Since 1984, [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Generation 1 '''Optimus Prime''']] has received the largest number of toys for any single ''[[Transformers brand|Transformers]]'' character, a testament to the character's enduring popularity and status as a hero to many fans.

Due to the popularity of the character and the evergrowing [[Generation 1 continuity family]], this article had become far too large, causing internet browsers to struggle loading all of its contents—and in the most extreme cases—crashing entirely. For the sake of a nice clean split, we have opted to move all of Optimus Prime's ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' toys into a separate article which can be found '''[[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generations toys|here]]'''.

{{toydesigner|[[Hiroyuki Obara]] (TakaraTomy), [[Shōji Kawamori]] ([[Studio Nue]])}}

: The original Optimus Prime toy started life as the ''[[Diaclone]]'' "Battle Convoy" toy, created by a team of [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] designers who came on board when the original designer fell behind. This team included [[Hiroyuki Obara]] (listed as the sole creator on the toy's patent) and famed mecha designer [[Shōji Kawamori]]. The toy transforms into two major components; the first component being a red and blue White Freightliner WFT-8664T cabover semi-trailer truck partially composed of [[die-cast]] metal, and the second component being a large silver trailer of undetermined model.

:The cab transforms into the [[robot mode]] of Optimus Prime himself, with the addition of a pair of removable blue fists that plug into his headlights. The fists themselves do not store anywhere in vehicle mode, but can fit easily in Prime's opening chest compartment (originally designed to accommodate two ''Diaclone'' driver figures). Prime is armed with a black laser rifle that, by design, he cannot hold straight. His articulation is relatively high for the era due to his transformation, especially in the arms, which feature rotation at the shoulders, biceps, and wrists, along with elbow bends and a backward shoulder joint. He's also one of the few toys of the 1984 wave to have functioning knees, though their use is restricted by his lack of forward hip movement. His smokestacks can rotate, but don't serve an obvious purpose.

:Prime's trailer opens up into his [[Combat Deck (G1)|Combat Deck]], containing the scout drone, [[Roller (G1)|Roller]]. The interior of the Combat Deck features three raised holes that can accommodate Prime's laser rifle, fuel pump and nozzle accessories, as well as seating for two ''Diaclone'' drivers. The Combat Deck's central feature is a missile-armed repair drone pod mounted upon a boom lift arm (featuring another ''Diaclone'' driver cockpit), which can be extended through square holes in the trailer's roof and front end when it is closed. Situated in the base of the boom arm is a spring-loaded launcher that can launch Roller out of the Combat Deck and into action. Roller has seating for four ''Diaclone'' passengers and features a port that can accommodate either Prime's rifle or the fuel pump. The interior space of the trailer allows storage room for one standard Autobot car, which can also be shot forward by the launcher.

:Optimus Prime was subject to several molding and color variations in his early days. The earliest release of the figure featured large rounded fists, a hefty rifle with a large rounded barrel, a thick fuel pump with a detailed nozzle, silver rockets, silver Roller, silver Combat Deck launcher, and metal plates in the floor of the Combat Deck (a holdover from the ''Diaclone'' version of the toy, to which the magnetic feet of the pilots could cling). In short order, new-yet-almost-identical [[mold|molds]] were created, presumably to refresh the tooling as the original had already been heavily used for ''Diaclone'' and so a wider range of factories (going from only Japan to Japan, China, Macau, and more) could produce more units to meet demand quickly, a common practice at the time. Prime's fists were resculpted to be smaller and more angular, the gun's silhouette was heavily revised, the fuel pump and nozzle were simplified, the rockets and launcher recast in black plastic, the Combat Deck's metal plates (and their clips) were removed, and the outer trailer detailing and door hinges were altered. Roller and the Combat Deck's drone pod color was swapped to a light blue, though a third running change soon followed that saw them restored to their original darker blue. The revised mold would be used by subsequent reissues of the Prime toy, though Roller stills fluctuates back and forth between grey and dark blue, depending on how [[show-accuracy|show-accurate]] each reissue wants to be.

:The Japanese release of the figure also underwent the accessory changes, but never featured a silver Roller. Instead, Takara's original release of Prime featured a ''Diaclone''-style Roller without the two rear pegs, and the differently-shaped launcher that accommodated him, before a running change switched over to the Hasbro version. Finally, in some European countries, Prime sported red feet, as opposed to his traditional blue; this version of the figure is also known in some cases to feature a differently-painted forehead crest which leaves the three central indentations unpainted blue.

:For the mainland Europe [[Milton Bradley]] release, there were two [[variant]]s of Optimus Prime available: the first version, manufactured by [[TakaraTomy|Takara]], sported blue feet like most other versions; the second version, manufactured by [[Joustra]]'s parent company [[Ceji]], sported red feet instead.<ref name="3mb" /> On top of that, the Italian release of "Commander" by [[GiG]] eventually featured a [http://www.fredsworkshop.com/vprime6.html later variant] that replaced the rubber tires and [[die-cast]] feet with plastic parts, similar to the US [[KB Toys]] variant of [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#Toys|Ultra Magnus]].

:Having been removed from toy store shelves after 1985, Optimus Prime was made available as a mail-away toy in the "[[Digital Doom on the Highway to Destruction (G1)|Digital Doom on the Highway to Destruction]]" offer in the US in 1986 to coincide with the [[The Transformers: The Movie|Transformers movie]] premiering that year. He cost $21.50 and 5 [[Robot Point]]s. He was also offered in 'The Autobots Have A Special Mission For...' mail-away pamphlet and came with a special "Movie Edition Certificate" and a round sticker that read " Movie . Edition . Transformer" with the Autobot symbol in the middle. (This item is considered ''rare''.)

:Over twenty-plus years, there have been a ''bajillion'' releases of this mold, some identical to the original toy, and some featuring significant variants with notably different paint jobs, color schemes, accessories and other pack-ins. We have striven to list all these variants on this page under their respective series; for a quick-reference list of all variants and releases [[#Notes|check here]]. The cab robot has also been used sparingly to represent different characters; outfitted with different trailers, it has become Generation 1 [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys|Ultra Magnus]] and [[Pepsi Convoy]].

**''Accessories:'' laser blaster, 2 fists (left & right), trailer/Combat Deck, Roller (dark blue), 4 rockets, hose, nozzle, fuel pump
:A limited edition of the Optimus Prime toy sold as a mail-away exclusive by [[Pepsi|PepsiCo]] was made available in North America in 1985. This version of the figure came with a small fold-out leaflet glued to the top-right of the packaging, which contained two Pepsi logo stickers for the buyer to attach to Prime, mid-way through the traditional silver-and-blue stripe on his trailer. [[Canada]] also got a version of this promotional figure, but with much larger stickers that were the full length and height of the trailer. This promotion would go on to serve as the inspiration for the Japanese character of [[Pepsi Convoy]], who would in turn be released by Hasbro as a new "[[#PepsiPrime2007|Pepsi Optimus Prime]]" in 2007.

:Commemorating the death of Optimus Prime in ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'', this set contains a special version of the original Optimus Prime figure with show-inspired translucent blue windows. It was packaged with [[Mirage (G1)/toys|Ligier]] and [[Red Alert (G1)/toys|Alert]], in an apparent homage to the similar ''Diaclone'' "Powered Convoy DX" giftset that packaged the "Powered Convoy" version of the Optimus mold with figures using the molds of Ligier and Alert.

*'''Ultra Magnus''' (1986)
**''ID number:'' '''C-69'''
**''Accessories:'' large robot head, rifle, chest plate, 2 trailer connectors/waist plates, 2 small robot fists (left & right), 2 large robot fists (left & right), 2 missile launchers, 4 missiles
{{note|Ultra Magnus' inner white Optimus Prime redeco was [[repurposing|repurposed]] as Optimus Prime in the ''[[Transformers vs. G.I. Joe]]'' issue "[[The War Never Ends]]".}}
:Ultra Magnus is a [[redeco]] of the ''[[Diaclone]]'' "Powered Convoy" figure, itself a redeco and slight retool of "Battle Convoy", the toy that became the original Optimus Prime figure, sporting a new trailer. One of the last few ''Diaclone'' toys to be released in the ''Transformers'' toyline, Magnus was recolored from the original toy's dark blue, red and black color scheme into a more patriotic red, white and blue, though his chestplate, which was rendered white in his package art followed a more the blue color scheme of his shoulders. He transforms into a Freightliner COE, towing a car-carrier trailer capable of transporting up to four normal-sized Autobot cars. As with Optimus Prime, his cab transforms into a small robot, which can then combine with the trailer to form a "super robot", although all original Generation 1 fiction prior to the 21st century ignored this and simply rendered the super robot as Magnus's default robot form. To facilitate this combination, Magnus sports a slightly longer front axle than Prime, thereby creating tabs on either side of the cab that slide into grooves in the trailer to help lock the small robot into place. He is armed with a rifle sporting two handles that allow either of his [[robot mode]]s to hold it, and two shoulder-mounted missile launchers, whose spring-loaded firing mechanism was removed for the Hasbro release of the figure.

:The ''Diaclone'' Powered Convoy figure had several additional features and modes which were mostly excised or left unmentioned for the ''Transformers'' release of Ultra Magnus. Principally, Powered Convoy came packaged with "Powered Buggy", who was left out of Magnus's release (see [[#Notes|notes below]] for further details). Omitted from Magnus's instructions is the ability of his chestplate and super robot head to combine to form a small vehicle; the Powered Convoy version of the figure included small rolling wheels on the underside of the chestplate which were removed for Ultra Magnus. Additionally, three additional modes were included in the ''Diaclone'' instructions that Hasbro left out: a "preparation base" mode and an "Autobot base" mode were excluded entirely, while the third, a "catapult launcher" mode originally intended and proportioned to accommodate the ''Diaclone'' Jet Robo figure that became [[Starscream (G1)/toys|Starscream]], was shown only on the front of his packaging, interacting with [[Silverbolt (G1)|Silverbolt]]. The Japanese release of Ultra Magnus—released as part of the ''[[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers (toyline)#Toys 2|Scramble City]]'' sub-line—''did'' include instructions for the preparation base and catapult launcher modes, but replaced the original Autobot base mode with a new configuration.

:The original Ultra Magnus figure has been reissued and redecoed several times down the years, and this article strives to list each edition of the figure under its own heading. The first alteration to Magnus, however, was a [[variant|running change]] made while he was still on shelves: Originally, his tires were made of [[rubber tires|rubber]] and he sported paint on both his small and large robot heads, but this version was soon replaced with one featuring plastic tires and no paint on either head. In addition, the clear yellow plastic that formed his windows was removed from the cab, leaving just holes instead; and his thighs and fuel tanks were left white, as opposed to the vacuum metalized chrome ones of the original release.

:The small robot component, as well as being part of Optimus Prime, was also released with a different trailer as [[Pepsi Convoy]].

[[File:PowermasterOptimusPrime toy.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|My Japanese release has a lot more bling. And shorter stacks.]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (Powermaster, 1988)
**''Accessories:'' Hi-Q Powermaster unit, 2 [[laser rifle]]s, 2 twin [[particle beam cannon]]s, super robot head
:Powermaster Optimus Prime was the first new toy of the Autobot leader since the original toy's release in 1984. He is an all-new design, featuring the [[Powermaster]] gimmick: His partner figure, Hi-Q, must be transformed into an engine and attached to Prime's vehicle mode in order to enable the transformation into robot mode.

:Like the original figure, Powermaster Prime is composed of two major components: his truck cab, which transforms into Prime himself, and his trailer, which is essentially a heavily-armed version of the original. The trailer has a fold-down ramp to allow the storage of a smaller Transformer, or perhaps spare accessories. The trailer transforms into a battle station armed with two long black rifles and two grey double-barreled cannons (featuring seating for Powermaster engine figures), all of which Optimus Prime can also wield in his fists.

:Aside from the Powermaster feature itself, the main [[gimmick]] of the toy is the ability of the truck cab to combine with the trailer to form the larger "Super Optimus Prime" figure. This is essentially accomplished by standing the trailer up, folding the cab in half and inserting it into the empty cavity in the trailer's torso, forming an imposing—if almost entirely unposeable—robot form armed with all four weapons. The head of this super robot form is a separate piece which can be stored in the rear of Prime's trailer when not in use. While Hi-Q was always shown plugged into Prime's chest in artwork of this mode (as seen in the picture here), this was actually entirely unnecessary as transforming into Super Optimus Prime didn't require the standard Prime toy's legs to be unlocked.

:The Japanese release of Powermaster Optimus Prime actually represented a new character named [[Ginrai (human)|Ginrai]], and featured several retools: the cab featured die-cast metal, shortened smokestacks, vacuum-metalized plastic and clear blue windows, while the trailer was given retractable super robot fists. This Japanese version was eventually issued by Hasbro in 2003 as part of the [[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]] collection ([[#Commemorative Series|see below]]).

:This toy was later redecoed into the Japanese-exclusive Super Convoy.

:There were several different prototypes made for this toy. [[#Powermaster Optimus Prime design history|See a list here]].

*'''Armored Convoy with Optimus Prime''' (Action Master, 1990)
**''Accessories:'' trailer, 2 laser guns, 4 blaster cannons, 2 Energon exhaust stacks, [[photon bazooka]]
:The largest [[Action Master]] set, this incarnation of Optimus Prime is a non-transforming action figure which comes with the "[[Armored Convoy#Toys|Armored Convoy]]", a large, heavily armed tractor trailer. The cab of the truck transforms into a small jet that can seat one Action Master figure, while the trailer itself converts into a larger battle station with turrets that several Action Masters can man. The sculpt of the Prime figure itself is closely based on his [[character model]], albeit with a coloration that seems to have been based at least partially on the small robot form of his Powermaster body. Unlike the one seen in the commercial, the final product loses paint operations of Prime's upper legs.

:The Action Master Optimus Prime figure was later redecoed with a more [[Show-accuracy|show-accurate]] color scheme and included in the Japanese-exclusive "New Year" reissue of the original Optimus Prime toy in 2002. The Armored Convoy was later redecoed as the ''[[Microman]]: [[Microman#Micro Millennium (1998-2000)|LED Powers]]'' toy [[Microman#MicroTrailer|Micro Trailer]] – sans Optimus Prime, natch – which also received two separate [[Lucky Draw figure|Lucky Draw]] toys as the [[Microman#DarkTrailer|Dark Trailer]] and [[Microman#FlameTrailer|Flame Trailer]].

:This straight reissue of the original Optimus Prime figure was released in Hasbro's European markets in the early 1990s, at the same time as many other Generation 1 figures were being re-released as "[[Classics (Europe)|Classics]]". Oddly, although he shares their golden packaging, Prime is not actually ''identified'' as a "Classics" figure anywhere on his box, but is generally considered to be part of the sub-line for simplicity's sake.

:The first in what would be a deluge of reissues of the original Generation 1 Optimus Prime figure in the 21st century, this Japanese release sported a golden sticker on his packaging announcing the celebration of the Transformers' 15th anniversary in the country. It featured slightly modified fists to help hold the gun better.

:This redeco of the Ginrai tooling of the Powermaster Optimus Prime figure (released concurrently with the 2001 reissue of the Ginrai figure) was a Toys ''R'' Us Japan [[exclusive]] black repaint, made to represent the original Optimus Prime equipped for a special mission. All of his red and blue plastics were changed to black, his clear blue windows were now tinted red, making his overall colour scheme very reminiscent of the now-familiar '[[Black Convoy (disambiguation)|Black Convoy]]' color schemes.

:Labeled "2002 New Year Special", this Japanese-exclusive "Special Specification" (特別仕様 ''Tokubetsu Shiyō'') of the original Generation 1 Optimus Prime figure featured tinted blue windows, like those sported by the "Goodbye Convoy" edition of the toy, as well as show-accurate blue eyes. Prime came with all his original accessories, including ''both'' versions of his rifle, as well as a new die-cast metal Matrix of Leadership accessory, which can be tabbed into his chest. Additionally, the set included a show-accurate redeco of the Action Master Optimus Prime figure, a sheet of Autobot [[insignia]] stickers of varying sizes, and a mouse pad decorated with the Autobot symbol.

{{toydesigner|[[Takashi Kunihiro]] (TakaraTomy)}}
:As the final new-design Optimus Prime toy from the original Generation 1 era, the Japanese-exclusive Star Convoy was a significant departure from previous versions. This incarnation of Prime transforms into an extended-hood cab truck of made-up model pulling an implausibly large trailer, incorporating the motorized "Microcarrier". [[Motorized movement|Powered by four AA batteries]], the Microcarrier drives Star Convoy either forward or backward, spinning a radar dish mounted on the rear of his trailer as he rolls along. Prime's teammate in the [[Battlestars]], [[Grandus (G1)|Grandus]], can link up to the rear of Star Convoy's vehicle mode and be pulled along behind him; [[Sky Garry (G1)|Sky Garry]] can then land atop Grandus, forming a giant vehicle.

:Unlike previous Optimus Prime toys, the cab section does not separate from the trailer for transformation, instead forming the arms of his imposing 12-inch tall robot mode. He lacks any sort of leg articulation in this mode, but the Microcarrier comes into play again, allowing Prime to roll either forward or backward into action.

:Additionally, Star Convoy transforms into a large battle station that interacts with the [[Micromaster]]s that made up the vast majority of the ''Transformer'' toyline at the time. His chest contains a peg that allows Micromaster figures to stand inside it in either robot or base modes, and he comes with a unique Micromaster version of [[Hot Rod (G1)/toys#Return of Convoy|Hot Rod]] not available on its own. He features storage space in his legs for two spring-loaded figure-launching [[Micro Trailer]]s, and comes with one of his own, decorated in a unique black and orange color scheme. In this mode, two ramps are connected to the Microcarrier; when the carrier's treads are set rolling, they do not move the base, but instead act as conveyor belts that carry Micromaster figures down the ramps. The Microcarrier also spins a gun turret mounted between the conveyors, on which Micromaster figures can stand. Finally, a special connector packaged with Star Convoy allows the Microcarrier to be connected up to Grandus's base mode, powering his moving elevator.

:Star Convoy was reissued by Takara in 2005, with some notable alterations to his deco: his white plastic was replaced with metallic silver, and the yellow star on his chest was chromed golden. Star Convoy himself retained some of his original decals but most notably his "simulated head lights" and "wind shield panels" were stamp graphed on him, similarly, Hot Rod's were replaced with the same stamp graphing applications. Additionally, where the original toy had been packaged in robot mode in a tall box decorated with the standard Japanese package art of the time, the reissue was packaged in vehicle mode, in a long, wide box more reminiscent of the original Generation 1 toys.

:The stickers for this reissue have been found to deteriorate over time, with the silver portions showing a prominent fading effect.

==''Generation 2''==
[[File:G2Prime toy.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|I AM OPTIMUS PRIME.]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' ([[1993]], [[1994]])
**''Accessories'': laser blaster, 2 fists (left & right), trailer/Combat Deck, Roller (light blue), 4 rockets, hose, nozzle, fuel pump, 2 missile launchers, 2 missiles, sound and lights module

:The first ''Generation 2'' Optimus Prime toy is a [[redeco]] of the original Generation 1 figure release with some notable new additions to catch him up to the radical 1990s. While his cab robot retained his original red and blue color scheme, his trailer was recast in black, with the original blue and silver striped sticker replaced with a red and silver one displaying Optimus's name. On the first release of the trailer, the internal components and Roller matched the blue of the cab robot. Later, the internal components and Roller were changed to a lighter blue. Another running change followed, making the dark blue of the cab robot match this lighter shade. A bright yellow "Autobot" [[tampograph]] was also added to the back of his right leg.

:''Generation 2'' Optimus Prime comes with all his original accessories, as well as two major new play features. To increase his arsenal, Optimus is now armed with a pair of large, black handheld missile launchers that fire red missiles. These launchers were retooled from the ''[[G.I. Joe (team)|G.I. Joe]]'' figure [http://www.yojoe.com/action/92/barricade.shtml Barricade]. Second, he comes with an electronic "sound and lights module" that can either plug into the front of the trailer (where it resembles a trailer refrigeration unit), or hook onto Optimus's back in [[robot mode]] via a new slot retooled into the cab robot. Unfortunately, the soundbox is heavy enough that doing so can often overpower Prime's hip joints, causing him to topple backward. The soundbox features a large, [[vacuum metallizing|vacuum metalized]] Autobot symbol on its front, and three grey buttons which trigger two flashing red LEDs on either side of the module, and [https://tfwiki.net/mediawiki/images2/c/c6/G2OptimusNoises.ogg a trio of sound effects]: a truck engine noise, a laser gun sound effect, and a very loud "I am Optimus Prime!". The module also features ports on either side into which the missile launchers can peg.

:How the sound module handles batteries is an oddity among Transformers before or since. As G2 Optimus came out during a transitional period where button cell batteries were still fairly expensive, the module uses AA batteries by default, but was originally packed with a small bracket for included LR44 batteries that overrides the AA compartment completely to support the "Try Me!" feature in the box. The original intent is to discard the bracket once the LR44s run out and switch to several AA batteries, but if one were to keep it, the electronics can work equally well solely off far fewer button cell batteries.

**''Accessories'': gun, 2 rockets

:[[Hero (G2)|Hero]] Optimus Prime was the first new-mold Optimus Prime toy created for the ''Generation 2'' line. He transforms into a Kenworth truck of unknown model which defies Optimus convention by being one continuous unit, rather than the traditional cab-and-trailer combo. Decals form the windows of a faux truck face to represent his chest, featuring both his name and what appears to be a [[The many deaths of Optimus Prime|life support readout coming alive towards the end]]. In addition to a small gun, he is armed with a large missile launcher, which can fire a rubber-tipped rocket by means of a bellows which you slam your fist down on to produce a puff of air. The launcher is accessible in both modes, ending up mounted on his right forearm in robot mode; the bellows is attached via a rubber hose and cannot be disconnected, but stores on the figures's back when not in use, as do the rockets. A similar air-launching system with identical missiles was used by the simultaneously-released [[Megatron (G1)/toys#Generation 2|Hero Megatron]], and by Laser Optimus Prime the following year (see below).

:This mold was also used to create [[Sureshot (G2)|Sureshot]] and the [[KB Toys]]-exclusive [[Destructicon (RID)|Destructicon]] [[Scourge (RID)#Destructicon|Scourge]].

*'''Laser Optimus Prime''' ([[1995]])
**''Takara name'': '''Battle Convoy'''
**''Takara ID number'': '''TRF-13'''
**''Accessories'': "Laser cannon", "[[Laser Rod (weapon)|saber weapon]]", missile launcher, 10 missiles, 5 discs, 2 rockets

:Laser Optimus Prime (released in Europe under the name "Laser Rod Optimus Prime") transforms into a mid-1990s Western Star 4964EX, pulling a grey and black fuel tank trailer. The sides of the trailer are decorated with a sticker depicting Prime using a flamethrower to burn down a banner with the words "Optimus Prime Octane" on it. The truck is armed with a disc launcher on the roof of its trailer, which launches five blue discs bearing the ''Generation 2'' Autobot insignia as a knob is turned. Like the other "[[Laser Rod|Laser]]" toys released this year, Prime features electronics powered by two button-cell batteries; in truck mode, pressing the button on the cab's roof causes his headlight to light up with yellow LEDs.

:In the grand Optimus tradition, the cab of Laser Optimus Prime disconnects to become the highly poseable robot mode of Prime himself. Like Powermaster Prime and Hero Prime, the toy features the iconic windshield pecs and grill abs, despite not actually being formed from the actual truck components they emulate. In robot mode, pressing the button on Prime's cab (now on his back) activates a red LED in his right fist which illuminates his clear-plastic sword (which stores beneath his legs in truck mode).

:Prime's trailer unfolds via a spring-loaded transformation mechanism in a battle station that is positively ''bristling'' with varied weaponry. In addition to the disc launcher, it is armed with a "ripple-fire" missile launcher that fires five missiles, an air-powered rocket launcher like the one previously seen on Hero Optimus Prime, and a small laser cannon that mounts on the base's main tower. Both the missile launcher and laser cannon can disconnect and be held by Prime; his LED-fist will illuminate the laser cannon like it does his sword. Additional missiles and a second rocket are stored in grooves inside the sides of the trailer.

:This mold was redecoed by Takara in 2000 as ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|Car Robots]]'' [[Scourge (RID)|Black Convoy]], sans electronics. The following year, it was released by Hasbro as Black Convoy's [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 franchise)|2001 ''Robots in Disguise'' franchise]] counterpart, Scourge, with retooled discs that lacked the Autobot insignia and a blunted sword, again sans electronics. Following this, the next use of the mold was planned to be ''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' [[Toxitron (Universe)|Toxitron]], which ended up being canceled. The modified Scourge tooling was also used when Laser Prime was reissued by Takara in 2006 with a modified deco ([[#G2reissue|see below]]), and for the e-HOBBY exclusive [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#G-2|Laser Ultra Magnus]] that accompanied the reissue's release, with electronics restored. In 2015, ''[[Transformers: Platinum Edition|Platinum Edition Year of the Goat]]'' Optimus Prime, another repaint version, comes with partially transparent plastic torso.

:In addition to being the most popular Generation 2 figure, Laser Optimus Prime was, prior to 2003, a regular contender for most popular Transformers toy ''ever'', back in the days of the annual [[alt.toys.transformers]] fan awards; the toy won twice, and actually lost once to his redeco, Scourge.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (Go-Bot, 1995)
**''Accessories'': Gun

: Part of the second wave of [[Go-Bot (G2)|Go-Bot]]s, this Optimus is a redeco of [[Firecracker#Toys|Firecracker]], transforming into a ''Hot Wheels''-sized 1:64-scale Lamborghini Diablo. Like most Go-Bots, he features high speed axles and can roll very well across smooth surfaces, but lacks the weight to propel him quickly.

: The plastic colors are a "solid" version of Firecracker's color layout, substituting opaque red for transparent red plastic, but also adding blue paint to his helmet for that little extra touch of Optimus. (All of the toys from the first wave that had transparent plastics were released in this wave with opaques instead; [[Blowout#Toys|Blowout]] and Firecracker became new versions of [[Megatron (G1)/toys#Go-Bot|Megatron]] and Optimus Prime respectively, while [[Gearhead#Toys|Gearhead]] and [[Motormouth#Toys|Motormouth]] stayed themselves.)

: In Europe, this deco was sold as Firecracker himself rather than Optimus Prime (at least in the French/Dutch/German packaging variant).

: Optimus was one of only three Go-Bots sold in the Takara ''G-2'' line, but it was a... weird release. His hood was tampographed with a stylized "T" with the ''Transformers'' logo set within the top bar, the same deco that appears on Go-Bots [[Soundwave (G1)/toys#Generation 2|Soundwave]], as well as the Japanese release of Go-Bots [[Megatron (G1)/toys#Go-Bot|Megatron]]. On top of that, his yellow plastics are now the same bright fluorescent yellow as found on Soundwave, thanks to the [[gang-molding]] process used to make this batch. He keeps the blue helmet though. These three toys were sold on cards that were nigh-identical to the Hasbro cards on the front, rather than the usual ''G-2'' style packaging, with only a small bit of Japanese text on the front in the logo. The back side is stylistically close to the ''Generation 2'' packaging, but a "generic" cardback used for all three toys and entirely in Japanese. It's unclear why these toys were released this way; it's possible these were sold in convenience stores or some other similar outlet rather than in conventional toy stores/departments. Even more oddly, the Optimus shown on the cross-sell is actually a [[Sideswipe (G1)#Go-Bot|Sideswipe]] with the car panels hand-painted red, and lacks the "T" on the hood... and yes, he's labeled "Optimus Prime" in Japanese as well, making this the first instance of the character ''not'' being named "Convoy" in Japan.

: The sculpt was later redecoed again for the third wave of Go-Bots to become [[Sideswipe (G1)/toys#Go-Bot|Sideswipe]], and later still into the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|2001 ''Robots in Disguise'']] [[Spychanger]] [[R.E.V.]].

**''Accessories'': Gun, 2 rockets

: This Optimus Prime was to be a redeco of Hero Optimus Prime in dark blue and red. Packaged samples of this toy were produced, but it was ultimately never released.

:The packaged samples feature a "traditional" color scheme for the head, with a silver [[mouthplate]]; the prototype depicted in the official catalog image seen on the right sports an unusual ''red'' mouthplate, which inspired several later toys.

:Since much of the advertising for the ultimately unreleased redeco used an older, outdated name for the "Heroes" assortment, "Combat Heroes", Optimus and an equally unreleased redeco of "Hero" Megatron are commonly referred to by fans as "Combat Heroes" compared to the original "Heroes" releases, although all evidence suggests that Hasbro had never actually intended such a distinction, instead treating them as mere color [[variant]]s. Though the packaging is mostly unchanged (including a reuse of the existing packaging art depicting the original release's color scheme), one of the few minor alterations sees the addition of the name "Hero" (rather than "Combat Hero") to Optimus Prime's name above the (otherwise unchanged) UPC barcode.

:A finished sample of the Hero Optimus Prime redeco was among the rare toys auctioned off for charity at [[BotCon 1996]], along with several other unreleased ''Generation 2'' items.

:The first ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' [[Optimus Primal (BW)/toys|Optimus Primal]] is a Basic size class blue bat which could autotransform into a robot by pulling the tail. Two swords were removable from under its wings for use as weaponry in [[robot mode]]. It was packaged along with an alligator version of Megatron and a ''Beast Wars'' mini-comic.

**''Takara ID number:'' '''C-1'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 "spinal swords", 4 "mega-blast missiles", "mace whip"

: The second Optimus Primal toy was an ape in the Ultra size class. Though the transformation from primate to humanoid was a relatively simplistic one, the toy compensated with more than a fair share of weaponry and action features. A compartment on his right forearm opened to reveal a skull-shaped "mace whip" he could hold in his fist. His left forearm could open into a double-barreled "mega-blast missile" launcher. On his back were two more spring-loaded "mega-blast missile cannons"/launchers which auto-flipped over each shoulder. By pulling a lever in the center of his back, both arms would either spin at the bicep or bend in and out at the elbow, depending on the placement of notch-buttons located on either bicep. This gimmick was shown to be an effort to simulate a gorilla beating its chest while Optimus was in [[beast mode]], but could also be used in robot mode, making him swing his weapons wildly before himself. And finally, like many first-year ''Beast Wars'' toys, a battle mask/"[[mutant head]]" could be deployed over his robot head.

:Takara released the toy as part of their ''Beast Wars'' line in July of 1997, nearly identical to the Hasbro version. The missiles for the Takara version are thinner and simpler than the original Hasbro version, and would be used in all subsequent releases of the mold.

:Just like Optimus Primal's basic bat toy, this figure was released during the short-lived period when the Beast Wars was still considered to be an extension of the Autobot/Decepticon war, and Optimus Primal was the same character as Optimus Prime. This was soon relegated to the realms of [[micro-continuity]] when the ''Beast Wars'' animated series began and clearly established that the two Optimuses were different characters, but the toy remains one that was officially branded as Prime, and is consequently listed here.

:This mold was [[redeco]]ed into ''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' Optimus Primal and [[Transformers: Beast Wars Telemocha Series|Beast Wars Telemocha Series]] DX Convoy, and [[retool]]ed into ''Beast Wars Reborn''/''Beast Wars Tenth Anniversary'' versus pack Optimus Primal.

**''Accessories:'' Laser rifle, 2 missiles

: Available only at [[KB Toys]], ''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' Optimus Prime is a [[redeco]] and slight [[retool]] of the European Generation 1 exclusive [[Turbomaster]] leader [[Thunder Clash#Toys|Thunder Clash]]. It's easy to see why Thunder Clash was chosen to become the new Optimus Prime, given his adherence to Prime tradition: the truck cab disconnects to become the robot, while the trailer unfolds to become an assault tower with twin missile racks. On the original Thunder Clash version of the mold, the racks operated on a gravity-feed system where a new missile drops into the launcher from above each time one was fired, allowing for twelve to be fired in rapid succession using a pinball launcher style mechanism.
:For ''Machine Wars'' Prime, this feature had to be retooled [[for safety reasons]], sealing the gravity feed slot and cutting the original launcher plungers down to just the handles, which do not move. The small missiles were replaced with much larger new molds to prevent choking hazards and triggers were added to the sides of the launchers, becoming regular spring loaded (and unusually powerful) single-firing weapons. There seems to have been some disconnect between the deco artist and whoever handled the redone Thunder Clash [[sticker]]s, as some stickers replicate details already handled by paint on the figure. Like the other four large Machine Wars figures, no guide exists in the instructions to show how said stickers should be applied. Also not noted in the instructions is that the handgun is meant to serve as the drive shaft for the cab, storing between the legs on the backside.

: The [[package art]] for this toy is a retouched version of the art for ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' Laser Optimus Prime (see above), but now positioned so one robot arm is always "off the edge" of the box and unseen - conveniently hiding the sword this toy has never had, yet leaving the Laser Prime faceplate intact.

: This version of the mold was planned to be [[redeco]]ed into [[Menasor (G1)|Menasor]] for the ''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' line, but the release was canceled.

:The first reissue of the original Optimus Prime toy in North America since the Generation 1 toyline reached its end, this "[[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]]" edition of the figure was a Toys"R"Us exclusive. It was ''mostly'' identical to the original figure, save for some necessary modifications made [[for safety reasons]]: In the first instance of what would become a recognizable alteration to the mold, the toy's smokestacks were shortened, while the Combat Deck's firing missiles were elongated to prevent potential choking, as was the case with all other Commemorative Series figures' firing missiles. This release also had the trailer's launching feature removed.

:In 2012, a reissue of the Commemorative Series toy was released. Though the "Commemorative Series" label was not printed anywhere on the packaging, the included instructions retained the name. The toy itself is a mix of different versions.

Meanwhile, the trailer features the lighter gray plastic colors used for the 2008 ''Universe'' release, and the Autobot insignias on the robot's shoulders are tampographed (like on Takara's ''Encore'' version and Hasbro's ''Universe'' 25th Anniversary release). This version also seems to suffer from [[Mold#Deterioration|mold deterioration]].

:Marketed as a reissue of Powermaster Optimus Prime, this Toys"R"Us-exclusive Commemorative Series figure is in truth based on the Ginrai tooling on the toy that had previously been exclusive to Japan. It features a die-cast metal cab with translucent blue windows, and shortened, chrome smokestacks, and comes packaged with the drone [[Apex Bomber]] (formerly Ginrai's partner [[Godbomber]]), who splits into several components and combines with Prime to form "Apex Armor". As with all other Commemorative Series figures, Prime's new spring-loaded missile launcher featured an elongated missile.

:The figure was re-released in Hasbro's Asian markets in 2012, with no known changes to the figure itself but several modifications to the packaging that makes it easy to tell the two releases apart: The flap containing the [[package art]] is omitted entirely, the "Commemorative Series II" label is missing, the age recommendation and safety warning labels, the "Changes from double tractor trailer to battle station to super robot!" call-out and the name of the toy have all been shuffled around (with the words "battle" and "super" being omitted in the process), and most notably, the toy is no longer named "Powermaster Optimus Prime with Apex Armor", but simply "Optimus Prime", with Apex Bomber's existence no longer acknowledged anywhere on the packaging.

:As yet another in an increasingly large number of reissues of the original Generation 1 Optimus Prime toy, this entry in the Japanese-exclusive ''[[The Transformers Collection]]'' line of reissues added a few extra goodies to spice things up. Chiefly, the figure was armed with a new [[energon-axe]], based on the weapon used by Prime in the Generation 1 cartoon episode, "[[More than Meets the Eye, Part 2]]", which plugs into either of the headlight-holes that normally accommodate Prime's fists. Additionally, Prime came packaged with a ring binder folder designed to hold the pull-out character file sheets that were included with all the other ''Transformers Collection'' reissues. Notably, this figure reinstated the original, thick version of Prime's rifle as the standard for all future Japanese reissues.

:Standing only two-and-a-quarter inches tall, ''[[Smallest Transforming Transformers]]'' Optimus Prime was the smallest fully transforming G1 Optimus toy. He features an accurate transformation sequence based on the original full-sized toy, replacing the detachable hands with actual sculpted fists, and even including a tiny version of his laser rifle. Unsurprisingly, he also has little articulation and is only capable of moving his arms and legs.

:His trailer and Roller were also available as a separate set in the same wave, as a rare [[shortpacking|shortpacked]] figure with the ID number "GTF-01B". It is a simplified version of the original Combat Deck, lacking features like the interior deco and the lift arm of the artillery robot, but still nonetheless looking fairly accurate to the original toy.

It was sold as part of Takara's blindpacked ''[[Mini Toy Shop Collection]]'' line, a series of miniaturized figures from numerous classic Takara toylines, including ''Transformers'', ''[[Microman]]'', ''[[Licca Kayama|Licca-chan]]'', ''[[Choro-Q]]'' and others. Both of Prime's modes are represented by non-transforming individual figures, which come together in a two-pack. In-box, his truck form is even packed in a miniature recreation of his original Japanese packaging, which also includes a shrunken version of his sticker sheet. A tiny version of the original Takara Transformers catalog completes the set.

:''20th Anniversary'' Optimus Prime was produced for the stated milestone of the ''Transformers'' brand. So successful was the figure that ''ToyFare'' magazine ultimately ranked it #1 in their quest for "Best Toy Ever".<ref>[http://www.wizarduniverse.com/magazine/toyfare/000054376.cfm ToyFare Magazine Best Toys Ever]</ref>

:Created with the specific purpose of producing an Optimus Prime as accurate to the original animated series as possible, the toy is exceptionally poseable compared to toys prior, partially constructed from die-cast metal, features rubber tires and vacuum-metalized plastic and is heavily detailed, with sliding pistons in its joints and working spring-loaded suspension in vehicle mode. The figure also contains multiple non-intrusive gimmicks, such as a moving [[mouthplate]] to emulate Prime's traditional method of speech, flip-up communications panels on the forearms depicting images of [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys|Bumblebee]] and [[Starscream (G1)/toys|Starscream]], and an opening, light-up Matrix chamber in the chest, which contains a removable vacuum-metalized Matrix of Leadership that can also be pulled open. The Matrix is housed within a removable gray battery box which can light up the matrix core when activated.

:Optimus Prime comes with many accessories in addition to the aforementioned Matrix, including the character's traditional laser rifle, now termed (and henceforth known as) an [[ion blaster]]. The initial release of the figure cast the ion blaster in grey plastic, but later assortments recast it in its more familiar black coloration. Other accessories include a transparent orange energon-axe that plugs into either wrist when Prime's fist is retracted, and even a non-transforming gun mode Megatron weapon, with removable stock, silencer, and scope accessories, in homage to [[Countdown to Extinction (episode)|several]] [[The Insecticon Syndrome|instances]] in the Generation 1 cartoon when Prime was forced to wield his enemy. Pack-in bonuses that came with the figure included an inner cardboard tray illustrated to resemble the interior of Prime's Combat Deck, and in later releases, a small poster drawn by [[Pat Lee]].

:Optimus has a hidden sculpted mouth underneath his face mask, though attempts at removing the mask from the head may entirely damage the action feature.

:Takara's version of the figure was released in their markets slightly earlier, as the first of their long-running ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' line. In addition to coming with a cardboard trailer that the buyer could assemble to "complete" Prime's truck mode, Takara's release differed from Hasbro's by featuring longer smokestacks (kept short on the Hasbro version [[for safety reasons]]), and lacking the black scorch-marked "battle damage" paint applications Hasbro included on the figure's shoulders, wrists, and abdomen. In Western markets, the figure was intended to complement the ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' line.<ref>[http://www.camphortree.net/tf/tidbits/otfcc2004.txt Steve-o's OTFCC 2004 notes]</ref>

:This sculpt was redecoed by Takara into a golden Lucky Draw figure and later released in its original coloration with a trailer as a "Perfect Edition" (see below for both), while Hasbro would later redeco it into their ''[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]''-branded "[[#Classics|DVD Edition]]". The mold was also used to make ''Masterpiece'' [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys|Ultra Magnus]] and "[[Eldedroid|Convoy Black Version]]", representing one of many drones built in Prime's image, rather than Prime himself.

:In ''[[Transformers History Collection]]'', a [[Blindpacking|blind-packed]] Transformers trading figure line, Takara released an add-on hand for ''Masterpiece'' Convoy as a [[Chase figure]]. The hand holds a [[Spike Witwicky (G1)|Spike Witwicky]] figure and clips on to the end of Optimus Prime's arm, making the arm slightly longer than normal.

:Offered as part of a Lucky Draw campaign in August 2004, this extremely rare version of ''Masterpiece'' Convoy is almost entirely vacuum-metalized gold, lacking any other painted detail or stickers. The parts which are not viable are molded in a flat golden plastic; the only exceptions are its rubber tires, the core of the Matrix and the energon-axe, which remain black, blue and orange, respectively. Whether or not the figure was intended to evoke Optimus Prime's [[:File:Goldenlagoon prime perceptor.jpg|entirely-golden appearance]] in the cartoon episode "[[The Golden Lagoon (episode)|The Golden Lagoon]]", when he was coated with [[electrum]], is unknown; given that entirely chroming a figure gold is a fairly standard deco for Lucky Draw figures, it may just be happy coincidence more than anything else.

:The figure comes packaged in the standard ''Masterpiece'' Convoy box, with the only telltale sign of its fabled contents being the replacement of the traditionally silver foil lettering on the box with gold. It's not clear how many were made, but it is thought to be no more than 10 or 20.

{{toydesigner|[[Hisashi Yuki]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:For this re-release of ''Masterpiece'' Convoy, Takara submitted to the biggest desire fans had for the figure and produced a full-size, fully transforming plastic and die-cast metal trailer. The trailer opens up into Convoy's Combat Deck, with storage for its accessories and a functional repair drone, though Roller is conspicuous by its absence. Like the original Combat Deck, the drone can extend through holes in the roof and front of the closed trailer, and the interior has enough room to accommodate one ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' figure in [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]]. Some reports suggest that the paint on this figure's chest chips more easily than past editions.

:This version of Convoy, and Hasbro's 20th Anniversary DVD version of the toy depicts [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]] and [[Grimlock (G1)|Grimlock]] on its communicators rather than Bumblebee and Starscream.

:Continuating the trend begun by their previous release of ''Masterpiece'' Ultra Magnus in 2005, Hasbro [[Australia]] released Convoy Perfect Edition as a Target Australia [[exclusive]] in 2008. Takara themselves then made the figure available for a second time in October 2009.

:Released by TakaraTomy as part of a 2010 promotion honoring the "future era" of the original cartoon (which was set in 2010 in Japanese continuity, you see!), this exceptionally morbid re-release of the ''Masterpiece'' Convoy figure recolors the Autobot leader in <s>blacks and greys</s> ''very'' low-saturated reds and blues, representing ''his dead body'' from ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]''—but don't worry, kids, it's actually a "sleep mode", according to the figure's name! Limited to 2010 pieces in Japan (see what they did there?), it comes with all its customary accessories, including the Perfect Edition trailer, redecoed where appropriate: the trailer itself has become translucent, its energon-axe is now transparent grey, and Megatron, in another movie homage, is rendered in translucent purple, evoking the scene depicting his transformation into [[Galvatron (G1)/toys|Galvatron]]. The figure was also released in other parts of Asia as a limited edition of 2010 as well, combined with the Japanese edition for 4020 total. The Japanese version denotes "Serial Number in Japan: ####/2010" on its bio card with the number out of 2010, while the Asian version denotes "C1 - ####/2010" with the number out of 2010 on its bio card.

:This version of Convoy depicts [[Hot Rod (G1)/toys|Hot Rod]] and [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys|Ultra Magnus]] on its communicators.

**''Accessories:'' Ion blaster, Autobot Matrix of Leadership, gun mode Megatron, Megatron's scope, stock and silencer, energon-axe, sound stage

:"Convoy Last Production" was the final re-use of the ''Masterpiece'' toy mold before it was at last retired after numerous re-releases and redecos. The figure is essentially identical to the original Japanese MP-1 release, aside from a slightly brighter red, and the addition of the words "LAST SHOT" in Transformers typeface molded into the small of Convoy's back, hidden beneath its headlight-flaps in [[robot mode]]. Lacking the trailer of MP-4, the figure instead comes with a redecoed version of the electronic base included with Hasbro's "[[#20thDVD|DVD Edition]]" of the figure from five years prior, which now features a collection of sixteen soundbytes of Convoy delivering famous lines from the Japanese version of the Generation 1 cartoon, recited by the character's original Japanese voice actor [[Tesshō Genda]]. The base was promoted as containing a hint as to the identity of the next ''Masterpiece'' toy; as it would turn out, this was a new version of Convoy himself (see below), foreshadowed by a sound clip on the base which played only intermittently, and which had Convoy announce that he would "soon be reborn".

:For its release in Korea, Hasbro Asia provided a [[collector coin]] featuring truck-mode Optimus Prime on one side and "MP-01L" on the other. The coin came mounted on a card featuring lineart of the Autobot leader's head, the stark black design of which could be mistaken for promoting the earlier "Sleep Mode" release. The limited release (and general lack of enthusiasm for the collector coins in Korea) makes this one of the more difficult Masterpiece coins to find.

{{toydesigner|[[Shogo Hasui]] (TakaraTomy)|[[Junichi Akutsu]] (concept artist)}}

:MP-10 Convoy, advertised as a "perfect new model" on its packaging, is an entirely new tooling of Generation 1 Optimus Prime. Convoy is now smaller, making him more in-scale with other recent ''Masterpiece'' toys, such as [[Hot Rod (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Rodimus]], and comes with a trailer and various accessories. While the front of the vehicle mode's cab is an accurate depiction of a mid-to-late-1980s Freightliner FLT cabover, the back half, (which is, as usual, made out of Convoy's legs) is much larger and robot-leggier in proportion. (So much that they sculpt a ladder on each side.)

:Many of the small features and electronics of the original ''Masterpiece'' mold are left out. Instead, this Convoy features better overall cartoon accuracy (chest interior, head, etc.), an extensive red paint job that covers much of his red plastic, corrected robot mode proportions, improved articulation, and its gun can now collapse and store inside a compartment on its back in either mode. In addition to Convoy's trailer, which can transform into Combat Deck, it also comes with Roller, a small Spike Witwicky figurine, a die-cast metal Matrix of Leadership (with a clear blue plastic center), and an energy axe that slips over Convoy's right hand. Spike can fit inside the cab in vehicle mode, ride in Roller's seat, or fit into any of the seating compartments inside Convoy's trailer. Roller has options to plug in Convoy's gun or pull Convoy's trailer, and the trailer itself can store Convoy's weapons in any mode. Although not easily breakable, care must be taken for posing the index fingers; extending the finger even far would cause it to pop off.

:MP-10 immediately became the gold standard in terms of scale for the Masterpiece line, with all subsequent releases being sized to best match him for nearly a decade.

:This figure was re-released in 2016, with the packaging now advertising the "Long Life Design" award which the ''Masterpiece'' line won that same year.<ref name="lldaward">[https://www.g-mark.org/award/describe/44648 Good Design Long Life Award: Transformers Masterpiece]</ref> This mold was also used to make [[Nemesis Prime (G1)#Masterpiece|MP-10B Black Convoy]].

:Alongside the Trailer (which retains the same function and can hold 4 standard-sized Autobot cars at a time when open), Roller, the Ion Blaster, Matrix of Leadership, and Energon Axe, the Combat Deck's base can be removed and with the new flip-out wheels, Roller (now cast in stark grey with silver rims) can tow it around. The cannon and arm section can also be removed so it can function as a flight stand, while an adapter for [[Dinobot (BW)#Masterpiece|MP-41 Dinobot]]'s display stand is also included, and the Ion Blaster now has 2 effect parts, which can simulate blaster fire and when used with the Sideswipe rocket pack included, can be used as booster flames. He also comes with a fuel hose like that on the original figure, as well as a soundbox feature that can be switched between recorded lines by the character's original Japanese ([[Tesshō Genda]]) and English ([[Peter Cullen]]) voice actors, with transformation effects (though the ascending and descending transformation sounds are spliced together in his English voice) and Douglas Walsh music to boot! As to note, Cullen's clips are closer to the recent [[Aligned]] portrayals.

:Like [[Megatron (G1)/toys#MP36|MP-36 Megatron]], Convoy includes a battle-damaged head and an abdomen cover to replicate the war wounds in the climatic battle in the movie, and alongside a newly designed figure of Spike, he comes with two of Sparkplug and Carly, any of them capable of riding inside via 2 small doors on the side of the cab. A second alternate head is based on his head's rounder design seen in the first season of the cartoon and the Marvel Comics. His accessories can be stored in the trailer's removable undercarriage.

:This figure, with the included intakes and alternate head in place, also doubles as [[Starscream (G1)/toys#MP44|Starscream]] from "[[Megatron's Master Plan, Part 1]]".

:Unfortunately, Convoy has been known to suffer from differing quality control issues. Because of a design flaw, certain plastic parts in his lower ratcheted knee joints tend to build stress during movement and eventually break. Furthermore, grey and yellow paint in parts that tend to get scratched and bumped during transformation have been prone to paint chipping. Some units have come with their [[For safety reasons|soft plastic]] ear antennas on different heads warped in-package. The human minifigures can have their ball jointed limbs rather easily popping out of their sockets and misassembled ( in this case, Carly with her groin part in reverse from the front).

:Unlike MP-01 and MP-10, this version of Convoy did not get a fully localized Hasbro release for English-speaking markets. However, it is being imported by Hasbro through numerous retail outlets with additional branding using the localized Optimus Prime name and presumably with the same Hasbro-branded slipcover and English safety sheet given to other contemporary ''Masterpiece'' releases. In Canada, the figure is being released as an EB Games exclusive, where he'll cost even more than the game consoles sold there! Hasbro's online product description neglects to mention the voice box gimmick, possibly due to English-speaking audiences' unfamiliarity with Japanese ''Transformers'' media and the fairly late reveal of his English-language voice clips.

:This mold was redecoed as [[Nemesis Prime (G1)|Black Convoy]], with the sound gimmick removed, and without the trailer, battle damaged, and Starscream parts.

:Released in conjunction with the 40th anniversary of the ''Transformers'' brand, ''Masterpiece'' MP-44S Optimus Prime is a redeco of "[[#MP44|Convoy Ver.3.0]]", featuring colors based on the [[#The Transformers|original ''The Transformers'' toy]]. Among the heaps of accessories included with the original release of Convoy, Optimus retains only his Ion Blaster (with its beam effect), Energon Axe, and the more rounded head styled after season 1 of the cartoon (here passing the squint test for the toy head). New for this release is a sheet of stickers to reproduce the, erm, sheet of stickers, included with ''The Transformers'' Optimus Prime. As with the previous trailer-less [[Nemesis Prime (G1)#MP49|MP-49 Black Convoy]], the soundbox has been neutered for this release.

:Instead of the standard "Convoy" of Japanese releases based on older media, this toy uses the "Optimus Prime" name. It is explained as a name made popular by Hollywood movies—referring to the [[live-action film series]], which does not change character names in Japanese localization.

**''Accessories:'' "Convoy Gun", missile launcher, missile, energon-axe, 4 fists (2 left, 2 right)

: ''[[Robotmasters (franchise)|Robotmasters]]'' "G1 Convoy" (as he is amusingly referred to even in fiction) visibly takes its cue from ''20th Anniversary'' Optimus Prime, featuring a similar sculpt, but sharing few to none of the larger toy's other attributes, least of all anything that could be described as a successful transformation.

:G1 Convoy comes with two sets of fists, each pair featuring differently-shaped fist holes: one pair with square holes to hold the figure's "Convoy Gun" (as his ion blaster is called), and the other with round 3mm-compatible holes to hold the spring-loaded translucent blue missile launcher (a generic accessory also available with ''Robotmasters'' [[Megatron (BW)/toys|Beast Megatron]] and [[Optimus Primal (BW)/toys|Beast Convoy]]). The fists are swapped out by simply popping them out of the wrist-hinge that holds them in place; the figure also includes an energon-axe that can be inserted into the wrist instead of a fist.

:Due to being molded in translucent plastic, the waist section is prone to breakage, so exercise some caution.

**''Accessories:'' Trailer/Combat Deck, Roller, ion blaster, gas pump, energon-axe, Autobot Matrix of Leadership, [[jet pack|rocket pack]], 8 hands (4 left, 4 right), Autobot insignia stand
{{toydesigner|[[Shōji Kawamori]] (TakaraTomy)}}

: ''[[Hybrid Style]]'' Optimus Prime is an ''insanely'' detailed and complex transforming toy, created under the supervision of famed mecha designer [[Shōji Kawamori]]. Standing only three and three-quarter inches tall in robot mode, the figure is partially constructed from die-cast metal and features one of the most complex transformation sequences ever seen on a ''Transformers'' figure of its size. Alas, the small size of the figure also works against it, as it required several design concessions that resulted in (if we're being nice about it) an unimpressive cab mode.

:Prime is loaded with a ridiculous number of features and accessories. The robot itself is highly poseable, and both the smokestacks on Prime's shoulders and the fuel tanks on his legs can be rotated forward to act as guns, even featuring sculpted detail to this effect. As ever, he comes with a trailer that opens up into his crazy-detailed Combat Deck, featuring more action features than ever before. In trailer mode alone, it features a flip-down support stand so it can stand alone, a spring-loaded pop-out ramp instead of a fold-down one, and when the trailer is split for transformation, the traditional support legs underneath automatically swing out into place. The trailer houses most of Prime's accessories, including his ion blaster (with a moveable ammo clip to allow for multiple poses) and energon-axe, as well as his classic gas pump accessory, now with a poseable wire instead of a rubber hose. Two fold-out compartments provide storage space for six of Prime's interchangeable fists, while the other two remain attached the robot: two clenched, two open, a pointing right fist, a tilted left fist (for holding the ion blaster's ammo clip), and two fists with slots to grip the miniscule Matrix of Leadership that fits in a tiny chamber in Prime's chest. The Combat Deck's artillery robot features two flip-out handles that Prime can grip as if aiming the drone's guns, and Roller is also included, with three different 3mm ports to hold Prime's gun and gas pump. Lastly, Prime comes with a rocket pack like those used by the Autobots in such Generation 1 cartoon episodes as "[[Dinobot Island, Part 1|Dinobot Island]]", and a stand shaped like the Autobot insignia that allows him to be displayed in mid-air, as if in flight. The rocket pack also has 3mm ports for Prime's weapons, and stores on the front of the trailer in vehicle mode.

:Purchase of a ''Hybrid Style'' Optimus Prime at a Japanese [[Toys"R"Us]] store allowed the buyer the option of also purchasing the exclusive ''[[Smallest Transforming Transformers]]'' [[Hot Rod (G1)/toys#Smallest Transforming Transformers|Hot Rod]] toy.

