Notes
- In real life, South Korea has notably had one variant toyline unique to itself, the Car Bot line.
- South Korea is also known for its abysmal toy distribution when it comes to Transformers: most retailers refuse to stock anything that isn't Movie-related, to the chagrin of more G1-minded fans. This also causes large amounts of shelfwarmers, which contribute to the notion that "Transformers toys don't sell" and worsen the cycle.
- In recent years, South Korea has made their own transforming robot toylines, with accompanying cartoons and merchandise: prominently Young Toys's Tobot , and Sonokong's Hello Carbot.
