Movie Trilogy Series
The Movie Trilogy Series was originally (presumably) intended as a subline imprint of the Dark of the Moon toy line, but was later (arguably) turned into a separate toy line... of which ultimately only one toy was released.
History
Like pretty much every main toy line in the decade before it, the Dark of the Moon line was also intended by Hasbro to be extended by way of introducing a subline imprint as a way of "refreshing" the Dark of the Moon franchise, and keeping it "interesting" for retailers. At New York Comic-Con in November 2011, the then-upcoming seventh wave of Dark of the Moon Deluxe Class figures and a Hasbro release of the previously Japanese market-only Chronicle trailer for Deluxe Class Optimus Prime were announced under the "Movie Trilogy" moniker.[1]