:The toy also received a Hasbro release 11 years later under the [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generations toys#YOTR2017|''Platinum Edition'']] line.

:Available exclusively through e-HOBBY, this black and teal repaint of ''Hybrid Style'' Convoy features the traditional "[[Nemesis Prime (disambiguation)|Nemesis Prime]]" color scheme, but represents a version of Optimus Prime himself. In addition to all the original accessories, the toys also includes several more deliciously metatextual goodies, themed around the ''Generation 2'' toy and comics: two new large guns patterned after the new weapons wielded by the ''Generation 2'' Optimus Prime toy, and two additional (blue) Prime heads that can be swapped with the figure's regular noggin, sculpted explicitly in the style of [[Transformers: Generation 2 (Marvel)|''Generation 2'' comic]] artist [[Derek Yaniger]]. One head is pristine, the other decorated to match the battle damage seen on the cover of the [[War Without End!|first ''Generation 2'' issue]].

:As the more franchise-savvy TransFans may realise, these extra parts, plus the black trailer of Convoy Black Version, can all be used to modify the original, red ''Hybrid Style'' Optimus Prime into a comic-accurate ''Generation 2'' version, complete with a black trailer, trailer-mounted guns and your choice of Yaniger-style heads.

{{toydesigner|[[Steve Bono]] (Hasbro)|[[Marcelo Matere]] (packaging artist)}}

: ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' Optimus Prime transforms into an accurate 1:24 scale Dodge Ram SRT-10. The vehicle mode features rubber tires, functional steering, opening hood, tail gate and doors with a detailed cabin interior. Several of the details of his [[robot mode]] body are based on the sculpt of the 20th Anniversary Optimus Prime figure, but the head itself shares more similarities with the Powermaster mold. He is armed with a small pistol which transforms into his vehicle mode engine.

:This figure was originally conceived by Hasbro to be another character (exactly who is unknown), rather than Optimus Prime, but Takara insisted that the toy be made into Optimus to help it sell well in their markets, as the vehicle mode was no particular draw, given its scarcity in Japan. Reportedly, the figure cost twice as much as other Alternators to construct, so Hasbro had to bow to this demand so Takara would help fund it. Ironically, Takara eventually wound up soliciting the figure ''not'' as Prime, but as his ''[[Transformers: Super-God Masterforce (franchise)|Super-God Masterforce]]'' lookalike, [[Ginrai (human)|Ginrai]] (perhaps connected to the Powermasteresque headsculpt), before its Japanese release was cancelled and moved over into the ''[[Transformers: Kiss Players (toyline)|Kiss Players]]'' toyline (see below).

: It took two further years, but this figure was eventually released as part of the Japanese counterpart to the ''Alternators'' line (''Binaltech'') in 2008. ''Binaltech'' Convoy features some additional paint details, like his silver pelvis, additional patterns on his shoulders, and red paint on his engine-gun, and like all ''Binaltech'' figures, he also includes die-cast metal pieces. Unlike previous Binaltech releases, a bio-card was not included.

:This sculpt was also used to create ''Alternators'' [[Nemesis Prime (G1)|Nemesis Prime]].

{{toydesigner|[[Yuki Ohshima]] (concept artist)}}

: ''[[Transformers: Kiss Players (toyline)|Kiss Players]]'' Convoy is a redeco of ''Alternators'' Optimus Prime. While the figures may appear similar at first glance, given that ''Kiss Players'' Prime is still red, blue and black, there are many subtle differences, not least of all the replacement of the ''Alternators'' figure's bare, flat red plastic with a deep metallic red paint. Several of his body parts are cast in different colors of plastic (for example, his shins, formerly black, are now blue, while his formerly-blue hands are now black), and he features more intricate paint applications on his shoulders, and especially his pelvis, which is decorated to look like Prime's traditional bumper.

:In addition to the small engine-pistol of his ''Alternators'' figure, Prime comes with the "Surfblade", a pink surfboard that can be reconfigured into either two small knives or a large double-bladed sword. As with all the ''Kiss Players'' figures, Prime also comes with a [[plastic|PVC]] figurine of a cute girl: in this case, Marissa Faireborn, who can perch upon his shoulder or sit in his driver's seat, and comes with two pairs of interchangeable arms and legs. Additionally, the set includes a CD featuring the first five episodes of the [[Transformers: Kiss Players (radio drama)|''Kiss Players'' radio drama]], as well as the exclusive bonus audio adventure, "[[Someday, Beneath the Sun]]."

:This set was originally intended to be released under the ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Binaltech Asterisk]]'' line, as "Black Convoy meets Marissa", but this release was cancelled before it was officially even announced.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (6" Cybertron Heroes, 2006)
**''Accessories:'' [[Ion blaster]], display stand

:Released in the first wave of ''Titanium Series'' 6-inch Cybertron Heroes figures, this figure is based on Optimus Prime's [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertronian]] form as seen in the [[Dreamwave Productions|Dreamwave]] comic book "[[Transformers: The War Within|The War Within]]". Prime transforms into a comic-accurate Cybertronian truck in a few steps, and his ion blaster can be slotted in the back of the truck mode cab for storage.

:The figure was personally designed by comic artist [[Don Figueroa]], who created the original comic design in the first place, and his signature is left on the figure in the most literal way: the word "DON" can be seen sculpted into the barrel of his silver ion blaster. The paint on the handle of his ion blaster scuffs rather easily when placed into his hands.

:As a ''Titanium'' figure, Prime is made in large part from die-cast metal, but like so many of the other toys in the ''Titanium'' line, his plastic joints have trouble supporting his heavy metal weight. For that reason, the tiny insufficient clips that hold his shoulders in place are highly prone to breaking off, leaving his shoulders floppy and unable to be secured in robot mode. He comes with the generic display stand shared by all of the 6" "Cybertron Heroes", with a unique removable nameplate.

He transforms into a modern cab-over style truck of made up model, dominated by a large wind vane on his roof. As with most ''Classics'' toys, he features a heat-sensitive [[rubsign]].

:In [[robot mode]], his wind vane transforms into a large ion blaster, and his smokestacks transform into a smaller laser cannon. Additionally, both weapons can combine together to form a double-barrelled over-shoulder weapon. Undocumented in the instructions, Optimus can also use the wind vane as a shield, If one of his fists is folded down. The unusually high amount of yellow paint used throughout the body is supposed to emulate the yellow stickers from the original G1 toy. The toy has a trailer hitch, but does not come with a trailer.

:Unfortunately, the yellow paint on his forearms tends to flake off.

: This ''Classics'' Optimus Prime is a smaller, Deluxe Class figure with a noticeable physical resemblance to Takara's ''[[#Robotmasters|Robotmasters]]'' Prime figure, and a transformation that is about as successful. The figure is armed with a tommy gun-shaped laser rifle that transforms into a turret-like configuration and mounts on the rear of his truck mode, and features a spinning "power punch" action that sees the whole upper half of his torso spin when a button on his back is pressed.

:In the United States, Prime was only available in a special two-pack with a similarly unique ''Classics'' [[Megatron (G1)/toys#Classics (2006)|Megatron toy]], and the specially-produced "[[Optimus Prime vs Megatron: The Ultimate Battle|The Ultimate Battle]]" DVD (which is, inappropriately enough, entirely about the [[Unicron Trilogy]]). The two-pack (including the DVD) was also available as a [[Walmart]] [[exclusive]] "Bonus Value" version with two randomly selected members of the ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)|Cybertron]]'' [[Giant Planet Mini-Con Team]], in the combinations [[Overcast (Cybertron)|Overcast]]/[[Longarm (Cybertron)|Longarm]], Overcast/[[Deepdive (Cybertron)|Deepdive]] and Deepdive/Longarm. International markets, including European countries, saw the two-pack in a considerably smaller, differently-shaped box that was lacking the DVD case (the DVD was instead made available separately). In addition, Mexico, Singapore and some European countries such as the Netherlands and Hungary also received the two figures on individual cardbacks. For the United States market, the two-pack was [[rebranding|rebranded]] and re-released in [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|2003 ''Universe'']]-branded packaging later in 2007, available from Dollar General, Big Lots and [[KB Toys]], and ''again'' in [[Transformers (2010 toyline)|2010 ''Transformers'']]-branded packaging in 2011, this time available from Dollar General and Big Bad Toy Store.

:This figure was later ''also'' made available without redeco as part of the "Leader for the Ages" two-pack released under the [[#Transformers (2007)|live-action movie line]] (see below) and saw several redecos for [[#Universe (2008)|''Universe'']] ("Special Edition", below), ''[[Welcome to Transformers 2010]]'' ("Sons of Cybertron", below) and [[#United|United]] (below).

*'''Optimus Prime''' (20th Anniversary DVD Edition, 2006)
**''Accessories:'' Ion blaster, Autobot Matrix of Leader, gun mode Megatron, Megatron's scope, stock and silencer, energon-axe, display stand

: Produced to coincide with the 20th anniversary of ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'' and its release on DVD by [[Sony]], this edition of Prime is a redeco of his ''[[#Masterpiece|20th Anniversary]]'' figure. It replaces the original's metallic paint with flatter colors and does away with any and all vacuum-metalized plastic, as well as altering several other small details across the body, like the color of the lights on his feet and chest.

:Prime comes with all the accessories of his previous release, although his ever-changing ion blaster is now somewhat confusingly cast in blue plastic. He features one major additional accessory: an electronic display base sculpted with the image of the Matrix and the Autobot insignia. Pressing the insignia's crest triggers a series of electronic soundbytes, mostly quotes from the movie recited not by original actor [[Peter Cullen]], but by Hasbro's in-house actor, [[Ron Hayden]]: "Autobots, transform and roll out!", "I want you to make a special run to Autobot City," "Megatron must be stopped!", "All we need is a little energon, and a lot of luck," and two samples of the classic [[Transformation#The noise|transformation sound effect]], one ascending, one descending.

:The display stand itself was later redecoed as a mail-in prize for TakaraTomy's ''[[Welcome to Transformers 2010]]'' promotion, intended to be used with ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' [[Hot Rod (G1)/toys|Rodimus Convoy]], and again when it was packaged with the "Last Production" run of the Masterpiece Optimus Prime toy.

*'''Pepsi Optimus Prime''' (Autobot, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Left & right fists, ion blaster, trailer

:Inspired by the [[#The Transformers|1985 promotional version]] of Optimus Prime that featured Pepsi stickers on his trailer, this outlandish incarnation of Prime is a slightly altered version of Takara's 2005 [[Pepsi Convoy]] figure (which represented a different character to Prime). The figure was only sold by [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] at various conventions, and given away as a promotional prize by Pepsi, via their [[Mountain Dew]] brand.

:A redeco of the original Generation 1 Optimus Prime cab robot sporting an egregious number of Pepsi-themed paint masks and details, Pepsi Prime's differences from Pepsi Convoy are minimal: he features the shortened smokestacks previously seen on the [[#Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]] release of the mold, the blue pattern on his decals are different (matching the American Pepsi can/bottle look at the time rather than the one used in Japan), and also has a different layout for the Pepsi logo on his left shoulder. Like Pepsi Convoy, he comes with an entirely new trailer unit, specially designed to carry either a single 500ml (16.9 oz) size [[soft drink]] bottle, three 350ml cans, or 12 bottle caps (bottle cap figurines being a common and popular collectible item in Japan). In a first for the Prime mold, the figure's fists store in holes on the underside of the trailer while he is in vehicle mode. His ion blaster (which also stores under the trailer) is the first Hasbro reissue to feature the original, thick-barrel sculpt, which was reinstated to the mold by the ''[[#Transformers Collection|Transformers Collection]]'' release of Prime a few years prior.

:Surely one of the strangest examples of licensed ''Transformers'' products, ''[[Transformers Sports Label|Sports Label]]'' Convoy transforms into a ''shoe''. Something of a [[shellformer]], this baffling incarnation of Prime is colored primarily white and red in his alt mode of a realistic-looking (if notably undersized) Nike Free 7.0 sneaker, complete with gratuitously long real fabric shoelaces. In [[robot mode]], he is made instantly recognizable by his incorporation of some additional blue and silver in predictable areas, and a traditionally Prime-styled head. Less traditionally, and somewhat perversely, Prime's feet are sculpted in the likeness of his own sneaker mode, making it seem like he's wearing himself!

:His gun splits into two halves and stores inside his [[kibble]] in shoe mode; in an undocumented feature, it has two handle pegs on opposite sides, so that it can be held either at its far end or halfway along its length. The gun halves can also be plugged together in two different ways.

:This figure was, in fact, the ''only'' mold in the ''Sports Label'' line. It was redecoed into the "Marine Free" version of Prime himself (see below), and given a new head to create ''Sports Label'' [[Megatron (G1)/toys#Sports Label|Megatron]]''

:A new series of reissues means a new release of the original Generation 1 Optimus Prime figure, and Takara's ''[[Transformers Encore|Encore]]'' series proved no different. This edition of the figure featured no extra accessories, but it did include the original, thick-barrelled version of Prime's rifle, as reinstated to the mold by the ''[[#The Transformers Collection|Transformers Collection]]'' version of the toy a few years prior. Both his blue and red plastics are lighter than normal, though not to the extent of Hasbro's subsequent 25th Anniversary release.

:Notably, this edition addresses the small but persistent issue of the Autobot insignias on Prime's shoulders: Ever since 1984, applying the stickers evenly had been a challenge due to small bumps the figure's shoulders are textured with. Like the [[Pepsi Convoy]] figure released two years prior, ''Encore'' Convoy replaces the stickers with [[tampograph]]s.

*'''Convoy —playing iPod speaker—''' (2007)
**''Accessories:'' Trailer/iPod dock, 2 fists (left and right), ion blaster

: Hot on the heels of their licensing deals with Pepsi and Nike, TakaraTomy got themselves a slice of Apple™ pie and released Convoy —playing [[iPod]] speaker— as part of their small, musically-themed ''[[Transformers Music Label|Music Label]]'' line. This version of Prime is an all-white redeco of the original Generation 1 cab robot, which (much like the "Marine Version" of Prime from the ''[[#Sports Label|Sports Label]]'' line) makes it seem like he ought to be Ultra Magnus. The figure is actually even derived from the retool of the mold created for the original Ultra Magnus figure, as distinguished by the elongated hubcap pegs on the front wheels. Like Pepsi Prime before it, the figure's fists now store in peg holes on the under side of its trailer. The toy lacks any of the original Prime's stickers (even the silver stripe on his chest is now a [[paint operation]]) and includes the original thick-barrelled version of Prime's blaster. The toy features a brand new headsculpt based on the [[#20th Anniversary|20th Anniversary]] Prime figure, given additional poseability not previously seen on the figure by being mounted on a [[ball joint]].

:This, of course, is all secondary to the main draw of the figure: it pulls an all-white trailer, which transforms into a working iPod speaker dock by rotating a substantial wedge of its full length 90 degrees . The dock features three working buttons; power, volume up and volume down, as well as an Autobot sigil indicator light. Included is a wall-plugging (Japanese) A/C adaptor with a long lead that plugs into the reverse of the trailer. Although American importers shouldn't have too much trouble, those living in parts of the world using higher strength A/C current outlets should be warned NOT to simply plug the A/C adaptor in with only a socket adapter, as this will overload the device and fry it completely. Buying the appropriate kind of universal A/C adaptor with advice from an electronics specialty shop is recommended.

:Designated "Optimus Prime" rather than the traditional Japanese "Convoy", this figure is a redeco of the previous ''Music Label'' Convoy figure into the character's traditional red, blue and silver color scheme. Unlike previous re-issues of the mold, iPod Optimus Prime's sports a paint application similar to KissPlayers Convoy, having its ABS/PVC parts painted over with a thin layer of his iconic red, white (silver if you will) and blue motif paint applications (with the exception of his iPod docking trailer). This includes his trailer, though the effect is somewhat marred by the large, visible gap on one side. When reconfigured into dock mode, the interior surfaces surrounding the speakers are decorated with black-on-silver techno-patterns as well as three "Optimus Prime" logos. The recessed space also features a stylised, almost [[Frank Miller]]esque, high-contrast portrait of Prime's face, although this is largely covered when an iPod is inserted. The figure comes in identical packaging to the original ''Music Label'' Convoy, save for the addition of a sticker illustrating the different color of its contents.

**''Accessories:'' Ion blaster

:Rounding out a bumper year of Japanese-[[exclusive]] Generation 1 Optimus Primes, the Takara-licensed Kawada brand ''Diablock'' Convoy is a fully transformable Lego-style block building figure similar in premise to the earlier American ''[[Built to Rule!]]'' sets. The ''Diablock'' figure, however, easily outstrips the ''Built to Rule!'' sets by both being an accurate representation of the toy on which it is based, and being able to transform between modes ''without'' having to be partially disassembled and put back together first.

:Forming a roughly 11-inch figure when fully assembled, ''Diablock'' Convoy is highly articulated, save for his head, which is only able to move up and down. Said head is also by far the most stylised aspect of the figure, with no real attempt to approximate Prime's face or mouthplate, instead featuring only a reversed block that gives the odd impression of a cycloptic eye. It is possibly intended to actually represent his forehead grill, as a yellow block inside his head construction remains barely-visible through a slit in his face, possibly intended to represent the classic toy's yellow eyes.

:The figure's [[transformation scheme]] is based on the original G1 figure, the only differences being that the fists are not removed but become the headlights, and instead of flipping backwards inside the chest, ''Diablock'' Convoy's noggin flips forwards with the aid of opening chest windows. A "laser rifle" in the shape of his ion cannon can be built from black bricks, and stickers bearing the Autobot [[Insignia|faction symbol]] can be placed on his shoulders, although this is not recommended as it is designed to permanently stick to multiple tiles which dislodge easily and may damage the sticker.

:Sold at the rather exorbitant price of $75, this re-release of the original Generation 1 Optimus Prime toy is actually one of the most visually different from the other "straight" reissues of the mold, despite Hasbro's assurance that this is the toy you had as a kid. Positively ''anemic'' in comparison with the original toy, this Prime's red parts are visibly paler than usual, while his blue parts are much lighter (although the version released at Canadian retail reportedly sports a deeper shade of red again). This shade of blue extends to both Roller (a lighter blue than his traditional dark shade, yet darker than the lightest the figure has been in its history) and the internal workings of his Combat Deck, which is itself a much flatter shade of light grey, compared to its normal dark, swirled metallic silver color. In addition, the toy features the now-customary shortened smokestacks, and the elongated missiles seen on the [[#Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]] release, while the Autobot insignias on his shoulders are no longer stickers, but rather tampographs, like on Takara's ''Encore'' release. While all reissues of the Prime mold since 2003 have used the original thick-barreled mold for his ion blaster, this version includes the slender sculpt instead.

:As a 25th anniversary set, Prime includes several new pack-in bonuses: a reprint of the [[The Transformers (issue)|first issue]] of the original [[Marvel Comics|Marvel]] [[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|comic book]], a DVD containing all three parts of the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|animated series]] pilot [[More than Meets the Eye (mini-series)|"More than Meets the Eye"]], and three desktop wallpapers, and a battery-powered Autobot symbol that plays transforming sound effects, part of the first version of the ''Transformers'' [[theme song]], and three voice clips performed by Peter Cullen: "I am Optimus Prime!", "Autobot, transform and roll out!" and "Megatron must be stopped, no matter the cost." There are some reports that the Autobot symbol could be worn out or damaged during the time of purchase.

:Outside the United States, this set was available in a thinner rectangular box. It contained all the original accessories from the American release, but not the DVD. An English-only version of this packaging format was available in Asia and Australia (initially only available at Myer stores, but later also at Toys"R"Us, Kmart and Target, eventually at drastically reduced prices), while a bilingual English/French packaging variant was available in Canada, still including—though not advertised on the packaging—the (English only) comic book.

:''[[Transformers: Alternity|Alternity]]'' Convoy transforms into a 1:32 scale Nissan GT-R, featuring die-cast metal parts, an opening hood, trunk and doors, as well as an interior, complete with his feet and thighs being sculpted to form the back seats. This complex figure stands at 6.5" tall, and is armed with a pair of blasters on each arm. In the hyper-dimensional world of the oft-confusing ''Alternity'' fiction, this figure specifically represents the [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity#Story of Binaltech|Optimus Prime]] of [[universal stream]] [[BT World|Primax 903.0 Beta]].

:The mold suffers from a [[Design flaw|minor design oversight]], wherein the rear Nissan badge collides with his left leg strut when the left foot is hinged over and pegged into a clear plastic socket during transformation, with the results being that the connection is slightly crooked, isn't very secure, and sometimes pops off, and that the crooked pegging often causes the socket to crack.

*'''Sons of Cybertron''' (2010)
**''Accessories:'' Machine gun turret/rifle

:Released as part of [[TakaraTomy]]'s ''[[Welcome to Transformers 2010]]'' campaign, the "Sons of Cybertron" set includes a redeco of the 2006 ''[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]'' "Ultimate Battle" pack Deluxe class [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Classics (2006)|Optimus Prime]], cast mostly in translucent plastic (his shoulders remain opaque [[Unpaintable plastic|Polyoxymethylene (POM)]]). He comes packaged with a similarly translucent redeco of ''Classics'' [[Hot Rod (G1)/toys#Classics (2006)|Rodimus]].

:The set is a counterpart to TakaraTomy's simultaneously-available ''[[Transformers Animated (franchise)|Transformers Animated]]'' Sons of Cybertron set, which also features translucent versions of that line's Deluxe [[Optimus Prime (Animated)/toys|Optimus Prime]] and [[Rodimus Prime (Animated)|Rodimus]] figures. It was intended as an exclusive for the Japanese Chara Hobby 2010 festival, but was also initially offered as a raffle prize at the 2010 "Autobot Alliance" event in the Philippines.,<ref>[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/classics-11/sons-of-cybertron-crystal-classics-optimus-prime-and-rodimus-set-images-169977/ TFW2005.com reports on the Philippines Autobot Alliance/Cybertron Con event.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (Deluxe Class, 2011)
**''Accessories:'' [[Laser Rod (weapon)|Sword]]
{{toydesigner|[[Hisao Nishimoto]] (TakaraTomy)}}

: Part of the sixth wave of the [[Transformers (2010 toyline)#RTS|2010 ''Transformers'' toyline]], this Optimus Prime is a Deluxe Class mold based on the original ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' Laser Optimus Prime toy ([[#LaserOptimusPrime|see above]]). Transforming into an International 8200 truck, he has some influences from the [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|live-action movie Optimus Prime]], including the more defined flames on his hood, athletic [[robot mode]] proportions and a more aggressive-looking translucent orange sword that can be held with both hands for maximum extreme chopitude. Optimus Prime features extensive use of translucent plastic in his arms, head and upper torso for a [[light-piping]] effect. Optimus also has a (non-detachable) matrix gimmick in robot mode that is formed by a relief pattern on the inside of the cab's side windows and is visible through the windshield/chest in robot mode. Like the Legends toy, he's part of ''Reveal the Shield'' and features a [[rubsign]], this time on the roof. He is also ''very'' articulated and poseable, even featuring ankles and wrists that are both [[Ball joint|ball-joint]]ed ''and'' [[Swivel joint|hinged]].

: The original Hasbro [[Stock photography|stock photos]] depict him as having red [[paint operation]]s on his kneecaps and the sunken ridges around his blue abs that the final product lacks. The photos on the cardback show him with a red Autobot symbol on his truck door and blue plastic instead of grey for the piece just in front of his rear tires. The back photo also depicts his side windows as being the same translucent orange as the front ones, when they are, in reality, a garish solid orange.

: Multiple reports suggest that the toy suffers from a [[design flaw]], inferior plastic quality, or both: Due to his hands having peg-holes that are a bit too small to accommodate 5 mm posts, they have a tendency to show stress marks on the inside after pegging his sword handle (or most other pegs) inside. Stress marks also tend to appear near his tiny hinged wrists. Fortunately, there have been no reports of the hands actually ''breaking'' on either location thus far.

: This toy was redecoed into ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]/[[Transformers: Shattered Glass (toyline)|Shattered Glass]]'' [[Optimus Prime (SG)#BotCon2012|Optimus Prime]] and ''Timelines'' [[Scourge (RID)#Timelines|Scourge]], and was retooled into ''Timelines/Shattered Glass'' [[Ultra Magnus (SG)#Timelines|Ultra Magnus]].

: The first toy in TakaraTomy's ''[[Transformers United|United]]'' toyline is a [[redeco]] of the ''[[Transformers: War for Cybertron (franchise)|War for Cybertron]]'' Deluxe Class [[Optimus Prime (WFC)/toys#Generations|Optimus Prime]], transforming into a Cybertronic "armored truck". He now sports a metallic red paint job, with brighter pink paint applications and cooler grey parts, and features several additional paint details to those present on the Hasbro figure in the form of black chest windows and pink lines on his face mask. His rifle transforms as well, folding and plugging into the roof of the vehicle mode. The rifle can also peg into his forearms, and, in its compact configuration, can attach to his shoulders via peg holes on the backs of his front tires or stored behind his back in [[robot mode]].

: This mold was also used to make ''United'' [[Darkside Optimus Prime (United)#Toys|Darkside Optimus Prime]].

:The second Optimus Prime toy in TakaraTomy's ''United'' toyline is another redeco of the ''Classics'' multi-pack Deluxe-sized toy (the first release in Japan), this time featuring an extensive metallic red paint job on the majority of the red plastic, and he features metallic sheen on the unpaintable red plastic and his blue plastic is now brighter. While the paint masks are identical to the Special Edition release, ''United'' Optimus Prime features additional paint operations on the hip, the stomach grille, the fold-up waist panels, the lower chest piece (at least in the front), and the forehead.

:Although the stock photo (pictured from the right) shows both of his biceps painted silver with his Autobot insignia tampographed on the left shoulder, the final product omits the paint operation (due to being molded with unpaintable plastic) and the insignia is placed on his left forearm, just like his ''Classics'' figure.

:The third ''United'' Optimus Prime toy is a redeco and slight retool of the [[#Transformers (2010)|Deluxe Class figure]] from Hasbro's 2010 ''Transformers'' toyline, itself an homage to Prime's ''Generation 2'' [[#LaserOptimusPrime|"Laser" form]]. The toy features translucent blue plastic as opposed to Hasbro's orange, red paint is used on the biceps instead of blue paint, extra red paint applications on the knees like the original's sticker detail, and more broken-up red apps on the shoulders. Silver detailing was added to the cab mode on the grill, the bumper, and near the doors. The blue plastic in cab mode is now black plastic to make the figure more accurate to the ''Generation 2'' original. The gray plastic is changed from the Hasbro version to more closely match the [[#G2reissue|2006 reissue of Laser Optimus Prime]]. Black paint was applied to the cab mode to mimic the fade from red to black on the original Laser Optimus, but still includes a flame deco like the Hasbro version, only in a different design. It lacks the roof-mounted rubsign of the Hasbro version, instead including Autobot insignias on the cab doors. (Disappointingly, they are Generation 1 insignias, rather than ''Generation 2'' ones!) Additionally, a retool was made to the peg on the inside of his right shoulder, to make it shorter and wider than the Hasbro version, allowing it to move freely without hitting the torso, unlike the Hasbro release.

*'''Black Optimus Prime''' ([[June 16]], 2012)
**''Accessories:'' Smokestacks/blaster, wind vane/cannon

:Available [[exclusive]]ly at the [[Tokyo Toy Show]] 2012 (along with [[Optimus Prime (WFC)/toys#Shining|''Prime'' Shining Optimus Prime]]), Black Optimus Prime is a very minor redeco of the previously unreleased [[#GenteiBlack|''Gentei! Gentei!'']] black version of [[#Henkei! Henkei!|''Henkei! Henkei!'' Convoy]], itself a redeco of the [[#Classics (2006)|''Classics'' Voyager Class toy]]. As such, Black Optimus Prime is mostly cast in black plastic, with some gray parts, translucent red windows and teal paint operations.

:The only differences with the unreleased version, aside from the packaging, are that silver paint has been added to the previously unpainted grill/fender area, the blue paint operations have been changed to teal, and the red Autobot insignias have been replaced by purple Decepticon ones. Prime's [[bio]] apparently explains that he took on this new color scheme in order to infiltrate the Decepticon ranks, in response to recent attacks by some new Decepticon forces pretending to be Autobots.

*'''G1 & Movie Sōshireikan Set''' (multi-pack, 2011)
**''ID number:'' '''CH01'''
**''Accessories:'' [[Ion blaster|Laser rifle]], trailer

:This reissue of the original Generation 1 Optimus Prime figure comes in a two-pack with the Deluxe-Class ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#Chronicle|Optimus Prime figure]]. Prime himself is almost identical to the ''Encore'' release, save for his trailer hitch which was retooled to allow a peg to be inserted within it while still being able to be inserted into the trailer itself (making it compatible with his G1 trailer and the new trailer included). Like the Encore release, he features lighter colors and tampographed shoulder symbols (which vary slightly from the Encore release).

:His original trailer is not included with the set; instead, he comes with [[Armored Weapons Platform#Chronicle|a new deluxe-scaled trailer]], not available with any other figure, based on the one towed by Prime in ''Dark of the Moon''. The trailer is compatible with both figures, and sports [[5 mm post|5mm post]]-holes that will hold (among many other things) G1 Prime's laser rifle and the [[MechTech]] weapon Movie Prime is armed with.

:Oddly, for their official [[stock photography|promotional photography]], Takara took an existing photo of Optimus Prime's robot mode that was at least a decade old, having previously been used as a very early (and inaccurate) illustration for Hasbro's then upcoming ''[[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]]'' reissue of the figure.

**''Pieces'': '''10'''

: Intended to be [[exclusive]] to [[BotCon 2011]], this redeco of the regular Optimus Prime Kreon has an open chest showing the [[Matrix of Leadership]] within. He comes with a G1 inspired gun and a black brick display stand.

: We say "intended", because in actuality, the thing appears to have been produced in such huge quantities that it's wound up being made available in ''loads'' of other places—it was handed out at [[San Diego Comic-Con]] 2011, offered as a free giveaway with any order that included Transformers toys on [[Hasbro Toy Shop]]), as a free gift on the cover of the ''[[Awesome Autobots Activity Book]]'', and came as a free gift attached to, of all things, issue #240 of the [[United Kingdom|UK]] children's comic, ''[[Doctor Who]] Adventures'' (but not the UK's [[Transformers (Titan Magazine)|Transformers comic]], you'll note!).

:A supposed factory error even caused this version (minus display stand) to be included in the larger Optimus Prime kit (see below). This problem has (presumably) been fixed, but it was awesome while it lasted.

**''Accessories'': Optimus rifle, weapons sprue (sniper rifle, pistol, submachinegun, handcuffs, radio, ammo box), large tool sprue (shovel, hammer, electric drill, clamp), small tool sprue (socket wrench, screwdriver, wrench, hatchet), 2 traffic cones

: Naturally, Optimus Prime got the biggest of the sets in the first year of ''Kre-O''. The set can be built into a large long-nose tractor-trailer rig with a removable "sleeper" cab that hides a computer station, and a trailer that can carry the set's two motorcycles or open up to carry larger car builds. The robot mode build includes a huge Optimus, based largely on the [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|live-action movie Optimus]], though with a head based almost directly on the [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Classics|''Classics'' Voyager Optimus]]. He is armed with a distressingly plain brick that fires pressure-launched missiles (aka his smokestacks). Most of the leftover parts in robot mode become a "headquarters" which is mostly just a random assemblage of mismatched-color panels and a pair of barricades. Both main builds leave numerous parts unused if you go expressly by the instructions, but hey, it's a building kit, surely you can find ''someplace'' to apply most of them.

: The set comes with a bevy of [[Kreon]]s, including Optimus Prime (this one based heavily on Generation 1 Optimus), [[Bluestreak (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Bluestreak]], [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Skywarp]], and a pair of human [[Stunt Driver]]s. A packaging error resulted in some releases of this set to come with the promotional "Matrix chest" Optimus (see above) rather than the normal version pictured here.

:Speaking of errors, the instruction manuals (he has two) both have errors in their parts listings, showing numerous pieces in the wrong colors or not making it clear that some parts are, well, clear. Making things more confusing, not all of these miscolors are reflected in the step-by-step instructions, while a couple new ones are added there.

:He was only available in a pack of 30 Kreons dubbed "Class of 1984". This set was made for sale at [[San Diego Comic-Con]] 2014. Remaining stock was to be sold at [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] online after the convention, but as the set sold out at the show, that never happened.

: Released in the third wave of "Brick Box" sets, and found only at Dollar General stores, this version of Optimus Prime uses the new 2015 style of Kreon hips and torso, with a hollow hip-peg and a central post inside the torso for increased grip... which also makes the torso incompatible with about four years' worth of Kreons. Nice. His face and torso tampographs are new.

: The set comes with two bags of Kre-O parts, one coming from the first-year Sideswipe set (mostly all the small bits and the now-useless neck joint), the other "new" with some basic bricks and plates. The set has no instructions, as it's just a box of bricks to make whatever with.

: Part of the first wave of "Battle Changers", this version of Optimus Prime is a ''severely'' built-up Kreon that transforms from truck into a robot and back without removing any parts! However, the sheer chunkiness of his limbs hanging off a Kreon torso make for awkward positioning and questionable balljoint grip strength.

:This version of Battle Changers Optimus was only available in a two pack set with [[Megatron (Kre-O)#Battle Changers|Battle Changer Megatron]]. He is ''largely'' the same construction as as the single release, but has numerous small differences. He uses a new "double harness" piece on his torso instead of using two harnesses, leaving more space for his head to grip the neck-post, and his chest/windshield parts are each a single clipped "flag" part rather than the multi-part assembly of the single-pack. And of course there's the additional trailer, which doesn't have any official robot mode rebuild, and only loosely "connects" to the truck-mode Optimus by being lightly hooked to a single short bar on the back of Optimus's right leg.

:"Mini-Con Combiner"' Optimus comes with one standard Kreon and four ''Cityville''-syle mini-Kreons of the same character, each one a different incarnation from various franchises. With some extra parts, the mini-Kreons become limbs to make a larger combiner-bot.

: The main torso-bot is based on Generation 1 Optimus's original body. Two of his limbs are based on ''[[Transformers: Armada (franchise)|Armada]]'' [[Optimus Prime (Armada)|Optimus Prime]]; one "normal" (Inferno helmet), one pre-[[Earth]]-body (Knock Out helmet).

**''ID number'': '''1'''

: Released as a [[candy toy]], [[EZ Collection#Transformers: EZ Collection Gum|''EZ Collection Gum'']] Convoy is another redeco of ''Generations'' Legends Class [[Motormaster (G1)#Generations|Motorbreath]], featuring the retooled parts for accessories he does not come with. He is decoed once again in his ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (franchise)| Generation 2]]''-ish color scheme with the black legs and Generation 2 Autobot symbol, but this time he is cast out of "metallic" (aka "slightly glittery/glossy") plastics, and is absolutely ''coated'' in metallic red paint for most of his cab section. His head is now painted metallic dark blue rather than the prior deco's black.

: As per the toyline's name, he comes with a yellow candy-shelled piece of lemony-flavored gum.

**''Pieces'': '''18'''
**''Accessories'': Missile-launching rifle, missile, energy axe, cannon, left & right rocket pods, "Ultra Magnus" right forearm & fist
:Part of the first wave of "Battle Upgrade" ''[[Hero Mashers]]'' toys, Optimus is a non-transforming action figure with ratchet-joints, about six inches tall. He has multiple peg-holes all over that can be used to mount any ''Hero Mashers'' accessory. As a first-wave figure, he has extra ankle articulation that is not present in later waves (a cut that was made to all ''Hero Mashers'' lines, not just the ''Transformers''-branded ones).

:He is designed with a removable head, forearms, thighs, and lower legs, all of which use the same clip-peg/hole joint. This means his pieces can be swapped around in any order, as well as swapped with any other ''Hero Mashers'' figure... which includes figures from [[Marvel Comics]], ''[[Star Wars (franchise)|Star Wars]]'', and ''[[Jurassic Park|Jurassic World]]'', meaning you can make some pretty freaky combinations.

:While he is the same size as a standard Hero Masher, his larger [[size class|price point]] is made up for with a lot more parts and gimmicks. Both of his hands are removable, which allows for accessories to be placed in his wrist sockets, notably his iconic "energy axe". His rifle is a spring-loaded missile launcher. He also comes with [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#Hero Mashers|Ultra Magnus]]'s right arm, which is a [[redeco]] of ''Hero Mashers'' [[Bulkhead (Prime)#Hero Mashers|Bulkhead]]'s, only molded to remove that toy's missile-launching gimmick.

:Part of the first (and only) wave of larger electronic ''Hero Mashers Transformers'' toys, the base Optimus Prime figure in this set is ''almost'' identical to the above "Battle Upgrade" toy; this version has a closed right fist that can hold accessories rather than the Battle Upgrade version's finger-pointy one.

:However, this set comes with a completely different (and much larger) pile of accessories to turn Optimus (or any other ''Hero Mashers'' figure) into a hulking armored warrior. He comes with an extra left forearm with an electronic light, used to light up clear-plastic accessories when they're plugged into his wrist socket. Several of these accessories take inspiration from the [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|live-action Optimus]]'s gear, notably a very ''[[Transformers: Age of Extinction (film)|Age of Extinction]]''-esque shield.

:Oddly, the big stompy boots accessories are designed in a way that Optimus is really far back in them, leaving a huge gap between his shins and the boots' "knee" guards. Presumably this is to accommodate other ''Hero Mashers'' toys with much larger footprints.

:Legion Class Optimus Prime has been found at Family Dollar and Dollar General stores in the United States. A later [[variant]] repleaced the red Autobot insignia with a black version.

:Available in the ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' "Generation 2" 2-pack alongside [[Hound (G1)/toys#Timelines|Sgt.

He transforms into an off-road vehicle and comes with numerous weapons, all of which peg via 5mm post onto his vehicle rear/legs, shoulders, upper & lower arms, and hands: a spring-loaded, missile-firing launcher, a pistol, a rifle, and two small cannons that respectively form the scope and stock of the rifle. All of his weapons can combine to form an unwieldy superweapon. The flaws from the original mold are likely to be retained from this release.

:This mold also served as the basis of the non-toy ''[[Beast Wars: Uprising]]'' incarnations of [[Guiledart#Beast Wars: Uprising|Guiledart]] and [[Killer Punch#Beast Wars: Uprising|Killer Punch]].

**''Accessories'': Weapons, 4 Gun/Fist/Foots
:Takara's iteration of ''Combiner Wars'' Optimus Maximus is sold in a gift set including all five Autobots (minus the Rodimus mold). This version of Convoy has numerous changes in deco to better match his look in the Generation 1 cartoon. Like ''Unite Warriors'' [[Menasor (G1)#Unite Warriors|Menasor]], the set also features some minor improvements to the original sculpts, such as improved hip-ratchets for Convoy for increased stability. He also had the slightly modified pegs that Legends Class Rodimus (or Blackjack, Runabout, and Runamuck) can securely attach to, which was previously used for Battle Core Optimus Prime. The tampographed Autobot insignia on the roof/flip out head joint are now re-positioned to his side truck panels.

:Compared to the [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generations toys#Combiner Wars|''Combiner Wars'' release]] of the mold, Convoy features additional paint operations on the thighs, truck bumpers, the details on the inner legs, the gestalt chest halves (which are now painted over due to being molded in grey plastic), and the gestalt torso's lower section. The stomach's deco is also minimized, and the silver paint operations on the lower legs are now replaced with gunmetal while the mute metallic blue is now shiny metallic. When it comes to unpaintable plastic; his knee joints and feet are blue while the majority of the shoulder joints are now red. In addition, his gestalt skirt flap is now molded in the same grey color, and the leg panels and thighs are now molded in black, with the latter being painted in silver with some yellow details. As the thighs are painted, care must be taken while transforming him in both modes, as they're somewhat prone to paint scraping. To minimize the damage, the two rear halves must be opened first to transform the legs.

He changes from an [[evergreen]]-inspired robot into a more G1-based truck in just four steps. His instructions are incorrect; for truck mode, his legs must be folded in before the arms, otherwise the locking tabs on the arms will get in the way.

His vehicle modes are both adorned with the "''fūrinkazan''" kanji from Ryu's belt: 風林火山 ("as fast as the wind, as quiet as the forest, as daring as fire, and immovable as the mountain"). He transforms from robot to tanker truck to plane and back. Both vehicle modes have "cockpit" areas to seat any [[Titan Master]] (or compatible) figure. Like all ''Titans Return'' Voyager class figures, he has built in mechanisms to "bulk up" his noggin. In his case these are spring-loaded pylons. The smaller Headmaster's robot mode is also painted to resemble Ryu.

:Convoy was only available in a two-pack with [[Megatron (G1)/toys#Street Fighter II × Transformers|Megatron]] <nowiki>[</nowiki>[[M. Bison#Toys|Vega]]<nowiki>]</nowiki>. This set was available for pre-order on [[TakaraTomy Mall]] from [[November 22]] to [[November 27|27]], 2017, with orders fulfilled in late May 2018. A pre-order goal was set as well: if at least 3000 units were pre-ordered, the set would also come with clear display stands for both toys.

:This two-pack was later brought to the west in 2022 as part of the ''[[Transformers Collaborative]]'' line, released as a [[Target]] and [[Hasbro Pulse]] exclusive in the United States.

[[File:Robosen_Optimus_Prime_stock.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|This isn't your slightly older brother's [[Automorph Technology|automorph.]]]]
*'''Optimus Prime Auto-Converting Robot''' (2021)
**''Accessories'': carrying case, laser rifle, energy axe, non-removable exhaust pipes, wall charger, micro USB to USB 2.0 cable

:Robosen's Optimus Prime is a highly interactive, programmable transforming robot. With over 5,000 pieces, 60 microchips, 27 servo motors, 6 high-intensity [[light-emitting diode|LED]]s, 80 different sound effects including voice clips from Peter Cullen, a dedicated iOS/Android bluetooth app interface, and a pricetag of $750 USD, it blurs the line between "toy" and "high-end showroom electronics." Users can choose between multiple ways to control its robotic movements: including pre-programmed voice commands, pre-programmed app controls, or user-created movement scripts. In truck mode, it can drive as directed or honk its horn. In its [[#MP10|MP-10 Convoy]]-influenced 19"-tall robot mode, it can execute a long list of included scripted actions featuring voice and sound effects, plus an infinite variety of user-programmed poses and user-scripted movement sequences. It has distinct attack movements and sounds to be used with its weapons, and has flip-out wrist communicators featuring sticker images of Megatron and [[Bumblebee (G1)|Bumblebee]].

:The main power source is an internal rechargeable lithium ion battery. The truck's front bumper flips down to expose the charging port and the separate micro USB interface port. A replaceable CR 1220 3V battery powers the "laser rifle's" LED; it's not really a laser, but it's bright. The instructions say don't look straight at it.

:In voice command mode, the spoken user command for conversion between truck and robot modes is officially supposed to be "[[Trademark#Genericized trademarks|convert]]," but secretly the toy will respond the same if you say "transform." It also responds to more than 30 other simple words and phrases which trigger other animations and basic functions: such as: "turn left" to turn left, "move right" to step to the right, or "hero" to strike a superheroic ground-punching pose. 6 months after launch, the Robosen software developers were still releasing new movement animations and firmware updates via channels that can be found in the official app, with no announced end date for their continuing improvements.

:27 servo motors might sound like a lot, but compared to contemporary 1st-party figures costing hundreds and hundreds (''and hundreds!'') of dollars less, this item does lack some some pretty standard joints: such as neck rotation, wrist rotation, and the type of leg rotation that would have allowed the feet to point in different directions.

:Although this Optimus Prime does mostly transform on its own, there are some additional manual adjustments required to make each mode look the way it's advertised. In robot mode, one red panel can be removed from the back of the head, and the gas tanks can be moved into a lower position on the legs. If the gas tanks are not lowered, they can protrude enough to obstruct animation. For vehicle mode, the removable red panel should be reattached, gas tanks moved back so they don't cover the wheels, and the side-view mirrors can be flipped out.

:In truck mode, especially via app control, Optimus is a fully functional remote control vehicle that can move forward, backward, and turn. Its steering does not happen the way real trucks do when they tilt the axles of the front wheels within their wheel wells; Instead, Optimus turns by throwing both legs simultaneously to one side or the other, which gives the appearance that the entire cab is pivoting around a central axis.

:In robot mode, Optimus' default idle behavior is not to stand perfectly still. Instead, he will slowly "breathe" with a subtle inhaling/exhaling motion like a human would have after aerobic exercise. From there, he will occasionally shift into other statuesque poses.

:When asked to turn right or left in robot mode, Optimus is not able to perform that action in two or three normal steps with ankle and hip rotation like a human would. He lacks any leg joints that rotate around a vertical axis, so for him to rotate his body to the right, he must perform a startling stutter shuffle move. He pushes one foot out slightly forward, the other foot slightly backward, and maintains that orientation while rapidly sliding his legs together and apart more than once per second until the asymmetrical rapid sliding friction of his feet against the floor eventually scoots him into facing a different direction. This movement can wear out the paint on his inner soles pretty fast, even on smoother surfaces.

:None of the toy's motorized joints are capable of supporting substantial weight without electricity. This means that when powered off, the robot cannot stand upright without external support. If the toy is in robot mode and senses its batteries are getting low, then to prevent a damaging fall, it will automatically shift into a droopy squatting pose that it can safely sustain while powered off. The average operating time from a full battery charge is approximately 40 minutes. The charging port is not accessible while the robot is standing up. Plugging in the charger while the toy is powered on might endanger fragile components.

:Yes, the above means that this toy in effect cannot be displayed in robot mode when not in active use. It can't really be displayed in the proper truck mode either, as the robot legs need battery power to stay rigidly locked into truck configuration and will droop when turned off. It is rather clearly intended to remain in its protective carrying case most of the time.

:Aside from the laser rifle, none of the LED lights in the eyes, headlights, or tail lights can be deactivated while the toy is powered on. In robot mode, the brake lights shine brightly from the backs of the feet, and the headlights shine from within the forearms. Some of the pre-programmed actions exploit this deliberately, by having Optimus brandish his bright headlights as flip-out weapons. The laser rifle's LED turns on and off with its own physical switch.

:Many of the pre-loaded animations assume Optimus is holding his gun in his right hand and/or that he is holding his axe in his left hand. The toy has no sensors to detect whether those accessories are in place, and the app does not consistently label which animations use accessories. It also does not label the many animations that might damage the toy if attempted while accessories are attached, but <s>transforming</s> converting him or punching the ground would be a bad idea. So don't activate any animations while the accessories are attached unless you're sure you know what will happen.

:In addition to action/fighting/greetings animations, there are also many silly animations available from the official download page, including: Air Guitar with the G1 cartoon theme song, air drumming, a gyrating silent "Christmas" dance, doing push-ups then getting exhausted and passing out, and the {{w|Dab_(dance)|Dab}}.

:The app-controlled motion programming interface is extremely complex. The position of each joint at each step in an animation can be dictated either with numerical parameters, or by sensing the positions of the joints on the toy during programming. Many poses can be strung together to form long action sequences. The app uses long gamified sequences of tutorials to teach programming techniques and unlock more sound clips for use in more animations. Despite that available complexity though, there are some actions used by official animations that cannot be performed in customized sequences: such as a head nod, a full mode conversion, or vehicle driving commands.

:Given this piece's fragility, complexity, and high cost, it is appropriate that it is packaged in a heavy duty foam-padded carrying case, complete with clasps and a handle. But the case can't protect from paint wear issues that arise quickly via actual use. Prime's knuckles and feet will instantly get severe scrape marks if he transforms on a rough surface like concrete, but even smooth unvarnished wood can wear the gloss off the paint before long. Even soft carpeting might not be safe, as some users report toppling issues due to a ''lack'' of traction.

:The sound effect for Prime's gun is of a distinctly "realistic" machine gun, and Hasbro has stated this effect may be changed.<ref>[https://www.theverge.com/circuitbreaker/22623017/optimus-prime-transformer-auto-converting-programmable-robot-hasbro-robosen Review of Robosen Optimus Prime] mentioning the sound effect choice</ref>

:Accurate 3-D images of this Robosen toy appear throughout its app interface, but the app also decorates prominent buttons with drawings of ''[[Evergreen]]'' Optimus. The app and manual also contain many mistakes in spelling, grammar, typography, labeling transposition, etc.

:This item was revealed on [[Hasbro Pulse]] in April 2021, and began shipping to purchasers in October 2021. The TakaraTomy release of the figure is unchanged, though the dialogue will be swapped from English to Japanese with [[Tesshō Genda]] reprising his role.

*'''Flagship Optimus Prime''' (2022)
**''Accessories'': carrying case, laser rifle, energy axe, non-removable exhaust pipes, wall charger, micro USB to USB 2.0 cable

:One year after the release of the original Robosen Optimus Prime, the figure was re-labeled as "Flagship Optimus Prime" and rereleased with no changes.... except the price tag, now $999.

*'''Elite Optimus Prime''' (2022)
**''Accessories'': carrying case, laser rifle, energy axe, non-removable exhaust pipes, wall charger, micro USB to USB 2.0 cable

:"Elite Optimus Prime" is a downsized version of the original (and now "Flagship") Robosen Optimus Prime, standing a mere 16" instead of 19" and costing $699. The different proportions result in a few noticeable but minor visual changes, such as the fuel tanks on his legs being a different shape and elevation compared to the original toy. It retains all the features and programmable functions as the original.

:The first ever collaboration between [[Hasbro]] and one of its main competitors, [[LEGO]], 10302 Optimus Prime is a fully brick-built model of the Autobot leader standing 13.5 inches tall, released under LEGO's ''[[fandom:Brickipedia:Icons|Icons]]'' subtheme. Unlike (most of) Hasbro's ''[[Kre-O]]'' sets that preceded it, this ''LEGO'' Optimus Prime set is fully transformable from robot to truck mode without having to disassemble any parts. He also includes an optional waist piece for fans to either display him with the Generation 1 toy-accurate truck bumper or the cartoon-accurate yellow block-shaped detail. A tall, top-heavy model, stability concerns mean he is not as articulated as a normal action figure, notably lacking bending knees.

:Prime comes with a plethora of brick-built accessories. He includes his ion blaster, his "Energon axe" (which can plug into either wrist once you remove the fist), a pink "Energon cube", the "Autobot Matrix of Leadership" (which can be stored inside his chest), and a jetpack based on the one he borrowed from [[Sideswipe (G1)|Sideswipe]] in "[[More than Meets the Eye, Part 3]]" (which can be attached to his back). Aside from the Matrix, only the ion blaster has dedicated storage when Prime is in truck mode, fitting between his legs to form the truck's trailer hitch; according to a small trivia blurb in the instructions, this is because the ion blaster was the only accessory in the set that was also included with the original Generation 1 Optimus Prime toy. Of course, this is LEGO we're talkin' about, so if you want, you can store the rest of the stuff on him anywhere you see some exposed studs!

:To round things out, an ''[[fandom:Brickipedia:Ultimate Collector's Series|Ultimate Collector's Series]]''-styled display plaque featuring Optimus Prime's name (in both English and Ancient Autobot), function, motto, and [[Tech Spec]]s is included.

:Optimus Prime's [[Instructions|instruction booklet]] contains a short segment written by none other than LEGO Senior Designer [[Joe Kyde]], which showcases the history of the ''Transformers'' brand and the character of Optimus Prime. Unfortunately, said instructions also contain an assembly error: the stickered details on Prime's thighs are applied upside down compared to the Generation 1 [[character model]]. This error is also present on the [[stock photography]] on the packaging. Fortunately, the panels can be removed easily and reinstalled in the correct orientation for a more accurate robot mode. The aforementioned blurb also contains an amusing compromise—giving up on any attempt to reconcile Optimus's famous catchphrase and the need to protect Hasbro's ''Transformers'' [[trademark]], it renders the iconic command as [[:File:Convert and roll out.jpg|"Autobots, ''convert'' and roll out!"]]

[[File:Anti-Gravity-Pedestal-Optimus-Prime.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb]]
*'''Optimus Prime Set'''
**''Release Date'': June 30, 2022
**''Accessories'': Blaster, "[[Flight stand#Flight stands|Tenseg Base]]"
:This uniquely branded ''Anti-Gravity Pedestal Tenseg Base'' release of Optimus Prime is a redeco of ''[[War for Cybertron: Kingdom|Kingdom]]'' [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Kingdom|Ultra Magnus]]'s inner robot. Optimus Prime comes with a silver "Tenseg Base" which he can attach to, simulating a "floating" pose. Optimus Prime retains ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege|Siege]]''/''Kingdom'' Ultra Magnus's blaster accessory, colored in a darker metallic gray in a possible attempt to emulate Prime's usual [[ion blaster]].

:Unusually for TakaraTomy, the vehicle mode stock photos are slightly mistransformed - the upper body isn't slid all the way forward, which makes the truck grille appear misaligned. Also, the Hasbro Pulse listing of the figure labels it as a "[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|''Masterpiece'']]" figure, likely because the figure's box comes sheathed in a ''Masterpiece'' branded sleeve.

:Sold separately are two alternately colored bases; one in heroic Autobot red and the other in '''EVIL''' Decepticon purple. Initially due for release in March 2022, Prime and the bases were eventually released on June 30.

:In a happy accident of cross-compatibility, Tenseg Base Optimus Prime can be equipped with the armor and alternate head included with ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)#Shattered Glass Collection|Shattered Glass Collection]]'' [[Ultra Magnus (SG)#Shattered Glass Collection|Ultra Magnus]] to replicate the [[:File:RedCabPoweredConvoy.jpeg|red cab variant]] of ''[[Diaclone]]'' Powered Convoy released in [[GiG]]'s short-lived ''[[Trasformer]]'' {{sic}} toyline, minus Super Buggy.

:''[[Canon/Transformers]]'' Optimus Prime is a roughly Voyager-sized figure that transforms into a fully licensed Canon [[EOS R5]] digital camera. The toy is 80% the size of the genuine article and features a removable lens attachment, though it must be reattached to him before he can transform to robot mode since it forms his arms. The lens cap is removable and is used as a shield in robot mode. His included [[Matrix of Leadership]] can be pegged onto his lens, just behind the front element. He also comes with a small version of his own camera mode.

:Both his Matrix and small camera accessory can be pegged into his palms. His hands feature a range of movement, with the thumb and index finger being articulated and the remaining fingers joined together.

:This mold was also used to make the concurrently released [[TakaraTomy Mall]] exclusive [[Reflector (G1)#Canon/Transformers 2|Decepticon Refraktor R5]], and redecoed into [[Nemesis Prime (G1)#Canon.2FTransformers|Nemesis Prime.]]

