Hoist’s Top 14 Transformers of 2014

As the Old Year ends and before the New Year begins, I thought it would be fun to look back on the bots that were added to my collection over the past year. Some of these may have been released in years prior, but they didn’t get to me until 2014. Let’s get started…

Favorite Fandom Output

Without a doubt, it’s the art. Here are few of the many, many examples of fan art that I have enjoyed, mostly found on tumblr. Click the pictures below for links to the original art.

Windblade has been popular lately.

Love me some Fort Max!

Nautica had fan art within hours of making her debut.

Skids and Getaway, purveyors of thought warfare!

Favorite Character Design

Even though he was around before MTMTE, my favorite Design is Fortress Maximus. He’s not flashy. He’s not funny-looking. He’s a pretty straight-forward bruising hulk of an Autobot and that’s why I like him.

Bad Aft Fort Max

It’s not going to be a good day for those ‘Cons.

Fort Max and Overloard

Payback!

Now, he is the new Duly Appointed Enforcer of the Tyrest Accord, a position formerly held, and defined, by Ultra Magnus. He’s currently taking care of Luna 1 with Red Alert. Considering the symbols on the other side of Luna 1 and how they might play into the cryptic message the Skids received after going through Tyrest’s space bridge portal, I’m sure we’ll be seeing Max again.
