After 38 years of waiting, it is hard to believe that the first Transformers movie for kids is finally here. The Transformers media franchise was first started in 1984 when the mecha toys from Japanese toy company Takara Tomy were introduced in the Western markets. What started as a toy line soon got its own animated television and comic book series, allowing the franchise to become a cultural phenomenon. Eventually, in 2007, the franchise reached the live-action storytelling medium when Michael Bay’s first Transformers movie premiered worldwide.
