This year, fans are asked to select winners in each of three categories (parentheticals and quotation marks are mine, based on clarifications from Hasbro. Also, note that any characters or persons already inducted into the Hall of Fame in previous years are ineligible for nomination this year):
- Favorite Transformers (robot) character
- Favorite "Underrated" Transformers (robot) character
- Favorite Transformers-associated musical act
There are several points of confusion or concern about the ways that these polls are conducted. "Underrated" has not been well-defined (and, honestly, I don't see any way to define it well, especially not such that a character so characterized would be able to win what is, inevitably, a popularity contest), and there so few musical acts associated with Transformers (especially after removing people already inducted into the Hall of Fame in previous years, whether or not voted on for this specific category) that I don't think that particular category has any business being a part of the Hall of Fame to start with.
But, that said, here are my choices for the two character-related categories:
Favorite (not already inducted) character: Sky-Byte
Favorite "underrated" character: Scrounge
