Stormrider wrote:The Samurai theme often perculates into the robot toys. Many of the masks and helmets of robots from the 1970s and 80s have styles that are similar to Samurai helmets and masks. This is not just a Takara/Transformers thing either. Many influences can be found in the Bandai line as well such as Soul of Chugokin. The swords and weapons are another influence.
Some good examples-
Cliffjumper's helmet
The crests on Silverstreak and Prowl's helmet
Prime's mask and crest
Mirage's helmet and face
Soundwave's helmet
Modern Transformers seemed to have less influence.
