Transformers: Platinum Edition

Transformers: Platinum Editionis a collector-oriented toyline which ran from2013to2017.It is composed entirely ofretoolsandredecosof existing molds, which are presented in premium packaging. It can be considered a spiritual successor to thePremium Seriessubline imprintof the2007Transformersmovie toy line.

In 2014, it got absorbed into theAge of Extinctionline, and in the process dropped its own unique packaging designs as well as its own logo in favor of the uniformAge of Extinctionpackaging design, reducing the title "Platinum Edition" to a small line in neutral text above the toys' names. In 2015, the same formula was continued under theGenerationsline.

ThePlatinum Editionbranding seems to have been replaced by theTransformers Tributebranding in2017for the tenth anniversary of thelive-action film series.Subsequently,Generations Selectstook up the niche of unusual redecoes from Hasbro.

Notes

• The 2012Dark of the MoonUltimate Optimus Prime: Year of the Dragon Editionpresaged the coming of the annualPlatinum EditionNew Years releases, but fits with them thematically.
• TheGenerationsShattered GlassOptimus Primeredeco ofMasterpieceMP-10 Convoy/Optimus Prime,released through Hasbro's Asian division in 2016, sports the same packaging design as the 2015-2016Generations-brandedPlatinum Editionreleases (with several design elements otherwise unique toPlatinumpackaging from that era), but doesn't feature a "Platinum Edition"branding.