:Produced in collaboration with Japanese space agency {{w|JAXA}} and {{w|Toyota}}, Lunar Cruiser Prime is a roughly [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#MP10|MP-10]] sized figure that transforms into the as-of-2023 current version of Toyata's "Lunar Cruiser" concept for an enclosed lunar rover, in part to promote TakaraTomy's own unmanned "SORA-Q" rover, slated to deploy on the moon in an August 2023 JAXA mission.

:Included are modular solar panel and antenna accessories that can be pegged on various ports on the figure. A [[Matrix of Leadership]] can also be spotted molded into the drivers' compartment.

:The figure was made available one month ahead of its general release on Japanese crowdfunding site Campfire in four tiers:
::*A version identical to the general release.
::*A package including a modular ''Masterpiece'' style stand.
::*A package with a thank you message on the TakaraTomy website, available to 40 people.
::*A package with a personal thank you message from [[Tesshō Genda]], the iconic original Japanese voice of Optimus Prime available to 10 people.

:The campaign opened at 10 AM on June 8, 2023 and ran through midnight on July 17. Within the first 24 hours it blew past 300% of its initial 1 million JPY (approx $7200 USD) goal.

==Notes==
===Before he became Optimus Prime===
[[File:PrototypeTHB.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|Not so Optimus Prime.]]
*The first prototype for Battle Convoy, the ''[[Diaclone]]'' originator of Optimus Prime, was vastly different from the final version, complete with an entirely different transformation and a car carrying trailer. The head lacked the faceplate.
*A later prototype/mock-up was much closer to the final product but still has some noticeable differences, such as a head with much larger antennae, longer smokestacks and a front grille section that includes the rectangular section that would sport the "Freightliner" logo on the real-life truck (on the final toy, the rectangular section is part of the hinged upper section that includes the windows). It would have also been possible to attach the [[ion blaster]] to either of his shoulders.<ref name="diaclonecatalogs">[https://web.archive.org/web/20151017201739/http://1501bc.com/pretf/pictures/tfdiac6b.jpg Diaclone catalog scans] at 1501bc.com.</ref>
*The toy that would ultimately end up as the original Optimus Prime toy was originally released in August [[1983]] as No.17 Battle Convoy from Takara's Diaclone Car Robo toyline in Japan. In [[1984]], [[Joustra]] released their own version (still with ''Diaclone'' sticker on the trailer) as part of their Diaclone line in Europe, either simply called ''Truck'' (according to the pack-in catalog) or ''Diaclone'' (in the pack-in comic). It's possible that [[GiG]] also released a version called ''Camion Convoy'' as part of their ''[[Trasformer]]'' line in Italy, but to this day no packaged sample has surfaced.

===The many releases of Optimus Prime===
[[File:SeveralG1Convoy.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|Too much Prime on my hands.]]
Over the years, the [[#The_Transformers|original Optimus Prime]] has been repackaged and reissued multiple times:
*In the US and Canada, limited edition promotional versions were available sporting Pepsi stickers; the Canadian version has large Pepsi stickers that cover the entire trailer, while the US version only has small Pepsi stickers that partially obscure the lines running across the trailer;
*In addition to the standard Japanese 01 Convoy release, Takara also released the toy as part of the [[#VSX|VSX Convoy vs. Megatron]] two-pack in [[1985]];
*Takara released a variant sporting clear blue windows and as part of the "[[#goodbye|Good Bye Convoy]]" set (packaged with [[Red Alert (G1)#Toys|Alert/Red Alert]] and [[Mirage (G1)#Toys|Ligier/Mirage]]) in [[1986]];
*Hasbro's subsidiary [[Milton Bradley]] (MB) released the toy in Europe in late 1985, following a slight delay due to licensing issues;<ref name="mbtfs">[http://20thcenturytoycollector.com/mb-transformers-part-5/ "The Jetfire vs Optimus Prime mixup"] at 20th Century Toy Collector</ref> there are no less than ''three'' variants of MB-packaged Optimus Prime, one of them manufactured by Takara and sporting blue feet, the other two manufactured by [[Joustra]] as part of a deal with Hasbro/MB, one of them with blue and the other one with red feet;<ref name="3mb">[http://20thcenturytoycollector.com/the-three-mb-optimus-primes/ "The Three MB Optimus Primes"] at 20th Century Toy Collector</ref>
*After Hasbro's European division had changed the packaging from "MB" to "Hasbro", the toy continued to be available in 1986, including more of the Joustra-manufactured red and blue feeted versions, which were apparently also available in the UK in English-only packaging;<ref name="3mb"/>
*[[GiG]] released the toy as ''Commander'' as part of their ''Transformers'' line in Italy in 1985, including an all-plastic variant in 1986;
*[[IGA]] released their version in Mexico in 1985; unsold stock was later imported to a plethora of European countries, including the UK, with Optimus Prime having the yellow paint scraped off his eyes and then having them painted over in red;
*Hasbro reissued the "Original Autobot Leader" toy as part of their European ''[[Classics (Europe)|Classics]]'' line of reissues in [[1991]];
*Hasbro released a [[#Generation_2|redecoed version with additional accessories]] as part of their [[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|''Generation 2'' line]] in [[1993]];
*Takara reissued the original toy in its original 1985 Japanese packaging in [[2000]], with an all-black recolor being available from assorted Japanese conventions and another variant with gold instead of silver parts, stickers, and paint as a [[Lucky Draw figure|lucky draw]] prize;
*Takara reissued the toy again as ''New Year Special'' version in January 2002, sporting clear blue windows (similar to Good Bye Convoy) and featuring additional accessories such as a Matrix necklace and a [[Show-accuracy|show accurate]] recolor of the Action Master Optimus Prime figure;
*Hasbro reissued the toy in the US and the UK as part of their ''[[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Generation One Commemorative Series]]'' line of reissues in [[2002]], sporting shortened down smokestacks [[for safety reasons]];
*Takara reissued the toy once again in [[2003]], as part of their ''[[The Transformers Collection]]'' line of reissues, numbered 00 and featuring additional accessories such as an energon axe;
*Takara released a recolored version featuring a new trailer in December [[2005]], called ''[[Pepsi Convoy]]''.
*Hasbro released their own version of Pepsi Convoy, named "[[#PepsiPrime|Pepsi Optimus Prime]]", as a [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] exclusive in [[2007]], featuring the familiar [[For safety reasons|safety]]-shortened smokestacks of the Commemorative Series reissue.
*In August 2007 TakaraTomy yet again did a rerelease similar to the 2000 Convoy rerelease, this time as part of the "[[Transformers Encore]]" line. This version has a new rifle with a longer handle so Optimus can finally hold it straight.
*TakaraTomy released [http://seibertron.com/advertisement.php?id=8 "Convoy iPod Docking Bay with Speakers"] in September 2007. It is an iPod speaker/dock in the shape of a truck, featuring an all-white version of Convoy with a new head sculpt reminiscent of Masterpiece Convoy as the cab, and a trailer housing a pair of speakers and a docking point for an iPod.
*In March [[2008]], TakaraTomy released a G1-colored version of the iPod Convoy set.
*Hasbro released the ''25th Anniversary'' gift set edition detailed above in 2008, as part of the 2008 ''Universe'' line, once again with [[For safety reasons|shortened smokestacks]].
*TakaraTomy released another reissue based on the ''Encore'' version as part of their ''[[Transformers Chronicle|Chronicle]]'' line in 2011, lacking the original Generation 1 trailer. Instead, the ''Chronicle'' version was available in a two-pack with ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' Deluxe Class [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#Chronicle|Optimus Prime]] and a new trailer that could be used by both Optimuses, thanks to a retooled trailer hitch on the Generation 1 Optimus Prime figure.
*In 2012, Hasbro reissued Optimus Prime again for their Asian markets, this time mixing the 25th Anniversary version of the toy itself with the older ''Commemorative Series'' packaging.<ref name="25thcomm">[http://www.cybertron.ca/boards/showthread.php?t=44388 "Bad news RE: new Commemorative Prime"] at Cybertron.ca.</ref>

===Powermaster Optimus Prime design history===
[[File:EarlyPMPrime1.jpg|upright=1.2|thumb|Overcompensating.]]
[[Powermaster]] Optimus Prime, being the grand toy rebirth of Optimus Prime post-movie, apparently received a lot of thought during the design process. Prime went through an inordinate number of design changes from concept to final with at least three very major revisions:

*The earliest version, as shown in the first patent application for the toy, was to have the Prime cab be a triplechanger, turning from truck cab to jet or robot.<ref>[http://worldwide.espacenet.com/publicationDetails/biblio?DB=EPODOC&II=0&ND=3&adjacent=true&locale=en_EP&FT=D&date=19880604&CC=JP&NR=S63132686A&KC=A Patent #JP63-132686]</ref> The nosecone of the jet and robot legs were released by the Powermaster lock in the same fashion as the legs in the final version. Optimus would have had winged arms in non-super [[robot mode]]. The super robot mode's head was also integrated into the trailer's hitch... and lacked a faceplate.

[[File:EarlyPMPrime2.jpg|thumb|upright=0.55|Blockhead.]]
*The second known version <ref>''[[Transformers Generations (guidebook)|Transformers Generations]]'', p22, p106</ref> ditched the triplechanging gimmick on the cab and simplified things a good bit. This Powermaster Prime has several distinct characteristics only seen in the second design, such as the wider "block head" and two faux smokestacks on top of either shoulder as opposed to one. Also, in a rather odd twist, this design features a black head and fists for both super and regular modes rather than the traditional blue. It also had yellow eyes in either mode a la the original Optimus Prime.

[[File:EarlyPMPrime3.jpg|thumb|upright=0.55|''Triple-Power-Headmaster Optimus Prime'' was just too damn long to put on the box.]]
*The third version <ref>''[[Transformers Generations (guidebook)|Transformers Generations]]'', p106</ref> would quite possibly have been the most gimmick loaded Transformer in the history of the line, simultaneously being a Powermaster, [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmaster]], and [[Triple Changer]]. The Headmaster also would have been a Triple Changer, turning into a sort of armored four-wheeled rover (Roller II?) and robot as well as a rather silly looking Optimus Prime head with four vertically aligned wheels jutting off the sides. It seems that when the extra Headmaster gimmick was scrapped, the super mode head remained separate rather than being reintegrated into the trailer hitch such as on the earliest design. Notably, the body of this design is extremely close to the final design.
*A fourth version is shown in the 1987-88 Transformers product catalog that has several minor differences from both Powermaster Prime and [[Ginrai (human)|God Ginrai]], such as having God Ginrai's sliding fists but in red, a completely different trailer hitch assembly partially based on the third design, an offset Autobot symbol in base mode, extended feet also based on third design, far more detailed super mode outer leg panels, completely different front bumper, and the first instance of single faux shoulder smokestacks rather than two. It is still unknown as to why Powermaster Prime has completely different arms from God Ginrai or all earlier concept versions.

Powermaster Prime's animation model as used in the commercials and as a character guide for the Marvel comics is a composite of the second and third designs. The body of the model is actually a straight tracing of the concept lineart for the third version (including its different rifles and twin faux shoulder stacks), with a slightly simplified drawing of the second version's head drawn on top.

===Miscellaneous Primes===
[[File:Early Star Convoy Planning Stage.jpg‎|thumb|upright=1.1|I am the prototype of the toy of the future!]]
*''Return of Convoy'' catalogues reveal the planning process behind Star Convoy's evolution from gimmick-rich illustration to prototype before reaching final production.
[[File:PMHeroTrace.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.1|Stealing purses across the ages.]]
*The pose used for ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' [[#HeroOptimusPrime|Hero Optimus Prime]]'s [[package art]] is rather blatantly swiped from [[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1]] [[Powermaster]] [[#PMOP|Optimus Prime]]'s package art.
*On a similar note, ''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' [[#Machine Wars|Optimus Prime]]'s package art is merely edited from ''Generation 2'' [[#LaserOptimusPrime|Laser Optimus Prime]]'s card art, keeping it mostly intact save for the removal of shoulder kibble and the addition of a non-windowed chestplate.
[[File:Optimus prime nokia 6820.JPG|left|thumb|125px|Wait...I'm sure this is from Finland. But why did [[Seymour Simmons|Simmons]] say...]]
*The Masterpiece Optimus Prime toy was featured in a print ad for [[Nokia]] {{w|Nokia 68xx series#Nokia 6820|6820}} phones in December 2004.<ref name="nokia">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/20th-anniversary-optimus-prime-featured-in-nokia-a/4374/ "20th Anniversary Optimus Prime Featured in Nokia Ad"]</ref> He is posed bent over to look at the phone and scratching his head. Pleasantly, ''most'' of the pose pictured is perfectly possible with an un-[[Customizing|kitbash]]ed, un-Photoshopped version of the toy. (The real toy can't bend forward at the waist like that, alas.)
*''[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]'' [[#Classics (2006)|Optimus Prime]] was initially intended to be Deluxe-sized. An alleged list of the tentative ''Classics'' line-up<ref name="classicslineup">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/classics-11/possible-transformers-classic-line-up-4336/ Rumor] about the ''Classics'' lineup that turned out to be spot on aside from Voyager [[Soundwave (G1)/toys|Soundwave]] and Deluxe Optimus Prime.</ref> included a Deluxe-sized Optimus Prime without a trailer and a version ''with'' a trailer at the Voyager [[size class|price point]]; however, it appears the decision was eventually made to upscale Optimus to Voyager size instead.<ref name="sage">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/classics-11/cybertron-crosswise-redeco-and-transformers-classics-info-4683/ "Cybertron Crosswise Redeco and Transformers Classics Info"] (via [[Joe Kyde]]'s proxy "SAGE2764")</ref> Don Figueroa's [[control drawing]]s for the Deluxe version were leaked before the ''Classics'' line was even released at retail.<ref name="primecontrol">Leaked ''Classics'' Deluxe Optimus Prime control drawings: [http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/classics-11/transformers-classics-optimus-prime-design-sketch-4691/ Vehicle mode], [http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/classics-11/transformers-classics-optimus-prime-robot-mode-design-sketches-4692/ robot mode]</ref> A gray model [[prototype]] was later shown as part of an interview with [[TakaraTomy]]'s staff in ''[[Transformers Generations 2009 Volume 1|Transformers Generations 2009 vol. 1]]''.<ref name="ttinterview">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/general-articles-25/translated-version-of-the-takara-tomy-transformers-henkei--classics-staff-interview-167073/ Translated TakaraTomy Henkei/Classics staff interview]</ref> It's unclear whether the trailer ever made it past the early planning stage before the size of the figure was changed.

Customizing

2023-04-22T02:44:35Z

Shoutsuo: replaced the radicons link to the link that radicons resides in tfw2005 nowadays

{{picsneeded|An official prototype w/kitbashed parts, also Jizaitoys Cyclonus/Wheelie or similar.}}

[[File:Cybertrontoy-Quickslinger.jpg|upright=2.5|thumb|[[Quickslinger (Cybertron)|Quickslinger]] doesn't have an official toy, but with a Ransack toy and some lavender paint, you can have your own!]]
'''Customizing''' is the process of modifying an existing toy to obtain something that can't be bought, to improve something that can, or simply to engage in a refreshing exercise of creativity. Customizing is also frequently used in the toy industry by designers to develop "proof of concept" models to showcase an idea. The term '''kitbashing''', derived from customizers of model kits, is sometimes used.

Customizing may be as simple as repainting a small detail. It may also be quite extensive, resulting in a product that in no way resembles any of its original sources. The derived parts are frequently augmented by [[Scratchbuilding|scratchbuilt]] ones, and any part from any source, whether it is a Lego brick, a plastic tank tread, or a Barbie doll head, can be part of a customized figure.

Customizing may also be done to create a toy representation of a character without a toy, for example ''Generations'' [[Metroplex (G1)|Metroplex]] into [[Metrotitan (G1)|Metrotitan]].

As the Transformers brand expands, the customs market is becoming increasingly profitable for non-official companies. Searching for "Custom Transformers" on [[eBay]] will produce a variety of fan-created items, some of which have sold for thousands of dollars. [http://reprolabels.com/ Reprolabels] have been around for many years, starting off by selling replica G1 sticker sets. As advanced casting and mold-making technology becomes more readily available, as well as 3D printing services like Shapeways, a number of fans have turned to mass-producing their creations. These range from model kits of the [[Quintesson]]s to fully transformable model kits of [[Wheelie (G1)|Wheelie]] and [[Cyclonus (G1)/toys|Cyclonus]] and "upgrade" kits to add extra parts to ''[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]'' [[Cliffjumper (G1)/toys|Cliffjumper]] and [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys|Ultra Magnus]]. As these are not officially licensed Hasbro/Takara product, they are generally beyond the purview of this Wiki, so we'll just leave it at "Yes, we know they exist and yes, they're neat."

==Customizing in official capacities==
Customizing is actually used in official capacities.

===Mock-ups===
At times, Hasbro's design teams resort to customizing to show new possible concepts to their bosses. Of note, some planned ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' redecos of the [[Seeker (body-type)|Seeker]] and [[Sideswipe (G1)/toys#Notes|Sideswipe]] molds were found as hand-painted mock-ups and put up for sale on eBay. Also, at [[BotCon 2007]], the "Not Gonna Happen" display featured mock-ups of a planned "military vehicles" line, which were actually military vehicle toys or models modified onto various ''Transformers'' parts.<ref name="hasbrotour1">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-images/events/Botcon-2007/Hasbro-Tour/Buzzbeak-Botcon-0021.jpg.html BotCon 2007 Hasbro Tour] at TFW2005</ref><ref name="hasbrotour2">[http://www.seibertron.com/events/gallery.php?event_id=70&size=0&start=0 BotCon 2007 Hasbro Tour] at Seibertron</ref>

===Customizing class===

Starting with [[BotCon 2006]], [[Fun Publications]] offered a customizing class to attendees that allowed them to assemble and paint their own exclusives. This event proved to be very popular, selling out within hours of being announced every year.

Shoutsuo: /* Splitting by year */

==New category==
I am creating a new category called Category:Generation Studio Series toy images. If you have any objections, please state why. Cheers. [[User:Notirishman|--westjames/notirishman]] ([[User talk:Notirishman|talk]]) 11:31, 7 April 2018 (EDT)
:The category is created, as no one objected, in these 3 days. When uploading images, please use the category stated above. [[User:Notirishman|--westjames/notirishman]] ([[User talk:Notirishman|talk]]) 18:12, 9 April 2018 (EDT)

==Drift leaked==
Drift was revealed, and other leaked figures too. For the drift one, it's legit because it has an image, but the others, hightower and Cogman were leaked with no images. Should we add them? [[User:Memeuser17|Memeuser17]] ([[User talk:Memeuser17|talk]]) 13:33, 19 October 2018 (EDT)
:Definitely don’t add anything from unofficial leaks -[[User:Foffy the Sheep|Foffy]] ([[User talk:Foffy the Sheep|talk]]) 13:44, 19 October 2018 (EDT)

== Multipacks ==

Both are "exclusives" one way or another. The Bumblebee 2-pack is more straightforward; it's offically a Traget exclusive in the US (and a Kmart exclusive in Australia), while the Bumblebee/Charlie set is a canceled Toys"R"Us exclusive (for obvious reasons, though it ''is'' still a TRU exclusive in Canada) that's now some sort of "shared online exclusive" (even though one shipment somehow made it to a single Target store despite the set not even being in Target's system). Anybody got an idea how to handle this?

On top of that, those alleged "Entertainment Earth exclusives" are also available from competitors Big Bad Toy Store, TFScource, Toywiz and even friggin' Diamond Comic Distributors.--[[User:Nevermore|Nevermore]] ([[User talk:Nevermore|talk]]) 14:57, 25 November 2018 (EST)

There’s a bumblebee voyager Optimus on the way, Should we add it? {{unsigned|YourBestPal}}

I know that usually, we wait for official reveals since blurry photos of leaks aren't super reliable. But Kup, Scourge, and Hot Rod have been REVIEWED on YouTube. Is this a special case?

== SS Toy bios considered canon with the films? ==

I'm not 100% sure on where this question/discussion could be made. I had a question on whether the ''Studio Series'' toy bios can be considered canon with the films? I know it seems farfetched and a bit of a dumb question to ask. But Skipjack's toy bio suggests that Hasbro has possibly retconned him as Devastator's left leg instead of Rampage as Rampage's toy bio makes no idication that he is a component of Devastator. Further, Skipjack was released in the gift set. I've tried to see if there is any confirmation from Hasbro anywhere if this is an official retcon - I haven't found anything anywhere - but a lot of fans have taken to the idea that the Skipjack toy is a retcon.

Now the next one is a huge stretch, but does the inclusion of Steeljaw with Leadfoot mean that he is officially in-universe with the films despite never showing up in the film. He's not included in the bio, but his inclusion with the Leadfoot toy kinda suggests it since all the other pack-in non-transformable figurines are characters from the films (Brains, Wheelie, Laserbeak, Mini Dinobots and Igor). If that is also the case, does that mean that Thundercracker has technically been retconned into DOTM despite never appearing in the film too?

I don't know, I wanna know what you guys think and if any of these changes should be made anywhere else? [[User:Fanofcoolstuff27|Fanofcoolstuff27]] ([[User talk:Fanofcoolstuff27|talk]]) 21:25, 26 October 2020 (EDT)
:'''EDIT:''' I Found this article on Hasbro Pulse [https://hasbropulse.com/blogs/unboxed/behindthedesign-transformers-devastator] - "In the movie, Skipjack and Rampage both have the same build or form but are colored differently, Skipjack being yellow and Rampage being orange." Does this statement confirm that Skipjack is actually the yellow bulldozer that forms Devastator's leg? It was stated by a Hasbro employee so can we make it official on the wiki? [[User:Fanofcoolstuff27|Fanofcoolstuff27]] ([[User talk:Fanofcoolstuff27|talk]]) 21:41, 26 October 2020 (EDT)

::In Thundercracker's case, his article already includes his Studio Series bio under the "Toy Bios" section and that's the best we can do about it. We can't go ahead and declare that he ''is'' in the movie when he pretty clearly ''isn't''. The Studio Series line also includes toys like [[Dairu]] and [[Uruaz]] and I don't think anybody will try to argue that they appeared anywhere in the movies. Now, about Skipjack, I do agree that it's possibly a retcon, but I'm not sure what the wiki should do either. Maybe the "Who is Skipjack?" section you added to his article is the best we can do until something more official comes along.--[[User:Fritz|Fritz]] ([[User talk:Fritz|talk]]) 03:12, 27 October 2020 (EDT)
:::I had a feeling that Thundercracker and Steeljaw's relevance on this topic would be a bit of a stretch as I stated before. But I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels this way on the whole Skipjack VS Rampage topic. I've spent just about my entire day trying to find information on it to make it more worth the discussion lol. I just wanted to run it past everyone else and put it out there as I'm not sure on what can be considered a retcon and who can be considered relevant enough as a reliable source to retcon something into official fiction. {{unsigned|Fanofcoolstuff27}}

No, the bios are not canon with the films. They're indicative of what Hasbro interprets on the film, and certainly they influence how we categorize certain characters. [[User:Escargon|Escargon]] ([[User talk:Escargon|talk]]) 09:22, 27 October 2020 (EDT)

== SS74 ==

So, ROTF BB waas revealed today, and he's #74 and part of Buzzworthy Bumblebee. What size class is he though? --[[User:ZacAttack|ZacAttack]] ([[User talk:ZacAttack|talk]]) 20:37, 17 December 2020 (EST)

== DOTM Soundwave ==

Do we know if DOTM Soundwave from the wave 8 Deluxes was repacked in the wave 9 case? The reason I ask is because the entirety of wave 8 was skipped here in New Zealand (not uncommon, since wave 5 Deluxes and Voyagers, wave 12 Voyagers and wave 3 Leaders were also among those skipped), yet, I managed to snag Soundwave alongside the wave 9 Deluxes back in 2020. I know we don't list repacks in this article, but we sometimes do in the individual articles. I just wondered if anyone may know for sure whether that was the case or not? I also noticed that ROTF Scavenger was missing from the wave 4 Leaders whenever DOTM Shockwave came out here in 2020, but then he miraculously appeared in mid-2021 when ROTF Overload appeared on store shelves.

If anyone knows if these are repack cases, let me know, because I just thought it might be useful information for someone who cares. -- [[User:Fanofcoolstuff27|Fanofcoolstuff27]] ([[User talk:Fanofcoolstuff27|talk]]) 23:45, 22 January 2022 (EST)

==Terrorcon Faction symbols==

I noticed right where it lists the names of the Terrorcons, they have Decepticon logos instead of Terrorcon logos; Do we plan on changing those or will we wait until the movie comes out? [[User:UTube Convoy|UTube Convoy]] ([[User talk:UTube Convoy|talk]]) 23:01, 4 February 2023 (PT)

I'm VERY new here and not entirely certain, but I think since the Maximals DO all have the correct insignia, yes, the Terrorcons should have theirs as well. I assume it was a holdover from when we didn't have a logo and Decepticon logos were used as a placeholder. (That might not be what happened. Don't know for sure.) The upshot is, yes, they probably should have correct logos. [[User:ThatGuy79|ThatGuy79]] ([[User talk:ThatGuy79|talk]]) 11:18, 9 February 2023 (EST)

May want to get a more experienced editor/admin/someone to weigh in, though. [[User:ThatGuy79|ThatGuy79]] ([[User talk:ThatGuy79|talk]]) 12:26, 9 February 2023 (EST)
:So funny story we actually got the new bullet point graphic hooked up while y'all were talking about it. The Decepticon logos were indeed placeholders. --[[User:AzimuthAcolyte|AzimuthAcolyte]] ([[User talk:AzimuthAcolyte|talk]]) 14:52, 9 February 2023 (EST)

...wow, I was right. Neat. Nice to see that matter is settled! [[User:ThatGuy79|ThatGuy79]] ([[User talk:ThatGuy79|talk]]) 18:11, 9 February 2023 (EST)

==Splitting by year==

I believe that after 5 years and many waves, Studio Series warrants having its toy listings separated by year, the same way we treat the 1984 toyline and Beast Wars.
The introduction of core class in the last year already throws the chronological order of releases out of wack. Not to mention having these toys all lumped together with no filtering makes it harder for users to know when they came out at first glance. [[User:MrRald|MrRald]] ([[User talk:MrRald|talk]]) 16:49, 15 April 2023 (EDT)

:Good idea. It was bound to get confusing after awhile, so I'm in favor of this. [[User:ThatGuy79|ThatGuy79]] ([[User talk:ThatGuy79|talk]]) 07:32, 17 April 2023 (EDT)
::I second that! --[[User:Poliwag06|Poliwag06]] ([[User talk:Poliwag06|talk]]) 07:41, 17 April 2023 (EDT)
:::I agree it's time we start listing the toys by year. This way readers will have a better grasp on the release history of the line. -- [[User:Fritz|Fritz]] ([[User talk:Fritz|talk]]) 08:21, 17 April 2023 (EDT)
::::Also in favor. --[[User:AzimuthAcolyte|AzimuthAcolyte]] ([[User talk:AzimuthAcolyte|talk]]) 13:07, 17 April 2023 (EDT)
:::::Yes, please! --[[User:Sabrblade|Sabrblade]] ([[User talk:Sabrblade|talk]]) 15:28, 17 April 2023 (EDT)
::::::Aye [[User:McBaggins|McBaggins]] ([[User talk:McBaggins|talk]]) 23:17, 19 April 2023 (EDT)
:::::::I think that would be a great idea. Since with studio series lasting this long it would be good to know which figures came out when in a proper and concise manner especially when a whole entire size class got introduced in the line a year or 2 ago -- [[User:Shoutsuo|Shoutsuo]] ([[User talk:Shoutsuo|talk]]) 23:32, 19 April 2023 (EDT)

'''''Transformers: Earth Wars''''' is a mobile game by [[Space Ape Games]]/[[Backflip Studios]] with a storyline written by [[Simon Furman]], which means plenty of [[Furmanism]]s. The aim of the game is to assemble an army and build a fortress, then try to defend your base while destroying the enemy's. Essentially, Transformers meets ''Clash of Clans'', without Hog Riders.

The setting is [[The Transformers (franchise)|Generation 1]], though characters from the [[Beast Era]], [[Unicron Trilogy]], [[Transformers: Shattered Glass (franchise)|Shattered Glass]], [[G.I. Joe (franchise)|G.I. Joe]] and [[Aligned continuity family|Prime]] also appear.

==Plot==
The Autobots and Decepticons return to Earth to battle over resources. Furman promises that while it "appears to be about the same old stuff" initially, "as we progress through the game, more is revealed about Megatron’s master plan and what he’s looking for on Earth."<ref>[https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/gaming/2016/02/10/transformers-land-mobile-earth-wars/80167164/ USA Today: "'Transformers' land on mobile in 'Earth Wars'"]</ref>

===Campaigns===
*'''Get Optimus / Get Megatron!'''
Jetfire and Starscream arrive on Earth and set up their base of operations. Soon, Ironhide and Bludgeon arrive through their Space Bridges, and after raiding a few bases, both factions find a [[Quantum Crystal]] powerful enough to power their spacebridges and bring their leaders to Earth.
*'''The Lost Map'''
With the arrival of Optimus Prime and Megatron, the Autobots and/or Decepticons set out to find the [[Fractal Map]] pieces with the help of their human allies. Both sides find a Gunner Crystal and recruit Sunstreaker and Swindle.
*'''Power Play'''
After collecting three of the map pieces, both factions try putting the pieces they collected together, only to find out they need a [[Codex Key]] to break the encryption.
*'''The Codex Showdown'''
With the help of the recently recruited medics, Ratchet and Hook, both sides fight over the Codex Key, and find the location of a [[Enigma of Combination|legendary artifact]].
*'''Secrets of Nebulos'''
Some weird pieces of [[Nebulos]] technology called '''"Power Cores"''' have landed on Earth. Starscream and Optimus gather some troops, and both Starscream and Optimus Prime fight over the Power Cores. The power cores gathered, however, have been rigged to explode, and so both sides have to start from scratch with building up their power core stocks.
*'''Combiner Wars'''
With the Enigma of Combination, the Autobots and Decepticons harness the power of Combiners. The gestalts prove unstable, however, and require Ore-13 and high-ranking bots to be useful.
*'''Return to Cybertron'''
A power play involving Starscream, Straxus, and Rodimus Unicronus results in the Autobots and Decepticons teaming up to assault Cybertron-based fortresses with overpowered defenses.
*'''War For Cybertron'''
Flashbacks introduce the Omega Supreme and Overlord combiners, along with the War for Cybertron cosmetic skin cores.
*'''Regenesis'''
Autobots and Decepticons team up once more to retreive the mysterious Project: Regenesis
*'''Titans on Earth'''
The Titans Metroplex & Trypticon are summoned to Earth to help their allies

==Gameplay==
===Alliances===
Alliances are the primary way to gain access to bots firsthand via events. Your alliance can also compete in Alliance Wars to determine who is better, and to see who comes up top! Compete in Alliance wars to gain resources, league promotions, and bragging rights!

You can join with other players in an alliance, or you can create your own for 15,000 Alloy! There are many notable alliances within the community!

A player must have Level 4 Headquarters or higher to join an Alliance, and up to 40 people can be in an Alliance.

===Classes===
*'''Warriors''' are armored front line melee fighters that rush into enemy defenses to open up the attack and protect other bots, but they have the lowest Damage per second (DPS). Warriors generally have a speed of 1.7, but some are slightly faster.
*'''Aerial''' units deal the highest DPS at a short range and can perform powerful airstrikes on single targets from great distances, but have low health. All air units have a speed of 2.
*'''Gunners''' shoot over walls and bombard large areas with their abilities from long range. like the Air units, they're deadly but vulnerable. All gunners have a speed of 1.8.
*'''Medics''' heal and support other bots in battle. They are only a few medics in the game, and they aren't durable themselves, so keep them in the back. Medics have a speed of 2.6.
*'''Special''' bots are highly individualized fighters with unique capabilities. This class incorporates leaders, scouts, and deployers.
*'''Triple Changers''' come with two special abilities making them highly versatile in battle. Triple Changers have speeds from 2.1 to 2.4.
*'''Combiners''' are a special class that must be summoned individually. They deal massive amounts of damage, but can only stay on the battlefield for so long. Their three abilities do not use ability points, but have cooldown times.

===Power Cores===
Power Cores are pieces of Nebulan Technology that are used to enhance bots and buildings, that can be obtained from ‘’’Power Chips’’’ or from Bot duplicates. Unused cores can be "fused" to active ones, increasing the effectiveness of the latter, but annihilating the former.

Building Cores

*Universal Building Cores:

*G1 Cores:
A successor to the Bot Specific Cores are the G1 cores. Again, these can be equipped to specific bots, and modify the visual appearance of the bots. But in the case of the G1 cores, the visual modification takes the form of a thicker black outline around the edges of each bot, approximating the appearance of the classic animated series.

*Prime Cores:
12 unique cores (each corresponding to one of the ancient [[Thirteen|Primes]]) that provide particularly potent abilities, and in some cases alter the physical appearance of each bot. Prime cores are not obtainable from bot duplicates or standard core chips, and can be obtained only through the collection of 5,000 Prime Core shards (typically special rewards from weekend events).

*Limited Time Cores:
Temporary cores that provide an XP boost for a specific period after being equipped. One the period is completed, they are automatically destroyed.

*Squad cores:
Faction- and class-specific cores that confer two buffs - one to the bot on whom it is equipped, and another on any bots of the same class in the same squad.

*Skin Cores:
Cores that will give your bots a different appearance

*'''[[Autogun|Auto Cannon]]''' - Provides a decent amount of damage and has medium range. Cannot target flying units.
*'''Laser Turret''' - Shoots off 4 smaller lasers that deal constant damage at shorter range, but deals double damage to flying units!
*'''Mortar''' - Long range defense that targets ground units and deals explosive damage from far away.
*'''Outpost''' - Assign an Autobot or Decepticon with a fraction of their normal stats to defend against attacks on your base.
*'''Beam Laser''' - Shoots off a long range Photon laser to deal the Highest DPS on a single ground unit.

*'''Combiner Lab''' - Used to activate Combiners and upgrade their abilities using combiner Spark.
*'''Build Bot''' - Build Bots will build and upgrade buildings, but the bots themselves cannot be upgraded and have very low health. The number of buildings that can be upgraded at a time depends on the number of Build Bots on base. More Build Bots can be bought at 2000 [[Cybercoin]]s or 5000 [[Shanix]] each. Until a later update, the build bots can now be upgraded & can be equipped with a power core

'''<nowiki>*</nowiki>''' Upcoming characters

==Events==
Every weekend, for three days, events are held so players can win resources and new crystals. The events usually alternate between solo events and Alliance events each week. New characters are introduced with a story strewn across a four-week saga.

The various type of events are:
* A solo totaliser with various resource prizes, capped at 10,000 points.
* An Alliance single totaliser with a grand prize at around 200,000 points.
* An Alliance event with many prestiges to collect prizes and crystals multiple times.
* A single totaliser with multiple prestiges, which gives the same amount of battle points in all battle zones and triple XP.
* An Alliance totaliser and leaderboard event, with the top alliances receiving the newest 4 or 3 star character crystal and Premium Crystals. Or in some events, even more of the event's crystals.

{{main|Transformers: Earth Wars/Events}}

==Notes==
*Furman has said that early in production, "we had to base it in the IDW continuity as it turned out". He also revealed it was him who pushed for Bludgeon to make it into the game as well.<ref>[https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/comic-writer-simon-furman-discusses-three-decades-of-transformers-and-new-game-earth-wars-707 Vice interview]</ref>
** A purple [[Decepticon Command Bunker]] can be seen in the mountainside of Decepticon bases as a counterpart to the Ark in Autobot bases.
*Character models are mostly based on each character's most-recent toy release. In many cases, this means ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'', ''[[Titans Return (toyline)|Titans Return]]'', ''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'',''[[War for Cybertron: Siege]]'', ''[[War for Cybertron: Earthrise]]'' and ''[[Transformers: Legacy|Legacy]]''. There are also some appearances from ''[[Thrilling 30]]'', ''[[Transformers Legends (franchise)|Legends]]'', ''[[Unite Warriors]]'', ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'', [[Live-action film series|movie]]verse namesakes, 'original' ''[[Beast Wars (toyline)]]'' and 'original' [[The Transformers (franchise)|Generation 1]], and a bit of ''[[Masterpiece]]'' in the mix.
* Though the game's dialogue is depicted using text boxes, Optimus Prime, Megatron, and Soundwave still have voice lines. They are voiced, as usual, by [[Peter Cullen]] and [[Frank Welker]], respectively.
*Apparently, the Mastermind Creations toys of the Predacons inspired the staff so much, that the in-game models of the Predacons are based on these [[IP theft|third party]] toys.
**The Predacons aren't the only ones guilty of this either! Motormaster had his in-game model based on TransForm Mission's toy based on the Stunticon leader!
**Did we also mention that Menasor's model takes cues off of the "Perfect Effect" third party add on kit, along with the aforementioned Transform Mission toy.
**On the bot side, Defensor is an interesting case, as rather than reuse the limb-mode rigs of Vortex, Ironhide and Brakeneck, Blades, First Aid and Streetwise use brand new frames for their limb modes. Don't even mention that Rook is combined upside down. The head, thighs and parts of the shoulders are the only bits of Hot Spot with any resemblane to the ''Combiner Wars'' toy, as everything else is based on the C+ Customs add-on kit for Defensor instead of retooling from Victorion (though the backpack kibble is shrunken down).
**Abominus: Torso: ''Power of the Primes''/''Unique Toys''. Legs: ''Power of the Primes''. Arms: ''Power of the Primes''/''Unique Toys''. Thighs: ''Unique Toys''. Head: ''Unique Toys''. Hands and feet: ''Unique Toys''. Gun: ''Unique Toys'' (shared with Defensor). Whew!
* The only Furmanisms actually in the game are "It is over - finished!" (said by Optimus or Megatron after a victory) and "Now - Reap the whirlwind!" (spoken by Optimus Prime when deploying troops).
* [[FIRRIB|Rumble is blue, Frenzy is red.]]
* As it turns out, Tracks' bot mode is based on his Masterpiece toy, but his alt-mode is entirely based on his Universe toy.
*Sky-Lynx is classified as a Triple-Changer now, this also marks the first time in a while that his dual mode Tiger and Dragon modes have been used.
* While the soundtrack is normally unique music made for the game itself, by default, you also have the choice of a Generation 1 soundtrack, using original [[Johnny Douglas]] tracks from the 1984 cartoon.
* Up until Defensor's debut, Superion was the only original ''G1'' combiner for the Autobots.
* How do you know a combiner is coming? If all the bots of a known combiner group are available.
* Soundwave's H.I.S.S. tank model is the first instance of the character having a vehicle mode in the game. It draws from the [[HISS tank#G.I. Joe and the Transformers|Soundwave-themed HISS redeco]].
* Hound's VAMP model draws inspiration from his ''Universe'' toy and from the Hound-themed [[VAMP]] redeco.
* Jetfire's Skystriker model draws inspiration from the Jetfire-themed [[Skystriker]] redeco. Skywarp, however, is the nutball in the group.
* Swoop was known as Strafe before the Technobot of the same name was added to the game.
* Making for a nice easter egg, transforming Blaster in the character viewer will result in him playing [[The Touch]]. This also applies to Soundwave.
* One of, if not both of the Autobot Drift's swords translates into "revenge". Strangely enough, the symbols are in the ''Decepticon'' variant, and not Autobot.
===Errors===
* You can count on pretty much any character with tall shoulders to have said shoulders clip and cut through the character model when in battle stance.
* Drift does an awkward shift when going from vehicle to robot and the opposite way, seeing as his body warps and shifts so that he faces sideways in bot mode. This happens every time he attacks and every time he changes form.
* Most characters with extended shooting animations will sometimes lag out and be out of sync with the shooting animation.
* If activating an Aerialbot's ability, he may circle the target pointlessly for a while. Sometimes he even goes underground.
* Rampage and Razorclaw can have a victory animation while in bot mode and charging when the battle ends. They even have their swords.
*Sunstreaker has a giant gap in the back of his combined form leg.
*Sometimes Blast Off has his combination process [[Animation error|distorted]].
*''Beast Wars'' Megatron's weapons sometimes don't properly align with the hand models.
*Sharkticons just don't know when to stop fighting. The animations for the fighting will still appear, and they still run to buildings, but they don't actually deal damage. Does not translate to Gnaw.
*Sometimes (although this is very rare), amalgamations will randomly appear, where parts of the robot mode and vehicle mode appear on the opposite modes. Examples include Blast Off becoming a [[Seeker (body-type)|Conehead]], Ironhide gaining his [[Ironhide (Movie)|movieverse]] look, and Optimus Prime having [[Kibble#"Faux-parts"|two truck cabs]].
*Characters collision hitboxes will sometimes get caught on each other or on wall hitboxes and they will stay stuck in place for a good while. The bug where they get stuck on the Wall hitboxes can be fixed by letting the character walk in place, and let them get uncaught or destroy the wall. The bug where they get stuck in the collision hitboxes of each other can be fixed by activating the bot's ability. This most commonly happens with Medics and Gunners, and especially if you deploy your units in an extremely short fashion.
*Sometimes, when viewing your bots, after the bot transforms into their alternate mode, they won't transform into their robot mode, and remain [[Transformation paralysis|stuck in alternate mode.]] This is fixed by restarting the game.
*There are so many issues with the hands, especially characters with aerial capabilities or alt modes, especially the helicopters. When they transform, more often then not, their hands slide into their arms and then randomly reappear in alt mode. This usually applies to jets, but Laser (G2) Optimus Prime has his hands visible in vehicle mode.
*Brainstorm's character model duplicates his shield kibble on his arm and on his back and his arm cannon just disappears when he transforms.
*After the update that gave Blaster and Soundwave altmodes,this came at a price. Both of their character models in robot mode have extremely distorted upper arms that just levitate next to their lower arms.
*The Breastforce cannot activate their Breast Partner in the traditional way (gun, handgun, and animal) with Guyhawk being the exception. Either they are used as decoration, or don't appear at all.
*Mixmaster, when equipped with his G1 Core, will sometimes adopt a Transmetal texture in bot form. In ''Alternate Form'', however, he'll switch back to the regular G1 look. It is unknown if this applies to other bots, and if the G1 core matters. (Further research needed)
*As of the most recent update, Overlord and Omega Supreme are sometimes static while deployed, lacking their animations though they'll return occasionally. This has since been fixed.
**Other gimmicks that certain Transformers or Special Teams may have usually don't make it into the game.
*Most bugs that affect gameplay are promptly resolved within a given time, and Patch notes detailing what is currently being fixed are always released to the public.

Transformers: Generation 2 (franchise)

2023-03-15T14:59:37Z

Shoutsuo: G2 Started in 1992 not 1993

{{nav-G2}}

'''''Transformers: Generation 2''''' was the first of many rebirths for the [[Transformers brand]]. Although the original ''Transformers'' franchise had never stopped producing toys in Europe, the North American line had completely disappeared for nearly two years. The European sales were good enough to convince [[Hasbro]] to give it another go<ref>[http://www.tfarchive.com/fandom/interviews/george_dunsay/george_dunsay_interview.php George Dunsay interview at TFArchive]: "At the time it was discontinued in the US, it was not a temporary decision. It is only after the success in Europe that the US people decided to reintroduce it"</ref> and so ''Generation 2'' launched in [[1992]].

The ''Generation 2'' [[franchise]] featured the following primary components:

* [[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|A toyline]]
* [[Transformers: Generation 2 (cartoon)|A cartoon series]]
* [[Transformers: Generation 2 (Marvel)|A US comic book series]]
* [[Transformers: Generation 2 (Fleetway)|A short-lived UK comic]]
* One [[The Official Transformers: Generation 2 Annual|UK Annual]].
* Some [[Honey Bear Books|coloring books]]

Although the ''Generation 2'' cartoon was merely a set of repackaged [[The Transformers (cartoon)|Generation 1 cartoon]] episodes (featuring the flashy, computer-animated [[Cybernet Space Cube]]), the ''Generation 2'' comic book was a direct continuation of the story from the [[List of Generation 1 comics|G1 comic]] which had ended at issue 80.

''Generation 2''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s toy [[commercial]]s are noted for an early use of CGI animation (including depictions of some characters who had very few fictional appearances anywhere else.) A subset of the commercials is also noted for ''hilariously'' bad rap music.

''Generation 2'' ended in [[1995]] due to lagging sales. Rather than put the franchise to rest, [[Hasbro]] shuffled its boys-toy lines over to the recently-acquired [[Kenner]] offices, and gave them the task of re-inventing ''Transformers'' with something fresh and new... ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Wars]]''.

In [[2010]] the Generation 2 line was re-imagined as "[[Generation 2: Redux]]" by [[Fun Publications]] for that year's [[BotCon]].

==''Transformers: G-2''==
{{anchor|Japan}}
{{nav-JG2}}

Having disappeared in Japan in 1993, the ''Transformers'' toy line returned to Japan in 1995 with the Japanese version of ''Generation 2'', formally referred to as '''''Transformers: G-2''''' (トランスフォーマー G-2). Unlike the English ''Generation 2'' version, the Japanese ''G-2'' storyline followed the animated continuity rather than the comic book continuity, being told through a combination of:

* [[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)#Takara G-2 line|A toyline]]
* [[Transformers: G-2 (story page)|A series of story pages]].
* [[Transformers: G-2 (pack-in manga)|A manga series]] packaged with the instruction manuals.
* A manga special, "[[The New Battle!!]]", published in [[Comic Bom Bom]].

Like its Western market counterpart, ''G-2'' also ended in 1995. Afterward, [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] continued to release their other main transforming robot toy line, the ''[[Brave (franchise)|Brave Series]]'', until getting back into ''Transformers'' with the new Japanese ''[[Beast Wars: Super Lifeform Transformers|Beast Wars]]'' toy line in [[1997]].

Ratchet (SG)

2023-03-11T06:04:44Z

Shoutsuo: /* Notes */

{{factions|sgAutobot|unicron|hofsilver}}
{{disambig3.5|the evil Autobot "medic"|his heroic Autobot medic counterpart|Ratchet (G1)|Ratchet}}
:''Ratchet is an evil [[Autobot]] "medic" from the [[Transformers: Shattered Glass (franchise)|Shattered Glass]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:Ratchetsgd&d.jpg|right|300px|thumb|It brings on many changes, and you can take or leave it if you please.]]
To say '''Ratchet''' is the [[Autobot]]s' medic would be a falsehood. Ratchet ''is'' where [[Optimus Prime (SG)|Optimus Prime]] sends the wounded from battle, but not for ''repairs''. No, they are sent there for ''punishment''. Any Autobot ordered there has to be dragged kicking and screaming.

It's not that Ratchet wants to terrorize his patients. In fact, he honestly believes that he's doing them a great favor! Who wouldn't want some rusty old equipment replacing their head? That would look so cool! And he really doesn't understand why they get so upset after seeing the result of his loving care. But Ratchet shrugs off their cries of protest and confusion. They'll come around eventually. [[Blurr (SG)|Some]] may say his morbid operations as a result of a past trauma, that his methods are an attempt to ''prove'' something, but no one can quite say for sure.

{{quote|You don’t like it? But almost everyone has two hands! Five digits? Pffff. How boring! You, now... you're interesting now!|Ratchet is hurt that [[Rodimus (SG)|Rodimus]] doesn't appreciate his work|"[[Dungeons & Dinobots]]"}}

==Fiction==
===Fun Publications ''Shattered Glass'' continuity===
[[Mirage (SG)|Mirage]], a down-and-out bank robber volunteered for one of Ratchet's "upgrades" so he could gain permanent partial transparency. That was likely the last time anyone paid attention to Mirage. {{storylink|Around Cybertron issue 7|Around Cybertron #7}}

After a harrowing Dinobot Hunt, [[Rodimus (SG)|Rodimus]] woke up on Ratchet's operating table, having lost a hand in a battle with [[Grimlock (SG)|Grimlock]] and the [[Decepticon]]s. Rodimus, in a panic, immediately tried to leave, and objected to Ratchet's offer to add a second vocoder. It was then that Rodimus noticed that his hand had been not repaired, but replaced with a jagged [[saw]]blade. Ratchet was momentarily saddened by Rodimus's dissatisfaction with his "upgrade," but his grin of psychotic amusement returned quickly enough.

[[Blurr (SG)|Blurr]] was morbidly fascinated with speculating on what was likely to happen to [[Wheeljack (SG)|Wheeljack]] after Prime ordered that Ratchet should oversee Wheeljack's [[Earth]]-mode refit. {{storylink|Dungeons & Dinobots}}

Ratchet was one of the many Autobots who supported Rodimus when he stole the ''[[Ark (SG)|Ark]]'' and set out for Earth. While on Earth, the Autobots found themselves beset by [[Blitzwing (SG)|Blitzwing]]'s new uncontrollable broadcasting powers overwhelming their emergency channel, Rodimus looked to Ratchet for a solution. The miserable medic perked right up at his abilities being needed, and said all it would take was a micro-laser. When he came up with a sonic jackhammer instead, and, when that was pointed out to him, asked if anyone really needed their personalities, Rodimus dropped the idea. Ratchet was too busy being enthralled by "{{w|Repo! The Genetic Opera|Zydrate Anatomy}}" to care overmuch. {{storylink|Blitzwing Bop}}

[[Image:DigitaldoomonthehighwaytodestructionSG.jpg|left|thumb|250px|In the negative universe, the Purple Cross is not a heavily enforced trademark.]]

Ratchet helped Wheeljack set up a work area when the Autobots captured [[Sephie Beller]], who had augmented herself with Cybertronian tech. As Wheeljack prepared for a vivisection, Ratchet handed him medical tools. The operation was suspended by the arrival of the Decepticons, whom the Autobots were able to take captive. Ratchet and [[Brawn (SG)|Brawn]] were soon kept busy restraining [[Swoop (SG)|Swoop]] from attacking the prisoners. The arrival of [[R.J. Blackrock]] in a [[Centurion (SG)|giant mech]] delayed any executions. During the ensuing fight, Ratchet knocked Sephie out of the air with his crane boom, and she blindly retaliated by blasting him in the head, causing bits of his helmet to go flying. On seeing their medic was wounded, the Autobots retreated back to the ''Ark''. {{storylink|Transhuman}}

While working on his Transhuman subjects, [[Side Burn (SG)|Side Burn]] cautioned them that they didn't want Ratchet working on their upgrades. The Autobot medic had a habit of getting...experimental with his patients. {{storylink|Coalescence}}

After the mass arrival of [[Primax 207.0 Epsilon|positive-universe]] Transformers, Ratchet enacted a plan to cheat his own mortality and stole [[Crystalline Containment]] technology from the new heroic Autobots, using it to store a copy of his brain, to be activated in a new body in the event of his deactivation. {{storylink|Ratchet (SG)#Timelines|Customization class SG Ratchet bio}}

[[File:RatchetSG-whenshatteredworldscollide.jpg|right|thumb|200px|You... probably don't want to fight Marvel Ratchet, ''SG'' Ratchet, that rarely ends up well for anyone. Including Marvel Ratchet.]]

Following the Autobots' particularly bad defeat at [[Decepticon City (SG)|Decepticon City]] on [[Earth]] at the hands of the [[Decepticon]]s, Ratchet was among the Autobots who left for [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] aboard [[Sky Lynx (SG)|Sky Lynx]]. {{storylink|Restoration}} When their ride announced they would have to lighten their load, Ratchet, being among the most badly wounded of the Autobots, was dumped out of the airlock along with Optimus Prime, Brawn, [[Prowl (SG)|Prowl]], and [[Inferno (SG)|Inferno]]. They subsequently found themselves in the presence of [[Unicron]], {{storylink|Familiar Reflections}} who reformatted them to serve his needs. Ratchet became one of the [[Autotrooper (SG Knights of Unicron)|Autotrooper]]s serving [[Prowl (SG)|Checkpoint]] among the [[Knights of Unicron (SG)|Knights of Unicron]]. After returning to Cybertron, he assisted Nova Prime in overthrowing Rodimus. {{storylink|Out of the One, Many}}

Ratchet's reformatting triggered the activation of his "backup", whose new body was equipped with [[combiner]] technology, but suffered from freezing and rebooting issues thanks to compatibility issues with the extradimensional Crystalline Containment technology. Ever the mad doctor, Ratchet was able to plant viruses in and seize control of the brain functions of those unfortunates he combined with. {{storylink|#Toys|Customization class SG Ratchet bio}}

====''Recordicons''====
At some unspecified point in time, Ratchet and a team of Autobots somehow under the command of both [[Rodimus (SG)|Rodimus Prime]] and [[Optimus Prime (SG)|Optimus Prime]] fought [[Thundercracker (SG)|Thundercracker]] and [[Ravage (SG)|Ravage]] in the Transformers' greatest battle on Earth, "[[Digital Doom on the Highway to Destruction (SG)|Digital Doom on the Highway to Destruction]]." According to Ravage, anyway. {{storylink|Recordicons issue 3|Recordicons #3}}

====''SD SG''====
Ratchet visited a distant point in the timeline frequently in order to help out his fellow doc-bot, [[Rhinox (BWSG)|Rhinox]], fool his teammates into thinking that he had all sorts of miracle cures up his sleeve. On one such visit, Ratchet wondered aloud how his numerous trips into the time-stream hadn't muddle the whole thing to mush already. Rhinox assured him that he had taken measures to prevent such a thing from happening. Satisfied, Ratchet dropped off a cure for [[stasis lock]] before returning to his own time, wishing Rhinox good luck in keeping his teammates in the dark about their meetings. {{storylink|SD SG issue 6|SD SG #6}}

===IDW ''Shattered Glass'' comic===
[[File:ShatteredGlass4-RatchetGoldbug.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Upgrades, people, ''upgrades!'']]

