Fiction
Toys
Generation 1 & 2
- Axelerators (1993/1994)
- Rapido
- Skram
- Turbofire
- Windbreaker
- The Axelerators were initially released in the European market in 1993, during the "transitional" time when the Transformers toys took on the new Generation 2 sigils, but the packaging lacked the "Generation 2" line-name. They were slightly recolored for American release the same year, with the transparent pink plastic of their windows and lightpipes being replaced with a smokey grey plastic that was much harder to see through. They were released again in the UK in 1994 in Generation 2 packaging, but the toys were identical to the original European-market release.
