Where did automorph start

I have heard rumor floating around that the automorph gimick goes back as far as transformer beast war or one of it many spin offs. I hope somone can answer where it got it start.

I guess the "Quick Attack Transforming Action" gimmick could be considered a sort of primitive form of Automorph. It was only used in the first series of Beast Wars and Machine Wars Basics. I can only guess that's the origin of the rumors you've heard but I doubt they're directly linked.

The first automorph figures I remember are G1 Topspin and Twintwist, as well as the G1 throttlebots.

When you twist his front wheels back, at their base is a shaped piece to push the arms out.
I that's not automorph I don't know what is.
