Transformers United
Transformers United (トランスフォーマー ユナイテッド) is a Japanese TakaraTomy toyline comprising redecos from Hasbro's Classics, 2010 Transformers, and Generations toylines. Presently, its focus is set to expand a little in 2012, as it becomes something of a dumping ground for molds from the Unicron Trilogy and the Beast Wars 10th Anniversary line which have never previously been released by Takara. Much like TakaraTomy's release of the Transformers Animated toyline, some of these Japanese versions have glossy metallic paint jobs. As a continuation of a marketing strategy introduced during the 2007 live-action movie toyline, most of the characters retain their American names.
Fiction
- A comic series in Million Publishing's latest Transformers Generations volumes, including "A New Battle!" and "The Fierce Fighting on Planet Nebulos".
- Macrocosmic Seekers, a series of prose stories taking place during Transformers 2010.
- An extended toy commercial giving descriptions of all the first-wave characters.[1] Though light on continuity, it does show the War-for-Cybertron-based toys trans-scanning into Generation-1-based modern Earth forms, a connection not made explicit in any other United fiction.
