'''TV Magazine''' (テレビマガジン ''Terebi Magazin'') is a children-oriented monthly Japanese magazine published by [[Kodansha|Kodansha Ltd.]] that primarily features children's television shows and videos, and to a lesser extent, children's video games, model kits, and toys. The content of the magazine is a mix of multi-page spreads featuring photographs of scenes from live-action TV shows, original artwork depicting characters and situations from anime TV shows ("[[Story page|story pages]]"), and black-and-white [[manga]]. As with other periodicals of its kind, it comes with a variety of bonus inserts and supplements each month, mostly consisting of punch-out cardboard items one can fold together. The magazine was first published in [[November 1]], [[1971]], and continues to be published to this day.

Although other similar Japanese magazines such as ''TV Kun'' and ''TV Land'' existed during Generation 1 in Japan, only ''TV Magazine'' featured ''Transformers'' articles and manga during this period. Among ''Transformers'' fans, ''TV Magazine'' is known as the source of anime-style spreads by [[Studio OX]], exclusive manga, and the storyline for the Japanese ''Transformers'' series ''[[Transformers: Zone (franchise)|Zone]]'', ''[[Transformers: Return of Convoy (franchise)|Return of Convoy]]'', and ''[[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Operation Combination (franchise)|Operation Combination]]'', since the anime ended after ''[[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Victory (franchise)|Victory]]''.

The entire run of Generation 1 ''Transformers'' manga from ''TV Magazine'' was republished in book form as ''[[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: The Comics|Transformers: The Comics]]''. ''Transformers'' fans have also made some of the Generation 1 ''Transformers'' material from ''TV Magazine'' available online in English at ''TF Archive'' and ''TF Pulp''.
