At this point in the history of our species, there have been four Transformers movies, and only one of them was any good. It came out in 1986 and it ran under half an hour and it featured the voice of Orson Welles as an all-consuming extraterrestrial planetary demon-god himself.

As we have been inundated these past few months with comic book adaptations on the big screen I thought it was time to take a look back to some retro interpretations. But not just your typical video game spin offs. We’re talking the classic, corner store, arcade machine awesomeness!
