The Long Lasting Popularity Of Transformers Action Figures

The global recognition of Michael Bays Transformers and Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen movies, which opened in 2007 and 2009, have spawned a completely new line of Hasbro childrens toys and merchandise. In addition to the wide range of Transformers action figures, kids can now enjoy their favorite characters from both films and a few newcomers to the saga as well.

The New Guys

Obviously, traditional replicas of Optimus Prime, the leader of the Autobot Transformers, will continually be among Hasbros top selling Transformers toys. His nemesis Megatron, nevertheless, has an equal recognition amongst kids who want to play the bad guy every so often. Additionally, Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen introduced several new robots into the Transformers universe, the Voyagers.

The evil Decepticons now include figures like Grindor, an attack helicopter similar to the U.S. Armys Apache, only with a major bad mindset. Demolisher and Scavenger crush everything in their paths on the big screen, and the action figure's 2 big wheels do the same to Autobot toys for kids with a destructive, yet harmless imagination.

Probably, the most recognizable villain from Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen is the Fallen himself. With the six-piece super-robot, Devastator, both of these toys can offer hours of play for little boys who want to reenact their favorite action scenes from the Michael Bay movies.

The Old Dogs With New Tricks

While the brand new characters might be the coolest looking transformers, you cannot defeat the old dogs like Optimus Prime and Megatron. Fans of the 1980s Transformers television show will ponder what happened to Megatrons arm cannon. The latest version of the super villain has a retractable sword instead as does the new Optimus Prime, which comes with two flip-out swords instead of one.

Bumblebee was continually a popular character in the animation series, but the live-action film puts a new spin of this fun, lovable Transformer. Not only does Bumblebee protect Sam, the movies adolescent hero, the Transformer can change into a sleek, quick replica of Chevys latest Camaro model. In Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen, Bumblebees style and appeal reflect the heart and soul of the Camaro, and the bright yellow Bumblebee action figure holds the same appeal for children who wish to play the good guy.
