Transformers
Transformers is the name of a line of toys produced largely by Takara and sold outside of Japan by Hasbro from 1984 onwards. A Transformer is a sentient machine that's able to "transform," reconfiguring itself into a common and innocuous form, such as a car, aircraft, or animal. The taglines "More Than Meets the Eye" and "Robots in Disguise" reflect this ability.
There have also been a number of spin-offs based on the toys, including a Marvel comic book series, an animated television series that began airing in 1984, and a feature-length movie, The Transformers: The Movie. A live-action film directed by Michael Bay was positioned as a major blockbuster in 2007, and 2009 saw the release of a sequel, Transformers Revenge of the Fallen.
