Japanese Generation 1 continuity
« Super-God Masterforce »

1998's Transformers: Super-God Masterforce was Takara's successor to the The Headmasters toyline. This was also the toyline where Takara began to change the direction of its Transformers line significantly away from Hasbro's.

Most of the molds used in Masterforce were released in Hasbro's line, but a great many Hasbro toys from this year were skipped altogether in Japan, including over half of the Pretenders. And many of the toys the two line did share had significant color differences, although it was a bit scattershot as to who got changed and who didn't. The Powermaster Optimus Prime toy was retooled to make new hero-team leader Super Ginrai toy, and a handful of new molds were released, including the gargantuan Overlord. Takara even took one last dip in the Micro Change well for a pseudo-role-play Transformer, alongside redeco/retoolings of the prior year's most massive toys.

Virtually all of the toys were also characterized very differently from Hasbro's story even if the toys themselves were identical, so even though the toys are identical, well, the characters are pretty much completely incompatible.

Post-Masterforce releases

Masterforce has been pretty light on the post-series remakes, and most of them have been of only two characters... and neither of them are who you would have thought they'd bring back a lot.
