I look back at my childhood and remember our family not having much money. My father was a teacher in an inner city school we didn't go on holidays much and he had to use public transport a lot. But!! But!! I know remember the optimus prime figure. The portable laboratory looks very familiar. Did I have it or did my neighbour have it? Either way I feel much guilt, as it was the most expensive autobot figurine.

I met Peter Cullen (voice of optimus) got a photo with him & his autograph, and I got the Tramsformers: The Movie soundtrack signed by Stan Bush childhood dreams = fulfilled.

Soundwave will always be one of the greatest designed toys of all time. The ingenuity and attention to detail. To have the mechanism to eject cassettes. How majestic he looks transformed and the compact sleek look of the cassette player. Proud to have owned him and played with him in my childhood.

I’m 19, and even though I wasn’t born in the 80s and grew into the 2000s instead, I remember watching the g1 cartoons on vhs tapes I bought from the flea market as a kid, and remembering how strong the transformers cartoon was from their personality to designs. I continue collecting transformers to this day and realized how much of a impact it has on me and why it motivates me into drawing and wanting to design videos games! And dude seriously!

My mother got me Skywarp for Christmas in 84 played for hours, absolutely loved it.

So glad I was a kid in 1984 when G1 Transformers were all the rage. For x-mas of that year, I got Huffer, Cliffjumper and Brawn, and it started a lifetime obsession with the toy line. I would also race home from school to watch the cartoon, and I even had a few issues of the comic book. Transformers were definitely a very iconic part of my youth, and one that I very much cherish.

I remember my first Transformer, Gobots were huge and that's what I wanted. I was hoping for Cy-kill, but ended up with Sunstreaker instead. I hadn't heard of Transformers at that time. I was still very grateful for my gift and quickly began to love it! My new Sunstreaker towered over the other kids puny Gobots, even though they ridiculed me for not having a then popular gobot. And then began my love for this franchise!

Transformers is a franchise that works well with a Multiverse style approach to it. while other series like Star Wars, Star Trek, and Halo have to rely on a set storyline, the advantage Transformers has is that Hasbro can experiment with many variations n the line to give us cool new spins on the characters we love or adding in new lore to the story to make it good.

My first TF was Brawn, always have had a soft spot for the tough talking bruiser. However my favorite G1, wave 1 toy was Prowl. He just worked aesthetically for me, a cool sleek cop car, armed with incendiary rockets and acid pellet gun in robot mode. I've also always had an affinity for "smart" characters, and while Jetfire, Perceptor, and Brainstorm aren't slouches, loved Prowl's cool logic and tactical mind.

Good point, Prowl didn't get featured enough in the G1 cartoon. I think his biggest role was in the episode where Chip remote controls him? And that was just a part of the episode. Like Jazz, I wish they had given him a whole episode to himself like The Girl Who Loved Powerglide or Changing Gears.

Like you, River-Run!, Optimus Prime became an important figure in my life. As the leader of the autobots he taught us valuable lessons that helped mold the adults we grew to be. I know several like-minded individuals that will proclaim him to be there favorite, some aren't even fans of the toys but of the cartoons. I have what I call the 'Hall of Primes' (inspired by a scene from the series) that contains a dozen variations of Optimus as well as other characters such as Lio Convoy, Star-Saber, and even Rodimus. They rest atop my book shelf and watch over everything.

Excellent point about the price tiers, which is very intelligent in sales. One additional thing to note despite the tiers is how incredibly hard these ALL could be to find in stores, they would fly off the shelves. Never saw the mid-tiers in stores, less Ironhide, but got lucky with Optimus after the folks called daily for him in Christmas ‘84 (‘85?). Nabbed the last one. And not to mention this was also before modern store-brawling, in which case they never would’ve gone.

Excellent video and eloquently narrated! I also appreciate how you “play” with the figures. You should be producing and directing toy commercials. Keep up the great work!

