Phase 4: The winning Transformer will be announced at Hasbro's 2011 TRANSFORMERS Hall of Fame ceremony at BotCon in Pasadena, CA, on June 4, 2011.

Hello!
As we approach this year's TRANSFORMERS Hall of Fame induction ceremony in Pasadena, CA, at BotCon, Hasbro is inviting you and your readers to have a role in determining the Class of 2011!
Three beloved and storied TRANSFORMERS characters will be honored with admission as chosen by Hasbro's TRANSFORMERS Hall of Fame internal panel of judges. They are: IRONHIDE, RATCHET and SOUNDWAVE. But this year's class has room for one more robot, which will be selected by TRANSFORMERS' passionate fans.
Outlets throughout the collector-fan community are encouraged to run a Fans' Choice poll with their readers that will help shape the ballot of robots to be voted on to determine the final robot to be enshrined as part of the TRANSFORMERS Hall of Fame's 2011 class.
Hasbro is looking for the top 5 TRANSFORMERS characters to feature in a final vote on Transformers.com beginning Wednesday, April 13, 2011.
Poll your readers to determine the character they wish to be considered for the final spot in the initial class of the TRANSFORMERS Hall of Fame and share your outlet's top 5 list with me no later than 5 p.m. on Wednesday, April 6, 2011. Your outlet's polling results list should be ranked in order of importance from 1-5. All polling result lists will be combined together (each outlet getting an equal voice) with the #1 character on each list worth 5 points, the #2 character worth 4 points, the #3 worth 3 points, etc. The resultant point values will be used to generate the final ballot, which will then be posted to Transformers.com for netwide fan voting through Friday, April 22, 2011.
The winning robot will be announced at Hasbro's 2011 TRANSFORMERS Hall of Fame ceremony at BotCon in Pasadena, CA, on June 4, 2011.

Dinobot was prime example of this. He appeared in just one series, had barely any notable homages or expies to the guy, but was created as so well a character that he was able to shine above the more well-known guys who always get used time and time again just to please the longtime G1 fans without any real consideration.
Therefore, this next entry should be someone who is just as unique, deep, and thoroughly developed a character as Dinobot was. Whoever that may be I don't know at the moment. But whoever it is shouldn't be chosen simply because of being a well-known character.
It should be someone who has had a deep, solid exploration put into the character's nature and very being, and has undergone as many trials and tribulations to achieve a level of quality put into his/her character as Dinobot had.

No need to pick Ratchet or Ironhide, they're already nominated by Hasbro. So is Soundwave.

5. Onslaught/Bruticus (although I guess it would have to be Devastator first)
Edit: Ah, that idea that a character and all his homages will count as one makes a lot of sense.

Waspinator
A lot of Beast guys there. Prolly cause I don't have that much attachment to many G1 characters. Was tempted to say Lockdown, but I don't think he deserves hall of fame status yet after two toys...
Edit: Ditched Trypticon for Waspinator cause WHAT WAS I THINKING???

Posted by First-Aid on March 28th, 2011 @ 11:49pm CDT
2. Shockwave- another well developed and popular character.
3. BW/BM Megatron- I really cannot think of another villain who was so completely intelligent, thorough, and deep enough to become such a complete nemesis.
4. Ravage- this guy was able to survive the wars and show up on prehistoric Earth after getting an upgrade into a Predacon...yet he still turned into a cassette. How lame and cool was that?
5. Alpha Trion- it would seem that, as the father of the Autobots, he should at least get SOME run at some point. He also was a surprisingly deep character in the cartoon series that ended up influencing multiple points in Transformers history.
