Yoke san helped design G1 Optimus Prime, Perceptor, Scourge and others, He shepherded the Transformers partnership between Takara/Tomy and Hasbro since 1983. He was there for every toy product and every piece of media since the beginning. He is a Transformers Hall of Famer but more than that he is an all around wonderful human being. If you have ever enjoyed Transformers please celebrate this man and his EPIC career, He is a giant in the Toy game.
