I went on the IMDB Transformers review/rating...I LAUGHED...when I read
"original and not a knockoff of Hanna Barbera cartoons".
If I know my stuff, didn't GoBots come out first ??? I knew who Leader 1 was before Optimus. That does NOT mean, who I like more. But just mentioning, that 1 did start before the other.
Now you're going to make me check the 1st TF comic date
shareCan we like sticky this somehow just for the sake of saving future conversations?
Anyway, if you are talking about toys, Gobots came before Transformers.
If you are talking about the tv shows, Transformers came first.
If anybody would like to add any other medium to this list, please go ahead.
