Transformers Sparkabots and Firecons commercial (UK, 1988)

A very short commercial from early 1988 for the Sparkabots (AKA Sparkler Mini-Bots) and Firecons. Normally I stick up for the smaller, cheaper G1 Transformers which are often derided, but I have to admit that the Firecons in particular are pretty crummy.

Note that the "Power to Surprise!" jingle used in the first half of 1988 for the Sparkabot / Seacons commercials was completely different to the one used in the US commercials at this time. When the American Powermasters and Pretenders commercials with the comic book motif were brought over later on, the US jingle replaced this one.
