The reason Optimus doesn't speak about his son involves a party, a lot of energon, and a combiner's foot. Don't ask.

Smallest Transforming Transformers (極小変形 トランスフォーマー Kyokushō Henkei Transformers), erroneously called "World's Smallest Transformers" or "WSTFs" by fans, was a line created by Takara in 2003. It consisted of Generation 1 characters in the smallest transformable form possible. The figures were blindpacked.

Unreleased and miscellaneous

  • Hot Rodimus was later re-released as a Toys'R'Us exclusive with purchases of THS-02 Convoy.
  • Trade show images originally suggested a third wave of Smallest Transforming Transformers, which would have added the then-unreleased Hot Rodimus, as well as still-unreleased versions of Skids, Tracks, and Megatron's stock and silencer accessories. Skids and Tracks were reportedly unproduced for cost reasons.[1]
  • Only the items listed here are official Smallest Transforming Transformers toys. Multiple fan-groups have produced similar-scaled items based on old Transformers toys, but they are all unlicensed, unofficial product.
