Thanks Michael I needed this today. I just found out my step mother is very sick and not expected to live long. She bought me my first transformer in 1984 and gave me a devastator set for christmas. I needed those memories today. You have a magical ability to bring me right back to being 8 years old and seeing these for the very first time.
Sorry to hear that Robert. Glad the video brought some positivity. 🙏
It was a great time to grow up in the 80s
Jetfire was the first Transformer I ever owned. Took me and my Dad a while to figure out how to transform him. Made a big impression when I brought him into class for show and tell.
That's the most epic Show and Tell I've heard so far..
That's the most epic Show and Tell I've heard so far..
Jetfire was my first G1 transformer
My first was predaking
My first was Cheetor from Beast Wars, which I also brought to kindergarten show and tell
Haha that censored part of the Japanese version of Shockwave totally cracked me up! Great video! Love your channel
I'll bet for 1986, the kid's gonna swap his father's camera with Reflector and have Galvatron stand-in for the gun.
Half right!
I love how you customized Red Alert with the red G2 head.
I love how you literally swatted the Insecticons with a fly swatter! XD
Poor Skids. So over looked, you even covered him in this video, but I totally didn't notice until I looked back and saw he was indeed present. Story of his life.
1985 is probably when Transformers G1 was at it's peak!
Agreed
Omega Supreme was one of the only ones that I kept from the clutches of my Mom’s yard sales
You are honestly the best when it comes to showing your collections and explaining the history behind them. Please keep up the good work. 😁👍🏾
Better than listening to my history teacher
Who noticed the other 1980s franchise crossover, when Buzz-Off from Masters of the Universe looked in on the Insecticons! 😂😂😀😀
I'm like halfway through season 2 and it's amazing, my dad showed me the G1 Transformers and my life has changed ever since
That was my dad, he introduced me to Transformers and since then I have loved this series
Excellent video! I didn't realize there were so many Autobots! I'd never even heard of those you could mail order!
dear god these videos make me so happy and calm
after feeling angry and pessimistic after watching the news
thank you Michael for being a great person
til all are one
I love your channel💕 I was 7 when Transformers came out and I was instantly hooked. I used to have almost all of these G1 Transformers. Nostalgic. Man where did the time go?😞
This was simply brilliant! The clarity of every single shot was impeccable. Each bot looked brand new like just out of a package. Now the wait begins for 1986 EDITION!👍👍
YESSSS!! Best year of the best toy line ever. 😍
Amazing work on this video....as always!
Thanks for making these great nostalgic videos Michael! I love your positive vibe and creativity in your videos!!!
Tracks, Jetfire, Beachcomber... and the cartoon, man! Now _this_ is a good year for the series.
1985 was a great year for Transformers with some new and fresh ideas. I loved Devastator and Astrotrain for the Decepticons. Then for the Autobots, it is Jetfire and Omega Supreme. It is hard to pass up a tank that doubles as a Christmas tree decoration.
I look forward to the video with the 3rd lineup of Transformers with Hot Rod/Rodimus Prime, Kup, Arcee, etc.
Great memories of 1985! I really enjoyed this video and being an adult Transformers fan.
Ha ha. How many times did Starscream get shot down in this video? I lost count as he seemed to be the butt of this joke. LOL
Amazing, high quality video. What a great 30 minute watch! I especially love the fine details of weaving the various soundtrack themes in the background. Adds such a charming touch to the narrative. Makes me feel like I'm walking through a Disney-like theme park/museum. Keep up the outstanding work!
Such a beautiful and comprehensive collection. Your video was hilarious and entertaining.
Thank you for your service in this excellent experience video. You are a historian of toy culture.
Wow. We 1980s kids are lucky to have Michael Mercy putting this stuff together. Nobody does a better job of capturing the magic that these things brought to our childhoods.
Great video!!! I am super impressed with this series of videos looking at the Transformers year by year. I wish you would do the same for Zoids. I owned both the Radio Shack Galactic Man and their version of the Zoid Mammoth. The problem with Galactic Man for me was after straightening out into gun mode, he would often go limp with the barrel slowly moving toward the ground, greatly reducing the threat level against evil siblings.
Excellent Video. Your dedication to this franchise is very much appreciated. Keep up the great work!
Enjoy your review, my nostalgia for gen one transformers will never get old. Great work!
I'm waiting for history of transformers: 1986 edition
And you also don't like sand
blastoise the turtle it’s rough, and corse, and gets every where
Hes also heard the tragedy of plagueis the wise
that was their best year, ultra magnus, galvatron, sky lynx, metroplex, hotrod, trypticon, and all the scramble combiners to name a few of the figures we got
@@masterfarr8265 which year was Scorponok released? Since he is a headmaster he belongs to season 3. Must have been 1987?
