Premise. The premise behind the Transformers toy line is that an individual toy's parts can be shifted about to change it from a vehicle, a device, or an animal, to a robot action figure and back again.

Hasbro Transformers is a media franchise produced by American toy company Hasbro and Japanese toy company Takara Tomy.

Production/Manufacturing Though the toys are designed in America and Japan through a collaborative process between Takara and Hasbro, most are manufactured in places like China. The production process is complex and expensive.

Modern Transformers prototypes are 3D-printed and once they're made, they undergo extensive testing by a master model maker. It is their job to play around with the model and check for jerky joints or loose pieces. The entire 3D design is then tweaked to perfection.

Different parts of an electrical transformer are made of different materials. Windings are usually made of copper or aluminum, while the laminations are made of steel, often silicon steel. Cores can also be made of iron, amorphous metals, and ferrite ceramics, among others.

There are four primary parts to the basic transformer. The parts include the Input Connection, the Output Connection, the Windings or Coils and the Core. Input Connections - The input side of a transformer is called the primary side because the main electrical power to be changed is connected at this point.

China Hasbro currently outsources about two-thirds of its manufacturing to companies in China. So the move into media could prove prescient. The streaming wars are picking up and players like Netflix, Hulu and Disney+ are all on the hunt for fresh properties.

The actual figure is molded from a harder plastic resin such as acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS). Softer plastics and nylon may be used for costume components including body suits, capes, and face masks. Acrylic paints of various colors may be used to decorate the figure.

Generation One, originally known simply as “The Transformers” is the first series of Transformers. In the U.S., the toyline ran from 1984-1990; in Europe, from 1985-1993 (except the U.K. which saw limited 1984 releases), and in Japan from 1985-1992 (with many variations from the other regions.)

In the simplest of terms, a transformer is an electrical device that takes a given input voltage and changes it to a different output voltage. This change can either be an increase or a decrease in voltage.

Types of Transformers

• Power Transformers. A power transformer transfers electricity between a generator and the distribution primary circuits.
• Autotransformers. Now, let's make things even more complicated.
• Generator Step-Up Transformers. Moving right along to GSUs or generator step-up transformers.
• Auxiliary Transformers.

A transformer is a device used in the power transmission of electric energy. The transmission current is AC. It is commonly used to increase or decrease the supply voltage without a change in the frequency of AC between circuits.
