Transformers: Generations (toyline)

The name or term "Generations" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Generations (disambiguation).

Insignia-like logo used on packaging for late 2014-onward Generations toys, in combination with the new generic Transformers logo.

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. The line lapsed after the end of 2011, but was relaunched in mid-2012 and has run continuously ever since.

Phase 1: 2010–2011

The initial Generations line featured only Deluxe Class toys, and included both characters from the concurrently released War for Cybertron video game, and “modernised G1” figures in the spirit of the previous Classics and Universe toylines. In a first for the franchise, the Drift toy and its Blurr retool were based directly on designs created by Guido Guidi for IDW's Generation 1 comic universe. The earlier waves of figures sported advertising for The Hub or War for Cybertron.

Deluxe Class (general retail)

RETRIBUTION!

Wave 1

• Cybertronian Bumblebee (War for Cybertron)
• Cybertronian Optimus Prime (War for Cybertron)
• Autobot Drift
• Thrust (redeco of Gentei! Gentei! Thrust)

ToysЯUs and online retailers like Entertainment Earth and BigBadToyStore received special cases containing only Cybertronian Optimus Prime and Cybertronian Bumblebee as a promotional tie in for the release of the War for Cybertron video game before the general release of the Generations toyline.

I'm just a miner.

Wave 2

• Cybertronian Megatron (War for Cybertron)
• Darkmount

Wave 3

• Cybertronian Soundwave (War for Cybertron)
• Red Alert (retool of Universe (2008) Sideswipe)

Wave 4

• Blurr (retool of Drift)
• Dirge (redeco of Gentei! Gentei! Dirge)

And that's when Hasbro ran out of movie-era Decepticons.

Wave 5

• Cliffjumper (War for Cybertron, retool of Cybertronian Bumblebee)
• Skullgrin (retool of Darkmount)
• Thunderwing

Wave 6

Wave 9

• Sky Shadow (retool of Thunderwing)

Asian market exclusives ("GDO")

Asian market exclusive packaging for Cliffjumper, Springer, Swerve and Wheelie (top) and North American market ToysЯUs exclusive packaging (bottom).

In mid-2012, Hasbro's Asian division released a variety of redecos and retools in their markets such as China, Singapore and the Philippines. This lineup, which featured the same general packaging design as the 2010–2011 figures, introduced the first non-Deluxe toys in the line (as Generations had been limited to the Deluxe price point up to that point). Western online retailers referred to these figures under the mysterious term "GDO" (which was later revealed to be an abbreviation for "Global Development Organization").

Hasbro's United States and Canadian divisions later decided to release all these figures in North America as well, as a massive batch of ToysЯUs exclusives for the 2012 holiday shopping season. Strangely, while the Asian market versions were released in standard English-only packaging, the versions available in the United States and Canada came in bilingual English/Chinese packaging. Also, the Deluxes came packaged in their alternate modes, whereas the Asian versions were packaged in robot mode.

Legends Class

Legends Class Bluestreak, the first toy of the G1 character in over a decade not named "Silverstreak".

• Bluestreak (retool of Chronicle Streak with a rifle.)
• Hoist (retool of Reveal the Shield Trailcutter with a blaster.)
• Motorbreath (retool of Reveal the Shield Optimus Prime with a sword.)
• Thundercracker (retool of Reveal the Shield Starscream with two blasters.)

Scout Class

• Sandstorm (redeco of Revenge of the Fallen Dune Runner)
• Laserbeak (redeco of Revenge of the Fallen Skystalker)
• Dead End (redeco of Revenge of the Fallen Brakedown)
• Decepticon Brawl (redeco of Transformers: Hunt for the Decepticons Breacher)

Deluxe Class

Voyager Class "Protectobot Hot Spot", not named "Hot Zone" unlike previous toys.

• Cliffjumper (retool of Prime: First Edition Cliffjumper)
• Autobot Springer (redeco/retool of Hunt for the Decepticons Tomahawk)
• Swerve (retool of Sergeant Kup)
• Wheelie (retool of Reveal the Shield Special Ops Jazz)

Voyager Class

• Powerdive (retool of Hunt for the Decepticons Highbrow)
• Protectobot Hot Spot (retool of Universe (2008) Inferno)
• Megatron (retool of Revenge of the Fallen: N.E.S.T. Global Alliance Bludgeon)
• Brawn (retool of First Edition Voyager Class Bulkhead)

Your bargaining posture is highly dubious. Proceed on your way to oblivion. This item has been canceled, with no current plans for release.

Brawn was intended as part of the GDO lineup. The newly created head sculpt would later be used by TakaraTomy for their version of Brawn released under the Cloud line.

Leader Class

• Ironhide (redeco of Dark of the Moon Ironhide)
• Starscream (redeco of Hunt for the Decepticons Starscream)

The Leader Class figures were only released in Generations packaging in Hasbro's Asian markets. While their United States releases were canceled, they were released in Canada, albeit in bilingual Dark of the Moon packaging with additional Movie Trilogy Series labels for whatever reason.