Wait a minute... "A mighty power that can save the day"? Next you're gonna tell me no one knows what lies behind the masquerade!
Thank you for putting out this video segment for the 1985 Transformers, Michael. I bought some of these in the forms of reissues a few years ago.
@Michael Mercy Thank you for compiling and producing this. I'm very aware of all the time and effort involved to produce and edit a video (Adobe Premiere Pro and photography time) like this. So I understand your blood, sweat and tears you put into each video you put out. This is the best and most comprehensive video for the subject. And thank you for not going over the top with the humor. Your level of humor is tolerable unlike a lot of other toy channels. Looking forward to seeing 1986 and 1987 Edition videos soon! (Transformers 1987 series is no joke to collect. lol The damn Targetmasters and Headmasters are not easy to find complete and near-mint/mint.)
Starscream always getting beaten up by autobots and Megatron. Anyways awesome video!
I love your passion for Transformers. You have a unique ability to educate your audience on Transformers History. God bless you Michael Mercy.
A great mix of all kinds of 1985 knowledge about the line.
I gotta say man , these videos your doing are absolutely great !! Thank you my friend !!
These "History of" videos are OUTSTANDING!!
Thanks again for bringing back some great memories!
Hey Michael, if you ever run out of show ideas, i think you can do a "versus" series. You can compare strengths and weaknesses of the combatants in a hypothetical battle. Win. lose. Draw. Add supporting battle footage from the cartoons and your own models. You will have more great content for us. Maybe take requests too. All the classics like metroplex vs tripticon, Megatron vs Optimus, bumblebee vs ravage(?).
That Blaster vs Soundwave fight was badass!
This video is incredibly well done. Thank you for all the time and effort you put into this. As of now I am loving the War for Cybertron Siege figures!
thank you for taking me back to my childhood, you do a great job my friend.
Amazing as always mate, I enjoyed this amount of nostalgia in 29 mins. Keep it up mate!
Your best video so far and it's so amazing! This and the following year were my favorites for TF releases. Can't wait for '86!
Hello Michael and thank you for sharing this with us and I have to admit that it is great to go down memory lane and remember when I was a kid with this great cartoon , but of course we are all kids at heart today and for ever and as always nerdmaste 😊
I’m 20 years old and I kinda was introduced to TF when the bay movies came out and went back and watched the G1 series. I try to steer clear of collecting these old 80s toy/cartoon franchises as I didn’t grow up in that era, but man this video just makes me realize how much I do love TF. Incredible video man! Can’t wait for the next one!
My favorite part of these reviews is the banter between Michael and the cartoon. Tremendous work!
Michael,
You did an amazing job on this segment!👍
This was my first one I have watched like this from you. I see a lot of work and effort went making this. I look forward to more videos. Thanks👍😁
Bill
This was awesome. Thanks for the time and effort you put into it!
This was a good year for me as a kid. My father bought me more than just 1 Transformer on the first year, Cliffjumper. Swoop and Kickback were the best
I forgot just how awesome these guys are! Shockwaves head reminds me of ROM the Space Knight.
What an amazing production! I'm enjoying this so much! Also love the mint condition of the toys! Thank you so much!
Well done! You really know your stuff, and how to bring me back to my favourite part of childhood. Thank you!
Thanks for the fun, entertaining, and informative shows.
I'm 45. Been educating my 23 year old girlfriend with your videos Michael. Thanks to you, she's coming along just fine. Peace from Perth.
Man these videos are so well edited. Keep going all the way until 2019
This was awesome, and very well edited. Thanks for doing this!
Oh my gosh, this was genuinely hilarious
Great job on the writing and production mate, can’t wait for more
You will also make the video of The History of Transformers 1986 edition?
Transformers e quadrinhos antigos he will sure as hell make it since why stop on just the second year of transformers
I agree
I also agree
Agree
Me too
I just wanted to let you know, I've been a huge fan for years and have seen most of your videos more then once. Love your collection, love your work to inform the masses of the greatest decade ever in toy and cartoon history, and the passion you have for it. Keep up the great work.
Thanks, glad to see you've enjoyed the videos. Cheers!
A really well-made and comprehensive video! Splendid! :)
Another great video! Thank you for all the hard work you put in.
this brings back appreciation and love 4 my parents in endless waves. damn
Man the war for cybertron line has really not only spoiled us, but let us see that going backwards really can be a huge step foreward, i love the new toys just as much as the g1, they have jsut the right amount of nostalgia in them that transends time
Amazing video as always Michael! Thank you for the stroll down memory lane. I'm glad I was the right age to enjoy the G1 series. Such awesome figures, and the animated series was the best!
