It's our 75th episode AND our third anniversary, so we're going back to one of our favourite years of toys to celebrate! Despite not being as widely lauded as what came before it, 1988 was a crucial period of change for Transformers. With new gimmicks - Powermasters, Pretenders, Micromasters and more! - and a return-of-sorts to Earthbound vehicular forms, there's a lot to say about this one. Which is probably why we brought back Maz to help chat through it all then!
