The Transformers Facebook page announced the news: “So honored to share that the Transformers franchise has been inducted into the National Toy Hall of Fame, part of The Strong National Museum of Play!”
American toy manufacturer Hasbro introduced Transformers in 1984, after securing the rights to develop Diaclone and Micro Change toys from Japanese toy manufacturer Takara for the US market. Since then, it has spawned several animated series in the United States and Japan, several feature films, and numerous video games.
Along with Transformers, the National Toy Hall of Fame has also honored the My Little Pony toy line and the Phase 10 card game. My Little Pony, also developed by Hasbro, has had several animated adaptations since when introduced in 1981, most recently My Little Pony: Make Your Mark.
