Transformers Breakdown 8cm Pre-owned Figure

In 1983, the first Transformers toys were released in North America, based on two other Japanese toy lines: Microman and Diaclone. Hasbro commissioned comic book writers Jim Shooter and Denny O'Neil to create the fictional Transformers universe. Subsequently, Bob Budiansky, another comic-book writer, created most of the Transformers, giving them names and character profiles. A comic book, published by Marvel Comics, was then released.

A cartoon was produced during the same period by Marvel Productions. It was broadcast and rebroadcast from 1985 to 1989, first on Canal+ and then on Antenne 2 in Récré A2. Very rare reruns took place on La Cinq in the early 1990s.

The series came to two different conclusions: it ended with a season 4 in America and Europe, but continued in Japan, regardless of season 4, with the series Transformers: The Headmasters, which was followed by two other series in this continuity: Transformers: Masterforce and Transformers: Victory, as well as an OVA called Transformers: Zone.
