| | #REDIRECT [[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)]] |
| '''''Transformers: G-2''''' was [[TakaraTomy|Takara]]'s first foray back into Transformers after ending the line in [[1992]] with ''[[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Operation Combination (franchise)|Operation Combination]]''. Available for only the latter half of [[1995]], ''G-2'' did not include any of the ''Generation 1'' molds (including the later European ones) which were in the American and European versions of ''Generation 2''. Only the more poseable toys newly created for the ''Generation 2'' lines were used. In addition, three of the [[Go-Bot (G2)|Go-Bot]]s would be released (with minor changes) late in the year to grocery and convenience stores through Takara's subsidiary [[Seven]]. The ''G-2'' toyline was not a major financial success for Takara. As a result, there would be another Transformers drought in Japan until the introduction of ''[[Beast Wars: Super Lifeform Transformers|Beast Wars]]'' in [[1997]].

| ==Notes==
| |
| *While most of the brand new ''Generation 2'' molds were released in ''G-2'', the first ''Generation 2'' Megatron, the [[Rotor Force]], the [[Autoroller]]s, and three of the six Go-Bots were all omitted. Megatron and the Autorollers would later see release in ''[[Beast Wars II: Super Lifeform Transformers (franchise)|Beast Wars II]]'' while the three Go-Bots would be used in ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 franchise)|Car Robots]]''.
| |
| *Due to being released through Seven, the Go-Bots did not receive [[List of Japanese ID numbers|ID numbers]] and were not part of the main ''G-2'' line. They were packaged on cards which were identical to the US versions on the front except for some Japanese language stickers. The backs, however, were re-done for Japanese market.