At some point during the Great War, the loss of a close friend left Ratchet traumatized. {{storylink|Shattered Glass issue 1|Shattered Glass #1}}

Ratchet took part in the final battle for [[Earth]]; after defeating the Decepticons, he and the other Autobots pillaged the planet before they returned to [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]. {{storylink|Shattered Glass issue 2|Shattered Glass #2}} On the way back to Cybertron, Ratchet was able to convince Optimus Prime to revive the critically wounded [[Goldbug (SG)|Bumblebee]], who'd taken severe damage from [[Megatron (SG)|Megatron]]'s [[fusion cannon]]. Using a spare [[protoform]], Ratchet rebuilt Bumblebee into [[Goldbug (SG)|Goldbug]], a faster, stronger, and outwardly more confident identity for the little warrior. {{storylink|Shattered Glass issue 4|Shattered Glass #4}}

At some point after the end of the war, Goldbug and [[Prowl (SG)|Prowl]] attempted to depose Optimus Prime. Although the coup failed, Ratchet nevertheless sided with Goldbug's breakaway faction, and by the present day he had relocated to Goldbug's territory. As one of Goldbug's close associates, he spent most of his time working with Autobot [[bodyscrapper]]s based in [[Gold City]]. When not interrogating the Decepticon prisoners they brought back for him, he spent most of his time experimenting on unwilling victims, using the steady supply of spare parts guaranteed by his position to try and create unbeatable Cybertronian that wouldn't have died by his side. When [[Blurr (G1)|Blurr]] brought him [[Sixshot (SG)|Sixshot]]'s corpse, Ratchet told him that Goldbug had put out a contract on [[Starscream (SG)|Starscream]], with express orders to bring him in alive. {{storylink|Shattered Glass issue 1|Shattered Glass #1}}

When [[Megatron (SG)|Megatron]] and his remaining followers launched a full-scale assault on Gold City, Ratchet took part in the battle, but paused when he overheard the sound of Starscream dying and [[Jetfire (SG)|Jetfire]] screaming in agony. {{storylink|Shattered Glass issue 5|Shattered Glass #5}}

Like all ''Combiner Wars''-style Deluxe Class toys, he can become an arm or a leg for any compatible Voyager Class torso figure.

:While the front hood/windshields are needed to be folded as kneecaps for his leg mode, the piece also sticks out automatically if he collides to Optimus Prime/Motormaster's (or and of Hot Spot's redecoes/retools) protruding foot while the legs are being swiveled in his standing position, unless the leg joints are bent down to lessen the problem.

:Class participants were given four deco options for the [[Ratchet (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Ratchet]] head ([[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|Marvel G1]], [[The Transformers (cartoon)|cartoon G1]], [[Transformers: Generation 2 (franchise)|G2]], and ''Shattered Glass'' Ratchet) and a fifth deco option for the automatically-included-in-the-sprues First Aid head as [[Medix (G1)#Toys|Medix]]. Four sticker sheets were available, but class participants were only allowed a G1 sticker sheet and one other of their choice.

:Class participants who finished creating their toy in-class were given an exclusive [[Enigma of Combination]] accessory that can be either held by Ratchet/Medix or fit into [[Ultra Prime#Toys|Ultra Prime]] or [[Optimus Maximus (G1)#Toys|Optimus Maximus]]'s chest. Unpainted/unstickered versions of Ratchet with the Ratchet head were offered for sale at the convention to regular attendees.

==Notes==
[[File:SGRatchetFlatColors.jpg|thumb|upright=1.15|Damn you, situational lighting!]]
* In the original ''Shattered Glass'' continuity, Ratchet's first body is based on ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]'' Combat Class [[Roadblock (Energon)|Roadblock]]'s, with a new head. According to [[Greg Sepelak]], the character was intended to have scrubs-green as his base color.<ref>[https://twitter.com/MSipher/status/1340431087915257856 M Sipher on Twitter]</ref> Per artist [[Evan Gauntt|Evan Gauntt's]] pre-final "flat color" version<ref>[https://twitter.com/evangauntt/status/1303498819750039553 Evan Gauntt on Twitter]</ref> of Ratchet's first appearance, Ratchet '''was''' supposed to be scrubs-green in the original image. Unfortunately, the dynamic lighting from the scene's overhead lamp caused other creators to interpret him as being white with green highlights instead of his intended scrubs-green coloration. This misinterpretation of his colors has been reflected by every depiction of the character since, including his much-later Hasbro toy release. Oops?
* His alternate mode in [[Recordicons]] is based off of [[Inferno (Energon)#Toys|Energon Inferno]]
* Ratchet's Autotrooper body is based on ''Combiner Wars'' Deluxe Class [[Offroad (CW)#Toys|Offroad]]/[[Trailbreaker (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Trailbreaker]] with a [[Hoist (G1)/toys#Notes|Hoist]]-style head.
* In ''Forged to Fight'', evil Ratchet shares a CG model with [[Ratchet (G1)#Transformers: Forged to Fight|his regular counterpart]] as a heavily stylized version of the 2008 [[Ratchet (G1)/toys#Universe (2008)|''Universe'' Deluxe Class toy]].

Ratchet visited a distant point in the timeline frequently in order to help out his fellow doc-bot, [[Rhinox (BWSG)|Rhinox]], fool his teammates into thinking that he had all sorts of miracle cures up his sleeve. On one such visit, Ratchet wondered aloud how his numerous trips into the time-stream hadn't muddle the whole thing to mush already. Rhinox assured him that he had taken measures to prevent such a thing from happening. Satisfied, Ratchet dropped off a cure for [[stasis lock]] before returning to his own time, wishing Rhinox good luck in keeping his teammates in the dark about their meetings. {{storylink|SD SG issue 6|SD SG #6}}

At some point during the Great War, the loss of a close friend left Ratchet traumatized. {{storylink|Shattered Glass issue 1|Shattered Glass #1}}

Ratchet took part in the final battle for [[Earth]]; after defeating the Decepticons, he and the other Autobots pillaged the planet before they returned to [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]. {{storylink|Shattered Glass issue 2|Shattered Glass #2}} On the way back to Cybertron, Ratchet was able to convince Optimus Prime to revive the critically wounded [[Goldbug (SG)|Bumblebee]], who'd taken severe damage from [[Megatron (SG)|Megatron]]'s [[fusion cannon]]. Using a spare [[protoform]], Ratchet rebuilt Bumblebee into [[Goldbug (SG)|Goldbug]], a faster, stronger, and outwardly more confident identity for the little warrior. {{storylink|Shattered Glass issue 4|Shattered Glass #4}}

At some point after the end of the war, Goldbug and [[Prowl (SG)|Prowl]] attempted to depose Optimus Prime. Although the coup failed, Ratchet nevertheless sided with Goldbug's breakaway faction, and by the present day he had relocated to Goldbug's territory. As one of Goldbug's close associates, he spent most of his time working with Autobot [[bodyscrapper]]s based in [[Gold City]]. When not interrogating the Decepticon prisoners they brought back for him, he spent most of his time experimenting on unwilling victims, using the steady supply of spare parts guaranteed by his position to try and create unbeatable Cybertronian that wouldn't have died by his side. When [[Blurr (G1)|Blurr]] brought him [[Sixshot (SG)|Sixshot]]'s corpse, Ratchet told him that Goldbug had put out a contract on [[Starscream (SG)|Starscream]], with express orders to bring him in alive. {{storylink|Shattered Glass issue 1|Shattered Glass #1}}

When [[Megatron (SG)|Megatron]] and his remaining followers launched a full-scale assault on Gold City, Ratchet took part in the battle, but paused when he overheard the sound of Starscream dying and [[Jetfire (SG)|Jetfire]] screaming in agony. {{storylink|Shattered Glass issue 5|Shattered Glass #5}}

**''Accessories'': Combiner hand/foot, axe

:Exclusive to [[BotCon 2016]]'s customization class, ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' "Autobot Ratchet" is a redeco of mass-retail [[First Aid (G1)#Generations|First Aid]] with a previously-unused pretooled head. Like all ''Combiner Wars''-style Deluxe Class toys, he can become an arm or a leg for any compatible Voyager Class torso figure.

:While the front hood/windshields are needed to be folded as kneecaps for his leg mode, the piece also sticks out automatically if he collides to Optimus Prime/Motormaster's (or and of Hot Spot's redecoes/retools) protruding foot while the legs are being swiveled in his standing position, unless the leg joints are bent down to lessen the problem.

:Class participants were given four deco options for the [[Ratchet (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Ratchet]] head ([[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|Marvel G1]], [[The Transformers (cartoon)|cartoon G1]], [[Transformers: Generation 2 (franchise)|G2]], and ''Shattered Glass'' Ratchet) and a fifth deco option for the automatically-included-in-the-sprues First Aid head as [[Medix (G1)#Toys|Medix]]. Four sticker sheets were available, but class participants were only allowed a G1 sticker sheet and one other of their choice.

:Class participants who finished creating their toy in-class were given an exclusive [[Enigma of Combination]] accessory that can be either held by Ratchet/Medix or fit into [[Ultra Prime#Toys|Ultra Prime]] or [[Optimus Maximus (G1)#Toys|Optimus Maximus]]'s chest. Unpainted/unstickered versions of Ratchet with the Ratchet head were offered for sale at the convention to regular attendees.

:A ''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Generations Selects]]'' add-on to ''[[War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Earthrise]]'', "Shattered Glass Ratchet" is a redeco of [[Ratchet (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Paradron Medics Ratchet]], itself a retool of ''Earthrise'' [[Ironhide (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Ironhide]], featuring a BotCon-inspired color scheme with the delicious purple Autobot insignia. Ratchet comes with a shield that forms his ambulance mode's roof and also comes with a miniature pistol that can be stashed away under the shield. The figure's feet stick out of the back of its ambulance mode, an issue shared with all iterations of this mold. Although stock photography depicts him with grey shoulder highlights, the final toy gives him purple ones instead.

:He is bundled with [[Optimus Prime (SG)#War for Cybertron Trilogy|Shattered Glass Optimus Prime]]. Much like most 2020 ''Selects'' product, the toy is only branded as part of the ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy (toyline)|War for Cybertron Trilogy]]'' and not ''Earthrise''.

==Notes==
[[File:SGRatchetFlatColors.jpg|thumb|upright=1.15|Damn you, situational lighting!]]
* In the original ''Shattered Glass'' continuity, Ratchet's first body is based on ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]'' Combat Class [[Roadblock (Energon)|Roadblock]]'s, with a new head. According to [[Greg Sepelak]], the character was intended to have scrubs-green as his base color.<ref>[https://twitter.com/MSipher/status/1340431087915257856 M Sipher on Twitter]</ref> Per artist [[Evan Gauntt|Evan Gauntt's]] pre-final "flat color" version<ref>[https://twitter.com/evangauntt/status/1303498819750039553 Evan Gauntt on Twitter]</ref> of Ratchet's first appearance, Ratchet '''was''' supposed to be scrubs-green in the original image. Unfortunately, the dynamic lighting from the scene's overhead lamp caused other creators to interpret him as being white with green highlights instead of his intended scrubs-green coloration. This misinterpretation of his colors has been reflected by every depiction of the character since, including his much-later Hasbro toy release. Oops?
* Ratchet's first body is based off of [[Roadblock (Energon)#Toys|Energon Roadblock]], Although his alternate mode in [[Recordicons]] is based off of [[Inferno (Energon)#Toys|Energon Inferno]] instead
* Ratchet's Autotrooper body is based on ''Combiner Wars'' Deluxe Class [[Offroad (CW)#Toys|Offroad]]/[[Trailbreaker (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Trailbreaker]] with a [[Hoist (G1)/toys#Notes|Hoist]]-style head.
* In ''Forged to Fight'', evil Ratchet shares a CG model with [[Ratchet (G1)#Transformers: Forged to Fight|his regular counterpart]] as a heavily stylized version of the 2008 [[Ratchet (G1)/toys#Universe (2008)|''Universe'' Deluxe Class toy]].

:''Chromedome is an [[Autobot]] [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmaster]] from the [[Generation 1 continuity family]].''
[[File:Chromedome manga.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|"You're such a coward, Wally!"]]
In most [[universal stream]]s, '''Chromedome''' (aka '''Tumbler'''<ref name="tumbler">"Tumbler" was revealed to have been Chromedome's original name in the [[2005 IDW continuity]]. See [[Chromedome (G1)/2005 IDW continuity#Notes|here]] for more details.</ref>) is a comparatively quiet academic. Originally a number-cruncher at [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]'s [[Institute for Higher Programming]] working on ways to improve the processing power of the [[Transformer]]s' computerized minds, Chromedome found himself forcibly dragged into the [[Great War (G1)|Great War]] when a [[Decepticon]] attack destroyed the facility. Chromedome put his work to use programming Autobots so they could outsmart their Decepticon foes, but alas, only wound up fostering an intellectual arms race of sorts, in which both sides competed to repurpose the newest advances in programming into military advantages. Ground down over the years by this inevitability, Chromedome has come to accept that war with the Decepticons cannot be prevented—but only won. Well-versed in the mechanisms of the Cybertronian mind, Chromedome has been known to specialize in [[mnemosurgery]], the science of manipulating the Transformer brain and the memories within.

In some universes, Chromedome is [[binary bonding|binary bonded]] to the egotistical [[Nebulan]] [[Stylor]], who is more concerned with the finer things in life than intellectual or military pursuits. As such, the two occasionally clash, with Chromedome trying to get Stylor to be a little less superficial, and Stylor trying to bring out Chromedome's more social side, but generally speaking, they get along quite well despite their differences.

As a quiet 'bot of the mind, Chromedome has a tendency to fade into the background, but there also exist universal streams in which he has foregone science and taken to the front lines of battle to become a much more prominent figure. The Chromedome of [[#Japanese Generation 1 cartoon continuity|these worlds]] is barely recognisable as the reserved scientist of those more well-known realities: instead, he is a hot-headed youth [[Burning justice|burning]] with an incredible passion for justice who even serves as [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|Fortress Maximus]]'s trusted, if impulsive and occasionally-irrational, second-in-command. He also works with the [[Partner Drone]] [[Moguru]].

==Fiction==
===Marvel Comics continuity===
====Marvel ''The Transformers'' comics====
{{noteukonly}}
A long time ago, on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], Chromedome was part of an Autobot strike unit led by [[Fortress Maximus (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Fortress Maximus]]. This unit operated out of a cave dug into the [[Manganese Mountains]], and often worked to foil the schemes of their primary nemesis, [[Scorponok (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Scorponok]]. {{storylink|Ring of Hate!}} ''Chromedome was a computer programmer, but grew increasingly disillusioned with his work being channeled exclusively into military uses.'' {{storylink|Stylor's Story}} Chromedome's last major mission on Cybertron was to upset a slave march to the [[smelting pool]]s. After that, however, Fortress Maximus revealed to the Autobots that he had grown sick of warfare, and planned to escape the endless ring of hate by immigrating to a new world altogether: [[Nebulos]]. At first, Chromedome was shocked, but eventually he and many others chose to join Fortress Maximus on his quest for peace.

[[File:Brokenglass-autobotstorage.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.4|Nebulan floors apparently are built as an upward slope.]]
Upon arrival on Nebulos, Chromedome chided Brainstorm for analyzing their new home with his digital readouts rather than just looking around. Indeed, Chromedome found that Nebulos was "a paradise". But when their attempts to forge an alliance with the native [[Nebulan]]s failed (due to sabotage for political reasons), Chromedome suggested that they "talk some sense" into their new neighbors. Their unit was met with military force and Fortress Maximus ordered Chromedome and the others into the woods.

Despite these setbacks, Fortress Maximus was determined to wage peace, not war. He brought an envoy of Autobots, including Chromedome, to the Nebulan capitol of [[Koraja]] to once again plead for peace. When the Nebulans still were not totally swayed after he and his Autobots disarmed, Maximus removed his own head from his shoulders, leaving his body deactivated and inoperable in the Nebulans' care. Chromedome and three other Autobots joined their leader in his gesture. It was this gesture which finally ushered in a cease fire with the Nebulans. {{storylink|Ring of Hate!}}

[[File:BrokenGlass-Chromedomeoof.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|As the saying goes, "Look before you boing your car into the air."]]
Chromedome and the four others who had removed their heads were kept confined within Koraja while the Council of Peers, collateral for a peaceful Autobot settlement within the forest. Soon, however, Scorponok's Decepticons followed the Autobots to Nebulos and attacked Koraja. The peaceful Nebulan [[Galen]] refused to surrender the captive Autobots to the Decepticons, but the terms of the cease fire prohibited the Autobots' heads be returned to their bodies. Instead, a loophole was sought. At first Galen and a few like-minded Nebulans attempted to operate the Autobot bodies by remote control, but this was an awkward solution. The Nebulan scientist [[Arcana]] suggested something more elegant yet groundbreaking - the Nebulans should undergo the [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmaster process]], surgically altering themselves to become the heads of the Autobots! [[Stylor]] volunteered to undergo the process to become Chromedome's head, and the procedure commenced. {{storylink|Broken Glass!}} ''Stylor would later narrate how fantastic the process of bonding with Chromedome had been for him. ''{{storylink|Stylor's Story}}

The new Headmaster Autobots met the Decepticons in battle, and the Decepticons were amazed at how powerful and agile their foes had suddenly become. Chromedome was able to leap out of the way of Scorponok's deadly stinger attack ''in car mode'', to Scorponok's incredulity, though he did land up-side down. When the Decepticons realized how outclassed they were, they staged a panicked retreat, and the Autobots returned to the city streets victorious. Along with the others, Chromedome removed his head so that the Nebulans could see that the terms of the cease fire were not broken, and they were met as heroes. {{storylink|Broken Glass!}}

[[File:Loveandsteel-runfortmaxrun.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.66|Chromedome thinks Fort Max is being a little passive-aggressive about the whole [[Alternate mode|altmode]] thing.]]
Despite their newfound celebrity, the populace was still wary of Chromedome and the others, so the [[Council of Peers]] arranged an inspection. Chromedome's body stood by silently as the Council of Peers expressed concerns with the Autobots' Nebulan partners. They were interrupted by a distress call from Galen's political rival, Lord [[Zarak (G1)|Zarak]], who had been kidnapped by the Decepticons. Fortress Maximus led Chromedome and the other Headmasters into battle, but the kidnapping was a ruse. Zarak and his political cronies had undergone the Headmaster process themselves, but with the Decepticons! Now evenly matched, the battle turned against the Autobots when they were forced to come to the aid of the Council of Peers, after which the Decepticons shot the Autobots in the back. Scorponok and the Decepticons claimed Chromedome, his partner, and the other Autobots as prisoners. {{storylink|Love and Steel!}}

Here they remained until Lord Zarak, with the last remaining bits of his dwindling sanity, realized the destruction he'd wrought upon his own homeworld. He set the Autobot Headmasters free, hoping to follow the Autobots to another world so they could leave Nebulos in peace. On their way out of Koraja, Chromedome and the other Headmasters battled the new Decepticon [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmasters]]. Once they escaped the Targetmasters, they returned to the Autobot camp in the forest, where the Headmasters learned of a distress signal from other Autobots on [[Earth]] and prepared to depart Nebulos. {{storylink|Brothers in Armor!!}}

[[File:WorldsApart-Chromedome.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|Every time Chromedome says this, Furman gets a dollar.]]
''Before they left, however, the Autobot Headmasters had another encounter with their Decepticon opposite numbers. After the Targetmasters were captured by the Decepticons for analysis and dissection, Chromedome and the Headmasters went out looking for them, only to run into the Decepticon Headmasters on the way. After Chromedome stared down [[Snapdragon (G1)|Snapdragon]], the Autobots regrouped to follow Mindwipe, the last of their attackers, who was apparently fleeing for safety. After entering the Decepticons' Fortress of Despair, however, Chromedome and the others realized they had been led into a trap, and were confronted by the might Scorponok and the Decepticon Targetmasters. In order to help even the odds, the Autobot Targetmasters were freed, but the Autobots weren't out of the woods yet. Chromedome singlehandedly fought Scorponok, lecturing his massive nemesis about how despite the differences between him and his partner Stylor, their shared purpose made them stronger than might alone. His speech helped renew Highbrow and Gort's bond, which had weakened throughout the fight due to their conflicting viewpoints. Once they were back in the fight, they helped Chromedome pummel down Scorponok, who was ultimately forced to withdraw.'' {{storylink|Worlds Apart!}}

''Chromedome and Stylor witnessed a duel between Fortress Maximus and Scorponok, with overall victory between the two factions at stake. However, the clash turned out to be a distraction set-up by the Decepticons to steal a fuel convertor. With it in hand, the Decepticons blasted off towards Earth, forcing the Autobots to follow.'' {{storylink|The Final Conflict}}

[[File:TrialbyFire-Chromedome.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.67|Eek, don't tell Rewind he's still doing this.]]
During the long journey to Earth, the Autobot Headmasters had Fortress Maximus heavily upgraded into a larger, more powerful body. Once their construction was completed, Chromedome introduced Fortress Maximus's full arsenal of abilities to the others, including his battle station mode and [[Cerebros (G1)|Cerebros]]. Upon arrival, Fortress Maximus, Chromedome and the other Headmasters took a shuttle down to Earth's surface, and located the caves in [[Mount St. Hilary]] where the distress call had first been broadcast. They also found the broadcaster himself, an Autobot named [[Bumblebee (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Goldbug]] whose [[brain module]] had been retrofitted into a tiny electronic toy car. [[Toy Soldiers!|Long story]]. Scorponok and the Decepticon Headmasters had also come to Earth after the distress call, however, and a battle broke out. The battle proved costly, as Galen died protecting an Earthling from Scorponok. He passed on his control helmet to this boy, [[Spike Witwicky (G1)|Spike Witwicky]], leaving Fortress Maximus and the Autobots in his hands. {{storylink|Trial by Fire!}}

Fortress Maximus's group of Autobots inevitably met up with the group of Earthbound Autobots led by [[Grimlock (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Grimlock]]. Unfortunately, Grimlock was difficult to deal with, and so their meetup resulted in a battle for Autobot supremacy between Grimlock and [[Blaster (G1)|Blaster]] on Earth's [[Moon (moon)|moon]]. Chromedome disembarked along with the rest of the ''[[Steelhaven (G1)|Steelhaven]]'' crew to watch the fight. {{storylink|Totaled!}}

When the [[Micromaster]] [[Air Strike Patrol]] raided [[MacDill Air Force Base]], returned Autobot leader [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Optimus Prime]] led nearly all of the Autobots' forces to its rescue, including Chromedome. But when Optimus began to suspect fowl play from a third party, he ordered the Autobots to retreat back to the [[Ark (G1)|Ark]] without him. At first they were hesitant to leave their leader behind, but Chromedome and the others eventually agreed. {{storylink|All the Familiar Faces!}}

[[File:EyeoftheStorm-legquest.jpg|thumb|upright=0.85|And so Prime sez back, "Maybe if you were [[Ratchet (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Ratchet]] [[Yesterday's Heroes!|I would care]]."]]
Soon it was learned that the vengeful chaos god [[Unicron/Generation 1|Unicron]], their forgotten enemy, had learned the location of [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] and was headed there to destroy the Transformers' creator [[Primus]]. Since the [[Matrix of Leadership|Creation Matrix]] was the only thing that could destroy him, Optimus Prime sent teams to find it. However, the new Decepticon leader [[Thunderwing (G1)|Thunderwing]] returned with it instead, and Chromedome and the other Autobots on board fought the Matrix-possessed [[Pretender]]. The corporeal form of the Matrix's increasing evil influences grabbed Chromedome and tried to throw him at [[Blurr (G1)|Blurr]], but missed. Good for Blurr, but not so great for Chromedome. {{storylink|All Fall Down}} After Thunderwing was defeated (and unfortunately the Matrix as well), Chromedome was sent to [[Fixit (G1)|Fixit]] for repairs. He snarked to [[Hot Rod (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Hot Rod]] that he'd had enough of the [[Matrix Quest]], and was ready for a "leg quest." Chromedome was still being repaired when Optimus Prime announced over the Ark's communications system that he was surrendering the Autobots to Scorponok's Decepticons in the desperate hope that it would encourage an alliance between them against Unicron. {{storylink|Eye of the Storm}}

Ultimately, the Transformers were transported to Cybertron to face Unicron. Like any very smart individual, Chromedome was last seen transforming into his car mode and driving away as fast as he absolutely could. {{storylink|On the Edge of Extinction!}}

Following the invasion of Cybertron by [[Bludgeon (G1)|Bludgeon]]'s [[Blitz Engine]]s, Chromedome was last seen in car mode driving towards them very fast, alongside [[Huffer (G1)|Huffer]], [[Hound (G1)|Hound]], [[Siren (G1)|Siren]] and [[Mirage (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Mirage]]. That perhaps wasn't so smart. {{storylink|Destiny, Part Four}} He managed to make it out all right, though, as after the battle it was reported that he had successfully been reunited with his original head on Nebulos, and Stylor's Headmaster process had been reverse-engineered so that he could reintegrate with Nebulan society. {{storylink|The War to End All Wars, Part 1}}

When Cybertron went to war with [[Jhiaxus (G2)|Jhiaxus]] and his [[Hub (G2)|Hub Network]], Chromedome was part of the commando team of Autobots who made a beachhead on the Hub to coordinate a surgical strike on the network. When the strike failed, Chromedome and the others were hunted down by Jhiaxus's [[Primum Fugae]]. {{storylink|The War to End All Wars, Part 3}} They were imprisoned at the [[Corral]] until Jhiaxus fell to outside forces. {{storylink|The War to End All Wars, Part 4}}

[[File:Rebirth3 chromedome.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|left|Chromedome eagerly awaits the cue to speak his one line in the entire series.]]
Chromedome was stationed on Cybertron in [[2007]] when the combined forces of the Decepticons attacked the planet with the intention of opening the [[Plasma energy|Plasma Energy Chamber]]. Chromedome and his allies were able to steal back the key to the chamber, but not before a bolt of its energy was briefly released, hurling them and their shuttle across the galaxy. Eventually, the shuttle began to slow, as Chromedome noted its engines had finally burned out, but it still had enough momentum to lead it to crash on a nearby alien world. The Autobots survived the crash, but before long, they were captured by a cell of rebel natives, who mistook them for robotic agents of the planet's evil ruling council, the [[Hive (G1)|Hive]]. Imprisoned and facing execution by magnetic bombs, Chromedome kept his cool, calmly inquiring as to the name of the planet, and was given his answer by [[Duros]]: [[Nebulos]]. Before the rebels could destroy the Autobots, a squad of Decepticons arrived to steal back the Plasma Energy Chamber key, and although Chromedome helped repel them by hurling the magnetic bombs, the villains managed to abduct several of the Autobots. Chromedome, [[Brainstorm (G1)|Brainstorm]], [[Hardhead (G1)|Hardhead]] and [[Highbrow (G1)|Highbrow]] tried to give chase, but found their way barred by the Hive's machines. Returning to the rebels' base, they learned the story behind the Hive and their machines, and decided to employ a theory devised by Brainstorm that would see the Nebulans bond with the Autobots as "Headmasters" to help defeat by the Decepticons and the Hive. The enthusiastic Chromedome was the first to volunteer for the process, and was bonded to rebel strategist Stylor. {{storylink|The Rebirth, Part 1}}

[[File:Rebirth2 chromedome and stylor.jpg|thumb|upright=1.15|You know what they say about people who dress like their cars...]]
Chromedome and his fellow new-born Headmasters proceeded to smash their way through the Hive's machines and rescue their friends from the Decepticons; during the battle, Chromedome personally shot down [[Scourge (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Scourge]]. This defeat prompted the Hive and the Decepticons to join forces to become Headmasters and [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmasters]] themselves, and when they attacked once more, Chromedome and [[Crosshairs (G1)|Crosshairs]] found themselves no match for the [[Horrorcon (G1)|Horrorcons]]. {{storylink|The Rebirth, Part 2}}

With the key back in their hands, the Decepticons departed Nebulos and returned to Cybertron, which [[Galvatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Galvatron]] then moved into Earth orbit, planning to destroy both worlds by opening the Plasma Energy Chamber and using its energy to explode the [[Sun]]. Chromedome and the Autobots followed them, but when [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]] insisted that the Plasma Energy Chamber key ''not'' be destroyed (in accordance with the wishes of [[Vector Sigma]]), their Nebulan allies rebelled and ran off, leaving Chromedome and the other Headmasters stuck in vehicle form. Following their partners into the bowels of the Decepticon city-robot Scorponok, Chromedome and the Autobots were captured, but were thankfully saved by the arrival of [[Spike Witwicky (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Spike Witwicky]] and his new creation, Fortress Maximus. Subsequently, the Plasma Energy Chamber was deactivated and the Decepticons were exiled to deep space, and with the [[Golden Age]] of Cybertron restored, Chromedome returned to Nebulos with the Headmasters and Targetmasters to help to eradicate every last trace of the Hive's evil from the planet. {{storylink|The Rebirth, Part 3}}

{{note|In Japan, Chromedome is a small robot who transforms into a head and controls a larger, lifeless [[Transtector]] body. The Headmasters toyline referred to the small robot as "Chrome", with "Chromedome" being the name of the combined small robot/Transtector form, but this distinction of nomenclature is made in fiction only very rarely, with the character usually being referred to as "Chromedome" regardless of what form he takes.}}

[[File:Hmep8 chromedome and abel.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.4|Oh, where is your silicon, baby?]]
Four million years ago, Chromedome and his friends [[Jack (G1)|Jack]] and [[Abel]] were among a group of [[Cyberdroid|diminutive Cybertronians]] who departed Cybertron under the leadership of Fortress, seeking to escape the eternal war that had consumed the planet. {{storylink|The Mystery of Planet Master}} Alas, engine trouble caused their craft to crash-land on the planet Master, an inhospitable world whose murderous environments and wildly changeable atmospheric conditions threatened the lives of the Cybertronians almost as soon as they stepped off their ship and were caught in a desert of sinking sands. The need for survival fostered several technological advances, and the Cybertronians fought against the odds to make a life for themselves on the planet. {{storylink|The Four-Million-Year-Old Veil of Mystery}} This relative peace was eventually disrupted, however, when a shadowy ninja able to transform into six different modes attacked an [[energon]] mining facility on the planet. Abel tried to drive him off, only for the ninja to brutally murder Abel and his militia group in front of Chromedome's eyes. As he cradled his friend's dead body, Chromedome felt hatred towards evil-doers for the first time in his life and vowed vengeance against the Decepticon. {{storylink|Terror! The Six Shadows}}

[[File:Headmasters tf stuck.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|A ''Body''master technology?..]]
When the scientists of Master made their next quantum leap of technology with the creation of larger, lifeless Transformer bodies called [[Transtector]]s, Chromedome and many of his comrades underwent rigorous physical and mental training to master the art of [[transformation]], learning to transform into heads that connected to the Transtectors, placing them under their control. While Jack unfortunately washed out of the program, {{storylink|Miraculous Warriors, Targetmasters (Part 2)}} Chromedome was one of ten warriors who became one of these elite "Headmasters" (even if he ''did'' have a little trouble getting his Transtector to transform the first time out). Unfortunately, half their number soon rebelled against Fortress's leadership, siding against him with a traitor named [[Scorponok (G1)|Scorponok]], who soon forged an alliance with the Decepticon leader, [[Galvatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Galvatron]]. {{storylink|The Mystery of Planet Master}}

[[File:Hmep2 chromedome.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.4|Perspective by [[Pat Lee]].]]
In the year 2011, when Galvatron launched his latest attack on Cybertron with the added power of his new Decepticon Headmasters, Chromedome and his fellow Autobot Headmasters traveled to the planet to help their comrades defend their homeworld. {{storylink|Four Warriors Come out of the Sky}} Making a dramatic entrance in the middle of the conflict, Chromedome grappled with [[Weirdwolf (G1)|Weirdwolf]] and helped [[Brainstorm (G1)|Brainstorm]] thwart [[Mindwipe (G1)|Mindwipe]]'s hypnotism, before Fortress's Battleship Maximus forced the Decepticon off. The Autobot Headmasters then formally introduced themselves to Cybertron's Autobots, and Chromedome proposed that they accompany [[Hot Rod (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Hot Rod]] to Earth to help him search for the missing [[Matrix of Leadership]], needed to stabilize the malfunctioning [[Vector Sigma]]. [[Wheelie (G1)|Wheelie]] argued against the notion, and he and Chromedome immediately started fighting, so Hot Rod sidelined them for the moment and headed to Earth with [[Blaster (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Blaster]] instead. Blaster perished during the search, and the emotionally shaken Wheelie told Chromedome they were now counting on him and the Headmasters. {{storylink|The Mystery of Planet Master}} Chromedome's team quickly joined Hot Rod on Earth and held off the Decepticon Headmasters while Hot Rod recovered the Matrix. Together, the group returned to Cybertron, where Hot Rod used the Matrix to become [[Hot Rod (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Rodimus Prime]] once more, but he was unable to stabilize Vector Sigma in time, forcing [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]] to sacrifice his life to do so. {{storylink|Birth of the Fantastic Double Prime}}

When the Decepticons unveiled their newest invention, the [[Madmachine]], Chromedome's plan to attack [[Chaar]] directly was shot down. He and the Headmasters then acted like a bunch of insensitive pricks to the Autobot Cassettes, who were still mourning the loss of Blaster, but pulled their heads out of their butts when Blaster was resurrected as Twincast. They then helped the [[Throttlebot]]s defend Cybertron against the Madmachine, destroying the evil device. {{storylink|The Great Cassette Operation}} A little later, Chromedome and Hardhead hunted down a stowaway on Battleship Maximus, only for it to turn out to be [[Daniel Witwicky (G1)|Daniel]] and Wheelie. With the two youngsters at their side, Chromedome and the Headmasters then went on to help liberate the planet [[Beast (planet)|Beast]] from Decepticon control. {{storylink|Rebellion on Planet Beast}} Daniel was also instrumental in destroying the Decepticons' metal-warping meteor [[Metamorphose]], and Chromedome and the Headmasters helped hold the Decepticon forces off so the boy could complete his task. {{storylink|Approach of the Demon Meteorite}}

[[File:Hmep7 chromedome crossheadon.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|Chromehead or Harddome?]]
Investigating word of a Decepticon attack on the planet [[Praum]], Chromedome and the Autobot Headmasters found themselves caught in a trap sprung by their old enemy Scorponok. Trapped in a subterranean chamber with the planet's endless desert sands pouring in on top of them, the Headmasters recalled their early days on Master, and decided to try their head-swapping "[[Head Formation|Cross-Head On]]" technique to boost their power and free themselves. Chromedome ''meant'' to switch heads with Highbrow, but accidentally wound up on top of Hardhead's Transtector instead. Nevertheless, the idea worked, and the freed Headmasters took the fight to the Decepticons, with Chromedome pummelling Galvatron himself. {{storylink|The Four-Million-Year-Old Veil of Mystery}}

[[File:Hmep8 chromedome ninjastar.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.4|Chromedome wonders if ninja stars are edible.]]
After a sextet of mysterious blackmailers threatened six nations on Earth, the Headmasters staked out [[New York City]], where Chromedome took offense to his team-mates comparing the Statue of Liberty's looks to [[Arcee (G1)|Arcee]]'s. Hop-scotching around the globe trying and failing to keep up with the blackmailers, the Headmasters were at the end of their rope, and subsequently began fighting with the [[Trainbot]]s when they found out they taken Daniel and Wheelie shopping in Japan. Chromedome had the decency to feel like a jerk when Daniel got upset at the fight, and calmed down long enough to apologise. Looking at a ninja star Daniel had bought in Japan, Chromedome was suddenly reminded of the shadowy ninja's visit to Master years beforehand. Realizing that they were not dealing with six blackmailers, but with that selfsame six-changing ninja, Chromedome and the Headmasters made peace with the Trainbots and worked together to stop the mysterious mech and uncover his true identity: the Decepticon ninja commander, [[Sixshot (G1)|Sixshot]]! Sixshot was able to escape justice, but the long-standing desire Chromedome had for revenge over Abel's murder had been reawakened in the Headmaster's heart. {{storylink|Terror! The Six Shadows}}

[[File:Hm10 chromedome telepathy.jpg|thumb|A little known fact is Chromedome's Autobot symbol on his chest is ALSO his weak point. How do you think he found out Scorponok's?]]
Chromedome and Hardhead were investigating the Decepticons' movements on Earth when the villains' assembled forces staged a massive attack on Cybertron in order to obtain the new alloy, [[cybertonuron]], that had been developed by Vector Sigma. The duo headed straight to Cybertron and regrouped with their allies, launching into battle with the Decepticon Headmasters. During the fight, however, their enemies mysteriously pulled out, {{storylink|Cybertron Is in Grave Danger, Part 1}} so the Headmasters split up to hunt them down. After locating the Decepticons, Chromedome used his Headmaster powers to telepathically summon his allies to his side so they could keep Weirdwolf and [[Skullcruncher (G1)|Skullcruncher]] busy while he chased Mindwipe through Cybertron's subterranean tunnels. Chromedome caught up to Mindwipe in Vector Sigma's chamber, where the Decepticon hypnotist revealed he was planting bombs that would destroy the planet. All attempts to remove the bombs failed, forcing Chromedome to return to the surface and sound the alarm. The Transformers all withdrew from Cybertron, which was then devastated when the bombs exploded. {{storylink|Cybertron Is in Grave Danger, Part 2}}

[[File:Hm11 chromedome arcee dance.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.4|Oh, Calculon!]]
Despite this sad turn of events, punctuated by the departure of Rodimus Prime and the appointment of Fortress as leader in his place, the Autobots pressed on, and even held a party to announce the successful completion of the [[Sol 1]] satellite, a joint venture between the Autobots and [[human]]ity, during which Chromedome danced with Arcee. It wasn't all good news, however: Chromedome and the Headmasters failed to prevent Sol 1 from falling into Decepticon hands, and were forced to destroy it rather than let their enemies keep it. {{storylink|The Shadow Emperor, Scorponok}} Chromedome's team was at least able to get one in the win column when they helped saved a South American village from a Decepticon-instigated volcanic eruption. Chromedome was given a necklace by village girl [[Alyssa]] as thanks. {{storylink|The Dormant Volcano Mysteriously Erupts}} Later, Chromedome joined in the defence of [[San Francisco]] when the city was attacked by the Decepticons with [[Buridanka|a giant carnivorous plant]]. {{storylink|Head On!! Fortress Maximus}}

When Spike, Daniel, Wheelie and the Trainbots uncovered a Decepticon plot to destroy [[Mars (planet)|Mars]], Chromedome and the Headmasters headed straight to the red planet to aid them. After defeating [[Predaking (G1)|Predaking]] and rescuing Daniel and Wheelie, however, the Headmasters were caught in a trap and used as bait to lure Battleship Maximus into position so it could be immobilized. {{storylink|Explosion on Mars!! Maximus Is in Danger}} Chromedome's team fought on against the Decepticon Headmasters and the [[Terrorcon (G1)|Terrorcons]], but when Scorponok arrived with his new ultimate weapon—a gigantic Transtector of his own—the fight was lost. Although Chromedome and the Autobots were able to escape, Mars was destroyed by Scorponok's [[plasma energy]] bombs. {{storylink|Explosion on Mars!! MegaZarak Appears}}

[[File:Hmep16 chromedome wobbles.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|Chromedome fails miserably at the Soulja Boy dance.]]
Furious after the destruction of Mars, Chromedome was determined to get revenge, despite Fortress's orders. He and Hardhead hid themselves in the Maximus's cargo hold in [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]], and when the ship went on patrol on the fringes of Decepticon territory, the pair ejected and headed for Chaar on their own. Much to their irritation, however, Autobot deep-cover agent [[Punch (G1)|Punch]] had been given information on their movements, and fed it to Scorponok, who deployed the Decepticon Headmasters and [[Blitzwing (G1)|Blitzwing]] to intercept the pair and see them off. Subsequently, Chromedome joined in the Autobot attack on Scorponok's coronation on Earth's moon. {{storylink|Return of the Immortal Emperor}} Later, Chromedome helped deliver energy to the stricken world of [[Sandra (G1)|Sandra]] by abandoning his Transtector and leaving it to serve as a decoy while he and Hardhead took a small shuttlecraft to the planet. When the Decepticons attacked the planet, Chromedome and Hardhead, still in their small robot forms, used their diminutive size to win the battle by sneaking bombs onto Scorponok's Transtector. {{storylink|SOS from Planet Sandra}}

[[File:Hmep18 chromedome vs sixshot.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.4|Wildcat Rescue Force!]]
Chromedome joined the Headmasters and Trainbots in serving as bodyguards for Spike when he met with Galvatron to discuss the unlikely possibility of the Autobots and Decepticons working on energy research together. When a report from Punch revealed that the "Galvatron" Spike was talking with was actually an impostor, Chromedome had the Trainbots stage a diversion so he could burst in on the negotiations and reveal the deception. The false Galvatron was revealed to be Sixshot in disguise, and a fierce battle erupted between Chromedome and the ninja that ran all down the shoreline. Seeing through Sixshot's tricks, Chromedome wounded him and forced him to retreat. It was discovered that the Decepticons had staged the phoney negotiations to cover for their departure on an interplanetary energy quest, and Chromedome joined the Autobots in pursuing them aboard Battleship Maximus. {{storylink|Daniel Faces His Biggest Crisis Ever!!}}

[[File:Hm19 chromedome makk energymoat.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4]]
On the Decepticons' trail through space, the Autobots discovered a ruined ship from [[Hive (planet)|Hive]] floating in space, victims of a Decepticon attack. Chromedome investigated the wreck and discovered [[Makku's father|a survivor]], but the alien did not live long, clinging to life just enough to give Chromedome [[Medal of Valour|a medallion]] to pass down to his son. As they drew closer to Hive, Battleship Maximus came under fire from the suspicious natives, and while Fortress insisted on showing non-resistance, Chromedome's fiery temper flared, and he headed down to the planet's surface on his own to try and speak with Hive's [[Queen Bee]]. On Hive, he met the soldier's son, [[Makku]], who helped him gain an audience with the queen and convince her that the Autobots were on their side. Of course, the Decepticons chose that moment to strike, and Chromedome was blasted into the energy moat around the queen's castle by Galvatron and Sixshot. Luckily, with Makku's help, Chromedome was able to absorb energy from the moat and leap back into the middle of the battle, joining with the other Headmasters in using the Maximus's "Master Shot" cannon to force the Decepticons off. {{storylink|Fight to the Death on Planet Hive!!}}

Shadowing the Decepticons on their way to their next target, the worlds of [[Twin Star]], Chromedome suggested attacking the Decepticons in the void of space. Brainstorm chided him for not thinking his actions through, and the pair started arguing, until Brainstorm's brains helped win the fight on Twin Star. {{storylink|Battle for Defense of the False Planet}} On their next stop, the planet [[Daros]], Chromedome's team used the Master Shot again to force the Decepticon off, but sadly not before the Decepticons killed a [[Beastformer]] named [[Tekna]]. In death, however, Tekna left them with a piece of microfilm supposedly containing coded information on Scorponok's weak spot. {{storylink|Find MegaZarak's Weak Spot!!}}

[[File:Hm22 chromedome repairs.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.4|Head On! Neck Wrung!]]
While conducting exterior repairs on Battleship Maximus on the way to the planet [[Paradise]], Chromedome goofed pretty badly when he punched the ship's hull in frustration, jostling loose a few important components and sending them floating off into space. Although he was able to fix his mistake, the delay necessitated that Highbrow go on ahead to Paradise, where he was captured by the Decepticons. Once they made it to Paradise, the worried Chromedome led the Headmasters to Highbrow's rescue, and they performed the [[Head Formation]] to power up their teammate. {{storylink|Head Formation of Friendship}} Soon after, Chromedome helped battle the Decepticons on [[Pirate Planet]]. {{storylink|Mystery of the Space Pirate Ship}}

With the Decepticons' energy raids done, the Headmasters to Athenia. Sadly, Chromedome's team was unable to prevent [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ultra Magnus]]'s death at the hands of Sixshot on Earth, but they did arrive in time to deliver a ferocious Head Formation-powered beating to the six-changer. Chromedome's hatred of the ninja only grew. {{storylink|Ultra Magnus Dies!!}} Magnus's death only galvanized the Decepticons into more aggressive action, and the Autobots were spread thin fighting back. Chromedome and his team followed Galvatron to [[Alaska]], where they used information from Punch to pinpoint his weak spot—his head—and defeat him, entombing him in ice using the power of the Head Formation. {{storylink|The Emperor of Destruction Vanishes on an Iceberg}}

[[File:IRiskMyLifeForEarth-Letgoofme.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|Head on, hands off.]]
Galvatron's demise allowed Scorponok to take leadership of the Decepticons, and he initiated a plan to destroy the Earth by simultaneously erupting every volcano on the [[Pacific Ring of Fire]]. When Spike realized what they were planning, Chromedome escorted him to Earth to present his findings, only for [[Autobot City (G1)|Autobot City]] to come under attack by [[Trypticon (G1)|Trypticon]] and Sixshot. Consumed with rage, Chromedome rushed to engage Sixshot, and the unprotected Spike was wounded by Trypticon. The Trainbots and [[Metroplex (G1)|Metroplex]] forced the Decepticons off, but Chromedome was consumed with guilt and anger. He started blaming everyone else, including Fortress, claiming it never would have happened if he had allowed them to take out the Decepticons' Earth base, and in his frenzy, tried to leave for Earth to take care of it himself. Restrained by Hardhead, Chromedome was consigned to Athenia by Fortress, deemed incapable of leading due to his emotional statue. While the other Headmasters headed to Earth to engage the Decepticons on the Kamchatka Peninsula, Chromedome turned his attention to the coded information left to them by Tekna. With Daniel and Wheelie's help, Chromedome was finally able to decode the microfilm and identify Scorponok's weak spot, and raced to Earth to pass it on to Fortress. With Chromedome's information, Fortress was able to defeat Scorponok, and force him and the Decepticons off the Earth. {{storylink|I Risk My Life for Earth}}

[[File:Hm27 chromedome hardhead cross head on.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.4|Head Off!]]
With the Decepticons gone from Earth, the Autobots set about removing all traces of their evil from the planet. Chromedome and Hardhead were charged with removing the plasma bombs planted along the Ring of Fire, and things were going well until a volcanic tremor caused Chromedome to drop one of the bombs, setting off its timer. Switching heads with Hardhead to boost their strength and courage, the pair ran through the waves of magma and collapsing rock walls, successfully getting the bombs to the surface so Battleship Maximus could take them into space. The intention was to let the bombs detonate harmlessly in the void, but on the way to jettison them, the Maximus encountered a ship from Master containing a group of refugees, pursued by a team of Decepticons. A newly arrived team of elite Autobots—[[Pointblank]], [[Crosshairs (G1)|Crosshairs]] and [[Sureshot (G1)|Sureshot]]—set out to rescue the Master refugees, when the bombs detonated, causing a plasma explosion that fused the refugees and the Autobots and Decepticons together, creating the [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmasters]]. {{storylink|Miraculous Warriors, Targetmasters (Part 1)}} Chromedome took an immediate and strong dislike to Pointblank, who considered the Headmasters weak and undisciplined.

[[File:Hm28 chromedome shoots jack.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|So you see, we shouldn't be mad at Jack for leaving us. We should be mad at that [[Decepticon|fruity little club]] for [[Mindwipe (G1)|scrambling his brains]]!]]
Learning from the Master refugees that Scorponok's Decepticons had returned to Master and were causing chaos there, Chromedome returned to his adopted homeworld with the Autobots to help defend the natives. Soon after his arrival, he was reunited with his old friend Jack, who at first pretended like he did not know him: The sight of the successful Headmaster that Chromedome had become reminded him of how he had failed in the same pursuit. Chromedome wouldn't stand for his friend's guff, telling him that just because he was a Headmaster, it didn't mean he was better than Jack, whose incredible scientific mind had helped create Battleship Maximus and the [[Master Sword]]. Jack apologised and welcomed Chromedome properly, but after they parted ways, Sixshot struck, impersonating Chromedome and kidnapping Jack so that the Decepticons could torture information on the composition of the Master Sword out of him. Jack refused to give them any information, so instead, the villains planted a bomb in his body and Mindwipe hypnotised him to walk into Battleship Maximus. The horrified Chromedome was forced to shoot Jack to stop him, and the bomb detonated, taking his life. His hatred of Sixshot burning stronger than ever, Chromedome blasted off the ninja's arms, and was set to pursue him until Pointblank held him back. In the wake of the battle, Chromedome and Pointblank confronted each other, mutually concluding that they didn't ''like'' each other, but they respected one another, and would fight together in the future. {{storylink|Miraculous Warriors, Targetmasters (Part 2)}}

[[File:Hm29 chromedome daniel rescue wheelie.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.4|...And then Chromedome locked that closet door, never to be opened again.]]
Having failed to pry information on the Master Sword from Jack, the Decepticons kidnapped Wheelie in order to ransom him for the data they needed to construct a weapon to counter it. Although Chromedome and Daniel snuck into Scorponok's Transtector and rescued Wheelie, the fight broke out over the data disk, and the Decepticons were able to make off with it. Chromedome, Wheelie and Daniel were charged with cleaning Battleship Maximus for their breach of the rules. {{storylink|The Master Sword Is in Danger!!}} Using the stolen data, Scorponok created the [[Zarak Shield]], despite Chromedome and his allies' attempts to stop them. {{storylink|The Zarak Shield Turns the Tide}}

[[File:Hm31 pointblank decks chromedome.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|LET ME SHOW YOU THE DANCE OF MY PEOPLE!]]
While discussing what the Autobots' next step should be, Chromedome opposed the Targetmasters' plan of luring the Decepticons into space, believing that they might lose them, and advocating a hard strike now before they left Master. The Targetmasters dismissed his plan out of hand, prompting an angry Chromedome to go off on his own an set up a meeting with the young warriors of Master, led by [[Kirk]]. He soon brought the other Headmasters in to join the effort, and together, they formulated a plan that involved luring the Decepticons into the confines of a nearby cloudy mountain range. The plan went wrong, however, when Scorponok emerged from beneath the planet's surface right in the middle of a city, and many of the young warriors died in the disorganized response. Chromedome was forced to call the warriors off, and to make matters worse, Fortress's Master Sword was bested by the Zarak Shield. The victorious Decepticons departed Master, heading back to Earth, while Pointblank punched some sense into Chromedome, blaming him for the entire debacle. {{storylink|Operation: Destroy the Decepticons}}

The Autobots quickly gave chase, catching up to the Decepticons in space, but the battle that resulted led to Sixshot and Daniel being stranded on the barren planet [[Daira]]. The Autobots were able to track them down after a while, but Chromedome was unconvinced by Daniel's claims that Sixshot was a noble warrior who had protected him. {{storylink|My Friend Sixshot!}} Soon after, when Scorponok had to set down in the asteroid belt for repairs, the Autobots caught up another battle broke out. Sixshot decided to settle their rivalry once and for all, and challenged Chromedome to a climactic one-on-one duel on the asteroid [[Juno]]. Chromedome accepted the challenge, refusing to listen to the protestations of Fortress or Daniel, and even punching Brainstorm when he offered to fight as his second, taking it as a slight to his abilities. Ironically, it was Pointblank who supported Chromedome's decision, understanding his feelings because he had been brash and impassioned in his own youth. The pair's fated duel began, but before long, Daniel got in the middle of the fight and tried to stop his two friends from killing each other. A definite outcome was denied Chromedome, however, when bombs Scorponok had planted on the asteroid in an effort to destroy Sixshot began to detonate, forcing the combatants to break off their battle. {{storylink|Duel on the Asteroid}}

[[File:Hm35 chromedome hardhead hypnotised.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4]]
Thanks to the delay caused by Chromedome's duel, the Decepticons beat the Autobots back to Earth, and began causing chaos, erecting energy-discharging "[[Death Tower]]s" composed from [[crysmagnetal]] around the planet. Upon landing, Chromedome and the Autobots had to rush off to rescue the human victims of a plane crash caused by the Decepticons, which included Daniel's parents. {{storylink|The Final Showdown on Earth (Part 1)}} After trying and failing to stop the erection of another Death Tower in [[Egypt]], Chromedome and the assembled Autobot army followed the Decepticons to the North Pole for a final mighty battle. During the fight, Chromedome and Hardhead were hit by Mindwipe's hypnotism, but were saved by Twincast and his cassettes. With the Death Towers creating a field of energy that was threatening to tear the Earth apart, Chromedome and the Headmasters joined in Head Formation, hoping to channel their energy into Fortress Maximus and give him the strength to destroy Scorponok and the crysmagnetal. Their own energies were not enough, but at Daniel's suggestion, they expanded their formation to include the assembled Autobot forces. Thus combined in "Final Formation", they provided Fortress with the energy he needed, and the Earth was saved.

Following their defeat at the North Pole, the Decepticons were finally expelled from Earth, and the Autobots prepared to follow them. Chromedome assured Daniel that although the Autobots were leaving, the peace they had brought to the Earth was here to stay. {{storylink|The Final Showdown on Earth (Part 2)}}

Slumped miserably on the barren surface of Master in their smallest robot forms, Chromedome, Fortress and Highbrow's attention was caught when a [[Fortress Maximus (RID)|time-travelling spaceship]] materialized over their heads and crashed nearby. By studying and reverse-engineering the technology found in this spaceship, Fortress and the scientists of Master invented Transtectors and the Headmaster process. {{storylink|Kiss Players episode 48|Kiss Players #48}} {{storylink|Sparkbots Volume 3}}

====''Super-God Masterforce Master File''====
Following the expulsion of the Decepticons from Earth after the battle at the North Pole, the Transformers' war shifted into a series of space-based exchanges between the planet Athenia and Chaar known as the [[Master Wars]]. Chromedome and his fellow Headmasters had further training under the tutelage of Pointblank and the Targetmasters, and grew into mature warriors, who went on to help train the next generation of [[Autobot Master Warrior]]s.

