Never owned the G1 toys, but I'd have to say Divebomb because of his rivalry with Swoop in the UK Marvel stories. Razorclaw is a close second, recently picked up the Botcon Razorclaw (the Lio Breaker repaint/mould) and he really suits that mould.

Whaaaaaaaat? Ravage was in G1 and he became a predacon. Ergo he's a G1 predacon. ;)

Somewhere between Divebomb & Razorclaw for me. The detail on Divebomb is very cool, while Razorclaw has that evil Soundwave-esque face. My Razorclaw love stems entirely from that moody, shadowy glance as Shockwave grabbed him by the arm slightly off panel in 'Prey'.

Nitpicking-wise; Rhino's and Bulls aren't predators, so technically they shouldn't be called Predacon's either. I'd like to see Tantrum and Headstrong recast as say, a crocodile and a... zebra whose parents were shot by a hoodlum in a dark alley.

Divebomb for me. I simply love bird Decepticons. Though why is this in toys?

I think he meant Predacons as in the G1 combiner...

I like Rampage. Solely for the fact that he's specifically supposed to be a tiger, but there's virtually nothing to actually distinguish him as that.

Plus his toy's nifty. He looks wicked ninja cool and has very late-80s-HasTak holes through his upper arms.

Tantrum... I like bull transformers, I think it's because I like cows.

Dammit, now I have to go back and edit my answer in Cliffy's thread...

Yup. I was just being snarky.

If I had to pick one of those five I'd probably say Headstrong since he seems to be the most solidly built. The real allure of the set is Predaking though since he's one of two G1 combiners with elbows and hip joints.
