Notably, several of the series (Transformers, G.I. Joe, ROM and Micronauts) began their time in comics as licensed (from Hasbro toy lines) books published by Marvel in the 1980s.
Transformers: The Last Knight opens in U.S. theaters on June 23, 2017, followed by the Bumblebee spinoff on June 8, 2018, and Transformers 6 on June 28, 2019.
The company just announced a crossover event titled “Revolution” that will tie its version of various Hasbro characters together into a single storyline.
The ultimate goal here is to create a “Hasbro Cinematic Universe” to rival the sprawling multi-film continuities established by DC and Marvel.
