The new series, "Transformers Animated" debuted on Cartoon Network the day after Christmas (2007) with episode 1 airing Jan 5. The look and feel of Transformers Animated (shows and toys) knocked fans socks off! Perhaps because it was so radically different from what fans had grown accustomed to, from the, "real" look from the movie, many fans were skeptical at first. But it didn't take long and the vast majority of fans were quickly won over! In what has all the potential to be considered one of the best Transformers television series of all time, we look forward to all that is to come! Here they are. The toys of Transformers: Animated. |

What a shame, just when this toy line was hitting its stride Hasbro has announced that it is being discontinued. I say it's a shame because the die-cast metal parts and old fashioned transformation aesthetic work very well with for figures in the "War Within" series. Listed below are the last and only figures released this year. |

A great many other toy products grace the toy shelves in 2008 with the brand name, "TRANSFORMERS." If time allows, we may try to compile product lists for: *
Star Wars: Transformers In the meantime, you may wish to check elsewhere for info on these products as there are just so my other priorities for us here at Unicron.com! If there is someone out there who's willing to complete list of toys that came/are coming out in 2008, I'll update our checklists... If you have package art and a scanner, shoot us an e-mail with images and we'll be happy to incorporate into our database. Yeah, these are cool, but with so many other transformers toys out there, it's hard to keep up! |
