much as him would be Demolishor (or whatever his dump truck form is called... Irontread in Japan, I think? Eh).
Yeah, I think I'm with Scourge, there's too much to love! =D ESPECIALLY G1S3. Best for MAD episodes (S2 = best all-round animation, S1 = best continuous story arcs, IMO)!
Webworld and Call of the Primitives are legendary.
...Oh, wait, sorry, worst things! UhhhhhRebirth? =/ (Nah, it's actually quite a well structured narrative.)

Razor Claw - the emerald green raptor that turns into an emerald green wolverine - sucks, but in my email I dubbed it "among the worst TF things ever" and realized that it does indeed shine in that regard.
Hahaha, funny you should mention that. Even the designer doesn't know what the hell he was thinking with that colour scheme:

TM2 Cheetor is up there on the list of bad things. So is G2 Slingshot.

How about the KT figurine of Tai and Fire Convoy? I mean... damn. Nothing against other cultures, but the Japanese knock me for a loop every so often. I actually own the thing (I bought the set), but have had serious thoughts about getting rid of it.

Hey, if you don't want it, I'll take it off your hands. I mean, two of that thing can surely only make me TWICE as happy as one did!
Oh, by the way, I'm Prowl. Nice to meet you!

Likewise. I'll keep you posted, but I'll probably just leave it somewhat hidden on a corner shelf for now.

I'm actually surprised it took this long to say it... Kiss Players.
Additionally...
Leobreaker
The Speed Planet portion of Cybertron's Show
Beast Machines, almost all of it, save for some Battle For the Spark Toys
Animorphs, as said before
Armada Side Swipe
Superstar Patrick "The Transman" Lee-Funana
Scott McNeil
That about covers it.

I'd have to say with the exception of a few of the throwbacks that were kinda neat, the entire Energon line comes to mind for me. The Autobots more so than the Decepticons because some of the Cons did have some decent figures in that line. I could never get excited about the powerlinx gimick they used on the Autobots though.
