10) Animated (2007)
Transformers Animated has a really cool aesthetic, and there’s a lot of that here in this version of Optimus—the very cartoony shapes, the curvy legs, the “heroic” proportions. It’s different, and fun! But I’m sorry, I cannot help but shudder every time I look at his unmasked face. It’s a little better with the mask on, but still.