With the space bridge destroyed, travel between Athenia and Earth became severely limited, and so, when news of a [[Devil Z|new Decepticon threat]] rising on Earth reached the Autobots in space from [[Metalhawk (G1)|Metalhawk]] on Earth, it proved difficult to spare any troops. This need fostered another scientific leap: the scientists of Master developed the [[Master-Brace|Masterforce system]], which would allow human beings to bond with Transtectors and defend Earth while the Autobots continued to fight in space. Chromedome participated in the project, and arranged for six Transtectors and six sets of [[Master-Brace]]s to be sent to Earth on a transport ship. Unfortunately, the ship was intercepted by the Decepticons in transit, and half its cargo was stolen, leading to the birth of [[Headmaster Junior]]s on both the Autobot and Decepticon side. {{storylink|Master File No, 1}}

After giving the Transtectors to the three human children, [[Shūta Gō|Shūta]], [[Cab (human)|Cab]], and [[Minerva (human)|Minerva]], transforming them into the Autobots' new Headmaster Junior warriors, Metalhawk informed them of Chromedome's role in their new powers. Shūta had heard his [[Haruma Gō|father]] speak of Chromedome before and expressed a desire to meet him, so Metalhawk played a recorded message that Chromedome had sent them. Evidently recorded in the middle of battle, the short but sweet missive had Chromedome inform them that fighting was only worsening out in space, and that he hoped they would all fight their hardest on Earth as well. The Headmasters Juniors all thought Chromedome was cool, and vowed not to let him down. {{storylink|Birth! Headmaster Jrs}}

Years prior to his departure from Master, Chromedome helped uncover and put an end to Scorponok kidnapping and experimenting on his own people. {{storylink|Mutant Targetmaster Birth Chapter}}

In a dream, [[Brainstorm (G1)|Brainstorm]] told the [[Legends World]]'s [[Rattrap (BW)|Rattrap]] the story about how he and his comrades, including Chrome, left [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] to escape the war and settled on [[Master (planet)|Master]]. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 9|Bonus Edition Vol. 9}} Brainstorm later told Rattrap that he'd gotten a new body since his previous adventures, angering the nearby Chromedome who found it unfair that only ''he'' got an upgrade and accused him of ruining the [[Head Formation|Cross-Head On]]. [[Highbrow (G1)|Highbrow]] tried to calm him down by saying they needed all the power they could get since [[Scorponok (G1)|MegaZarak]] might get resurrected, but this didn't appease Chromedome who retorted that that just means they should ''all'' get upgrades. He was surprised when Brainstorm had lost his new body and watched him take it back from a thieving Rattrap, comparing the flip-down [[Tech Spec]] plate used to catch Rattrap to a mousetrap. {{storylink|Transformers 2015 Brainstorm Chapter|Brainstorm Chapter}}

Scorponok indeed returned, and a battle with him in 2021 ended with Chromedome and his comrades being afflicted with "[[blackball]]s", tiny black holes that were causing their bodies to shrink until they would eventually collapse in on themselves. To save themselves, Chromedome and the other Headmasters had to disconnect from their transtectors and watch as they disappear into nothingness. {{storylink|Headmaster Chapter Prologue}} In need of new bodies, the tiny Autobots traveled to the Legends World and formed a partnership with the [[Axalon Trading Company]] for their resources. Chromedome's didn't enjoy this one bit; first he had to settle into the boring life of an office worker, and he wasn't even the first one to get a new transtector out of it! When a meteor threatened the city, he instead had to ride into battle on Hardhead's new partner drone, [[Tankette]]. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 21|Bonus Edition Vol. 21}}

When a rampaging Skullcruncher revealed that the Decepticons had also come to the Legends World, Chromedome set out with Hardhead to stop him, only to be captured by Weirdwolf, stuck inside [[Butla]] and held hostage. Though the Decepticons were driven off, Chromedome was unable to get out and had to continue working at the office in the form of Butla's dinosaur mode. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 22|Bonus Edition Vol. 22}} He was still in this form when Rattrap to him and Hardhead that the Axalon employees had gotten their own [[Master-Brace]]s. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 28|Bonus Edition Vol. 28}} Chromedome and Hardhead were out drinking after work when they encountered Weirdwolf, who was searching for his runaway transtector, and ended up fighting over his "lost dog" posters and sending them flying into a river. Weirdwolf's ensuing anger summoned [[Rarigo]], who punched Chromedome so hard he was separated from Butla. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 30|Bonus Edition Vol. 30}}

[[File:LegendsManga BonusEdition32 ChromedomeNewTranstector.jpg|thumb|upright=1.5]]
When the encroaching rival Decepticon company took over [[Metroplex (G1)|Metroplex]] near the Autobot Axalon HQ, Chromedome demanded that Fortress destroy them, calling him a coward for preferring a peaceful solution. After suddenly collapsing, Fortress revealed to Chromedome that his reason for avoiding transforming into Fortress Maximus was that the process drained his life force, and despaired that he was indeed a coward who only thought of his own safety. Regretting what he'd said, Chromedome reassured Fortress that he was the greatest commander ever and that keeping this secret to keep his troops' morale up was proof of that. When the commander next transformed into Fortress Maximus, Chromedome offered to save him by taking his place, but was told he wasn't strong enough. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 31|Bonus Edition Vol. 31}}

Encouraged by his new partner [[Moguru]], Chromedome learned to redirect his endless energy into his job and a new hobby—drawing [[w:Dōjin|dōjins]]—and eventually grew accustomed to a peaceful lifestyle. Even when he received his new transtector, he showed no interest in using it for fighting, but just wanted to use it to transport his ''[[Robopara]]'' drawings to an upcoming event. When Weirdwolf attacked the Autobot base, however, Chromedome's spirit of justice quickly resurfaced and he disregarded the event in favor of taking the Decepticon on, leaving Moguru to sell the dōjins in his place. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 32|Bonus Edition Vol. 32}} Disappointed in Highbrow for locking himself in his room and researching all the time, Chromedome tried to lure him out by stealing [[Alpha Trion (G1)|Alpha Trion]]'s [[10.2 ultra-drill|ultra-drill]] and summoning [[Papika]]. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 33|Bonus Edition Vol. 33}} Alongside everyone else, he was then temporarily hypnotized into a mindless servant of Mindwipe. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 34|Bonus Edition Vol. 34}} While partying at the [[Dancitron]], he was hypnotized ''again'' by [[Soundwave (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Soundblaster]] into attacking Twincast. He was soon cured and turned on Soundblaster, only to have his transtector transformed into an immobile "base mode" by the [[Zodiac]]. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 36|Bonus Edition Vol. 36}}

When Brainstorm arrived in the Legends Universe, Chromedome was confused to learn that he and Rattrap were already friends. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 39|Bonus Edition Vol. 39}} He defended the Autobot base when [[Astrotrain (G1)|Astrotrain]]'s [[Astroforce]] attacked, though they quickly fell to their own energy shortage. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 40|Bonus Edition Vol. 40}} Chromedome, Hardhead and Brainstorm were doing maintenance on their transtectors when three Headmasters identical to them appeared and locked them in their own vehicles. The newcomers explained that they were [[Nebulan|Nebulons]] from another universe and needed bodies to battle their own version of Scorponok, [[Zarak (G1)|Zarak]], so Chromedome and the others agreed to pilot the transtectors from their cockpits while these other Headmasters formed the heads. Their combined "Double-Headmaster" power was enough to defeat Zarak, after which Chromedome and friends said goodbye to their counterparts. {{storylink|LGEX Headmaster Set Chapter}} Chromedome later helped build a new [[Godbomber]], but was unable to prevent [[Nightbeat (G1)|Nightbeat]], [[Trickdiamond]] and [[Thrust (Armada)|Thrust]] from stealing it. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 42|Bonus Edition Vol. 42}}

When [[Scourge (RID)|Black Convoy]] and the [[Dimensional Patrol]] placed the Legends World under martial law and confiscated everyone's transtectors, Chromedome and the others resisted by converting [[Black Convoy Mass Production Type Drone|Black Convoy drones]] into Headmaster-compatible bodies and using them to fight back. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. EX (Black Convoy 2)|Bonus Edition Vol. EX}} The Autobot Headmasters confronted their Decepticon counterparts after they'd rebuilt [[Trypticon (G1)|Trypticon]], but were defeated by their creation. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 43|Bonus Edition Vol. 43}} Chromedome was seen driving on the streets of Akihabara after the city was rebuilt in the wake of Trypticon's rampage. {{storylink|Targetmaster Chapter Prologue}} After quitting his job to become a full-time manga artist, Chromedome was approached by Daniel and Sixshot, come to the Legends World to hide [[Star Saber (G1)|Star Saber]] from his enemies.

When Ultra Magnus came to arrest Star Saber, Chromedome brought him to safety while Sixshot battled their assailant. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 50|Bonus Edition Vol. 50}}

In the closing days of 2010, while significant Transformer battles were being waged on Earth and across space, Chromedome and his fellow Autobot Headmasters were active on the planet [[Master (planet)|Master]], battling their Decepticon counterparts. It seemed that their foes were able to escape them by leaping into a crevasse, but moments later, they came bursting out of the ground beneath the Autobots' feet. Chromedome and company, however, were able to use this to their advantage by sneaking away under cover of the dust cloud the villains' emergence had created. When the cloud cleared, the Decepticons realized they had been beating up each other, and were then promptly flattened as Chromedome and the Autobots ran them over in vehicle mode. The tide of battle turned suddenly with the arrival of the Decepticon ninja [[Sixshot (G1)|Sixshot]], who blasted Chromedome's team to cover the Decepticon Headmasters' escape. Informed by their leader [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|Fortress]] that the Decepticons were heading for Cybertron, Chromedome and the other Headmasters set out after them aboard Fortress's Battleship Maximus, with Chromedome particularly excited at the prospect of meeting [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]]. {{storylink|The Great Transformer War issue 3|The Great Transformer War #3}}

Shortly after Optimus Prime gave up his life to stabilize Vector Sigma, Chromedome and the Headmasters attended the unveiling of a [[Optimus Prime memorial|bronze statue]] dedicated to Prime's memory on Athenia. Chromedome spoke for the Headmasters, proclaiming Prime the greatest warrior that ever lived. The ceremony was then interrupted by the arrival of the Decepticons in Athenian space, and the Headmasters rocketed off in Battleship Maximus to intercept them. This, it turned out, was part of the Decepticons' plans, as they intended to hurl a bomb into the Maximus when the Headmasters exited it, but Chromedome moved too fast for the Decepticons, disconnecting from his Transtector and snatching the bomb out of Mindwipe's hands. {{storylink|The Headmasters issue 1|The Headmasters #1}}

Responding to an SOS from their Beastformer comrades, Chromedome and the Autobot Headmasters headed to planet Beast and split up into two teams to search. Chromedome and Hardhead had the misfortune to stumble into the clutches of [[Reprogamma|some energy-draining vines]], but were cut free by [[Kane]], the Beastformers' human ally. Kane led them to the Decepticon camp, where Brainstorm and Highbrow had been taken prisoner, and proceeded to create a distraction that allowed the two captive Autobots to break free. Kane was then pursued by the Decepticon Headmasters, but Chromedome's team followed them, and took the villains out. {{storylink|The Decisive Battle of Planet Beast!}}

Investigating news of a Decepticon attack on an energy plant in Alaska, Chromedome and the Headmasters were caught by surprise by the Decepticon Headmasters, and prevented from combining with their Transtectors. At first they were forced to flee from the Decepticons' bestial Transtectors, but soon, they were able to execute a "Southern Cross Jump" that carried them over the Decepticons' heads and allowed them to reconnect with their bodies. {{storylink|The Headmasters issue 2|The Headmasters #2}} Later, Chromedome's team went to Earth with the Trainbots to look into reports of the Decepticons stealing energy under the sea, and foiled their plan by destroying their robot squid through teamwork. {{storylink|The Headmasters issue 3|The Headmasters #3}} Unfortunately, they had less success when they tried to stop Sixshot from stealing a capsule of emergency food rations, as the Decepticon ninja disappeared in a flash of smoke. {{storylink|The Headmasters issue 4|The Headmasters #4}}

On an unknown alien world, Chromedome and Daniel discovered the legendary weapon known as the "[[Charge Arrow]]", and Chromedome felt that with its power in his hands, he could become the greatest warrior in the universe. [[Apeface]] and [[Snapdragon (G1)|Snapdragon]] then attacked, and when Chromedome attempted to use the Charge Arrow on them, he discovered he was not worthy enough to control its fabled energies. Knocked unconscious by the Horrorcons' attack, Chromedome had a vision of his Transtector telling him that he was worthy, if only he believed it. Awakening to see the two Decepticons' advancing on Daniel, Chromedome sprang into action, and, fuelled by the need to save his friend, successfully fired the Charge Arrow, frying the Horrorcons. When Daniel inquired if he regretted using up the one-shot weapon, Chromedome replied that a warrior is not defined by his weapon. {{storylink|The Headmasters issue 5|The Headmasters #5}}

Chromedome and the Headmasters were handing out Christmas presents at a Japanese children's hospital when the Decepticon Headmasters attacked.

They were suddenly attacked by the Decepticon Targetmasters, who had started the fire, and were unable to fight back because they were focused on saving lives. Once Fortress Maximus put out the fire by dumping water on it from above, however, Chromedome and his allies were freed up to turn all their firepower on the Decepticons, sending them packing. {{storylink|The Headmasters issue 7|The Headmasters #7}}

The tearful farewell was interrupted by the arrival of [[Soundwave (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Soundblaster]], who had been ordered to stay behind on the planet by Scorponok. Chromedome attempted to attack him, but Soundblaster deployed [[Slugfest (G1)|Slugfest]] and [[Overkill (G1)|Overkill]] to hold the Witwickys hostage and prevent Chromedome from making a move. It was Daniel who saved the day by leaping on Slugfest and covering his eyes, causing him to run into Overkill, and freeing up Chromedome to hurl Soundblaster over the horizon with his "Master Chrome Hurricane" technique. {{storylink|The Headmasters issue 8|The Headmasters #8}}

After the ceremony, Fortress headed back to Master, and Chromedome was left in charge of Athenia, only for the Decepticons to attack during the night. Chromedome was quick into battle, but he and [[Raiden]] were cut down by a blast from the Decepticon combiner [[Scramble 7]] even quicker. Ginrai was able to end the threat, but the battle only proved that the Decepticons on Earth had joined forces with the Decepticons in space, and so the Autobots elected to do the same to better combat their enemies. {{storylink|The Battle Begins! The Earth-Space Alliance Army}} To this end, Chromedome went to [[Earth]] to assist with the [[Godbomber|Bomber Project]]. When [[Jin (Masterforce)|Jin]] and [[Mirai]] showed up and threatened to destroy the Autobots' work, Chromedome and [[Metalhawk (G1)|Metalhawk]] sped into battle with the two, but were outclassed when Jin and Mirai performed Get On with the suddenly-appearing [[Megatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Super Megatron]].

Their initial sweep turned up nothing, [[Erector (G1)|Erector]] helped Chromedome track Magnus's signal before [[Spinister (G1)|Spinister]] and his crew of splice-thieves ambushed their ship and took the crew hostage, Chromedome pleaded with Magnus to leave the crew behind, but Magnus's code of honor wouldn't allowed and cooperated with Spinister's crew for the safety of his men. {{storylink|Storm Horizon Part 1}} As part of a conditional bargain, Spinister released Chromedome and several other members of the crew, who piloted their ship into the [[Black Sphere]] system to find Trion. Chromedome later confirmed that the signal Magnus received was Krm'zik from Koan. Chromedome then stood by with several other members of the crew as Magnus faced off against Spinister's crew, and watched as [[Victory Leo]] took on the villains after having received an emergency beacon from Chromedome. When Alpha Trion was found, he explained what happened to him via holographic transmission as he and Soundblaster requested help from a Kworian armada. {{storylink|Storm Horizon Part 2}}

Chromedome provided remote assistance for Magnus as he sought to avoid the ships and recover Alpha Trion before he fell into an event horizon. They were successful, but the time dilation that close to a black hole meant the ''Fist of Iacon'' was absent for 70 cycles, relatively speaking. In their absence, the Senate had fallen to a revolution led by Megatron. {{storylink|Storm Horizon Part 3}} They returned to Cybertron and landed at [[Crystal City]] to meet with Optimus Prime, the former Senator Orion Pax and last-standing official representative of the legally elected government. {{storylink|Lord of Misrule: Test Flight I|Test Flight I}} Those who opposed Megatron united under the Autobot faction, and Chromedome was seen accepting the Autobrand at a mass ceremony. {{storylink|Lord of Misrule: Sea of Rust I|Sea of Rust I}}

*Chromedome was among several Transformers who left the war on Cybertron behind, to blast their way to the distant planet [[Nebulos|Nebulon]]! After arriving on the alien world with the other Autobots and surrendering to the native Nebulons, he removed his head (see [[#Notes|notes]]) and allowed one to fuse with it. {{storylink|Commercial/Generation 1#Headmaster comic book|Headmaster comic book commercial}}
*Stylor boarded Chromedome, and along with the other Headmasters, they sped out of their hangar onto a roadway, where the Decepticon Headmasters were running straight for them.

When the Decepticons kidnapped his fellow Autobots, Chromedome was left alone to rescue his teammates and stand against the forces of evil. He fought his way through many foes on three separate planets, rescuing [[Hardhead (G1)|Hardhead]], [[Brainstorm (G1)|Brainstorm]], [[Highbrow (G1)|Highbrow]], and [[Hot Rod (G1)|Rodimus Prime]] before they all joined [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|Fortress Maximus]] in the finale battle against [[Scorponok (G1)|Scorponok]]. {{storylink|Transformers: The Headmasters (video game)|Transformers: The Headmasters}}

As the Decepticons searched a recently unearthed dig site for the [[Jewel of Mystery]], they were confronted by Chromedome. Chromedome was soon defeated by the Decepticons, but taunted them with the knowledge that they couldn't proceed further without the proper key.

Later, at [[ELTA]], Chromedome and [[Brainstorm (G1)|Brainstorm]] joined forces to battle the Decepticons again, to no avail. {{storylink|The Transformers (PS2)|The Transformers}}

When the Decepticons aimed to get hold of the [[Key to the Plasma Energy Chamber]], Chromedome and his fellow Headmasters made off with it but soon crashed on Earth.

:''[[The Transformers (toyline)|The Transformers]]'' Chromedome transforms into a brown, cream, and red Cybertronic sports car. He is armed with two non-firing laser rifles which mount on his roof in [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]], although the rifles must be removed in order to open the figure's hinged cockpit, in which his Headmaster partner Stylor can sit.

:In [[robot mode]], like all Headmasters, Chromedome features a flip-down panel on his chest that covers a mini [[Tech Spec]] meter displaying ratings for Speed, Strength and Intelligence. The tumblers of this meter are activated when Stylor is transformed into head mode and inserted into Chromedome's neck socket. Chromedome's body can accommodate other Headmaster heads, and his meter will display different stats accordingly. As with [[Hardhead (G1)#Generation 1|Hardhead]], Chromedome is surprisingly tall in robot mode due to how he transforms, coming in roughly 5mm shorter than Hardhead and well over a full head taller than [[Highbrow (G1)#Toys|Highbrow]] and [[Brainstorm (G1)#Toys|Brainstorm]].

:A [[redeco]] of Chromedome as [[Arcee (G1)/toys#HeadmasterConcept|Arcee]] was proposed during Generation 1, but never produced.

:The ''Transform Jr'' version of Chromedome simplifies the original toy. The [[transformation]] scheme remains the same, but Chromedome's cockpit no longer opens, so his Headmaster unit has nowhere to store. Additionally, the Headmaster unit does not really ''transform'' into a head; you simply remove its legs and set them aside. Chromedome's [[Tech Spec]] meter lacks the functionality of the larger toy, featuring only a permanent, non-moving readout, and he also has only one gun instead of two. But on the very cool plus side, his hood is now made of [[die-cast]] metal!

:Part of the second wave of ''[[Titans Return (toyline)|Titans Return]]'' Deluxe Class toys, Chromedome transforms from a robot (based on [[:File:MTMTE9 early Chromedome.jpg|his appearance]] in the IDW comic storyline "[[Shadowplay, Part 1: Post Hoc|Shadowplay]]") to futuristic car and back. Chromedome's head can transform into the [[Titan Master]] [[Stylor#Generations|Stylor]], who can either drive Chromedome in vehicle mode or pilot Chromedome's larger weapon, which can also attach via tabs to the roof of the vehicle mode. The toy shares some engineering with [[Dead End (G1)#Combiner Wars|''Combiner Wars'' Dead End]] while not actually sharing any parts. It ''does'' reuse several parts from ''Titans Return'' [[Blurr (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Blurr]], including the thighs and kneepads, smaller rifle, and the Titan Master's robot mode. Stylor's deco changed from the early renders—the final figure had his tiny head changed to solid, unpainted red with an undecorated dark brown chest.

:Chromedome was retooled with a new head into [[Getaway#Generations|''Titans Return'' Breakaway]]. Chromedome's packaging art and trading card show him with Breakaway's headsculpt, probably the result of the artist being sent incorrect reference material.

*In the television [[commercial]] for [[Marvel Comics]]' ''[[The Transformers: Headmasters|Headmasters]]'' limited series, the Autobot and Decepticon Headmasters are shown having different head designs than the ones their Nebulan partners would later turn into. These designs were seemingly never used in any other piece of ''Transformers'' media. The models for most of them, however, turned up in the ''[[Transformers Generations (guidebook)|Transformers Generations]]'' guidebook.
*Like nearly any other cameo Kreons, there is the heavy urge to use existing Kre-O parts. In this case, Chromedome utilities the [[Soundwave (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Soundwave]] helmet (though partly modified to match the original's head), and two red pistols.

'''Rapido''' (aka '''Racemaster''') outranks you. He outranks everybody. Even [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]], even though he humbly retains the job of "Platoon Commander" of the [[Axelerator]]s.

Suave, unflappable and endlessly clever, Rapido uses his tactical genius and incredible land-speed to bring the Autobots ever closer to final victory over the [[Decepticon]]s. His plans are amazingly complex, plotted down to the smallest detail. Even when things are rough, he keeps his cool and works out a plan to turn things around again.

[[File:RapidoPowers.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.1|He once held the Matrix, only to give it back.]]
'''Rapido Depressa''' was created in one of [[Earth]]'s [[Cyberfactory|Cyberfactories]] as part of a new generation; specifically, he was "born" in [[Madrid]], [[Spain]] in [[1993]]. He spent some time in international racing before a new Decepticon threat called him to combat duty. {{storylink|Rapido#Timelines|BotCon Rapido's bio card}}

During a battle outside of the [[Large Hadron Collider]] in [[Switzerland]], Rapido ordered a fall back after [[Pyro (G1)|Pyro]] was captured. Minutes later, when [[Scorch (G1)|Scorch]] and [[Streetwise (G1)|Streetwise]] tried to take over, Rapido balked at being treated like a child, despite only being a minor in [[Earth]] years. When Scorch objected to his formulating a rescue plan, Rapido reminded him that he technically outranked all Autobots on [[Earth]] in emergency situation, as authorized by [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] himself.

Eventually the Autobots went on the counterattack to stop the Decepticons from seizing the power of the Collider and to save Pyro. While most the Autobots kept the Decepticons busy, Rapido took [[Meanstreak]] and Streetwise to the back entrance. While his low-yield photo missiles were unable to crack the door, Streetwise's knock caused it to tumble. Once inside they met with a duo of [[Sharkticon (species)|Sharkticon]] guards and attempted to use the [[universal greeting]] to quell them. When this proved fruitless, Rapido transformed and crashed the guards through the door they were guarding, right into the room where Pyro was being held!

[[File:CommonFoe-Nightracer.jpg|thumb|upright=1.6|He is the life of parties that he has never attended.]]
The rescue team began getting pummeled by the [[Forestonite]]-infused Decepticons. Rapido shot his missiles to free Pyro, evening the odds a little. When [[Breakdown (G1)|Breakdown]] saw this, he shot the rest of the Forestonite, resulting in its gaseous form filling the building and powering up all the [[Transformer]]s within. Rapido found he now had the power of super speed, and used it to outrun [[Sky-Byte (RID)|Sky-Byte's]] missiles, leading them into the main skirmish and having them hit [[Cindersaur (G1)|Cindersaur]] instead. When the Decepticons retreated, Rapido attended to the humans and later enjoyed a drink of energon. {{storylink|Generation 2: Redux}}

He, Pyro and [[Sizzle (G1)|Sizzle]] were briefed by [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ultra Magnus]] on a break-in at [[Quantum Laboratories]], and given the task of finding whoever was responsible. {{storylink|A Flash Forward, Part 2}}

During [[Jhiaxus (G2)|Jhiaxus]]’s invasion of Cybertron, Rapido stood by at the ready as part of a joint team of Autobots and Decepticons, awaiting Obsidian’s signal for their time to fight back. Once the signal came, they teleported to Cybertron and started beating on some drones. [[Eagle Eye (G2)|Eagle Eye]] soon spotted Jhiaxus on the battlefield, and so Rapido provided [[Serpentor]], [[Krok (G1)|Krok]] and [[Nacelle (G1)|Nacelle]] some cover fire while they found a way to Jhiaxus’s coordinates. After the joint Autobot-Decepticon army had defeated Jhiaxus’s army, Rapido was present at the signing of the [[Pax Cybertronia]]. {{storylink|A Common Foe}}

A young Autobot created on Earth, "'''Racemaster'''" (レースマスター ''Rēsumasutā'') was trained by [[Hot Rod (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|a previous Autobot commander]] while stationed in Spain. He was assigned a set of specialized Drones as part of the [[Power Core Combiners]] program, and sent on a transport mission, where he began to chafe under having to maintain the highway speed limit. He began to wonder what had happened to the missing [[Blaze Master|Choppermaster]], and quickly realized that if the Decepticons ''had'' gotten their hands on his comrade's Drones, odds were he was the next target.

His flash of insight saved him from a hail of missiles launched by [[Onslaught (G1)|Combatmaster]], who had set up the purloined Drones along the road in an ambush. Combatmaster demanded the surrender of the Autobot Drones, but a sudden burst of super-speed from both Racemaster and his convoy had them quickly and safely beyond the Decepticon's range. {{storylink|Weapons of a New Generation}}

After [[Manta Ray (G2)|Marinemaster]] discovered the location of the Decepticons' hideout, Racemaster and the other Autobots launched an attack on the enemy base. Arriving at the cavern housing their enemies, Racemaster struck first against the base's guard, Combatmaster. The Decepticon dodged his attack and retaliated, leading into an intense battle as more combatants joined both sides of the conflict. {{storylink|Hope for the Next Generation}} {{storylink|Unearthed Future}}

Racemaster would eventually return to being Rapido. During the peace of the [[Cybertron Alliance]], Rapido watched as [[Blaster (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Blaster]] was reunited with [[Flip Sides (G1)|Flip Sides]]. {{Storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. EX (Metroplex)|Bonus Edition Metroplex}}

Twenty-odd years after the end of hostilities between the Autobots and the Decepticons, Rapido fell victim to [[Scorponok (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Scorponok]]'s [[Gene Key]]. {{storylink|Natural Selection, Part Three}}

Later, Rapido was part of a small unit [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Ultra Magnus]] put together to hunt down the wounded [[Galvatron II|Galvatron]]. While they succeeded in finding the crazed [[time travel]]ling Decepticon, he wasn't one to go down without a fight, taking out [[Skram (G2)|Skram]] with a single blast. Rapido expressed frustration about Skram's glory-hound tendencies, but the group was suddenly attacked by the [[Acolyte of Unicron|Acolytes of Unicron]]. Rapido opened fire on them with his pistol, but in the confusion Galvatron was evacuated by the Acolytes. {{storylink|The War to End All Wars, Part 1}}

Racemaster was a [[Velocitron]]ian racer who participated in the [[Benefit 500]] alongside [[Blurr (G1)|Blurr]] (who found his name uninspired). He introduced Blurr to the ruthlessness of Velocitronian racing by using hidden blades on his car mode to cut the "newbie", but nevertheless lost when ramps suddenly started springing up in the racing circuit, blocking all racers but Blurr who used them to jump to the goal. {{storylink|Race Against the Light}}

{{toydesigner|[[Takio Ejima]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:''[[The Transformers (European toyline)|The Transformers]]'' Rapido transforms into a somewhat abstracted [http://www.supercars.net/cars/4759.html Peugeot Quasar] concept car. His chrome-silver, rear-mounted engine block becomes his robot-mode blaster weapon. Rapido's toy is primarily distinguished by his head being too recessed actually to see over his robot mode chest. It is also [[gang-molding|gang-molded]] with [[Turbofire#Toys|Turbofire]].

:He was initially released in the European market in 1993, during the transitional time when the Transformers toys took on the new ''Generation 2'' sigils, but the packaging lacked the "''Generation 2''" line-name.

===''Generation 2''===

**''Accessories'': Engine-block rifle

:Released concurrently with the European "Generation 1" Rapido, the U.S. ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' version is almost identical to the European toy, save the pink clear-plastic being replaced with smoky-black. Rapido was re-released in the European ''Generation 2'' line the following year, retaining his clear-pink plastics.

:This mold was planned by Takara for use as [[Rapid Engine]] in the ''[[Block Town]]'' line, but that release was scrapped.

He features twin non-removable and non-firing "rocket launchers" that can swing over his robot-mode shoulders. His fold-out rifle stores in the car mode's undersides. He was available only in an at-show souvenir set with [[Cindersaur (G1)#Timelines|Cindersaur]], limited to 1500 pieces.

:This mold was also used to make ''Universe'' [[Prowl (G1)/toys#Universe (2008)|Prowl]] and [[Smokescreen (G1)#Universe (2008)|Smokescreen]], as well as fellow BotCon 2010 exclusive ''[[Transformers Timelines (franchise)|Timelines]]'' [[Streetwise (G1)#Timelines|Streetstar]].

:Racemaster is a [[redeco]] of the ''[[Power Core Combiners]]'' [[Double Clutch (PCC)|Double Clutch]] toy, transforming into a muscle car of undetermined model. He also has a "Prime Mode" where he becomes the torso of a super robot, capable of using any auto-transforming Power Core Combiner drone-machine molds for limbs.

:He comes with four color-coordinated automobile drone-limbs, redecoes of the [[Rallybot]]s. Each one has a square socket for a Power Core Combiner connection; when attached via the blue plugs on a Commander figure, the vehicles automatically transform into a super-robot limb, and snaps back to vehicle mode when disconnected. Each drone also has a fold-out [[Mini-Con]] [[Powerlinx]] plug. Despite the universal connector, each drone can only form one limb type (but can be swapped from left to right):

:*'''[[Depressa Drone]]''' [Street Racer]—Leg (Racemaster's left)

:The drones are named after Rapido's name if translated in German, French, Portuguese & English.

==Notes==
[[File:G2-art RapidoUK.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|I don't always download beer. But when I do, I prefer DOS EXEs.]]
*"Rapido" means "rapid" or "fast" in Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese.
*Like all of the toys carried over from the European line for ''Generation 2'', Rapido got entirely new artwork for his U.S. release (shown at the top of this article). His original artwork was considerably less scary than that of his fellow Axelerators.
*''Unlike'' most of the toys carried over from the European line for ''Generation 2'', the United States releases of the "Small Cars" kept the mottos and bios of the 1993 European Axelerators mostly unchanged, though the European 1994 ''Generation 2'' releases omitted the bios and only featured the mottos in [[multilingual packaging|multiple languages]]. Rapido even got to keep his name for the American release!
*Regarding him outranking "everybody"... that's a slight exaggeration, but not by much. In the 1993 U.S. line, only Rapido and [[Grimlock (G1)|Grimlock]] had a "10" Rank in their [[Tech Spec]]s; [http://www.tfu.info/1993/Autobot/OptimusPrime/optimusprime.htm the Optimus Prime toy released that year had a mere "9"]. [[Speedstream]] also had a 10, but as he was never released in the U.S., few fans knew about it back then and thus the [[Aquaspeeder]] leader got to miss out on the joke.
*Though Rapido was never released in Japan, he did gain a Japanese name via a [[BotCon Japan 1997]] [[exclusive]] [http://www.botconarchives.com/archive/1997j/bcj97post2f.jpg poster], which featured bios for all of the new ''Generation 2'' characters released in the U.S. who weren't part of the Japanese line: the Axelerators, the [[Skyscorcher]]s, [[Rotor Force]], four of the [[Go-Bot (G2)|Go-Bots]], and the [[Color Changer]]s.
*For BotCon 2010, his character was based somewhat on "{{w|The Most Interesting Man in the World}}" from the Dos Equis beer commercials. His bio card from the convention was written entirely in Spanish, because this was an awesome thing to do. After the convention, [[Fun Publications]] put up [http://www.botconarchives.com/BotCon10/images10/RAPIDO10english.jpg an English version]. His dialogue throughout "Generation 2: Redux" and "A Common Foe" is peppered with European Spanish words and phrases, a trait carried over into his ''United EX'' incarnation.
*The names of the Drones for his ''United EX'' incarnation are all European-language words meaning "fast".

[[File:ROTF_BruticusMaximus_boxart.jpg|thumb|upright=1.7|I know I'm the same toy as before, but ''please'' buy me again. I'm so lonely.]]

'''Bruticus Maximus''' is the terrible and mighty combination of the five [[Combaticon (ROTF)|Combaticons]]. One of the strongest Decepticons ever constructed, he can blow away [[Autobots]] with his fireblast and sheer brute force, filled with the courage to slaughter his opponents unflinchingly. On the downside, he's also both dumb and slow, carrying a considerably low rank for someone of his stature and potential. But, this doesn't change the fact that few can stand up to his strength and nigh-impenetrable armor.<ref>An amalgam of Bruticus Maximus' [[Tech Spec]]s and [[bio]].</ref> He is made up of:

*[[Onslaught (ROTF)|Onslaught]]
*[[Brawl (Movie)|Brawl]]
*[[Blast Off (ROTF)|Blast Off]]
*[[Swindle (ROTF)|Swindle]]
*[[Vortex (Movie)|Vortex]]

*'''Bruticus Maximus''' ([[2009]])

:Bruticus Maximus is a [[redeco]] of the ''[[Transformers: Energon (franchise)|Energon]]'' [[Bruticus Maximus (Energon)|Bruticus Maximus]]/[[Destruction Team]] toys. He is composed of his five team members, with [[Onslaught (ROTF)|Onslaught]] forming his central body component while universal connection points allow the other four to serve as any arm or leg (with their [[Energon weapon]]s forming hands and/or feet). He can also swap limbs with any other ''Energon'' combiner team molds. Bruticus Maximus was [[exclusive]]ly available at [[Target]] stores in the USA and at Zellers stores in Canada, and his components were not available separately, only in a combiner five-pack.

:Like [[Superion (ROTF)|Superion]], this toy was originally intended to be released as part of the 2008 ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 franchise)|Universe]]'' line as [[The Transformers (franchise)|Generation 1]] [[Bruticus (G1)|Bruticus Maximus]], but was ultimately only released in ''Universe'' packaging on non-US markets such as Singapore and Australia, whereas the USA and Canada got the toy in ''Revenge of the Fallen'' packaging instead. It would later on be redecoed into ''[[Transformers United|United]]'' [[Bruticus (G1)#United|Bruticus Maximus]]

::*''[http://www.tfu.info/2009/Decepticon/TargetBruticusMaximus/bruticusmaximus.htm More information on Bruticus Maximus at TFU.info]''
{{-}}

==Notes==
*According to the instructions and packaging photos, Blast Off forms Bruticus Maximus's right arm, Vortex forms his left arm, Swindle forms his right leg, and Brawl forms his left leg. However, the layout of the figures in the packaging moves all his limbs one position counterclockwise (as seen from the front). Because his limbs are all interchangeable, you can have it either way! Or neither way!

Transformers: Legacy

2023-02-11T02:13:58Z

Shoutsuo: the coming soon thing on japanese velocitron states now that basically the second half of figures hasn't released yet in japan

{{disambig3|Legacy}}
{{nav-Legacy}}
[[File:TF-Legacy-main-artwork.jpg|thumb|380px|We did it. We put the "s" in ''Generations''.]]
'''''Transformers: Legacy''''' (aka '''''Transformers Generations: Legacy''''')<ref>The official in-house title of the toyline is "'''''Transformers Generations: Legacy'''''", which is often used in online product descriptions given to retailers. The name used for the line's logo, however; is just "'''''Transformers: Legacy'''''".</ref> is a [[subline imprint]] of the ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' toyline, and the successor to the ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy (toyline)|War for Cybertron Trilogy]]''.

First revealed in late [[2021]] at [[Hasbro Pulse Con 2021]], ''Legacy'' commemorates the approaching 40th anniversary of the [[Transformers brand|''Transformers'' brand]] by featuring new toys of characters from across the ''Transformers'' [[multiverse]]. The toys are largely in the [[scale]] and style of those from the ''War for Cybertron Trilogy'', including numerous 3 mm posts and [[5 mm post|5 mm ports]] from the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]]. Non-"[[The Transformers (franchise)|Generation 1]]" characters are updated with a ''Generations'' aesthetic to fit with the rest of the toyline, most evident with the toys based on ''[[Transformers: Prime (franchise)|Prime]]''. The toyline also sees the return of [[combiner]]s from Hasbro for the first time since ''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'', starting with the [[Stunticon (G1)#Legacy|Stunticons]] in [[2022]].

The storytelling of ''Legacy'' follows characters brought together from across the [[multiverse]] as their universes collide.<ref name="Facebook"/> As such, non-"Generation 1" characters are given prefixes associated with their series of origin, such as "[[Transformers: Cybertron (franchise)|Cybertron Universe]]". Replacing the package [[bio]]s of old is a QR code on the back of each box, or for Core Class figures, on the instructions, which leads to the character's bio on the ''Transformers'' website. Certain characters have also been given these prefixes to denote specific iterations, such as [[Impactor (G1)#Marvel Comics continuity|"Comic Universe" Impactor]].

Similar to its predecessor, the toyline features re-releases from previous lines, even all the way back to ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege|Siege]]'', though ''Legacy'' elects to remove the battle damage [[paint operation|paint applications]] from these toys where applicable.

==Toys==
===Year 1 (2022)===
The first year of ''Legacy'' focuses on characters that can "harness the power of [[Energon]]" as each toy includes an "[[Energon weapon#Legacy|Energon-infused weapon]]":<ref name="Facebook">Pre-reveal of ''Legacy'' on the ''Transformers'' [https://www.facebook.com/transformers/posts/6219021398168002 Facebook]: "Celebrating an almost 40-year legacy of Transformers, universes collide as fan-favorite characters are brought together from across the multiverse, updated with Generations styling. You can harness the power of Energon, with all-new Energon-infused weapon accessories that come with figures across the line."</ref> an often translucent accessory that the figure can wield in multiple ways and combine with others, not too dissimilar to the [[2003]] ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]'' series. In keeping with this theme, the first wave of Core Class includes weapons specifically designed to combine into a large sword, but is subsequently dropped in later waves. Moreover, toys that do not utilize clear plastic in any part of their construction do not have these "energon infused" weapons, but some product descriptions do claim that the weapons are.<ref>Tarantula's product description says that he comes with a crossbow and an ''sic'' accessory, but Armada Starscream's product description claims that he comes with an energon sword despite both swords being casted in solid plastic.</ref> The random nature of the weapons can be chalked up to the weapons being designed before the roster was finalized. [[Emiliano Santalucia]] was responsible for the concept art.<ref>Then you will actually see the concept art Emiliano Santalucia drew up even before we had the rollout of characters planned for the year. I think this will provide great insight for all yall as alot of the planning for weapon combinations was to obviously utilize our 5mm peg across all scales but this was all sold in before character selects were figured out. -[https://www.instagram.com/p/CfEo07gO0H7/ Mark Maher on Legacy Energon weapons, 2022/6/21]</ref>

These toys have been revealed by Hasbro as upcoming ''Legacy Evolution'' product, but only as far as "we're making a toy of this character". Actual details about the toys, namely size class and what wave they're in, has not yet been verified.

==Exclusives==
====Store exclusives====
Please note that the exclusivity listed for toys below applies to the United States. The ''[[Buzzworthy Bumblebee]]'' line is exclusive to [[Target]] (in the U.S.). Following on the ''[[War for Cybertron: Kingdom|Kingdom]]'' ''Golden Disk Collection'', the '''''Wreck N' Rule Collection''''' focuses on the [[Wreckers]] and their new [[F.O.S.S.I.L. Technology|Fossilizer]] recruits throughout the multiverse. Much like its predecessor, the toys are exclusive to [[Amazon]] (in the U.S.) and were revealed daily over the course of a week from [[May 9]] to [[May 13]], 2022. Each entry features an in-depth bio, package art that is part of a large battle scene over a statue of [[Xaaron]], and a piece of a large cardboard display.

Also, most of ''Legacy''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s exclusives were available through [[Hasbro Pulse]] as well, but in much smaller numbers than their "main" outlets.

The first assortment was revealed on the [[June 23]] [[Hasbro Pulse#Fan First Friday|Fanstream]], and the toys are exclusive to [[Walmart]] in the US and the Farmers department store in New Zealand.

==''Legacy'' (TakaraTomy)==
[[File:TF-Legacy-Japan-Logo.png|center|300px]]
[[TakaraTomy]]'s ''Transformers Legacy'' (トランスフォーマーレガシー ''Toransufōmā Regashī'') toyline features no notable differences from Hasbro's edition of the toyline at the time of writing, with the exception of [[List of Japanese ID numbers|ID numbers]] for each released figure (sadly, Hasbro's ''Legacy'' toyline ditches the number system seen in the previous ''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' toyline) and the omission of all Core class and package refresh figures. Beginning with Wave 9 (corresponding to Hasbro's ''Evolution'' imprint), TakaraTomy's bios began making reference to the characters' arrival in "[[Legacy World]]," presumably the same enigmatic location featured extensively throughout Hasbro promotional images and stock photography.
{{--}}

===Comic===
TakaraTomy's iteration of the ''Legacy'' franchise is accompanied by a series of (very) short comics on their website by brand veteran [[Hayato Sakamoto]], thus far uncharacteristically continuity-light for a TakaraTomy outing as befitting ''Legacy'''s grab-bag approach:

==Notes==
*Prior to the toyline's reveal in October 2021, much of its roster was found through internal online listings from retailers such as [[Target]].
*Some toy listings featured "Evolution" as part of the toyline's name in its first year,<ref>[https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/181712 BigBadToyStore] listing : "Transformers Generations Legacy Evolution Voyager Wave 1 Set of 2 Figures" (outdated, "Evolution" has since been removed)</ref> far before the ''Evolution'' branding was officially introduced.
*Much like 2022's ''[[Studio Series]]'' lineup, Leader Class toys feature window-less packaging, which allows for expanded [[package art|artwork]]. The others largely utilize the same minimized window and plastic tray-less boxes from the previous line, ''[[War for Cybertron: Kingdom]]'', though with many hard-to-stack (but cool!) angles for the sides and no plastic window.
**The lack of a plastic window in the packaging has led to several drawbacks, most prominently the lack of support offered by the plastic window makes the packaging more susceptible to stress-based wear-and-tear, as well as tampering with the figures inside such as pushing Voyager Bulkhead's head into his chest cavity, making it appear as though the figure is missing his head.
*A ''Legacy'' animated series, conceptualized as a sequel to the ''[[Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy (cartoon)|War for Cybertron Trilogy]]'' cartoon, was in the discussion stage at one point, but [[Netflix]] passed on the pitch,<ref>{{twitter|Per FJ DeSanto: they had a series for Transformers Legacy planned out, but Netflix passed on it. #TFconLA|https://twitter.com/MikeSibertRadio/status/1502847896458170375|Mike Seibert|2022|03|12}}</ref> as it didn't fit with Netflix's mandates at the time. Hasbro chose not to shop it to other platforms or services, as they wanted to maintain their good relationship with the streaming giant.<ref>{{twitter|To be clear Mike even though i may have said it, Netflix didn't "hate" the pitch, in fact they liked it. But their mandates had changed and what we were proposing didn't fit that. Hasbro didn't want to shop it elsewhere cause they want to keep their relationship w Netflix.|https://twitter.com/_TradeSecrets/status/1503087301445836800|F.J. DeSanto's|2022|03|13}}</ref> The show was intended to be much lighter in tone than ''War For Cybertron'', and would have been set centuries after the events of ''Kingdom''.<ref>{{twitter|Also the show was a dramatic change from WFC as it was lighter and more colorful as it was set centuries after WFC and would emphasize the fun of everything. See how colorful the legacy packaging is and you'll get the idea.|https://twitter.com/_TradeSecrets/status/1503087741914939392|F.J. DeSanto|2022|03|13}}</ref>
*The universes currently featured in the ''Legacy'' toyline are the "[[Diaclone|Diaclone Universe]]", "[[Comics|Comic Universe]]", "[[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers (franchise)#Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Victory|Victory Universe]]", "[[Transformers: Generation 2 (franchise)|G2 Universe]]", "[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 franchise)|Robots in Disguise 2000 Universe]]", "[[Transformers: Armada (franchise)|Armada Universe]]", "[[Transformers: Cybertron (franchise)|Cybertron Universe]]", and "[[Transformers: Prime (franchise)|Prime Universe]]". The QR-accessed bios on Hasbro's website add "[[The Transformers (franchise)|G1]]" and "[[Beast Wars: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Wars]]" origin universes into the mix, though these names do not appear on the toys' boxes. Strangely, the ''Diaclone''-adjacent items in the ''Generations Selects'' and ''Buzzworthy Bumblebee'' lineups are not given the "Diaclone Universe" label.
*In titling universes, ''Legacy'' splits the difference in terms of release years, leaning towards their Japanese release in particular. This is why the "Robots in Disguise 2000 Universe" isn't "Robots in Disguise ''2001'' Universe", as the Japanese release ''Car Robots'' did release in 2000. Likewise, 2003 is considered the anniversary year for ''Armada'', despite it arriving in some countries in late 2002.
*Due to the polarizing reception to the G1-fied redesigns of ''Prime'' characters, Hasbro is currently finding a better balance between preserving the original designs whilst updating them for the current aesthetic for ''[[Animated]]'' updates,<ref>"Q: For Legacy Animated stuff, would they be in the original style or more G1-ified like the TFP toys? A: The latter, however they have heard the stylization feedback about the TFP figures, so they are working on trying to find a better balance regarding G1-ification."—[https://news.tfw2005.com/2022/07/25/sdcc-hasbro-kotobukiya-show-floor-qa-461912 TFW2005 asking Hasbro about Animated updates in Legacy]</ref> and has not ruled out on ''[[Studio Series]]'' for more accurate redos of ''Prime'' characters.<ref>"Q: Could we also see more accurate versions of them and the TFP characters in Studio Series though? A: Entirely possible, they’re talking about expanding Studio Series beyond movies."—[https://news.tfw2005.com/2022/07/25/sdcc-hasbro-kotobukiya-show-floor-qa-461912 TFW2005 asking Hasbro about more accurate redos of Prime characters]</ref>
*The original listings included a lot of entries titled "[[Energon|Energon]] Monster". As per Hasbro designer Mark Maher's Instagram post, these [[Fossilizer]] / [[Weaponizer]] style Core and Deluxe toys were dropped eventually, and last minute the [[Pretenders]] were approved to fill in these empty slots. Hence the different size classes between Skullgrin, Bomb-Burst and Iguanus. <ref>Mark Maher - Instagram[https://www.instagram.com/p/ChXxl3gumjK/?igshid=MDJmNzVkMjY=]</ref>

'''Bruticus Maximus''' is one of four ancient [[Combiner]] robots chosen to guard the [[Super Energon]] pools deep within [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]. He and his peers were awakened from countless years of stasis by [[Megatron (Armada)|Megatron]] when [[Superion Maximus|Superion Maximus's]] [[Dauntless Maximus|brother]] was destroyed by the Decepticon leader.

He and his friend [[Constructicon Maximus]] are quite willing to abandon their duty to follow a strong leader whom they believe represent Cybertron's future, a Decepticon-dominated future. Bruticus is generally calmer and more agreeable than Constructicon.

He is the combined form of the [[Destruction Team]]:

{{voiceactor|[[Trevor Devall]] (English), [[Makoto Yasumura]] (Japanese)|[[Fredrik Beckmann]] (Swedish), [[Jari Salo]] (Finnish), [[Davide Marzi]] (Italian), [[Eugenio Barona]] (Castilian Spanish)}}

When Megatron destroyed [[Superion Maximus]]'s brother, he unlocked the living seal on the [[Super Energon]] pool and awakened the remaining Combiners. While Superion Maximus was aghast at his brother's destruction, the Decepticon combiners were merely curious about who had managed to reactivate them. Megatron declared that the Super Energon was his and that he was master of all Decepticons. {{storylink|Ambition}}

Bruticus Maximus voiced what an honor it was to now serve under a strong leader like Megatron. He quickly reinterpreted their mission to protect the Super Energon into protecting <s>Megatron</s> Galvatron, and even declared Superion Maximus a traitor to the cause for not bowing before their new master. Superion confronted the two Decepticons, reminding them that they'd protected the Super Energon together for millions of years, and asking them why they had let one Transformer have control of it all. Bruticus Maximus and Constructicon Maximus merely replied that Galvatron was their master now, and that he represented the future of Cybertron. {{storylink|Wishes}} Later, the combiners flew to the ''[[Miranda II]]'' to battle Superion Maximus and his new Autobot comrades, and Bruticus was pulled into a duel with [[Omega Supreme (Energon)|Omega Supreme]]. {{storylink|Galvatron!}}

[[File:Energon Decepticon Combiners.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.1]]
When [[Six Shot (Energon)|Six Shot]] pinpointed an Autobot signal on the planet's surface, Galvatron sent Constructicon Maximus and Bruticus Maximus out to investigate. They arrived at the crash site of the ''Miranda II'' and drew out the Autobots who were in hiding. The Combiners toyed with the drastically weaker enemy until [[Kicker Jones|Kicker]], [[Arcee (Energon)|Arcee]] and the [[Omnicon]]s arrived to tip the scales. As the Autobots took the opportunity to escape, Bruticus Maximus followed Kicker in his helicopter modes, hunting down the Omnicons as they attempted to shut off the energon cloud blocking the Autobots from returning to Cybertron. The Decepticons ultimately failed, and Bruticus Maximus was driven off with the others when [[Optimus Prime (Armada)|Optimus Prime]], Omega Supreme and the Autobots broke through a hole in the gas. {{storylink|Break Through}}

[[File:Bruticusmaximushanddrawn.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1]]
Bruticus and Constructicon were given a ''virtual'' chance to even the score against Superion in an Autobot training simulation. They triumphed over Superion Maximus two-against-one, but were pounded into the mat by their next opponent, Optimus Supreme. {{storylink|Distribution}}

[[File:E44 steam ahead.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.1]]
Back in reality, the Combiners followed Optimus Prime and his Autobots on their way to rendezvous with [[Wing Saber (Energon)|Wing Saber]]'s underground resistance. {{storylink|The Omega Train}} As the battle continued out onto the surface, Bruticus Maximus was present to serve his leader, Galvatron. {{storylink|Decepticon Army}} The fight with the Autobots carried over the planet, until Bruticus Maximus and the other Decepticons successfully cornered Optimus Prime and the other leaders of the Autobots in a box canyon. Things looked grim, until [[Primus]] awoke and remotely super-charged Prime's Combination Spark, making him strong enough to combine again with Omega to form Optimus Supreme. Bruticus Maximus was then taken out by Optimus Supreme's daring new pirouette maneuver...or something. {{storylink|Ironhide Team}} He recovered as the Autobots attempted to remove the energon gas from Cybertron's surface. {{storylink|Formidable}}

Bruticus Maximus was later attacked by [[Rodimus (Energon)|Powerlinx Rodimus]] just before Galvatron fully immersed himself in the Super Energon pool for a second time. {{storylink|Galvatron Terror}} He continued the fight with the Autobots on Cybertron as Galvatron began to grow to the size of Unicron. {{storylink|Destructive Power}}

[[File:Superionmaximus kills bruticus.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|Ever walk a mile in another man's limbs?]]
Bruticus Maximus eventually paid for his treachery when a vengeful Superion Maximus attacked both Decepticon combiners. Surprised by the Autobot combiner's ferocity, both Decepticons were caught off-guard at first, until they over-confidently held him down, which proved to be their downfall. Superion launched all of his limbs at Constructicon Maximus, pinning him against a wall, as Superion's central component [[Storm Jet (Energon)|Storm Jet]] crushed the Decepticon combiner's spark, killing him.

Angered, Bruticus Maximus destroyed Superion's limbs, then began crushing him. Just as it seemed hopeless, a ghost-like entity appeared and shot off Bruticus' arm, freeing Superion. It was an apparition of Superion's older brother. Superion Maximus powerlinked with the dead Constructicon Maximus' limbs and attacked the confused Bruticus, piercing his spark, and causing a massive explosion which destroyed the remaining Decepticon. {{storylink|Spark (episode)|Spark}}

:In Japan, the entire team was only available in a single gift-set, with slight color variations to each individual. They kept the names of the original Generation 1 Combaticons as opposed to the new names the ''Energon'' figures had. One of the most notable color variations is that [[Blight (Energon)|Blight]] is less of a neon yellow and more of a dark spring-green color.

:Bruticus Maximus is composed of his five team members, with Barricade forming his central body component. His limbs' [[Energon weapon]]s form his hands and feet. Similarly to [[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1]]'s [[Scramble City (toyline)|Scramble City]]-style combiner teams, Bruticus Maximus (as well as Superion Maximus and Constructicon Maximus) feature universal connection points for the limbs, allowing many different combinations and even swapping of limbs from different teams.

:Only Barricade, Kickback and Stormcloud were initially released in 2004 for the North American, Asian and Australasian markets, with Blackout and Blight released later in 2005 and even 2006. This unfortunately led to many consumers having an incomplete Bruticus Maximus for many months.

:The molds were later used for the ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'' (2008) [[Bruticus (G1)#G1 Series|Bruticus Maximus]], ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' [[Bruticus Maximus (ROTF)|Bruticus Maximus]], and the ''[[Transformers United]]'' [[Bruticus (G1)#United|Bruticus Maximus]],
{{-}}

==Notes==
*Like the other two ''Energon'' "Maximus" combiners, the five component robots of Bruticus Maximus are made from only three [[mold]]s: a central Deluxe torso, and two Basic limbs with two color schemes each. According to [[Hasbro]] representatives at [[BotCon 2005]], this was done because the budget for the tail-end of ''Energon'' allowed for only nine-to-ten new molds, so they had the choice of two groups of five, or three groups of three. They went with the latter.

'''''Transformers Collaborative''''' is a [[subline imprint|subline]] of the ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' [[franchises|franchise]] that began in [[2019]], intended to incorporate properties originating outside of the ''Transformers'' brand, not unlike the ''[[Transformers: Crossovers|Crossovers]]'' franchise (2008–2011) before it.

''Unlike'' its predecessor, some ''Collaborative'' toys feature tie-in crossover comics published by [[IDW Publishing]].

These are almost ''exactly'' the same as the TakaraTomy releases, even down to the packaging. The Hasbro versions just add a wraparound fake-box cover to the original Japanese packaging. Presumably the only differences are the addition of tampographed production stamping to the toys proper.

