These Diaclone commercials are amazing!

I love the way they have done the scenery to scale & you never once see a hand or anything..

Nice stop motion work and it really has atmosphere.

TF fans should be grateful some mad designer at Takara came up with the ideas of Transforming cars which lead to Hasbro working with Takara and market them as Transformers

Transformers like cartoons and toys was very big in Asia in the 1980's way before Transformers hit the screens in 1984

If you want to be truthful its the Japanese who should be getting credit for the success of Transformers

@DiscothecaImperialis I told you, that's not Clampdown. That's the Police Sunstreaker.

[DiscothecaImperialis]

And if you look carefully in the 0:22-0:25. you'll see "socket rails" and all of the toys (Sunstreaker, IronHide, Clampdown, Ratchet and Trailbreaker) attached to the rails, these are studio tools, and i'm not sure if these techniques still remain taught in Japan.

And at that time I believe no one noticed this studio tricks, and i don't think kids cares either. as long as the toy moves, it attracks them

meow~

@DiscothecaImperialis Clamp Down is the repaint of Red Alert. That red Honda City in this commercial is the red version of Crosscut.

[DiscothecaImperialis]

@ratchide The Japanese police Lambour is later relased as CLAMP DOWN, while the red Tracks became Road Rage

correct me if i'm wrong sir.

I had the Police and Red Sunstreaker models a few yeas back. Sold them for a hefty sum when I sold my collection on Ebay.
