The earlier waves of figures advertised [[The Hub]] or ''War for Cyebrtron''. After the aforementioned hiatus, the line returned in full force in 2012, with designs based on the ''Fall of Cybertron'' video game, which have continued into 2013.

Revision as of 06:23, 26 February 2013
| The name or term "Generations" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Generations (disambiguation). |
Transformers: Generations is a line of figures launched in 2010. Like the earlier 2006 Classics and 2008 Universe lines, along with much of the 2010 Transformers line, it aims to recreate older Transformers characters as new toys and celebrate the history of the brand. Initially, unlike Universe, there were no series or other indications on the toys' packaging regarding which continuity the characters hail from, which seemed to follow Hasbro's recent trend of leaving as much of that kind of information as possible up to the imagination of the purchaser. However, after the line resumed in 2012 after a temporary hiatus, the packaging began to bear the Fall of Cybertron logo for the toys designed after the characters of that video game.
During the 2010-2011 portion of the line, the toys used designs from the War for Cybertron video game, before gradually shifting into the more familiar design style of the Classics and Universe toylines. The earlier waves of figures advertised The Hub or War for Cyebrtron. After the aforementioned hiatus, the line returned in full force in 2012, with designs based on the Fall of Cybertron video game, which have continued into 2013. At Toy Fair 2013, it was announced that, in celebration of the 30th Annerivsary of the brand the next phase of toy designs would be developed in collaboration with IDW Publishing, creating a sense of unity between the designs of the toys and the designs of the characters in IDW's ongoing Generation 1 comic storyline. The coming Generations toys will resemble both new and existing IDW character designs, with the Deluxe class figures including reprints of their characters' respective Spotlight comic issues.

Notes
- Clicking "War for Cybertron Toys" on Hasbro's War For Cybertron webpage brings up the whole "Generations" toyline. Looking for War for Cybertron toys? Here you go.
- Since the toys in the Generations toyline were initially all Deluxe-sized, the Difficulty Level bar on the front packaging (which indicates how hard it is to convert a toy from mode to mode) now denotes each individual toy's challenge level (Cybertronian Bumblebee, for example, is a Level 4, while Thrust is a Level 2).
- The plastic-coated wire twist-ties, which were normally used to secure a toy in its packaging in past toylines, have been replaced with rattan tie-downs. The paper-based tie-downs are also used in the 2010 Transformers toy line and subsequent toy lines moving forward.
- The 2010 Transformers toy line, particularly the Reveal the Shield subline imprint, contains several toys with a design aesthetic similar to the Generations line. This led to confusion when fan expectations were contradicted by official Hasbro announcements. Subsequently, Hasbro released Wheeljack, a retool of Reveal the Shield Turbo Tracks, and Junkheap, a retool of Reveal the Shield Wreck-Gar, under the Generations banner, later followed by Generation 2-inspired redecos of Reveal the Shield Optimus Prime and Special Ops Jazz released as part of the "Ultimate Gift Set" and the Asian market/Toys"R"Us exclusive Wheelie redeco/retool of Special Ops Jazz, all of them also in Generations packaging, thus further strengthening the ties between the two lines.
- Most of the Generations toys (along with several from the 2010 Transformers toy line) were released by TakaraTomy in their Transformers United toyline. The toys representing characters who appeared in the video game War for Cybertron (which is part of the Aligned continuity family) were released as their Generation 1 counterparts in Japan.
