Our yellow plastic will burn your eyes!

Rubiplas is a Venezuelan company that obtained the license to manufacture and market Transformers toys in Venezuela during Generation 1.

The original Rubiplas Transformers line was incredibly short-lived, consisting of only five of the six first-year Autobot Mini Vehicles. These toys were also considerably cheaper in production, often lacking paint operations, stickers, or chrome... but not consistently across individual releases. Some toys are very close to the Hasbro originals, and some are very, very not. Notably, the roster of five molds that they released - with the addition of Gears - are the same that'd be later made by Lynsa and sold in Chile and Peru.

Sometime later, Rubiplas returned to marketing Transformers by securing the license to import Hasbro and Takara toys into Venezuela.
