And thus the great cataloging of my collection continues.
Transformers Universe was… it was…. it was a bloody mess to be honest!
Starting out in 2003, it was intially a way to milk existing moulds. It took figures from G2, Beast Wars, Beast Machines and the Unicron Trilogy and released them as their original characters with new colour schemes, or else repainted them into different characters completely.
Then it moved on to new characters and toys, such as making Micromaster combiners out of classic teams, and limped along for several years, releasing a smattering of figures here and there, even pulling other toys under its umberella that really should be classified under different toylines such as figures from G1, Titanium, Robot Heroes and even Masterpiece.
Then in 2008 they revamped the line, with many new toys of existing G1 characters, picking up where the Classics line left off, making it quite popular until the line came to an end in 2010. Some of the figures were also released under the Takara banner Henkei! Henkei!
Toys and characters from almost every continuity, Micromasters, Targetmasters, Combiners, Autobots, Decepticons, Predacons, Maximals, Mini-Cons, Spychangers, repaints, retools – the line had everything while at the same time specializing in nothing, and making it damn hard to keep track of for collectors.
So check out what I deemed worthy to grab with my personal Transformers Universe collection below!