Phase 2: Fall of Cybertron and Thrilling 30 (2012-2014)

Fall of Cybertron (2012-2013)

After a six-month hiatus, the Generations line was relaunched mid-2012, starting out the Fall of Cybertron toyline with eight Deluxe Class figures. The line continued into 2013, with Legends and Voyager Classes being introduced too. Unlike the previous Legends Class, now absorbed into Cyberverse under the name 'Legion Class', these new products consisted of two-packs of data disc Deployer figures designed to interact with the Voyager Class Soundwave mold.

Thrilling 30 (2013-2014)

In mid-2013, Generations was rebranded to become part of Hasbro's Thrilling 30 anniversary campaign, which saw the line return to the Classics/Universe-style updates of older characters. This refresh was notable for introducing close ties with IDW Publishing's Transformers material – many toys were based on designs from comics, and every Deluxe figure was packaged with a comic issue. The format of Legends Class was also changed, now including a vaguely Cyberverse Commander-sized figure with a smaller, triple-changing partner. Thrilling 30 saw two new size classes introduced to the line – 2013 featured the huge Titan Class Metroplex figure, whilst 2014 debuted Leader Class with Jetfire.

For 2013, toys featured packaging art by Clayton Crain and the Deluxe pack-in comics were Spotlight issues. Continuing into 2014, the included issues tied into the "Dark Cybertron" story and Phil Jimenez, who helped plan and draw that event, took over package art duties.

• Metroplex (Asian version)

This version of Metroplex was exclusive to Animation-Comic-Game Hong Kong and is basically a slightly altered version of the Hasbro Toy Shop/San Diego Comic Con version, down to nearly identical packaging. The twelve miniature figures are cast in differently colored plastic.

  • Combat Hero Optimus Prime (redeco of Reveal the Shield Deluxe Class Optimus Prime)
  • Autobot Jazz (redeco of Deluxe Class Reveal the Shield Special Ops Jazz)

The Ultimate Gift Set was released at general retail in Hasbro's Asian markets, and was also made available as a "shared exclusive" between various online retailers in the United States, including the online storefronts of major retailers such as Walmart and Toys"R"Us).

Phase 3: Combiner Wars (2015–)

For 2015, the line was given another subline imprint titled Combiner Wars, which saw Deluxe, Voyager and some Legends figures able to form combiner robots. The format for Legends Class was changed once again, dropping the small partner figures of the Thrilling 30 line.

The packaging of IDW comic books with US Deluxes continued, whilst Legends, Voyagers and non-US Deluxes gained collector cards featuring art from the Transformers Legends mobile game. However, due to production schedule problems, Deluxe wave 1's initial US release featured the collector cards. Along with the concurrently released Robots in Disguise line, Combiner Wars also heralded the return of multilingual packaging to the United States market, now in English, French, Spanish and Portuguese. The sole exception to this was the Deluxe figures packaged with comic books, which retained monolingual packaging.

In 2015, all Generations assortments were renumbered, so wave numbers are reset to one.

Japan

TakaraTomy initially had Transformers United as their counterpart to the first phase of the Generations line. In 2012, with the revival of the Hasbro Generations line, TakaraTomy decided to use the same name for their successor to the United toyline. Similarly to United, many of the figures have been given "premium" paint jobs, being coated in shiny paint and featuring numerous additional paint details. Japanese Generations ended roughly halfway through the Hasbro's Thrilling 30 assortment, and subsequent Generations molds were released in Japan under a new banner, Transformers Legends.

Notes

I don't belong here, bitches!

• During 2010, clicking "War for Cybertron Toys" on Hasbro's War For Cybertron web page actually brought up the whole Generations toy line. Looking for War for Cybertron toys? Here you go.
• Since the toys released during the first phase of the Generations toy line were all Deluxe-sized, the difficulty level bar on the front side of the packaging (which indicates how hard it is to convert a toy from mode to mode) denoted 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 2010–2011 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 continuity family counterparts in Japan. The waves from 2012 and onward were released under the Generations banner in Japan as well.
• As the toy list in the article above shows, the 2012-onwards figures were numbered in sequence for each size class assortment separately. However, the Combaticon and Wrecker combiner teams were also additionally numbered as members of their respective teams, and the sequences for those two separate sets of numbers are completely inconsistent with each other: For the Combaticons, team members 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 correspond with Deluxe Class Series 1 figures #004, #008, #006, #005 and #007, respectively; and for the Wreckers, team members 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 correspond with Deluxe Class Series 1 figures #014, #016, #018, #017 and #015, respectively. The only consistent system is that each sculpt is given the same number as a team member between both sets.
• In a frankly inexplicable turn of events, the existence of Huffer and the name of Blackjack in the Combiner Wars toyline were first revealed by a stock photo of Menasor released during San Diego Comic-Con 2014. What appeared to be a plain white background was, with color correction, revealed as a Mac OS screenshot displaying filenames for those two characters. Blackjack could easily be identified as the unnamed black-and-purple car revealed at SDCC, whilst Huffer's toy was later announced at New York Comic Con.
• The limb robots substituted out of Combiner Wars Superion, Menasor and Defensor, namely Slingshot, Wildrider and Groove, also happen to be the same members whose Kre-O incarnations were sold separately from their teams. Coincidence? Probably.