Absolutely amazing video Michael! So many great memories brought back from when I was a kid when the Transformers first came out. I was in awe then, and as an adult I still am. I sure do love those robots in disguise! I remember getting Optimus Prime for Christmas in 1984, and thinking he was the coolest thing ever. 34 years later and I'm still a huge fan of Optimus, and everything he stands for. Thanks for the trip down memory lane brother. You sure know how to bring out the kid in me! Oh...one more thing...that skit had me rolling!!! 😂 Keep up the amazing work. Every day you remind me of why you, and your channel are so important to myself and people like me.

i LOVE THIS. That first year, it all felt like a revolution! I collected those first four issues, bi-monthly, in complete suspense. I also was blessed with some knock-offs to go with the six minis I owned- it was the later G1s, where I got some jets, some bigger cars. I loved every kind of robot then. I enjoyed the stealth and strategy, as well as reading every single bio card down at my Paw Paw's hardware/ variety store in Shannon, GA. He-Man was also big still that year, too. I even made my own cardboard Trailbreaker in fall '85.

Despite having watched your videos for years I never subscribe but after this video I would be doing myself a disservice if I didn't. Extremely well done. I'd say the quality of this video is on par with the netflix show "the toys that made us" in spite of the limited resources at your disposal. Loved the humour, it was just the right amount for me.

Man, Just watching these videos you post up, brings me to my childhood! Action figures today aren’t what they use to be.

You really put a lot of quality work into these videos! They are entertaining and enjoyable, but also seem to be jam packed with a tremendous amount of behind the scenes effort. And you even make the toys look fun to play with, while simultaneously looking like beautiful works of art.

I took my megatron to school with me when I was in first grade. Teacher freaked out when I pulled it out of my bag. Parents got called to come pick it up.

Soundwave’s weapons were his batteries????? I had NO IDEA!!!!! I always wondered why his back opened up.

6 months later, this is due for another view. Thanks once again Michael Mercy for such a wicked video (804,456)

Transformers were my childhood. You bought me one & I left you alone for the rest of the day.

I remember my Christmas that year. I was able to pick out a few of my gifts, so my mom took me to Toys R Us (R.I.P.) and I scanned the aisles up and down for the coolest thing around. There were entire shelves full of Go-bots and Transformers. I was so distraught, I couldn't decide which to go with!! Ultimately the better figures one out due to their colorful packaging and artwork and their compelling forms. My first 5 Transformers toys were Optimus Prime, Sunstreaker, Ironhide, Skywarp, and Soundwave (chosen because he's basically a two-fer with buzzsaw. I passed on Megatron only because I wasn't so sure about having a gun-like toy. I was given the option of opening a gift 3 days early....so of course I chose the biggest, Optimus Prime!! I am 45 years old and now have well over 100 figures from various series and still collect them to this day, though not nearly as voraciously as my youth. I envy you, Mr. Mercy, as I have no place to display my massive collection so the large majority of them are in boxes in a storage unit. Thank you for this video (I'm only just discovering it), and for bringing me back to a simpler and happier period of time.

Soundwave, Megatron, and Optimus. Incredible toys, never topped for the rest of the line.

My parents were so good to me. I just realized I had every single transformer that came out. Including masters of the universe and Legos and every other Kool. 80s toys ate the best

Can you make a transformers history of both 1985 and 1986.

This was a glorious time to be a kid.

Just want to mention how cool it was that Shockwave could light up and had different firing modes as a gun, and how Bumblebee could be wound up and would go on his own. Loved these toys! haha

My favorite toys were The Transformers. I consider myself lucky to have been a kid in that era and that my parents every so often would buy me a Transformer. Sometimes they wouldn't get me the Autobot/Decepticon versions, but some different version with different colors that came from Japan or some other asian country, they probably got those because they were cheaper but I didn't mind because they still made the effort to get them for me and we weren't rich. But they did get me many of the originals including Optimus Prime and Soundwave with all the tapes, those two were my favorites.

My 5 year old found a lot of my old transformers in my old room at my parents. I lost a lot of the pieces which I regret now, but I like to sit down with him and watch these videos so he can see how the toys looked and we will literally talk for hours about the toys I had and how I played with them

In 1984 the 7-year old me had Megatron in my carry on bag when we were flying down to Disneyworld in Florida. Naturally I tripped the airport x-ray, but just by demonstrating to the guards that it was a toy that turned into a robot we were allowed to board and continue our trip.

One interesting thing about Gears is that he was voiced by Don Messick, who also voiced Papa Smurf, another character with blue and red colors.
