I don't remember that one.
I've always love Prime's speech as he confronts Evil Matrix in on The Edge of Extinction.

A few spring to mind:
Prime's speech at the observatory in TF1.
"It's just you and me now, Megatron!"
"No Prime, it's just me!"
Marvel G1
Predaking towers over a wounded Megatron whose had half his face removed.
"I am Predaking, the greatest hunting machine in the galaxy and you little robot are my prey!"
"I am noone's prey. I am Megatron the Conquerer!"
Megatron proceeds to defeat Predaking showing us all what a badass he is.
TF:TM 1986
Springer - "I got better thing's to do tonight than die!"
Megatron, dying and facing the planet sized Unicron - "Nobody summons Megatron!"
Last Stand of the Wreckers
Rotorstorm - "Wreckers Combine!", slight pause, "Well I thought it was funny!" leads into ne of the most dramatic TF death scenes ever.
Overlord - "You all make the same whimpering sound when you die!"
Dark of the Moon
Megatron to Prime - "Who would you be without me?"
Micromasters Miniseries
Fortress Maximus - "I can think of a dozen ways you could have handled that better!"
Ultra Magnus - "Well next time, use one of them!"

"Er...": Hound (Marvel G2).
I like it because I'd never seen a robot use a colloquialism before. Previously their speech patterns in the comics had been reasonably grandiose, punctuated in the earlier days by things like "By Iacon's great dome", or "By the Sacred Spires"!
It was nice to have a bit of the other, usually by Furman I think, like when Slag says "Oo-eck, Decepticons", or Impactor calling Xaaron a 'wily old buzzard'.

It never quite works for me when I read the old comics and one of the robots is talking like an extra from Chucklevision. I guess it just because it hasn't been imitated since. Even british writers tend to use american colloquialisms.
I remember spending the last 10 mins of ROTF wondering why the Fallen's face was so important...

City of Fear: The dead rise from the ground.
Ultra Magnus, Sizzle, Fizzle and Guzzle: 'By the celestial spires!'
Flywheeels: 'Oo-eck.'
Enemy Action: The Seacons attack Galvatron in their less than imposing debut.
Galvatron: 'What is this? Shockwave sends fish against me? Does he expect me to laugh myself to death?'
Skalor: 'Laugh this off, Galvatron. No one bad mouths Skalor and lives.'
*Skalor blasts Galvatron, with no effect. Then is knocked out with one punch*
Galvatron: 'Sadly, that is no longer the case.'
Virtually anything said by Deaths Head.
