This was the first year that Hasbro produced original designs for Transformers. Some of these might have been simpler than the original Diaclones, but these were designed to stand up to hard play, unlike certain Diaclones....

This was also the year the movie was shown to theaters, resulting in the deaths of many fan favorites such as Prowl and Wheeljack, not to mention Optimus Prime and Starscream, and the introduction of many new characters such as Ultra Magnus and Springer.


    This was the year I got my first Transformers also... Blurr, who is now a unofficial Headmaster and so not pictured, and Powerglide.

The Rest of 1986

The original Rampage and Hot Rod. This Hot Rod is actually the reissue, but it's close enough for me.


"Four million years ago creatures from the planet Cybertron crash-landed on Earth; mechanical creatures of great technical sophistication...."
