Transformers [wiki] 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 an intelligent machine that is 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.
This is a collection of classic Transformers toy commercials all dubbed in Japanese (around 7 minutes long). Most excellent!

Question > Can anyone translate some of the Japanese in the ads? DÅmo arigatÅ [wiki] !
Well "Convoy" refers to Prime. "Cybertron" and "Destron" refer to the Autobots and the Decepticons. That's all I got..

they're not (all) "dubbed" in japanese -- the transformers toys were originally made in japan by takara and later licensed by kenner/hasbro.
