I'm just wondering how many TF are there with lots of articulations I mean that all forms of action pose is possible like the Gundam EMSIA or MSIA ....

I haven't got any Gundam or EMSIA or MSIA so I cannot make a comparison with regards to articulations or poseability. Some TF's are pretty much poseable like the MP editions, Classics, Alternators/Binaltechs etc. However, if you are looking for a super poseable TFs I think there's but one in my mind right now and it's got to be Revoltech Pat Lee Prime and Ultra Magnus. Now the catch is that these figures cannot be classified as true Transformers since those two figures do not transform into truck mode however, using Revoltechs revolutionary joint system -- only your imigination limits the poseability of this Revoltech Prime and Ultramagnus. Hope this helps.

Most of the newer TF lines are pretty poseable. TF Cybertron/Galaxy Force toys are so far the best among Armada and Energon. But I'm sure the TF Classics toys will give these a run for their money in terms of poseability.
Beast Wars toys are pretty good too...due to the introduction of ball joints. Alternators/Binaltech are ok...except they have a lot of car parts and other kibble on their body parts that hinder poseability...and you wouldn't wana pose a BT too much coz the paint might chip.
Like what Viper said, Revoltechs are poseable but do not transform.
Hope this also helps.

You can check out Rohml's reviews on some TF toys. He usually tests their poseability and balance by doing his patent pending kick test His reviews can be found on our site.

If you'll compare the classic TF with the EMSIA Gundam..EMSIAs are far better articulated because of its version 2 joints,joints in the neck,feet,torso,etc(you know what i mean)..I have a classic Optimus and its very articulated too.I think the articulation would be the same as the 2nd or 3rd gen MSIA..
And if ur asking about the kneeling position, yes it can

might want to think about the Titaniums a little more if you intend to pose the stuff a lot; they're transformable and poseable but they seem to be best for display.
and yes, Classics and Cybertron for the win. lots of kneelers possible.
- last "and other dynamic poses" maximal

TF Classics and Cybertron lines have lots of articulation, but there are other TF lines which are good as well. Try TF Energon/Superlink and even some TF Armada/Micron Legend toys. They also have a lot of articulation, though you might get spoiled by the engineering done in Cybertron and Classics. If you're not particular about transforming beasts, then Beastwars is also very good.
