On a more personal note. As a kid growing up in the UK in the 80's and 90's. The thing that hooked me on Transformers were the Video Gems VHS tapes. In particular, the three episode tape of The Key To Vector Sigma and War Dawn. We had that tape from near it's release in 1986 until the turn of the century when we abandoned VHS for good. By that point, the tape was so degraded that the sound effects often overrode the dialogue. Even now, though the episodes are technically a two-parter and one standalone, it is hard not to think of them as a trilogy.
They are stories that have stuck with me for nearly 35 years of my life. Even in later years when my interests were elsewhere, it was always something I would come back to eventually. Leading to properly discovering the rest of the Sunbow/Marvel shows in the past two or three years, eventually leading to the creation of this website.