Thank you for all you do for the collector community, and also the kid that is still alive and well in me.
Nerdmasté my brother!
Thanks Scott! Glad you enjoyed it. Till all are one! 😀
24:47 My Jetfire introduction was Armada, my best part of Jetfire was his Armada Voice by Scott McNeil, the Voice of Rattrap, Dinobot, Silverbolt and Waspinator in Beast Wars
Awesome video. Still have my transformers collection in storage. This takes me back. Wish I could display mine as hreat as you do.
Awesome video, going down memory lane!
Love your production/editing and how you tell the history of the figures... btw awesome collection. Keep up the great work and look fwd to the next one
Another great video!! Thanks Michael!
This was so fun to watch! Memories flooded through my mind. Thanks so much
WOW! My brother......................................you did an excellent job on this and the 1984 version! Man I watched both with a HUGE smile on my face the entire time because it really put me back to a time when life was "great" (as a 9/10 year old when there was nothing in life that mattered other than getting home from school in time to watch transformers).
Watching this also reminds me of a sad "situation". In 1994 when it was time for me to go to university I had a very nice transformer collection (which included my beloved Omega Supreme). My thought at the time was that I would keep them so that whenever I had a son, he will be able to see what his dad played with. Any way, after my first year of university, I came home to find that my mother "gave" my transformers away to a younger cousin. This person did not/could not appreciate MY TRANSFORMERS and he destroyed them!
It seriously took me about 5 years to forgive my mother for this! Man, this really hurt me.
But I am determined to get all of my transformers back and then some.
If that collection is solely yours, all I can say is WOW! Again man, great job on the video and thank you for taking me back to a time when life was simple and marvelous!
Congrats! This is a very well produced video...great and comprehensive compilation....thanks!
“I’ve got some Steely Dan to make it all go away...” 😂👍
Thank you Michael. This is my childhood. I had omega supreme, grimlock, skyfire and many more tf. I still collect tf to this day. Thanks again for the well thought out video.
Love the video man. You made me get back into transformers by getting the war for cybertron figures thank you.
I wish I had some '80's Transformers figures to this day. I never owned any growing up. The only Transformers figures that I had were the ones from the '90's and the 2000's because I was born in 1988 and grew up in the '90's and the 2000's.
great work on reliving my childhood. keep it coming plz ^_^
Great Video! brought back a lot of memories. I was an avid collector when I was a child and one day I came home and my mother gave away my toy collection. All the best toys I wonder who the lucked out on this treasure trove!
Really great video, just like the 1984 version. Thank you for doing it, brought back a lot of memories. Looking forward to the 1986 episode.
best transformers video for sure. thank you for this. so many unknown mail away transformers that era
Thank you for making this channel. It is and was my entire childhood.
Thanks, glad you enjoy it.
Fabulous video! I'd love another one which covers the Transformers from the Movie and the series that followed- Hot Rod/ Rodimus Prime, Galvatron, Kup, Arcee, etc.
Thanks for bringing back memories, once again! 🙂
I remember waiting so long for this and now it’s been three years since it released
Jetfire/Skyfire was by far my most favorite transformer. While visiting family (lived in Florida and visited Maryland) he ended up snapping in half. Still haven't gotten over that. :(
I love the first wave but, for being a follow up, 1985 is a great year for transformers! Love these series your doing with gi joe and transformers. Keep up the great work!!
Thanks Mike!
This was one of the funniest videos I have seen related to toys and my kids watch a lot of them. Great video!
the entire presentation was so wholesome, love it
Awesome video. It's funny, when I rekindled my love of G1 Transformers, I had NO MEMORY of Skids.
This video is awesome and hilarious! Also: I hope there will be a G1 Constructicon review and a G1 Megatron review. No rush! : )
Edit: thanks, Patrons!
Oh wow a muscle used to pump blood
brings sooo much memories!! the constructicons were and still my favorite!! your channel is so good
You should make a short transformer show with your action figures 😃 that would be so cool!!! Your good at this!!! No your great at this!!!!!!!!😃
Megs Productions does that with his Transformers figures....really good, too.
Thank you for this video. Everything cool about being a kid in 80's this brought so much memories.
Thank u Michael for this amazing video, I loved it!
This is one of my favorite channels
I got Jetfire for Christmas one year, it was boxing day before my Dad and his friend had finished 'discovering' how to make it transform. It'll always be Jetfire to me.
What great childhood companions Hasbro distributed. Thanks Hasbro for a awesome family for an only child of single mother. I was able to create personalities in my head that lead to great empathy and maturity. You the Man Michael Mercy Channel. Too bad the live actions didn't flesh out old friends at all really.
Thanks for the history lesson, Michael. Looking forward to 86