==Notes==
* Many of the toys released under the ''Collaborative'' banner had "Project" code-names with varying degrees of bizarreness:
{{collist|3|
:::*Ectotron: "Project Mullet"
:::*Gigawatt: "Project Future"
:::*Maverick: "Project {{w|Tom Cruise|Cruise}}"
:::*Ultimate X-Spanse: "Project {{w|Blackbird (comics)|Bird}}"
:::*Tyrannocon Rex/JP93: "Project Park"
:::*J. Balvintron/Energia Buzzsaw & Vibras Stripes: "Project Jam"
:::*Draculus: "Project Bat"
:::*Megatron H.I.S.S. Tank: "Project Trooper 1"
:::*Bumblebee A.W.E Striker: "Project Trooper 3"
:::*Tonkanator: "Project Yellow"
}}
* As of [[{{CURRENTYEAR}}]], only the second Ectotron, the Ultimate X-Spanse and Gigawatt figures have been released in [[New Zealand]]. Ectotron was available through Toyworld and Mighty Ape, while Gigawatt was only available through Mighty Ape. Ultimate X-Spanse on the other hand had ''almost'' received a full retail release, being sold through The Warehouse, Toyworld and Mighty Ape (three of the five major New Zealand ''Transformers'' toy distributors).
* The [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generations toys#Holiday Optimus Prime|Holiday Optimus Prime]] toy seems to have its origins in a no-show [[Amazon (website)|Amazon Prime]] × ''Transformers Collaborative'' toy that was listed on Amazon.com.au in July 2022<ref>[https://tformers.com/leaked-transformers-x-amazon-prime-collaborative-optimus-prime-delivery-truck-listing/46484/news.html Tformers.com reports on a leaked Amazon Prime Collaborative listing]</ref> after its existence was first leaked by "secret inside sources" types in June the previous year.<ref>[https://tformers.com/41962 Tformers.com reports on mid-2021 rumours]</ref> Like Holiday Prime, the Amazon mashup was also specified to turn into a licensed Volvo truck in 37 steps. All signs point to the Volvo Optimus Prime mold being repurposed as an affiliate of a less corporate–and more public domain–gift distributor... not to mention as a release less likely to annoy other [[Walmart|major]] [[Target|retailers]] of Hasbro toys.

The Transformers: Masterpiece

2023-01-28T06:32:44Z

Shoutsuo: dark amber leo prime is avalible now

{{nav-mp}}

'''''The Transformers: Masterpiece''''' (トランスフォーマーマスターピース, ''Toransufōmā Masutāpīsu'', also '''''The Transformers: Master Piece''''')<ref>MP-01 Convoy's box featured an early English logo that put a space in between "master" and "piece". From MP-2 Ultra Magnus-onwards, the logo was changed to "Masterpiece" with no space.</ref> is a toyline of collector-focused toys that are primarily based upon characters from the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|original ''The Transformers'' cartoon]], but manufactured with today's advanced engineering techniques. As a line aimed towards collectors, ''Masterpiece'' Transformers tend to be very expensive, with larger and more complex [[Transformation (toys)|conversion]] schemes to achieve closer accuracy and greater articulation than toys aimed at children.

Though the ''Masterpiece'' line is largely developed by [[TakaraTomy|Takara/TakaraTomy]] with the [[Japan]]ese market in mind, the line is also distributed by [[Hasbro]] in Asian markets outside Japan, and in [[Australia]] as [[Target]] and [[Toys"R"Us]] [[exclusive]]s. Hasbro has also [[redeco]]ed/[[retool]]ed molds from this line for release in their own markets under various toy lines, and almost always as store exclusives. These Hasbro versions originally saw release as [[Walmart]] exclusives until 2009, when they were succeeded by Toys"R"Us. From 2013 onwards, Hasbro released its versions as a single cohesive line (instead of as part of other, contemporary lines), with a numbering system similar to the one used by TakaraTomy. However, by 2015, the figures were again [[co-branding|co-branded]] as part of the ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' line, while still continuing their numbering system. Beginning with TakaraTomy's MP-43 (as well as the MP-17+, MP-18+ and MP-20+ versions released around the same time), Hasbro officially distributed all-new figures as imports available from various online retailers and specialty stores. The Hasbro versions differ ever-so-slightly from the Japanese-distributed TakaraTomy versions by the addition of a [[tampograph]]ed Hasbro product code number on the figure itself, and the use of an additional black outer sleeve for the packaging that prominently features the [[List of Japanese ID numbers|Japanese ID number]], but not any actual ''name'' for the figure.
{{TOCclear}}

==Scale and rate of releases==
The ''Masterpiece'' line started at a slow pace in 2003, with new molds being released every two years or so, and with redecos/retools being released in-between. The figures that were released back then were exclusive of the larger main characters, and [[scale]] wasn't very consistent due to price constraints and their large size, with the results being that figures of certain huge characters (such as Grimlock) were too short compared to other characters they were meant to tower over (such as Convoy).

With the release of a new tooling of Convoy in 2011, the line was rebooted, featuring a smaller, more consistent scale based on MP-09 Rodimus Convoy, and a ''significant'' increase in releases per year. Rather notably, ''Masterpieces'' of the smaller characters were introduced.

Starting in 2016, ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Wars]]'' characters were added to the line, and the series began a shift towards even more extreme cartoon-accuracy.

2021 saw the beginning of a swing in the other direction towards an [[Transformers: Alternators|''Alternators'']]-style focus on licensed vehicle mode accuracy and, subsequently, vehicle mode scale, beginning with simultaneous release of MP-53 Skids and MP-54 Reboost, marketed almost entirely on the back of their popular Honda City vehicle mode.

In 2022 the trend kicked into high gear as TakaraTomy launched the ''G Series'' combiner subline with the [[Trainbot]]s, an obscure subgroup within the context of the ''Transformers'' brand, in a big swing for Japan's massive model train market. The figures are made to the model train "HO [[scale]],"<ref>[https://news.tfw2005.com/2021/10/28/figure-king-285-interview-with-mpg-01-raiden-development-team-english-translation-443964 Figure King 285: Interview With MPG-01 Raiden Development Team – English Translation] on TFW2005</ref> which—whether or not intentional—also makes their [[robot mode]]s fit the same cartoon-based scale as the current mainline ''Masterpiece'' Transformers, having the individual components stand ''slightly'' taller than the standard [[Autobot Cars]].

Back on the cartoon-based side of things, 2022 also saw the announcement of MP-57 Skyfire, who, in a truly awe-inspiring display of [[Size changing|mass shifting]] reproduction, features a series of Autobot miniatures for vehicle mode to accommodate his use as a transport in the cartoon.

==Sublines==
In addition to the main ''Masterpiece'' line, there are four sublines based on both other franchises and other portions of the ''Transformers'' franchise:

===''Transformers'' sublines===
* The '''''[[#Masterpiece Movie Series|Transformers: Masterpiece Movie Series]]''''' (トランスフォーマーマスターピースムービーシリーズ ''Toransufōmā Masutāpīsu Mūbī Shirīzu'') line, based on the [[live-action film series]], with toys designated MPM-##; this line originally consisted of detailed redecoes of [[Size class|Leader-sized]] toys from [[Transformers (2010 toyline)|the 2010 ''Transformers'' toyline]] and was canceled after only two releases. It was later revived in [[2017]] for the 10th Anniversary of the [[Transformers (film)|first movie]], this time featuring all-new molds. The revived line was released in conjunction with Hasbro, with the toys [[co-branding|co-branded]] "Hasbro" and "TakaraTomy" on their packaging.
* The '''''[[#Masterpiece G Series|Transformers: Masterpiece G Series]]''''' (トランスフォーマーマスターピースGシリーズ ''Toransufōmā Masutāpīsu G Shirīzu'') line, with toys designated as MPG-##, which for now, only consists of ''[[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers (franchise)#Transformers: The Headmasters|The Headmasters]]'' [[Trainbot]]s that combine to form [[Raiden#Masterpiece G Series|the first official ''Masterpiece''-scale]] [[combiner]]. The figures feature a ''heavy'' emphasis on vehicle mode accuracy, being produced in collaboration with [[TOMIX]], the {{w|Rail transport modelling|train department}} of TakaraTomy's {{w|scale model}} oriented subsidiary [[Tomytec]], and licensed by a bevy of railway manufacturers. Accordingly, the figures are fully functional model trains at the HO [[scale]].<ref>[https://www.soundwavesoblivion.com/techspecs/interviewkojinono2.html Figure King 285: Interview With MPG-01 Raiden Development Team – English Translation] at Soundwaves Oblivion</ref> The "G" stands for "GATTAI" (合体), "GIANT" (巨大化), and "GREAT" (グレート), "gattai" meaning "combine" in Japanese.<ref>[https://tf.takaratomy.co.jp/products/tf_mpg ''G Series'' hub on the TakaraTomy website]</ref>

===Other ''Masterpiece'' sublines===
* The '''''[[Brave (franchise)|Masterpiece Brave Series]]''''' (マスターピース勇者シリーズ ''Masutāpīsu Yūsha Shirīzu'') line, with toys designated as MP-B##, which was cancelled after only two releases.
* The '''''[[Zoids|Zoids Masterpiece]]''''' (ゾイドマスターピース ''Zoido Masutāpīsu'') line, with toys designated as MPZ-##.

For obvious reasons, neither the ''Brave Series'' nor ''Zoids'' ''Masterpiece'' lines are covered on this wiki.

==Fiction==
'''''The Transformers: Masterpiece''''' toyline has received some light fictional support throughout its extensive run, thus far largely within the [[Japanese Generation 1 cartoon continuity]].

===Comics===
[[File:MP1BCybertronCommanderCover01.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1]]
''Masterpiece'' recieved [[e-HOBBY]] comics between [[2010]]-[[2011]] to provide fictional justification for their various exclusive redecoes, as well as a smattering of higher concept comics told sporadically through the ''[[Transformers Generations (series)|Transformers Generations]]'' book series beginning in [[2014]] and continuing to this day.
====e-HOBBY ====
*"[[MP-1B Cybertron Commander / Convoy Black Ver.]]"
*"[[MP-3G Destron Air Commander / Starscream Ghost Ver.]]"
*"[[Destron Doppelgänger Black Rodimus Convoy]]"

}}
Perhaps most notably, ''Masterpiece'' inherited [[Yuki Ohshima]]'s series of comics colloquially known as the "Wars" series from TakaraTomy's short-lived [[2012]] [[Transformers: Generations (Japan)|''Generations'']] toyline (not to be confused with the [[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|modern super-brand]]) beginning in [[2015]] with "[[Rodimus Wars]]," a ''[[The Transformers: The Movie|Transformers: The Movie]]'' prequel advertising the then-upcoming MP-28 [[Hot Rod (G1)/toys#MP28|Hot Rodimus]] and MP-29 [[Shockwave (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Laserwave]]. As of this writing, the series is concerned with an ongoing distant prequel to the primary arc of the series' ''Generations'' incarnation, "[[Train Wars]]," to advertise the ''Masterpiece G Series'' [[Trainbot#Masterpiece G Series|Trainbot]]s.

====IDW Publishing====
''Masterpiece'' briefly rode the coattails of Hasbro's [[Transformers Collaborative|''Collaborative'']] crossover brand into mass market comic books in [[2019]] with MP-10G [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generations toys#CollabGB|Optimus Prime Ecto-35 Edition]]'s prominent appearance in the ''[[Transformers/Ghostbusters]]'' comic, albeit very much playing second fiddle to ''Collaborative''{{'}}s original character for the ''Ghostbusters x Transformers'' subline, [[Ectotron]].

====Pack-in plotlines====
Beginning around [[2015]] with the [[Bluestreak (G1)/toys#MP18B|blue variant]] of ''Masterpiece'' [[Bluestreak (G1)|Bluestreak]], TakaraTomy began to build out the bios printed in the instructions of its original decoes into full-on recurring prose plotlines penned by all-around brand renaissance man and ''[[The Transformers: Collector's Edition|Collector's Edition]]'' veteran [[Hirofumi Ichikawa]]<ref>{{citesocial|quote=Not all, but yes. I wrote most of Diaclone/Microchange repaints bios, except MP Tigertrack/Clamp Down/Bluestreak/Enemy & other cassettes (though I did original e-Hobby and Encore).|link=https://twitter.com/Hirovmi/status/1604695336206815233?s=20&t=nkk0qz_bmz0rHavlkZQ_RA|site=Twitter|name=Hirofumi Ichikawa|year=2022|month=12|day=18}}</ref> that continue to this day.

====''Transformers × Evangelion''====
{{main|Transformers × Evangelion}}
This tiny crossover franchise with the wildly popular ''{{w|Neon Genesis Evangelion}}'' brand received a short blog feature on the TakaraTomy website.

===''End of G1 Universe''===
{{main|The Transformers: End of G1 Universe}}
[[2022]] saw the surprise announcement from TakaraTomy of a devoted webcomic for ''Masterpiece'', named "[[The Transformers: End of G1 Universe|''End of G1 Universe'']]" and published directly on the ''Masterpiece'' website, beginning with MP-48+ [[Dark Amber Leo Prime#Toys|Dark Amber Leo Prime]]. The next installment in brand veteran [[Hayato Sakamoto]]'s series of pack-in comic epics following the finale of the [[Generations Selects Special Comic|comic]] for TakaraTomy's arm of the [[Generations Selects (franchise)|''Generations Selects'']] franchise the previous year, the series sets the ostentatious goal of ''concluding'' the behemoth [[Japanese Generation 1 cartoon continuity]].

===Hasbro===
Due to the brand unification, nearly all Hasbro ''Masterpiece'' releases after ''Generations'' MP-10 Optimus Prime are imports of TakaraTomy toys above with new slip-covers. ''Masterpiece Movie Series'' releases after MPM-4 Optimus Prime, meanwhile, are the same toys in both Hasbro and TakaraTomy markets, with the former often releasing toys as store-exclusives.

==Design==
The ''Masterpiece'' line has had a number of designers.

Since MP-25, each ''Masterpiece'' figure has been designed as a team effort, led by [[Hironori Kobayashi]], and any names given are within the scope of the larger team.

[...] I couldn't shirk my task as the release date had already been set by backward calculation. I really did the best I could though there just wasn't enough time.</ref>

[Yuki]: That is right. (*laughs) I was not assigned to be in charge of it initially, but due to the circumstance within the company I was unexpectedly handed down the project. The schedule came with it and I was stunned when I realised that I was only given 12 days, about 2 weeks...To make it worse, at the time of my receiving the task, even the product size wasn't decided.

[Shogo]: MP-10 Convoy was the first Masterpiece I was involved in developing.
When the project was conceived I was mainly working on the products for the overseas Hasbro market, but was given a chance to develop a Masterpiece for the domestic market irregularly.</ref>

I was happy to be finally able to work on him. As there had already been several real car MP figures and Ultra Magnus is a car carrier that can carry them, I considered Magnus as a certain milestone in the new MP series. I wanted the car carrier to have a capacity of at least 4 real car MPs while in robot mode his height needed to be as close as seen in the cartoon. The transformation process was expected to require lots of folding of the parts to achieve it, and solving that problem became a very important task. Upon agreeing on that point, Kobayashi took over to work on the transformation mechanism and (Ultra Magnus is) finished as he is now.</ref>

[Yuki]: Yes. It turned out Star Saber was the winner. Hasui, the main series designer, was going to be in charge of the 30th anniversary MP originally. But he was fully occupied with Bumble and Wheeljack, and since Star Saber was a character I was attached to personally, I stood for the job eagerly.</ref>

He also said that the same designer did Ironhide and he began to say another name (Ratchet) but stopped himself." A subsequent interview in ''[[Transformers Generations 2015]]'' named Kobayashi as the designer of Ironhide, confirming him as the designer in question.</ref>

==Awards==
* The ''Masterpiece'' line as a whole won the [http://www.takaratomy.co.jp/product_release/pdf/p161028.pdf 2016 Long Life Design award] (PDF link) presented by the [https://www.g-mark.org/about/ Good Design Awards].
* [[Shouki#Masterpiece|MPG-01 ''Masterpiece'' Shouki]] recieved an Excellence Award in the "High Target" (read: collector) Toy category at the 2022 Japan Toy Awards.<ref>[https://www.toys.or.jp/toyshow/awards.html The 2022 Japan Toy Awards] at the Tokyo Toy Show website.</ref>

==Notes==
* Like with previous lines, the official Hasbro-initiated imports of ''Masterpiece'' figures were also assigned code names. For the 2021 releases, the "theme" for those code names was "snacks":
{{collist|3|
:::*Arcee: "Airheads"
:::*Black Convoy: "Cavaliers"
:::*Spinout: "Snickers"
:::*Tigatron: "Twizzlers"
}}
:For the 2022 releases, it was "deserts":
{{collist|3|
:::*Skywarp: "Sahara"
:::*Autobot Skids: "Kalahari"
:::*Reboost : "Sonoran"
}}
*The Hasbro Pulse listing of the [[Optimus_Prime_(G1)/toys#Anti-Gravity_Pedestal_Tenseg_Base|Anti-Gravity Pedestal Tenseg Base Optimus Prime set]] comes sheathed in a Masterpiece branded sleeve for the box, but the page does not list it for very obvious reasons. (Its code name was "Colorado", for those wondering.)

Transformers: Shattered Glass (toyline)

2023-01-28T05:01:15Z

[[File:Onegenerationshattered.jpg|right|upright=1.95|thumb|Collecting this line will be expensive!]]

Like most ''Transformers'' [[franchise]]s, '''''[[Transformers: Shattered Glass (franchise)|Transformers: Shattered Glass]]''''' has a toyline, which started with [[BotCon 2008]]'s box set and souvenirs, and continued with scattered releases through [[Fun Publications]] and other fan-aimed release venues.

However, there is also a large number of toys originally from other ''Transformers'' toylines that have been officially [[repurposing|repurposed]] by official fiction as ''Shattered Glass'' characters. This was done to fill out the universe in a way that fans could re-create with toys they might already own (or ideally could obtain easily/inexpensively).

Quite a few additional fiction-only ''Shattered'' character designs are based on existing toys/characters with new color schemes, meaning they potentially ''could'' be manufactured some day, or recreated by enterprising [[Customizing|kitbashers]].

[[TakaraTomy]] has thus far produced one sole release in the ''Shattered Glass'' setting as part of the series of new-character redecoes of [[Generation 1 (Japanese toyline)|Generation 1 molds]] produced by ''their'' collector oriented vendor, [[e-HOBBY]]. Despite being marketed as a ''Shattered Glass'' set, the packaging features ''Fight!

When [[Hasbro]] shuttered Fun Publications' ''Timelines'' imprint in 2016 as part of their wide-ranging initiative to consolidate the ''Transformers'' brand, the last of the Transformers Collectors' Club's ''Shattered Glass'' output was reshuffled under the ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' mega-franchise. All ''Shattered Glass'' releases following the end of Fun Publications' tenure that same year have since followed suit.

==Notes==
[[File:TF-POTP-Leader-Class-Evo-Rodimus-Unicronus.jpg|thumb|upright=1.5|"Rodimus ''what''?" "Rodimus PRIME! ''PRIME''!"]]
* [[Fun Publications]]' text stories by Sepelak and Troop referred to all of the [[Mini-Con]]-mold characters as Micromasters; "[[Do Over]]" in particular.
* A proposed but unrealized [[BotCon]] [[exclusive]] by [[Fun Publications]] was a redeco of [[Lockdown (ROTF)#Revenge of the Fallen|''Revenge of the Fallen'' Lockdown]] (utilizing [[Axor#Transformers (2010)|Axor]] tooling) into a ''Shattered Glass'' version of [[Stranglehold]].<ref>[http://www.toycollectors.com.au/bc14/bc14br.html BotCon 2014 attendee report]</ref>
*The [[2017]] ''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'' subline of ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' includes a figure named "[[Hot Rod (G1)/toys#RodimusUnicronus|Rodimus Unicronus]]", representing a [[Unicron]]-corrupted version of "Generation 1" Hot Rod/Rodimus Prime. Of significance is that this figure takes its deco directly from the BotCon 2008 ''Shattered Glass'' Rodimus figure, and even features a retooled "Prime" head with a goatee. Moreover, early pre-release photos and display samples of this toy actually featured purple Autobot symbols, strongly indicating that the toy was once at least considered for release as the actual ''Shattered Glass'' version of the character. But ultimately, marketing consistency presumably won out and the toy was released as an evil version of normal Rodimus with purple Decepticon symbols instead. Nevertheless, that needn't deter [[fandom|fans]] from [[repurposing]]. ''*wink wink*''
* The [[Studio Trigger]] anime series ''{{w|SSSS.Gridman}}'' featured a wide cast of characters sporting visual designs based on ''Transformers'' characters, predominantly ''Shattered Glass'' designs.

Transformers: Shattered Glass (toyline)

Like most ''Transformers'' [[franchise]]s, '''''[[Transformers: Shattered Glass (franchise)|Transformers: Shattered Glass]]''''' has a toyline, which started with [[BotCon 2008]]'s box set and souvenirs, and continued with scattered releases through [[Fun Publications]] and other fan-aimed release venues.

However, there is also a large number of toys originally from other ''Transformers'' toylines that have been officially [[repurposing|repurposed]] by official fiction as ''Shattered Glass'' characters. This was done to fill out the universe in a way that fans could re-create with toys they might already own (or ideally could obtain easily/inexpensively).

Quite a few additional fiction-only ''Shattered'' character designs are based on existing toys/characters with new color schemes, meaning they potentially ''could'' be manufactured some day, or recreated by enterprising [[Customizing|kitbashers]].

[[TakaraTomy]] has thus far produced one sole release in the ''Shattered Glass'' setting as part of the series of new-character redecoes of [[Generation 1 (Japanese toyline)|Generation 1 molds]] produced by ''their'' collector oriented vendor, [[e-HOBBY]]. Despite being marketed as a ''Shattered Glass'' set, the packaging features ''Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers'' branding and even includes an [[List of Japanese ID numbers|ID number]] that loosely fits within the original Japanese Generation 1 toylines' "verses pack" numbering system.

====''Generations''====
{{main|Transformers: Generations (toyline)}}
When [[Hasbro]] shuttered Fun Publications' ''Timelines'' imprint in 2016 as part of their wide-ranging initiative to consolidate the ''Transformers'' brand, the last of the Transformers Collectors' Club's ''Shattered Glass'' output was reshuffled under the ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' mega-franchise. All ''Shattered Glass'' releases following the end of Fun Publications' tenure that same year have since followed suit.

Of significance is that this figure takes its deco directly from the BotCon 2008 ''Shattered Glass'' Rodimus figure, and even features a retooled "Prime" head with a goatee. Moreover, early pre-release photos and display samples of this toy actually featured purple Autobot symbols, strongly indicating that the toy was once at least considered for release as the actual ''Shattered Glass'' version of the character.

Play pattern

2023-01-21T04:04:53Z

In the world of [[toy]] design, '''play pattern''' is fancy murky industry-speak for "how are kids supposed to use this toy?" You'll find it used a lot in the written description of patent applications. Any feature of a toy that is intended to be used in a particular, specific way is part of some play pattern.

Some sample play patterns:
* '''[[Transformation|Conversion]]:''' toys that transform from robot to vehicle, of course. It's the fundamental play pattern that defines the [[Transformers brand|''Transformers'' brand]].
* '''[[Combiner|Combination]]:''' A feature introduced by toys such as [[Superion (G1)|Superion]] and [[Menasor (G1)|Menasor]], both composed of smaller toys.
* '''"Micro play":''' used by Hasbro reps at [[BotCon 2002]]<ref>[http://www.builtstlouis.net/tf/manic/m-bc02.html Botcon 2002 report]</ref> to describe the play pattern of the tiny [[Mini-Con]] toys in ''Armada'' (and, by extension, their [[Micromaster]] predecessors.)
* '''"Aspirational Play":''' A somewhat more abstract, design-centric factor, that Hasbro has referenced as a play pattern. Aspirational Play describes a child's preference to go "vroom-vroom" and "whoosh whoosh" with a [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes|Lamborghini or Fighter Jet]] rather than the family station-wagon or a feather-duster.
* '''"Puzzle play:"''' The play pattern associated with converting more complex ''Transformers'' toys. Since [[2014]], Hasbro has moved to de-emphasize this play pattern in their film/cartoon tie-in toylines, in favor of simpler and [[autotransformation|automatic]] transformations, leaving puzzle play to the ''Generations'' and ''Masterpiece'' lines.
* '''"Battle play":''' Knocking over action figures and the one who doesn't fall over wins.
* '''"Ecosystem":''' The intentional compatibility of toys released as part of different [[size class]]es, like in ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'', ''[[Titans Return (toyline)|Titans Return]]'', ''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'', ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege]]'', ''[[War for Cybertron: Earthrise]]'', ''[[War for Cybertron: Kingdom]]'', and ''[[Transformers: Legacy]]''.

[[File:Armadagalvatron 5mmoverload.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|Attach ALL THE THINGS]]

If all this seems insanely pedantic, consider that the play pattern is distinct from other potential but unintended uses of the toy. For example:
* Converting [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|Fortress Maximus]] from city to base to robot? Intended play pattern!
** Using Fortress Maximus as a blunt instrument to crush your little sister's dollhouse? Not the intended play pattern (but still cool)!
* Converting [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]] from robot to gun? Intended play pattern!
** Using a G1 Megatron in gun form to rob a bank? Get used to prison food, you maniac!

Gold Plastic Syndrome

2023-01-14T03:51:53Z

Shoutsuo: put the megabolt stuff in the rid 2001 section instead of the universe 2003 placement since megabolt was actually in rid 2001 and not universe 2003

{{featured}}
[[File:Electrogoldplasticsyndrome.jpg|right|upright=2.5|thumb|Ouch.]]
'''Gold Plastic Syndrome''' (commonly shorthanded to '''GPS''') is fandom terminology used to describe the phenomenon of a toy's [[plastic]] decomposing and becoming brittle to the point of shattering or crumbling under minimal-stress conditions. In the most extreme cases, toys have been reported to spontaneously crumble to small bits without any applied force at all, even if they're fresh out of their [[Mint in sealed box|unopened package]].

This breakage is different from the relatively more common stress-fracture type of plastic breakage that can occur in some [[Toy|''Transformers'' toys]]; while normal stress fractures are universally heralded by stress marks on the toy, GPS breakage doesn't have that sign; it simply crumbles to pieces. The condition takes its name from the gold plastics of late Generation 1 through to ''Beast Wars'' that have proved the most prone to this sort of breakage. Despite the name, Gold Plastic Syndrome has been known to affect other types of plastic—most of them noted for a pretty metallic swirl in the plastic; the reason it has the GPS moniker is because gold plastic was the first one observed to have this horrific phenomenon.

Thankfully, Gold Plastic Syndrome is generally unheard of in modern ''Transformers'' figures, with the last reported case being in [[2015]] with ''[[Transformers Unite Warriors|Unite Warriors]]'' [[Motormaster (G1)#Unite Warriors|Motormaster]].

==Etymology==
The term was coined in an [[alt.toys.transformers]] post made by user Sky Shadow in September 2002.<ref>http://groups.google.co.uk/group/alt.toys.transformers/msg/2b3d532961b2c2dc</ref> A post by [[Dave Edwards|Dave "Zobovor" Edwards]], meanwhile, made in June of the previous year,<ref>http://groups.google.co.uk/group/alt.toys.transformers/msg/6ed7e0f3586f37e4</ref> is the earliest identifiable acknowledgment of the widespread nature of the phenomenon within the Transformers fan community.

Completing the journey from fan term to official term, "Gold Plastic Syndrome" was used by Hasbro designer [[John Warden]] at the ''Transformers Generations'' panel at Comic-Con International 2015 to describe exactly what would not happen to ''Combiner Wars'' G2-style [[Slingshot (G1)#Combiner Wars|Quickslinger]].

==Notability==
GPS is widespread among toys made in the tail-end of [[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1]], typically the second year of [[Pretender]]s and even some European-market exclusives, ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' and the ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' series, but examples have surfaced from lines as recent as [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|''Universe'' (2003)]], the ''[[Star Wars Transformers (2005)|Star Wars Transformers]]'' and the [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|2007 movie]]. Transformers toys are not the only ones to suffer from this; there have been reports of ''[[G.I. Joe (team)|G.I. Joe]]'' and ''[[Visionaries]]'' toys' gold plastics also crumbling seemingly of their own accord; even some ''Super Sentai'' and ''Power Rangers'' toys have been known to suffer. Probably the strangest is accounts of retro game collectors finding ''Majora's Mask'' cartridges shatter under minimal stress. Other retro robot toy collectors have referred to it as "Popy disease", after the metallic blue plastic favored by the company Popy that led to the demise of many a Dairugger / Vehicle Team Voltron.

The toys most likely to suffer from Gold Plastic Syndrome are those with gold or bronze plastic with a metallic swirl to it. There are other known cases with different colors of plastic—though usually there is a tell-tale swirl in the plastic.

===Cause===
[[File:SkyquakeGPSback.jpg|thumb|upright=1.67|Gleargh]]
Because this is not exactly an area of scientific notability there aren't any full studies into Gold Plastic Syndrome that we know about. Basically, it is thought that certain plastics weren't mixed as well as others, possibly because of the metallic pigment or colouring, so they break down more quickly.

It's not much of a theory, really; think more a hypothesis. Here's a more detailed attempt:

{{bigquote|The problem likely arises, as with many composites, when the bonding between the polymer and the dye/particles breaks down. This could occur do to a natural chemical/phase change of the plastic, due to oxidation, for example, or by another mechanism, say the forces incurred by the toy being played with, or more likely, due to some combination thereof. In any case, when the bonds between the particles and the polymers break down, you would get small voids in the plastic structure. If this occurs frequently enough, the structure would become effectively porous (that is, it would be filled with lots of tiny voids/cracks where the polymers and particles have come apart). With even a slight amount of force, some of these cracks/voids could expand, even slightly, to the point where they intersect another void and join, making an even bigger crack. Once a critical crack length is reached, the sample fractures.

So effectively, the plastic becomes more brittle, and this would also explain it "crumbling" as well as cracking.}}
:-Aernaroth suggests a cause for GPS [http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?s=&showtopic=57191&view=findpost&p=1174876 on the Allspark]

In short, the poorly-bonded plastic is so honeycombed with air gaps that the pressure required for movement will crumble it.

Hasbro have attributed it to "the amount of gold fleck included in the plastic", and have apparently reduced the amount in similar plastics of more recent vintage to prevent further occurrences.<ref name="hasbrogps">[http://www.transformerland.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3481 Hasbro Transformersland.com Q&A, August 2009:] "When we used gold metallic plastic in the past we discovered, along with many of you, that it becomes brittle over time. As we became aware of this situation, we took the necessary steps to reduce the amount of gold fleck included in the plastic to eliminate this issue. Ultimately, this should no longer be an issue due to these corrective steps that we have taken."</ref> Later Hasbro said that they believe they've "alleviated the issues associated with the 'gold' plastic issue" through "trial and error." <ref>http://www.toyark.com/news/transformers-toy-news-2/hasbro-transformers-june-2010-qna-2867/</ref>

All in all, the actual causes of Gold Plastic Syndrome aren't a very big deal to Transformers fans—it's really pretty academic. Of more concern is the ''RESULTS'' (i.e., poor Electro crumbling to bits like an Oreo left in milk too long), and what to look out for. There's no certain cure here, no fix. If a toy has GPS, it '''will''' die if handled and transformed normally.

Seibertron.com has reported that Ace Hardware's "Lub-E" product may prevent GPS breakage, having applied it to an Electro pre-photo-shoot. This claim needs further verification, as it may very well be a coincidence that that specific Electro did not break at that moment. Other discussions of Lub-E or comparable shock oil products have recommended ''submerging the toy in the lubricant entirely,'' which many collectors would find unacceptable even ''if'' it worked.

===The Symptoms===
[[File:GPSSkyquakescopeclose.jpg|upright=1.67|thumb|right|Nooo!]]

Gold Plastic Syndrome usually has a few clear signs. Knowing how to tell the difference between Gold Plastic Syndrome and normal plastic breakage is very important for a Transformers fan who is collecting vintage toys. It's the difference between giving up on that toy completely (since if it has GPS, it's ''likely'' most other samples of the toy will as well) and buying a new copy.
*GPS usually takes place in metallic-coloured plastics, most notably gold plastic and bronze plastic.
*GPS breaks are NOT accompanied by stress fractures. There is usually NOT any visible wear before the breakage. This is really important. Plastic breaks. This is a reality of toy collecting, plastic gets old and it breaks. Gold plastic syndrome is breakage without warning.
*GPS breaks often leave a powdery residue and shards of plastic (though not always), the result of the plastic actually physically crumbling. Take a look at the picture of Skyquake's scope—okay, the bits of his scope—to the right. You can actually see some of the left-over shards of plastic. Keep in mind this picture was taken years after the break actually occurred—these are new shards of plastic which came off these pieces of scope during the process of moving the parts around for photography. Plastic should '''not''' be that brittle or delicate.
*GPS breakages don't need to involve any excess stress or force on a toy—simply handling a toy or opening its box can cause the breakage. If your toy breaks despite careful handling it's more likely to be GPS.
*GPS breaks often have rough, uneven edges with no stress lines around them. This is important—usually when plastic snaps it snaps cleanly (as is common with clear plastic), or it bends first (leaving a torn-off piece, or clear stresses around the break). If a break is uneven, with different colours and textures in it, yet there are no stress fractures around the wound, and especially if it leaves a powdery residue as well, it's almost certainly a GPS break. Take a look at the photo of Skyquake above for a good example of the ragged break. Okay... not good. What's the other word that's LIKE "good", but not actually good? Oh yeah. Horrifying. A HORRIFYING example.
*GPS plastics will sometimes feel brittle to the touch, sometimes making cracking noises as they're handled.

A really easy test to tell if you have GPS breakage is this—if a piece breaks off, try snapping it again. If it's normal plastic breakage, the broken piece should bend or bow instead of just snapping like dry wood; there should be some give in the plastic, even if it's a brittle, clear plastic—so you should be able to glue it back into place, or at least get a replacement part. On the other hand, if the broken piece snaps like your grandmother's ankles in a rugby match, then you've almost definitely got Gold Plastic Syndrome.

==GPS misconceptions==
'''ALL GOLD PLASTIC WILL DIE!'''
:Not true. It's only a specific composite of gold plastic only used during a specific era that will die, most prominently used from 1988 (second year Pretenders are notorious for it) and through to about the end of ''Beast Wars'' in 2000, although there are still a few rare cases of post-millennium figures with this issue up until 2007. As far as we know modern toys do not suffer from GPS due to a reduction in the amount of metallic flakes in similar, but more recent toys.<ref name="hasbrogps" /> Toys with flexible nylon-based gold plastics, such as [[Optimus Prime (Armada)|Superbase Optimus Prime's]] elbows, are not susceptible to GPS supposedly because of the plastic's composition. Even on toys well known for GPS, some of their gold plastic is less prone to break. Gold plastic which is nice and thick is much less likely to snap than gold plastic which is thin. Gold plastic which is under constant stress—like that at a joint—is also more likely to break. That said, some really nice solid parts can shatter like eggshells if it's real GPS we're talkin' about.

:Furthermore, there are various examples of figures built between 1988 to 2007 molded in similar-looking gold or bronze swirly plastic that do not suffer from this issue, like [[Blaze Master]], [[Archadis]], [[San D-Go]], [[Snarler]], and perhaps most ironically, [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#Generation 1|Goldbug]]. Gold chrome, like that seen in [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys|G2 Bumblebee]] and [[Cheetor (BW)/toys|Transmetal Cheetor]], is also completely immune from GPS since it's merely painted rather than actually being gold plastic.

'''MY TOY BROKE, IT MUST BE GOLD PLASTIC SYNDROME!!!'''
:There are plenty of ways for plastic to break that aren't related to Gold Plastic Syndrome. Repeated stress on a plastic, dropping a toy, a toy with metal parts that damage the plastic parts, thin plastic, or simply the use of translucent plastic, which is more brittle. Just because a toy breaks doesn't mean it's Gold Plastic Syndrome. Look for the symptoms (listed above) and ask around before assuming that every single copy of this toy is destined to die a painful and horrible death.

'''ONLY GOLD PLASTIC GETS GOLD PLASTIC SYNDROME!'''
:Not ''quite'' true. Observations suggest that it should probably be called "Metallic Plastic Syndrome". It's those metallic plastics, most commonly the gold and bronze plastics used for almost ten years by Hasbro and Takara, from around 1989 to 1998. However, it's possible that any colour of plastic could be susceptible, given enough time. So keep a close eye on your Fire Convoy, kids; that pretty metallic swirl in his plastic isn't promising... maybe.

'''MY TOY IS DOOMED!'''
:Okay... not ''exactly'' a misconception. Your toy is ''probably'' doomed... but there is a little bit of light at the end of the tunnel.

:You see, the thickness of the plastic seems to affect GPS. Also, the amount of stress on it affects it. While some toys are known for breaking just by having their packages opened—guys like Randy, Roadblock and ''Generation 2'' Slingshot—others, like Skyquake and Pyro, can remain intact if they are handled with extreme care (and never ever transformed, of course) because the parts that are made of GPS plastics are large and thick and otherwise robust. GPS is an inconsistent process—eventually your toy '''will''' crumble, but there's no telling how long it will take. With delicate handling (read: almost none) you can maintain a GPS-afflicted toy in your collection for quite some time.

:Also remember that the evidence for Gold Plastic Syndrome is ''completely'' observational. There seems to be some evidence that different plastic batches were less affected, that some releases of the toys were less affected. You might luck out and get an Electro that never crumbles to dust, or you might be really unlucky and get multiple Electros, all of which break horribly. This page is a caution more than anything else. Know what you're getting into when you buy a toy known to be afflicted by GPS.

==Toys commonly associated with Gold Plastic Syndrome==
====Generation 1====
* '''[[Scorponok (G1)#BlackZarak|BlackZarak]]''' is easily one of the most depressing cases due to his rarity and hefty aftermarket pricing. Forget transforming him - simply standing him up is a risk. His golden feet and shield have to be under stress to function as intended, leading to cases of shattered toys fresh out of the box, or even ''[[Mint in sealed box|when still inside it.]]'' The Headmaster figure, double cannons, and city antennas are all likewise gold plastic and all need to be inserted or swiveled into position, and his pack-in partner [[Black Roritchi#Toys|Black Roritchi]], almost entirely made of gold plastic, transforms by folding in half. This is a toy to be handled as little as possible, if ever.

* [[Pretender Monster]]s '''[[Bristleback#Toys|Bristleback]]''' and '''[[Slog (G1)#Toys|Slog]]''' both suffer, but at different severities. Bristleback has multiple points of failure, the most obvious being the thin edges of his fist-holes, which can snap if his gun is pushed too far in. When forming Monstructor, sliding the combiner's fist in place can sometimes be enough to create a large crack through his legs, sometimes even splitting them entirely. (If you're feeling crafty, you might try shaving a tiiiny bit off the sides of the fist's connector plug. Better that less-than-mint condition than the "very broken" type.) And while his monster-limbs are fairly thick plastic, which is ''usually'' safer, they are also attached ''really tightly'', which means applying too much pressure to turn them can cause fractures. Slog is not especially susceptible on his own despite the sheer amount of gold plastic, but forming Monstructor requires another toy ([[Birdbrain#Toys|Birdbrain]]) to be inserted up inside his gold-plastic torso, which can put too much stress on the thinner sides if jostled or pushed in at a bad angle.

* Ultra Pretenders '''[[Roadblock (G1)#Toys|Roadblock]]''' and '''[[Skyhammer (G1)#Toys|Skyhammer]]''' are particularly notorious. Roadblock's innermost robot has three peg holes, two in the fists and one on his back, that are particularly susceptible to cracking and shattering, leaving many a Roadblock hand-less... or arm-less, as sometimes the posts attaching his arms to his torso will crumble around the pin keeping them in place. Meanwhile, the entire bottom of Skyhammer's large vehicle shell is made of gold plastic and it is '''''very''''' prone to breakage. Not to mention how much gold plastic is on his inner shell and his [[robot mode]].

* '''[[Killbison#Toys|Killbison]]''' is one of the comparatively few Takara-market-only toys of the era to have this problem. His arms and back (including the head) are metallic-gold plastic. Most of this plastic is fairly thick, giving it a fair amount of resilience, but his fists and the joint for [[Liokaiser#Toys|Liokaiser]]'s fold-out foot are thinner and run a higher risk of breakage.
[[File:GPSSkyquakescope.jpg|thumb|Well, ''crap''.]]

*The missile launchers shared by all six '''[[Predator (subgroup)|Predator]]''' toys are likely to self-destruct in two ways. Loading a missile when the toy is holding the launcher can cause the peg itself to give before the rather strong internal spring does. Additionally, launching a missile is a gamble. Either the plastic is able to bend enough to release the internal catch, or it isn't and snaps off.

*'''[[Skyquake (G1)#Toys|Skyquake]]''' is another toy notable for having a gimmick which makes the whole thing worse. Skyquake actually has two colours of metallic plastic on him: One is a dark bronze, the other a light bronze. It is the light bronze plastic that is most likely to break. Unfortunately, the light bronze plastic also forms Skyquake's scope. You're supposed to put a Predator jet's scope slide into that part of him. But the union is not pleasant for the one on the receiving end. Take a look at the picture to the right. These are the parts left of Skyquake's scope after another Predator tried to unite with him. Actually... that's not even all the parts, that's just all that could be found. This is a gimmick which should '''''never''''' be attempted by modern collectors. Never, ever, ever, ever. Simple transformation is also risky: the scope often won't withstand being swung around and latched into position (the plastic around the swivel-pins is particularly thin) or having his stabilizer fins leveraged inside it. The moving plate over the [[light-piping|light piping]] on the back of his head is that brittle light bronze too, but it is at least loose and thick enough to be low-risk.

*'''[[Thunder Clash#Toys|Thunder Clash]]''', Skyquake's Autobot counterpart, has mildly less obnoxious GPS issues than Skyquake's, due to more judicious use of metallic plastics, but the toy's ankles are definite risks, as is the handgun peg if not handled with care. Removing the ratchet "catch" from the feet and sanding the handgun's peg a bit will also help by reducing the force put on those parts without noticeably altering to toy.

*'''[[Pyro (G1)#Toys|Pyro]]''' is less extreme than some toys listed here, because his gold plastic parts are ''mostly'' thick enough that he can safely be moved in either mode. However, his gold plastic waist puts him at high risk of cracking in half during transformation, and clipping his gold feet into position in robot mode is a bad idea too. The elbow ratchets are also risky due to the constant spring stress. And of course, his rifle handle is prone to shearing off.

====''Generation 2''====
[[File:Electrobrokenknee.jpg|thumb|Oh, God, my knee! MY KNEEEEEEE!!]]
* There's a ''reason'' that '''[[Electro#Toys|Electro]]''' sits up at the top of this page. Poor guy just can't catch a break, it seems. Wait... actually, no. That's the ''entire problem''. The poor guy totally ''can'' catch a break. All the time. Because he is ''designed to die''. Basically ''anything'' on Electro's body is susceptible to shattering thanks to having many many thin joints made out of metallic gold plastic.

* '''[[Slingshot (G1)/toys#Generation 2|Slingshot]]''' is ''infamous'' for coming apart straight out of the package.<ref>http://groups.google.com/group/alt.toys.transformers/msg/2b8b3dec846e5479?hl=en</ref> Worse, he's another toy whose gimmick will destroy him, like Skyquake. Slingshot's head is a post which is designed to plug into [[Silverbolt (G1)/toys#The Transformers|Silverbolt]] (or any other "Scramble City" style torso-bot) so that Slingshot can form an arm or a leg. If you're unlucky, you're going to end up with his head trapped inside a connector joint.

{{-}}

====''Beast Wars''====
[[File:Goldplasticgrimlock.jpg|thumb|A mighty Dinobot warrior... bested by his own crumbling joints.]]
[[File:Brownplasticsyndrome.jpg|thumb|The one part of Megatron's Movie Jazz cosplay he ''didn't'' want to recreate.]]

*'''[[Grimlock (G1)/toys#Beast Wars|Grimlock]]''' uses metallic gold plastic ball joints for his hips, which is not really a good thing. Common breakages include the insides of his legs (where his chest pegs into them in [[beast mode]]) and his mutant mask (which is very thin).

* The [[Magnaboss (BW)#Beast Wars|Magnaboss]] component '''[[Silverbolt (G1)/toys#Beast Wars|Silverbolt]]''', despite having a ''dangerously'' large amount of metallic bronze plastic, is... actually fairly stable. The main breakage point is where his tail connects to his body. As well, [[Skywarp (BW)#Beast Wars II|Skywarp]], his Japanese counterpart, is just as likely to suffer from this. That said, just... be careful, okay? Be careful.

* The Hasbro version of '''[[Megatron (BW)/toys#MegaTransmetal|Transmetal Megatron]]''' has a tendency to snap at the waist, the shoulders, the... well, anything that's made of that dark semi-metallic brown plastic. This is technically Brown Plastic Syndrome, but regardless of what you call it this toy may end in sadness. This breakage may be due to GPS, a [[design flaw]], or a combination of both; the Takara version's immunity to this issue (because its brown parts are black plastic instead) seems to suggest that GPS may have a role.

*'''[[Optimus Primal (BW)/toys#OptimalOptimus|Optimal Optimus]]''' uses sparkly dark brown plastic for his wheels and turrets, which can suffer from GPS. The block that holds the batteries is the most likely to break, as the "soft" ratchet joint requires the affected plastic to bend.

* The [[Fuzor]] '''[[Torca (BW)#Toys|Torca]]'''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s legs, hip armor panels, tail hinge and sides are all prone to Gold Plastic Syndrome.

* The [[Mutant (BW)|Mutant]] '''[[Soundwave (BW)#Toys|Soundwave]]''' has his ''entire fraggin' body'' composed of gold plastic, so it's a crapshoot. The softer plastics are far less likely to crumble, but the places on his body where the sides hinge open as part of his transformation have a high risk of snapping.

* ''Beast Wars II'' '''[[Bigmos#Toys|Bigmos]]''' has GPS problems that are bizarrely ''not'' his many many many metallic gold plastic parts; his ''turquoise''-colored plastic parts are the brittle ones, to the point of snapping right out of the package. Notable breakage points include the mosquito leg connectors snapping right off, tight hip/thigh swivels resulting in crumbling, and occasionally the robot feet can break due to being really thin pieces. Basically, be very gentle with anything molded in turquoise, be very gentle and take extra caution when twisting tight joints.
:''See [[:File:Bigmos GPS examples.jpg|here]] for a minor example of breakages.''

* ''[[Transformers: Beast Wars (Japanese toyline)#1999 (Beast Wars Neo)|Beast Wars Neo]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s '''[[Randy (BW)#Toys|Randy]]''' is one of the ''legendary'' Gold Plastic Syndrome toys. Imagine, if you will, a toy with an entirely spring-loaded transformation... ''made entirely out of metallic gold plastic''. Ouch, right? The stress of staying in beast mode in package, the mode with the very compressed springs, is often enough to break the joints holding his beast-mode sides on before you even open the package. If you're lucky enough to have one still intact, keeping him in robot mode is the best way to ''keep'' him intact. For a while longer, at least.

* ''[[Transformers: Beast Wars 10th Anniversary|Beast Wars 10th Anniversary]]'' '''[[Dinobot (BW)/toys#Beast Wars 10th Anniversary|Dinobot]]''' has ''two'' kinds of metallic swirled plastic, both of which seem to have hit their expiration dates around 2013. In other words, basically any part on him is highly fragile, although he's most likely to break at the neck, hips, and helmet. At this point, keeping the toy MISB is the best way to display him.

{{-}}

====''Beast Machines''====
* '''[[Snarl (BM)#Toys|Snarl]]''' is an ''atrocious'' example of a victim to Gold Plastic Syndrome; it seems that the longer the figures are left in sealed packages, the more brittle they are upon opening said packages. All manner of extremities will simply snap off of Snarl's body, most easily among these being the ankles.

* '''[[Striker#Toys|Striker]]''' has an entirely gold plastic dinosaur shell which relies on ball joints to move and shift. He also has gold plastic pegs that tab into gold plastic slots. Transforming Striker could prove to be a suicide mission... for him.

{{-}}
====''Robots in Disguise'' (2001)====
*'''[[Optimus Primal (BW)/toys#Robots in Disguise (2001)|Air Attack Optimus Primal]]''', the biggest toy in the line, has large expanses made of sparkly brown plastic, which, like with Optimal Optimus (see above), can be prone to shattering. This condition most often results in the feet breaking. The 2018 ''[[Transformers Encore|Encore]]'' reissue does not suffer from GPS.

*'''[[Megabolt#Toys|Megabolt]]''' has limbs cast primarily in gold plastic, which is ''not'' a good thing. Fracture points include his forearms, the holes that lock his arms in place in crawling head mode, lower legs near the knees, and his head. On top of this he has other design flaws that can lead to non-gold-plastic parts snapping off, so, good luck!

{{-}}

====''Universe'' (2003)====
* Many combiner [[kibble]] parts to '''[[Micromaster]] [[Superion (Universe)#Toys|Superion]]''' suffer from GPS, particularly the peg that connects [[Ro-Tor (Universe)|Ro-Tor]] to Superion's torso piece.<ref name="tfwsuper">[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-toy-discussion/300674-warning-universe-micromaster-superion-suffers-gold-plastic-syndrome.html TFW2005 thread about Micromaster Superion suffering from Gold Plastic Syndrome, with multiple reports]</ref>

{{-}}

====''Alternators''====
*'''[[Swerve_(G1)#Alternators|Swerve]]''''s elbow joints, the poseable fists, the thighs, and ''even'' the rocket launchers are all made out of gold plastic, but the leg joint takes the cake for being one of the easily snapped areas due to its tight construction.
*Like Swerve, '''[[Mirage_(G1)/toys#Alternators|Mirage]]''''s is also one of the minor sufferers given the usage of the swirly plastic.
{{-}}

====Unicron Trilogy====
* ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)|Cybertron]]'' '''[[Repugnus (Cybertron)#Cybertron|Repugnus]]'''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s robot mode "hands"/"Spinosaurus" head are made of black-painted gold plastic. Insertion of his flail weapon into his hands can cause his thin jaw parts to break into pieces. His thigh covers are made of the same plastic, but due to their static position and lack of moving parts are very, very unlikely to break. There were several unaltered re-releases of the original figure up until 2010, making it not the last figure with GPS to be manufactured (see below) but technically the last one to be commercialized.

{{-}}

====''Star Wars: Transformers''====
*'''[[General Grievous]]'''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> pelvis, arms and legs are all made out of gold plastic with many thin parts in the jointing, leaving them especially prone to breakage.

* '''[[Millennium Falcon]]/[[Han Solo]] & [[Chewbacca]]''' has problems with the metallic-brown plastic, especially the Chewbacca half, where his legs can lock up and ultimately snap off. His upper arms are also said to fall victim as well.<ref>http://www.seibertron.com/toys/gallery.php?id=2481&size=0&start=101</ref>

{{-}}
====Movie toys====
* '''[[Starscream (Movie)/toys#Deluxe Class toys|Protoform Starscream]]''' has plastic hinges that connect the two small wings to his body which are especially brittle, because the plastic housing the joints is thin and gives way over time to a crumbly mess. The thumbs are also prone to breakage.

* The massive ''Revenge of the Fallen'' '''[[Stratosphere#Toys|Stratosphere]]''' has gold plastic in his shoulders and thighs, and there have been reports of these parts crumbling. Additionally, more commonly-reported breakages are the toy's lower knees and the hinges connecting the wings—but neither of these parts are the ones made of gold plastic! Poor guy can't catch a break—or, well he can.

{{-}}
====Other notable instances====
* The "[[Vacuum metallizing|chrome]]" version of ''[[Diaclone]]'' '''[[Delta Magnus|Powered Convoy]]''', the [[pre-Transformer]] version of [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#Notes|Ultra Magnus]], has this problem with its swirly ''blue'' plastic. Given the age and relative rarity of this toy, this is particularly troublesome for hardcore collectors.

* While not a Transformer, ''[[G.I. Joe (franchise)|G.I. Joe]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s '''[[Serpentor]]''' is also known to suffer from this problem, especially through his hips, given the groin-breakage-prone leg construction of the standard 1980s ''G.I. Joe'' figure.

*''[[Transformers Unite Warriors|Unite Warriors]]'' '''[[Motormaster (G1)#Unite Warriors|Motormaster]]''' is prone to breakage on the waist due to his swirly gunmetal plastic.

==Toys often mistaken for having GPS==
A number of toys have gold parts that easily break not due to the plastic used, but due to structural problems with the part designs themselves.

* The ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)| Armada]]'' '''[[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#SuperBase|Super Base Optimus Prime]]''' figure's elbows/biceps are made of gold plastic, and the lower joint has been known to break very easily. However, the plastic doesn't exhibit the "crumbliness" typical of GPS; instead, it seems likely that the break occurs when the elbow joints are lined up for them to sit behind the combined mode's back. In this configuration, the red and blue joints don't have room to bend around each other. The way to alleviate this issue is to pull the shoulder out, ''then'' bend the top joint (the red one) first, before moving the arms in any other direction.
* ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]'' '''[[Scorponok (Energon)#Energon|Scorponok]]''' has pale gold plastic on the (largely painted) front panels of the shoulders, and moving the shoulders for transformation (particularly into jet mode) can cause the panels to tear in half. However, the plastic itself isn't the problem; rather, it seems to be the result of the toy's design, where the corners of the front panels aren't quite symmetrical, and the one with more clearance is on the opposite side. A [[Variant|running change]] saw these panels swapped to alleviate this issue. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHXKDmxeuHs Swapping the panels to the opposite sides], has a higher chance of reducing breakages.
* Another Scorponok, the [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|2007 ''Transformers'' movie]] [[Legends Class (2005)|Legends Class]] '''[[Scorponok (Movie)#Legends Class toys|Scorponok]]''', has a tail stinger made of soft and bendy golden plastic, which tends to harden over time and become prone to breaking. The cause of this problem seems to simply by the use of an inferior plasticizer, rather than traditional Gold Plastic Syndrome.

At some point during the great war, a vaccine for Gold Plastic Syndrome was developed by [[Red Alert (Animated)|Red Alert]]. {{storylink|Transformers Animated: The AllSpark Almanac II|The AllSpark Almanac II}} [[Swindle, Swindle and Swindle]] claimed to be the only licensee of the cure in the [[Nexus]] Cluster. {{storylink|Ask Vector Prime#Facebook|Swindle's Spiel, 2015/10/03}}

[[First Aid (G1)|First Aid]] contracted GPS during the war against the [[Cybertronian (faction)|Cybertronian Empire]]. The disease prevented him from properly combining into [[Defensor (G1)|Defensor]]. {{storylink|Ratchet (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Customization class G2 Ratchet bio}}

==Notes==

* ''Generation 2'' '''[[First Aid (G1)#Generation 2|First Aid]]''''s chest/combiner port and upper legs are made out of golden plastic. However, given the extreme rarity of this unreleased figure, with less then a dozen known to exist, it's unclear if they do suffer from GPS. It's recommended to never attempt combining it into Defensor, or (preferably) to never transform it in the first place, as no one wants to find out if an unreleased figure that can easily cost past four digits on the incredibly scarce occasions where it might appear for sale, will crumble into dust right before your eyes.

