The lack of lego in Transformers :(

Do you collect other toys besides Transformers? Maybe you've got a Masters of the Universe collection you'd like to show off, or maybe you like Thundercats, Voltron, G.I.Joe, Power Rangers, Star Wars, Wrestling, or any of the various comic book toy lines. Please keep the discussions here to non-Transformers toy lines.

The lack of lego in Transformers :(

Postby david1887 » Wed Nov 25, 2020 7:40 am

Good morning everyone! I would like to know why Transformer does not have as much range in Lego as other sagas of equal success, such as Harry Potter (see the catalog
here ) and I would also like to know if there is news that there will be new Lego catalogs for Transformers. I'm a Transformer collector and truly passionate about creating with lego. a greeting

Motto: "The only good is knowledge, and the only evil is ignorance."
If I'm to wager a guess, it's not really knowing how to properly approach the construction of such sets. If the sets are made to transform without disassembly, you'd easily reach the size and complexity of certain Technic sets for 16 and up, completely missing the main target group of the Transformers franchise.

That's not to say there haven't been attempts, all the way back in 2002 with Built to Rule! It's like Lego, the Transformers side had the main gimmick of converting "Trans Skeletons". That FLOPPED big time. Then came Kre-O which was more traditional with sets that had two main builds (Robot and Vehicle), plus its biggest draw, mini-figures or "Kreons". Later came standalone sets with a single build (think of them as expansions) and "Micro Changers", Kreons with two builds, figure and "vehicle", as odd as it sounds.

Built to Rule! and Kre-O on TFWiki.
The resident Rewind... well, half of one :lol:
