The information on this page has been dynamically generated by poking through the database. Because the toy database is incomplete, you'd have to be nuts to take this information too seriously. So please, enjoy it only in the spirit of good fun, don't use it to write any book reports, and don't send me angry emails telling me I don't know what I'm talking about. No arguments, there! That said, the best way to improve the fidelity of the information presented here is to send me hi-res scans of faction symbols that you don't see here, and to roll up your sleeves and help me and the other no-life'ers fill in the gaps in the figure database.
Decepticon
Mmm, chrome so shiny you want to rub it with a diaper and tell the neighborhood kids to stay the heck away from it. If nothing else, those early Decepticons really knew how to pile on the bling. First seen: Jan 1, 1984
Autobot
Before Takara/Hasbro really started getting fancy with faction symbols, the symbols were included as part of the main "Transformers" logo. First seen: Jan 1, 1984
Autobot
The grand-daddy of all Autobot faction symbols. While the expression is arguably more glum than "heroic", the shiny faux-chrome styling that was all the rage in the 80's is in full splendor. First seen: Jan 1, 1985

Decepticon
Somewhat underplayed on the packaging it was printed on, this symbol was generally "italicized", and tucked away up by the word "Decepticon". First seen: Jan 1, 1990
Decepticon
Generation 2 Decepticon First seen: Jan 1, 1992
Autobot
Which one of these is not like the others? I'm looking at YOU, Generation 2 Autobot symbol. The nifty chrome is gone, cast aside in favor of modest yellow and orange. First seen: Jan 1, 1992
