MELBOURNE, Tuesday, 5th June 2007 – The original and the best, relive the adventure this June, before seeing Transformers on the big screen!

TRANSFORMERS GENERATION 1 – COMPLETE COLLECTION
MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE!
The earth is a battleground. An age-old struggle for control of the universe is taking place. Ordinary looking planes, cars and vehicles suddenly transform into mighty robots that wage war with the advanced armoury of super technology. An erupting volcano revives the dormant cargo of a space ship that crashed four million years ago. Two types of transformers emerge: the power-hungry, evil Decepticons and the Autobots who, with help from human allies, must use courage and ingenuity to defeat the Decepticons.

The epic struggle of the Autobots & Decepticons has stayed popular for over 20 years, from Cybertron to Earth & back again. For the first time, every episode of the “Robots in Disguise” is available together in this monster 17-disc complete set – with limited edition, authentic retro Generation 1 packaging!
