Not really, but maybe the closest thing I can think of is the 2007 Movie toys. I never disliked them or regretted buying so many, but they really aren't good representations of the screen designs, and a lot of them obviously got overshadowed by the ROTF line. The jump in accuracy was mind boggling.
But as time goes on and I get less and less attached to the movies, I totally don't care about the accuracy issues ROTF improved on. The 2007 line is fun. I always liked it, but I do like it more now than I did in 2009.

I didn't care for the Legacy Bulkhead mold when I first saw it given how badly it fell short of evoking Prime Bulkhead, but I really liked the Wrecker cameo paintjob so picked a copy up and while it is still a poor interpretation of Prime Bulkhead, it's a pretty swell figure on it's own.
minicons and titan masters. i wasn't thrilled with either and ended up passing on most minicon sets in armada. spent a lot of money and time tracking them down years later. quickly changed my tune with titan masters and have made a number of customs with them now
I would say both AoE Hound and TLK Megatron. I don't generally collect the modern movieverse toys, because I largely don't like the designs. However, I caved for these two, and am very glad that I did. Both look great in either mode and most importantly, are very fun figures to transform.
g1 skylinx. as a kid I swore up and down that he was a baby toy, and told my parents they would never have to worry about me asking them to buy me something that ridiculous... what kinda of kid wanted the robot chicken when he could have something cool like a bunch of construction equipment or a big red truck.
every time my mother walks from my living room to my kitchen for our coffee chats when she comes to visit she looks at Commander Skylinx up on my bookshelf and I think to myself... "okay she remembers that, but she'll still call me by my sister's name half the time." XD
I don't know if I have the strength to handle the look I'd get if she saw the reissue g1 Skylinx I have on display in my bedroom. XD

I like all Transformers, even the ones I hate.
