Pacific Rim Vs. Transformers - Which Is Better?

4. Strength

Pacific Rim Transformers
Paramount

This is another no brainer. Should a Jaeger catch hold of a pesky Transformer during a face off, there’s no way it isn’t getting crushed like a tin can under a steam roller. They can wield cargo ships like baseball bats, are implemented with plasma cannons, and the OGs are fuelled by a !*$% nuclear reactor.

Transformers do have a deceptive strength, but comparatively it's feeble when pitted against the powerhouses designed to utilise their environment like literal toys. One wrong step and the Transformers would be flattened under the sheer size, weight, and might of a Jaeger - though it would probably feel the same as treading on a lego does for us, so I wouldn't recommend this method of robot desctruction.

Changing into a fancy car is a neat gimmick, but Jaegers literally use them as weapons to bounce off kaiju heads for fun. Try zipping around in a lamborghini when there’s a gravity sling throwing you about.

Winner: Pacific Rim
