Notes
- In real life, South Korea has notably had one variant toyline unique to itself, the Car Bot line, the localized derivation of Robots in Disguise.
- South Korea is also known for its abysmal toy distribution when it comes to Transformers: most retailers refuse to stock anything that isn't Movie-related, to the chagrin of more G1-minded fans. This also causes large quantities of shelfwarmers, which contribute to the notion that "Transformers toys don't sell" and worsen the cycle.
- What does sell is South Korea's own original transforming robot toylines, with accompanying cartoons and merchandise: The two major pioneers are Young Toys's Tobot, and Sonokong's Hello Carbot.
