Toys
Generations Selects largely follows on from the precedent set by Fun Publications' Timelines toyline; featuring redecoes and retools of pre-existing War for Cybertron Trilogy or occasionally Prime Wars Trilogy molds, typically representing lesser-known Transformers characters. However, TakaraTomy's version of the toyline features high-budget retools reshelling large portions of the original toys (Power of the Primes Moonracer into Generations Selects (TakaraTomy) Tentakil replaced about 90% of the original mold) and also features a heavy focus on combiner robots, reusing the same connection joint system from Unite Warriors and the Prime Wars Trilogy.
