Transformers G1 1984



An Introduction


For me it all started back in 1984, when I purchased my first Transformer Bumblebee (the yellow Voltswagon) for a grand sum of 1.59. The reason I purchased Bumblebee, is that I just seen an advert onTV for Transformers and wow, didn't they look amazing. Cars thattransformed in to robots and back, a voicestating "more than meets the eye".Then to see these allondisplay in the shop withthe pictureon the front andinformation on the back, about the robots. Forget Star Wars toys, Transformers were to be my new toys and what a good choice that turned out to be.


After Bumblebee I purchased the rest over the following weeks, these were the mini cars releasedthat year (Series One) and there were 7 in all. After then other Transformersreleased in that year were Optimus Prime, Megatron, Autobot Cars, Decepticon Plane, Soundwave and his cassettes.


This toy range ran from '84-'89
