The Transformers Collection

2006-12-30T15:06:43Z

12.20.111.27:

'''Transformers Collection''' (also known as T/F Collection or TFC), is [[Takara]]'s series of [[Generation 1 (toyline)|Generation One]] reissues. Each toy is housed inside a "book-box"-style package that opens just like a book, complete with a small booklet containing profiles of the reissued character and a couple of random characters, episodes of the cartoon and a small portion of the Japanese catalogue.

Some figures combine accessories from different versions of the toys. So far, twenty-one sets have been reissued. Many of these releases have been accompanied by [[redeco]]es [[exclusive]] to Takara's [[e-Hobby]] online service, as well as other ''Transformers'' reiussues not part of the Collection line. It is unknown whether or not Takara will continue releasing the T/F Collection figures but it is on an indefinite hiatus while the movie is being made.

Legends Class (2005)

2006-12-30T14:40:36Z

12.20.111.27: Menasor URL was incorrect

This line of 3" Transformers was originally available in smaller "Market Six" chain stores like Meijers for around $3.99, although later waves were available at Toys "R" Us and K-Mart. The molds are scaled down versions of [[Cybertron (franchise)|Cybertron]]-original figures, with less detail and different transformations.

Later, the molds were repainted in G1-style color schemes for the ''Classics'' line.

''Note: There is some confusion as to the actual name of the price-point. It was variously solicited online as'' Cybertron All-Stars, Cybertron Micro Series, ''and'' Legends of Cybertron. ''However, both the'' Classics ''versions and Hasbro Toyshop now list the figures as being'' Legends ''class, so that title seems to have won out.''
