This is my third tribute to one of my favorite cartoons and toy´s. Transformers is the name of a line of toys produced largely by Takara and sold outside of Japan by Hasbro from 1984 onwards. Ho in the same year inpired a Marvel comic book series and the animated television series depicting a war between giant robots who could transform into vehicles, animals, and other objects.
Four million years ago, on a distant planet called Cybertron, life existed in the form of sentient robots which could think and feel, called Transformers. The race of Transformers was divided into two main clans. Autobots, led by Optimus Prime, wished for peaceful coxistence between everyone. Decepticons, under the command of Megatron, sought conflict and military conquest. Both sides were embroiled in an ages old war for supremacy. With both sides running low on energy, the Autobots, aboard the Ark, sought out a new source, but the Decepticons, aboard their space-cruiser Nemesis, ambushed them in hopes of gaining a decisive advantage. The ensuing space battle resulted in both the ships crash landing on a pre-historic Earth, the Ark crashing into the side of a dormant volcano, and the Nemesis crashing in a remote region of South America. Four million years passed while the Autobots and Decepticons lay dormant aboard the Ark. In the Earth year 1984, the volcano housing the Ark erupted, reawakening the ship's computer, Teletraan I, which then modified the Transformers so as to give them alternate modes that could blend in on Earth. The Autobots and Decepticons, now on Earth, continued their war more ferociously than ever. The Decepticons wished to drain Earth of all its resources, converting it into energon for their use, while the Autobots were committed to stopping them, and to protecting the human race.
I hope the fans like it.
