The War for Cybertron Earthrise Bluestreak is based on the chatty Generation One Autobot gunner who appeared in the first set of Transformers released in 1984.

Wheeljack from Transformers Prime is my favourite iteration on the character

The trend with the Transformers Prime has been to move away from building completely functional robots hidden by massive plates and shells that encapsulate the robots when they are transformed in their alt/vehicular mode

If Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen has done its job correctly, there’s a good chance you and/or your children will come out of the theater with the urge to buy some plastic transforming robots

Similar to Binaltech, Alternity will feature highly detailed realistic cars loaded with die-cast metal and a great attention to detail for the more critical toy collector

Octane, the Decepticon with a bounty on his head, returns in 2008 after more than a 20 year absence. However, he's now called Tankor.
June 17, 2008 - 06:27
After some uncertainty, the Transformers Binaltech action figure line back, or is it?

Hot off the shelves and cute as buttons.

Just in time for the Transformers' movie, Hasbro is launching a multitude of products to coincide with the first live action film about the transforming alien robots.

This trickster robot is more than meets the eye.

The 20th Anniversary DVD Edition Optimus Prime is a recast of the popular Optimus Prime Masterpiece action figure released in 2003. This version, however, has garnered the scorn of Transformers action figure collectors. It seems like Hasbro's "savvy" marketing team has gone too far this time.

Meister is the name Autobot Jazz inherited after Hasbro lost the trademark. But Transformers' collectors will always call him Jazz, no matter how he looks or what he's called. Style can't go wrong!

Mirage's Robot body has odd appendages hanging all over. But his car mode is sleek and great looking. He'll remain a car from now on!

This long forgotten Autobot makes a brilliant return as a straight repaint of the Prowl Alternator Transformer.

In the years since the Alternator’s line started, there have been several rumours about characters making their way into existing cars.

Smokescreen is awesome. He reminds me a lot of the Car Brothers from Car Robots (Robots in Disguise).

Two weeks ago, Mazda USA took the Transformers' world by storm by unveiling a nameless Autobot based on a Mazda RX-8 car at the Detroit Auto Show.

It's surprising to say, but I've only discovered this line this week.