'''Dr. Fraud''' is a bot who, as far as he's concerned, is at the forefront of scientific discovery, even if he's just spitting out random nonsense and has absolutely no idea what the heck he's talking about, not that he'll ever admit to that. He once stated that heating up water causes it to become ice! However, the other bots have often questioned his "scientific method", causing the doc to become ''literally'' boiling mad, spewing chemicals all over!

Sure, some bots may think it was [[energon]] power that brought them to life, but '''Dr. Flaskenstein''' knows the truth. This mad scientist bot is certain (mostly) that it was one of their chemical concoctions that was responsible for the creation of the Botbots, even if nobody else believes it, what with it being, you know, ''temporally impossible''. In order to prove themselves right and have their genius recognized, the doctor has embarked on a series of experiments on non-bot objects, hoping to replicate the effects.

Along with the rest of the Science Alliance, Dr. Flaskenstein lived in the disused science education store, where they spent their time performing scientific experiments and half-baking inventions. Flaskenstein spent her time trying to get Eye-Goon to ''stop'' calling her "master", putting up with Face Ace's attempts at jokes, and conducting experiments into tonal shifts and octave differentials. As the mall began to suffer from overheating from the other BotBots partying too much, the Science Alliance noticed, but were unwilling to come forward because they felt their lack of social graces would make presenting this information in a way anyone wanted to hear difficult. One day, after another failed experiment, the Lost Bots appeared with a dire warning from the future, courtesy of the Alliance's trans-timestream communicator (which at present was still a work in progress). Apparently the mall was in danger and the BotBots needed to be warned before the damage became irreversible. Though Flaskenstein was still not convinced, [[Burgertron]] was sure if they just gave the cold, hard facts people would listen.

They didn't. In fact, the other BotBots were so incensed they pelted the Science Alliance with tomatoes and started partying ''harder''. Dejected, the Science Alliance were contacted by an even-more ragged future Burgertron, who gave them the message to play to their strengths. While present-day Burgertron thought the message was for him, the Alliance wondered if future Burgertron had meant their music skills. Ignoring Burgertron's plan (wisely, as it turned out), the Science Alliance once again tried to get their message through, in song form. This time, it worked, and all the Science Alliance became instant celebrities. However, as Flaskenstein had to explain to Burgertron, this according rise in social status meant they were now no longer able to hang out with the Lost Bots anymore. Then they headed off to another party, hosted by the [[Greaser Gang|Hunger Hubs]]. Sweet popularity! {{storylink|The Science Alliance (episode)|The Science Alliance}}

Transformers: Bumblebee (toyline)

2023-01-03T17:31:47Z

Shoutsuo: Removed the coming soon things from the deluxe class and voyager class of s s since they have already been released for a while now

{{disambig2|[[Bumblebee (film)|''Bumblebee'' movie]] toys|[[Bumblebee (Movie)]] toys|Bumblebee (Movie)/toys}}
{{Nav-Bumblebee}}

The '''''Transformers: Bumblebee''''' toyline coincides with the [[Bumblebee (film)|sixth film]] in the [[live-action film series]].
The toyline follows the same basis as the [[Transformers: The Last Knight (toyline)|previous film]]'s layout, with the majority of figures falling into two categories:

*The "Energon Igniters" line, a series of small-to-large toys that can activate [[gimmick]]s when used together with an [[energon core]], with a price-for-size scale similar to ''[[Transformers: Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]]''.
*Collector-focused figures from the ''[[Studio Series]]'' toyline.

There are also assorted other [[gimmick]] toys that don't fit into these [[play pattern]]s, or that are part of preexisting gimmick lines.
However, among these “misfit” figures, the unofficial but obvious flagship figure of the mass-retail line sits: The large, articulated, rather complicated and gimmick filled “Power Charge Bumblebee”. Compared to most other of the main line releases for the film, the Power Charge figure has more paint, articulation, complexity, and stability than its Energon Igniter counterparts.
==Hasbro ''Bumblebee'' toyline==
===Energon Igniters===
The "Energon Igniters" line is primarily focused on interaction with "energon cores" that unlock play features in a similar manner to [[Cyber Key]]s. The igniters plug into the back of the Speed Series figures in vehicle mode, and can be placed inside the larger figures in vehicle mode, often revealing extra weaponry. When the lever on top of the igniter is pressed down and then released, a wheel on the underside of the igniter will propel the figure forwards. Undocumented in all of their instructions, all power series and nitro series figures have a 5mm port on their robot mode back, for storage of the Energon cores they come with or are designed to use.

====Speed Series====
The equivalent of a Legion Class figure. Energon cores can be attached to the back of the vehicle via [[5 mm post]]s.

===Studio Series===
{{main|Studio Series}}
Presumably owing to the smaller number of characters in ''Bumblebee'' compared to other ''Transformers'' movies, the collector-focused toys of ''Bumblebee'' characters were released as part of the ongoing ''Studio Series'' line of movie toys. All toys branded as ''Bumblebee'' tie-ins are listed below.

==TakaraTomy==
In TakaraTomy's ''Bumblebee'' (バンブルビー) and ''Studio Series'' (スタジオシリーズ) lines, all figures are identical to their Hasbro counterparts, forgoing Takara's past practice of using more movie-accurate paint jobs. This is most likely due to the line being an official collaboration between Hasbro and [[TakaraTomy]]. However, there is one exclusive figure for the ''Bumblebee'' toyline, out of the ''two'' figures released. TakaraTomy and Hasbro also released a version of Bumblebee of the ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece#Masterpiece Movie Series|Masterpiece Movie Series]]'' line.

Transformers: The Last Knight (toyline)

2023-01-03T07:39:03Z

Shoutsuo: Now links to TLK thrash

{{Nav-tlk}}

The '''''Transformers: The Last Knight''''' toyline coincides with the [[Transformers: The Last Knight (film)|fifth film]] in [[Michael Bay]]'s [[live-action film series]].

The toyline follows the same basis as the [[Transformers: Age of Extinction (toyline)|previous film]]'s layout, with the majority of figures falling into two sublines:
*Turbo Changers, which encompasses most of the simple-to-transform toys aimed towards younger children.
*Premier Edition, encompassing the "traditional" Deluxe, Voyager and Leader pricepoints, for older children and adult fans.

Along with the standard ''The Last Knight'' toys, Takara also released a toyline called '''''Movie The Best''''' to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the live action film series.

==Toys==
===Turbo Changers===
====[[Tiny Turbo Changers]]====
Tiny transforming figures based on characters from the entire [[live-action film series]], packaged in blind bags. The reverse of the bags feature both a small clear window on the lower right and an embossed letter on the lower left, allowing easy identification of which figure you're getting.

====1-Step Turbo Changers====
A slightly different name for prior lines' One-Step Changers, with several molds reused from the ''Age of Extinction'' line. All of the figures feature flame deco printed in UV-reactive invisible ink, which can be revealed with the UV "Cyberfire" light in the large Mega 1-Step Turbo Changer [[Dragonstorm]] figure. Despite appearing as prefixes in several online retailers' listings for the [[wave]] 1 figures, the term "Cyberfire" doesn't actually appear as a gimmick call-out on the toys' packaging until wave 3, including packaging [[variant]]s for additional shipments of figures that debuted in earlier waves.

====Knight Armor Turbo Changers====
Broadly similar to the Three-Step Changers of ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 toyline)|Robots in Disguise]]'', these larger figures feature a unified "Knight Armor" gimmick with spring-loaded deployable helmets.

===Premier Edition===
The ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]''-type figures for ''The Last Knight'' are collected under the ''Premier Edition'' banner, explicitly marketed to the adult collector as well as older children. As part of this approach, Deluxe figures are packaged in window boxes, akin to Hasbro's other collector-oriented lines ''[[Marvel Comics|Marvel]] Legends'' and ''[[Star Wars (franchise)|Star Wars]]: The Black Series''.

Several molds for all size classes are reused from the ''Age of Extinction'' line.

====Legion Class====
Taking a cue from the [[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|2008 ''Universe'' line]], wave 1 features redecos of sculpts from ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'', ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'', and ''[[Beast Hunters (toyline)|Beast Hunters]]'' ''[[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]]'' while subsequent waves feature entirely new sculpts.

===Exclusives===
Similar to ''Age of Extinction'' before it, ''The Last Knight'' had different "themes" assigned to different chains in the United States, this time with each of them being turned into its own decicated [[subline imprint]] complete with their own logos and unique packaging designs. And then a lot of these figures were also offered to different retailers in other international markets.

In theory, that is. The execution differed drastically in some instances, with some toys only being available online, and others ending up in different venues than originally intended. In more than one instance, international releases were easier to find than the "main" US release, despite receiving little to no advertising.

====Mission to Cybertron====
A Cybertron-themed exclusive [[subline imprint|subline]], with figure decoes featuring [[Cyberglyphics]] writing and cards that form a bigger picture of Megatron and Optimus fighting on Cybertron, with Cyberglyphics on the back. ''Mission to Cybertron'' was the only subline imprint that proceeded more or less as planned, being officially made available as [[Toys"R"Us]] exclusives in the United States, Canada, Australia and Hasbro's Asian markets. For the Christmas 2017 season, the figures were also made available at Toys"R"Us stores in European markets such as the United Kingdom, Germany, France and Spain.

====Autobots Unite====
An exclusive subline primarily themed around [[Hot Rod (DOTM)|Hot Rod]], and to a lesser extent his partnership with [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]]. Originally, these figures were solicited as [[Walmart]] exclusives, but thus far, only the Flip & Change figures have actually been found in stores, while Legion and Deluxe Class Hot Rod, the 1-Step 2-pack and the Legion 2-packs have only been available via Walmart's website. Instead, the latter three have been found at discounter Ross.

Other international venues include: General retail in (at least some of) Hasbro's Asian markets, Walmart in Canada, Asda in the United Kingdom, Dráčik in Slovakia and the Czech Republic, Walmart and its subsidiary Bodega Aurrera in Mexico, Prisma supermarkets in Finland, Líder supermarkets in Chile, Tottus in Peru and ICA Hemma in Sweden. In the Netherlands, Deluxe Hot Rod was available at Otto Simon and its subsidiary Top1Toys, while the 2-packs were available from Bart Smit and Intertoys (both owned by Blokker Holding). In June 2018 the Legion Class figures began appearing in B&M Bargains stores and the Flip & Change figures in Home Bargains stores in the UK.

And to make matters even more confusing, general retail versions of both Legion and Deluxe Hot Rod in standard, non-"Autobots Unite" packaging were listed by several US-based online retailers, including Walmart, with the Deluxe figure eventually being released in China.

====Reveal the Shield====
An exclusive subline with a unified gimmick of "hidden image" decoes, revealed by using clear red plastic weapons as filters in the manner of the original [[The Transformers (franchise)|Generation 1]] [[Tech Spec]]s. Unlike "Mission to Cybertron" and "Autobots Unite", "Reveal the Shield" was never officially announced by Hasbro, but early information via Asian sources indicated the subline would be exclusive to [[Target]] stores in the United States, which is where the Tiny Turbo Changer 3-pack and the 1-Step Turbo Changer 6-pack actually ended up. Voyager Class Optimus Prime, meanwhile, ended up as a [[Toys"R"Us]] exclusive in the United States instead, and even lacks the "Reveal the Shield" logo from the packaging for his US, Asian and Latin American release.

In the United Kingdom, the entire subline was exclusive to [[Argos]] stores, including Voyager Class Optimus Prime (complete with the "Reveal the Shield" logo on his packaging) and the role-play masks; in France, it was exclusive to Carrefour (again including the role-play masks); and in Australia, the 1-Step Turbo Changer 6-pack was exclusive to BigW stores. The 3-pack was also released in Hong Kong and Peru, the 6-pack was released in Chile, and Voyager Optimus Prime was available in several Asian markets and at Falabella stores in Colombia.

==Notes==
*A [[Transformers: Age of Extinction (toyline)#Notes|well]]-[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 toyline)#Notes|known]] [[Titans Return (toyline)#Notes|problem]] occurred again: Various retailers around the world keep listing some of the price points under older working names. Since not all of the price points explicitly identify their respective assortment names on the toys' packaging, this once again resulted in some confusion as to what exactly the price points and gimmicks' correct, final, official names are:
**The "Knight Armor Turbo Changers" are also referred to as "Armor Up Turbo Changers" by some retailers around the world, even though all [[multilingual packaging]] [[variant]]s call out the "Knight Armor" gimmick in several languages (even spelled "Armo'''u'''r" for the United Kingdom) in addition to the general sub-line name "Turbo Changer".
**On a similar note, some retailers' listings for the 1-Step Turbo Changers also give the individual figures' names "Cyberfire" prefixes, referring to the gimmick mentioned above, although that prefix doesn't appear anywhere on the packaging. It ''does'' finally appear (in the form of a separate logo) on the packaging for the third wave of 1-Step Turbo Changers.
*Similar to the previous film's toy line, Hasbro assigned code names to the toys, which were used by online retailers around the world, sometimes even after official photos depicting the toys in their packaging had been added to those listings, and sometimes even persisting long after the toys had been released at retail. Whereas the ''Age of Extinction'' line had used names related to the [[W:Rocky (film series)|''Rocky'' film series]] as code names for the various characters, ''The Last Knight'' has two known sets of code names:
**One of them (presumably the earlier one) simply numbers all figures from the various general retail assortments in sequence, ranging from "TRA 1" (Knight Armor Turbo Changer Optimus Prime) up to at least "TRA 28" (Deluxe Class Dinobot Slash), although the corresponding code names for some of the later figures are currently unknown so it's likely the numbers go even higher than that.
**The other set (presumably the later one) assigns each character a name derived from a celestial body (in a very broad meaning of the term), with three characters even being assigned two different names each, depending on whether the toy was a new sculpt or redecoed from a previous line:
{{collist|3|
:::*Barricade: "Mars"
:::*Berserker: "Gamma Ray" / "Green Gamma Ray"
:::*Bumblebee (new sculpt): "Saturn"
:::*Bumblebee (redeco): "Gas Giant"

Garara (Go!)

:''Garara is a [[Predacon (Prime)|Predacon]] from the [[Triple Combination: Transformers Go! (franchise)|Go!]] portion of the [[Aligned continuity family]].''
{{Twoimages|File:GararaRobotmode.jpg|w1=140
|File:Go-toy Garara Beast Mode.jpg|w2=140|float=right}}

'''Garara''' (ガララ) is a [[Jaki]], one of five drone Predacons that the [[Four Oni]] can manifest from ordinary objects. Garara forms the arm of [[Goradora]]. Garara is most likely controlled by [[Gaidora (Go!)|Gaidora]].

==Fiction==
===''Go!'' cartoon===
In the battle for the [[Isami Tatewaki|Tatewakis]]' [[Legendisc]], [[Gaidora (Go!)|Gaidora]] formed the Jaki, including Garara, from nearby automobiles. They were sent to attack the [[Swordbot Samurai Team]], who made short work of the Jaki. Furious, Gaidora, commanded his minions to merge into the fierce [[Goradora]], but the combined robot was ultimately defeated by the might of the Swordbots' combinations. {{storylink|Triple Combination! Swordbot - Samurai!}} Another Garara was formed at [[Nagoya Castle]] with another set of Jaki by [[Judora (Go!)|Judora]] to fight the [[Swordbot Shinobi Team]]. When they also easily knocked away the Jaki, Judora ordered the Jaki to form Goradora. Goradora was in turn defeated by GoGekisou, one of the Shinobi Team's combinations. {{storylink|Triple Combination! Swordbot - Ninja!}}

When Budora went to Japan's past in search of Legendiscs and to conquer history, he was followed by the Samurai Team. To fight on his behalf, Budora summoned Jaki from the earth. They, again, were of little trouble to the Samurai and formed Goradora only to be destroyed by GoJinbu. {{Storylink|Pursue!

Despite forming the more powerful Black Goradora, they were defeated once by GoSensui, and again by GoHishou. {{storylink|Discover! The Legendiscs!}}

The Predacons fought against the Samurai yet again, this time in Japan's [[Bakumatsu period]]. Bakudora took a shot at summoning the Jaki and having them form Black Goradora, only for them to be felled once more, this time by GoGanoh’s Ganenbaku technique. {{storylink|The Invincible Swordsman - Ryōma Sakamoto!?}}

The Jaki were called forth one last time by Judora when he battled the Samurai Team in the late Heian era. After the Autobots had defeated the individual Jaki, Gaidora used power he had previously acquired from Dragotron to absorb them into his body, increasing his size to gigantic proportions. But even with the Jaki's might added to his own, he was no match for the Autobots' GoKenzan configuration. {{storylink|Showdown! Benkei Musashibō!}}

[[File:Goradora Go Samurai ep 1.jpg|thumb|right|450px|Ready for a 5,000-word essay on what "Goradora" actually means? Then you've come to the right place!]]
'''Goradora''' (ゴラードラ ''Gorādora'') is the combination of the five [[Jaki]] Predacons. There are presumably a lot of him, as the Jaki are formed out of ordinary objects by the [[Four Oni]].

Goradora is formed from:
*[[Dorara]] (torso)
*[[Barara]] (right arm)
*[[Garara (Go!)|Garara]] (left arm)
*[[Jurara]] (right leg)
*[[Burara]] (left leg)

==Fiction==
===''Go!'' cartoon===
In the battle for the [[Isami Tatewaki|Tatewakis]]' [[Legendisc]], [[Gaidora (Go!)|Gaidora]] formed the Jaki from nearby automobiles. When they failed against the [[Swordbot Samurai Team]]. Gaidora commanded his minions to merge into the fierce Goradora. Fearful for his new friends, Isami Tatewaki pleaded with somebody to do ''something'', and his Legendisc allowed the Samurai Team to combine into [[Kenzan|GoKenzan]]. With his Cutting Lightning Cross attack, GoKenzan was able to take out Goradora in one attack. Again, Gaidora had his scattered Jaki form Goradora. Goradora took to the skies, necessitating the Swordbots to unite into [[Jinbu|GoJinbu]], who sent the Jaki to the ground with the Thunderclap Counter-Strike. After Gaidora asked them to use their strength, the Jaki combined into Goradora yet again. Goradora put up more of a fight, and thus [[Ganoh|GoGanoh]] was formed. With the Powerful Blaze Blast from GoGanoh and another Cutting Lightning Cross from GoKenzan, Goradora was seemingly put down for good. {{storylink|Triple Combination! Swordbot - Samurai!}}

Elsewhere in the meantime, [[Judora (Go!)|Judora]] formed another set of Jaki to battle the [[Swordbot Shinobi Team]] at [[Nagoya Castle]]. They too formed into Goradora, who fell against the Shinobi Team's combined form as [[Gekisoumaru|GoGekisou]]. After disassembling because of GoGekisou's attacks, Goradora was formed again in a much larger size. This proved ineffective, as this Goradora was destroyed by GoGekisou's Strike Land Beast Fang attack. {{storylink|Triple Combination! Swordbot - Ninja!}}

[[Image:BlackGoradora2.jpg|right|300px|thumb|He's a [[black repaint]] now! He must be ''EVEN EVILER''!]]
After travelling into the past and being confronted by the Samurai Team who followed, [[Budora (Go!)|Budora]] summoned the Jaki and had them combine into Goradora. This Goradora fell to GoJinbu. {{storylink|Pursue! The Legendiscs!}} Similarly, Judora travelled back to the Sengoku era, only to be pursued by the Shinobi Team. Despite forming the more powerful Black Goradora out of the Jaki, they were defeated once by GoSensui, and again by GoHishou. {{storylink|Discover! The Legendiscs!}}

In yet another era of the past, [[Bakudora]] summoned the Jaki and had them combine into the "Black Jaki Combination" too. This Black Goradora was defeated by GoGanoh. {{storylink|The Invincible Swordsman - Ryōma Sakamoto!?}}

*Goradora is unusual in that the "do" syllable in his name does not have a long "o" sound like the [[Four Oni]]. Instead, the long vowel in his name is the first "a".
*In the 2013 Transformers Special DVD, the Goradora figure appears cast entirely in black. Whether this was merely a [[Prototype|test shot]] or indeed a canceled promotional release is unknown.

The combined form of five cloned Predacons, '''Abominus''' is the end result of [[Shockwave (WFC)|Shockwave]]'s questionably logical hypothesis that giving dangerous prehistoric creatures the ability to merge into a ''bigger'' dangerous prehistoric creature might make them easier to control. Instead, Abominus is an unstoppable engine of destruction with enormous power. Who could have predicted that?

He is the combined form of:
*[[Hun-Gurrr (Prime)|Hun-Gurrr]] (leader<ref>According to the toys' [[Tech Spec]]s, Rippersnapper outranks Hun-Gurrr by a considerable margin—7 to 2.

: While this combination is not documented in their [[instructions]], ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)#BH|Prime: Beast Hunters]]'' Abominus is formed by combining the five Predacons, who were available separately in the first three waves of [[Cyberverse (toyline)#Series 3|Series 3 ''Cyberverse'']] Legion Class toys. [[Hun-Gurrr (Prime)#Cyberverse|Hun-Gurrr]] forms the torso, [[Twinstrike (Prime)#Cyberverse|Twinstrike]] and [[Windrazor (Prime)#Cyberverse|Windrazor]] can form either arm, and [[Rippersnapper (Prime)#Cyberverse|Predacon Rippersnapper]] and [[Blight (Prime)#Cyberverse|Blight]] can form either leg (official art places Twinstrike and Blight on the left and Windrazor and Rippersnapper on the right). Their individual weapons can combine in many different ways to form larger weapons for Abominus to wield via [[C joint|3 mm post]]. Abominus deviates from his [[Abominus (G1)|G1 counterpart]] in that his arm and leg components are inverted.

[[File:TwinstrikeBH-wallpaper.jpg|thumb|upright=1.67]]
[[Shockwave (WFC)|Shockwave]] had hoped that giving '''Twinstrike''' (aka '''Sinnertwin''') an extra head would result in a higher intelligence stat. Unfortunately, it just doubled the Predacon's violent rage and seething impatience. Though Twinstrike isn't smart or particularly good at anything, he is amazingly courageous and strong, and his [[Piston Hammer]] isn't anything to sneeze at, either.

He and several of his fellow Predacons combine to form [[Abominus (Prime)|Abominus]].

==Fiction==
===''Full of Fire!''===
Twinstrike joined five other Predacons in an attack on the Autobots. Unfortunately the Autobots had just built themselves new weapons, which proved to be more than effective against the Predacons. Twinstrike tried to attack [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]] by smashing a rock, only to be hit by the Autobot's [[Eagleshot Bow]]. The Predacons were beaten into a retreat, and withdrew back to the ''[[Trypticon (WFC)|Nemesis]]''. {{storylink|Full of Fire!}}

While at a carnival, Sinnertwin picked up a mallet dropped by [[Quick Kick]]. Eying the "ring the bell" strongman game that the [[G.I.

:Part of the first wave of ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)|Prime:]] [[Beast Hunters]]'' [[Cyberverse (toyline)#Series 3|Series 3 ''Cyberverse'']] Legion Class toys, Twinstrike transforms into a twin-headed dragon, and comes with a "Piston Hammer" which can also be used as a cannon. His dragon head hands can hold the weapon via the latter's three [[C joint|3mm post]]s, and he and the weapon feature numerous 3mm mounting points.

:His [[instructions]] neglect to mention that his feet should be rotated during transformation. Also not called out in the instructions, Twinstrike combines with ''Cyberverse'' [[Hun-Gurrr (Prime)#Cyberverse|Hun-Gurrr]], [[Windrazor (Prime)#Cyberverse|Windrazor]], [[Rippersnapper (Prime)#Cyberverse|Predacon Rippersnapper]], and [[Blight (Prime)#Cyberverse|Blight]] to form [[Abominus (Prime)#Beast Hunters|Abominus]], with Twinstrike forming the left arm.

:The figure suffers from a [[design flaw]]; the rotating leg armor does not pull out ''quite'' far enough, lacking the clearance to cleanly swivel from lower to upper leg. A little bit of force will get into place, but do it enough, and the pin that holds it in place is likely to pop out.

:His hammer accessory was also used, in varying colors, by [[Prowl (WFC)#Cyberverse|Prowl]], [[Blight (Prime)#Cyberverse|Blight]], and [[Rot Gut (Prime)|Rot Gut]]. This toy was [[redeco]]ed into ''[[Triple Combination: Transformers Go! (toyline)|Go!]]'' [[Garara (Go!)|Garara]] and [[Thrash (TLK)|''The Last Knight'' Thrash]].

**The ultimate real "Autobot Carblast" case - renaming "Hot Spot" into "Hot Zone" ''and'' adding an "Autobot" prefix - was used only once; the [[Titanium Series]] figure is simply named "Hot Zone" without a prefix.
**Oddly, the [[Transformers: Generations (toyline)#Exclusives ("GDO")|''Generations'' "GDO"]] figure's packaging, including the [[bio]], consistently refers to him as "Protectobot Hot Spot", while the [[instructions]] identify him as "Hotspot™". Later figures consistently use the "Protectobot" prefix.

===Unusual one-off prefixes not required for concurrent/subsequent toys===
*All of the ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' [[Constructicon (G1)|Constructicon]]s from the [[Devastator (G1)#Generations|Devastator]] giftset have a "Constructicon" prefix even though only Hook and Scavenger would need them, likely done for consistency across the team. The ''[[Vintage|Vintage G1]]'' reissue of the Constructicons gives only the aforementioned Hook and Scavenger prefixes, as the original Generation 1 Devastator giftset never attached prefixes to the Constructicons' names. Though not part of a giftset, the ''Studio Series'' Constructicons all have the prefix as well.
*[[Bombshell (G1)|Bombshell]]: "Insecticon Bombshell" only for the ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' ''[[Transformers: Platinum Edition|Platinum Edition]]'' reissue; the concurrently released ''Generations Combiner Wars'' Legends Class figure was simply named "Bombshell" without a prefix.
*[[Fireflight (G1)|Firestrike]]: "Autobot Firestrike" only for the ''[[Bot Shots (franchise)|Bot Shots]]'' figure; the ''[[Kre-O]]'' [[Kreon]] was simply named "Firestrike", and Hasbro also used the name without a prefix for their ''[[Nerf]]'' line.
*[[Flak (TF 2010)|Flak]]: "Autobot Flak" only for the [[Transformers (2010 toyline)|2010 ''Transformers'']] toy. Both [[BotCon 2009]] [[Flak (G1)#Timelines|Flak]] (released a year earlier) and ''Dark of the Moon'' [[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]] [[Flak (TF 2010)#Dark of the Moon|Flak]] (released a year later) were simply named "Flak" without a prefix.
*[[Grimlock (G1)/toys|Grimlock]]: "Dinobot Grimlock" only for the ''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'' Voyager Class toy, likely for consistency with the rest of the [[Dinobot (G1)|Dinobot]]s. It should be noted that each word has an individual ® claim ("Dinobot® Grimlock®") rather than the name being one compound trademark.
*[[Ironhide (disambiguation)|Ironhide]]: "Autobot Ironhide" only for the ''[[Studio Series]]'' figure; the ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege]]'' figure was simply named "Ironhide" without a prefix.
*[[Leadfoot (PCC)|Leadfoot]]: "Classic Leadfoot" only for the ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' rerelease of his ''[[Speed Stars]]'' toy, presumably to distinguish him from the ''Dark of the Moon'' [[Wrecker]] of the [[Leadfoot (DOTM)|same name]].
*[[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys|Optimus Prime]]: "Autobot Optimus Prime" for a single release of the ''[[Transformers (2007 toyline)|Movie]]'' Voyager Class toy with "battle damage" deco that was only available in Asia and from US-based online retailers. In this case, the "Autobot" prefix was probably only intended to distinguish this release from all the numerous other "Optimus Prime" toys from the ''Movie'' line.
*[[Reverb (Movie)|Reverb]]: "Decepticon Reverb" only for the unreleased [[Target]] [[exclusive]] ''Movie'' Scout (intended to be released in 2008). ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)|Cybertron]]'' [[Reverb (Cybertron)|Reverb]] (who had his last toy released in 2006, as part of the [[Recon Mini-Con Team|Shadow Recon Mini-Con Team]]), ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' [[Reverb (ROTF)|Reverb]] (2009) and ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' [[Human Alliance]] [[Reverb (DOTM)|Reverb]] (2011) were all simply named "Reverb", without a prefix.
*[[Sideways (ROTF)|Sideways]]: "Decepticon Sideways" for a [[Toys"R"Us]] exclusive ''Revenge of the Fallen'' two-pack with [[Wheelie (ROTF)|Wheelie]] that was released in Europe. Presumably, this was simply because "Decepticon Sideways" sounds better together with "Autobot Wheelie" than a mere "Sideways" without the prefix.
*[[Sinnertwin (disambiguation)|Sinnertwin]]: "Terrorcon Sinnertwin" for the instructions of his ''Power of the Primes'' toy, but his packaging and card render his name with no prefix.
*[[Strafe (disambiguation)|Strafe]]: "Dinobot Strafe" for ''some'' ''[[Transformers: Age of Extinction (toyline)|Age of Extinction]]'' toys; the majority of them, however, are simply named "Strafe" without a prefix.
*[[Wheeljack (G1)/toys|Wheeljack]]: "Autobot Wheeljack" for the [[KB Toys]] exclusive "G1" [[Spy Changer|Spychanger]]... but only on the cardbacks of the entire Spychanger lineup. On the front side of his own card, he was simply named "Wheeljack", without a prefix. Since then, multiple "Wheeljack" toys have been released without a prefix.
*All Deluxe and Voyager figures from the [[War for Cybertron Trilogy (toyline)#Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy .282020-present.29|War for Cybertron Trilogy]] toyline use faction prefixes.
*All other prefixes used for same-[[character]] [[redeco]]s of toys that didn't require a prefix for their original release.

===Cosmetic prefixes that don't actually allow Hasbro to use a trademark===
*[[Erector (G1)|Erector]] was referred to as "Autobot Erector" for his [[Transformers Hall of Fame|2011 Hall of Fame]] nomination [http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/en_US/discover/movie-news/TRANSFORMERS-HALL-OF-FAME-2011-Nominee-ERECTOR.cfm bio]. As the word "Erector" in the domain of toys is ''thoroughly'' trademarked by {{w|Meccano Ltd}} for {{w|Erector Set}} construction toys (they even own it [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77878820 specifically for toy robots!]), this was something of an empty gesture, as putting "Autobot" in front of his name wouldn't actually allow Hasbro to use that trademark in the field of toys. (Granted, a write-up on a webpage isn't actually something that you can trademark...)

==TakaraTomy==
Japanese trademark law has apparently changed in recent years, in a way very similar to American trademark law. As a consequence, TakaraTomy also started using prefixes with one of the last ''[[The Transformers Collection|Transformers Collection]]'' [[Generation 1 reissues|reissues]], followed by several more cases in ''[[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (toyline)|Henkei!]]''.

TakaraTomy's versions of the ''[[Transformers (2007 toyline)|Movie]]'', ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge]]'' and ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Darkside Moon]]'' toy lines used the same names as their Hasbro counterparts for the most part, including "Autobot" and "Decepticon" prefixes for a lot of names (though [[Skids (ROTF)|Skids]], [[Springer (ROTF)|Springer]] and [[Devastator (ROTF)|Devastator]] didn't require "Autobot" or "Constructicon" prefixes). However, TakaraTomy also added ''more'' prefixes for toys whose Hasbro versions ''didn't'' have prefixes (or, in one case, for giving a [[redeco]] a ''[[The Transformers (franchise)|Generation 1]]''-based Hasbro name that is unavailable to Hasbro altogether). This usually only applies to listings of these toys by online stores and in Japanese hobby magazines in katakana. For toys with Hasbro counterparts, the English names on the packaging were unchanged from the Hasbro versions.

With ''[[Transformers Animated (toyline)|Transformers Animated]]'' and ''[[Transformers United]]'', TakaraTomy once again mostly followed Hasbro's naming choices (although ''Animated'' [[Bulkhead (Animated)|Bulkhead]] and [[Ironhide (Animated)|Ironhide]] were renamed into "Ironhide" and "Armorhide", respectively, and the ''United'' version of [[Straxus (G1)|Straxus]] was released under that name rather than Hasbro's substitute name "Darkmount"). Once again, some names featured more prefixes that either were not required by or differed from their Hasbro counterparts. On the toys' packaging, the names were spelled with those prefixes both in English and in katakana.

*[[Barricade (Movie)/toys|Barricade]]: Decepticon Barricade, Interrogator Barricade, Barricade & Frenzy

*[[Blurr (disambiguation)|Blurr]]: Autobot Blurr
*[[Booster X10]]: Decepticon Booster X10

*[[Scrapmetal (ROTF)|Scrapmetal]]: Decepticon Scrapmetal

*[[Wildrider (disambiguation)|Wildrider]]: Stuntron Wildrider, Stunt Wildrider (previously announced as "Stunticon Wildrider")
*[[Wipe-Out]]: Decepticon Wipe Out
{{Note|Since "N.E.S.T." was used as a standard prefix for the TakaraTomy counterparts of the ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|N.E.S.T. Global Alliance]]'' [[subline imprint]] including toys whose names ''definitely'' didn't require a prefix (such as "N.E.S.T. [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#Alliance|Alliance Bumblebee]]" or "N.E.S.T. [[Ironhide (Movie)/toys#Recon|Recon Ironhide]]"), it's hard to say whether "N.E.S.T. [[Brawn (ROTF)|Brawn]]", "N.E.S.T. [[Bludgeon (ROTF)|Bludgeon]]", "N.E.S.T. [[Dirge (Movie)|Dirge]]", "N.E.S.T. [[Scattorshot (ROTF)|Scattorshot]]", "N.E.S.T. [[Mindwipe (ROTF)|Mindwipe]]" and "N.E.S.T. [[Skystalker (ROTF)|Skystalker]]" required the prefix for trademark reasons or not. The only ''certain'' cases were names that had previously required a different prefix (''Animated'' "[[Lockdown (Animated)|Decepticon Lockdown]]") or had a particularly clunky prefix ("N.E.S.T. Autobot Ratchet", "N.E.S.T. Scout Brakedown").}}

For the ''[[Transformers Device Label|Device Label]]'' line, which falls into a different product category than "toys", TakaraTomy also needed prefixes for some names:
*[[Grimlock (disambiguation)|Grimlock]]: Device Grimlock
*[[Ravage (disambiguation)|Jaguar]]: Device Jaguar

Toys"R"Us

[[File:OnlyAtToysRUsLogo.jpg|right|upright=1.95|thumb|Toys weЯe us.]]

'''Toys"R"Us''' (stylistically '''ToysЯUs''' in the logo) was one of the world's biggest toy retailer chains, based in the [[United States of America|United States]] but with branches in many other countries. According to various sources, it accounted for anywhere from 15 to 20% of major toymakers' sales.

Over the years, they carried many [[exclusive]] ''Transformers'' [[toy]]s, in addition to regular mass retail releases. Many of those exclusives have been carried not only by US retailers, but also by international Toys"R"Us branches.

[[Japan]] also has its own branch of Toys"R"Us (トイザらス ''Toizarasu''), which has its own exclusive toys from [[TakaraTomy]], independent of the toys [[Hasbro]] provided Western Toys"R"Us stores with.

==History==
Originally founded by Charles P. Lazarus as Children's Supermart in 1948, the store later changed its focus entirely to toys. By 1957, Lazarus came up with the tagline "Toys"R"Us", eventually operating several additional stores under the Children's Supermart brand. Nine years later, the company was acquired by Interstate Department Stores, Inc., who already owned the toy store chain Children's Bargain Town USA, which featured the original version of Geoffrey the Giraffe as its mascot. Following the bankruptcy of Interstate Department Stores in 1974, Lazarus himself took control of the bankrupt corporation and rebranded the merged Children's Bargain Town USA/Children's Supermart company into "Toys"R"Us", which subsequently grew into the biggest toy store chain in the United States, eventually expanding into other markets around the globe to the point where the company was considered a prime example of a "category killer".<ref name="abandoned">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNSPl4YsQQ8 "Abandoned - Toys R Us"] by Youtube channel Bright Sun Films.</ref>

After many decades of success, Toys"R"Us failed to realize the growing importance of the internet during the 1990s, and as a result added its own online store very late in the game. Following a disastrous 1999 holiday shopping season, during which the company fell behind on shipping online customer orders, it struck a ten-year deal with [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]], who would subsequently act as Toys"R"Us's online presence. Following a brief period of financial success that exceeded Amazon's expectations, the partnership was prematurely ended by Toys"R"Us after Amazon had allowed competing merchants to begin selling toys through the website, and following a lawsuit, Amazon paid Toys"R"Us $51 million in settlements. In 2006, Toys"R"Us reopened an independent website, but by that time, the damage had already been done.<ref name="amazon">Alison Griswold: [https://qz.com/1080389/a-dot-com-era-deal-with-amazon-marked-the-beginning-of-the-end-for-toys-r-us/ "A dot-com era deal with Amazon marked the beginning of the end for Toys R Us"], Quartz, published September 2017.</ref>

In 2005, Toys"R"Us was bought out by venture capitalist firms including Bain Capital, and as a result, the chain was saddled with a ''massive'' debt when the cost of paying back the loan used to buy the chain was then dumped onto it, with interest. Despite rebounding sales-wise and making a profit above its nominal operating expenses, the sheer size of the debt was too much, and Toys"R"Us eventually declared bankruptcy on [[September 18]], [[2017]], leading to their planned liquidation, resulting in all stores in the United States to be closed by [[June 29]], [[2018]].

Operations in other markets were also affected, though not all cases ended in all-out job losses: The United Kingdom division entered administration in February 2018, with the last remaining stores being closed on [[April 24]] of the same year; the Australian division entered administration in May 2018, with the last remaining stores expected to close in July; and in Portugal and Spain, Toys"R"Us declared bankruptcy in March 2018, with the final fate of those divisions still uncertain. The Canadian division, which was still profitable by that point, was bought out by Fairfax Financial Holdings in April 2018 (with the takeover completed in May), who are continuing operations under the original branding. The divisions in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, which were also still profitable, were taken over by Irish family-owned toy giant Smyths in April 2018, who rebranded all stores in those three countries into "Smyths" in 2019. Operations in Asia continue as usual for the time being.

And in the middle of all these tumultuous times, the original Toys"R"Us founder Charles Lazarus, who had parted ways with the company in 1994, died on March 24, 2018, at age 94.

The Toys"R"Us brand is now owned by Tru Kids.

===Commercial appearances===
At a Toys"R"Us store in a [[Quadwal]] stream where toys are sentient, Snackin' Sara the {{w|Baby Alive}} toy informed an [[Optimus Prime (WFC)/toys#Robots in Disguise|unboxed Optimus Prime toy]] about the store's Price Match guarantee, wherein if Optimus was found at a lower price at another retailer, Toys"R"Us would match their prices. The Optimus toy was confused as to the existence of another one of himself and was advised by Sara to look to his left. When he did so, both he and his doppelganger were distraught at their existence, a panic which soon spread to his entire shelf, fully populated by Optimi. {{storylink|Commercial#2015_2|Toys"R"Us Commercial}}

==Notes==
*Toys"R"Us was also supposed to carry a [[redeco]] of ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' [[Jetfire (Armada)|Jetfire]] done up as a ''[[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1]]'' [[Astrotrain (G1)|Astrotrain]] homage that would have been released as a ''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' toy named [[Astrotrain (Cybertron)|Spacewarp]], together with redecos of the ''Armada'' [[Space Mini-Con Team]]. Ultimately, however, Toys"R"Us backed out of the deal, and Spacewarp was never released. While the Space Team redecos remain unreleased to this very day ([[TakaraTomy|Takara]] claims that the [[mold]]s have become unusable), the planned Spacewarp deco was later used as the basis for the [[Transformers Collectors' Club|Collectors' Club]] exclusive [[Astrotrain (Cybertron)|Astrotrain]] redeco of ''Armada'' Jetfire, with a new head sculpt.
*As of 2019, the Canadian Toys"R"Us branch has picked up the rights to the US [[Target]] exclusives, beginning with the ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege]]'' toyline.

Earth is a planet literally teeming with organic life forms. Millions of genera, of all shapes and sizes, inhabit the planet, and a [[Transformer|Cybertronian]] might scan any of them for a potential [[alternate mode]]. Some genera, however, are extremely popular with Cybertronians.

{{SITENAME}} has certain requirements for an animal to be listed here. There must be at least '''three unique toy molds''' (or in-fiction appearances, in the case of non-toy bodies/characters) that share the [[beast mode]]. There must also be at least '''one unique character per mold'''—a single character getting numerous revamps in similar bodies over the years would not count as a "popular mode."

Each mold is listed on its own line, with all different-character decoes/[[retool]]s on the same line. The list is (more or less) organized in chronological order of toy release or fictional appearance.

[[File:G1-Sinnertwin-boxart.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|My name is WAY cooler than yours.]]
Like his fellow Terrorcons, '''Sinnertwin''' (aka '''Twinstrike'''<ref name="twinstrike">"Twinstrike" was a substitute name for Sinnertwin that was technically only ever used in the [[Transformers Legends (mobile game)|''Transformers Legends'' mobile game]] in 2013, because the name "Sinnertwin" was not available to Hasbro as a [[trademark]] at the time and was also used for toys of Sinnertwin's [[Twinstrike (Prime)|counterpart]] from ''[[Transformers: Prime (franchise)|Transformers: Prime]]'' at the same time. No toy of ''Generation 1'' Sinnertwin was ever released under that name, and Hasbro finally got the name "Sinnertwin" back in 2018, in time for the ''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'' toy.</ref>) is a horrific insult to nature itself. Sinnertwin frequently patrols the Terrorcons' lair with the hope of finding anything unfortunate enough to be alive in his presence. Then comes the killing, and what with his multiple heads and sadistic nature, this is not something one would like to witness. Ironically, he's terrified of small creatures. Sinnertwin can combine with his fellow Terrorcons to form [[Abominus (G1)|Abominus]].

He has the most awesome name in Transformer history. No matter what [[Slayride]] says.

[[File:Grimnewbrain kup vs sintwin.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|"I've fought bigger monsters than you, you two-headed lizard!" "I've fought stronger Autobots than you, you four-wheeled vehicle!"]]
Sinnertwin, along with the rest of the Terrorcons, was first encountered when the Autobots went to [[Unicron/Generation 1|Unicron]]'s head to stop Galvatron from acquiring [[anti-electron]]s. During the battle, his two heads argued with each other over which one would get to take on a particular Autobot; he menaced [[Kup (G1)|Kup]], who claimed to have fought bigger monsters than Sinnertwin. When the Terrorcons seemed successful in overpowering the Autobots, Grimlock ran off and quickly created the [[Technobot (G1)|Technobots]]. Meeting these new opponents, the Terrorcons formed into Abominus and fought the Technobots' merged form of [[Computron (G1)|Computron]]. Unfortunately for them, the highly intelligent Autobot [[Combiner|gestalt]] defeated Abominus by vibrating, forcing Abominus to separate back into his component Terrorcons. {{storylink|Grimlock's New Brain}}

[[File:MoneyIsEverything Sinnertwin and Cutthroat.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.1|He's on the left.]]
He and the other Terrorcons aided the [[Quintesson]]s when they were dealing with smuggler [[Dirk Manus]] for a secret weapon. The Quintessons had installed a timer to regulate their activity as Abominus. When Hun-Gurrr complained that he was hungry, Sinnertwin suggested that he "rip metal" and "eat food". Hun-Gurrr, naturally enough, decided that those were fightin' words, and the two scuffled. Later, Sinnertwin used his two heads to prevent Marissa Fairborne from escaping. Shortly afterwards, the Terrorcons merged to counter the threat of the newly repaired Technobots. Computron defeated them again, this time by shorting out that timer to separate Abominus back into the individual Terrorcons. {{storylink|Money Is Everything (episode)|Money Is Everything}}

[[File:MoneyIsEverything Sinnertwin picks up Marissa.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|He's on the left ''and'' the right.]]
Fighting alongside Galvatron once again, Sinnertwin was one of the [[Primitive]]s summoned to fight [[Tornedron]], abandoning a battle on Earth's moon to answer the call of a mysterious voice from space. Sinnertwin joined the other Terrorcons in a last-ditch stand against the energy creature, but the group was surrounded and drained of their energy. They, like the rest of Tornedron's victims, were restored thanks to Grimlock's actions. {{storylink|Call of the Primitives}}

[[File:Call-of-the-primitives-sinnertwin-cutthroat.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.1|Back, and to the left.]]
Sinnertwin and the others were victorious over the Technobots when the latter attempted to stop the Terrorcons from stealing [[Mark Morgan|Dr. Morgan]]'s new heat resistant alloys from his lab, injuring his daughter [[Jessica Morgan|Jessica]] in the process. {{storylink|The Return of Optimus Prime, Part 1}} Sinnertwin was last seen fighting the Autobots both on Earth and later on Cybertron during Galvatron's full-scale attack on the Decepticons' former homeworld. {{storylink|The Rebirth, Part 1}} {{storylink|The Rebirth, Part 2}}

{{voiceactor|[[Masashi Ebara]] (Japanese)|[[John Culkin]] (English, Omni Productions dub)}}
[[File:Hmop Terrorcons.jpg|thumb|200px]]
In [[2011]], Sinnertwin and the Terrorcons journeyed to Cybertron over the long-abandoned Decepticon [[space bridge]]. They were part of the first wave of Galvatron's siege, hoping to gain control of [[Vector Sigma]]. Sinnertwin's team combined into Abominus to battle [[Superion (G1)|Superion]]. {{storylink|Four Warriors Come out of the Sky}} Later on, Abominus teamed up with his fellow combiners to wage war on their Autobot counterparts. Their victory seemed assured until the [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|Battleship Maximus]] swooped in and scattered the Decepticon combiners. They barely survived the encounter. {{storylink|The Mystery of Planet Master}} On Earth, Sinnertwin and the Terrorcons intervened on [[Hot Rod (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Hot Rod]]'s search for the [[Matrix of Leadership]]. [[Chromedome (G1)|Chromedome]] and the Autobot [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmasters]] kept the Terrorcons busy so that Hot Rod could complete his mission. Even after the Terrorcons formed Abominus, the Headmasters stood against them, and the arrival of Computron swung the odds firmly on the Autobots' side. Abominus was last seen with his head buried in the sand, being kicked in the side by Computron. {{storylink|Birth of the Fantastic Double Prime}}

When Galvatron launched a [[Metamorphose|metal-warping meteorite]] at the Autobots on [[Athenia]], he brought along Sinnertwin and the Terrorcons to occupy the Autobot forces. Linking up as Abominus, they once again battled Computron and the Headmasters. {{storylink|Approach of the Demon Meteorite}}

[[File:HM14 shouki at gunpoint.jpg|left|thumb|200px]]
Scorponok devised a scheme to harvest [[plasma energy]] from the planet [[Mars (planet)|Mars]] by setting off a series of explosives that would utterly destroy the planet, releasing its stored energies. Sinnertwin and the Terrorcons were responsible for planting the bombs. Hun-Gurrr was spotted by [[Daniel Witwicky (G1)|Daniel Witwicky]], [[Wheelie (G1)|Wheelie]] and [[Shouki]] of the Trainbots, but Sinnertwin caught sight of them while on sentry duty, and managed to take them hostage. Hun-Gurrr left [[Rippersnapper (G1)|Rippersnapper]] and Sinnertwin in charge of the hostages, while he took the other Terrorcons to finish planting the charges. They caught an amusing show as Wheelie and Danny fought in their cell, but the tussle was actually a feint to hide a homing signal Danny sent out to his father. The Headmasters soon arrived and drove off Sinnertwin and Rippersnapper, freeing the hostages. {{storylink|Explosion on Mars!! Maximus Is in Danger}} Regrouping, the Terrorcons managed to get two of the three sites set before being set upon by [[Raiden]] and the Headmasters. By forming Abominus, Sinnertwin's team held their own until Scorponok arrived with his mighty [[Transtector]], MegaZarak. The giant scorpion occupied the Autobots long enough for the Terrorcons to finish their work, and Mars was consumed by the resultant atomic inferno. {{storylink|Explosion on Mars!! MegaZarak Appears}}

[[File:Hm22 Terrorcon Energon Station.jpg|thumb|200px]]
Soon after, Sinnertwin and the Terrorcons joined Sixshot the returning Galvatron on an energy raid. They sought to prevent the Autobots from re-energizing the distant world of [[Sandra (planet)|Sandra]], and steal the energy for themselves. Sinnertwin's team formed Abominus for yet another in a series of battles against Computron. {{storylink|SOS from Planet Sandra}} Sinnertwin was present when Galvatron announced his plans to leave the galaxy and loot the energy resources of other solar systems. {{storylink|Daniel Faces His Biggest Crisis Ever!!}} He was later seen helping [[Hun-Gurrr (G1)|Hun-Gurrr]] gather energy together on the planet Paradise. {{storylink|Head Formation of Friendship}}

Sinnertwin returned with Galvatron and the other Decepticons, setting up shop on Earth under Sixshot's command. He joined an enormous offensive against the Autobots' facility in [[Florida|Miami]], drawing out the troops from Autobot City so that Sixshot could kill [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ultra Magnus]]. Body-slamming Computron as Abominus was just icing on the cake. {{storylink|Ultra Magnus Dies!!}} The warfare on Earth continued, as Sinnertwin and the Terrorcons assembled as Abominus in part of a five-fold simultaneous strike on Autobot interests engineered by Sixshot. {{storylink|The Emperor of Destruction Vanishes on an Iceberg}} As Scorponok assumed control of the Decepticons again, Sinnertwin was seen at a rally being held in his honor on Chaar. Sinnertwin and the Terrorcons later joined a Decepticon strike on the Kamchatka Peninsula, seeking to gain control of the [[Pacific Ring of Fire]]. {{storylink|I Risk My Life for Earth}}

As Scorponok abandoned Earth in favor of conquering [[Master (planet)|Master]], Sinnertwin was one of his many troops seen attacking the planet's fortifications. {{storylink|Miraculous Warriors, Targetmasters (Part 2)}} As part of Abominus, Sinnertwin participated in the final battle with the Autobots at the North Pole. He escaped into space with the rest of Scorponok's Decepticons. {{storylink|The Final Showdown on Earth (Part 2)}}

Seeking to create a [[Decepticon Zone]] to counter the [[Micro|Autobot Zone]], [[Emperor of Destruction|Decepticon Emperor]] [[Violengiguar]] gathered together the [[Nine Great Demon Generals]], upgrading them with powerful new armor and weaponry, then sent them forth to conquer planets. Sinnertwin was one of those summoned, but only as a part of [[Abominus (G1)|Abominus]]. {{storylink|Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Zone (story page)|Zone Part 1}} {{storylink|Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Zone (manga)|Zone}} {{storylink|Enter the New Supreme Commander, Dai Atlas!}}

=====''Generations Selects Special Comic''=====
[[File:Selects Sinnertwin Hellspark.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66]]
Sinnertwin and the other Terrorcons were sent by the [[Quintesson]]s to aid the humans in their fight against the [[Selector]]s, [[Autobot]]s, and [[Decepticon]]s. {{storylink|Volcanicus comic 2}} The Terrorcons used [[Angolmois Energy]] taken from [[Unicron]] himself, giving them newfound strength. Sinnertwin briefly insulted [[Volcanicus (POTP)|Volcanicus]] before assaulting both him and [[Computron (G1)|Computron]]; using his two heads to gnaw on the Autobot combiners' limbs. Sinnertwin later gloated to [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]] that their sparks would be fed into the [[Hellspark]] within [[Hun-Gurrr (G1)|Hun-Gurrr]]'s body, as opposed to the divine [[Transformer afterlife|Allspark]]. The Terrorcon soldier declared himself the so-called "Watchdog of Hell" in an attempt to intimidate Optimus. Sinnertwin felt no qualms about firing on his former commander [[Megatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Megatron]] as Hun-Gurrr ordered him to counter-attack the rebelling Transformers.

Sinnertwin later had a meltdown when Megatron stole the Terrorcons' Angolmois Energy; desperately begging Hun-Gurrr to take action. Hun-Gurrr sent a transmission to the Quintessons, asking permission for the team to combine into [[Abominus (G1)|Abominus]]. The Quintessons then launched the [[Terrorbreaster]], enabling Sinnertwin to form the leg of the formidable combiner. The Terrorcons temporarily incapacitated Megatron by blasting a hole in his chest and tossing him aside, {{Storylink|Abominus comic 1}} but Megatron Omega isn't so easily killed. {{Storylink|Abominus comic 2}}

Sinnertwin was present as part of Abominus during his attack on [[Neo Scramble City]], and was temporarily left out of the combiner when Hun-Gurrr and [[Cutthroat (G1)|Cutthroat]] assimilated [[Menasor (G1)|Menasor]] and [[Bruticus (G1)|Bruticus]]'s limbs to become [[Abomenaticus]]. Sinnertwin later recombined with Hun-Gurrr upon Abomenaticus's reconfiguration into Abominus to fight Megatron Omega. Following Abominus's failure to defeat Megatron and alliance with [[Volcanicus (POTP)|Volcanicus]], the Terrorcons entered a portal with the Dinobot combiner {{Storylink|Abominus comic 2}} to the [[Blue Planet (GS)|Blue Planet]] and split up into their individual forms. Sinnertwin was present with the Abomenaticus components as Hun-Gurrr greeted [[Grimlock (G1)|Grimlock]] on the planet's surface. {{storylink|Generations Selects Special Comic Finale Part 1|Finale 1}}

====''The Great Transformer War''====
Sinnertwin and the Terrorcons were defeated in battle as Abominus by Computron. They switched tactics and split into their individual modes to spray Computron with "[[Cohesive Control Liquid]]", forcing him onto the Decepticon side. The Technobots were eventually freed when Spike Witwicky blasted them with a counter-spray. The now clear-minded Computron then proceeded to crush the individual Terrorcons.{{storylink|The Great Transformer War issue 2|The Great Transformer War #2}}

===Marvel Comics continuity===
====Marvel ''The Transformers'' comics====
[[File:ColdWar-Horribullleads.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.4]]
Sinnertwin and the Terrorcons were among the ranks commanded by [[Scorponok (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Scorponok]] on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], and came to [[Nebulos]] along with the rest of his soldiers. They attacked the city of [[Splendora]] along with the [[Horrorcon (G1)|Horrorcons]], but even after assuming their [[Abominus (G1)|Abominus]] form they were driven off by the [[Technobot (G1)|Technobots]] and the Autobot [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmasters]], [[Hardhead (G1)|Hardhead]] and [[Brainstorm (G1)|Brainstorm]]. {{storylink|Love and Steel!}} Later, after a report of an Autobot sighting reached them, Sinnertwin and his comrades were assembled by [[Zarak (G1)|Zarak]] to accompany him and Scorponok in a raid on the [[Nursery (Nebulos)|Nursery]]. Although they ended up stalemating in battle with the new Autobot [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmaster]]s, the latter realized that their clash was bringing destruction to their surroundings, and fled to prevent further ruin to the facility. {{storylink|Brothers in Armor!!}}

Scorponok eventually brought his crew to Earth, and Sinnertwin and the Terrorcons came with him. While attempting to "break bread" with [[Ratbat (G1)|Ratbat]]'s Earthbound Decepticons, a fight broke out between the two factions. Sinnertwin charged into battle against the other Decepticons, following [[Horri-Bull]] into the fight. {{storylink|Cold War!}} Later, the Decepticon factions joined forces with the Autobots against the [[Underbase]]-empowered [[Starscream (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Starscream]]. Joining [[Soundwave (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Soundwave]] on the ground in [[Buenos Aires]], the Terrorcons were barely into the fight before Starscream casually annihilated them in mid-air while falling off the tower at [[Avenida Nueve de Julio]]. {{storylink|Dark Star}}

=====Marvel UK future timelines=====
[[File:Rippersnapper sinnertwin time wars.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4]]
In [[2009]], Sinnertwin and the Terrorcons were terrorizing the human population of Earth during the raging [[Time rift|timestorm]]. He demonstrated rather poor manners by talking with his mouth full. 'Course, it was the ''other'' mouth that was full, but still...

