Let's see, growing up... which Transformers did I have with funky gimmicks, and how many did I really use?
I had all six Throttlebots. Loved the designs, but I don't think I ever used the pullback motors much except on the rare occasion I took one into the kitchen. Wasn't great for carpets, you see. Would have liked if they could have at least raised their arms, though. For any sort of offense, I think I imagined them having lasers in their headlights or something (making Searchlight a boss), while in robot mode, they basically just used their rubsigns as fancy Care Bear Stares.
Jumpstarters, maybe I did a bit more? Twin Twist was the only one I had, and he was my first Transformer, too. But again, carpets.
I did make my Sparkabots spark with my hand a fair bit, though. But they could lift their arms, so I didn't mind either way.
I think those were the only ones I had with gimmicks that weren't things like combining, partners, flip-out weapons, multiple modes, Pretender shells, etc.
