The Transformers Collection
Transformers Collection (also known as T/F Collection or TFC), is Takara's series of Generation One reissues. Each toy is housed inside a "book-box"-style package that opens just like a book, complete with a small booklet containing profiles of the reissued character and a couple of random characters, episodes of the cartoon and a small portion of the Japanese catalogue.
Some figures combine accessories from different versions of the toys. So far, twenty-one sets have been reissued. Many of these releases have been accompanied by redecoes exclusive to Takara's e-Hobby online service, as well as other Transformers reissues not part of the Collection line. The line went on hiatus while the 2007 movie was being made and no figures have since been released from this line. It's likely been replaced by the Transformers Encore line.
The series (up to TFC-18) is showcased in the "Transformers: Binaltech & TF Collection Complete Guide" coffee table book, published in 2005.