After a battle with the Autobots, Soundwave and the Terrorcons followed them [[time travel|back in time]] to [[1989]], where they became cursorily involved in the conflict with their old commander, [[Galvatron (G1)|Galvatron]]. However, Soundwave made a point of keeping Sinnertwin and the rest of his men out of the direct line-of-fire, letting their allies take the heat. They then time-jumped back to the future when things got desperate, without so much as a "by your leave". {{storylink|Time Wars}}
{{-}}

====''Classics''====
{{noteclassics}}
In the 21st century, Sinnertwin and the Terrorcons were repaired and rejoined the Decepticons under [[Bludgeon (G1)|Bludgeon]]'s control. One day, they were working in the armory when Hun-Grrr summoned them for battle. Sinnertwin and the others joined as Abominus and fought against their fellow Decepticons without even knowing why Hun-Grrr was angry. They ended up getting impaled by [[Piranacon (G1)|Piranacon]], blasted into stasis lock, and taken off to wherever [[Crankcase (G1)|Crankcase]] and [[Gutcruncher (G1)|Gutcruncher]] dispose of old waste.

And yet, they probably had no regrets. {{storylink|At Fight's End}}

====''Transformers '84''====
[[File:SecretsAndLies4 ImpactorSinnertwin.jpg|left|upright=1.0|thumb|Impactor forcefully implants a feather in one of Sinnertwin's caps.]]
When [[Straxus (G1)|Straxus]] took over leadership of the Decepticons, he greatly increased their efforts to eliminate every surviving Autobot on the planet and Sinnertwin took part in one of these brutal purges. {{storylink|Secrets & Lies issue 3|Secrets & Lies #3}}

After the [[Wrecker]]s attempted to stop [[Project Dreadnought]], Sinnertwin confronted them as part of Abominus, but the Terrorcons ultimately had to separate to take their foes on more effectively. In the ensuing brawl, Sinnertwin bit off more than he could chew by tearing off [[Impactor (G1)|Impactor]]'s hand... and getting a [[harpoon]] shot through one of his beast mode mouths for the effort. {{storylink|Secrets & Lies issue 4|Secrets & Lies #4}}

===''Transformers in 3-D''===
The Terrorcons and [[Cyclonus (G1)|Cyclonus]] intercepted [[Ultra Magnus (G1)|Ultra Magnus]]'s team during the search for [[Metascan Alpha]]. The Terrorcons united into Abominus, but the Autobots ignored them and continued with their mission. A short time later, Abominus came under attack from the [[Destructon]]s and was blasted apart. The Terrorcons began a retreat and found themselves being aided by Ultra Magnus, resulting in Cyclonus agreeing to a truce between the two factions. {{storylink|The War Against the Destructons, Chapter 1 of 3}}

===2005 IDW continuity===
:*''First Appearance:'' [[Spotlight: Sixshot]]

Following [[Megatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Megatron]]'s first defeat at the hands of [[Optimus Prime (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Optimus Prime]], [[Scorponok (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Scorponok]] banished him to the planet [[Junkion (planet)|Junkion]]. The Terrorcons, however, preferred a more lethal punishment and set out to finish the job. {{storylink|Wreckage (issue)|Wreckage}} When they found him, Megatron proved to be stronger than they expected and ripped Sinnertwin's left head off after he'd only got to have one bite of him. After all the Terrorcons had been defeated, they realized the best move was to swear loyalty to Megatron and follow him back to Cybertron to overthrow Scorponok. {{storylink|Prey (issue)|Prey}} On arrival, Megatron beat the usurper into the ground and left Sinnertwin and the other Terrorcons to rip him to shreds. {{storylink|The Illusion of Control}}

[[File:SpotlightSIxshot Sinnertwin.jpg|left|upright=1.1|thumb|"My mint condition Sixshot! N-"]]
Sinnertwin later became the acting treasurer of the [[Sixshot (G1)|Sixshot]] fan club. He wasn't too good at the job, but he tried harder. He and the other Terrorcons were sent to [[Mumu-Obscura]], but were taken prisoner by the [[Reaper]]s to lure Sixshot to the planet. The Reapers offered membership to their little club so long as Sixshot destroyed the Terrorcons. Sinnertwin freaked out when he thought Sixshot was really going to kill them. Of course, they weren't killed, and the Reapers allowed the Decepticons to leave in peace. {{storylink|Spotlight: Sixshot}}

Sinnertwin was among the Decepticons living on Cybertron with the Autobots and the [[NAIL]]s after the war had ended. When [[Megatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Megatron]] returned from the wilderness, the Decepticons began rioting in the streets. {{storylink|City on Fire}} Cutthroat, Rippersnapper, and Sinnertwin were later assigned by [[Starscream (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Starscream]] to guard his [[Regenesis]] ore mine within [[Metroplex (G1)|Metroplex]], challenging [[Windblade (G1)|Windblade]] and her entourage when they came to investigate. {{storylink|A Long Way Down}} After expressing a desire to eat [[Circuit (G1)|Circuit]], Sinnertwin picked [[Blurr (G1)|Blurr]] as his opponent and fought him until Starscream showed up. {{storylink|Windblade issue 3|Windblade vol. 1 #3}}

Sinnertwin was hanging around in the Decepticon ghetto outside Metroplex when Optimus Prime came to visit, and was among those who ganged up on the Prime to make it clear he wasn't welcome there. {{storylink|City of Steel (issue)|City of Steel}} He didn't get the message though, later returning with Windblade, so Sinnertwin and co. attacked the two of them again until [[Chromia (G1)|Chromia]] and [[Ironhide (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Ironhide]] chased them off. {{storylink|First Contact (IDW)|First Contact}} He and other angry Decepticons were later convinced by [[Swindle (G1)|Swindle]] to attack Metroplex's [[space bridge]], having been promised a better life awaited them on [[Caminus (planet)|Caminus]]. {{storylink|You, Me, and the Universe}}

Following the unification of Cybertron and Caminus, Sinnertwin was wandering the Decepticon ghetto near some Camiens who were handing out religious pamphlets. {{storylink|The Transgressors}} He later watched a broadcast from [[Galvatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Galvatron]], rallying all Decepticons to join him in conquering [[Earth]]. {{storylink|Conquerors Part 1: Aphelion|Aphelion}} Heeding the call, Sinnertwin joined in another attack on the space bridge, which the Decepticons used to teleport to and take control of the ''[[Ark-7]]'' near Earth. {{storylink|Conquerors Part 2: Lagrange|Lagrange}}

On [[technorganic]] [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], the [[Quintesson]] [[Rexian]] found himself surrounded by a large group of surprisingly non-technorganic robots. They claimed to be Decepticons and explained that they were the stolen sparks [[Megatron (BW)/Beast Wars cartoon continuity|Megatron]] had in captivity and that they were also several of the ancient Decepticon warriors who fought in the Great war. However, they soon started fighting over which one was [[Thundercracker (G1)|Thundercracker]]. Eventually, the Decepticons decided that whoever could smash the most Sharkticons ''had'' to be a big-time Decepticon hero like Thundercracker and if it was a tie, they'd flip for it (loser could be [[Dirge (G1)|Dirge]]), so the competition started. Rexian escaped but was assaulted and killed by a smaller Decepticon who wasn't part of the bigger group and didn't care who was Thundercracker.

Because he was ''certain'' he was Sinnertwin. {{storylink|Wreckers: Finale Part II}}

Inactivity weighs heavily on Sinnertwin, and if he's not ravaging or destroying something on a fairly regular basis he gets a little restless, and restlessness equates to going out and finding something to tear to shreds with his teeth, horns or claws.

Mayhem on any level brings him a singular pleasure, and Autobot cries and screams are music to his audio modules.

In his twin-headed dragon-like beast mode he has numerous weapons at his disposal, including a back-mounted flame cannon and internal flamethrowers that allow both heads to breathe fire.

He can also turn into a limb for any ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]''-style combiner (or into one of [[Godbomber#Legends|''Legends'' Godbomber]]'s legs), although he is meant to combine with [[Hun-Gurrr (G1)#Generations|Hun-Gurrr]] to form [[Abominus (G1)#Generations|Abominus]]. Though based on his G1 design, Sinnertwin's leg mode is flipped from the original toy, showcasing the beast heads in front rather than hiding them in back. Like all ''Power of the Primes'' Deluxe Class figures, he comes with Prime Armor that has a slot for a [[Prime Master]] (and by extension, a [[Titan Master]], [[Enigma of Combination]], or [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#Power of the Primes|Matrix core]]) and can also function as a Combiner hand. He includes a piece to fill the gap in the armor or be held as a gun. The included blaster is directly based of the Flame Cannon of his G1 toy and usable for both modes. However, he doesn't come with the pistol called Rocket Grenade Launcher.

:Somewhat disturbingly, Sinnertwin's beast mode necks each hide a bottom set of teeth.

:''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Generations Selects]]'' Sinnertwin is a cartoon-accurate redeco of his ''Power of the Primes'' release, featuring numerous minor changes to his color scheme. Sinnertwin features much brighter shades of yellow and greenish-blue used for his main plastic colors. His combiner peg and crotch have been changed from greenish-blue to yellow, the weird silver marking on the side of his arm has been changed to gold, and the purple spots on his robot chest have been made turquoise. Sinnertwin's yellow robot mode eyes have also been changed to the classic red Decepticon eyes.

:Originally slated for release on [[March 27]], Sinnertwin's release was pushed back to April 17.

==Notes==
*Unlike [[Hun-Gurrr (G1)|Hun-Gurrr]], whose two heads spoke simultaneously, Sinnertwin's [[alternate mode]] in the ''Transformers'' cartoon had two heads that spoke independently of each other and even had two different actors provide the voices. At one point, they even seemed to argue with each other over which head got to kill an Autobot. What kind of relationship these heads have with Sinnertwin's robot mode personality is unknown.
*Sinnertwin's nominal limb placement as the left leg of [[Abominus (G1)|Abominus]] is frequently switched around with [[Cutthroat (G1)|Cutthroat]] as the right leg, due to the [[package art]] showing the latter configuration. The [[The Transformers (cartoon)|original cartoon]] popularized this different placement, while the mobile game ''[[Transformers: Earth Wars]]'' depicts the original configuration from the toy instructions.

Continuity family

2022-12-16T21:25:19Z

Shoutsuo: /* EarthSpark */

[[File:Optimus family comparison.jpg|thumb|upright=2|[[Optimus Prime (G1)|Vanilla?]] [[Optimus Prime (RID)|Strawberry?]] [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Spicy jalapeño?]] Pick your flavor.]]
A '''continuity family''' is {{SITENAME SHORT}}'s term for a group of distinct but closely-related individual [[Continuity|continuities]]. It is not an official term, it is not a declaration of immutable [[canon]], but it ''is'' an extremely useful organizational tool, providing the essence of how we divide one page from another.

For example, the [[The Transformers (franchise)|Generation 1 franchise]] has always comprised multiple separate, irreconcilable continuities; most prominently the original [[The Transformers (cartoon)|cartoon]] and [[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|comic books]]. Therefore, there is no single "Generation 1 continuity", but many (many ''many'') related ones. It would be madness to make a separate page for every single timeline-specific incarnation of, say, [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]], so we group all of his portrayals across the Generation 1 franchise into the same article, considering them a united "family".

And, just as a single franchise can contain multiple continuities, so can multiple franchises be part of a single continuity. For example, ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Wars]]'' is a separate franchise from Generation 1, but its storyline draws heavily upon Generation 1 continuity, so it is considered part of the [[Generation 1 continuity family|same continuity family]], and Starscream's appearance in the [[Beast Wars: Transformers (cartoon)|''Beast Wars'' cartoon]] is also included on the same page.

Determining where one continuity family ends and a new one begins is an inherently subjective matter and occasionally a cause of debate (see [[#Quirks and gray areas|Quirks and gray areas]] below). One general guideline that fits most cases is that a new family is begun when a series is a) a fresh continuity, b) within a separate franchise, and c) significantly different in cast, theme, style, etc. ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 franchise)|Robots in Disguise]]'' was the first series to break from tradition in all three criteria and therefore form a new family.

Under this organisational scheme, most ''Transformers'' media falls into one of eight categories:

{{collist|3|
*[[Generation 1 continuity family|Generation 1]]
*[[Robots in Disguise continuity family|''Robots in Disguise'']] (2001)
*[[Unicron Trilogy continuity family|Unicron Trilogy]]
*[[Movie continuity family|Movies]]
*''[[Animated continuity family|Animated]]''
*[[Aligned continuity family|Aligned]]
*''[[Transformers: Cyberverse (franchise)|Cyberverse]]''
*''[[Transformers: EarthSpark (franchise)|EarthSpark]]''}}

Other series exist that do not clearly fall into one of these (such as the [[Transformers: Go-Bots (franchise)|''Go-Bots'' toyline]], [[Kre-O Transformers (cartoon)|''Kre-O'' shorts]], ''[[Battle Masters]]'', and...er, ''[[Angry Birds Transformers (mobile game)|Angry Birds]]''), but the majority of ''Transformers'' stories reflect one of these "visions" of the [[Transformers brand|brand]]. Though some [[Transformers: TransTech|fan-targeted official media]] has homaged TFWiki's use of continuity families in the form of [[universal stream|universal clusters]], [[Hasbro]] itself notably does ''not'' subscribe to the idea of the brand being divided into "families"—to them, [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] is [[Optimus Prime (Armada)|Optimus Prime]] is [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Optimus Prime]], no matter the differences in style and continuity.

==Specific continuity families==
===Generation 1===
[[File:G1 1984 backofboxbattle.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|It's pretty obscure. You might not know about it.]]
{{main|Generation 1 continuity family}}

The source from which all other ''Transformers'' continuities are ultimately derived, the Generation 1 continuity family was made up of multiple separate continuities from the very start; the [[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|Marvel comic]], its [[The Transformers (Marvel comic)#Marvel UK|UK-exclusive side-stories]], the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|original Sunbow cartoon]], and the [[Big Looker Storybook|children's storybooks]] ran side by side from [[1984]], each telling related, but incompatible takes on the same basic story ideas. This continued into the era of the ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (franchise)|Generation 2]]'' revival in the 1990s.

While the "[[Beast Era]]" marked a significant departure in terms of visuals, cast and story, the events of the ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (cartoon)|Beast Wars]]'' cartoon firmly establish it and its [[Beast Machines: Transformers (cartoon)|sequel series]] as part of the Generation 1 "mythos". The Generation 1 setting and characters have been revived and revisited since the 2000s with comic series from [[Dreamwave Productions|Dreamwave]] and [[IDW Publishing|IDW]], [[Transformers: Generations (toyline)#Overview|new Generation 1 toys]] and [[The Transformers Trilogy|other]] [[Prime Wars Trilogy#Cartoons|media]]. [[TakaraTomy]], in particular, has focused on expanding its own take on the [[Japanese Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Generation 1 cartoon timeline]].

The Generation 1 family is by far the most extensive in the ''[[Transformers brand|Transformers]]'' [[multiverse]], primarily due to being the most iconic iteration of the brand — after all, if you ask someone what [[Optimus Prime (disambiguation)|Optimus Prime]] looks like, most people will picture [[Optimus Prime (G1)|the original]]. Perhaps as a self-perpetuating side effect of this, there's a tendency by fans to view new media or toys as "G1 by default" if it doesn't fit clearly into one of the other families.
{{-}}

===''Robots in Disguise''===
[[File:CarRobots poster.jpg|thumb|upright=0.7|Technically, ''this'' image belongs in the previous section.]]
{{main|Robots in Disguise continuity family}}

The first ''Transformers'' series to break from the Generation 1 family was the 2001 ''Robots in Disguise'' franchise. Curiously, it originated as ''Car Robots'', a Japanese-exclusive series that — while not clearly placed in any existing continuity — was not treated as any different from [[Beast Wars: Super Lifeform Transformers#Beast Wars II|previous]] [[Beast Wars: Super Lifeform Transformers#Beast Wars Neo|Japanese-exclusive]] series that fit loosely into the Generation 1/Beast Era timeline. However, when Hasbro imported the series to fill time during the production of ''[[Transformers: Armada (franchise)|Armada]]'', the series was treated as a full reboot, with faction leaders Fire Convoy and Gigatron reimagined as new versions of [[Optimus Prime (RID)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Megatron (RID)|Megatron]].

Thanks to the lack of any overt ties to the Generation 1 series in ''Car Robots'', western fans initially assumed that it had ''also'' been intended as a full reboot, and thus there was much confusion when a [[Source:Generation 1 cartoon timeline (Japan)|very complicated timeline]] from the Japanese ''[[Transformers: Kiss Players (franchise)|Kiss Players]]'' franchise explained how the events of the series (and several obscure bits of Japanese media) fit into the Japanese Generation 1 cartoon timeline. Because of this unique overlap, ''Car Robots''-original characters on this wiki have Generation 1 family appearances sorted onto the same pages as their RID counterparts.

The scope of the ''Robots in Disguise'' continuity family is limited, including only a [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 cartoon)|television series]], a short comic story from the [[20th Anniversary Transformers Summer Special]] and many [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|characters who only exist as toys]]. Perhaps as a result of its confusing origins or its relatively low profile, most revisiting of ''Robots in Disguise'' concepts and characters since the series ended have come in Generation 1 series, such as the [[2005 IDW continuity]] and the ''[[Transformers Legends (comic)|Transformers Legends]]'' manga.
{{-}}

===Unicron Trilogy===
[[File:Galactic Heroes Cybertron.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|[[Pokeformers|You're my best friend, in a world we must defend!]]]]
{{main|Unicron Trilogy continuity family}}

The "Unicron Trilogy" is the first ''Transformers'' continuity designed from the ground up as a full reboot, with ''[[Transformers: Armada (franchise)|Transformers: Armada]]'' marking the first time [[Hasbro]] and [[TakaraTomy]] worked together to create a new ''Transformers'' franchise from the start; as such, it includes reimagined versions of classic Generation 1 characters like [[Optimus Prime (Armada)|Optimus Prime]], [[Megatron (Armada)|Megatron]], and [[Starscream (Armada)|Starscream]].

The Unicron Trilogy, so named by [[Aaron Archer]] for the key role [[Unicron]] plays in each series, includes the ''[[Transformers: Armada (franchise)|Armada]]'', ''[[Transformers: Energon (franchise)|Energon]],'' and ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (franchise)|Cybertron]]'' toylines and all related media. While both ''Armada'' and ''Energon'' were supported by both cartoons and comic books, the collapse of [[Dreamwave Productions]] meant that the only tie-in comics for ''Cybertron'' were exclusive to the [[Transformers Collectors' Club]], and a short-lived Japanese manga.

Though ''Armada'', ''Energon'', and ''Cybertron'' were all conceived as being part of the same universe by the Hasbro and Takara teams, the [[GONZO|Japanese animation studio]] responsible for the Japanese version of ''Cybertron'' (known as ''Galaxy Force'') ignored this, with ''Galaxy Force'' thus having no ties to the previous Unicron Trilogy cartoons. The English dub of the series did what it could to smooth over continuity and retroactively fit ''Cybertron'' into the timeline of the other two cartoons, and in 2007, Takara used a timeline on their website to retcon ''Galaxy Force'' into being a sequel to ''Legends of the Microns'' (''Armada'') and ''Super Link'' (''Energon'') as initially intended.
{{-}}

===Movies===
[[File:ROTF Bumblebee wide poster.jpg|upright=1.3|thumb|The one that etched [[Bumblebee (Movie)|this face]] into your mind permanently.]]
{{main|Movie continuity family}}

Perhaps rivaling Generation 1 as the most prominent continuity family, the live-action movie family is built around 2007's ''[[Transformers (film)|Transformers]]'', its sequels ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'', ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (film)|Dark of the Moon]]'', ''[[Transformers: Age of Extinction (film)|Age of Extinction]]'', and ''[[Transformers: The Last Knight (film)|The Last Knight]]'', and its prequels ''[[Bumblebee (film)|Bumblebee]]'' and ''[[Transformers: Rise of the Beasts|Rise of the Beasts]]''.

The films are supported by a ''massive'' array of supporting fiction, from books to comics to video games, all of which ''tries'' to follow the films' continuity; however, the disparate tie-in material generally ignores other licensed movie fiction, resulting in multiple "branching" cotinuities that all use the films as a basis. For obvious reasons, the movies themselves will happily ignore and overwrite elements of these side stories if needed, resulting in tie-in fiction that's at odds with later films — and that's not even getting into [[Transformers: Defiance|tie-in]] [[Transformers: Bumblebee Movie Prequel|material]] based on unfinished versions of the film scripts that the movies end up contradicting.

With the films themselves generally disinterested in exploring continuity between different installments, it has generally fallen to tie-in material to reconcile and smooth over unexplained elements of [[Movie timeline|the timeline]]... though even this proved insufficient when ''[[Transformers: The Last Knight (film)|The Last Knight]]'' and ''[[Bumblebee (film)|Bumblebee]]'' each provided completely contradictory backstories to the original movie. As such, even the film series itself contains multiple distinct continuities. Isn't that ''fun''?
{{-}}

===''Animated''===
[[File:Arrival1 coverRI.jpg|thumb|upright=1.2|Justice, thy name is chin!]]
{{main|Animated continuity family}}

Debuting in late 2007 to capitalize on the launch of the live-action movie, the ''[[Transformers Animated (cartoon)|Transformers Animated]]'' cartoon introduced a new family with a [[Derrick J. Wyatt|distinctive visual style]] and story featuring a [[Optimus Prime (Animated)|young, inexperienced Optimus Prime]] leading a team of Autobots in a post-[[Great War (Animated)|Great War]] setting.

The cartoon lasted for three seasons, supplemented by a [[Transformers Animated: The Arrival|comic miniseries]], a [[Transformers Animated: The Cool|Japanese manga adaptation]], and other [[Transformers Animated (franchise)|ancillary fiction]]. While a success in terms of sales, ''Animated'' ended up a victim of ''Transformers'' cannibalizing itself, with toy retailers more interested in giving shelf space to the better-selling movie series toys... not helped by Hasbro wanting to have a little more control over their IP than they had at the time (with both the movie and ''Animated'' being partially under the control of completely different gigantic corporations and not necessarily needing Hasbro to vet everything they did).

Outside of a [[BotCon 2011|BotCon-exclusive]] [[The Stunti-Con Job|story and toy set]] and a [[Transformers Animated: The AllSpark Almanac|series of reference books]], the ''Animated'' continuity family hasn't been revisited in any major way since the cartoon ended, but it remains a fan-favorite series for its sense of humor and strong characterization.
{{-}}

===Aligned===
[[File:TransformersPrimePremierePoster.jpg|thumb|upright=1.3|Yes! This is ''real'' Transformers! Dark! Brooding! Important! Groundbreaking!]]
{{main|Aligned continuity family}}

Debuting in 2010, the "Aligned" continuity family — a name coined by fans based on Hasbro statements — represented an effort by Hasbro to "align" their media output, creating the [[Binder of Revelation]]: a universe bible that all subsequent works, set in a new singular continuity, would be based on. Things didn't exactly turn out this way, however; the necessity of allowing individual creative teams flexibility led to many details not lining up, with the result that the overall "story" only really fits together if you squint.

The Binder of Revelation drew heavily on previous iterations of the brand, attempting to create the "definitive" ''Transformers'' continuity by picking and choosing the best elements from Generation 1, the Unicron Trilogy, ''Animated'', the movies, and more. "Aligned" launched with [[Transformers: War for Cybertron (games)|''War for Cybertron'']] and ''[[Transformers: Exodus]]'' in June 2010, chronicling the origins of the Transformers' war; both would later be followed up with the sequels [[Transformers: Fall of Cybertron|''Fall of Cybertron'']] and ''[[Transformers: Exiles|Exiles]]''. Later in 2010, the [[Transformers: Prime (cartoon)|''Transformers: Prime'']] cartoon debuted the "present-day" story of the Transformers universe with a more serious show focused on long-term storytelling, and ''[[Transformers: The Covenant of Primus|The Covenant of Primus]]'' would later reveal more of the history found within the Binder, including the full story of the [[Thirteen]] original Cybertronians.

Other media in the Aligned continuity family includes the preschooler-focused [[Transformers: Rescue Bots (cartoon)|''Rescue Bots'']] and its sequel [[Transformers: Rescue Bots Academy (cartoon)|''Rescue Bots Academy'']], the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 cartoon)|''Robots in Disguise'' cartoon]] that served as a sequel to ''Prime'', and the Japanese-exclusive [[Triple Combination: Transformers Go! (cartoon)|''Transformers Go!'']], along with various pieces of ancillary media and toylines.

===''Cyberverse''===
[[File:Eruption-AutobotsRollOut.jpg|thumb|upright=1.2|All the Transformers, just as I remember them from my childh— is [[Wheeljack (Cyberverse)|that]] a ''[[Facial hair|beard]]''? '''[[Ruined FOREVER|RUINED FOREVER!]]''']]
{{main|Transformers: Cyberverse (franchise)}}

Debuting in [[2018]], ''Transformers: Cyberverse'' represents a second try at a "brand alignment", like the Aligned continuity before it. Rather than attempting to fit multiple ''stories'' into a single overarching timeline, ''Cyberverse'' is set in a standalone continuity unconnected to any other media; however, it uses variations of the "[[evergreen]]" designs that also appear in Generation 1 and Aligned [[Transformers Authentics|toys]] and [[Transformers: Rescue Bots Academy (cartoon)|media]], and avoids slapping pre-existing names on unrelated [[character]]s, instead making use of a roster of classic ''Transformers'' characters with recognisable designs.

''Cyberverse''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> story is heavily serialised, and draws on material including the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|Generation 1 cartoon's]] backstory, the [[2005 IDW continuity|IDW Generation 1 comics]], and even the [[Binder of Revelation]] — though it diverts from the Binder enough to generally not be considered an Aligned story. The ''Cyberverse'' continuity family centers on the [[Transformers: Cyberverse (cartoon)|cartoon]], supplemented by a [[Transformers: Battlegrounds|video game]], several YouTube shorts, the online bios, and—most unusually — the yet-to-be-released ''[[Nezha: Transformers (cartoon)|Nezha: Transformers]]'' animated series, which blends ''Cyberverse'' with the story and characters of the 2003 cartoon ''The Legend of Nezha''.

===''EarthSpark''===
[[File:EarthSpark-Promo-Pic.jpg|thumb|upright=1.2|[[Optimus Prime (ES)|Something old,]] [[Terran|something new,]] [[Witwicky (town)|something borrowed,]] [[Nickelodeon|something... orange.]]]]
{{main|Transformers: EarthSpark (franchise)}}

Debuting in [[2022]], ''Transformers: EarthSpark'' reflects a relative move away from the brand alignment that characterised the Aligned and ''Cyberverse'' continuities. While it makes heavy use of recognizable characters, using variants of their [[evergreen]] character designs [[Bumblebee (ES)|in]] [[Optimus Prime (ES)|some]] (but [[Megatron (ES)|not all]]) cases, ''EarthSpark'' diverts from the Generation 1 and [[Binder of Revelation]]-inspired stories that had characterised the previous decade of storytelling with a post-[[Great War (ES)|Great War]] setting that centers a new "faction" of [[Earth]]-born Transformers, the [[Terran|Terrans]], finding their place in the world.

{{-}}

===Other families===
While most series and toylines will belong to one of the eight major families, outliers exist, ranging from [[Transformers: Crossovers|crossover franchises]] to [[Bot Shots (franchise)|cross-brand character mashups]] to the [[Battle Masters|simply unidentifiable]]. These include:

*''[[GoBots]]'' — A continuity family built around the one-time rival of the ''Transformers'' brand, centered on the war between the [[GoBot]]ic factions of the [[Guardian (GoBots)|Guardians]] and the [[Renegade]]s. (Nothing to do with [[Go-Bots continuity family|''those'' Go-Bots]].)
*''[[Go-Bots continuity family|Go-Bots]]'' — A continuity family of series targeted at pre-schoolers, centered on the [[Go-Bot (species)|Go-Bots]] of [[Botropolis]] and their adventures in making the universe a better place! (Nothing to do with [[GoBots|''those'' GoBots]].)
*''[[Battle Masters]]'' — A continuity involving rockin', sockin' robots who [[Grimlock (AOE)#Battle Masters|mostly]] look little like any other versions of the characters.
*''[[Knights of Unicron (band)|Knights of Unicron]]'' — A totally metal continuity where the Knights of Unicron are the best dang band on Cybertron!
*''[[Transformers: Shattered Glass (franchise)|Shattered Glass]]'' and ''[[:Category:Shattered Glass Animated|Shattered Glass Animated]]'' — "Mirror universe" versions mainly of the Generation 1 and ''Animated'' continuity families, where up is down, black is white, and [[Optimus Prime (SG)|Optimus Prime]] is a baddie.
*''[[Transformers: BotBots (franchise)|BotBots]]'' — A bizarre continuity where the only known Transformers are formerly ordinary household items, brought to life by a cloud of [[energon gas]] released in a shopping mall.
*''[[Transformers: TransTech|TransTech]]'' — A singular universe populated by the [[Transcendent Technomorph]]s, hyper-advanced Transformers responsible for charting and cataloguing the [[multiverse]].
*''[[Transformers Cloud|Cloud]]'' — A universe populated by the [[Autobot#Cloud|Spacetime Police]], a group of Transformers that take a more active role in the wider multiverse, interfering directly to maintain its integrity — for a [[spacetime energy|small fee]], of course.

Characters from side merchandise lines that draw on multiple incarnations of characters from across continuity families, such as ''[[Bot Shots (franchise)|Bot Shots]]'', ''[[Kre-O]]'', and ''[[Construct-Bots]]'' are generally sorted onto their inspirations' pages. The exception is [[Optimus Prime (Kre-O)|certain]] [[Megatron (Kre-O)|major]] [[Bumblebee (Kre-O)|characters]] from ''Kre-O'', who are portrayed as literally swapping between forms based on different incarnations as one would change clothes, making splitting them up functionally impossible.

Characters that originate in [[:Category:External properties|non-''Transformers'' properties]] such as ''[[G.I. Joe (franchise)|G.I. Joe]]'', ''[[Star Wars (franchise)|Star Wars]]'', and ''[[Animorphs]]'' are typically given a single page that covers all their appearances, no matter which ''Transformers'' continuity they appear in.

==Quirks and gray areas==
The concept of a continuity family is not an official one; it was generated by editors of this wiki as an organizational tool. As such, for the bulk of ''Transformers'' fiction, deciding where the lines between families are drawn is a subjective business, balancing both abstract guidelines and practical considerations.

===2005 IDW continuity===
[[File:Drift2-Lockdown.jpg|thumb|A [[Lockdown (G1)|G1 version]] of an [[Lockdown (Animated)|''Animated'' character]] using a [[Lockdown (ROTF)#Toys|movie series toy design]].]]
Though [[IDW Publishing]]'s 13-year [[2005 IDW continuity|ongoing comics continuity]] is officially classed as part of the ''Generation 1'' franchise, there was initially some dispute over whether it should be considered part of that continuity family. Though the cast almost entirely consisted of Generation 1 characters in recognisable designs, the backstory was very different to any prior Generation 1 universe, and many of the characters were portrayed in unique ways; the question of whether or not, for example, the IDW versions of [[Galvatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Galvatron]] or [[Thunderwing (G1)#2005 IDW continuity|Thunderwing]] should be considered the "same character" as previous incarnations was a contentious one.

This debate was reignited with the debut of "phase 2" of the IDW continuity, which brought in larger numbers of characters originating from outside of Generation 1 (such as [[Lockdown (G1)|Lockdown]], [[Sky-Byte (RID)|Sky-Byte]], and [[Knock Out (G1)|Knock Out]]) and increasingly diverged further from the baseline idea of what Transformers ''was''. Ultimately, however, the official use of the "Generation 1" label, many minor appearances of Generation 1 characters, and incorporation of IDW elements into other G1 toys and media makes it impractical to split it out; it would be absurd, for example, to give a separate page to the IDW version of [[Roadblock (G1)|G1 Roadblock]].

===Live-action films and ''Animated''===
Not every continuity that makes use of Generation 1 characters and archetypes is classed as part of the Generation 1 family. In the case of both the live-action film series and the ''Transformers Animated'' cartoon, much of their casts, both major and minor, are updated versions of classic Generation 1 characters. For this reason, when both series debuted, many considered them analogous to the IDW comics; however, both are far more extensive than the relatively self-contained IDW Generation 1 comics, with each having a wide array of their own tie-in material and their own toylines. This, coupled with stark differences in characterisation, aesthetic and backstory, and both series' increasing deviations from the Generation 1 "default" as time went on, meant that it made far more sense to treat them separately.
{{-}}

===Aligned and ''Cyberverse''===
[[File:FOC-GameInformerPrimeBumblebee.jpg|thumb|Not [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]]. Not [[Bumblebee (G1)|Bumblebee]].]]
The "Aligned" continuity, Hasbro's attempt at a grand, unified universe for the ''Transformers'' brand, drew heavily on previous versions of the brand to create its world. However, the flagship piece of media of this new universe, ''[[Transformers: War for Cybertron (360/PS3/PC)|Transformers: War for Cybertron]]'', was originally conceived as a Generation 1 cartoon prequel; while using a distinct visual style, the designs are almost all heavily based on and recognisable as Generation 1 characters, and [[High Moon Studios]] even promoted the game as a Generation 1 prequel to games press. Subsequent Aligned media, such as ''[[Transformers: Prime (franchise)|Prime]]'' and ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 franchise)|Robots in Disguise]]'', stepped further away from strict G1 influence, but it is still very easy to view the games as Generation 1 updates rather than part of the ''Prime'' universe.

This issue recurred with the debut of ''Transformers: Cyberverse'', which went a step further by not only using Generation 1-inspired designs, but the [[evergreen]] designs actively being used by contemporary Generation 1 media; their characterisation draws heavily on their classic counterparts, and the show's backstory draws on both Generation 1 and Aligned sources, meaning that relatively little of ''Cyberverse'' cartoon is actually unique in the scope of the Transformers brand. From a practical point of view, however, as a new major media franchise with no continuity ties to any previous series, it's easier to consider it its own family rather than trying to subjectively judge whether it's "close enough".
{{-}}

==Official perspectives==
[[File:InvasionPrologue-Rhinox.jpg|thumb|"If we make an overly-convoluted classification system, the fandom won't get absurdly attached to it, right?"]]
The first official media to actively engage with the idea of a ''Transformers'' multiverse was [[Transformers: Universe (2003 franchise)|the 2003 ''Universe'' franchise]], which depicted a [[Universe War|war involving characters from several previous series]]. However, the concept of "families" of ''Transformers'' universes was first introduced in the ''[[Transformers: TransTech|TransTech]]'' franchise from Hasbro licensee [[Fun Publications]], which introduced the concept of [[universal stream]]s: technical, overly-precise "code names" for ''Transformers'' universes that included designations for the "universal clusters" to which they belonged — in essence, a direct in-universe version of and homage to TFWiki's continuity family system.

Though the universal streams were intended to be deliberately unintuitive and detached to represent the distant, aloof attitude of the [[Transcendent Technomorph]]s, some fans ''really'' latched onto them, taking them as gospel and framing their entire view of the ''Transformers'' multiverse around them. Later Fun Publications fiction ''did'' avoid such a strict, divided view of ''Transformers'' lore — ''[[Beast Wars: Uprising]]'', which is classed as a Generation 1 (or "[[Primax]]") continuity, made heavy use of Unicron Trilogy [[Mini-Con]]s as [[Micromaster]]s and brought in characters like [[Strongarm (G1)|Strongarm]] and [[Override (BWU)|Override]]; as well, later "[[Ask Vector Prime]]" answers tried to emphasise how arbitrary and lacking in inherent meaning the universal stream labels were... for all the good it did. Eventually, the entire universal stream conceit was [[Out of the One, Many|written out]], with the TransTech [[Shroud|losing their ability]] to view the multiverse.

Hasbro itself, meanwhile, has never particularly considered there to be strong divisions between "versions" of the ''Transformers'' brand, particularly since the departure of [[Forest Lee|individuals]] strongly invested in the mechanics of the fictional multiverse; indeed, when asked in [[2017]], brand manager [[John Warden]] indicated that he didn't consider [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Generation 1 Optimus]] to be separate from [[Optimus Prime (Armada)|''Armada'' Optimus]], or even from [[Ginrai (human)|Ginrai]]!<ref>[https://www.seibertron.com/energonpub/transformers-titans-return-product-reveals-news-updates-rumors-leaks-and-more--p1911385.php#p1911385 Excerpt from John Warden interview on Seibertron forums]</ref> This, of course, makes sense for a large corporation like Hasbro — they're here to make toys of Optimus Prime for kids to enjoy, not to worry about whether they fit into imagined categories; and, when not looked at from a wiki organization perspective, [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Sunbow Optimus]] isn't meaningfully more different from ''Armada'' Optimus than he is from [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Marvel Optimus]] or from [[Optimus Prime (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|IDW Optimus]].

(But seriously, John, ''Ginrai''?)

Transformers: Shattered Glass (toyline)

2022-12-12T00:32:18Z

Shoutsuo: /* Decepticons */ added the rest of ravage's future selves which I think were the only characters left that needed to be added to the decepticons section of the repurposed toys page

[[File:Onegenerationshattered.jpg|right|upright=1.95|thumb|Collecting this line will be expensive!]]

Like most ''Transformers'' [[franchise]]s, '''''[[Transformers: Shattered Glass (franchise)|Transformers: Shattered Glass]]''''' has a toyline, which started with [[BotCon 2008]]'s box set and souvenirs, and continued with scattered releases through [[Fun Publications]] and other fan-aimed release venues.

However, there is also a large number of toys originally from other ''Transformers'' toylines that have been officially [[repurposing|repurposed]] by official fiction as ''Shattered Glass'' characters. This was done to fill out the universe in a way that fans could re-create with toys they might already own (or ideally could obtain easily/inexpensively).

Quite a few additional fiction-only ''Shattered'' character designs are based on existing toys/characters with new color schemes, meaning they potentially ''could'' be manufactured some day, or recreated by enterprising [[Customizing|kitbashers]].

==Notes==
[[File:TF-POTP-Leader-Class-Evo-Rodimus-Unicronus.jpg|thumb|upright=1.5|"Rodimus ''what''?" "Rodimus PRIME! ''PRIME''!"]]
* [[Fun Publications]]' text stories by Sepelak and Troop referred to all of the [[Mini-Con]]-mold characters as Micromasters; "[[Do Over]]" in particular.
* A proposed but unrealized [[BotCon]] [[exclusive]] by [[Fun Publications]] was a redeco of [[Lockdown (ROTF)#Revenge of the Fallen|''Revenge of the Fallen'' Lockdown]] (utilizing [[Axor#Transformers (2010)|Axor]] tooling) into a ''Shattered Glass'' version of [[Stranglehold]].<ref>[http://www.toycollectors.com.au/bc14/bc14br.html BotCon 2014 attendee report]</ref>
*The [[2017]] ''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'' subline of ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' includes a figure named "[[Hot Rod (G1)/toys#RodimusUnicronus|Rodimus Unicronus]]", representing a [[Unicron]]-corrupted version of "Generation 1" Hot Rod/Rodimus Prime. Of significance is that this figure takes its deco directly from the BotCon 2008 ''Shattered Glass'' Rodimus figure, and even features a retooled "Prime" head with a goatee. Moreover, early pre-release photos and display samples of this toy actually featured purple Autobot symbols, strongly indicating that the toy was once at least considered for release as the actual ''Shattered Glass'' version of the character. But ultimately, marketing consistency presumably won out and the toy was released as an evil version of normal Rodimus with purple Decepticon symbols instead. Nevertheless, that needn't deter [[fandom|fans]] from [[repurposing]]. ''*wink wink*''
* The [[Studio Trigger]] anime series ''{{w|SSSS.Gridman}}'' featured a wide cast of characters sporting visual designs based on ''Transformers'' characters, predominantly ''Shattered Glass'' designs.

List of Precursor World toys

Shoutsuo: /* Others */ precursor world bludgeon's link now actually redirects to the part of bludgeon's page that has his precursor world version in it

The '''[[Precursor World continuity|Precursor World]]''', like [[Transformers: Shattered Glass (toyline)|''Shattered Glass'']] before it, is fairly unusual in the constellation of ''Transformers'' continuities in that it is populated almost entirely by toys originally from other ''Transformers'' toylines that have been [[repurposing|repurposed]] by official fiction as Precursor World characters.

A few additional fiction-only Precursor character designs are based on existing toys/characters with new color schemes, meaning they potentially ''could'' be manufactured some day, or recreated by enterprising [[Customizing|kitbashers]].

==Toys==
===Precursor World toys===
The humble handful of toys created with the explicit intent of tying into the Precursor World storyline were released through [[TakaraTomy|TakaraTomy's]] ''[[Spin Off]]'' label of exclusives under the ''[[Transformers Legends (franchise)|Legends]]'' banner.

==Accessories==
The Precursor World goes one step further than repurposing action figures, frequently repurposing bits and bobs from across ''Transformers'' history as new artifacts. Figures with which the accessories are packed are listed in parentheses.

==Virtual redecoes==
Like ''[[Transformers: Shattered Glass (toyline)|Shattered Glass]]'' and ''[[Beast Wars: Uprising]]'' before it, the Precursor World makes use of real world molds in fictional color schemes, commonly referred to as "[[redeco#"Virtual" redecoes|virtual redecoes]]."

===Sentinel Armada===
[[File:Primus Vanguard Fleet.jpg|right|thumb|200px]]
{{main|Sentinel Armada/gallery}}
The Sentinel Armada are a fleet of [[Sentinel Prime (G1)#Generations|''Titans Return'' Sentinel Prime]] redecoes, each in the color scheme of their respective Order.

File:Burning Red Sentinel Prime.jpg|'''[[Red Sentinel Prime|Burning Red Sentinel Prime]]''' The second body of the [[Red Order]] leader, this form of Red Sentinel Prime is made up of his core form, a repurpose of the Titan Master [[Infinitus#Generations|''Titan Force'' Infinitus]], on a new [[transtector]]: A redeco of [[Hardhead (G1)#Generations|''Titans Return'' Hardhead]] in the stylings of [[Optimus Primal (BW)/toys#Burning|''Beast Wars'' Burning Convoy]].

File:Dai Atlas Selects.jpg|[[Dai Atlas (G1)#Precursor World|"Dai Atlas"]] Likely intended as a teaser of the then-upcoming [[Dai Atlas (G1)#Legends|''Legends'' Dai Atlas]], this [[Blue Order]] member is a direct redeco of [[Black Shadow (G1)#Titans Return|''Titan Returns'' Sky Shadow]] into the colors of [[Dai Atlas (G1)#The Transformers|''Zone'' Dai Atlas]] without the retooling that would eventually manifest in the [[Transformers Legends (franchise)|''Legends'']] release.

File:Abominus Comic 2- Mutant Soundwave.jpg|[[Soundwave (BW)#Precursor World|"''Beast Wars'' Soundwave"]] This very busy [[Golden Age (GS)|Golden Age]] member is made up of the [[Nightbeat (G1)#Titans Return|''Titans Return'' Nightbeat]] Titan Master on the body of [[Mindwipe (G1)#Titans Return|''Titans Return'' Mindwipe]] in the livery of [[Soundwave (BW)#Mutant Beast Wars|''Beast Wars'' Soundwave]].

File:EHOBBY Bludgeon back.jpg|[[Bludgeon (G1)#e-HOBBY comics|"Bludgeon"]] This mysterious companion of the aforementioned Golden Age agent is quite the elaborate construction. Made up of ''[[Titans Return (toyline)|Titans Return]]'' [[Rev#Generations|Titan Master Throttle]] in the colors of [[Bludgeon (G1)#The Transformers|''The Transformers'' Bludgeon's]] inner robot on the body of [[Hardhead (G1)#Generations|''Titans Return'' Hardhead]] in the colors of his [[Pretender]] shell, with the added adornment of the white shoulder stripes of 2003 ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 franchise)|Robots in Disguise]]'' [[Bludgeon (RID 2001)|Destructicon Bludgeon]]. He additionally bears a redeco of the sword belonging to 2016 ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 toyline)|Robots in Disguise]]'' Warrior Class [[Windblade (RID)#Warrior|Windblade,]] as well as a drone partner from the [[Horri-Bull#Generations|''Titans Return'' Terri-bull]] Titan Master vehicle mold in the colors of Pretender Bludgeon's tank mode.

** [[The One]]'s [[Statue of The One|statue]] in the inner sanctum of the [[Primus Vanguard|Primus Vanguard's]] [[Ivory Towers|headquarters]] is [[Microman#GiantRobo|Giant Robo G-1]], an unreleased ''Microman'' prototype.
** The tank preserving [[Straxus (G1)#Precursor World|Chief Engineer Straxus]] after his dismemberment is an [[Microman#Escargot|Escargot]] vehicle from the 1975 ''Project Victory'' series.

The '''[[Precursor World continuity|Precursor World]]''', like [[Transformers: Shattered Glass (toyline)|''Shattered Glass'']] before it, is fairly unusual in the constellation of ''Transformers'' continuities in that it is populated almost entirely by toys originally from other ''Transformers'' toylines that have been [[repurposing|repurposed]] by official fiction as Precursor World characters.

A few additional fiction-only Precursor character designs are based on existing toys/characters with new color schemes, meaning they potentially ''could'' be manufactured some day, or recreated by enterprising [[Customizing|kitbashers]].

==Toys==
===Precursor World toys===
The humble handful of toys created with the explicit intent of tying into the Precursor World storyline were released through [[TakaraTomy|TakaraTomy's]] ''[[Spin Off]]'' label of exclusives under the ''[[Transformers Legends (franchise)|Legends]]'' banner.

==Virtual redecoes==
Like ''[[Transformers: Shattered Glass (toyline)|Shattered Glass]]'' and ''[[Beast Wars: Uprising]]'' before it, the Precursor World makes use of real world molds in fictional color schemes, commonly referred to as "[[redeco#"Virtual" redecoes|virtual redecoes]]."

===Sentinel Armada===
[[File:Primus Vanguard Fleet.jpg|right|thumb|200px]]
{{main|Sentinel Armada/gallery}}
The Sentinel Armada are a fleet of [[Sentinel Prime (G1)#Generations|''Titans Return'' Sentinel Prime]] redecoes, each in the color scheme of their respective Order.

File:Burning Red Sentinel Prime.jpg|'''[[Red Sentinel Prime|Burning Red Sentinel Prime]]''' The second body of the [[Red Order]] leader, this form of Red Sentinel Prime is made up of his core form, a repurpose of the Titan Master [[Infinitus#Generations|''Titan Force'' Infinitus]], on a new [[transtector]]: A redeco of [[Hardhead (G1)#Generations|''Titans Return'' Hardhead]] in the stylings of [[Optimus Primal (BW)/toys#Burning|''Beast Wars'' Burning Convoy]].

File:Dai Atlas Selects.jpg|[[Dai Atlas (G1)#Precursor World|"Dai Atlas"]] Likely intended as a teaser of the then-upcoming [[Dai Atlas (G1)#Legends|''Legends'' Dai Atlas]], this [[Blue Order]] member is a direct redeco of [[Black Shadow (G1)#Titans Return|''Titan Returns'' Sky Shadow]] into the colors of [[Dai Atlas (G1)#The Transformers|''Zone'' Dai Atlas]] without the retooling that would eventually manifest in the [[Transformers Legends (franchise)|''Legends'']] release.

File:Abominus Comic 2- Mutant Soundwave.jpg|[[Soundwave (BW)#Precursor World|"''Beast Wars'' Soundwave"]] This very busy [[Golden Age (GS)|Golden Age]] member is made up of the [[Nightbeat (G1)#Titans Return|''Titans Return'' Nightbeat]] Titan Master on the body of [[Mindwipe (G1)#Titans Return|''Titans Return'' Mindwipe]] in the livery of [[Soundwave (BW)#Mutant Beast Wars|''Beast Wars'' Soundwave]].

File:EHOBBY Bludgeon back.jpg|[[Bludgeon (G1)#Precursor World|"Bludgeon"]] This mysterious companion of the aforementioned Golden Age agent is quite the elaborate construction.

He additionally bears a redeco of the sword belonging to 2016 ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 toyline)|Robots in Disguise]]'' Warrior Class [[Windblade (RID)#Warrior|Windblade,]] as well as a drone partner from the [[Horri-Bull#Generations|''Titans Return'' Terri-bull]] Titan Master vehicle mold in the colors of Pretender Bludgeon's tank mode.

** [[The One]]'s [[Statue of The One|statue]] in the inner sanctum of the [[Primus Vanguard|Primus Vanguard's]] [[Ivory Towers|headquarters]] is [[Microman#GiantRobo|Giant Robo G-1]], an unreleased ''Microman'' prototype.

List of Precursor World toys

The '''[[Precursor World continuity|Precursor World]]''', like [[Transformers: Shattered Glass (toyline)|''Shattered Glass'']] before it, is fairly unusual in the constellation of ''Transformers'' continuities in that it is populated almost entirely by toys originally from other ''Transformers'' toylines that have been [[repurposing|repurposed]] by official fiction as Precursor World characters.

A few additional fiction-only Precursor character designs are based on existing toys/characters with new color schemes, meaning they potentially ''could'' be manufactured some day, or recreated by enterprising [[Customizing|kitbashers]].

==Toys==
===Precursor World toys===
The humble handful of toys created with the explicit intent of tying into the Precursor World storyline were released through [[TakaraTomy|TakaraTomy's]] ''[[Spin Off]]'' label of exclusives under the ''[[Transformers Legends (franchise)|Legends]]'' banner.

==Virtual redecoes==
Like ''[[Transformers: Shattered Glass (toyline)|Shattered Glass]]'' and ''[[Beast Wars: Uprising]]'' before it, the Precursor World makes use of real world molds in fictional color schemes, commonly referred to as "[[redeco#"Virtual" redecoes|virtual redecoes]]."

===Sentinel Armada===
[[File:Primus Vanguard Fleet.jpg|right|thumb|200px]]
{{main|Sentinel Armada/gallery}}
The Sentinel Armada are a fleet of [[Sentinel Prime (G1)#Generations|''Titans Return'' Sentinel Prime]] redecoes, each in the color scheme of their respective Order.

File:Burning Red Sentinel Prime.jpg|'''[[Red Sentinel Prime|Burning Red Sentinel Prime]]''' The second body of the [[Red Order]] leader, this form of Red Sentinel Prime is made up of his core form, a repurpose of the Titan Master [[Infinitus#Generations|''Titan Force'' Infinitus]], on a new [[transtector]]: A redeco of [[Hardhead (G1)#Generations|''Titans Return'' Hardhead]] in the stylings of [[Optimus Primal (BW)/toys#Burning|''Beast Wars'' Burning Convoy]].

File:Dai Atlas Selects.jpg|[[Dai Atlas (G1)#Precursor World|"Dai Atlas"]] Likely intended as a teaser of the then-upcoming [[Dai Atlas (G1)#Legends|''Legends'' Dai Atlas]], this [[Blue Order]] member is a direct redeco of [[Black Shadow (G1)#Titans Return|''Titan Returns'' Sky Shadow]] into the colors of [[Dai Atlas (G1)#The Transformers|''Zone'' Dai Atlas]] without the retooling that would eventually manifest in the [[Transformers Legends (franchise)|''Legends'']] release.

File:Abominus Comic 2- Mutant Soundwave.jpg|[[Soundwave (BW)#Precursor World|"''Beast Wars'' Soundwave"]] This very busy [[Golden Age (GS)|Golden Age]] member is made up of the [[Nightbeat (G1)#Titans Return|''Titans Return'' Nightbeat]] Titan Master on the body of [[Mindwipe (G1)#Generations|''Titans Return'' Mindwipe]] in the livery of [[Soundwave (BW)#Mutant Beast Wars|''Beast Wars'' Soundwave]].

File:EHOBBY Bludgeon back.jpg|[[Bludgeon (G1)#Precursor World|"Bludgeon"]] This mysterious companion of the aforementioned Golden Age agent is quite the elaborate construction.

** [[The One]]'s [[Statue of The One|statue]] in the inner sanctum of the [[Primus Vanguard|Primus Vanguard's]] [[Ivory Towers|headquarters]] is [[Microman#GiantRobo|Giant Robo G-1]], an unreleased ''Microman'' prototype.

List of Precursor World toys

The '''[[Precursor World continuity|Precursor World]]''', like [[Transformers: Shattered Glass (toyline)|''Shattered Glass'']] before it, is fairly unusual in the constellation of ''Transformers'' continuities in that it is populated almost entirely by toys originally from other ''Transformers'' toylines that have been [[repurposing|repurposed]] by official fiction as Precursor World characters.

A few additional fiction-only Precursor character designs are based on existing toys/characters with new color schemes, meaning they potentially ''could'' be manufactured some day, or recreated by enterprising [[Customizing|kitbashers]].

==Toys==
===Precursor World toys===
The humble handful of toys created with the explicit intent of tying into the Precursor World storyline were released through [[TakaraTomy|TakaraTomy's]] ''[[Spin Off]]'' label of exclusives under the ''[[Transformers Legends (franchise)|Legends]]'' banner.
