A 3D summary of my Top 10 3rd-Party Transformers of 2018, with first place at upper left, going in reading order. In general, Optimus wins last year, with 4 of 10 slots; Breakdown and Unique Toys also scored 2 slots each. For alt modes, trucks win, with 4 of 10 slots (not counting ST Commander’s missile carrier thing), followed closely by Lamborghinis with 3 of 10 slots (2 of the same character). Functional doors or cockpits are also present on half of these—love that trend.
