The Ultimate Guide to Transformers

Even if you have only a surface- level familiarity with the Transformers franchise, you’ve likely heard one of these two taglines: “more than meets the eye” and “robots in disguise.” They sum up the franchise, they’re in the opening lyrics of the original 1980s animated series’ theme song and they’ve popped up consistently in promotional material for nearly every toy, TV series and film. But there’s another, lesser-known tagline that is more important to this moment in Transformers history: “Till all are one.” In the 1986 animated film, The Transformers: The Movie, Optimus Prime faintly utters these words with his dying breath. In 2021, the Netflix series Transformers: War for Cybertron: Kingdom combined Transformers and Beast Wars on the small screen. Now, the newest live-action film in the franchise, Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, will unite core characters on the big screen.
