Wrapping It Up

The first generation is a retroactive term for Transformers characters that appeared between 1984 and 1993. Transformers began with the 1980s Japanese toy lines Micro Change and Diaclone. They included robots capable of transforming into everyday vehicles, electronic objects or weapons. Hasbro bought the Micro Change and Diaclone toys and partnered with Takara. Marvel Comics was hired by Hasbro to create the backstory; Editor-in-chief Jim Shooter wrote a comprehensive story and commissioned writer Dennis O’Neil to create the characters. [5] Dissatisfied with O’Neil’s work (although O’Neil created the name “Optimus Prime”), Shooter chose Bob Budiansky to create the characters. was adapted in the Robotech franchise in North America). Kawamori came up with the idea of transforming mechs while working on the Diaclone and Macross franchises in the early 1980s (like VF1 Valkyrie in Macross and Robotech), with his Diaclone mechs later providing the basis for the transformers.
