The Transformers Masterpiece line took collectors of robots in disguise to new heights when it launched in 2003, redefining expectations for accuracy, engineering, and presentation.

In this episode, the team look back at the early years of Masterpiece, articulating the sense of wonder these releases inspired and discussing why they felt so significant at the time. From ambitious design choices to the growing pains of a line finding its identity, we explore how those first figures helped shape what Masterpiece would eventually become.

This episode may have taken longer to put together than the design of MP-5 Megatron — but some things are worth the wait.
