[[File:Targetmasters.jpg|400px|thumb|And watch the cartoon, too! It's not nearly this pretty, but it gives you time to blink.]]
Despite the existence of comics, cartoons, and other media intended to advertise [[Toy|Transformers toys]], Hasbro has routinely commissioned standard [[television]] '''commercials''' to promote their current toy lines. These commercials typically use a combination of animation and live-action film featuring the characters/toys in question. 

During the Generation 1 days, animation used in the commercials consisted largely of newly commissioned pieces that told a story. Since then, nearly all animation featured in ''Transformers'' commercials can be classified as either re-used excerpts from the current cartoon or short animations used to merely introduce the ad. Live-action toy segments have stayed mostly the same, with most US and international ads showing kids (or a pair of hands) transforming the toys. Japanese ads, by contrast, have shown a much larger preference for stop-motion toy segments.

As the goal of any advertising is to influence the viewer into buying the advertised product,''Transformers'' commercials have naturally played a large part in the perception of the [[Transformers brand]]. The narration of [[Victor Caroli]], along with the animation, enabled Generation 1 commercials to create the idea of a Transformers world with many stories to be told. The ''Beast Wars'' ad campaign created a similar feel of a whole world waiting to be explored but this time with organic beasts. This recurring theme of a huge world of stories has captivated many a Transformers fan and is largely responsible for the brand's rabid [[fandom]]. More recently, the massive ad campaigns for ''[[Transformers (film)|Transformers]]'' and ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen]]'' kept the Transformers brand ever present in the eye of the public and made the films feel like the blockbuster events they were intended to be.

: ''Narration:'' Unknown. An intentionally doofy voice dubs over Optimus Primal with any other voice removed and the original sound effects replaced with more comedic ones.
: A bewildered Optimus Primal finds himself falling and then grabs onto some molding on the side of a building. The molding gives way and he falls down the side of the building. He mistakes the sparks created by his scraping fingernails as something shooting from his fingers. He finally catches another piece of molding as Megatron (in his Optimal Optimus body) strafes him. As he tries to explain that he's not [[King Kong]], the scene reverses itself and he finds himself stuck in some sort of time loop.
: ''Notes:'' This ad doesn't mention anything about the series finale from which the animation is taken. In fact, this seems to be just a regular old promo for the show. Assuming this aired before [[Endgame Pt. II: When Legends Fall]], anyone eagle-eyed enough to spot Optimal Optimus' jetmode would've caught a hefty spoiler.

:*'''Optimus Prime''' and '''Ultra Magnus''' [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qIkfT81hOA&t=0m50s] - Same as previous commercial, but Neil Kaplan voices Optimus Prime and the narration is the actor used for the rest of the ''Robots in Disguise'' commercials.

* '''Toy ad #1''' [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qp5z6L9PVI8]
: ''Animation:'' [[Bumblebee (CB)|Bumblebee]] breaking out of his package; Bumblebee does the Cabbage Patch as [[Megatron (CB)|Megatron]] comes up behind him and knocks him down with a back legsweep. Megatron is quite amused by this until Bumblebee turns the table by stripping Megatron's parts off in a tornado of action, leaving him "naked". At the end, Bumblebee busts through the wall seen behind the Construct-Bots Bumblebee and [[Soundwave (Construct-Bots)|Soundwave]] figures, does a somersault and then points at the camera: "Build ''your'' Bot!"
: ''Narration:'' [[Dynamic!]]
: ''Toy segment:'' The Bumblebee Construct-bot figure is built to robot mode, changed to vehicle mode and customized with parts from Soundwave.
: ''Notes:'' The narration switches from the narrator to Bumblebee without any change in voice. It's merely indicated by the animated Bumblebee's lips moving. Megatron's laugh, shriek and grunts are provided by an unknown voice actor. The animation was shared with the online video [[Switcheroo!]]
: ''Now, you can build your bot your way!'' 


* '''Toy ad #2''' [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6jE-bctjyg]
: ''Animation:'' The Bumblebee breaking out of his package intro is re-used here. Bumblebee transforms into his jet mode and flies around. Much to his dismay he encounters Megatron trying to shoot him down. He is saved by [[Optimus Prime (CB)|Optimus Prime]] ramming into Megatron in truck mode.

: ''Narration:'' [[Dynamic!]]
: ''Toy segment:'' The Construct-Bots app is demonstrated on a tablet PC. The Bumblebee figure is set down next to his package and that of Soundwave.
: ''Notes:'' Again, there is little to no distinction between the narrator voice and the Bumblebee voice. Megatron again has a laugh and shriek provided by an unknown actor. Thanks to the amount of animation and the app demonstration, the only actual toy footage is a seven second or so stretch of the Bumblebee figure being set down and then still visible on screen as CGI Bumblebee breaks through the wall, rolls forward and begins speaking to the camera.
: ''Unleash your ultimate Optimus Prime!''


* '''Cybertron Construction Zone on CartoonNetwork.com''' [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-T4eKlJVSUA]

: ''Narration:'' Unknown.
: ''Toy segment:'' Optimus Prime and Megatron laying on circular platforms with their parts spread out around them. A CGI robotic camera analyzes them, and the connected computer system counts 67 pieces for Optimus Prime, 68 for Megatron and declares that there will be no mixing. A set of human hands builds Optimus Prime but finishes by adding Megatron's [[faction symbol]], to the astonishment of the narrator. The computer starts to flip out, noting that "This is against protocol." The narrator tells the computer to relax then instructs kids (with the help of their parents) to go to [[Cartoon Network]]'s website to [[Construct-bots_Builder|"construct, customize and convert your own ultimate custom bots."]]

: (Briskly, to the tune of "The Hokey Pokey") ''Optimus stumbles upon, pieces of Megatron. He tries them on for size, and they all fit to his surprise. More powerful than ever, enemies meet their demise, that's what it's all about. Autobots combine, Megatron's missiles miss. Using Grimlock's arms, they stop him with a dino fist.
