List of G1 Toys Not Released in UK ?

Postby Schwarma » Wed Jun 29, 2016 3:06 pm

Note to mods, I see that this is a huge forum, but have not yet found an introduce yourself forum and, right now, am here for a specific reason.

Long and the short of it is that I am a childhood G1 fan. Somewhere in my parent's garage is am extensive G1 collection going rotten that I can't get to because my father is an extreme hoarder.

But here's the thing. As a kid it always annoyed me that certain G1 toys weren't released in the UK, where I live and grew up. Such things that come to mind from childhood were toys that we'd see in cartoons but I couldn't find on the high street, like Swoop, Blaster, Perceptor, Sky Lynx, Omega Supreme and so on. This always irked me as a kid, so I'm thinking as an adult to maybe pick up re-issues or originals as available.

Now, I should be clear that I'm not an "overall" Transformers fan who follows every element, because I was just too old by the time of Beast Wars and can't honestly say the Michael Bay films have done a lot for me to come back. I'm really just G1. So I hope folks will forgive me, but this really is more a case of completing what the child I was wanted back in the day. So with that in mind if anyhow has a full list of what wasn't released in the UK for G1 along with any buying tips for reissues or box-less (or maybe even boxed) originals it'd be really great. I'd probably look at those characters that were in the 1986 movie and in the cartoon before, since that was my most intensive period of childhood fandom. So the aforementioned Swoop, Blaster, Perceptor come to mind, plus does anyone know about the three Deceptions who transformed into a camera in the early cartoons? Did that ever become a thing? Oh, and G1 Sharkticons?

Any starting guidance would be really appreciated. :)
