Transformers is a toy line launched in 2014. The toys are mostly re-releases or redecos of older toys in packaging that strongly resembles the packaging design for the concurrently released Age of Extinction line (but lacking the actual Age of Extinction logo) for the 2014 releases. The 2015 Legion figures had their packaging slightly redesigned to resemble the packaging design of the concurrently released Generations: Combiner Wars line, but replacing the name "Generations" with a more generic "authentic Transformers" disclaimer. Most of the toys are exclusives at least as far as the United States market is concerned. On Hasbro's website, the figures are alternatively identified as "Classic" (a term also used for the Legion Class figures by various international online retailers) or "Generation One".
